Chapter 515: This is the only time between me and you
"You haven't said why you saved me yet." Dugu Liancheng felt that he should put the problem on the right track.
She wanted to see him suffer, so she could just stand by and watch. There was no need to untie his knot. If she didn't take action, he would probably be tortured to death. Since she didn't like him, why didn't she just make a decisive move?
By then, her family will be the only one in the entire harem, and she still holds the eldest prince's bargaining chip. As long as she is ambitious and intelligent, it is not impossible for her to control the government.
Even if there is another King Ling'an, it is impossible to escape Mu Ci's plan.
This woman was scheming and strategic, she could clearly kill him and replace him.
She is Mu Zhi's daughter, but she does not have Mu Zhi's ambition.
"Because you are a good emperor. There is a personal grudge between you and me, but if you die, the country may be in civil strife. Personal grudges become insignificant before big right and wrong." Mu Ci told the truth.
"So that's it." Dugu Liancheng didn't know whether to be relieved or disappointed.
She understands righteousness and is open-minded, which is the blessing of Daxia.
But he was still a little disappointed when he learned that she was only rescuing him because of the Great Xia Kingdom and not because she felt a little reluctant.
"Mu Ci, do you know that I am happy for you?" For a long time, Dugu Liancheng opened his lips with difficulty.
This was the only time in his life that he fell in love with a woman, but it ended up like this.
Mu Ci didn't expect that Dugu Liancheng would suddenly confess her love. She was stunned and didn't answer.
"You are a special being to me, so I can tolerate a lot of things from you. But you have finally touched my bottom line, and the relationship between me and you can only end here."
Dugu Liancheng stood up and looked down at Mu Ci from above: "You can make three requests."
He owed her a request that day, and he returned her three wishes.
"The fact that the Ai family planted the Soul-Eating Grass on you is just a matter of the Ai family alone. Sizhu and Yingchun don't know about it. I hope it won't affect the servants of Yong'an Palace. As for Yingchun, Sizhu and Feng Jiu, they will follow from now on.
Wu Jieyu, it can be regarded as the last thing that the Ai family can do for their master and servant." Mu Ci's first thought was of course the people closest to her.
"Correct." Dugu Liancheng responded calmly.
"Last time when the Ai family left the palace, they specifically told Mrs. Rongguo about the trouble the Ai family had caused. If you want to give the Ai family the death penalty, the Ai family hopes to hide it from Mrs. Rongguo and Captain Mu Du." Mu Ci said again.
Dugu Liancheng thought for a while and felt that this was not a difficult task, "Yes."
"One last thing, the Ai family hopes that the emperor will not anger Mrs. Rongguo and Captain Mu Du." Mu Ci finally said.
Dugu Liancheng felt that this was not difficult.
"As for Nian'er, he is your child, so the Ai family won't worry." Mu Ci fell silent after finishing what he wanted to say.
Dugu Liancheng looked at Mu Ci for a long time, thinking that she would show her death-free medal in the end.
"How you want to deal with the Ai family next is up to you." Mu Ci looked magnanimous.
Of course, now that she had taken that step, she had already prepared for the worst.
Whether it's death or relegation to the cold palace, she can accept it.
But she thought that she was still in control of everything for now.
Dugu Liancheng stared at Mu Ci intently. Even now, she has shown no signs of begging for mercy from him. She is still the thoughtful woman.
"You can move to Chenxiang Palace and I'll give you a ride." After Dugu Liancheng gave the order, he turned around first.
Sizhu and Yingchun, who were waiting not far away, had already burst into tears.
They knew that it was the emperor's greatest grace for the empress to move to Chenxiang Palace.
The two of them ignored their sadness and hurriedly returned to the main hall to pack their clothes for the empress.
"The Ai family alone cannot use so many things. You must remember what the Ai family told you before." Mu Ci called them to him and warned them softly.
"Can't my slave go to Chenxiang Palace with your Majesty?" Yingchun choked.
Mu Ci helped her wipe away her tears: "Have you forgotten what the Ai family told you? After the Ai family enters Chenxiang Palace, you can still take care of the Ai family outside. If you all go in and someone bullies the Ai family, who can help?
Aijia?”
"Then just leave Sizhu and Feng Jiu with Wu Jieyu, and I will go to Chenxiang Palace with the empress." Yingchun looked at Mu Ci eagerly.
"No. If you don't want to serve Wu Jieyu, then leave the palace. The Ai family won't keep you..."
Before Mu Ci finished speaking, Yingchun burst into tears and knelt down in front of her.
In the end, Yingchun compromised. She thought that the palace was the closest place to the empress, and she would not go anywhere except the palace.
Although the empress lives in Chenxiang Palace, she may not be able to come out after staying there for how many months like before?
At that time, the Queen Mother will still be the Queen Mother, and they can serve her again.
Soon, a strange scenery appeared in the palace.
A large group of people headed to Chenxiang Palace, and the leader was none other than the current Holy One.
Mu Ci saw many palace concubines stopping and watching. Compared to the last time she hurried into Chenxiang Palace, this time she had made sufficient preparations.
In addition, the emperor brought so many people to send her to Chenxiang Palace. People who didn't know it thought he was sending her to some good place.
When he arrived in front of Chenxiang Palace, Mu Ci got off the chariot.
Just as she was about to enter Chenxiang Palace, Yingchun rushed over to her. The eldest prince, who was being held by Sizhu, seemed to sense that something was wrong and cried loudly.
For a moment, the cries of adults and children echoed each other, filling the air.
Mu Ci waited for the excitement of welcoming the new year to calm down, and then said: "What's there to cry about? It's not to say goodbye to the Ai family..."
"Your Majesty, you are not allowed to say such unlucky words." Sizhu's face darkened. Although she was not as outgoing as she was during the Spring Festival, her eyes were still red at the moment.
At this moment, someone hurried over, it was Wu Jieyu.
"Empress?" She came over specially to take a look after receiving the news.
She thought it was just a rumor, but when she saw Yingchun's eyes swollen from crying, she knew something was wrong.
"The Ai family is tired of living in Yong'an Palace. They want to live a quieter life and will move into Chenxiang Palace in the future. You came just in time. The three of them will serve you from now on." Mu Ci smiled peacefully and softly, without any trace of emotion.
It's like he's about to live in a cold palace.
When Wu Jieyu heard this, her eyes turned red: "I will take good care of them. When the queen comes back, I will hand them back to the queen intact."
"Let's all go back. It's not like the Ai family never comes back." Mu Ci said, waving to them.
But no one moved.
She sighed softly and her eyes were fixed on Dugu Liancheng's face for a moment: "Emperor, please send the Ai family to Chenxiang Palace."
Because Dugu Liancheng had let go of everyone she cared about, she also wanted to say a few more sincere words to him.
Dugu Liancheng nodded and accompanied Mu Ci into Chenxiang Palace.
Chenxiang Palace is no longer as cold as before, but is full of greenery everywhere.
——
We have still come this far, Daqian is still very gentle. Some people say that they have not abused the emperor, but they are abusing me. But in fact, up to now, I have not been moved by the emperor.
In fact, whoever is tempted first has already lost.
