Mu Ci sensed Dugu Liancheng's gaze and looked back: "Master Mu is the one who brought this calamity upon himself. You are the emperor and you did the right thing. I shouldn't blame you either emotionally or rationally."
"But you still blame me, right?" Dugu Liancheng heard the hidden meaning in Mu Ci's words.
Mu Ci thought for a while: "Actually, that's not the case. I just have some things that I can't figure out..."
If Mu Zhi deserved to die in both his previous life and this life, then why did his brother die in the prison? What happened in his previous life?
She could see that Dugu Liancheng valued his brother very much. In this case, how could he kill his brother?
She didn't even know why she was reborn in this life.
Now that Mu Zhi is dead and her mother and brother are still alive, does that mean she has changed the fate of her loved ones?
She went to Nuange, tossing and turning, but still couldn't fall asleep. The past events from her past were rushing past her like a revolving lantern. She tried to sort out the chaos, but to no avail.
At midnight, she finally fell asleep.
This time she dreamed of Dugu Liancheng.
That was on the eve of her being banished to the cold palace. At that time, because she failed to retain the imperial heir, Dugu Liancheng neglected her for two months.
This time he suddenly came to Weiyang Palace, which surprised her but made her a little sad at the same time.
He blamed her for acting recklessly and killing their child, but he never knew that someone was secretly killing her. She had always been drugged in her daily diet, but the drug that caused the miscarriage was very small. On weekdays,
Undetectable.
It wasn't until that day when she and Yun Xi were jealous that they got angry and got pregnant, and they failed to save their child.
Her pulse pattern when she had a miscarriage was different, and it was only later that Dr. Zhang told her about it that she realized that she had another hidden reason for her miscarriage.
Because she lost her child and was being ignored by Dugu Liancheng, when she was frustrated, she never thought of asking Dugu Liancheng to explain the matter.
In this way, she and Dugu Liancheng had a cold war for two months. During this period, they had never met each other and were like strangers.
She and Dugu Liancheng clearly had a sweet time, but why did they come to this point?
When Dugu Liancheng appeared in front of her that day, he looked haggard, not as energetic as she had imagined, and he looked like he had lost weight.
A greeting to worry about him was stuck in her throat and she couldn't say it out.
"I have said more than once that you are still young and ignorant. In a place like the harem, you have to try to grow up in order to take care of yourself..."
Dugu Liancheng said a lot to her that day, and she vaguely understood that he meant to alienate her.
So the truth she wanted to tell was swallowed back into her belly at that moment.
Dugu Liancheng talked a lot that day, but she didn't listen carefully because she was sad.
Two days later, when Yunxi came to visit her, she confessed to killing her child. Yunxi even went out of her way to stimulate her, saying that An Rong was pregnant with the dragon heir after she climbed onto the dragon bed a month ago.
She was so angry that she stabbed Yun Xi with a knife.
Yun Xi was seriously injured and her life hung by a thread. She, the queen, also paid a heavy price. Although she was not deprived of her title or demoted, she was imprisoned in Chenxiang Palace...
Mu Ci opened his eyes in a daze, looking at the golden tent hook in a daze.
The dream was so clear that she actually remembered what Dugu Liancheng said to her that day. He said that she should take care of herself when he was not around, and he also said that she should wait for him.
Could it be that Dugu Liancheng had other plans before banishing her to Chenxiang Palace? He seemed to have already planned to banish her to Chenxiang Palace. Maybe without Yun Xi deliberately provoking her, Dugu Liancheng would still have sent her into Chenxiang Palace.
.
However, there is no way to find out the truth about the events in her past life. She can only rely on memory to deduce some things. Maybe not the whole truth, but it will be part of the truth.
The servants serving in Yong'an Palace all found that Mu Ci was in low spirits and had been distracted.
They all thought that Mu Ci's absent-mindedness was related to Mu Zhi's execution. No matter how unsympathetic they were, they were still the biological father and daughter, and Mu Ci was not a truly heartless person.
Yingchun and Sizhu silently stayed by Mu Ci's side, trying not to look at Mu Ci and worrying about his thoughts, and they were able to serve Mu Ci at any time when he was in need.
But Mu Ci was also a tolerant person. In the afternoon, she thought about it and no longer dwelled on the past life.
It is impossible for her to return to that life, nor to know the past that has long been buried. No matter how much she wants to solve the mystery, she cannot find out the truth.
If that's the case, why would she bother herself?
When Dugu Liancheng came to Yong'an Palace for dinner, he found a table of delicious food prepared. Looking at Mu Ci's smiling face, he felt relieved and understood that she had figured it out.
After Mu Zhi was arrested, he knew that Mu Zhi would definitely be executed, and that such a black sheep could not be left behind. But the first thing he thought of was Mu Ci. No matter what, Mu Ci was Mu Zhi's daughter, and the fluid in her body was Mu Ci.
Straight blood.
And he killed Mu Zhi, how did this make Mu Ci feel?
Now that he is Mu Ci's father-killing enemy, how can Mu Ci let go of her guard when facing him?
He never thought that Mu Ci would have such a broad mind. She seemed to have let go, and it didn't look like she was acting.
During the meal, Mu Ci was very quiet, and Dugu Liancheng also ate in silence. Although no one spoke, the atmosphere was very good.
After dinner, Dugu Liancheng took Mu Ci's hand and went for a walk on the Chaoshou Veranda.
While standing in front of the flower pond, Dugu Liancheng asked: "Do you hate me?"
He disliked her at first, then after the death of his imperial brother, he forced her to become a woman he could not see; now, he killed her father.
He believed that no woman in the world would be so broad-minded as to be with her father-killing enemy. Because of this, he was so uncertain.
But if he wanted to let her leave the palace, he would not do anything.
Mu Ci was a little surprised that he asked such a question, and she answered softly: "I don't hate it."
In her previous life, she loved and hated him, but later she became disheartened and never had such strong feelings for anyone again.
She was able to let go of her feelings for Dugu Liancheng in her previous life, so how could she waste her energy on hating him in this life?
She really doesn't hate it.
Because Mu Zhi deserves to die. As the emperor of Daxia, Dugu Liancheng was right to execute Mu Zhi.
A traitor like Mu Zhi would not regret dying. Even if Mu Zhi's blood is flowing in her body, she will kill her relatives out of justice.
"I hope you can hate me." Dugu Liancheng sighed silently.
She is sensible and tolerant. Where can I find a woman as knowledgeable and interesting as her in this world?
She doesn't even try to be jealous. Only when she needs to act, she occasionally plays a jealous woman.
Perhaps throughout his life, he would never see the day when she would truly be jealous of him.
