The sky is a clear blue, without a single cloud, and even the wind is light and gentle.
Mu Meiren just chose such a good day to show up.
When she appeared in the Royal Garden with a flawless face, everyone believed the rumor that Mu Meiren was the Queen Mother even more.
The Empress Dowager was already "dead", but Mu Ci appeared in the Emperor's harem with the most beautiful appearance. It is self-evident what this means.
Even An Rong, who was as calm as An Rong, couldn't hold back when she received the news that Mu Ci had appeared in the Imperial Garden, and went to the Imperial Garden to see what was going on.
When we got to the Imperial Garden, it was already crowded with people, and it was Mu Ci who was surrounded by many beauties.
Today she was wearing a beige embroidered gold-trimmed concubine-colored chrysanthemum pattern phoenix tail dark flower satin cross-collar coat, and a floor-length white plum blossom skirt with a smoke cage. She had a high bun with a translucent white jade hairpin inserted diagonally.
The only ornaments on her body were the white jade hairpins in her bun. No makeup was applied to her face, but it was as fresh and pink as the morning dew.
An Rong had seen Mu Ci look most noble when he was wearing auspicious clothes. Although the Mu Ci in front of her was in simple clothes, the nobility and coercion exuded by his gestures made her suffocate.
Even if she sat in the position of a noble concubine, her magnanimity and appearance were still not as good as Mu Ci's.
Mu Ci was joking with others when he looked up and saw An Rong standing not far away.
Her beautiful eyes were filled with a smile, and she said to An Rong, who was standing stupidly, "Why is your concubine standing so stupidly?"
An Rong's palms were sweaty. She lowered her eyelids and calmed herself down before slowly approaching Mu Ci: "It's so lively here."
Seeing An Rong coming, all the harem sisters saluted An Rong one after another.
Mu Ci was the only one who straightened his back and made no movement at all.
When everyone saw this scene, they quietly looked at An Rong's expression.
There was nothing wrong with An Rong's expression. After all, the emperor had already issued an oral order, and Mu Ci did not need to enforce the palace rules to anyone.
Even if she is as noble as An Rong, Mu Ci does not need to salute. I am afraid that An Guifei will not be in a good mood at this moment, right?
When Mu Meiren first entered the palace, everyone did not take this woman seriously. Especially during the plum blossom appreciation party, everyone only thought that Mu Meiren was coquettish, overbearing, and vulgar. But now when they saw Mu Ci with their own eyes, she
Her face, her temperament, and her behavior are all eye-catching.
If they had any doubts before, now they were all sure that she was the Queen Mother.
Mu Ci versus An Guifei, the two are kings versus kings, and there is no certainty who will be the winner in the end.
Some people think that Mu Ci has a good chance of winning. After all, everyone has heard of Mu Ci's methods. Of course, most people still feel that An Rong has taken the advantage.
In the past, the reason why Mu Ci was able to bring down the emperor's entire harem was simply because she had the advantage in terms of status. At that time, Mu Ci was the Queen Mother, and who she wanted to execute was not just a matter of words?
Now An Rong has become a noble concubine, but Mu Ci is just a little beauty. How can Mu Ci's thin arms twist An Rong's thigh?
Everyone present had different thoughts, but Mu Ci and An Rong remained calm and talked about insignificant topics.
An Rong and Mu Ci talked for a while, but she felt that something was wrong all over her body. She was obviously the imperial concubine, but Mu Ci's tone gave her the illusion that she was still in a lower position.
She slowed down and said to Mu Ci: "I'm going to go for a walk in front. You can continue to enjoy the flowers."
After she finished speaking, she walked away without looking back.
Mu Ci looked at An Rong's back and tugged at the corner of his lips: "Why is the imperial concubine leaving in such a hurry? Who else here can eat her?"
Liu Jieyu burst into laughter upon hearing this.
She looked at Mu Ci again and felt that she had a keen eye for recognizing people. Although her purpose of using Mu Ci to gain favor was not achieved, at least she did not make Mu Ci unhappy, which was a blessing.
Someone like Mu Ci will skyrocket sooner or later. Because she occupies the right time, place, right people, and has the favor of the emperor. She has deep scheming and powerful methods. How could such a person fail to succeed?
She is one of the very few people who supports Mu Ci's success.
No matter how capable Concubine An is, she should still be worse than Mu Ci.
Just at the lively moment, suddenly there was a noise coming from the front.
Everyone followed the sound and looked, didn't An Rong go that way just now?
As soon as everyone saw that there was something lively to see, they swarmed over there.
Mu Ci fell at the back, looking at the crowds of people in front of her, but she still stood where she was.
"Your Majesty, let's not go. I don't think anything good will happen. Maybe Concubine An has set a trap for Your Majesty to jump." Yingchun whispered.
When Mu Ci heard this, he turned to look at Yingchun.
Her first impression just now was the same, but she thought of Yingchun together.
"Be careful. Although the excitement is nice to watch, it is not as important as the safety of the empress." Yingchun thought that Mu Ci didn't believe her, so she added.
"That's it, let's go back." Mu Ci also thought this was true.
Even if An Rong wants to act in some drama, there is no need for her to accompany her. Her appearance fee is not worth much.
After walking far away, I heard someone over there exclaiming: "The imperial concubine has fainted. Could it be that she is happy?"
Sizhu heard this clearly. She glanced at Mu Ci quietly, but Mu Ci didn't even slow down her steps.
Of course, the group of people didn't know what happened to An Rong in the imperial garden. Is it true that the imperial concubine was pregnant as the palace official said.
But the news that the imperial concubine was happy spread quickly in the harem.
The four maids around Mu Ci were usually lively, but today they were all quiet. Even when they spoke, their voices were kept as low as possible, for fear that Mu Ci would not be happy to hear the news.
For this reason, Sizhu even went to Tong Shi to inquire about the news.
It turned out that An Rong did sleep in Yong'an Palace one day about a month ago, but she left Yong'an Palace that night and did not spend the night in Yong'an Palace.
In addition, An Rong was a low-key person, so this matter was not publicized everywhere, but Tong Shi recorded it in black and white that An Rong did go to bed that night.
If An Rong is indeed pregnant this time and she got pregnant after sleeping with her one night, it means that An Rong is very lucky.
On the other hand, the emperor stayed in Yong'an Palace most of the time, but the empress was still unable to get pregnant.
Concubine He Xian has raised an eldest prince, and Concubine An is also happy. The situation in the harem is really weird and unpredictable.
The four maids were all worried about Mu Ci's random thoughts, but what Mu Ci cared about was An Rong's ability to hide things.
Because An Rong had rescued Dugu Liancheng, and Dugu Liancheng had always been special to An Rong, she couldn't be sure whether An Rong's baby was Dugu Liancheng's.
No matter how messed up Dugu Liancheng is, he won't let other men take his place and favor An Rong, right? After all, An Rong is a noble concubine. If she really wants to give birth to her, it may confuse the royal bloodline, which is a big deal.
