After meeting Yao Feier, Liu Xin returned to Yong'an Palace.
Yong'an Palace was still the same as when she left. Luo Xin didn't even look at her when she came back.
Luo Xin, a palace maid, is also very interesting. She always talks to Luo Xin and wants to have a good relationship with Luo Xin, but Luo Xin never talks to her.
As for other people in Yong'an Palace, none of them seemed to know that she had ever left Yong'an Palace. For a moment, she felt relieved.
Of course she didn't know that when she entered the gate of Yong'an Palace, Ji Rou told Mu Ci about her return to Yong'an Palace.
"Since Liu Xin is so good at medicine, why did the empress put her in Yong'an Palace? The servant was afraid that Liu Xin wanted to poison the empress." Ji Rou was worried.
"I know she is powerful, so I let her do rough work. She can't get close to me without my order. What do you think Yao Feier's purpose is? Does she want to kill me, or does she have another plan?"
Mu Ci murmured to himself.
After all, good people never come.
"After what the empress said, I think we should find a way to deal with Liu Xin. The empress cannot risk her own safety." Yingchun's expression was also solemn.
Mu Ci had other plans: "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't catch the tiger's cub. If I want to catch the person behind Yao Feier, I have to take risks. Liu Xin came to the door himself. Although this is a crisis, it may also be a turning point."
"But it's still too dangerous. I don't think the queen should risk her own safety. Even if she wants to catch the murderer, there are other ways, so why risk her own life?" Yingchun was stubborn.
After all, in her opinion, nothing is more important than the safety of the empress.
As soon as she opened her mouth, several others also agreed, which gave Mu Ci a headache for a while.
"I will definitely be more careful, and you guys are here to protect me. I promise you that nothing will happen to you."
What Mu Ci didn't say was that she wasn't trusting her because no matter how powerful Liu Xin's medical skills were, they couldn't compete with her rouge buckle to protect her body.
She also wanted to know what other wonderful uses Rouge had, which could detoxify hundreds of poisons and allow her to be reborn. She couldn't wait to know.
Of course, because Mu Ci was the master, it was she who finally got rid of these girls by acting like a master.
But on the next day, the four palace maids began to lobby again. This time, Mu Ci finally told the reason why he was so confident, and this made them shut up.
Like Mu Ci, they were also curious about the function of the rouge button.
But they were not as bold as Mu Ci. When they heard that Mu Ci wanted to keep Liu Xin close, they all opposed it at the same time.
This matter can only be put on hold for the time being.
That night, Dugu Liancheng appeared in Yong'an Palace with a sullen face.
Mu Ci didn't understand what happened, "What happened?"
It looked like something big had happened to him.
Dugu Liancheng has been emperor for a long time and has not shown his emotions. Now he has the word "unhappy" written on his face.
Dugu Liancheng pursed his thin lips tightly and didn't answer. He just looked at Mu Ci coldly.
She still had the nerve to ask him what happened. She had indeed forgotten what happened that night?
"Have I made you unhappy?" Mu Ci saw the problem and pointed at his face and asked.
She looked confused, unable to remember what she had done to Dugu Liancheng to offend the emperor.
Dugu Liancheng looked at her with complicated eyes for a while, and finally couldn't hold it back anymore, so he pinched her pink face twice.
She was probably too delicate, and a pinch left a mark. Her innocent eyes made him start again, and pinched hard on the tip of her nose before stopping.
"Are you a bit violent?" Mu Ci touched his face.
Dugu Liancheng has an abnormal mother and concubine. If he is abnormal, it is reasonable.
Dugu Liancheng took Mu Ci's hand, walked forward, and asked casually: "Have you missed me these days?"
Mu Ci didn't know whether she should tell the truth, but she wasn't willing to lie.
Dugu Liancheng knew what she was thinking when he saw her expression: "I like to hear the truth. If you make me happy, I will give you whatever reward you want."
"I don't seem to have anything in particular that I want." Mu Ci thought about it carefully and answered honestly.
"Think again, there are always things you like in the world." Dugu Liancheng said in a good-natured manner and decided to give this woman another chance.
How can an emperor want to reward someone but that person doesn't appreciate it?
"I want freedom, can the emperor give it to me?" Mu Ci smiled brightly.
Dugu Liancheng stabbed her smile hard several times this time, "I have given you enough freedom, don't be too greedy."
Mu Ci said he had nothing to say.
The freedom he talked about was nothing more than allowing her to move around as she pleased in the harem. She also didn't want to think about freedom like leaving the harem.
This topic was naturally dropped in the end.
But that night, Mu Ci had a harder time, because Dugu Liancheng thought of ways to torment her and force her to ask her if she missed him.
In the end, she couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to sleep, so she said "I want to" against her will, and this torturous night was finally over.
The next day she slept until three o'clock in the morning before getting up from bed. After washing, she ate lunch and breakfast together.
At this time, Sizhu said: "Master Qi is here and is waiting in the main hall. The Emperor is also here."
Mu Ci turned to look at Si Zhu: "When did they come?"
Sizhu replied implicitly: "I just came here not long ago."
In fact, the emperor and Mr. Qi arrived an hour ago. Knowing that the empress was still sleeping, the emperor ordered them not to disturb the empress to rest.
Mu Ci is a sensible person. If she thinks about it carefully, she will know that Dugu Liancheng has been in Yong'an Palace for a long time. She did not expose Sizhu's lies.
She hurried to the main hall, and Dugu Liancheng saw her rosy complexion and a smile on her face: "She looks pretty good."
Mu Ci's eyes were fixed on Qi Yu's face.
When Qi Yu saw Mu Ci, he stepped forward and saluted: "The common people have seen the empress."
"No courtesy." Mu Ci said with a warm smile.
Dugu Liancheng didn't like the tacit understanding between the two of them. He just wanted to make a quick decision: "Qi Yu, let's get started."
Qi Yu remembered that he was here to check Mu Ci's pulse, and Mu Ci was very self-aware and did not need their reminder, so he extended his hand.
After Qi Yu carefully checked Mu Ci's pulse, he said, "Your Majesty's pulse is stable, your body is healthy, and there is nothing wrong with her."
"Are you sure?" Dugu Liancheng asked in a deep voice, "Then why is she still infertile?"
"Perhaps the time has not come yet. Both the emperor and the empress are in good health, and the common people can't find any problems." Qi Yu replied respectfully.
Mu Ci stood aside quietly.
She was wondering if it might be a problem with the rouge button. Maybe the amulet felt that she was not suitable to be pregnant at the moment, so it would not let her get pregnant. This is not accurate, right?
Of course she would not say such ridiculous things.
After all, she wasn't ready to have a baby yet, so just let nature take its course.
