"As you said, the sisters in the harem regard me as their opponent. I can't stay in Yong'an Palace every day. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle." Mu Ci smiled sweetly.
She was really confused a few days ago, always thinking that she could calm down for a while without causing trouble, but she hadn't seen it clearly before Si Zhu and the others.
Once you enter a place like the harem, how can you be as quiet as you want?
Moreover, she wanted to avenge her previous life. At this critical moment, she actually offended the emperor.
Dugu Liancheng was stingy and vindictive, so it would probably take some time before he would think of her. During this period, she would have to walk around the harem a lot.
Jingyang Palace is the best place to collect information. It is always good to go there every day to see the excitement and collect some information on the way.
She was still out of favor, so she had to make a good gesture so that Concubine An could not find fault with her.
From now on, she can no longer "serve as a favor", let alone rely on Dugu Liancheng for everything. She doesn't know when she started to develop such a bad habit.
She basically forgot that there was no Empress Dowager Mu in the world, but now there was only Mu Meiren, and the old tricks did not work in the current harem.
Mu Ci arrived at Jingyang Palace at just the right time, neither too early nor too late.
As soon as she appeared, everyone's eyes were fixed on her.
Sometimes I have to tell the truth. Not to mention that men can't handle a beautiful woman like Mu Ci. As a woman, sometimes she can't help but want to take a second look at her.
How can such a person not be jealous and hated when he is loved by thousands of people?
Mu Ci immediately went to salute An Rong with a respectful attitude.
Seeing this scene, Tao Meiren raised her lips sarcastically: "Hey, how come Sister Mu, who has never enforced palace rules on anyone, suddenly became so knowledgeable and polite that she actually saluted the imperial concubine? After all, I went to the palace before you, didn't you?
You should also salute me?"
She had disliked Mu Ci for a long time, and she had endured it before. But now when she saw Mu Ci looking so bright and colorful, she was so jealous that she could no longer control her resentment.
Hearing this, Mu Ci smiled sweetly: "If you can't speak, don't speak, so as not to make so many sisters present laugh at you, Tao-beauty."
Tao Meiren was upset by Mu Ci's rebuke, but because she was in Jingyang Palace, she couldn't continue to attack.
Even a fool could tell that Mu Ci deliberately emphasized the word "beauty" to ridicule her. Jieyu was demoted to beauty in just a few days.
Seeing this scene, Qi Luo smiled and said, "This refreshing color looks especially good on Sister Mu."
"Ming Fei is so famous that I just found something and put it on without taking care of myself."
It's okay if Mu Ci doesn't speak, but when he opens his mouth, he can make several people angry to death.
This time Mu Ci really didn't lie. She just picked something at random and put it on. But her words sounded to the ears of many sisters present as she was deliberately showing off that because of her beauty, she looked good in anything she wore.
The smile on Qi Luo's face almost couldn't be held back.
Her original intention was to win over Mu Ci so that she could deal with An Rong.
An Rong has been pressing her harder and harder lately, which makes her very unhappy. Concubine An is taller than her, so she always suffers from An Rong's hand.
If you can win over Mu Ci and stand on the same front as her, dealing with An Rong will be a piece of cake.
However, cooperating with Mu Ci is also working with wolves.
If things go wrong, An Rong might point her gun at Mu Ci if she sees her getting close to Mu Ci.
She could only find a random topic to cover up her embarrassment.
An Rong saw Qi Luo talking to Mu Ci from a distance, and of course she saw Qi Luo's intentions clearly.
Mu Ci has been coming to Jingyang Palace frequently recently, and his attitude towards her can be regarded as respectful, but what is his shady purpose?
Thinking of this, she planned to test Mu Ci.
"I received a gift from the emperor yesterday, including a pair of earrings. The color matches Mu Mei's outfit today, so I gave it to you." An Rong said, looking at Xiang Zhitao.
Zhitao understood and quickly took out a pair of exquisite and delicate earrings. The earrings of this earring were made of round jasper, which was completely translucent and smooth in color. It was indeed a treasure.
But An Rong chose to reward Mu Ci when everyone came to pay their respects, and specifically pointed out that it was a reward from the emperor. In other words, An Rong only threw things that An Rong didn't want to Mu Ci.
If Mu Ci accepts a reward, he must follow the palace rules and kneel down to receive the gift.
If Mu Ci refuses to accept the reward, it will be disrespectful to Concubine An. Concubine An can also punish Mu Ci to kneel down.
In the end, no matter what Mu Ci does, he will fall into An Rong's trap.
I have to say that An Rong is quite scheming, and she knows how to control other people's lives.
Everyone was waiting to see the show, thinking that Mu Ci would suffer at the hands of An Rong and be accused of disrespect by An Rong.
There were also many people present who wanted to see Mu Ci's joke. After all, there were many concubines who hated her.
When Wu Zhaoyi saw this scene, she subconsciously wanted to save Mu Ci.
At this time, Mu Ci spoke: "This is a gift from the emperor to the imperial concubine. It is not good for the imperial concubine to give things to others rashly. Those who know will say that the imperial concubine is generous, but those who don't know will say that the imperial concubine is generous.
The empress does not respect the emperor, and casually gives to others the rewards that the emperor carefully selected for the empress. Furthermore, I already have a set of the same gifts from the emperor, and one more thing will be wasted."
That last sentence was not just nonsense.
The jewelry that Dugu Liancheng gave her was unknown to anyone else. It would not be difficult to find the same pair of earrings.
An Rong's expression gradually became serious: "In this case, it's my fault."
Mu Ci looked back calmly: "If your concubine really wants a reward, I believe some of the sisters present would be willing to accept it. But for me, one of the same things is enough, and two of them are not unusual."
When Qi Luo heard this, he laughed out loud: "Sister Mu's words are interesting. If you really can't reward the concubine's pair of earrings, you might as well give them to the peach. Last time, the peach was scolded by the cane because of the concubine.
"Dun, if your concubine is considerate of her subordinates, she will be able to deal with them better."
When Zhitao saw Qi Luo burning her body with fire, she was so frightened that she fell to her knees and said, "I am so frightened that I dare not accept such a valuable reward."
The last incident finally passed, and Concubine Ming mentioned it again. This was intentional to embarrass the Concubine.
Wasn't that tire slide incident also a confrontation between Mu Ci and the imperial concubine? In the end, the imperial concubine was defeated by Mu Ci. Today, it was because of Mu Ci that the imperial concubine lost face in front of so many concubines in the harem.
An Rong suppressed her surging emotions and said calmly: "Get up. You have served me wholeheartedly and you deserve a reward. I will give you this pair of earrings."
Zhitao took it fearfully, thanked him and stood up.
Just when the atmosphere was delicate, Li Yu's voice came from far away: "The Emperor is here!"
