When Dugu Liancheng heard the sound, he quickened his pace and soon disappeared from Mu Ci's sight.
Mu Ci's smile faded.
How could Dugu Liancheng be so innocent? If she saw it right just now, the tips of his ears seemed to be red?
She shook her head, thinking she must have been dazzled.
After getting rid of Dugu Liancheng, who was an eyesore, Mu Ci could finally feel more at ease. At least he no longer had to play chess with him, which was a waste of his brain.
Since becoming the Queen Mother, she has increasingly felt that a leisurely life is more suitable for her.
The next morning, many concubines came to Weiyang Palace to pay their respects.
Just because everyone wanted to sleep with him, the emperor finally got tired of Shen Manyun, and now was their opportunity to take advantage of it.
They would not be like Shen Manyun, who would wait for the opportunity to sleep with her. Only fools would do such a thing.
Yesterday, the emperor made a verbal announcement that the sign might be flipped tonight, which is why so many people moved to seize the opportunity.
To everyone's surprise, Shen Jieyu, who has always been aloof, also came to Weiyang Palace.
Everyone said that Shen Jieyu had figured it out and joined the big team competing for favor.
In fact, when Shen Manyun came to Weiyang Palace this time, she wanted to take a closer look at the Queen Mother who was treated specially by the emperor.
During the last draft, she was spotted by the Queen Mother at a glance and left the Chuxiu Palace quickly without taking a closer look at the Queen Mother's appearance.
Since she entered the palace, she has heard the servants below talk about the Queen Mother more than once. Just yesterday, Long Live Lord was visiting the Imperial Garden, but later he left all the beauties and sent the Queen Mother back to Weiyang Palace.
After that, he stayed in Weiyang Palace for a whole afternoon and didn't leave until evening.
She didn't believe it when she heard that Lord Long Live had an affair with the Queen Mother. The news yesterday was very true. She even saw with her own eyes the scene of Lord Long Live leaving Wuyang Palace in the evening.
So she came here today to meet with Mu Ci and see how beautiful this girl is.
Everyone waited for about a quarter of an hour before Mu Ci appeared with the support of Yingchun.
It's cold in the morning now. Mu Ci is wearing a gray cross-collar dark coat with a shawl over it. His clothes are simpler than those of ordinary people.
She only had a wooden hairpin in her hair, but her appearance was incredible. Even such ordinary clothes could not conceal her stunning beauty.
The concubines next to me never dare to wear gray. Firstly, it is unlucky, and secondly, it is difficult to wear a good color.
If you prefer to admire Ci, you will do the opposite and wear whatever you want, without caring about the opinions of others.
After Mu Ci sat down, he looked at Shen Jieyu who had been staring at him.
When Shen Manyun saw Mu Ci looking over, she raised her chin slightly but did not give way.
The Queen Mother is indeed as beautiful as a flower. There are many concubines present, but none of them can match the beauty of the Queen Mother. But so what? After all, she is just a widowed woman who lost her husband.
She was unwilling to admit that Long Live Lord would be interested in Mu Ci.
The Queen Mother's face is indeed beautiful, but the Emperor is not a superficial man. His beauty alone will never make the Emperor fall in love with her.
It was feared that the Queen Mother had remarried, which caused Mr. Long Live to lose his face. Therefore, Mr. Long Live wanted to break up the city, so he deliberately created the illusion of being ambiguous with the Queen Mother, hoping to make the Queen Mother a target of public criticism.
Telling herself this way, her mind was set.
Mu Ci glanced at Shen Manyun and then looked away.
Shen Manyun didn't want to let it go, and raised her voice: "I heard that the emperor stayed in Weiyang Palace for an entire afternoon before leaving yesterday. Does the Queen Mother have anything to clarify about this?"
