Chapter 683 Clarification overnight: The whole family who maliciously spread rumors!
"Could it be that Concubine An wanted to harm the empress, so she came up with such a sinister way to deal with the empress?" Sizhu and Mu Ci thought about it.
Your Majesty has been enjoying good food and housing lately, and there has been no sign of happiness. How could they, the close servants, not know that your Majesty is happy, but everyone outside Chenxiang Palace knows it?
Mu Ci was convinced: "It would be better to make this matter clear as soon as possible."
She was afraid that Dugu Liancheng took it seriously and thought she was pregnant, and it would be too unjust to sentence her to the crime of deceiving the emperor.
There are always rumors that the person she is married to is acting very wickedly.
"Yingchun, you go out to Chenxiang Palace again and find some palace maids or chamberlains who like to spread rumors. The more the better, just tell me that I have something to clarify." After dinner, the sky was already dark, so Mu Ci decided to fight quickly.
quick decision.
"Yes, your Majesty!" Yingchun replied loudly after hearing her instructions.
She ran out of Chenxiang Palace happily, and Ningxiang also ran errands, both of them working hard.
Even though it was night, many people rushed outside Chenxiang Palace after hearing the news, wanting to know what Mu Ci would say.
These people even want to know whether the news about Mu Ci's happiness is true. If it is not true, who would dare to spread rumors like this?
Interestingly, the news that Mu Ci had something to say quickly spread throughout the palace.
There were a lot of people who came to watch the excitement. Zhao Wei knew that this was what Mu Ci meant, so he had to order everyone to protect Mu Ci inside to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the chaos to kill Mu Ci.
Mu Ci didn't expect that so many people would come to watch the fun.
She did not step out of Chenxiang Palace, but stood at the entrance of the palace.
After everyone calmed down, she raised her lips and said, "There are rumors in the palace about my happiness. I would like to clarify here tonight that this matter is a rumor and there is no need to take it seriously."
"What I heard is true. There is an imperial doctor from the imperial hospital who came to treat the master. How could it be a rumor?" I don't know which palace maid in the crowd was the first to ask the question.
Mu Ci looked at the source of the voice.
The other party was hidden in the crowd, and it was night again, so he couldn't see clearly.
But this palace lady seemed to be deliberately looking for trouble, and I don't know if it was her imagination.
As soon as the palace maid finished speaking, someone started cheering from the side: "Yes, I also heard that Master Mu is pregnant, and she is still a little prince. When the emperor heard the good news, he was drafting an edict to promote Master Mu's status.
."
Not only did Mu Ci sense that something was wrong this time, Sizhu and Yingchun also sensed the problem.
If Dugu Liancheng thought that her pregnancy was true and was planning to improve her status, then he would be in big trouble.
Regardless of whether she was planning this behind the scenes, she had to be decisive and express her attitude.
At that moment, she straightened her tone and said sternly: "I'll reiterate it once again. There is no dragon heir, no personal relationship, the sun and the moon can tell, and the whole family will die if they maliciously spread rumors!!"
As soon as she said this, the scene fell silent.
It wasn't that Mu Ci's attitude was firm, but that Mu Ci's words didn't sound like the tone of a concubine in the harem. They had never seen a harem master curse others so recklessly.
The four maids around Mu Ci also looked at Mu Ci with admiration.
They never thought that their mother-in-law's words could be so interesting.
The empress is the empress. Once these words come out, who else dares to maliciously spread rumors? Even if the emperor blames her, he can't blame the empress, right?
Mu Ci ignored the stunned crowd. After saying what she wanted to say, she turned around and went back to Chenxiang Palace, and then ordered people to close the palace door.
After her goal was achieved, there was no need to waste words with others anymore.
Seeing that the door of Chenxiang Palace was closed, everyone dispersed. The two palace ladies who had been hiding in the crowd looked at each other. They were the palace maids who had just answered the conversation.
The two of them dispersed and quickly headed towards Yanfu Palace.
What Mu Ci said spread quickly.
This news was passed to Jingyang Palace. After An Rong heard it, she breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay that she is not pregnant. As long as she is not pregnant, she is not a threat to this palace."
Otherwise, she would have to think of ways to deal with Mu Ci.
Having failed once before, her confidence was severely damaged.
She only knew that Mu Ci could not give birth to an heir no matter what, otherwise she would have no chance of winning against Mu Ci.
"I knew it was a rumor as soon as I heard it. Mu Meiren still has some self-awareness and knows how to clarify the matter. Your Majesty can feel at ease now." Zhitao agreed with An Rong.
Mu Ci personally clarified that she was not pregnant, so this matter could not be false. Otherwise, this would be the best opportunity to leave the cold palace. I believe no one would push this opportunity away.
An Rong rarely smiled and settled in early.
Let’s go back to Chenxiang Palace.
After Mu Ci solved the rumor problem, she was in a particularly good mood. She was sure that the news had reached the harem and rested after taking a bath.
The next day she slept until she woke up naturally. After washing, she changed into a fresh dress. As soon as she was properly dressed, she heard the voice of Yingchun approaching from far away: "Mother, it's not good!"
When Mu Ci heard this, she turned around and saw that Yingchun was running too fast. She warned softly: "Run slower, don't fall."
Yingchunxin said: How can I slow down?
If she still slows down after such a big thing happened, there is something wrong with her brain.
"Don't worry, wait until your breathing has calmed down before you speak." Mu Ci said softly to Yingchun.
After calming down her disordered breathing, Yingchun said excitedly: "Your Majesty, hurry up and go to the palace gate to see, something big has happened!"
Seeing her mid-sentence, Mu Ci's curiosity was aroused: "What kind of big event is it?"
Yingchun thought about it for a while, but decided to pass it off: "Your Majesty, you can go and see it yourself." She was afraid that if she said it, her Majesty would not show up.
You can't always ask people outside to wait. Those are all big people in Daxia, so it's not good to keep people waiting.
Yingchun's words not only aggravated Mu Ci's curiosity, but Sizhu beside him also asked, "What is it? Just tell me."
How can there be any reason to seduce people like this?
Yingchun corrected his color: "If you want to know, just escort the queen to the palace gate to have a look."
Seeing that she refused to say anything, Mu Ci stopped asking questions and took the lead to go to the gate of Chenxiang Palace.
The four maids followed behind Mu Ci, going back and forth together.
During this period, Ningxiang asked Yingchun more than once what happened outside, but Yingchun was too embarrassed to speak.
Seeing that the gate of Chenxiang Palace was approaching, Ningxiang no longer wasted her words.
From a distance, you can see that the door of Chenxiang Palace is closed, not as open as usual.
Ningxiang was startled and said: "Is it that the emperor plans to imprison the empress for the rest of her life?"
Mu Ci listened carefully and felt that there seemed to be some movement outside the palace gate, but he couldn't hear it clearly.
"Ningxiang, you talk the most, go and open the palace door." Mu Ci said to Ningxiang.
Ningxiang was extremely innocent: "Which slave is the most talkative? It's obvious that Yingchun talks the most, and the queen is partial."
Even so, she still stepped forward.
The palace door was ajar. It turned out that the empress had noticed it a long time ago and ordered her to open the palace door.
