Chapter 692: It's her life to bet on the emperor's heir
"Did Yingchun really say that?" Yao Feier's eyes were a little wandering.
Yingchun is one of the closest people to Mu Ci. She and Sizhu are both Mu Ci's right-hand men. Yingchun can definitely speak well in front of Mu Ci.
"Of course, that's why I came here to inform Empress Zhaoyuan so that she can make preparations in advance." Liu Xin said with stern eyes: "Maybe we can eradicate Mu Ci in one fell swoop this time."
Since Mu Ci had a false pregnancy, she could only bribe the imperial doctor. If this was revealed, the crime would be increased.
Even if Mu Ci cannot be removed, he still has to make Mu Ci suffer from pain and make Mu Ci look embarrassed.
Yao Feier heard this and nodded in agreement: "What you said makes sense."
Yes, she should indeed have made preparations in advance. As long as Mu Ci was in danger, she could defeat Mu Ci at the critical moment.
"Does the empress have a way to deal with Mu Ci?" Liu Xin asked enthusiastically.
Yao Feier pondered for a moment and then said: "There is a way. You go back to Yong'an Palace first. Don't let anyone find out that you are a hidden stake sent by me. Act cautiously and don't be careless. If someone from Yong'an Palace finds something strange about you, you
Please notify me as soon as possible."
"Yes, Empress Zhaoyuan."
Liu Xin returned to Yong'an Palace as quickly as possible. The place was exactly the same as when she left. No one cared about her life and death, and naturally no one knew where she had been before.
I believe that in the near future, Mu Ci’s glorious days in the harem will be gone forever.
Naturally, she didn't know that since she left Yong'an Palace and then returned, her movements had already been noticed by those who were interested.
That afternoon, Mu Ci went to Yanfu Palace and proposed to Dugu Liancheng that the imperial physician help diagnose her pulse.
At first, Dugu Liancheng refused to agree, but later because of Mu Ci's insistence that he had a plan, Dugu Liancheng couldn't defeat her, so he had to let her go.
Mu Ci is a woman with a kind of magical power. She always has a way to convince him and make him willing.
Dugu Liancheng thought that he was not a person who would be easily shaken, but whenever he met Mu Ci, his firm belief would always be easily destroyed by her few words.
The news that Mu Ci was about to undergo pulse diagnosis by the imperial doctors spread from the harem to the former dynasty, and officials led by the Marquis of Ningchang also actively participated.
Dugu Liancheng did not stop them because Mu Ci had already said that anyone who wanted to visit could do it. She also said that she liked the crowds and the liveliness.
Seeing her confident look, he had no doubt that Mu Ci had already figured out how to deal with it.
He actually wanted to witness her ability to transform decay into something magical.
Just like that, in the evening, everyone who should be there arrived. The concubines in the harem who could speak came, and the officials from the previous court who wanted to defeat Mu Ci were also waiting outside.
The huge Yong'an Palace was overcrowded. This was the most prosperous scene in a palace of harem and concubines since the founding of the Great Xia Kingdom.
When Yao Feier saw so many people coming, she quickly thought about what might happen next.
An Rong also received an anonymous message here. This anonymous person said that Mu Ci united with the imperial doctors to perform a play today.
Of course, not only An Rong received this news, other palaces also received this anonymous letter, and Shen Manyun also received it here.
She doesn't care about anyone now, she only thinks about whether An Rong is the mastermind behind sending this anonymous letter. Later, when Mu Ci's acting with the imperial doctor is revealed, An Rong will probably be the happiest one, right?
She only hoped that Mu Ci would not do such a stupid thing and let so many people catch her in front of the emperor. She also hoped that Mu Ci could pull An Rong down from the position of imperial concubine and fall hard.
Everyone present had different thoughts, and Tao Meiren was the most impatient. Seeing that the imperial doctor was slow to help Mu Ci feel her pulse, she wanted to speak, but was afraid that Mu Ci would catch her again.
She looked at An Rong.
Everyone sees the grudge between An Rong and Mu Ci. If you really want to find the person who wants to get rid of Mu Ci the most, it must be An Rong.
That being the case, why should she be the one who stands out? Isn't there another Concubine An?
Tao Meiren calmed down and planned to wait and watch the excitement.
However, Marquis Ningchang, who was waiting outside, became impatient and asked through the screen: "Your Majesty, can you start diagnosing the pulse of Empress Xiuyi?"
Mu Ci was talking in a low voice to Dugu Liancheng. When she heard Ningchang Hou's voice, she pretended not to recognize him and asked, "Your Majesty, who was the person who spoke just now?"
Dugu Liancheng's eyebrows were downcast, no longer as friendly as before: "Marquis Ningchang."
Mu Ci made a statement of reflection: "It turns out he is the rebellious minister who often makes things difficult for the emperor."
Her voice, neither loud nor quiet, spread throughout the hall and naturally reached behind the screen.
Unexpectedly, Marquis of Ningchang did not expect that Mu Ci dared to accuse him in public and even called him a rebellious minister?
He lowered his eyebrows coldly and raised his voice: "Women in the harem are not allowed to participate in political affairs. Please pay attention to your status, Empress Xiuyi!"
"When did I participate in government affairs? Marquis of Ningchang, please tell me clearly! It's you, Marquis of Ningchang, who gave you the courage to put your hand into the emperor's harem. What crime do you deserve?!" Mu Ci said with awe-inspiring aura.
Counterattack coldly.
"You?!" Marquis Ningchang was speechless by Mu Ci's words.
It took him a while to suppress the anger in his heart and bring the topic to the right track, "If it is diagnosed that Empress Xiuyi is falsely pregnant later, the emperor will immediately execute this witch who deceives the emperor and ignores the emperor!"
A sharp edge flashed in Dugu Liancheng's eyes. Sure enough, as Mu Ci said, Marquis Ningchang is a traitor to his ministers. It is useless to keep such ministers, and they will cause trouble for him from time to time. It seems that he must find a way to get rid of him.
When Mu Ci heard Ningchang Hou's idea, he couldn't help laughing: "Ningchang Hou keeps claiming that I am a demon concubine. Please tell me, what did I do to make you think that I am a demon concubine? According to you
According to the saying, if I am not pregnant, I will be executed. If I am really pregnant, will I be killed?"
"How dare you?!" Marquis Ningchang shouted.
Mu Ci's eyes flashed slightly, and he looked at Dugu Liancheng who pursed his thin lips, and made a suggestion: "Your Majesty, why not let me have a bet with the Marquis of Ningchang, and the bet will naturally be the emperor's heir in my belly. This is
It’s just that the bet between the concubine and the Marquis of Ningchang has nothing to do with others, the emperor, and of course the current political situation. Of course, if anyone else wants to join the bet, they can join in."
The other concubines in the harem heard this and gave it a try.
Because they knew that Mu Ci's pregnancy was gambling money, and they also knew that Mu Ci had a false pregnancy, Mu Ci was bound to lose. Many people present wanted to participate, but they still had some scruples. They didn't know what kind of bet Mu Ci was placing.
"This is the best opportunity. Everyone should seize it. If you miss this time, you will never have such a good opportunity to get rid of me. Because this time my bet is my life!" As soon as Mu Ci said this, the scene became strangely quiet.
