Dugu Liancheng was really tired, so he fell on the couch and fell asleep. It seemed that because he knew Mu Ci was beside him, he slept very soundly and didn't even have a dream.
But it seemed that he had another dream about Mu Ci, but he couldn't remember anything in the dream when he opened his eyes.
After waking up from his sleep, he felt refreshed.
At this time, lunch was prepared, and Mu Ci gave Dugu Liancheng a bowl of soup, "This is the medicinal meal that I asked the imperial kitchen to prepare for you. It has the effect of nourishing qi and calming the mind. Try the taste."
Dugu Liancheng smiled broadly. He felt that the soup was sweet and his whole body felt warm. He had never felt better.
Mu Ci saw him having fun alone and didn't understand why.
"Does it taste that good?" She expressed confusion.
Because it was a medicinal diet, although the medicinal smell was removed, the taste was very ordinary. Dugu Liancheng's expression looked like he was drinking honey, which made her puzzled.
"I have never tasted such delicious medicinal food." Dugu Liancheng said, looking at Mu Ci affectionately.
Mu Ci felt a little uncomfortable at his sudden disgusting look. She lowered her head and avoided his gaze.
Unexpectedly, he grabbed her hand and said softly: "I have worked so hard, you must be more considerate in the future."
Mu Ci was speechless when he heard this.
"Hurry up and eat your food." Seeing his hard work, she didn't confront him this time.
After all, he is the father of her child and her man. The two of them are now a family connected by blood.
"By the way, where are Yao and Liu Xin now?" Mu Ci thought of this.
She had some questions and wanted to ask Yao Feier, because everything was just a guess. Only by asking Yao Feier could she be sure whether her idea was correct.
In this way, her enemy in the previous life was not just An Rong, but possibly the entire Anguo Duke's Palace.
"I was just going to ask you, how do you want to deal with these two vicious women?" Dugu Liancheng asked with a straight face.
Mu Ci thought for a while and then said: "How about Liu Xin's death and Yao Feier's imprisonment in the Beigong?"
But before Liu Xin dies, Liu Xin should be handed over to Muxue for disposal. Muxue must really want to kill Liu Xin himself and take revenge, right?
"It's all up to you. You can do whatever you want. But the premise is that you have to protect yourself and our son." Dugu Liancheng felt that this matter must be made clear.
Mu Ci laughed: "How can you be sure that he is a son? If he were a princess, wouldn't you be disappointed when he was born?"
"I like both the princess and the prince. They were both born to you, but if I give birth to a son, I can stop..." Dugu Liancheng wanted to say that he could stop Li Yu's mouth.
But forget it, just don’t mention it.
"Although Yao Fei'er was recommended to you by Li Yu in the first place, I think he will definitely not join forces with the Yao family. Don't accuse him of this matter unjustly."
Li Yu, who was waiting on the side, had been anxious all night. When he heard Mu Ci's words, he burst into tears with gratitude, and almost didn't cry.
After the emperor finished interrogating Yao Feier last night, he never looked at him or spoke to him again. He thought the emperor was angry with him, or doubted his loyalty.
He is also a poor person who has been taken advantage of without even realizing it.
"I have never doubted his loyalty, I just don't like him inviting wolves into the house." Dugu Liancheng said, turning to look at Li Yu.
Li Yu immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, this slave has made a mistake. Please punish me."
"You really deserve the punishment, just kneel down and serve me like this."
As soon as Dugu Liancheng said these words, Li Yu finally let go of his heart. The emperor punished him, which meant forgiving him.
The empress still had weight in her words, and with just one sentence, the emperor no longer complained about him.
In order to allow Dugu Liancheng to concentrate on handling government affairs, Mu Ci took a rare trip out of Yong'an Palace and planned to go out for a walk.
The moment she walked out of Yong'an Palace, she took a deep breath: "It seems that as soon as I walked out of the palace, my breathing became easier."
Yingchun laughed when she heard this: "I must be bored because I have been stuck in the palace all day. Your Majesty should go out for walks more often."
Si Zhu also echoed.
The four maids accompanied Mu Ci for a stroll in the Imperial Garden, and then went to the banks of the Xihua River.
Not far away, Xihua Palace has not been inhabited for a long time. It stands alone by the river. It is a bit like a beautiful woman who has no one to pity her. She guards such a prosperous beauty every day, but can only look at the river and feel pity for herself.
Just when she was distracted looking at Xihuahe, Qi Luo came closer from a distance.
Ji Rou and the others protected Mu Ci by their side at the same time, their actions were very obvious.
Qi Luo saw it in his eyes and sneered: "As for that, I look like a savage beast?!"
Yingchun barely replied to her. She was a savage beast. She only thought about harming others all day long. She didn't take action herself, but went around arranging others to do it. She was very bad.
"What a coincidence, Concubine Ming is here too." Mu Ci smiled lightly.
In her opinion, it is not a coincidence that Qi Luo appears here, it is obviously intentional.
Maybe Qi Luo's people had already received the news just after she left Yong'an Palace, so Qi Luo came.
Qi Luo looked at the Xihua Palace not far away: "Think about how beautiful Concubine Mu Shu was in the past. At that time, she was the favorite in the harem, but now, people have entered the North Palace, and only the Xihua Palace is left.
She is alone, as if she is mocking Concubine Mu Shu."
"No one can be favored forever. Concubine Ming, you have to be careful. You have been too successful these years." Mu Ci took over her words.
Qi Luo's face darkened.
She originally wanted to use Muxue's today as a metaphor for Mu Ci's future, but instead she was mocked by Mu Ci.
"Thank you for your kind reminder. Don't worry, my future will be as smooth as before." Qi Luo suppressed the unhappiness in his heart: "On your side, you have to be careful. I always hear people say that prosperity must inevitably decline..."
"You don't have to worry about it. I'm still far from being the most prosperous. It will be more practical for me to worry about this issue only after I have defeated all the concubines in the harem, including you, the concubine.
"Mu Ci interrupted Qi Luo.
Just this sentence was enough to make Qi Luo furious.
How else can we say that Mu Ci is unlikable? This woman is so arrogant that people hate her!
But after all, he is also a person who has been immersed in the harem for many years. Qi Luo quickly returned to normal: "I am just kindly reminding you, please don't take it seriously..."
"Look, it's here again. Mingren doesn't tell secrets. Concubine Ming, what kind of virtue do you want me to tell you in person? Who in the entire harem doesn't know that stirring up trouble is your specialty, but you can only act like a bastard.
He's like a turtle with no achievements." Mu Ci impatiently played Tai Chi with Qi Luo.
She has never been afraid of anyone in the harem, and this hypocritical concubine Ming is no exception.
Qi Luo's face was green and red. No one had ever dared to speak so unfavorably to her face. Only Mu Xiuyi, who was an eyesore, was so rude to her face.
