Mu Yu felt confused: "I don't remember much about what happened last night. I only remember that I felt a little dizzy after returning to the side hall. When I woke up after that, it was already dawn."
"Don't you have any memory of what happened during this period?" Mu Ci asked.
Mu Yu shook her head: "I don't remember this slave..."
Some messy scenes from last night flashed before her eyes, and she was embarrassed to say it. She only remembered that she seemed to be out of character and would cater to King Ling'an.
She thought it was because King Ling'an had drugged her.
"If it wasn't King Ling'an who kidnapped you, who would it be? What was that person's purpose for doing this?" Mu Ci murmured to himself.
For some reason, she always felt that this matter was not as simple as it seemed.
Dugu Lianqi didn't look like he was lying.
That afternoon, there were indeed some bad rumors circulating in the harem.
It is said that Dugu Lianqi raped civilian girls in order to get Mu Yu, and even drugged Mu Yu and took Mu Yu's body.
Mu Yu is one of Mu Ci's most trusted maids, and Mu Ci is Dugu Liancheng's favorite concubine. Because of this incident, Dugu Liancheng wants to accuse King Ling'an.
And all this news came from Yanfu Palace.
When Mu Ci heard the news, his palms became cold.
She suddenly thought of a person, that person was Dugu Lianyun.
The relationship between Dugu Liancheng and King Ling'an has been good since childhood. After Dugu Liancheng came to the throne, he also trusted King Ling'an very much. If Dugu Lianyun used this method to drive a wedge between the feelings of Dugu Liancheng and King Ling'an, he would turn their brothers against each other and isolate them.
Dugu Liancheng, that is the fastest way.
Dugu Liancheng is doting on her now, and Mu Yu is her right-hand maid. If Dugu Liancheng makes a fuss about this incident and turns against King Ling'an, to those who don't know the inside story, Dugu Liancheng's behavior is no different from that of a coward.
.
If Dugu Lianqi was plotted against someone this time, and he learned the news from Yanfu Palace, Dugu Lianqi would definitely feel uncomfortable. From then on, he would hold a grudge against Dugu Liancheng, and it would be possible for the brothers to break up.
If this matter is not handled well, Dugu Liancheng and King Ling'an will never be friends again.
Among all the princes at present, only King Ling'an is devoted to Dugu Liancheng, so their brothers must not turn against each other, otherwise Dugu Liancheng will be isolated and helpless.
Just before this news came out, she had vowed to Mu Yu that she would seek justice for her no matter what, but now she hesitated.
Mu Yuruo didn't know how she would feel if she knew that she wanted to abandon her for the Dugu brothers.
It has to be said that Dugu Lianyun is a good calculator, and he has accurately calculated that this matter will put her in a dilemma. No matter what she does, one of them will be abandoned by her.
Only she knew that Dugu Lianyun was still alive, and only she knew that Dugu Lianyun was behind this plan, so who could she discuss this matter with?
Mu Ci had something on his mind, and everyone who served him could see it.
Only Mu Yu was immersed in grief and anger, rarely showing his face, and had no idea that Mu Ci had something on his mind.
Jingcheng Street.
After Dugu Lianqi heard the rumors about him, he felt unhappy and took Qi Yu to a wine shop for a drink.
Qi Yu also wanted to know what happened that night.
Dugu Lianqi does have many shortcomings, and it is true that he is a playboy. He has indeed coveted Mu Yu for a long time. So when he heard that Dugu Lianqi kidnapped Mu Yu back to the palace and occupied Mu Yu, he believed the rumor.
.
"You don't even believe me, right?" Dugu Lianqi said sadly.
"You've been playing tricks on Mu Yu, so it's not surprising that you would do something like this. Tell me what happened that night first, and maybe I can give you some advice." Qi Yu poured a glass of wine for Dugu Lianqi.
Dugu Lianqi told what happened that night in this way.
"Although I drank too much, I was certain that she appeared on my couch. I thought she had brought it to my door, and I didn't want it for nothing, so I slept with her. At worst, I just gave her a name.
." When Dugu Lianqi said this, his eyes were a little gloomy: "How did I know that she actually falsely accused me of taking her by force afterward?"
"Then have you ever thought about why she suddenly appeared on your bed?" Qi Yu asked back.
Mu Yu has always been unwilling to be with Dugu Lianqi. This is a fact. He has a good relationship with Dugu Lianqi, so of course he also knows about this.
There were many beauties in the palace of Dugu Lianqi, but Dugu Lianqi had been obsessed with Mu Yu in recent years. He even doubted whether Dugu Lianqi was attracted to Mu Yu.
But seeing Dugu Lianqi's flippant attitude towards Mu Yu, he was not sure again.
"This... of course she came by herself." Dugu Lianqi's eyes flashed.
"Did she look normal that night?" Qi Yu asked again.
Dugu Lianqi was speechless this time.
Mu Yu was uncharacteristic that night and took the initiative to throw herself into his arms. He couldn't help but fall in love with her charming look, which was completely opposite to her usual cold and cold demeanor.
"It seems that you knew it was abnormal, but you still did it. Have you ever thought that you are a prince, the brother whom the emperor values the most, and Mu Yu is Empress Xiuyi's personal attendant, and the emperor still loves her so much?
Empress Xiuyi, you have taken Mu Yu by force at this time..."
"I didn't take her by force, she did it voluntarily!" Dugu Lianqi refuted angrily.
"Her so-called voluntary intention is that she was drugged, and her appearance in the palace was because someone deliberately sent her to your bed. That person knew that you were obsessed with Mu Yu, so he found the most appropriate time.
I gave Mu Yu to you. You actually found this thing unusual, but you still followed your heart..."
Qi Yu said with a long sigh: "Although I don't know who is plotting against you, that person's ultimate goal is to alienate the brotherhood between you and the emperor, or there may be some shady conspiracy behind this move."
"You must be overthinking. From what you're saying, it's impossible that that person is interested in the throne..." Dugu Lianqi's voice faded.
He had no interest in the throne since he was a child, thinking that position would only constrain him, and he also knew that he would not be a good emperor, so he expressed his views on the throne from an early age.
Over the years, he was able to be King of Ling'an safely and smoothly, naturally because of his brother's trust in him.
But when he learned that the news came from Yanfu Palace that he had seized Mu Yu, he did feel some resentment towards the emperor. If Qi Yu hadn't reminded him of the seriousness of the matter just now, he would have continued to misunderstand the emperor.
It will only get louder and louder.
"The emperor knows that you are not interested in the throne, but it does not mean that others think so too. After all, this matter is not as simple as it seems on the surface. You have to take it to heart and tell the emperor carefully that you must not have any relationship with him because of this matter.
The emperor has left his heart, and Mu Yu needs to be dealt with properly." Qi Yu said sincerely.
