Mu Ci thought of Dugu Liancheng's expression when he spoke just now.
He is the emperor and is always strict. How could he be joking about something like this?
When she regained her strength, she really wanted to have a good talk with Dugu Liancheng.
Anyway, she didn't believe that Dugu Liancheng could take care of the children himself in the future. He was the emperor and was usually too busy with state affairs. How could he have time to take care of the children? This was said lightly.
Thinking of this, she no longer worried.
For several days, Dugu Liancheng did not come to Yong'an Palace. Mu Ci was relieved when he saw that he did not come, so that she would not have to quarrel with Dugu Liancheng if they disagreed.
When the little prince was more than twenty days old, and one month was getting closer and closer, Mu Ci had been thinking about how to discuss this matter with Dugu Liancheng.
But recently, Dugu Liancheng only hugged the little guy every time she came over and didn't like to talk to him. In addition, there were always many people waiting around, so she had no chance to talk to Dugu Liancheng alone.
Dugu Liancheng seemed to know what was on her mind. The more anxious she became, the more he would not talk to her. During the last few days of her confinement, Dugu Liancheng simply stopped coming.
Seeing that the child was about to be one month old, Mu Ci felt that this was not possible and simply left Yong'an Palace.
"There are still two days until the full moon is over. Can't you wait for another two days?" Yingchun followed Mu Ci anxiously.
She found a hood and put it on Mu Ci.
"It's too hot." Mu Ci just wanted to open it, but was stopped by Sizhu and Yingchun's eyes at the same time.
She could only give up.
When the group of people arrived at Yanfu Palace, everyone saluted Mu Ci.
Mu Ci is now the concubine Chen and the biological mother of the young prince. The emperor is extremely kind to Mu Ci. Who dares to offend such a person?
Wherever Mu Ci goes, no one dares to stop him.
In this way, Mu Ci went all the way to Xinuang Pavilion.
Dugu Liancheng was reviewing the memorial. He seemed very focused and did not notice her arrival.
"Yu'er can't be raised by you!" Mu Ci went straight to the topic as soon as he came.
Dugu Liancheng didn't respond, as if he didn't hear her.
Mu Ci didn't care. She moved a comb-backed chair and sat down very close to Dugu Liancheng. She took the memorial from Dugu Liancheng's hand and said, "Talk to me, I won't waste much of your time."
Dugu Liancheng slightly raised his lips: "There's nothing to say."
He already knew the reason for her coming. She just wanted to let her take care of the child.
But he had already made his decision, and there was no room for negotiation on this matter.
"What if I don't agree to take the child away?" Mu Ci frowned and asked.
"I have made a decision and this matter cannot be discussed further!" Dugu Liancheng said concisely and did not want to continue this topic.
Mu Ci didn't expect him to be so resolute, so she said angrily: "Then tell me, why do you have to take Yu'er with you to raise her? Are you afraid that I can't raise the child well?"
But Dugu Liancheng said to Li Yu: "Li Yu, send Mu Xiuyi back to Yong'an Palace. Take good care of her and don't let her blow the wind."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Li Yu said and went to Mu Ci.
Mu Ci suddenly became angry: "What if I don't bring the child to you? What will you do?!"
This was the child she had worked hard to conceive for ten months, and he didn't even give her a chance to argue before taking the child away, as if the child only belonged to him and had nothing to do with her.
After all, she is also the mother of the child, right?
"I am the emperor!" Dugu Liancheng only gave her four cold words.
Mu Ci laughed angrily at him. He was the emperor, he could do whatever he wanted. He was the king, and she was the minister, so she couldn't say no to his orders.
"I obey the decree!" Mu Ci replied with three cold words, then rolled up his sleeves and left.
Dugu Liancheng looked at Mu Ci's back, opened his mouth, wanted to say something, but still didn't speak.
Now that she has made such a decision, there is nothing to regret. Mu Ci has a weak nature, and he has never seen her care about anything, but since she became pregnant, her whole person has changed.
At that time, he knew that if Mu Ci really cared about someone, it would be her closest relatives, their children.
As long as Xiao Yu'er is in his hands, Mu Ci can never escape his control.
Mu Ci did not hold the next full moon banquet for the young prince. Although Dugu Liancheng came, she did not say a word to him.
The two fell into a cold war.
Mrs. Rongguo noticed this strangeness and spoke to Mu Ci alone for a few words, but after knowing the whole story, she could only sigh.
Accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. No matter how favored Mu Ci is, the person above him is also the king of a country. The little prince is only one month old and has to leave his mother's side. No wonder Mu Ci is angry.
But the emperor has already made up his mind, what can these ministers say?
"The emperor is the king after all, and you can't get angry with the emperor because of this matter, otherwise it will be difficult for you to find a way in the harem." Mrs. Rongguo comforted Mu Ci, implying that she still hoped that Mu Ci would give in.
Mu Ci let out a breath and said after a while: "My daughter was just thinking about the child I gave birth to in ten months of pregnancy. He took it away with just one sentence just because he is the emperor. This is so unfair."
"The Emperor did not take His Highness away, but kept him by his side. You are still His Highness's biological mother. If you want to see His Highness go to Yanfu Palace, that's all." Mrs. Rongguo said, even though she felt it was a bit far-fetched.
But at the very least, the emperor did not leave His Highness to be raised by other concubines in the harem, which is a blessing among misfortunes.
A sarcastic smile appeared on Mu Ci's lips: "I just want to see how he will take care of the child."
If Dugu Liancheng casually left Yu'er to be raised by other unknown people, she would definitely find a way to get the child back.
Mu Tong didn't know that there was a quarrel between Mu Ci and Dugu Liancheng. He was a little worried when he saw that Mu Ci was too cold towards Dugu Liancheng.
He took some time and chatted with Mu Ci for a few words, but Mu Ci was unwilling to say more.
Because Mu Tong admired the emperor Dugu Liancheng very much, she didn't want to make it difficult for Mu Tong to do it if it was not necessary. It would be useless for Mu Tong to know about this kind of thing.
"Brother, just take care of yourself. The border has been quiet recently, so you can stay in the capital and spend more time with your mother. Also, it's time to put brother's marriage on the agenda. When will brother bring that beloved woman over, let me and
Mother, would you like to take a look?" Mu Ci cleverly changed the subject.
When mentioning this matter, Mu Tong was a little embarrassed: "She, she is in the capital. I will take her to the palace another day for you to see."
Mu Ci was pleasantly surprised when he heard this: "Okay! It's better to choose a day than to hit the sun, let's do it tomorrow."
Anyway, her child was snatched away by Dugu Liancheng, so she had plenty of time. She didn't believe that Dugu Liancheng could take care of the little guy on his own.
No matter what, the child still needs to eat. Without her as a mother to feed him, would the child eat other people's milk?
In the past month, the child has never left her mother, and Dugu Liancheng suddenly took him away at his request. Wouldn't he be tortured by the child?
