Dugu Liancheng looked away with a cold expression, turning a blind eye to Mu Ci's greetings.
Mu Ci had long been accustomed to his attitude, but the little Yu'er in her arms was unwilling to be left alone. She became excited as soon as she saw Dugu Liancheng, and opened her fat little arms to ask Dugu Liancheng to hug her.
Because he couldn't speak yet, he could only make babbling sounds, squirming in Mu Ci's arms.
In addition, the child is good-looking and lovable, so everyone's attention was attracted by the cute little prince, including the aloof and cold-hearted Dugu Liancheng.
In the end, he couldn't resist Xiao Yu'er's temptation and reached out to hug the little guy.
Xiao Yu'er, who was about to cry, started laughing as soon as she came into Dugu Liancheng's arms, making babbling sounds from time to time.
With this living treasure around, the other concubines became the background and had no role to interrupt.
Mu Yao couldn't take her eyes away when she saw such a cute child. She felt a little itchy: "Your Majesty, can I give Yu'er a hug?"
"No!" Dugu Liancheng refused simply, not caring about Mu Yao's face at all.
Mu Yao was a little disappointed and secretly muttered a stingy voice.
Seeing this, Mu Ci said to Dugu Liancheng: "Your Majesty, please let Yao'er hug Yu'er."
There was no movement at all in Dugu Liancheng, as if he didn't hear Mu Ci's words.
Mu Ci had no choice but to remain silent.
Dugu Liancheng's current behavior is more like he doesn't want his mother after having a son. Of course, this is also the result of his own doing.
"Then your Majesty, please give me Yu'er, and I won't disturb you swimming in the river." After a moment of silence, Mu Ci felt that this was not the way to stand, so he wanted to reach out and take Xiao Yu'er.
Dugu Liancheng turned around and got on the painting boat.
The other concubines immediately followed, but Mu Ci hesitated.
"His Royal Highness's safety is the most important, and the empress must follow quickly." Yingchun was so anxious that she pushed Mu Ci onto the boat.
Mu Ci turned around and glared at Yingchun, who looked innocent: "If you don't get on the boat, Your Highness will leave."
Mu Ci had no choice but to follow the boat.
Yingchun was right, she was really worried about letting Xiao Yu'er stay with so many concubines in the harem. Nothing was as important as the safety of her children. Even if Dugu Liancheng disliked her, she would make the same decision.
In this way, Mu Ci got on the boat. She took a seat closest to Dugu Liancheng because she wanted to keep a close eye on Xiao Yu'er.
Others were very upset when they saw this scene. They only said that this woman Mu Ci was too shameless. The emperor obviously didn't like to see her, but she still came forward with a shy face, shameless!
Xiang Ling also looked at Xiao Yu'er from time to time. The more he looked at it, the more he fell in love with it. He couldn't help but said, "Your Majesty, can I give the little prince a hug?"
As soon as she opened her mouth, everyone turned their attention to Xiang Ling.
Everyone else felt that Xiang Ling was asking for humiliation. Mu Yao wanted to hold the child, but the emperor refused to do so, yet Xiang Ling dared to do so.
Mu Ci thought that Xiang Ling was a very special existence in Dugu Liancheng's heart, because Xiang Ling was very favored by Dugu Liancheng in his previous life, and Xiang Ling never fought or robbed her. If she didn't speak, basically no one would find out.
She exists.
Just as she was meditating, Dugu Liancheng had already put Xiao Yu'er into Xiang Ling's arms: "You should hold her better, the prince has made a mistake, and you are the only one to ask!"
"Okay, I will be careful." Xiang Ling carefully hugged the child.
Because she had never held her before and the child's body was soft, she was a little confused when holding her.
Mu Ci watched with fear: "Be careful!"
At this moment, Dugu Liancheng also let out a warning sound, and the two of them said it in unison.
Mu Ci looked at Dugu Liancheng and saw a look of sullenness on Dugu Liancheng's face, as if he was unhappy because of this coincidence.
Everyone else was still immersed in the shock that Xiang Ling could hold the little prince.
Dugu Liancheng was reluctant to hug even Mu Yao, but this time he let Xiang Ling hug him. A dog that doesn't bite is really scary. I didn't realize that Xiang Ling had such an ability before.
It seems that Xiang Ling is a woman who is very loved by Dugu Liancheng.
Others did not see the turbulent undercurrent between Dugu Liancheng and Mu Cizhi, but Mu Yao had a clear view.
It was said that the emperor had completely ignored Mu Ci. According to her, if he didn't care, he would just ignore it completely. How could the emperor be upset because of a small coincidence?
Some people just don’t mean what they say.
"I don't know how to hold a child, so the emperor should do it." Xiang Ling didn't dare to move and simply gave the little one back to Dugu Liancheng.
Mu Ci breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.
At this time, the boat had sailed away from the shore.
Although it is said that we are visiting Xihua River, in fact the scope of Xihua River is limited. We just sit on the painting boat and look at the well-proportioned palace buildings.
Mu Yao teased Xiao Yu'er from time to time, but Xiao Yu'er stretched out her hand toward Mu Ci and made the sound "target" in her mouth.
Actually, what the little guy wants to say is that he wants his mother to hug him.
Mu Ci understood what the child meant. She stretched out her hand to take Xiao Yu'er, but Dugu Liancheng didn't let go, so she could only withdraw her hand.
That's right, she couldn't even see Dugu Liancheng in person before, but now that she has met, can she have a few words with Dugu Liancheng alone to clear up the misunderstanding?
It's been more than half a year. No matter how angry Dugu Liancheng is with her, he won't be as exaggerated as before, right?
"Can you please stay away? Your Majesty and I would like to have a few words alone." Mu Ci looked at the others.
Xiang Ling was happy and responded: "Of course it's okay. Sisters, please get up. Let's go for a walk over there."
Except for Mu Ci, only Xiang Ling was the concubine present, but several people were not convinced by Xiang Ling. This time Xiang Ling opened her mouth, but the others did not buy it.
Shao Jieyu lightly curled her red lips: "What does Concubine Chen have to say that cannot be said in public? It's not something that cannot be seen in the light. My sister also wants to hear it, so Concubine Chen can say it here."
She had made up her mind not to leave.
When she said this, Chen Zhiqin didn't plan to leave. They finally had a chance to get along with the emperor, so why should they give way to Mu Ci?
Although Mu Ci is a concubine, she cannot bully others with her power.
"Yes, my sister also wants to hear what Concubine Chen and the Emperor are whispering." Chen Zhiqin agreed.
The emperor obviously didn't want to whisper anything to Mu Ci, but she didn't avoid it anyway.
As for Mu Yao, the old god just sat on the ground and did not express his position.
Seeing that these people were not cooperating, Xiang Ling could only look at Dugu Liancheng and said: "Your Majesty, look..."
"If you have anything to say, just say it here." Dugu Liancheng said calmly.
As soon as Mu Ci heard what he said, he knew that he couldn't talk to Dugu Liancheng alone this time.
"Then let's do it next time." Mu Ci responded.
Then she stopped asking for trouble and passed the time looking at the various buildings in the palace.
Only Shao Jieyu was the eloquent person at the scene, and with Chen Zhiqin echoing her, the scene was also lively.
