"The emperor is out of the palace to do business, and I don't know where the emperor is. When the business is done, the emperor will naturally return to the palace, so you don't need to worry about me." Mu Ci replied quietly.
"You have never had an emperor in your heart, so of course you don't worry about the emperor's life and death!" An Rong frowned coldly: "It's not you who harmed the emperor, right?"
Mu Ci's son has been established as the crown prince. If Mu Ci feels that the emperor is an eyesore, it is very possible to exclude the emperor. After all, Mu Ci once committed regicide and committed such a treasonous act.
Mu Ci simply laughed angrily: "Aren't you playing the role of aloof from the world recently? Why, can't you calm down?"
Such a domineering Concubine An is not in line with her temperament.
An Rong straightened her expression and spoke righteously: "If you have bad thoughts towards the Emperor, I will definitely avenge the Emperor, so you have to do it yourself!"
After saying these words, An Rong rolled up her sleeves and left.
After leaving Yong'an Palace, her heart was still hanging, so she went to find Shen Manyun.
Shen Manyun didn't expect An Rong, a distinguished guest, to come to her door. She couldn't hide her surprise: "Why is sister An here?"
An Rong felt heavy and explained her purpose of coming: "Don't mention it, I just went to see Concubine Chen."
"Why are you looking for her all the time? Haven't you been in contact with her for a long time?" Shen Manyun was a little surprised.
"The emperor has not returned to the palace for a long time, and there were many rumors in the previous dynasty. I was worried about the emperor's safety so I went to see Concubine Chen." An Rong said and took a sip of tea: "Aren't you worried about the emperor?"
"The emperor is outside the palace, what is the use of looking for Concubine Chen?" Shen Manyun looked puzzled.
"I was worried that Concubine Chen had harmed the emperor, so I went to ask Concubine Chen. As you know, Concubine Chen is ruthless and can do anything. It is also possible to commit regicide." An Rong Express your concerns.
Shen Manyun laughed when he heard this: "Didn't you shake hands with Mu Ci and make peace? Why are you worried about her doing such a thing?"
An Rong sighed softly: "How can I not be worried? Concubine Chen behaves strangely, and the emperor loves Concubine Chen so much. I'm afraid that just like last time, Mu Ci will murder the emperor again."
Seeing her worried look, Shen Manyun suddenly looked directly at An Rong and asked, "So you like the emperor so much."
An Rong was stunned for a while before replying: "We are all the Emperor's women, shouldn't we all like the Emperor?"
"No, I think you care more about the Emperor than I do. After all these years, I don't think you care about the Emperor. What's going on today -" Shen Manyun looked An Rong up and down.
Under her gaze, An Rong looked back calmly: "The emperor is our husband, isn't it right to care about him?"
Shen Manyun shook his head: "No, you care so much about the emperor. I think you seem to like the emperor. I care about the emperor because I like him from the bottom of my heart. What about you, do you also like the emperor?"
An Rong was speechless when asked by Shen Manyun for the first time.
Seeing that she was no longer speaking, Shen Manyun sighed softly: "It seems that I guessed it right. What I'm curious about is when did you like the emperor, but I didn't find out at all. I thought that this harem would never happen again. No woman likes the emperor as much as I do."
After the initial silence, An Rong replied quietly: "Isn't it normal to fall in love with a man like the emperor? He was our husband, and I gave birth to a child for him. Anyway, I don't know when, I will The emperor is interested. If you really want me to tell you a specific time, I can't tell you, but I don't think there is any problem with it. Is it because I like the emperor that my sister doesn't recognize me as her sister? "
Shen Manyun laughed when he heard this: "That's not true. Sometimes I feel that Sister An is too thoughtful and I can't figure it out. Just like the fact that my sister is happy with the emperor, it was originally a good thing, but she also kept it a secret. If I hadn't noticed it myself today, my sister would have planned to hide it from her for the rest of her life, right?"
An Rong replied sternly: "Sister, I think too much. I also know my temper. I don't like to talk about everything. This kind of thing is even more difficult for me to talk about. In addition, I like the emperor so much, so I'm afraid of my sister." If you know that you don't like me, I won't even dare to say it."
She said, holding Shen Manyun's hand with a sincere expression: "Sister, please don't argue with me."
Seeing her like this, Shen Manyun laughed and said: "If it were anyone else, I would definitely not obey, but because she is my sister, I will accept it reluctantly. As my sister said, the emperor's safety is the most important, why don't we ask Mu Mu again? Ci, to see if she knows the whereabouts of the emperor?"
"No need, I've asked before, and Concubine Chen doesn't look like she's lying. Now we can only wait for the news." An Rong said and stood up: "Then I'll go back first."
"I'm sending my sister off."
Shen Manyun escorted An Rong out of the palace. Watching An Rong's chariot go away, her eyes grew colder.
Today, An Rong couldn't control her anger and revealed her thoughts about the emperor. No matter how cunning a person is, the person who knows how to hide will still show his flaws. If An Rong is as cunning as An Rong, wouldn't she be in trouble?
She waited to see how long An Rong could hide.
The most important thing now is the emperor's safety. She had already inquired secretly from Mu Ci, but she only knew that the emperor was in trouble, which was why he had not returned to the palace for a long time.
Judging from Mu Ci's tone, the emperor is in trouble this time, and may even be in danger of his life...
The next two days were very difficult for Dugu Lianqi. He did not even dare to go out of the palace gate for fear of encountering courtiers who would interrogate him about the emperor's whereabouts.
Later, he simply hid in Yanfu Palace and did not even attend the morning court, just to avoid being pressed by the officials.
Mu Ci was found by Dugu Lianqi in Yanfu Palace again.
After listening to Dugu Lianqi's words, she said quietly: "Just hold on a little longer, the emperor will come back."
If Dugu Liancheng is okay, he will definitely return safely. Now she can only wait for the news. In addition, Xiang Ling also left the palace to find someone, she always feels that Dugu Liancheng is still alive.
It was probably because he was seriously injured that he was delayed outside the palace.
"Aren't you afraid of what might happen?" Dugu Lianqi couldn't hide his anxiety.
Even he was worried that the emperor's brother had some shortcomings and would never come back. Why was Mu Ci so calm?
"The emperor will be fine. Yu'er and I are still in the palace. He said when he left the palace that he would come back as soon as possible. He is not a person who breaks his word." Mu Ci still gave the same answer.
Dugu Lianqi looked at Mu Ci with complicated eyes. He really wanted to say a few words of truth to shock her and make her see the reality clearly. It would be more realistic to help the crown prince ascend the throne as soon as possible.
However, this kind of Mu Ci is the woman that the emperor's brother loves, right?
It’s no wonder that the emperor’s brother has been very devoted to Mu Ci over the years. At the critical moment, it was obvious that Mu Ci was a woman worthy of being favored.
"I hope you are right." Dugu Lianqi finally did not pour cold water on Mu Ci.
