Sizhu has served Mu Ci for so many years and has never seen Mu Ci look embarrassed.
Such a queen looks very strange and feels natural. It seems that this is the most real and flesh-and-blood queen.
The empress in the past was very beautiful, but she always lacked some popularity.
But the empress in front of her is so vivid and beautiful that people can't take their eyes away.
After a while, the heat on Mu Ci's face gradually dissipated, and she patted her face lightly, not knowing what had happened to her.
"Sizhu, do you feel that the emperor is different from before?" Mu Ci asked softly.
Sizhu shook his head: "My servant doesn't notice any difference. Is the Emperor different from before?"
Mu Ci sighed softly: "Really?"
Is it just that she thinks too much?
But she clearly felt that Dugu Liancheng was different from before, not in appearance, but in temperament. After all, she would feel pressured if she was looked at by him for a long time, as if his eyes could see through everything about her.
This feeling was inexplicable, and Sizhu certainly could not understand her complex feelings.
"Your Majesty, it's a good thing that the Emperor is back. Don't think too much. I don't know the origin of that Yuzhi, but he seems to be very familiar with the Emperor, and he claims to be the Emperor's savior. I feel that Your Majesty should be on guard against this Yuzhi.
Girls are better." Sizhu expressed his worries.
Mu Ci nodded: "Isn't she the emperor's savior? We should be grateful to her."
But what she didn't say was that she didn't like Yuzhi's familiarity either, as she seemed to be very close to Dugu Liancheng.
But he is Dugu Liancheng’s savior, so we can’t drive him away, right?
After returning to Yong'an Palace, Mu Ci was immersed in his own thoughts.
Yingchun saw Mu Ci's dejected look and asked Sizhu, "What's wrong with you? It's like you've lost your soul."
"The empress asked me if the emperor was different from before. I didn't find any difference in the emperor. When the emperor came back, the empress liked it, but the emperor brought back another girl..."
Sizhu told Yuzhi's situation in this way.
"It's true that the emperor finally returned to the palace and brought back a beauty. How does this make the empress feel?" Yingchun scolded lightly.
"Keep your voice down. It's a good thing that the emperor has returned safely. Don't let the empress hear these troublesome things. Furthermore, the emperor already has a harem of three thousand, and he has never been close to other beauties. No matter how many more people enter the palace, they won't be able to shake her.
The status of empress." Sizhu believed that foreign troubles were the most important.
Whether the emperor's empire can be preserved is still a question. How can the emperor have extra thoughts about romance?
"There is some truth in what you say. I'm afraid that the emperor likes the new and dislikes the old..."
This time, before Yingchun could finish her words, Sizhu covered her mouth and dragged her out of the inner room.
Mu Ci listened to the conversation between the two of them.
It’s not like I haven’t seen a woman around Dugu Liancheng before. The three palaces and six courtyards in the harem alone are enough, right?
But she never took it to heart, just because she didn't care about Dugu Liancheng.
It's different now.
Today I saw that Dugu Liancheng brought a woman into the palace, and that woman was a beauty completely different from her. If she were Dugu Liancheng, she would have been attracted to such a beauty.
At that moment, she did not deny that she felt uncomfortable. Whether it was jealousy or not was another matter. She would not be too happy anyway.
This was the first time in her life that she had seen herself like this. She felt strange to herself, let alone Yingchun and their closest attendants?
That night, Mu Ci suffered from insomnia for the first time.
She was originally waiting for Dugu Liancheng to come to her. After all, he said he would come over to see her and Yu'er later, but he broke his promise.
As an emperor, what he says is an imperial edict. How can he not keep his word?
By chance, she took his words seriously, thinking that he would come to find her, but when she got there, Dugu Liancheng didn't show up either.
Just when Mu Ci was feeling depressed, Yingchun's voice sounded outside the tent: "My queen, can't you sleep?"
Mu Ci simply sat up and said, "Well, I'll get up and read for a while."
When Yingchun heard this, he immediately found the books Mu Ci usually read, some of which were medical books and some books on the art of war.
Mu Ci picked up a book and read it.
Yingchun held it in for nearly a quarter of an hour before she spoke the truth: "Mother, you have held the book upside down."
She was now certain that the empress was waiting for the emperor to act like this.
In other words, the empress finally came to her senses and fell in love with the emperor?
Firstly, she thought this was a good thing, and secondly, she felt that people like the empress should remain cold to the end and should not be tempted by anyone, even if that person was the emperor.
In addition, the emperor just returned to the palace and brought back the beauty, no wonder the empress couldn't sleep.
Mu Ci was stunned for a moment, then realized that he had indeed held the book backwards.
She held her forehead and couldn't laugh or cry for a moment.
"Do I look stupid?" Mu Ci couldn't hold back his laughter for a while.
"Even if she is stupid, she is also very cute. I have never seen your empress as cute as she is now." Yingchun's mouth seemed to be covered with honey.
Mu Ci smiled and said, "You are always good at saying nice things to me."
Yingchun shook her head and patted her chest and replied: "I am telling the truth every word, and I am definitely not trying to coax the empress. The empress is not only the cutest woman I have ever seen, but also the most beautiful woman. So the empress does not need to worry about the emperor being seduced by other beauties."
Let’s go. Now that the Emperor has the Empress, how can he care about other vulgar fans?”
The corners of Mu Ci's lips raised: "In your eyes, I am good at everything, right?"
"Of course!" Yingchun's voice increased, indicating that what he said was true and not false.
Mu Ci and Yingchun chatted for a short while, and the depression in his heart dissipated.
Well, at this hour, he will definitely not come.
Furthermore, she should believe that he is the one. Since he came to the throne, she has always been the only woman, and the other concubines in the harem are just decorations. How could there be any reason for him to become careless and unlucky after leaving the palace?
As for Dugu Liancheng hating women, doesn't she know best?
"Your Majesty, please sleep peacefully. I can guarantee that even if a beauty throws herself into the Emperor's arms, the Emperor will still be Liu Xiahui and will not even look at other women!" Yingchun added with a smile.
"Okay, I'll take a rest, and you can take a rest too, go ahead." Mu Ci waved to Yingchun.
Yingchun retreated as promised.
It seemed that because he had chatted with Yingchun for a while, Mu Ci fell asleep as soon as he lay down.
She didn't know that Dugu Liancheng came quietly after she fell asleep, stood in front of the couch and looked at her for a long time, and did not leave until it was almost time to go to court.
Dugu Liancheng just walked out of Yong'an Palace, and Yuzhi who was waiting outside greeted him: "Your Majesty, I only have one request, and that is to be your concubine in the harem. I am not competing with Concubine Chen for you, but..."
