When the dish came to the table, Mu Ci and Sizhu ate it with gusto, while Yingchun looked at it and became greedy again: "Is snake meat really delicious?"
She had not had a good meal in the past few days and had no meat to eat. Seeing how delicious Sizhu was eating, she was really a little greedy.
"It's not delicious." Although Sizhu responded like this, he ate more happily.
Yingchun simply used her chopsticks, put a piece in her mouth, and couldn't stop eating.
Her move naturally drew ridicule from Si Zhu.
While they were enjoying themselves, someone approached from far away and saw Mu Ci's master and servant having a meal. He fixed his gaze.
When Mu Ci heard the sound, he looked over and saw that he was an acquaintance. He was a little surprised: "King Ling'an?"
The man was wearing a dark green robe and had a tall figure.
His nose was straight, his eyes were peach blossoms, and there was a frivolous smile on his lips. He didn't look like a serious person.
This person is none other than King Dugu Lianqi of Ling'an.
Dugu Lianqi just came to see how Mu Ci was doing in the cold palace, and never expected to see such a scene.
The guard guarding Chenxiang Palace just now reported to the emperor's brother that Chenxiang Palace was attacked by poisonous snakes in the early morning, so he came over on a whim to take a look at the excitement.
I thought that Chenxiang Palace was a miserable place, but I didn't know that it was just the opposite. Mu Ci actually lived a prosperous life in the cold palace.
"Emperor's sister-in-law, you are well." Dugu Lianqi quickly got into the mood after the initial shock.
He sat down in the empty seat next to Mu Ci and said, "I'm here at the right time. I'll catch you something delicious."
Seeing this, Mu Ci silently took a few pieces of snake meat into his bowl.
Yingchun and Sizhu followed suit and hurriedly put the remaining meat into the bowl.
When Dugu Lianqi saw this battle, he knew how unpopular he was.
"The emperor's sister-in-law is too stingy. She didn't even leave a piece of the bone for me?" Dugu Lianqi snatched Mu Ci's chopsticks and took a piece of snake meat to his mouth.
"It's really delicious." Dugu Lianqi sighed after eating.
Mu Ci quickly finished the remaining meat to avoid being deprived of food again.
"Why does a nobleman like the prince have time to come to Chenxiang Palace?" After eating and drinking, Mu Ci finally had time to talk to Prince Ling'an.
"What the emperor's sister-in-law said is wrong. With my friendship with the emperor's sister-in-law, if the emperor's sister-in-law is in trouble, I should come and visit her no matter what. I remember at the beginning, I helped the emperor's sister-in-law convey her love to the emperor's brother through a letter." Dugu Lianqi deliberately said
Bring up the past.
At that time, Mu Ci had not yet married the late emperor, and he admired Dugu Liancheng and asked him to convey his love through a letter.
Unexpectedly, he had been away for a year, and the situation suddenly changed. Miss Mu, who had always said that she would never marry, would actually remarry the late emperor on the wedding day.
The person who could have become the queen is now respected as the queen mother and is still thrown into the cold palace by the emperor's brother. It can only be said that fate has played a trick on people.
"The past is too painful to look back on, so it's okay not to mention it." Mu Ci seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
She was once very naive, thinking that King Ling'an was sincerely treating her well, but later she realized how much King Ling'an looked down on her behind her back.
She thought he was a friend she could talk to, but it turned out to be just wishful thinking on her part.
King Ling'an and Dugu Liancheng were of the same mind and being close to her was just to help Dugu Liancheng deal with the Mu family.
King Ling'an's unruly temper is the reason why people easily trust him.
It's often this kind of person, and you don't even know why you were tricked to death by him.
In this life, she absolutely does not want to have any close contact with King Ling'an, otherwise she will still count his money after being sold by him.
"Yes, what did the emperor's sister-in-law do to anger the emperor's brother and end up in the cold palace?" Dugu Lianqi asked with a smile.
