Mu Yu turned back to Dugu with a sweet smile: "I'm just telling Dong'er some trivial matters. Dong'er, go down, I don't need your service here."
"Yes, Princess." Dong'er saluted Dugu Lianqi and left in a hurry.
Dugu Lianqi looked at Dong'er's hurried back and felt that this maid was not usually so impatient. Today she looked like she had something urgent. Did Mu Yu tell her something?
It's just that Mu Yu didn't want to say anything, so it was hard for him to ask again.
"Are you still used to living in Ling'an Pavilion?" Dugu Lianqi was speechless.
On weekdays, Mu Yu was never seen leaving the Western Room. Except when dining, the couple rarely had the chance to see each other. They didn't look like a couple at all.
"Everything is very good here, I like it very much." Mu Yu responded with a decent smile.
Dugu Lianqi couldn't find anything wrong with her perfect smile, but he knew that she was still estranged from him, unlike when they were newly married.
If he didn't think about it carefully, he wouldn't be able to remember what Mu Yu looked like when he first entered the palace.
The two of them sat there for a while. Dugu Lianqi felt bored and stood up to leave.
As soon as Dugu Lianqi left, Qiu'er said to Mu Yu: "When the prince comes again next time, the princess should be more proactive."
Even if the princess doesn't like the prince, there's no need to make it so obvious.
Just now she felt embarrassed for these two people.
"It's not necessary. I don't care about the prince." Mu Yu replied calmly.
She did not seek Dugu Lianqi's favor, nor his power, and even her initial desire to have a child as sustenance faded away.
That being the case, why does she need to force herself to do something she doesn't want to do?
Her original idea was not to get married, and her current situation is similar to that before she got married.
Little did she know that Dugu Lianqi had not gone far and happened to hear her words.
Qier found that her prince suddenly had something on his mind. She took a few more curious glances and found that his eyes were staring straight ahead. She didn't know what he was thinking, so focused.
"If the prince has something on his mind, he might as well tell the slave, and the slave can give the prince some advice." Qier said curiously.
Dugu Lianqi came back to his senses and shook his head: "Even if I say it, you can't help me with my advice."
"How can the prince be sure that this slave will not come up with any ideas?" Qier snorted softly.
Dugu Lianqi thought for a while and then repeated Mu Yu's previous words.
"I think this is a good thing. Since the princess entered the palace, except for being in charge of the palace's ministers, she has never restricted the prince in other matters. The prince always likes freedom and does not like to be controlled. The princess never inquires about the whereabouts of the prince. Isn't this good?
"Qier said she couldn't understand the prince's thinking.
This is something that should make the prince happy, so there is nothing to worry about.
"That's what I said, but do you think it's appropriate for the princess not to regard me as her husband?" Dugu Lianqi asked in return.
Qier whispered in a low voice: "If the princess really wants to take care of the prince, the prince will be unhappy again."
Dugu Lianqi heard her words with keen ears and felt that there was some truth in her words.
Mu Yu didn't care about his good intentions, but if he really wanted to control his actions and compete with other women, he would probably be disgusted.
"Actually, I can't understand why the prince asked the princess to move into Ling'an Pavilion." Qier suddenly said.
There was a woman who lived in Ling'an Pavilion when the prince was getting married. She was also the princess. She was a newlywed, so she could understand. Later, the princess got the idea and moved to Lingyu Pavilion herself.
This time, the prince took the initiative to let the princess move into Ling'an Pavilion. To be honest, she was surprised.
"Rong'er wants to live in Lingyu Pavilion. As the hostess, the princess can't live in a worse place than Rong'er. Therefore, only Ling'an Pavilion is suitable for the princess to live." Dugu Lianqi expressed his thoughts.
Qier looked carefully at Dugu Lianqi's expression and found that he was not joking.
"The prince respects the princess very much." She muttered again.
"It was the emperor's sister-in-law who arranged for the princess to marry into the palace. I promised the emperor's sister-in-law to treat the princess well, and I am not a person who breaks his word." Dugu Lianqi said about this, "I don't know if I have
Be kind to the princess."
Qier was silent this time.
At the very least, the prince is not a good husband. He has so many concubines, beauties who are endlessly favored, and the concubine Rong'er who was the first to conceive an heir.
Fortunately, the princess didn't care about this and never got jealous, so the palace was able to remain calm.
"Well, what's the point of telling you this? If that incident hadn't happened, I wouldn't have been able to marry her into the palace." Dugu Lianqi sighed softly.
At least Mu Yu didn't show any displeasure after marrying into the palace. Is that enough?
On the other side, Dong'er quickly arrived near the silk and satin shop after leaving the palace.
But she waited for a long time, but no one from the palace showed up. She waited another two-quarters of an hour before she was finally sure that Rong'er would not come here.
It seems that this place may just be a message, and the place Rong'er wants to go is not this shop.
In the end, she had no choice but to return to the palace to report the news to Mu Yu.
Over there, after leaving the palace, Rong'er went to the suburbs of Beijing to meet with An Rong.
An Rong wore a curtain hat and had already taken her seat: "What do you have with me? I said that I will not meet you unless necessary."
If the people in the palace knew about her association with Rong Er, it would only lead to death.
"Of course I have something important to do with the imperial concubine. When I gave you the lovesickness Gu, what happened after the emperor took it? You said there was a way to get rid of the empress, how did it go?" Rong'er explained his purpose.
Only by removing Mu Ci, could Mu Yu, the princess, be abandoned by King Ling'an. Ever since she moved to Lingyu Pavilion and learned that the emperor was very fond of her but still cared about Mu Yu's feelings, she knew that the situation was not good.
.
She knew that Mu Yu was right. She had the support of King Ling'an behind her, but Mu Ci had the support behind Mu Ci.
She has also heard about Mu Ci's methods. If this woman is not deposed, she will never have the possibility of becoming a princess. This is because King Ling'an values Jinshang, and he also respects Mu Ci, the emperor's wife.
Otherwise, she would not be eager to see An Rong and want to know how An Rong's plan to abolish Mu Ci is going.
"I can decide for myself whether this kind of thing is urgent or not. There is no need for you to come to me about this kind of thing again in the future. I spent a lot of effort to leave the palace today." An Rong heard Rong Er's words.
When asked about this matter, his face turned ugly.
Seeing that An Rong's answer was perfunctory, Rong'er lowered her face and said, "It seems that the imperial concubine has no plan. Is the empress too strong or the imperial concubine is too weak..."
"Insolent!" Nanny Peng shouted angrily when she saw Rong'er being so rude.
Rong'er glanced at the furious Nanny Peng and curled her lips with a sneer: "The imperial concubine is not even angry, why are you, a slave, so angry?!"
"Mammy, don't be rude to Concubine Rong." An Rong glanced at Mammy Peng with indifferent eyes.
