After Mu Ci had dinner in the palace, she went back to Chonghua Palace to find something. It was already afternoon when she left the palace. Shui Lianxin held an umbrella to shield Mu Ci from the hot afternoon sun, and took Mu Ci's hand. Seeing that the big basket in the basket was full of bright red cherries, I had nothing to say and asked, "Do you like this?"

"En." Mu Ci responded with his nose, his mouth was busy and sloshing.

Shui Lianxin thought he was eating cherries, and put her hand on Mu Ci's chin after a while: "Spit out the seeds, stop playing, it's easy to choke."

Mu Ci looked away, ignored him, walked out of the palace gate, Shi Zhi quickly came up to him, pulled Mu Ci to look left and right, he was relieved when he saw that he was unharmed, and stared coldly at the vital parts of Shui Lianxin, and then supported him. Mu Ci got into the carriage.

Mu Ci said vaguely: "Stone, stretch out your hand."

Shi Zhi stretched out his hand obediently, and put it on Mu Ci's mouth wittily.Mu Ci spat out a knotted cherry stalk, then puffed her cheeks and said, "Just throw it in the trash basket in front of any house."

Tianjing City is a big city with a population of one million. There is a street office that specializes in environmental sanitation. Littering is not allowed, so there will be trash baskets on the streets, and there are garbage dumps at the small gates of every big family. Baskets are recycled every day.

Shui Lianxin looked at the cherry stalk with a shocked expression of "struck by lightning".Because he was born of Concubine Xie Chen, Jianying regarded him as a vengeful enemy, and raised him with ill intentions, thinking that there is no sincerity in this world, and he has been in love for many years at a young age, and he knows certain skills.

This is a certain aspect of skills that the men and women in the Goulan courtyard need to practice...

"You are... do you know that this is..." Shui Lianxin was shocked, thinking that Mu Ci didn't understand.

Mu Ci glanced at him lightly, with a magnanimous expression, took back the cherry basket from his hand, picked out one, and rolled it into her mouth with her tongue.Mingming has no expression on his face, his eyes are ruthless, and his fair face is beautiful and holy.The appearance of eating cherries gives people a very charming, even slutty feeling.

X attraction gushes out!

Shui Lianxin's heart suffocated when she saw it, and her heart was blessed. Could it be... Mu Ci knew about it?It is self-evident who is playing this for.Shui Lianxin seemed to see the image of Mu Ci crouching under Mei Rong's body "moving" before his eyes... He was so shocked, his three views collapsed, and he couldn't help but growl: "I'm willing to fall!"

Shi Zhi hadn't gotten the hang of it yet, so he couldn't understand it. He warned in a deep voice, "Water chief official, pay attention to your identity!"

Mu Ci's expression was calm, and she got into the carriage, ignoring Shui Lianxin at all.

In his previous life, he had evolved both mentally and physically, he could learn everything quickly, and he must be top-notch in any skill.It's just a cherry stem, if it doesn't add a bit of spice, how can you deal with Mr. Mei who is in heat when he sees him?

Shi Zhi then climbed into the car, sat opposite Mu Ci, took out the small plate containing sundries in the hidden compartment, and put the knotted cherry stems in it. Watching Mu Ci eat cherries, he couldn't understand the difference between eating a fruit and depravity. Xianggan frowned and asked, "What's wrong with the water chief?"

Mu Ci pulled out the stem and threw it into the miscellaneous tray, fed a cherry into Shi Zhi's mouth, stretched out his index finger and tapped his eyebrows: "Dum Shitou, I'll have someone take you to the red building some other day, and have meat."

Shi Zhi: "..." Is there such a dishonest master?He sternly refused: "No need, I have received relevant training, and I will not indulge in carnal desires." As the commander of the Huqiu Army, he has received training in extorting confessions by torture and facing all kinds of temptations, and knows what is going on.

Shi Zhi only cared about his duties, and asked Mu Ci: "How is the situation in the palace?"

"It's nothing, don't worry, the third brother won't hurt me." Mu Ci said, even when he was furious, Mu Zhan subconsciously didn't hurt him.

As long as Mu Ci is not in danger, Shi Zhi doesn't ask anything else.

Mu Ci looked at Shi Zhi's unfeeling and ruthless face that had not changed for thousands of years, and suddenly leaned over, and whispered in Shi Zhi's ear, "Third brother promised me to marry the male concubine."

Shi Zhi: "..." He petrified on the spot, his expression cracked, and he suddenly felt that he had to prop up the collapsed sky, which was almost as big as Alex.

……

In the palace, Emperor Deguang sat after dinner, and Empress Mei also sat with him, but did not speak.Emperor Deguang looked at him with too many complicated meanings.

Empress Mei has her own news channel, and heard rumors about the Chu king's "no way".Now it looks like a war broke out in the palace of the Supreme Harmony Palace, there are debris everywhere, and there is no clean place, so I know the rumors are true.

Emperor Deguang's love for his ninth brother was not a lie. He sent King Chu into the palace to question him, but in the end his eyes were red, as if he was bullied to the point of crying.When the two brothers came out, it was Emperor Deguang who was holding the King of Chu.The king of Chu's calm expression did not mean that he was injured. It can be seen that Emperor Deguang must have carried the person out because he was afraid that the fragments would pierce the ninth brother's feet, and would rather step on the fragments himself.

It really hurts my liver to put this Ninth Brother at ease.

So, how will this rumor end?

Empress Mei does not want the king of Chu to have trouble, and the king of Chu can be said to be Empress Mei's greatest reliance.Although the King of Chu didn't have any personal friendship with her, as long as the King of Chu continued to restrain himself and abide by the law, and support orthodoxy... Her status as queen and the status of her future children were more secure than anyone else.

And... there is a relationship with Mei Rong.

In fact, in her heart, Empress Mei didn't want her third brother to have a personal relationship with the King of Chu at all.My third younger brother can obviously rely on IQ and ability, so why bother to rely on his face and be famous for being a seductress?Empress Mei sighed, not knowing whether it was a blessing or a curse.Seeing Emperor Deguang's gloomy eyes, she couldn't keep her mouth shut, and asked a question that was not safe but she could learn a lot of information: "Which girl did the ninth brother choose?"

Emperor Deguang shook his head: "I didn't choose any of them, and I still refuse to marry a woman."

Empress Mei knew this was the result, so it was not a surprise.Seeing her calm expression, Emperor Deguang's gaze became even more complicated, almost gloomy, and he thought: Does the queen know that the beard has recently confused the ninth brother?In other words, it was because of the beard that the ninth brother supported the queen.

Or...was it the queen who let the beard entangle the ninth brother?

If it's the last one, then the two sisters and brothers of the Mei family, or even the entire Mei family...isn't that simple.

Seeing Emperor Deguang's more and more unpredictable expression, Empress Mei felt a "thump" in her heart, she didn't dare to speak, and stretched out her hand subconsciously to cover her lower abdomen.

When Emperor Deguang saw this movement, his heart softened for a moment, and he tried to soften his expression, and asked: "The third bearded brother of the queen, what are you doing recently?"

Empress Mei really loves Mei Rong, and doesn't like the derogatory title of Emperor Deguang, and this title personally conferred the title of "General Beihai" on an emperor, and has the official position of governor of the Privy Council. But for the busy courtiers, it was an insult.

Empress Mei thought again and again, not to be openly contradicting and disobeying, but she couldn't bear this insult, and replied meekly: "I am in the deep palace, and I don't have an edict to follow my family, so I don't know the status of the third brother in the family. Situation, left and right are just running errands for Brother Jiuwang and doing some chores. It is his blessing to be able to serve the country."

Mei Rong's main identity is still the business prime minister of Chu Palace, and she has made great achievements through hard work.

Emperor Deguang thought: Empress Mei really is not simple.However, these words are obviously to protect the younger brother, and they did not disassociate or even belittle the younger brother in order to flatter the emperor, but instead won the heart of Emperor Deguang.She was less suspicious of Empress Mei, but she was still angry. She curled her lips and smiled: "Your Mei family...is pretty good!"

It is not easy to teach two siblings.

This didn't sound like a compliment. Empress Mei turned pale, but she still managed to hold on to her aura. She bowed and thanked: "Thank you for the praise from the Jun family. The concubine's family is indebted to the emperor..."

"Okay!" Emperor Deguang interrupted, waving his hand, "I'm in a bad mood today, Empress, don't take it to heart, if you feel unwell, go to rest."

Empress Mei complied softly, but was frightened in the end, a little weak, and shook a bit when she got up.

Emperor Deguang quickly stretched out his hand to support her, seeing that Empress Mei's face was pale, and she didn't seem to be fake.Seeing that the emperor and empress were in harmony during this period, and his son was about to be born, Emperor Deguang didn't want to bully Empress Mei too much, so he was a little more sincere and helped her to comfort: "During this period, for Zhang Luojiu's marriage ,You have worked hard."

"The courtiers and concubines don't feel hard work. The eldest brother is like a father, and the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother. It should be. It's just the ninth brother..."

"I accepted him to marry... the male concubine." Emperor Deguang smiled wryly, not knowing how he would agree to such absurd thing at that time.

Empress Mei also opened her mouth firmly, but her footsteps were unsteady: "What about the Jun family..."

This is boring, and the two brothers are going to poke a hole in the sky again, right?

Emperor Deguang thought to himself: If you know that the third brother with the beard is your third brother who wants to marry the ninth brother, I'm afraid you will be scared to death on the spot.But because Mu Ci didn't say it clearly, Emperor Deguang couldn't talk about it everywhere, what if the ninth brother didn't have such thoughts at all?He said everywhere that it really made the ninth younger brother feel rebellious, and he would not marry unless he had a beard...he had to repent to death.

Emperor Deguang couldn't do anything about his ninth younger brother, so he made indirect remarks and reminded Empress Mei: "No matter what I should do, the ninth younger brother is the king of Chu and has a high position and power. Even a male concubine must be of equal family and clean. You should have heard However, the behavior of your concubine brother recently...is quite unscrupulous."

It's too arrogant, to dare to go out with the king of Chu openly.

Empress Mei knew the consequences of her third brother offending Emperor Deguang, and she trembled again when she heard the words.

Queen Mei's mother is more expensive than her son recently, and Emperor Deguang felt more distressed, so he quickly comforted him: "I just reminded you in advance that you are not feeling well recently, do you want to call Mrs. Cheng Enhou into the palace to speak?"

Empress Mei already understood what Emperor Deguang meant when she heard this. Even if the King of Chu married a male concubine, he must not have any relationship with Mei Rong, otherwise the entire Mei family would be in trouble.She responded softly: "Indeed, the concubine also misses her mother a little bit, thank you for the kindness of the Jun family."

Emperor Deguang knew that the queen understood, so he smiled sincerely, and put his arms around Queen Mei's waist: "You are twins now, you must take care of yourself." Then he said a few heartfelt words to Queen Mei.

Empress Mei returned to the Hall of Renming, and seeing that Emperor Deguang had no intention of staying overnight, she left directly.She was bitter in her heart, and she thought to herself, am I willing to entangle the younger brother I brought up by myself with a man... But can I still meddle in my younger brother's room?These are two big men...

Besides, the other party is the King of Chu, who is the King of Chu?If he is not willing, her third brother will never be able to stand side by side with King Chu no matter what.Even if she wanted to take care of it, no matter how long her arms were, she couldn't get into Chu Palace.The emperor has nothing to do with the king of Chu.

It seems that I can only mention it to my parents at home, and make plans early.

As for persuading Mei Rong... Empress Mei didn't even think about it.

She knows the virtues of her third younger brother best, he is a stubborn donkey who can't walk away and retreat.She was afraid that it would be fine if her family didn't persuade her, but if she tried to persuade her, Mei Rong would not care about it, and she really wanted to fight for the position of the male concubine of King Chu.

Emperor Deguang will go crazy and eat the whole Mei family! !

She, Ni Lin of the emperor's husband, is definitely the ninth younger brother. If anything touches the ninth younger brother, she will blow up this seemingly gentle emperor, and the consequences will be disastrous.

I don't know if the king of Chu can hold on.

……

When Mu Ci left the palace, she first went to Wang Youlun's house.Aunt Xie Wang will definitely know about such rumors, so why worry about him.

Sure enough, when Xie Wang saw Mu Ci, he hugged him and cried all the time, he didn't believe any explanations, he just thought that he lost his health in the cold palace, and wanted to keep Mu Ci for dinner to give him a boost.

After Mu Ci finally comforted her aunt, she saw Wang Youlun crying with tears in her eyes, which really gave her a headache.But Mu Ci is in a good mood, it is always a kind of warmth when someone sheds tears for your pain.He comforted and said, "It's okay, I'm getting better gradually."

Who believes that?Wang Youlun didn't believe it either, he just didn't want to make Mu Ci sensitive, so he finally stopped his tears, just sighed, and said, "Your Highness, how do you plan to deal with the rumors?"

"The rumors stop with the wise."

Wang Youlun sighed, thinking the same as Emperor Deguang, and said: "You should have promised to marry Xiao..."

Mu Ci waved his hand: "My cousin has a marriage contract, so I won't mention the past." He gave Wang Youlun the love handkerchief he found in the Chonghua Palace, and said, "This is the silk that my uncle forgot in the Chonghua Palace. The imperial father gave my prince jade to my uncle for safekeeping, and asked my uncle to give it to me."

In the end, Wang Youlun could only sigh, put back his handkerchief, went to the study to get a box and handed it to Mu Ci, "Return the property to its original owner." He hesitated, and asked, "Your Highness...but you have someone you like?"

Mu Ci just smiled and said nothing.

……

After having dinner at Wang Youlun's house, it was already dusk when Mu Ci returned to Chu Palace. Mou Yu was waiting for Mu Ci in the mansion. There were a lot of official business to be done, and it was almost midnight after finishing it.

Washing up and getting ready for bed, Mou Yu went downstairs to take a bath, Shi Zhi hurriedly chased after him with some reason, and told Mou Yu that Emperor Deguang promised Mu Ci to marry a male concubine.

The disintegrated expression he imagined did not appear on Mou Yu's face, Mou Yu was quite calm, and said: "I knew it a long time ago, although this matter is not easy, but since it is the person that Brother likes, we can only fight for one Let's fight." Then Mou Yu didn't seem to say anything sensational, and told Shi Zhi, "Go upstairs and watch." He went downstairs directly.

Shi Zhi was petrified again. Hearing this, Mou Yu still knew that the male concubine could not be selected?Is it really...impossible, Mr. Mei's identity is really...

When Shi Zhi went back in a daze, Mu Ci was lying on the bed holding the Prince Jade, looking at it by the candlelight.

The quality of the jade is quite good. In the middle there is a word "恋" written by Emperor Tianshou himself. The whole piece of jade on the back is filled with hundreds of "Shou" characters in various fonts the size of rice grains. It should also be written by Emperor Tianshou himself. Master Zhong's engraving is also against the sky.

It seems that Emperor Tianshou spent a lot of thought and love in carving this piece of imperial jade.

Mu Ci's eyes were soft, thinking of the person who was going to give this jade, the corners of his mouth slowly curved into a happy arc...

Seeing that Mu Ci was happy, Shi Zhi felt happy too, and thought: It's true what Mou Yu said, as long as the master wants it, even the stars in the sky, he also wants to pick one for the master.So my uneasy heart settled down. Anyway, I just have to bear with it, and it's not a big deal.

When Mu Ci saw enough, he was ready to stuff the prince jade under the pillow. Shi Zhi quickly hid the smile in his eyes, and softly persuaded: "Master, this thing should be put away, don't put it under the pillow randomly, huh?"

Everyone knows Mu Ci's little problem, she likes to stuff all the little things she carries under the pillow, don't you feel panicked?

The candle flame flickered undetectably, Mu Ci squinted her eyes and looked out the window.

Shi Zhi saw a dark shadow swaying outside the window under the moon, and the hidden weapon in his hand came out of the window mixed with his newly trained inner strength, and asked coldly: "Bold! Who is outside?"
