In the quiet and quiet corridor, a few palace lanterns were sporadically lit, and the light and shadow swayed as the breeze passed by. When the swaying lights hit Mu Xianyun's body, the light in her eyes also fluctuated.

Gu Mohan stood there in embarrassment, sorry for listening to Mu Xianyun's privacy.

"Did you hear it all?" Mu Xianyun stood still.

"Well, I'm sorry." Gu Mohan stopped in the shadow by the woods.

Under the light, Gu Mohan couldn't see Mu Xianyun's expression clearly, but could only feel a strong sadness emerging from Mu Xianyun's body. Not long after her relatives passed away, another group of relatives who were related to her by blood came to her. Such aggression is not only trapped in this deep palace compound, but even the remaining blood relatives are plotting against each other like this.

Gu Mohan didn't know how to comfort her, so he could only stubbornly stay where he was, silently accompanying her.

Mu Xianyun managed to get in touch with her second uncle, but she still had to pretend to be at odds under Nie Chengrui's surveillance. After finally exchanging information, she was afraid of being seen as a flaw even if she said a few more words, so she had to separate in a hurry. Before he calmed down, he thought that he was being watched again, and only when his mood was agitated, did he show some sharpness. The moment he saw Gu Mohan, his strange mood relaxed a little, and he couldn't help but linger in the uncontrollable sadness. It's probably because Gu Mohan is the only person who has really cared about her besides her relatives.

"Why are you staying where you are? Come up." Mu Xianyun looked at Gu Mohan's looming figure who was standing there in the dark, and greeted her.

Gu Mohan stepped forward and stood in front of Mu Xianyun. Mu Xianyun saw Gu Mohan's reddish eyes, paused for a moment, took her hand and said softly:

"My concubine, please walk with me."

"Okay." Gu Mohan let Mu Xianyun lead her and walked casually with her in the quiet side hall.Behind them is the sound of silk and bamboo, and the brightly lit state banquet venue.

"Concubine, do you like Nie Chengrui?" Mu Xianyun asked straightforwardly.

"Ah? How could I... I don't like him." Gu Mohan replied directly, not caring that Mu Xianyun called Nie Chengrui by his name.

"Then why are you so hostile to me as soon as you enter the palace?" Mu Xianyun then asked.

"This... this..." Gu Mohan stammered, blushing and said embarrassingly, "Isn't it because everyone compares me to you, I haven't won you in any of them, I just want to see Let's see if you're really that perfect."

That's it?There was a question mark on Mu Xianyun's forehead. She didn't expect that Gu Mohan had been targeting her since entering the palace. It was for such a funny reason that she couldn't help but really laughed.

This is the first time Mu Xianyun has laughed heartily in a while. Her smile is hearty and her voice is clear and clear. Gu Mohan can't blame her for laughing at herself. Looking at her smiling face, she also laughs with her Standing up, this smile seemed to dissolve all the barriers between the two of them, and they carried each other further and further away.

The noise behind them was getting farther and farther away. They stopped in the gazebo by the pool. Mu Xianyun was sitting on a chair. For the first time, she lay down on the railing in front of Gu Mohan without manners. The sparkling lake surface and the lotus flowers that were about to bloom let go of their guard against Gu Mohan and fell into deep thought in front of her.

My father noticed that something was wrong with Nie Chengrui, but he didn't expect him to be so ruthless. Some arrangements were made by Nie Chengrui before they came into use. As a result, these arrangements had to be suspended. Under the leadership of Senior Brother Qin, with Nie Chengrui's acquiescence, he was severely suppressed by Song Xiaowen's faction, and other unexposed forces went underground to plan everything in secret.As for the discord on the surface of the Mu family, it was intentionally made by Mu Yufan as early as when he first came out of the mountain. The new royal family of the Nie family would not understand how many schemes such as the Mu family, which has been passed down for thousands of years, will have behind the scenes. Calculated.

Gu Mohan sat beside her, looking at her cold and beautiful face under the moonlight, and her stretched slender waistline, she was stunned.

No one spoke between the two, but the atmosphere seemed so warm and harmonious. I don't know how long it took, Lu Yi hurried over, watching her master and Gu Mohan staying quietly in the gazebo, looking at her family. The master's face was finally relaxed and comfortable, so he couldn't help but stop at the spot, stunned for a while, thinking of the current time, he gritted his teeth and went up.

"Your Majesty, it's getting late, and there is an urgent call from the Imperial Garden."

The moment Mu Xianyun found Lu Yi, she straightened up and returned to her usual dignified appearance. Hearing Lu Yi's words, she regretted that the relaxing time passed so quickly. After getting up, she stretched out her arms to Gu Mohan. hands.

"Princess, let's go back."

Gu Mohan looked at Mu Xianyun's hand stretched out in front of him, vaguely as if he had done the same to others, subconsciously raised his hand to touch Mu Xianyun's slender and soft hand, Gu Mohan's hand was caught Mu Xianyun held it, and Lu Yi held the lamp in front to lead the way. Gu Mohan thought for a while and said:

"In the future, when there is no one, the queen sister will just call me by my name, don't be so unfamiliar."

"Then I'll call you Han'er from now on, and you don't need to call me Queen Sister."

"Then I'll call you Sister Yun from now on."

"Ah."

Under the candlelight, the figures of the two people overlap quietly, warm and beautiful.

At the gate of the Royal Garden, Mu Xianyun let go of Gu Mohan's hand, and she urged:

"Han'er, let's not appear too close in front of people, it's good for you and me."

"I know." Gu Mohan let go of Mu Xianyun's hand, and the two looked at each other tacitly, and Mu Xianyun returned to the state banquet venue first, led by Lu Yi.

"Yun'er, you're back. How are you? Are you all right? Why have you been gone for so long?" Nie Chengrui held Mu Xianyun's hand, looked at her reddish eyes, and asked with concern knowingly.

"Thank you, the emperor, for your concern. The concubine is fine." Mu Xianyun took out the hand he was holding and replied subduedly.

Nie Chengrui felt that Mu Xianyun was pretending to be strong, so he patted her on the shoulder as a comfort.

At this time, Gu Mohan also came in, and she bowed to the two people on the main seat, and returned to her seat without waiting for them to express anything.

"Imperial concubine, she is still a child at heart." Nie Chengrui deliberately said in the direction of Gu Mohan in front of the people who were paying attention to the situation here.

Hearing Nie Chengrui's words, several Feiping's eyes showed jealousy. Gu Mohan didn't care about the eyes of everyone in Nie Chengrui's harem. She was in a hurry to go out just now, and she didn't have time to eat a few bites after the state banquet was served. Picking up the chopsticks to pick up the delicate dishes in front of him and putting them into his mouth, he narrowed his eyes in satisfaction.

Mu Xianyun looked at Gu Mohan and squinted her eyes like a cat, with a genuine smile flashing across her eyes, and she lowered her eyes without revealing anything before Nie Chengrui looked over.

The Mid-Autumn Festival state banquet ended smoothly, and the undercurrents under the banquet were not noticed by others. They were only hesitant.

Not to mention the turmoil in the court, the harem is also bustling. At the beginning, Mu Yufan was powerful, and the concubines in the harem respected the queen Mu Xianyun. I didn't expect that once the situation changed, the big tree Mu Yufan would fall Unfortunately, the queen's family was also taken into the bag by another branch that was obviously different from theirs. Seeing that they couldn't wait to send another daughter of the Mu family into the palace, it was clearly sent here to compete for favor. Seeing that the emperor completely disregarded Mu Xianyun's mood, he was named Concubine Li directly after Mu Xianshuang entered the palace, and he was not punished when Mu Xianshuang deliberately made things difficult for Mu Xianyun. There is also Concubine Gu Gui, who can't beat anyone, who has been making trouble for the queen, and Mu Xianyun's situation has become delicate for a while.

The emperor obviously dotes on Concubine Gu Guifei more, and the Mu family seems to have lost power. Mu Xianyun is obviously isolated and has no chance, except for the title of queen, she has no advantage in the harem.

The concubines with higher status began to covet the post. Nie Chengrui, who intends to let this situation go, is naturally happy to see it succeed. The concubines in the harem are all standing behind the court forces, and the conflicts between them can be more serious. For It is more convenient to control the court by yourself.

In this way, the flames of war inevitably burned on Gu Mohan who was not interested in the queen's position at all.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, Gu Mohan completely stayed in the Yilan Palace. She didn't like to go out. She kept going out earlier just to trouble Mu Xianyun. Now she let go a few days ago and wouldn't Trouble the queen again, so that she doesn't want to go out at all. The people waiting in Yilan Palace are basically stuffed into the palace by Gu Xiaochen. The guards are young and handsome with strong martial arts skills, and they only obey Gu Mohan's orders. As long as you stay in Yilan Palace, you can guarantee your absolute safety.

Therefore, those who want to find Gu Mohan can only visit Yilan Palace.

"I beg your concubine to save my concubine." Wan Concubine knelt down towards Gu Mohan when she saw her.

"This...you get up first." Gu Mohan said with a frown.

"The concubine really came to beg the concubine because she had no other choice. If the concubine doesn't agree to it, the concubine would rather not be able to kneel down." Wan Concubine fell to the ground and said sadly.

"Wan Concubine, you don't tell the truth, you just want Ben Gong to help, don't you think I'm stupid?" Gu Mohan is also someone who has read countless harem novels and harem TV dramas, how could he be easily used by others.

"Concubine...Concubine..." Wan Concubine's tears kept flowing, lying on the ground unwilling to get up.

"You get up first and tell Bengong what it is, so that Bengong can decide whether to help you or not." Gu Mohan said calmly.

Seeing Gu Mohan's unshakable expression, Wanbi had no choice but to stand up, Gu Mohan saw her face pale and trembling, so she said:

"Come here, bring Wan Concubine a bowl of calming tea. When you calm down, I have plenty of time. Let me listen to you slowly."
