Chapter 44: Heart-to-Heart

"What did the Queen Mother ask you just now?"

As soon as he left the palace, Quan Jingmo couldn't wait to ask Mu Yuxi, for fear that something irreparable would happen if he went late.

"I asked about the time of the patrol, if the emperor hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid that the concubines wouldn't be able to answer."

A hint of clarity crossed Quan Jingmo's eyes, and he was glad that he was right to turn back.

"Let's go."

Mu Yuxi felt extremely relaxed, and her steps seemed a lot lighter.

"Where are you going?"

"Didn't you say you wanted to accompany your concubines for a walk?"

She took his words seriously, Quan Jingmo saw a trace of expectation on her indifferent little face, her bright eyes shone brighter than the stars in the sky, so he couldn't refuse, nodded, and the two of them walked towards the imperial garden together.

Mu Yuxi is in a good mood today, because she was not punished, and even her attitude towards Quan Jingmo is much better, today he spoke for himself several times, she is not a white-eyed wolf, she knows how to be grateful.

"The Queen Mother is really harsh."

Seeing that there was no one around, Mu Yuxi whispered to Quan Jingmo.

"Tell me about it."

Mu Yuxi is really the first person who dares to say bluntly in front of him that the Queen Mother is not.

"The concubine said that the emperor can't be angry."

"Hmm."

"I think the Queen Mother is old-fashioned and mean, and I always feel that her attitude towards you is lukewarm."

"Hmm."

"And I think she is very dictatorial, and the feeling to the concubine is that she wants to monopolize power."

"Hmm."

"I don't like you yet."

"Hmm."

Mu Yuxi's words became more and more unpleasant, but Quan Jingmo just agreed flatly, as if he was listening to something innocuous and insignificant. Mu Yuxi didn't dare to continue, was he angry?

"Your Majesty, the concubines are talking nonsense."

"It's true. How do you tell that? ”

His voice was as calm as water, and he couldn't hear a little ripple, which could only show one problem: Quan Jingmo had already understood this.

"Because at the dinner table, the Queen Mother is always self-centered, and when you occasionally talk about political affairs, her tone is clearly a conclusion rather than a negotiation. Moreover, she does not have the kindness and affection that a mother should have for you. ”

"The Queen Mother doesn't like me. She prefers the second prince. ”

Second Prince, this is the second time Mu Yuxi has heard this name in her mouth. The last time, it was in Wutong County, at that time, when he talked about Leng Mei and Shadow, he mentioned his biological brother, but he sent someone to assassinate him.

Mu Yuxi didn't speak, everyone has childhood scars. She really didn't know anything about what happened when he was a child, because although Quan Jingmo's appearance and personality were exactly the same as the modern Quan Jingmo, and she believed that this emperor was the previous life of the modern Quan Jingmo, but they had a fundamental difference - life experience. One is ancient and the other is modern; One is the emperor and the other is the king of special forces; One is the complexity of the family members, and the other is the simple and clear family background.

"Mu Yuxi, are you worthy of my trust?"

He suddenly turned to look at her, his face carved with deep sadness and a kind of loneliness. Emperors rarely reveal their true temperament in front of people. Moreover, he actually used "I" for her, which was a kind of trust that tore off the disguise.

The ghost sent the gods, Mu Yuxi nodded, just because, at this moment, she felt so sorry for him.

Quan Jingmo didn't say anything else about the second prince after all, and Mu Yuxi didn't ask. She thought: That must be a big, very strict thing.

"Why has your attitude towards me changed so much?"

"Huh?"

Regarding Quan Jingmo's sudden headless words, Mu Yuxi obviously didn't know what to say.

"You have committed the crime of deceiving the king, and it is understandable that I will punish you that day."

He took the initiative to talk to her about getting her to kneel in the Dragon Palace. On that day, in the Royal Dragon Palace, because Mu Yuxi committed the crime of bullying the king, he was punished by Quan Jingmo for kneeling and being slapped. Since then, she has changed, and it has become more and more that Quan Jingmo misses the former her more and more.

He even began to deliberately indulge her, tolerate her mistakes, and help her lie, just to give her a comfortable living environment so that she could still be as lively and ghostly as before, and he didn't even know what was wrong with him.

"The emperor is right. It's the concubine's fault. ”

The mechanical answer, the lifeless face, it was clear that she still hadn't let go of that night. Quan Jingmo sighed silently, trying to suppress the faint anger in his heart, he found that he didn't dare to be angry with her.

"Mu Yuxi, have we seen it before?"

After a long silence, Quan Jingmo actually came up with such a sentence. Mu Yuxi's heart pounded: Why did he say that? She is reborn, and she clearly knows that their relationship is in modern times, but what about him? He hadn't seen himself at all!

"Why did the emperor say that?"

"Familiar. The first time I saw you, I felt so familiar, I had a lot of inexplicable dreams, and there were many inexplicable you in them. ”

Inexplicable things, inexplicable you.

"Maybe it's someone who resembles a concubine. Dream such a thing, the emperor don't believe it. Mu Yuxi, how can he make the emperor dream. ”

Ignoring the shock and emotion in her heart, she calmly said words that would make Kwon Jing strange.

"Mu Yuxi! I've never seen a woman like you! ”

Sure enough, Quan Jingmo was furious, today, it was not easy for him to make a breakthrough to be able to have such a heart-to-heart relationship with her, but what about her? It's always been like that, not moved at all! Even if he punished her too harshly before, he was the emperor, and what he said he did was right!

"The concubine was stupid and lived up to the emperor's expectations."

There was no explanation, no remorse, and even Quan Jingmo couldn't see a trace of panic, so she knelt on the ground calmly, lowered her head, and didn't say a word.

Her current appearance is obviously more obedient than Shen Xiaoxian, but it makes him so irritable.

He wished she was a kitten with only teeth and claws. That kind of her is the Mu Yuxi he wants to see.

"Your Majesty, you are in the Imperial Garden."

In fact, there was a loud cry from the originally quiet place, as if it was far away, it was Hera's voice.

Hera walked quickly in front of them and saw Mu Yuxi kneeling on the ground, and Quan Jingmo's face was also very bad. She knew that the emperor was angry.

"What are you doing here?"

Quan Jingmo asked with a calm face.

"The concubines come here to see the epiphany bloom at night. This epiphany is really interesting, and it is so short-lived that people often ignore it. In the end, this kind of flower can't be put on the table. Your Majesty, do you say yes? ”

Comparing Epiphany to Mu Yuxi, who is now being favored, Hera's mind is afraid that she is really jealous every day.

Quan Jingmo didn't speak, turned around and left.
