"I heard that these three princesses, that is, the second lady of the Mu family, used to have a soft spot for General Chu, and even I have heard a little about it."

"Yes, but this General Chu has just come back, and he is in such a hurry to meet in a hurry, isn't it too ostentatious? These three princes are still here. ”

Several noble ladies were discussing in private, as if they really thought that Mu Qing, who was sitting near them, couldn't hear these words.

"Hehe, if you want me to say, it's a fox girl, I heard that her mother's status is not very good, didn't she still become Mrs. Shangshu back then, but her life is not good, she hasn't survived for many years, this daughter and her mother are not carved out of the same mold?"

The words of those discussions became more and more bitter, and Mu Qing only pretended not to hear them, but the emotions that belonged to the original body in his heart throbbed from time to time, as if to tell Mu Qing how painful and helpless the original body was because of these discussions.

"I just felt a little depressed, so I thought about going out for a walk, and I also told the third prince."

Mu Qing replied to the words of the Jade Princess with a smile, although Bai Lichen was reluctant to talk to Mu Qing, but at this time, he still nodded.

Seeing that her third brother was still helping her speak, the resentment in the Jade Princess's heart deepened.

Why is this woman! Even if she tried her best to marry the third brother, she didn't abide by the woman's morals, and openly met Chu Xuanling in the palace, didn't it make it clear that her third brother died.

"But the Third Emperor's sister-in-law, the subordinate of Princess Fang Caiben, when she passed by the Imperial Garden, happened to see General Chu talking with the Third Emperor's sister-in-law, what does this mean? Could it be that the people under this princess are wrong? ”

The Jade Princess made it clear that she wanted to oppose Mu Qing, and her aggressive tone made the emperor's gaze at her a little sharper.

Although since Mu Qing became the third princess, the emperor also has a good face towards Mu Qing.

It has even brought many benefits to the Mu family, but if the Jade Princess really finds out that the two of them have met in private today, then I am afraid that she will not have any good results.

"Her Royal Highness the princess seems to have misunderstood something, General Chu and I just met by chance in the imperial garden."

Mu Qing's cold sweat flowed down, she knew that she was at a turning point in her fate at this time.

When she made an appointment with Chu Xuanling, she didn't expect that her whereabouts had been targeted by the Jade Princess's people.

In other words, she didn't expect that this little princess would be so hostile to herself, and even didn't hesitate to stare at her every move and say it openly on such an important occasion.

Not only her, but even Chu Xuanling will be troubled by rumors.

She glanced at Bai Lichen, who was sitting next to her, Bai Lichen's face didn't change much, but he didn't want to help Mu Qing speak at all, just sat there watching a play.

It's like all this has nothing to do with you.

Mu Qing also gave up the idea of asking for help with Bailichen.

She struggled to hold up a proper smile on her face, and her hand secretly grasped the knife on the table, and looked at it in her sleeve.

"Chance encounter, is there really such a coincidence happening?"

"Actually, it's not all a chance encounter, and there are some accidents."

When Mu Qing said this, he slashed himself with the knife hidden in his wrist.

The blood gradually seeped out, wetting a large area of the dress.

"When I was in the courtyard, I accidentally scratched my arm, and I exclaimed, and I happened to be seen by General Chu on the side, so General Chu came to care about me, but I didn't expect to be seen by the princess's people, so there was such a misunderstanding."

Mu Qing's face smiled slightly, and then revealed the wound on his arm.

"Because it's just a minor injury, I don't want to disturb Your Majesty and the queen, so I didn't make a noise."

The wound on his hand was still oozing blood, although it was only a small scratch, but it still made people feel a little frightened, and the emperor saw this wound, and his face eased a little.

"So that's the case, it seems that the night in the imperial garden is too dark, so the third princess will be accidentally bruised, but this wound is not serious, it is better to let the imperial doctor come and take a look, it is good to take some medicine, look at this good clothes are stained with blood, isn't it?"

Chen Guifei was the first to react, she was from Mu Qing's side, so she would naturally help speak.

"Your Majesty, why don't you let the concubines take the three imperial concubines to the palace to change their clothes, and then take some medicine?"

The emperor looked at Mu Qing's words, nodded slightly, and acquiesced to Chen Guifei's meaning, and immediately two little maids came over and took Mu Qing to the Yukun Palace of Guifei.

If other people can't see this scene of Fang Cai, it is understandable, only Bai Lichen was sitting on the edge of Mu Qing, and when she cut her arm with a knife, he saw it with his own eyes.

It's too late to stop it, and it's out of place, so you can only watch like this.

He suddenly regretted that he had been a cold observer at the beginning.

As the third prince of Baili Kingdom, he has long developed a very calm temperament after so many years, and he is not such a high-spirited person, I don't know how to do such an impulsive thing today.

Mu Qing, who was taken away by Chen Guifei, looked at the wound on his wrist with his face as usual.

She also felt that what she had done was a little incredible.

Why would you think of asking Bailichen for help? He didn't have much to do with himself, and his original identity was at best just a princess who had never met him.

But she actually thought that Bai Lichen could stand up and help herself defend herself at that time.

It's so naïve.

Mu Qing smiled bitterly, the day she came to this world, she made up her mind to live by her own ability.

"I didn't expect the third princess to be such a ruthless character."

When Mu Qing was applying medicine to her wound by the maid, Chen Guifei walked in happily, her face was still the same as at the banquet, with a smile of some kindness.

But the words that came out made Mu Qing understand that her small movements had been noticed by her.

"The concubine is aware of it, and the concubine is also anxious, so she came up with this method, otherwise she would not dare to do this!"

Mu Qing knelt down for a while, and after a while, the concubine sighed softly.

"I understand that you are a smart person, if you really gave it privately, you would not choose this time, but no matter what, you should not have been caught at such a time, if it weren't for your near-self-harming means...... This palace can't save you. ”

Looking at Mu Qing's wound halfway through the medicine, Chen Guifei was slightly stunned in her heart.

Fang just looked at this Mu Qing at the banquet, and his face did not change in the slightest, which is a skill that ordinary people do not have.

If there was a little flaw leaked, the emperor would probably not believe it.

"Thank you Niangniang for rescuing, the concubine will not forget Niangniang's kindness."

"It doesn't have to be this way."

Chen Guifei asked the maid beside her to help Mu Qing get up.

"Hong'er thanks to you for taking care of him, he is a person who can't sit still, and he is close to his third brother."

Chen Guifei is Bai Lihong's biological mother, so she naturally knows that Bai Lihong loves to go to the Three Princes' Mansion to find the Three Imperial Concubines some time ago.

Chen Guifei didn't embarrass Mu Qing, and after letting the maid give her medicine, she put on a new set of clothes, and the banquet happened to be over, so she directly gave a sedan chair and sent it to the carriage outside the palace.

"The third prince doesn't know how to do it today, so he won't help you speak, although this palace has raised him for a period of time after the death of the former queen, but he doesn't know his temper and temperament very well, everything still depends on you."

Chen Guifei touched Mu Qing's hand and didn't say anything more.

When the sedan chair arrived at the carriage, Bai Lichen was already waiting, and he was still sitting in the carriage as before, still with obscure books in his hands.

"Is the wound healed?"

But he took the initiative to talk to Mu Qing.

"Okay, Chen Guifei Niangniang found a doctor to come over and give medicine."

Mu Qing didn't bother to look at it, and answered softly, and the two of them didn't speak again.

She didn't ask why Fang Cai Bailichen didn't help herself speak, but just looked at the wound on her wrist intently.

The wound was not very deep, the doctor applied medicine and bandaged it, and now it is no longer bleeding.

But there is still a bit of a tingling sensation.

Today's events hit her hard.

I originally thought that with the memory of modern society, I was reborn into this body, and I could handle everything with ease, but I didn't expect that this was not the case.

"I'm sorry, I didn't handle this matter well, I shouldn't have met with General Chu in the palace."

Mu Qing took the initiative to admit her mistake, just like what Chen Guifei said, it was a very irrational thing for her to meet Chu Xuanling at the celebration banquet.

This time, the Jade Princess's subordinates didn't see it really, so they were confused, if it was someone from the queen's side, what would the result be?

Not only is her life not guaranteed, but she may even implicate Chu Xuanling and Bai Lichen.

“……”

Hearing her words, Bai Lichen raised his head, and at this time Mu Qing noticed that the pages in his hand had not been turned a single page.

"If I hadn't stood idly by at the banquet, you wouldn't have had to do that."

Bai Lichen said this, and actually took the initiative to stretch out his hand and gently pulled the wrist on Mu Qing's hand.

The wound was wrapped in gauze, revealing a faint bloody color, which was not noticeable.

"Don't meet with Chu Xuanling next time."

Why?

Mu Qing was almost about to blurt out this question, but looking at Bai Lichen's serious look in front of her, she felt that she shouldn't ask.

Even if the two of them have no feelings, she is now the main concubine of Bailichen and the third princess of Baili Kingdom.

Once you meet Chu Xuanling, the rumors will ferment, and when the time comes, it will definitely cause many incidents, which will disturb everyone's peace.

"I know, if I have nothing to do in the future, I will definitely not be in trouble with the general."

Mu Qing seriously assured, but Bai Lichen still didn't let go of his hand.
