Mu Ci couldn't hear any sound in her ears at this time, she whispered in the breeze and quickly got into the carriage, and along the way, no matter what they said, Mu Ci didn't hear it.

After returning to the Prince's Mansion.

Mu Ci casually asked a maid: "What about the prince?" ”

"The prince is in the study."

Mu Ci pushed her away and walked straight to the study, her face was so ugly that she looked like she could fall down at any moment.

Qingfeng whispered behind her, afraid that something would happen to her.

Erjiu was squatting at the door of the study, and saw Mu Ci walking over very quickly, he was about to speak, but was stopped by Mu Ci with a sharp look.

He had never seen Mu Ci's fierce eyes, and he was shocked for a while, his throat seemed to be blocked, and he couldn't make any sound for a while.

Mu Ci stood at the door of the study, and was about to break in, but he heard the person inside mention Mu Qi's name, Mu Ci paused, made a silent movement backwards, and leaned closer to listen.

"Prince, Wei Chen was worried that if the emperor knew about the fact that you sent someone to find Mu Qi, he would be suspicious." A slightly old voice said slowly, "Now that Mu Qi is dead, it has solved one of our major problems. ”

Murong Lie squinted his eyes, sat at the desk, and turned the mutton fat jade wrench on his thumb.

Previously, the group talked about the war in the north, and only then did the topic turn to the Mu family.

Another person in a dark red official uniform stood up and said: "What Elder Zheng said is reasonable, speaking of which, a Mid-Autumn Festival banquet will be held in the palace next month, and all colleagues above the third rank will need to bring their families into the palace." As we all know, the Mid-Autumn Festival Banquet is also known as the Moon Old Banquet——"

Before he finished speaking, Murong Lie's squinted eyes slowly opened, staring coldly at the person who spoke: "Don't mention it again at this time." ”

"But the prince, the Mu family is gone, and the current crown princess is of no help to you."

"Lord Zhou—" Murong Lie let go of his wrench, his fingers tapped lightly on the table, and he opened his mouth with a calm expression.

"Weichen knows that the prince and the princess have a very strong relationship, but now, the heavenly family is addicted to alchemy, and his health is deteriorating. But the sixth prince is holding the eighth prince, with the help of the queen, and the power in the court should not be underestimated. ”

"I hope the prince will think twice, don't ruin the great cause of a thousand years because of the love of children."

After speaking, Lord Zhou spoke bitterly, and he had a posture of not giving up until he reached his goal.

Murong Lie smiled with a gloomy smile: "Do you know why my father made Gu the crown prince?" ”

"I want to hear about it—"

"Because my father felt that he was prosperous in the Spring and Autumn Period, but the ministers in the court forced him to establish a prince, if the Mu family is still there, this prince position will not fall on the lonely head." Murong Lie smiled and told these henchmen the truth about the holy will he had figured out.

"Even so, the crown princess's position as the main concubine is retained, and the prince can find some families with declining family backgrounds to fill the prince's mansion and spread branches for the prince."

Mu Ci didn't listen to the rest of the words, she only heard that Mu Qi was indeed dead.

But Murong Lie deceived himself.

He said he had protected Muzi well.

And she was kept in the dark so ignorant, she was like a fool, a joke.

Mu Ci suddenly reached out and pushed the door open.

Murong Lie's eyes were ruthless, and when he saw Mu Ci, he softened at a speed that was visible to the naked eye.

The people in the room didn't know how much Mu Ci had heard, but there was also an embarrassment of gossiping behind people's backs, but being caught red-handed.

Hurriedly bent down and saluted Mu Ci: "I've seen the crown princess." ”

Mu Ci didn't shout, and looked directly at Murong Lie.

Murong Lie waved his hand to make everyone retreat, his jaw that had been taut was released, and he got up and walked in the direction of Mu Ci, his eyes looked past her and looked at the breeze and drizzle behind her.

The breeze and drizzle shook his head in fright.

Murong Lie retracted his gaze and smiled at Mu Ci, "Why did Wanwan come back so early?" It's not that Lin Shangshu's daughter is your old friend, why don't you talk to her for a while? ”

Mu Ci smiled coldly and said, "If you don't come back early, how can you hear the truth from the prince's mouth?" ”

Murong Lie got closer, his eyes stared at her face, he looked at her carefully, and when he saw her eyes reddened, he knew that she had cried, and her originally gentle eyes suddenly became deeper and deeper.

He stretched out his hand, and his warm fingertips slowly touched the corners of her eyes, and his movements were gentle: "Wanwan has cried?" ”

Mu Ci raised his hand and slapped Murong Lie's hand away from his face: "Don't touch me, Murong Lie, let me ask you, why did you stop the letter that Sister Ping'er handed me?" If I hadn't gone to put on her makeup today, how long would you have been hiding it from me? ”

Murong Lie smiled casually: "It turned out that because of this, Gu never thought of hiding it from you, but now is not the time to tell you." ”

"Really?" Mu Ci looked at Murong Lie, "Then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince plans to inform me when and when is it?" ”

"Gu did know the news that the troops led by Mu Qi were completely wiped out, but no one has found his body, so these days, Gu has been sending people to find his whereabouts."

"So, my brother is still alive, isn't he?" Hope rose in Mu Ci's heart.

Murong Lie turned around and picked up a jade pendant from the desk and handed it to Mu Ci: "Look at this jade pendant, but Mu Qi's?" ”

Mu Ci took it, and after just one look, he confirmed that it was Mu Qi's thing.

She suddenly didn't dare to ask any more.

Murong Lie read the result from her expression: "Lone has seen the other half of the jade pendant on you, and now I ask you just to confirm." ”

"Wanwan, Lone doesn't want to hide it from you, this jade pendant was found by my people from a decomposing corpse, and Lone just received this news, and before he could tell you, you will know."

"Rotting corpses?"

Mu Ci subconsciously took a few steps back, and she looked at Murong Lie in front of her and opened her mouth, as if she had said something.

But she couldn't hear anything, she didn't want to hear anything.

Her brother, the youngest general in Dajing, ended up dying in a foreign country.

Their Mu family, starting from the ancestor emperor, has loyally followed the people of the Murong family, fought in the south and the north, but was finally beheaded by the whole family.

But at least her brother died on the battlefield in the end.

Instead of being like the rest of the Mu family, they died on the guillotine.

Mu Ci felt that there was a commotion in her head, and there was a hoarse roar inside, she covered her ears, not wanting to listen, but the voice became louder and louder.

My head hurts like it's going to crack at any moment.

Mu Ci suddenly crouched down and let out a roar of pain.

After that, it was dark in front of him, and the whole person fell backwards softly.

Mu Ci felt that he had a long, long dream.

The inside of the dream was dark red.

She ran around in fear, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't run out of that red.

The more she ran, the heavier her body became, as if someone was constantly pulling her feet down, trying to drown her in this red.

Mu Ci watched her body sink deeper and deeper, and her consciousness became more and more awake. Gradually, the red faded past the nose.

Mu Ci thought she was going to die, but before she could suffocate, she woke up with a spirit.

Drizzle, who was lying on the side of the bed, saw her move, and immediately showed surprise: "The princess is awake, the princess, the princess is awake!" ”

When Mu Ci could see something, he found that she was lying in a familiar room, with several people around the bed, and her wrists were pinched.

After a while, Mu Ci heard someone say: "Prince, the crown princess fainted from excessive sadness before, and now she will be fine when she wakes up, and then as long as she takes care of it well and is no longer stimulated, it will be fine." ”

Murong Lie bowed, couldn't wait to walk to the side of the bed, held Mu Ci's hand, and said with a little hoarseness in his low voice: "How do you feel now?" But what's uncomfortable? ”

"What's wrong with me?" Mu Ci only remembered that before she fainted, her brain hurt terribly.

"The doctor said you were too tired, you slept for a few days, and you woke up and you were fine." Murong Lie's movements revealed a little caution, and he ordered the drizzle without looking back: "The porridge prepared before, let people send it in." ”

Mu Ci wanted to sit up, but he didn't have any strength at all.

"Be careful."

Murong Lie helped her sit up and put two soft pillows behind her back.

Mu Ci slowly looked around and noticed that everyone's emotions were a little abnormal.

She frowned, and before she could speak, Murong Lie's hand covered her eyebrows and gently rubbed her away.

"The doctor said, you can't have emotional ups and downs now, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the child in your belly."

Murong Lie's words were like a thunderbolt, exploding above Mu Ci's head, and her soul was scattered.

Mu Ci's eyes widened suddenly, and he opened his mouth several times before he squeezed out a sentence from between his lips: "What did the prince say?" ”

"Wanwan, you're going to be a mother!"
