Ye Shiying walked to Tong Shi with light steps, and her lips were polite and courteous: "If the queen mother has no orders, the daughter-in-law will retire with Mu Wan first." ”

Tong Shi has always looked at Ye Shiying with pleasing eyes, and at this moment he smiled very lovingly in front of everyone: "The autumn scenery of the imperial garden is picturesque, you can go and watch it." ”

Immediately afterwards, Yuwen Murou also bowed and retired, and Tong Shi also said a few words to let her go.

Whoever sees her, will feel that she is not only a kind and good mother-in-law, but also a good mother-in-law who regards her concubine as her own! No wonder Yuwen Haotian respects her, and the position of the queen of the middle palace is as stable as Mount Tai.

After walking a few meters away, Bai Muguan breathed a sigh of relief: "Sister, did you say that today's events are too strange?" ”

Ye Shiying frowned unconsciously, and said with emotion: "Strange is strange, she is also Your Majesty's daughter, and Your Majesty really has a different preference for Princess Hemu." Even if it is Princess Heqing from the queen, the limelight is not as good as Princess Hemu. ”

Hearing this, Bai Muguan didn't care, smiled sweetly and whispered: "Princess Hemu was born to His Majesty's most beloved woman, and is naturally His Majesty's treasure. Even if she really made a mistake, Her Majesty was reluctant to punish her heavily. ”

As a young and young woman who has just started to fall in love, Bai Muguan is quite envious of Concubine Chen. According to the practice of the Tianxi Dynasty, even if the queen dies, there is no need for hundreds of officials to rest and mourn, but Yuwen Haotian issued an order to give Chen Guifei this unique honor. It is said that the most ruthless emperor family, the person who can ascend the throne must not only have eloquence and strategy, but also the scheming and resoluteness of the city government is also essential. Yuwen Haotian can treat a woman so fondly, it must be a blessing in the misfortune of Concubine Chen's life.

Suddenly, a cold female voice came into her ears: "Miss Bai, please stay." ”

Ye Shiying and Bai Muguan subconsciously turned their heads at the same time, and saw Yuwen Murou standing slim not far away.

Yuwen Murou first saluted Ye Shiying simply: "Sister-in-law of the crown princess." Then she turned to Bai Muguan and said, "I wonder if Miss Bai can gossip with Princess Ben?" ”

Bai Muguan was stunned at first, but then did not hesitate: "The courtiers are willing to accompany Her Royal Highness the princess." ”

Seeing this, Ye Shiying also said: "Mu Guan, you are so good to talk to the princess, I will go back to the East Palace first." ”

Bai Muguan agreed with a smile.

At the end, Yuwen Murou took Bai Muguan to visit the scenery of the imperial garden, and the eyes were full of ingenious rockeries, towering ancient trees, exquisite pavilions, and carefully selected flowers and stones at the feet to pave the road.

Retreating from the palace maid, the two walked all the way but were silent. The main thing is that Yuwen Murou doesn't speak, and Bai Muguan won't be stupid enough to twitter in front of Her Royal Highness the unfamiliar princess.

Until Yuwen Murou stopped in front of a few clusters of chrysanthemums, the autumn breeze blew across her delicate and fair face, and her face was blown and broken, and there was a touch of sorrow in her beautiful eyes.

"I heard that you can do martial arts." In fact, Yuwen Murou's voice is not only cold, but also very good.

Bai Muguan nodded and smiled: "I have been dancing with knives and guns since I was a child, so that the princess can laugh." ”

"No," Yuwen Murou looked at her suddenly, with undisguised envy in her eyes, and said slowly, "My mother can also martial arts, but unfortunately she never refused to teach me." I heard my father say that my mother fought on the battlefield when she was young, and although she had made military exploits, she was not rewarded as an official like you. Later, when his father ascended the throne, his mother had already married him, so it was naturally inconvenient to stand in the court. I know that this is the regret of my mother's life. ”

Although Bai Muguan and Chen Guifei have never met, they are both aspiring women who are riding horses and roaring west winds and have the world in mind, and she can fully understand Chen Guifei's depression. Just because they are daughters, even if they have made contributions to the bloody struggle for the country, no one really recognizes them in this male-inferior environment. In addition to being ridiculed by the world, perhaps they can only gain the pity of others, and regret that their talents can be passed down through the ages if they are men.

After all, the shallow world always thinks that no matter how smart and capable a woman is, she should be confined to the inner house by nature. So much so that after Concubine Chen married into the royal family, she had to abandon her talent and retreat to the inner courtyard to teach her husband and children. Fortunately, she got her wish to marry the man she loved, and even if she died, he still remembered it.

Thinking of this, Bai Muguan smiled and opened his mouth to comfort the girl of the same age in front of him: "Your Royal Highness Princess, although Concubine Chen has no official reward, she is very lucky. Because His Majesty loves her very much, as far as I know, it is not the favor of ordinary concubines, but the affection of comrades who have known each other since childhood. ”

If she could, how she wished she could be like Concubine Chen, meet a single-minded person at a young age, and support each other to die. Why did Yu Wenye's handsome face flash in his mind, did he? Will it be her beloved Bai Muguan?

Yuwen Murou obviously didn't notice her momentary trance.

"I understand that the reason why my father loves me, no matter what I do or say wrong, he will never punish me, because he loves my mother, and I am my mother's only child. Just like today, he clearly believed what Li Zhaoyi and the palace maid said, but he still chose to protect me. As she spoke, Yuwen Murou gently pinched a chrysanthemum and handed it to Bai Muguan.

Bai Muguan stretched out his hand to take the blooming chrysanthemum, and said with a slight surprise: "This flower is very beautiful, but the princess will soon wither when she picks it off." ”

Yuwen Murou smiled faintly: "You're right, but if you don't pick it off, it's hidden in this entire chrysanthemum bush, who will pay close attention to this one?" ”

Bai Muguan knew what she was implying by this. Before I had time to think about it, I heard Yuwen Murou ask again: "Do you believe that I pushed Li Zhaoyi into the water?" ”

"I don't believe it."

I can't tell the reason, Bai Muguan always has a good impression of the cold and noble girl in front of her, and her intuition also believes that today's events have nothing to do with her.

Yuwen Murou was a little puzzled: "Why? ”

"Because you are the most favored princess, no one can interfere in making decisions for you except Your Majesty, and you have no siblings, so Li Zhaoyi will not pose a threat to you regardless of whether she gives birth to a man or a woman. On the contrary, the person who framed you may not only kill Li Zhaoyi with two corpses, but also anger Concubine Xi by dragging him to the new princess. As far as I know, Concubine Xi's mother's family, the Hu family, is an upstart in the capital, and although Concubine Xi's mother and daughter are not favored, His Majesty uses Concubine Xi's two younger brothers very much. The people behind the scenes are called killing three birds with one stone. After thinking for a moment, Bai Muguan analyzed in an orderly manner, "In the past, when Concubine Chen was alive, I thought that they were afraid of Niangniang and didn't dare to start easily. Now that Concubine Chen has just passed away, they can't bear it anymore if they have no fear. ”

Yuwen Murou's eyes dimmed, and she said indignantly: "This princess is used to seeing open and secret battles in the palace, the mother concubine has no son, and the grandfather's family has declined, but there are always some people who can't see the emperor's grace and protection for us, and try every means to prevent us from living in peace." ”

"If the princess wants to prove her innocence, she might as well think about who will pose the greatest threat if Li Zhaoyi gives birth to the little prince safely?"

Today, Yuwen Murou did not make an appointment to meet rashly, and the intention of wooing was indispensable. Yuwen Murou is a real lady of the sky, what she said has a lot of weight in the emperor's heart, if she can get her protection and support in the future, it will also be an extra layer of protection for the Bai family.

Yuwen Murou fell into deep thought, and only spoke after a while: "The crown prince and the royal brother are descendants, and he has both talent and virtue to sit firmly in the position of the prince, he will not resort to such a means of framing him." However, the eldest emperor's brother is small and his style of action is quite ruthless, could it be that he colluded with Concubine Lin to do it? There are also six emperor brothers who are the children of Xiao Concubine, they have the support of the queen mother behind them, and the six emperor brothers are not very old and have a lot of thoughts. Since the early death of the fifth emperor brother, the queen mother has been bent on supporting the sixth emperor brother, and the father also likes the youngest sixth emperor brother. ”

"What the princess said is not far from what I guessed." Bai Muguan nodded, "No matter what the truth is, wait for a while and it will naturally see." ”

With such a big game set up by the mastermind behind the scenes, it will not end in a hurry? Bai Muguan believes that there will be action next.

Yuwen Murou didn't know why: "What do you mean?" ”

Bai Muguan said softly: "The princess is not impatient, Li Zhaoyi is safe and sound, they didn't succeed this time, I think the people behind the scenes will definitely not give up." All you have to do now is wait and see what happens. ”

Yuwen Murou nodded slightly, believing Bai Muguan's speculation.

At the end, she inadvertently hooked her lips and smiled, and everything in heaven and earth was overshadowed: "In this case, Miss Bai should leave the palace sooner than the time." ”

"Then Mu Wan will retire first."

Bai Muguan put away her smile the moment she turned around, she was full of doubts about this matter, and this was the only thing she could say. As for some details, even she didn't understand it herself, and she had a vague foreboding in her heart, worried that she might be involved.

At the same time, the two black-clothed guard-like people hiding in the grass watched Bai Muguan drift away, and then they glanced at each other.

"Your Highness is really clever, and Princess Mu really made an appointment to meet the daughter of General Mobei."

"Let's go, let's hurry back to the house and report to Your Highness."
