Murong Xi sat in the courtyard of the Jiaofang Hall with one hand on his cheek.

The sunlight outside was a little strong, bright and a little dazzling, casting a circle of light on the trunk of the tree. Murong Xi looked at the small flowers blooming in the yard with a smile in his eyes.

The palace maid on the side accompanied her, looking at her queen mother, who was like a fairy concubine on the horizon, seemed to be relieved of something, and nodded with a big smile.

"Yezi, what are you laughing at?" Murong Xi's eyes glanced over and looked at the little palace maid who laughed out loud. Ye Zi blinked, quickly covered his lips, and knelt down in front of Murong Xi with the hem of his skirt.

Murong Xi is a stubborn person.

She stubbornly named each of her close palace maids Yezi.

I don't know if it's for nostalgia or something else.

In her previous life, Ye Zi died tragically in the hands of Lin Xuanying in order to protect her, and she thought that she could reunite with Ye Zi in her first life, but she didn't want the people around her to have already changed their cores and were replaced by Tang Xiao.

The poor little girl, before she could be gentle, was once again lost by the conspiracy. And she can only use the pearl in her heart to punish the pearl for her evil deeds, and Lin Xuanying has suffered evil retribution as an excuse to appease herself.

Ye Zi bowed obediently, with a slight heroic spirit between his eyebrows and eyes, and his red dress was not as obedient as the people back then, but with a dashing and self-confidence, which made Murong Xi, who has always been soft and kind, look happy.

"The slave maid sees the queen mother beautiful, like a fairy, and the rouge vulgar powder outside the palace is not the same style at all, so she looks happy, and feels that no one can snatch the emperor from the queen mother."

Ye Zi's words were so straightforward that Murong Xi's cheeks turned slightly red. I wanted to hate her, but I didn't open my mouth because my heart was like honey, and I only lowered my eyes. The long eyelashes blinked a few times in the sun, and it looked very touching and cute.

Murong Xi pursed his lower lip and did not speak.

Ye Zi saw her snickering, and her heart was also happy, and she stepped forward to hold her arm very affectionately. The master and servant are also happy.

In the blink of an eye, Mu Ci was already three years old.

Murong Xi sat in the courtyard and watched her bun-like son running around, dressed very well, with round cheeks and a sweet smile that made her happy from the bottom of her heart.

For three years, Mu Ci was Mu Qing's only son.

In the past three years, Mu Qing has never been to the courtyard of other people in the harem. The three of them are like ordinary people living alone in the Jiaofang Palace, monogamous, and harmonious. Murong Xi enjoyed it very much, and he liked everything now.

She raised her eyes and glanced at Mu Ci, who was now squatting on the ground, staring intently at a corner of the grass, looking eager to try. Murong Xi was not worried, but he looked at the palace maid and eunuch who was accompanying him and panicked, for fear that this golden body would bump into it.

Murong Xi had a smile in his eyes.

Suddenly, Mu Zi threw himself into the grass, clasping his hands together in an attempt to grasp something. The palace maids and eunuchs around saw that Mu Ci was going to follow them, and for a while, everyone touched their heads and shoulders, and they fell to the ground and covered their injuries and complained.

Mu Ci carefully opened his hands and found that his palms were empty, and he sat on the ground with negative energy.

"Your Highness, this grass is cold, don't freeze, get up quickly." As he spoke, the palace maids hurriedly stepped forward to help. Mu Ci should not, still sitting in place, wrinkled with a small face the size of a palm.

Mu Ci couldn't get up, and others didn't dare, so they knelt in the grass one after another.

Murong Xi shook his head helplessly, stepped forward and rubbed the broken hair on the top of his son's head, and smiled at him: "What's wrong with Liangchen?" ”

smiled and looked at the soft son in his arms - Mu Ci, the word Liangchen.

Blessings.

Mu Ci looked up at Murong Xi beside him with a bitter little face, opened a pair of small hands stained with dirt, and muttered dissatisfied: "The palace, the crickets in the palace are gone." ”

Murong Xi blinked his eyes, raised his hand and pinched his upturned little nose, and said with a smile: "Just because of such a small matter?" Let's go, the queen mother will accompany you to catch it! ”

"Good~"

Two nobles, one big and one small, walked hand in hand towards the imperial garden.

The palace people beside him looked at each other, only to feel dizzy for a while, and hurriedly followed suit. Ye Zi was a little more excited than others, and went directly to ask for the net.

A mother and son, one big and one small, dressed richly, squatted by the flower beds in the imperial garden, staring intently at the tender green blades of grass. Murong Xi's luxurious sleeves were pulled high, revealing his white lotus arms.

"There, there!"

Mu Ci's sharp eyes pointed to the cricket that suddenly popped out of the grass, and his small body suddenly flew over, and the palace people behind him made a mess, looking at Mu Ci who rushed into the weeds, and rushed to follow together.

Murong Xi smiled happily on the side, and only felt that everything in front of him was in line with one sentence - the emperor is not in a hurry, and the eunuch is in a hurry.

In a few moments, Mu Si crawled out of the grass.

His hair was a little messy, his face was dirty, and there were even a few holes in his clothes. But he smiled extremely happily, his eyes were shining, his white and tender little hands were clenched, and he ran to Murong Xi like a treasure.

"Mother, queen mother, caught it!" Holding it in front of Murong Xi, the white and tender little hand slowly opened, and a green cricket in the palm of his hand shook its slender tentacles.

"I can keep him as a pet." Mu Ci raised his dirty little face and looked at Murong Xi, his peach blossom eyes blinking, looking very expectant.

Murong Xi raised his hand and rubbed her head, and said in a serious tone: "Ah Ci, you see how freely it is in the grass, if you arrest him, he will be very sad." ”

Mu Ci pursed his lips, looking extremely lost, but he still put back the newly caught little cricket very obediently. The little cricket moved its tentacles and jumped towards the green place.

Murong Xi picked a few blades of grass, braided them into a grass cricket, and handed it to Mu Ci beside him, Mu Ci blinked his eyes and took it happily, holding the grass cricket and cheering happily.

Murong Xi smiled lightly.

Grass crickets are still used by him when he lived in Ah Liang's house before.

Mu Ci was much happier to get the grass cricket, Murong Xi raised his hand and rubbed his cheeks, pulled his fleshy little hand and smiled: "Let's go, go back." ”

Ah Ci nodded obediently.

Murong Xi smiled and took his son and took him back to the Jiaofang Hall to wash. The big palace maid beside the Queen Mother suddenly came to greet her, and the Queen Mother asked Murong Xi to go to the Changqiu Palace.

Murong Xi frowned, and only said, "What's the matter?" ”

"I heard that the queen mother and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince were catching crickets in the imperial garden. The Queen Mother was curious when she heard this, and wanted the Queen Mother to go over and ask. ”

Murong Xi knew in his heart, and only instructed the palace people to take good care of Ah Ci on the side, and followed the big palace maid to Changqiu Palace. Ye Zi was suspicious in his heart, and turned to the direction of the Heart Cultivation Palace.

Feng Yi walked away slowly, and Murong Xi looked into the distance, but his mind was calm. All the way away, Murong Xi bowed to the Queen Mother in a dignified manner, and seeing her old man's frowning brows, she raised her voice directly: "The Queen Mother is blessed with Jin'an, and the concubine knows her mistake." ”

"Oh?"

"The concubines connived at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to play around, and they were not in a proper manner, and they were willing to be punished. From tomorrow onwards, the concubines will definitely think about it behind closed doors. ”

"Huh." The Queen Mother let out a sneer in her throat, and only raised her eyes to glare at Murong Xi, "Now you know that you have lost your physique?" ”

"There are many people in the Imperial Garden, if it spreads out, where should the royal face go? As a queen, the mourning family has told you so much, have you ever put that sentence in your heart? ”

The Queen Mother's tone was serious, and she looked at Murong Xi with a look of hatred that iron could not be made of steel, and her tone was full of worry. Murong Xi didn't speak, just quietly waited for the Queen Mother's next words.

"In order to avoid rampant rumors, all the palace people present at that time were killed."

As soon as the words came out, Murong Xi's brows frowned slightly, and he said, "Slow." ”

"The Queen Mother, the handling of palace personnel is small, but if it hurts the country's fortunes, I hope the Queen Mother will think twice."

"National fortune?" The Queen Mother snorted coldly, she didn't expect Murong Xi to be so sharp-tongued, so she only said angrily, "It's just a few cheap women." ”

"A cheap maid is also a human life."

"Mu Guo has just changed the dynasty for three years, and it is an eventful time. Plagues were frequent in the south, and drought was once again in the north. At this time, if you kill again, I am afraid that disaster will arise. ”

"Alarmist nonsense!" Empress Dowager Gao slapped the armrest under her and glared at Murong Xi. Murong Xi didn't move, just looked at the angry person in front of him.

In the past three years, the Queen Mother often called her to Changqiu Palace for various reasons, forcing her to persuade Mu Qingyu to be wet. Murong Xi would still feel a little distressed for the first two messes, but over time, she got used to it.

Today, the Queen Mother is forcing her life, which can't help but make her a little annoyed.

"As a queen, it is so bold to dare to question the fortunes of the country!" The Queen Mother sneered, staring at the bright phoenix crown on Murong Xi's head with a pair of eyes and not speaking.

"Concubine Jiang Xian has arrived-"

Murong Xi was stunned, he didn't expect that Jiang Mingyue would suddenly appear at this stall. I saw that he was dressed in white and quiet, his eyes were clear, and the corners of his lips were smiling, and he slowly knelt down.

"See the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother."

Only then did Murong Xi discover that Jiang Mingyue was followed by a young monk in a red and yellow robe, with a red rosary on his hand and fair skin.

"The Empress Dowager, what the Empress Dowager said is true. This is the Void Master of Ruian Temple. ”

The man stepped forward and made a Buddha salute: "Amitabha, the poor monk is empty." ”

The name of the Void Master will be known even to those who do not worship the Buddha regularly. Murong Xi blinked, looked at Jiang Mingyue, and then at the void, thinking about how she could invite such a powerful person.

"There are frequent plagues in the south, and there is drought in the north. Mingyue is only a female streamer, but she is still worried about state affairs, so she specially invites the Void Mage to come and pray for the blessing of the country. ”

"I just passed by the Changqiu Palace, and I heard the movement inside, so I came offended."
