"It's really amazing, I can't imagine that Concubine Shuniang has planted so many flowers, and the emperor even gave her nectar after a long drought, she must be very fond of Concubine Shuniang." In Mu Wanqing's opinion, Concubine Shu was so lucky to be so favored by the emperor in the harem of three thousand beauties.

Huo Huan glanced at Mu Wanqing, sighed, and then lowered his voice and said: "Actually, my father's favorite is Concubine Yao De, and Concubine Shu and Concubine Yao De are eight points alike, and my father favored her, so Concubine Shu's favor in the harem is because Concubine Yao De's weight in her father's heart is particularly heavy." ”

mentioned Concubine Yao De again, Mu Wanqing was also a little sad: "It's really pitiful." ”

She is Huo Chen's mother, but she is a collection of three thousand favors.

Huo Huan frowned slightly, and didn't say any more: "It's taboo to mention Concubine Yao De in the palace, but I was negligent today, don't mention it in the future, so as not to cause trouble." ”

Mu Wanqing doesn't know why, why there are so many taboos in the palace, and she doesn't let people live. She stuck out her tongue, fortunately she was not possessed by the concubine, otherwise she would have suffocated to death in this deep palace.

was about to walk to the side door, and Huo Huan was interested again: "Qing'er, let's go horseback riding in two days." ”

"I don't know how to ride a horse." Mu Wanqing actually didn't want to have too much contact with Huo Huan, lest she be wronged by Huo Chen again.

"Aren't you most fond of going sightseeing?"

"In such a hot weather, it's easy to get heat stroke, so it's better not to go out." Mu Wanqing smiled, turned a corner and saw her sedan chair, and walked up quickly. Suddenly she stopped again, and at this time, it might be her only chance, she turned back and said, "Okay, let's make another appointment." ”

Huo Huan smiled again, as warm as jade, and nodded: "I'll wait for you." ”

It was already dinner time when she returned to the palace, Zhi Ning had already prepared the meal, and as soon as she saw Mu Wanqing coming back, she immediately came up and said with a solemn expression: "Miss, you can come back, you have been there for an afternoon." ”

Mu Wanqing also felt very tired, the bumpy ride in the sedan chair, and the cold jade jewelry on her head made her neck stiff, so she quickly asked Zhi Ning to change her clothes.

"The prince came here for a while just now, but you haven't returned for a long time, and the prince can't wait to leave." Zhi Ning served two meals and sat down to eat them with Mu Wan.

Mu Wan's hand holding the chopsticks suddenly stopped, and he suddenly felt bored, and asked, "What is he doing here?" ”

"Zhining doesn't know either, but the prince's face is not very good-looking." Zhi Ning still had palpitations, and she was afraid that Huo Chen would punish herself.

Mu took two mouthfuls of food, no longer had an appetite, and sighed for a while before saying, "It may be that the queen mother summoned me, and he wants to come to find out." ”

Zhi Ning also nodded, with a solemn expression: "In the past, the queen mother and the concubine fought fiercely, and the queen mother has never treated the prince very much, maybe I am afraid that the young lady will fall to the queen's side." ”

Mu Wanqing finally understood why the queen summoned her so high-profile at this time, as long as she entered Fengren Palace, she would become suspicious, the queen is really a good means, even if she tells Huo Chen now that she is not the queen's person, I am afraid Huo Chen will not believe it, this is forcing herself to take refuge in the queen.

Thinking of this, Mu Wanqing was even more worried, so she threw away her rice bowl and chopsticks and stopped eating.

"Miss?"

"Zhining, if it were you, which side would you fall to?"

Zhi Ning was startled, trembling her lips and couldn't say half a word, and after a long time, she said slowly: "Zhi Ning doesn't know ......"

Mu Wanqing sighed, even she didn't know how to choose, how could Zhining know.

"But Zhi Ning thought, since the young lady is married to the prince, it is always good to cling to the prince."

She smiled lightly, understanding the idea of ancient women marrying and obeying their husbands, but she is a modern person.

"Zhining, tell me, if I continue to stay in the palace, will I have status? Will I not be bullied? ”

Zhi Ning shook her head.

"That's it, I'm so miserable in the palace, I have to find a way back for myself." Mu Wanqing said lightly.

"Miss, you want to get closer to the queen?!" Zhi Ning heard the meaning of the strings and exclaimed.

Mu Wanqing hurriedly covered her mouth, for fear that someone outside would hear it, and said reproachfully: "Why are you so loud, what if someone hears it?" ”

Zhi Ning looked annoyed, and after Mu Wanqing let go of her hand, she said softly: "Miss, don't you, you didn't get close to the queen before, and now you can't." ”

"I didn't need it before, but now I ......," Mu Wanqing paused, "If I sit back and wait to die, I'm afraid I'll die even more ugly." ”

"Miss......" Zhi Ning wanted to speak and stopped.

"Huo Chen is a fox, and the queen is also an old fox, don't worry, I will definitely see the situation clearly before making a decision, it's too early to say anything."

"Zhining doesn't know much about the affairs of the imperial court, but the young lady can talk to the eldest young master."

Mu Wanqing nodded, Mu Zhixu is a member of the court, so she naturally knows a lot about political affairs, as long as she bets her chips, she will be able to be reborn.

After talking about it in detail, Mu Wanqing's eyelids were heavy, and she washed her face and went to bed.

And in Tonghuaju, it is also very quiet.

Huo Chen has never liked to be too noisy, and he is closing his eyes at this time.

Chu Qing strode closer, and when he saw Huo Chen's eyes closed, he didn't know whether to disturb him for a while.

"Say it." Huo Chen still didn't open his eyes.

"Yufei just came out of the news, the queen retired the redundant palace maids at that time, and the content of their conversation was not clear, but King Yan went to Wanhua Palace with her to enjoy the flowers."

Huo Chen had expected such an answer, but for those two people to go to enjoy the flowers together...... But she was a little dissatisfied, Mu Wanqing really didn't know how to avoid it, he chuckled, could it be that she had already made a choice? United Empress against him? That would be naïve.

"Lord Wang?" Chu Qing saw that Huo Chen was slow to give any response, so he spoke suspiciously.

"Chu Qing, guess what she will choose? Is it to move closer to the queen, or to be loyal to the king? Huo Chen opened his eyes, and there was no emotion in his dark eyes.

"Subordinates don't dare to speculate."

Huo Chen smiled slightly: "No matter what, no matter how she chooses, it's all in vain." ”

Chu Qing lowered his head, not knowing how to talk.

"Lord Wang, Yufei ...... her" Chu Qing hesitated, completely lacking the appearance of cold noodles on weekdays.

Huo Chen glanced at him before saying, "You don't have to worry, she is so smart, the queen can't deal with her for a while, and when the time is ripe, this king will take her out." ”

Chu Qing didn't dare to say any more, since he and Yufei decided to die for him, it was not their turn to decide their lives.
