Mama Li raised her head, her weather-beaten face, old and capable.

Especially those eyes, always revealing a shrewdness.

Since Mu Zhixi had spoken, she was unrestrained and sat directly opposite her.

The atmosphere became oppressive, and the room was eerily quiet.

Mu Zhixi met Mama Li's gaze without fear.

Mama Li looked at her expressionlessly, "No matter what the princess has done before, but now, you are the wife of the prince, so you should keep your duty." ”

Mu Zhixi smiled faintly, brushed the broken hair on her sideburns, and her movements were elegant and graceful.

"I don't understand what Mama is saying. Since entering the palace, what has this princess done to make Mama have such opinions?"

Back and forth, Mama Li also saw that she was not a soft persimmon.

She no longer twists and turns, and directly puts on her own attitude.

"The old slave has served Concubine Yun for many years, and he can be regarded as watching the prince grow up.

"The heir of the prince, the old slave will take good care of it.

"But the princess, it seems that you don't like old slaves?"

"Mama is serious. She took a sip of the soup very calmly, but it was tasteless.

Thump!

Mama Li suddenly knelt on the ground.

Mu Zhixi looked shocked, and hurriedly got up to help, "What is this doing, Mama!"

Why kneel?

Mama Li knelt down, but her back was straight.

"The old slave's stay depends on the princess's words. ”

"Mama Li, you get up first......"

"I beg you, Princess, to leave the old slave to serve until you give birth to a child. Otherwise, the old slave would have no face to face the dead Concubine Yun. ”

Mu Zhixi couldn't pull her up, so she had to give up.

In her previous life, Mama Li had knelt down for her.

Is it so desperate for a child now?

"Mama Li, it's not good for you to get up and talk, it's not good to be seen by the prince. ”

She was tired and didn't have the strength to pull with her.

"Please do it to the princess. Not only did Mama Li get up, but she also kowtowed to Mu Zhixi.

"I can't help it!" Mu Zhixi changed places, lest she avoid it.

This Mama Li is really persistent, she can't resist it.

Xiao Yiyan had been guarding the door, and when he heard the movement, he immediately entered the house.

"Mama Li, what are you doing here!"

Seeing that Mama Li couldn't stand on her knees, Xiao Yiyan was also a little stunned.

In his memory, although she was a slave, she had a proud backbone.

In the past, the mother concubine was framed, and it was Mama Li who took the initiative to take the blame and received eighty rods.

was beaten to the point that her skin was open, and she didn't open her mouth to beg for mercy.

Even the emperor said that this slave has hard bones.

Even if Xiao Yiyan was there, Mama Li didn't get up.

She is neither humble nor arrogant, and her eyes are full of determination.

"Lord Wang, the old slave knows that if the princess doesn't nod, the old slave will have to go back to the palace tonight. ”

Xiao Yiyan helped Mu Zhixi sit down, her eyes clear.

"So, do you want to use this way to let the princess keep you? ”

"Husband, let's let Mama Li get up first. ”

Seeing her kneeling on the ground as an old man, Mu Zhixi was a little reluctant.

Xiao Yiyan's hand was holding Mu Zhixi's waist, and her face was cold.

"Get up, Mama Li, don't embarrass the princess. ”

Mama Li glanced at Mu Zhixi, and her face, which had been carved by the vicissitudes of time, was full of sadness.

What the woman was carrying in her belly was Concubine Yun's grandson.

Even if she doesn't like Mu Zhixi anymore, she has to stay for the sake of the child.

That kid can't make any mistakes.

"Okay, Mama Li, this princess promises you. As soon as Mu Zhixi's golden mouth opened, Mama Li was relieved.

"The old slave will serve the princess with all his heart. ”

Mu Zhixi smiled dryly, as long as this Mama Li didn't trouble her, she would be thankful.

But after thinking about it, this Mama Li is really loyal to Concubine Yun.

Love the house and Wu, even the unborn child cares so much.

At the same time, in the palace.

The emperor's birthday banquet is imminent, and the palace people are very busy these days.

Since the envoys of the southern kingdom will also attend, the imperial dining room also has to arrange a few southern dishes to fulfill the friendship of the landlord.

However, the Emperor himself was more concerned with serious matters, including the plague of Winterfell.

He specially summoned several ministers in the imperial study to work together to discuss important matters.

But they were gossiping, and it hurt his head.

"Your Majesty, the envoys of the southern kingdom came to visit for the ...... of Donghuang Mountain."

"Your Majesty, the small country in the north has repeatedly picked quarrels and provoked troubles......"

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the suppression of bandits is imminent......"

They spoke vigorously, and the emperor's face became more and more ugly.

Suffering from headaches, he relied on perseverance.

Gonggong Chen was waiting beside him, and he was very worried when he saw the emperor in a cold sweat.

He walked up to the Emperor, hunched over, and asked softly.

"Your Majesty, you ......"

Suddenly, the emperor grabbed Gonggong Chen's hand.

He opened his mouth with difficulty, but he couldn't even say a word.

"Your Majesty!"

The courtiers also noticed the emperor's strange appearance and craned their necks to check.

Gonggong Chen saw that the situation was not quite right, and shouted outside.

"Imperial Doctor, Hurry up and announce Imperial Doctor!"

The emperor suddenly fainted, and the news came out immediately, causing panic in the hearts of the people.

When the harem concubines heard the news, they rushed to visit, but they were all stopped outside by the queen.

Xiao Qingya knelt in front of the couch, her eyes red.

"Father, you must not have any trouble!"

After the doctor administered the needle, it was still ineffective.

Most of the day passed, the emperor couldn't wake up, and everyone had different thoughts.

The queen was dressed in gorgeous clothes and asked the imperial doctor with a dignified face.

"What's going on? It's so decent, how could the emperor faint?"

"Back to Niangniang, the emperor has not recovered from his illness for a long time, and he is busy with political affairs after returning to the palace, so this is ......"

The doctors were also anxious and busy.

The emperor can't wake up, they all have to be buried together.

After Xiao Jingyi learned of this, he rushed to the War King's Mansion as soon as possible.

"Fifth Emperor Brother, my father is unconscious, and there is chaos in the palace!"

Xiao Yiyan was accompanying Mu Zhixi, and her good mood was disturbed, and she was very impatient.

Mu Zhixi's eyes moved slightly, and a trace of shrewdness flashed in it.

Sure enough, just like in his previous life, after the emperor returned to the palace, he contracted a strange disease and was bedridden.

In his previous life, the emperor was seriously ill, and in the future, under the strong recommendation of his ministers, he would comply with the mandate of heaven and establish Xiao Linyuan as the crown prince.

However, in this life, Xiao Linyuan has no mandate of heaven, who will be the crown prince?

"Husband, you and the Seventh Prince should go into the palace and have a look, don't tell the truth. ”

Mama Li is well versed in the struggle in the palace, and if the emperor suddenly falls, someone must be doing something in secret.

Now, the only thing that the prince can't let go of is Mu Zhixi's mother and son.

"Lord, what the princess said is reasonable. There is an old slave to take care of the princess, so you can enter the palace with peace of mind. ”

Xiao Yiyan looked at Mu Zhixi, her chin pressed slightly.

"Wait for the king in the house. ”

"Hmm. The wind blew the fallen leaves, gently floating on Mu Zhixi's shoulders, she smiled shallowly, gentle and moving, and it was difficult to hide her worry in her eyes.

At that moment, she clearly saw the chill flashing in Xiao Yiyan's eyes.

The emperor is seriously ill, and the crown prince must not be delayed any longer.

If Xiao Yiyan has a heart, now is the best opportunity.

After seeing him leave, Mu Zhixi felt uneasy in her heart.

I always feel like something is going to happen......
