Chapter 214 Acting
Zhang Wan's matter has come to an end for the time being. Although the performance is over, the private undercurrent is still turbulent. At the same time, what became more and more vivid was about the punishment in Danting Hall. The turbulence caused by this incident was so great that it was destined to be impossible to hide it. Although Mo Liuchen killed many talkative maids and eunuchs in the palace in order to hide this matter, the more severe the suppression of some things, the more severe the rebound was. What's more, some people said that God was dissatisfied with a princess from another country occupying a high position in the Yuhan harem, and was deeply favored by the emperor and gave a warning to keep the emperor vigilant and not be charmed by the demons of other countries.
At the first time he heard the rumor, Mo Liuchen almost fainted. Whether in Canglan or Yuhan, once a woman was called a disaster, then the woman was not far from death. No country allows such a woman to appear around an emperor.
However, Duanmu Lingyu was abnormal. He not only ordered to strictly investigate and deal with the people who spread rumors, but also stayed in Danting Hall for ten days in a row, calming Mo Liuchen's panic.
Mother Gui looked at Mo Liuchen, who was holding a needle and thread embroidered bag, and a trace of worry flashed in her eyes: "Your concubine, why do these maids of honor who are good at needle and threading do it yourself?"
Mo Liuchen's face was full of smiles, and his slightly red cheeks were as beautiful as peach blossoms in March: "Mister, how can you understand that the emperor asked me last time? How can I disappoint the emperor?"
"Your Majesty, although the old slave knows that there are some things that should not be said, the old slave can't help reminding the Empress that the emperor's attitude has changed too quickly. After all, there are rumors outside..."
"M Mother Gui!" Mo Liuchen's face turned cold, and a haze flashed in his eyes. His hand holding the needle and thread was tightened, obviously with a trace of anger. "Mama, I am now a noble concubine, and Mu Qingya can't compare with me. Humph, I have been slowly replacing her position in the emperor's heart. Don't worry about it."
At this time, a maid in purple came in at the door: "Mother, I brought you good news."
Mo Liuchen returned to normal and looked up at the maid of honor: "Ziyuan, what's the news, but what's the matter with the emperor?"
Ziyuan, the maid of honor, smiled: "The Empress and the emperor really have a good understanding. The emperor has just sent an edict asking you to go to the pavilion for dinner together! Oh, my mother-in-law, you'd better stop embroidering and dress up quickly. Don't let the emperor wait anxiously and blame the maidservant!"
Mo Liuchen's face was full of smiles, and the look in his eyes was even more dazzling: "You little hoof, you have learned to entertain this palace. Well, there is a pair of jasper bracelets on the table, and I will reward you."
"Yes, I thanked the maidservant." Ziyuan saluted respectfully, but at the moment when she lowered her head again, a cold light flashed in her eyes, which was so fast that people could not notice.
Mother Gui's face was even more gloomy. She couldn't imagine that within a few days, the noble concubine alienated her as a nanny, but went to get close to the maid sent by the emperor. Will this maid of honor sincerely help the Empress? However, no matter how anxious she is, there is nothing she can do now. However, if this bitch dares to be disrespectful to her mother, she will be smashed and will make this cheap hoof doomed!
In the Feiyu Pavilion, Leqi carefully dressed up for Mu Qingya: "Miss, I heard that the emperor was eating in the Shuixie Pavilion and called Mo Liuchen."
Mu Qingya's eyes remained unchanged: "Well, it's nothing."
"Miss, why don't you go too? The noble concubine is always by the emperor's side these days. Although the emperor has you in his heart, she is always seduced."
Mu Qingya laughed and said, "You girl's mouth is getting more and more unobstructed. If you are heard by Duanmu Lingyu, you will feel good."
"The maidservant is telling the truth." Leqi frowned. In the past few days, the news about Mo Liuchen's favor has become more and more powerful. Even some maids of honor have vaguely suppressed Feiyu Pavilion. If it hadn't been for the emperor's secret care, I'm afraid that the things of Feiyu Pavilion would have been hidden. Those slaves who are all bastards!
Mu Qingya smiled and said, "You're right. It's time for me to see the emperor's favor to the noble concubine."
"Miss, are you finally going to take action?"
Mu Qingya smiled and did not answer, but her heart was not affected by the recent rumors, because these rumors were made by her manipulation. In the past few days, when she went to Mo Liuchen's palace, it was naturally a stand-in found by Duanmu Lingyu. It was really sad to think that Mo Liuchen. She thought that her love was just a passing cloud, but Thinking of what she has done, she has no sympathy in her heart. Everyone must pay for what she has done, and Mo Liuchen's blood debt must be repaid with blood.
In the Shuixie Pavilion, Duanmu Lingyu frowned slightly, with a trace of fatigue flashing in his eyes from time to time, and his handsome face was also slightly pale because of the blood in his eyes. Mo Liuchen put the cloak in his hand on him: "Your Majesty, it's getting cold. Please pay more attention to your health."
Duanmu Lingyu seemed to have just recovered. He nodded with a smile on his face: "Your concubine, you are here."
"Yes, as soon as the concubine came over, I saw that the emperor looked tired, but what's the matter?"
"Nothing. There have been many rumors in the palace recently. I have sent someone to investigate. You don't have to pay attention to it. By the way, what's wrong with Zhang Wan that you asked you to investigate before?"
"Your Majesty, my concubine is incompetent and has not investigated who had any contact with Zhang Wan during the draft. She has a strange personality and usually does not have contact with people, but likes to travel in remote places. This is really not easy to investigate."
"Well, I know that this matter is almost over now. If you can't investigate it, you can't investigate it. It's nothing serious. I heard that you hired a royal doctor some time ago, but you are not feeling well?"
Mo Liuchen shook his head with a ruddy face: "There is nothing uncomfortable."
"Well, that's good, you..." In the middle of Duanmu Lingyu's words, he was suddenly stunned and looked fixedly at the door of the Water Pavilion.
Mo Liuchen turned his head and looked over, and a streamer flashed in his eyes: "Miss Mu, why did you come here?"
Mu Qingya was dressed in a moon-white dress, and her pale ink-like hair was pinned with white jade hairpins, which looked particularly plain, and even her face was a little pale by the clothes. This paleness made her particularly comfortable in Mo Liuchen's eyes, and the smile on her face became brighter and brighter: "Your Majesty, let Miss Mu come up quickly. It's very cold outside, and it's winter. Miss Mu was frightened some time ago. Don't catch a cold."
Duanmu Lingyu nodded: "Qingya, come in and sit down."
Mu Qingya's face looks more and more ugly: "I've seen the emperor, the noble concubine."
Duanmu Lingyu frowned: "Didn't you say that you don't need to be so polite? Why are you still like this? Sit down quickly."
"The etiquette is not invalid. How can the minister not be polite when she sees the emperor's noble concubine?"
Duanmu Lingyu frowned even more.
Seeing the performance of the two, a streamer flashed in Mo Liuchen's eyes: "Your Majesty, Miss Mu has always been polite, so don't force others. Miss Mu can have a meal. Let's use some together. She has noticed something wrong from the performance of the two. The emperor has obviously not completely let go of Mu Qingya, but the two have also been estranged because of themselves. Mu Qingya is obviously jealous. As an emperor, how can Duanmu Lingyu change for a woman? Mu Qingya takes herself too seriously. Therefore, what she has to do is to make the gap between the two continue to increase.
"Miss Mu, are you all right when you come in?"
"It's okay to reply to the Empress's words."
Danmu Lingyu snorted coldly: "Pres the meal."
The meal was quickly put up. Duanmu Lingyu waved her hand to let the maid of Bucai retreat. She picked up the chopsticks and picked up the dishes and sent them to her mouth.
Mu Qingya frowned: "Your Majesty, you should let people test the poison."
"No!"
"Your Majesty, your dragon body is important. You forgot what happened last time. As the king of a country..."
"Since I know that I am the king of a country, do I still need you to discipline me?" Duanmu Lingyu slapped his chopsticks on the table with a bang and shouted coldly.
The maids and slaves around them knelt on the ground and trembled to welcome the anger of Duanmu Lingyu.
Mu Qingya's face was even paler, and her eyes were full of water, and she could hardly accept it as if she was going to fall down: "I'm leaving!" After saying this sentence bluntly, he even forgot the etiquette and strode out. Leqi quickly followed her and held her.
Mo Liuchen faintly raised the corners of his lips and his eyes were full of proud light: "Your Majesty, don't be angry. I think Qingya also cares about your body."
Duanmu Lingyu rubbed her eyebrows and said, "If only she could be sensible about you. Originally, I thought she understood, but I didn't expect that she would be full of etiquette. It's really..." Halfway through, Duanmu Lingyu stopped, as if she realized that these words could not be said. "Okay, let's eat, don't worry about it. She."
After turning the corridor, Mu Qingya gradually stopped. There was no expression on her face, but from her pale face, anyone could see her situation. It was not until she entered the Feiyu Pavilion that she restrained her sad face. She sat on the soft couch aside as if nothing had happened, picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and moistened her lips: "Leqi, why do you think of me like this?"
Le Qi quickly put away his look: "Miss, are you all right?"
"Ha ha, what can I do? Well, don't worry, it's just a play."
" acting?" Leqi can't react.
Mu Qingya's expression gradually sank: "I'm afraid you know the news from the northwest?"
"Miss, are you talking about the rebellion of the northwest vassal king?"
"Well, the situation of Yuhan is not optimistic now. The northwest vassals have been divided since the founding of the country. These generations of emperors want to revoke the vassal kings. Unfortunately, the vassals are full-wing and deep-rooted. Once they are not handled properly, it is the crisis of the whole Yuhan. Therefore, they can't Something happened!"
Leqi thought for a while before he realized: "Miss, you just played this play with the emperor to stabilize Mo Liuchen, so as to stabilize Canglan and let Canglan not participate in it?"
"Hmm."
"But how can Mo Liuchen control the whole vicissitudes?"
Mu Qingya smiled and said, "Although she is a princess, she also has a fiefdom and general in Canglan. She has married Yuhan, and the power in her hand is bound to become a territory for the princes of Canglan. This is a good bargaining chip. I think Mo Junyu will be interested in it. Moreover, even if Mo Junyan doesn't listen, I must Let him listen, Leqi, you go and notify the shadow and follow the plan!"
"Yes, Miss!"
