Chapter 254

Except for Mu Lianyi, who was there didn't know that the emperor stayed in the Xianglin Palace last night?
When Nalan said this, he was obviously protecting Mu Lianyi, but at the same time he was secretly showing off his holy will, and no one could afford to offend her.

The people present, not only the queen, but also others felt uncomfortable.

Think about it, how many days has the emperor not been to them?
There are three thousand beauties in the palace, how easy is it to win the emperor's favor overnight?On the other hand, Mu Lianyi, the little princess, was very happy.

It is said that the King of Xiangyang even allowed her to drive away the concubine in the mansion without any intention of blaming her...

Seeing that Mu Lianyi got up with the imperial concubine and was about to leave after saluting, the queen snorted: "Sister imperial concubine, go and rest if you are tired! But Yier can't leave."

Mu Lianyi: "..." Sister, you really won't let her go, will you?

The noble concubine's complexion also darkened: "Sister Queen, Yi'er is a guest invited by my concubine, and should be entertained by my concubine."

"Sister, what you said is wrong! Princess Xiangyang entered the palace according to the emperor's will! The reason is to participate in the flower viewing party! Now that the flower viewing party is not over, how can she leave?"

The queen glanced contemptuously at the concubine's delicately carved face, and said indifferently, "Sister! The host of the flower viewing party is my palace, not you. Shouldn't I be the one to entertain the distinguished guests invited by the emperor?"

"..." Nalan's complexion changed, he couldn't find a reason to refute the queen.

She looked at Mu Lianyi and asked what she meant.

Mu Lianyi nodded gratefully, telling her not to worry.

In fact, to Mu Lianyi, there was no difference whether she was a queen or a noble concubine.

The queen is hostile to her, that's something on the bright side.

The imperial concubine has nothing to do to show her courtesy, either to rape or to steal.

Based on the truth that it is easy to hide from an open gun, but hard to defend against a hidden arrow, there is actually nothing wrong with her staying here!

Seeing that Mu Lianyi had made such a statement, Nalan couldn't say anything more.With a sullen face, she left a subtle look at the concubines who flattered her, and she led a group of court ladies away.

Mu Lianyi bowed in vain, and forced herself to sit back in her original position.

Concubine Xian smiled and said: "Princess Xiangyang, don't be nervous, we sisters are just trying to show our friendship as landlords. It's rare for you to enter the palace today, so we naturally have to greet you well."

"Thank you, ma'am," Mu Lianyi said.

Concubine Liang who was sitting next to Concubine Xian burst out laughing: "Sister Xianfei is wrong."

"Oh?" Concubine Xian raised her eyebrows.

Everyone also cast their eyes on Concubine Liang, who heard her smile slightly: "Sister, didn't you hear the rumors outside? King Xiangyang is the prince candidate in the emperor's heart. Maybe it won't be long before Princess Xiangyang and him But I'm going to move to the East Palace! At that time, will there be fewer chances for us to meet?"

"Oh? That's true..."

Concubine Xian's murmurs echoed with Concubine Liang's.

The face of the empress sitting on the top seat was too dark to look at, her eyes were like knives, and she swished straight at Mu Lianyi: "So, Princess Xiangyang, I have to say congratulations to you here first?"

"Empress, you are joking!" Mu Lianyi lowered her head, and replied without humility: "Isn't the emperor's edict to establish the heir apparent not yet issued? There is no point in wishful thinking by all of us here. On the contrary, these If the words accidentally fell into the emperor's ears, that would be a serious crime."

"..." Everyone was shocked.

Only then did I remember that there is indeed a strict order in the palace that the concubines are not allowed to discuss matters in the court, and the matter of establishing a crown prince is even more sensitive.Among them, the queen, as the biological mother of the abolished prince, should be more cautious about this matter.

Otherwise, if the words just now reached Emperor Qingxuan's ears, then her Xiangning Palace and Lenggong would be no different.

The queen kept a straight face, secretly annoyed at her own negligence.

Seeing the queen's silence, the other concubines naturally did not dare to speak lightly.

Ever since, the imperial concubine never thought that she wanted to protect Mu Lianyi and wanted her to owe herself a favor.In fact, Mu Lianyi resolved the crisis with just a casual sentence.

The concubines who were instructed to help Mu Lianyi looked at each other.

Flower viewing with no deep meaning will become boring because of the topic of Li Chu.

It happened to be lunch time again, and Empress Situ waved her hand: "The sun is too big! Today's flower viewing will end here!"

"Yes!"

"Princess Xiangyang, come to Xiangning Palace to enjoy lunch with me?"

"Ah? Good." The astonishment only flashed in Mu Lianyi's eyes for a second, and she nodded quickly.Thinking in his heart, what does it mean that the old hag treated her coldly just now, and invited her to have a meal together?
As a junior, she couldn't refuse, but because of this, she kept an extra eye on her.

The queen smiled, and told the maid beside her: "Go to Qiankun Palace and have a look. If the emperor is free, please invite him to come and have a meal together."

"Yes!"

The maid saluted and walked quickly.

The suspicion in Mu Lianyi's heart deepened.However, as long as it comes, it will be safe.Sister, I boldly move forward...

Speechless all the way, he returned to Xiangning Palace.

When the maid in the palace saw that the queen had returned, she hurriedly passed on the meal.

It was also the first time for Mu Lianyi to see the empress's dinner scene. There were so many rules in it that Mu Lianyi couldn't help but sigh deeply: Hua Qingyi is better for her!
If it would be such a trouble to have a meal in Xiangyang Prince's Mansion, she would rather starve to death.

"The Emperor is here!"

Qiankun Palace is very close to Xiangning Palace.Not long after the maid left, the emperor came.It just so happened that the preparations in the dining hall had already been done.

On the big round table, there are 81 dishes, all of which are delicious in color, fragrance and taste.

Mu Lianyi didn't eat much in the morning. After drying in the garden, her eyes were already pale with hunger.

But in front of the queen who was hostile to her, she was very reserved.

She bowed to Emperor Qingxuan first, and then she sat down after everyone was seated.

Emperor Qingxuan's gaze had been on her since he entered the door, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Princess, please use it."

A court lady brought a small basin and walked in front of her. In the basin, there were blue waves and a faint fragrance.

Mu Lianyi saw a few tea leaves floating on the pot, thinking that it was just like a modern teahouse, it was for her to drink as an appetizer tea, so she took it, and just about to bring it to her lips, out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly saw Emperor Qingxuan Reach into the basin and use it to wash your hands.

She sweated a lot, put the basin back on the table, and reached into the basin to clean it.

Empress Situ sat beside the emperor and burst out laughing: "Yi'er, it's been almost a month since you passed the door. Didn't King Xiangyang teach you the rules of the palace?"

"..." Damn it!I knew you did it on purpose!
