The eunuch changed Lin Yi's clothes.

"Today, Madam Hu brought her daughter into the palace to see the empress dowager. The empress dowager has already come to urge her on." The eunuch replied carefully.

Lin Yi's hand paused for a moment before quickly recovering. He nodded his head to express that he knew.

The eunuch did not say anything more.

Su Mu had only left the royal study after a few minutes had passed. Lin Yi had held her hand for nearly two hours. She did not dare to move, so her entire shoulder was a little stiff.

The residual heat in her hands made Su Mu feel a little awkward. She still couldn't sleep after returning to the Shoukang Palace.

The sky had already begun to brighten, revealing bits of the white of the fish's belly.

Su Mu held a small and exquisite kettle as he watered the plants in the courtyard.

The small courtyard that Su Mu lived in was a little off. However, because of the importance that Lin Yi showed, no one dared to fool Su Mu. Thus, although the flowers and plants in Su Mu's courtyard weren't considered expensive, they were still extremely taken care of.

Several round dewdrops of dew were rolling on the dark green leaves. The flower bud had a tender and beautiful bud bud that was slightly trembling, as if it was waiting for the first ray of morning light.

The corner of Su Mu's mouth lifted slightly. It was as if a huge boulder had been lifted from his heart, making him feel much more at ease.

Su Mu went back to his room, unfolded the Xuan paper, and quietly studied the ink.

Su Mu continued to draw on the paper. When the sky became bright, a landscape painting appeared before his eyes. A person was wandering alone on the river surface, watching the sunset and the lonely ambition fly together.

"Miss Su, are you up yet?" A palace maid called out to Su Mu.

Su Mu replied and walked over to open the door.

The palace maid was holding a brown tray outside. On the tray, there was a pink-peach palace costume. Behind her were a few other pendants with various hairpins.

"This is?" Su Mu pretended not to understand, but he already had a plan in his heart.

"Today, the empress dowager held a Hundred Blossom Banquet in the Imperial Palace, inviting the sons and daughters of many ministers to the palace. Even Governor Hu's daughter came from the river and Zhejiang provinces. When the empress dowager saw that Miss Su had been cooped up in her room all this time, she specially sent a servant to invite Miss Su over to cause some trouble. " She was the empress dowager's concubine and had seen many scenes. In her eyes, the current Su Mu was not any more noble than she was.

It was obvious that the Empress Mother also wanted to use her to beat up Hu Chi.

Even though he knew that the empress dowager was making use of her, Su Mu didn't have any leeway to refuse.

Su Mu was as the empress dowager wished.

Faint eyebrows, light rouge.

The carefully dressed Su Mu was completely different from the usual Su Mu. He was less plain and more gorgeous.

But in the end, Su Mu refused the dress sent by the empress dowager. In order to intimidate Hu Chi, the dress sent by the empress dowager revealed her figure. Su Mu's lower abdomen was slightly protruded, and if he wore those clothes, he would be able to tell that Su Mu was pregnant as long as he had eyes.

This was Su Mu's bottom line. Su Mu was not willing to back down.

The two sides were in a deadlock.

The palace maid looked down on Su Mu and said: "Does Miss Su want to make things difficult for us servants?"

"It's you guys who want to make things difficult for me." Su Mu stood up and was slightly taller than the palace maid.

"I already know everything about the girl, why would I want to hide it?" The palace maid said sharply.

Su Mu sneered, "Even a slut wants to erect a memorial archway, not to mention the fact that the one who hired me is the Emperor and the Son of Heaven."

The palace maid's face was pale. She was frightened by Su Mu's words. She had never seen a girl with such vulgar words before, so she didn't know where the emperor took a fancy to her.

"If the emperor had heard …" The palace maid tried to threaten her.

Su Mu, however, did not buy it. "So what if he is? Why, are you still thinking that he did well to report you and bring you into the harem? If the empress dowager were to know that you've put these thoughts into your head, I wonder if she would be able to tolerate a palace maid like you. "

The palace maid was so angry that she could not speak.

Qingfeng suddenly came in from outside. Seeing the tense scene, he raised his eyebrows and asked: "What's going on?"

"Miss Zhuo, it was this servant that angered Miss Su. She was not willing to wear any clothes that this servant sent over." The face of the palace maid instantly changed as she looked aggrievedly at Zhuo Qingfeng.

Su Mu laughed and hooked up with Zhuo Qingfeng's thin back as he said: "You miscalculated another thing."

Zhuo Qingfeng curiously looked at Su Mu. It had been a long time since he had seen Su Mu so lively.

"She really is my sister." Su Mu said, "Therefore, those dirty schemes in your heart can be stopped."

Zhuo Qingfeng's mind was extremely sharp. When she heard Su Mu's words, she immediately guessed the cause and effect. She and Su Mu smiled at each other in tacit understanding.

The palace maid only felt as if a needle was pricked beneath her feet as she hastily left behind a sentence, "Up to you." He then left with his men.

Su Mu looked worriedly at the peach pink dress. She indeed didn't want to wear this dress, but there really wasn't anyone in her clothes who could hold up such a big show.

When Qingfeng asked what had happened, Su Mu told him the truth.

Qingfeng picked up the dress and touched it, "These clothes are made of excellent material, it should be from the Southwest Falcon Country. I don't know if I have the luck to wear it."

Su Mu understood what she meant and smiled, "Of course."

The two of them changed their clothes and went to the Zhiyuan Garden together.

The Gu Garden was a summer palace in the palace, with its back against the forest. It was hard to see the sun all year round, and winter was hard to bear. However, in the summer, it was extremely comfortable.

There were many pieces of ice in the garden, and the eunuchs had already finished carving them into a variety of objects, which were placed in various corners of the garden.

The rest of the carved ice was delivered to everyone present along with the fruits of the day.

When Su Mu and Qingfeng arrived, the empress dowager hadn't appeared yet. All of the young miss and young masters of each household gathered together in groups of twos and threes and chatted. If you wanted to test me, I would test you.

Lin Yi's harem was empty, so who wouldn't want to interfere? Not to mention, there were other princes and princes, even if they couldn't enter the eyes of the Emperor, it would be good for them to find a good marriage.

Su Mu and Qingfeng ignored all the searching gazes and hid in a corner.

"Hey, why is it you?" Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded from behind him.

Su Mu turned his head around and actually saw a familiar person. It was the man who flirted with Su Mu in the woman's clothing at the thrush shop the other day. However, compared to that day, Liu Zichen looked much healthier.

Su Mu frowned.

"Like I said, even if I was drunk, I wouldn't lose sight of a beauty's martial arts. She really is a great beauty." Liu Zichen spread out the fan in his hand, pretending to have a graceful look on his face.

"Why are you here?" Su Mu asked.

Liu Zichen smugly smiled, "I am the son of the King of Western Zhejiang. My father has done great deeds from the dragon."

Su Mu didn't expect that, "So the one who was imprisoned innocent was you."

Liu Zichen paused, flustered and exasperated. "That's because His Majesty valued me highly and placed great expectations on me …" Forget it, I'm a woman, you wouldn't understand even if I told you. "
