Ever since Mu Rong Yu had provoked them, he had been on guard, but there was no movement from his side.
His appetite was extremely good, and he didn't seem to be too overjoyed. His body that had lost some weight previously had grown a bit, and because of the added charm, Murong Yu naturally continued to favor her like a pearl.
The auspicious day for Duke Ming to marry Baili Xiu and Zhong Hanxue was almost here, and it was also the busiest time of the year. The Emperor had already passed down a decree to celebrate with the entire nation.
"Kui'er, if you are so obedient in the future, mufei can feel at ease." During this period of time, not only had Mu Rong Ming obediently cooperated with them on their marriage, he had also improved his attitude towards Wei Yinlan, which made her have a good impression of the Wei family, the Baili family, and the Zhong family. She was very clear on how outstanding her son was, and as long as he was willing to put his heart into it, he would be able to capture a few women easily.
Murong Ming smiled and said obediently, "Mufei, don't worry. Everything will go smoothly."
"Mm, I wasn't too worried about your marriage, but I was hoping that Ying Lan would be happy as soon as possible. You didn't see how good your father treated the Duke of Qin, but now that he's pregnant with a child, with the Duke of Qin's favor, who else outside the palace doesn't know, this isn't a good sign. Although your father has a good temper, he can't completely guess your father's character, and it wouldn't be good if he suddenly had a new idea."
Murong Ming put away his smile and said seriously, "Your son has also heard some rumors that the Crown Prince's health is sometimes good and sometimes bad. Royal father places so much importance on the diligent king, I wonder who the future King will be."
"That's right, even that old schemer Yun Chengling is talking to me right now. Did he get any news?"
This son of mine cannot be sure, but I feel that although father has treated me well, he has not kissed me to the bones. This is the true protection of Murong Yu, in these few days, he has been waiting for his wife in the palace every day, even if it was the morning court, but father doesn't have any objections.
"Is there such a thing? Why didn't you tell mufei? " Qian Yulian sat up nervously.
Murong Hui said with a smile, "So what if this son of mine told mufei? At most, mufei will complain to royal father a little, which might make royal father even more unhappy. Furthermore, this son is of no use, if this kind of matter can't be resolved, how can you think of anything else? "
"Yes, yes, my boy, you can be at ease now that you say that. Your royal father really doesn't like us women nagging in his ears." As long as you are willing to work hard, there will definitely be no problem. However, don't be too tired, if you have anything to do, you can try to find other people to share it with.
"Your son understands. Your son has said so much, so I just hope that mufei has some plans that she doesn't hide from me." This was Murong Yu's intention. Qian Yulian had been worried that he would do something bad and refused to tell him about many things, including dealing with the empress and the crown prince in secret.
Qian Yulian had originally let Murong Yu off the hook, but since Yun Shengyue was pregnant and the emperor had a clear preference for the Duty King couple, she was very unhappy. Furthermore, the reason why Murong Mingyue wasn't completely obedient was because she had always wanted to get rid of Yun Shengyue, which was something Murong Mingyue knew, so he had no choice but to think of a way to divert Qian Yulian's attention.
He was always following Qian Yulian and doing what she wanted to do. Murong Chong knew Qian Yulian's self-confidence very well. He always thought that as long as Murong Huiren listened to her and they shared the same thoughts, there was nothing that they couldn't accomplish.
"Mufei didn't hide anything from you, but luckily you're sensible now, mufei actually has a headache, and I've underestimated that woman, the empress. Right now, she's too stubborn to move, and if I force myself to make things difficult for her, she'll look even more narrow-minded and have no problems at all, which would make your Imperial Father angry."
"Mufei need not have a headache. There's not enough empress dowager. On the contrary, the crown prince is an extremely shrewd person. We should be more careful when facing him." Thinking of that farewell from the Duke of Qin's residence, Mu Rong Qing even specifically invited him to the Eastwood Palace to warn them about it. Murong Mingzi disapproved in his heart, but he was very dissatisfied with Mu Rong Qing's decision to stand on Mu Rong Yu's side. He and Mu Rong Yu grew up together and had a deep relationship within the palace, while Mu Rong Qing seemed to have become an outsider.
"Your Highness, your subordinate has already invited a famous doctor, and I have arranged for a place to wait upon you in the side hall." When he returned to the Jade Palace with a dark face, he heard the good news.
"Did you recount your illness to Doctor Liao in detail? What did he say? Can he treat you?"
"Doctor Liao said that it must have been caused by the accumulation of silt in his brain. As long as the silver needles are used to evacuate, it should be possible to recover in a short period of time."
"Alright, how is your connection with the Duke's Mansion?"
"There are no problems, what task does Your Highness have?"
"Send a note to that person for This King. You must be careful and deliver it to her, don't let anyone find out, and don't be anxious about this either. You only need to look for the right time and don't let anything go wrong. Understood?"
"Yes, this subordinate understands!"
"Alright, you've worked hard!" This King doesn't want mufei to have any rumors regarding this matter, so you should be clear about it, right? "
"This subordinate understands. This subordinate will only listen to your orders, Your Highness, please be at ease!"
"Alright, This King believes in you. As long as you do not disappoint This King, you will definitely be able to fulfill your wish in the future. You can leave now!"
For the past month, it was not that he had forgotten Yun Shengyue, but rather, he had been thinking of the most suitable method. He had long since asked Yun Feiyang for the cause and treatment of Yun Sheng's amnesia, but because it was inconvenient for him to be invited to treat it, he had people specially come to Wind City to invite the Feng City's needlepoint master, Liao Zhiqiu.
However, Yue'er's heart was innocent, and she was also extremely curious. Even though she was being coaxed by Murong Yu, he believed that she still wanted to know about his past. As long as he could trick Yue'er into leaving the manor to help treat her illness, he would definitely have to lure Murong Yu away.
However, he didn't even get to attend the morning assembly. For a moment, he really couldn't think of any way to lure him away from the manor. He still had to think about it carefully …
"Many thanks to big sister Jue'er. I'm really sorry for making you trouble for me all the time." The fact that Chen Ju`er was sending over different nourishment soup day in and day out made Yun Shengyue feel somewhat embarrassed.
Chen Ju`er gently smiled and said: "This nest was given to me by the palace. I just used a small stove to boil it for a few hours. We are good sisters, why are you being so polite? Eat more and let your baby grow healthy and quickly."
"Jue'er, you've worked hard. Just let the servants do these things." Jue'er was still Jue'er. Although he had done some outrageous things before, it was all for his sake. Now that he saw that she was not only concerned about his clothes and food, but also took care of Yue'er, he felt a little guilty.
Chen Jue`er smiled, "A hot pot of soup is a strong point of Jue`er. Your highness is not as tired as before, so there's no need to make up for it. Yue Er's body is frail, and she has a child, so she has to eat well.
A month of hard work had not been in vain. Not only had the prince and Yun Shengyue felt grateful to her, even the girl Cui'er, who always disliked her, had become a lot more courteous.
Chen Jue`er was secretly delighted in her heart. What Sir Lin had said was right. Killing people without seeing blood was the work of an expert. Let them be happy, let them see how long they can be happy.
Every time she saw Chen Jue`er, she would feel somewhat uneasy and disgusted, but it was not easy for her to express it. After all, she was Murong Yu's second wife, and if she rejected him without any reason or reason, it would make people feel that she was being spoiled and not understanding what was good for her. However, when Murong Yu occasionally looked at Chen Jue`er, the guilt and pity in his eyes made her feel very uncomfortable.
Although Murong Yu accompanied her to sleep every night, his desire was always so strong between the temples. She had also thought of letting him go to the Immortal Cloud Restaurant for the sake of her body, but she couldn't say it out loud. She knew deep down in her heart, she wasn't willing to let him go.
At night, especially when she was taking an afternoon nap, she would always have some strange dreams. Once, she had a dream about the endless snow, and that bone chilling feeling caused her to wake up. At that time, she still felt some hatred, but she didn't know who it was.
When Cui Er asked her what made her so happy, she didn't know how to explain, how could she say that the person walking hand in hand in the endless sea of flowers was another man, even though she hadn't been able to clearly see that person's face.
Her dreams of happiness and worry made her somewhat restless every afternoon. Fortunately, she was in the study room at this time, and she told Cui'er to keep quiet so that he wouldn't worry.
She had mentioned once before that she wanted to see Duke Ming, but Murong Yu seemed to be very angry that time and had left her with the word 'no'. Even though returning to her room at night was like nothing, she didn't dare to mention it again.
"Black One, what do you think the Yang City side means?" After Yunsheng took an afternoon nap, Murong Yu returned to his study as usual. He was not completely idle, because even if he wanted to stay idle, there was nothing he could do.
Black thought for a moment and said, "The Carefree King probably saw that the prince was favored and wanted to show good will!"
"No, I don't think it's that simple. You say that he can openly express his goodwill, but why must he secretly send gifts under the guise of others? There has always been a knot between the Carefree King and royal father. No wonder you don't want royal father to know? "
"If that's the case, I'm afraid it would be easier to fall into their trap."
"I think so too, so we should handle this with caution. Is there still no activity from Duke Ming's side?"
"No, it seems that Duke Ming focused on preparing for his wedding. Aside from the occasional visit to the Baili family, the Zhong family, and Duke Qian's mansion, he didn't do anything special in the palace."
"Alright, we still have to continue to pay attention to him. Anyways, we can't let him disturb the wangfei again, understand?"
"Yes sir!" "Yes!" Hei Yi responded. He saw Murong Yu lowering his head to look at the file before quickly leaving.
When Murong Yu saw him leave, he put the scroll down and leaned back on the chair with a sigh. How long was he going to stand guard like this for?
