Chapter 160: Empathy

The sound of the piano, the beauties, and the imperial garden of the ancient pavilion on the rockery as the background, the whole picture looks very poetic and picturesque.

Mu Lan felt a slight pain in her heart, especially when she saw that Dong Ling had focused all her attention on Gu Xianxian alone.

It turned out that he could also be so focused on another woman.

"Master, shall we... want to go there?" Qingmei Qingxue opened her mouth uncertainly, fearing that such a scene would irritate her, the two subconsciously moved closer to her, intending to block her view. [

Seeing it, Mu Lan felt warm in her heart, and said with a smile, "Since Your Majesty is over there, naturally I have to go over and say hello."

This harem is full of his women, but now there is just one more, what's so strange?It's just that I let myself see this fact clearly earlier.Although seeing it with her own eyes still made her feel very uncomfortable, but she couldn't face it.

In the pavilion, Rong Zixuan watched Mu Lan approaching gracefully, and couldn't help but sneak a glance at Dong Lingjue who was beside her.However, Dong Lingjue seemed to be immersed in the sound of the piano, looking at Gu Xianxian without even raising his eyelids.

Seeing this scene, although she felt a little sour in her heart, she was more happy, and the corners of her lips could not help but twitch.Seeing Mulan standing a few steps away from the pavilion, she deliberately said, "Hey, isn't that Defei's younger sister?"

Her voice interrupted Gu Xianxian's piano sound, and made the other two in the pavilion turn their attention to Mulan.Dong Lingjue glanced over coldly, with obvious displeasure on his face.

Mu Lan originally wanted to wait until the song was over before paying her respects, but now that the queen had spoken, she couldn't stand here anymore.Just as he was about to step forward, his heart trembled when he was stared at by Dong Lingjue's cold eyes.

This person's likes and dislikes are really distinct. When he likes it, it's good to indulge in every possible way. When he doesn't like it, is it a sin to even breathe in front of his eyes?Mu Lan lowered her eyes slightly, concealed her emotions, and said with a salute: "My concubine greets the king, and the empress."

Seeing that she was well-mannered, with a calm face, even in the face of his indifference, Dong Lingjue's face suddenly darkened, his thin lips were tightly pressed together, and he said nothing.

The atmosphere froze instantly, Rong Zixuan saw that he did not open her mouth to avoid her gift, so she smiled and said: "Where is Sister De Concubine going this morning? Your Majesty thinks that you are pregnant, isn't it already gracious?" Are you sure you don't have to say good morning? Why don't you take a good rest in Jinfu Palace?"

Although it is not difficult to perform this ritual of squatting sideways slightly, maintaining this posture is different from corporal punishment.Mu Lan knew that Dong Lingjue did it on purpose, but she endured it quietly.

When a man no longer pampers you, any sign of disrespect may cause him to humiliate himself.

Hearing Rong Zixuan mocking her for getting up late, Mu Lan just smiled and replied: "The concubine has made an appointment with the queen mother, and I will accompany her to the old man's garden today. It is expected that the queen mother should have had breakfast by now, so I will come here No. I never wanted to disturb the emperor's elegant mood of listening to the qin, and the concubine would plead guilty."

"I heard from the palace that the younger sisters of Concubine De are the most frequented in Ningshou Palace recently. No wonder the Queen Mother often praises you for your filial piety. My sister really has a heart." Rong Zixuan praised her, but her eyes were very bright. It was ambiguous, and then turned to Zhuo Wanyun on the other side and said: "Wanyun, you have to learn from Concubine De on this point. I remember that the guard who rescued you last time seemed to be the person in front of the Queen Mother, right? You also I should go to the Empress Dowager to thank you."

Before she finished speaking, there was a crisp "click", and the wine glass in Dong Lingjue's hand shattered into several pieces.

"Your Majesty..." Rong Zixuan exclaimed, and went to check his hand.Although she deliberately directed the words to that Xifeng, she never thought that the king's reaction would be so great.Looking at his palm again, it really started to bleed.

"Brother Huang..." Zhuo Wanyun also panicked, "Why are you so careless? Eunuch Wu, quickly call the imperial doctor!"

Gu Xianxian was sitting quietly watching, but seeing this, she couldn't care less about etiquette, and hurriedly took out a silk handkerchief and came forward, saying: "You have to stop the bleeding first, my lord, Xianxian will bandage it for you first." Bar?"

Mu Lan was also taken aback by his actions, especially when she saw the blood flowing from his slightly clenched palm, she panicked for a moment.However, before she could react, the three women in front of her had already surrounded Dong Lingjue, bandaging bandaging, condolence condolences, there was nothing wrong with her.

"A little injury, it's fine." Dong Lingjue said calmly, but still let Gu Xianxian carefully bandage the wound on his hand with a handkerchief. [

Seeing that he didn't care, Rong Zixuan frowned in distress and said: "I've lost so much blood, you have to go to court tomorrow, what can I do to review the memorial?"

"That's enough." Dong Lingjue raised the hand wrapped in the handkerchief, suddenly looked at Gu Xianxian, and asked in surprise, "Why are you crying?"

Gu Xianxian hurriedly turned her head away, wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Seeing this, Dong Lingjue softened his tone, and said: "I'm fine." It's just that there were some blood stains on his sleeves, and he got up and was about to go back to the bedroom to change clothes, when he remembered that there was Mu Lan present, the pair of Rui His cold eyes swept over her, and he said coolly: "Isn't Concubine De going to Ningshou Palace? Why are you still here?"

Seeing that he didn't want to see her for a moment, Mu Lan didn't have the heart to stay here, and replied: "Seeing that there is nothing serious about the emperor, the concubine is relieved. The queen mother may still be waiting for me, the concubine I will take my leave first."

"That's right, you've been here for quite a while, some people probably can't wait any longer." Dong Lingjue's cold tone made it possible for anyone to hear the metaphorical sarcasm in it.

Mu Lan was a little annoyed by him. However, after dealing with him for so long, she had learned to be calm and calm. She just brushed her body again and said, "Then, please take care of the dragon's body." Noticing how ugly his face was, he turned and left the pavilion.

Qingmei Qingxue and the others had been standing far away, but they could clearly see what happened in the pavilion. Seeing that Mulan's face was not very good when she came back, she was even more worried.

"Master, are you still going to Ningshou Palace?" Aunt Jiaru asked worriedly.

"Go, why don't you go?" Mu Lan responded lightly, it was originally agreed that she would go out of the palace with Meng Yiqing on the sixth day of the lunar new year, but now that things have changed, she has to speak to Meng Yiqing in advance.

What Mu Lan didn't expect was that Meng Yiqing, who was always optimistic and cheerful, was frowning deeply at this moment, sitting in a chair without saying a word, and Qing Wu was sitting beside her, quite anxious.

"Queen Mother, what happened?" Mu Lan had never seen her so solemn about something before, and she became nervous for a while.

Seeing her, Meng Yiqing squeezed out a smile and said, "It's nothing, why did you come? Aijia and Qingwu have been waiting for you for a long time."

Seeing that she was still covering up, Mu Lan simply asked Qing Wu beside her, "Qing Wu, why are you and the Queen Mother so sad? What's the matter?"

Qing Wu looked at her with some unease, then at the queen mother, and finally couldn't hold back and said: "Oh, let me just say it, when the king came up to greet the queen mother in the morning, he even brought that girl Gu along with her. , and asked the queen mother what she thinks of Miss Gu, which means that she is going to be kept."

Isn't it all a matter of time?Mu Lan said this in her heart, looked at Meng Yiqing, saw her worried face, and teased her as if it meant something: "This Miss Gu is beautiful and well-educated. Isn't it just a good thing that the Queen Mother has such a well-behaved daughter-in-law?"

Hearing this, Meng Yiqing ignored Qing Wu's presence, glared at her, and said, "Who is Aijia in a hurry for? You are still so heartless, what are you doing? Why don't you think about what's going on in your belly?" child?"
