Chapter 531 Where to go?
Zhao Mu left the Imperial Garden and turned around to come to Chuxiu Palace.

All the beautiful ladies that Cheoljong had given him before now lived here, including Musa.

When leaving the Imperial Garden, Zhao Mu passed by the Western Region Hot Spring in the palace. He couldn't help but recall the experience of serving his sister-in-law and mother-in-law, the Western Xia imperial concubine Pasha, in a bath.

Zhao Mu had tasted women from all over the country surrounding the Song Dynasty, but he had never tasted the "flavor" of the Western Regions.

Although his elder sister Pasha left with the King of Xixia, Zhao Mu could not get her and could only enjoy the sight of her. But his younger sister was still in his hands.

When they arrived at Chuxiu Palace, all the women bowed to him.

Zhao Mu ignored everyone else and went straight to Musa.

As a person from the Western Regions, Musa was not only beautiful, but also good at singing and dancing. At this moment, she was learning dancing skills with Hongluan and her dancers. Although the dancers were very good at Hu Xuan Dance, they were still inferior to the little Hu girl in front of them.

It's not that their dancing skills are worse than Musa's, they just lack in their appearance of Han Chinese from the Central Plains. Musa's Semu appearance, when dancing this way, makes her look even more bright and beautiful.

Musa was dancing, so Zhao Mu stopped in front of the door and watched. When Hongluan saw Zhao Mu coming in, she was about to stop playing the pipa, but Zhao Mu waved at her.

Seeing that there was no need for everyone to bow to Zhao Mu, Hongluan and the others did not stop playing music.

Until Musa finished the whole dance.

After Musa finished dancing the whole dance in front of all the sisters, she also playfully bowed to everyone.

At this time, when she heard the applause echoing in the hall, Musa noticed that Zhao Mu was standing in front of the door.

When Musa saw Zhao Mu coming, she quickly bowed and said, "Your servant Musa greets His Majesty."

The dancers also saluted Zhao Mu together.

Zhao Mu smiled and said, "Everyone, get up. I just didn't expect Musa to be able to sing and dance!"

Musa stood up and answered, "I learned it from my sister when I was young, but I haven't danced for a long time, so it's a little rusty now."

Zhao Mu said, "I have nothing to do today. I wonder if Musa would be willing to dance for me again?"

Musa replied with a smile: "As long as the Lord wants to see it, Musa is always available."

Zhao Mu said, "Well, that's great." Then she was about to take Musa away.

The musicians wanted to go along, but were stopped by Hongluan.

Hongluan looked at Musa's departing back and couldn't help but sigh, "Alas! It seems that this girl's days as a maid are coming to an end."

At this time, the dancer beside Hongluan asked, "Ah? Didn't the Lord ask Musa to sing and dance?"

Hongluan chuckled and said, "If it was really a singing and dancing performance, why didn't they call us, but a yellow-haired girl instead? Although she dances OK, she is far inferior to us. Besides, if the Lord really wanted to summon him, why would he come to Chuxiu Palace in person?"

The dancer murmured, "That's true."

Hongluan also let out a long sigh and said, "Since His Majesty has gifted us to the Lord, all of us are his people. It is his prerogative to do whatever he wants to us. But this is also Musa's good fortune. Rather than being driven out of the palace to marry when she reaches a certain age, it is better for the Lord to appreciate her and stay in the palace."

The dancer also sighed, "Yes. Especially for us, the descendants of criminal officials who were sent to the imperial music school since childhood. We still have a place to stay in the palace. But where can we go after leaving the palace?" Hongluan also said with some sadness, "Yes, where can we go?"

Zhao Mu brought Musa straight to Tangquan Palace.

However, this place has been renamed "Huaqing Palace" by Zhao Mu.

Since His Majesty had bestowed upon him the reign title of "Zhenguan" and he sat on the throne of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, Zhao Mu simply regarded himself as the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and everything in the Qi Palace was named after the palaces of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

Although it cannot be called "Daming Palace", Zhao Mu also called his own Qi Palace "Xiaoming Palace".

When Musa saw this Western-style bath, she asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to watch me sing and dance here? But it's very hot and stuffy here, and there are no musicians."

At this time, Musa finally understood Zhao Mu's intention. She blushed and then stood there with her head down.

Although Musa didn't mind marrying a great hero like Zhao Mu, she couldn't get used to it now that the situation had really happened to her.

Moreover, she had the best relationship with the two Khitan girls who came with her in the entire palace. She heard them mention Zhao Mu's... When Musa thought of this, her face turned even redder.

Zhao Mu was not polite. Under the arrangement of the palace maids of Huaqing Palace, he slowly walked into the hot spring pool. Then Zhao Mu did not say anything, just lying in the pool, looking at the shy little girl.

However, Zhao Mu couldn't wait any longer, so he winked at the maidservant beside him. Then two maidservants came to Musa's side, and one of them smiled and said, "Congratulations to you for winning the favor of the emperor. I will help you undress."

Upon hearing this, Musa opened her arms and allowed the palace maids to take off all her clothes.

Looking at the fair and crystal body of the little girl in front of him, Zhao Mu couldn't help swallowing his saliva.

But Zhao Mu was somewhat disappointed. Musa was a younger sister, and she was not as mature as her older sister Pasha. Zhao Mu really regretted not having such a good opportunity to have a kiss with Pasha in the Xixia Palace.

After Musa took off all her clothes, she took a deep breath and calmed herself down. Then she slowly went down into the pool and walked towards Zhao Mu.

Musha was very well-behaved. She slowly walked to Zhao Mu's side and then lay down beside him.

And seeing that she was so sensible, Zhao Mu didn't hesitate and just hugged her.

Seeing her shy look, Zhao Mu asked, "What's wrong? Why are you still shy? This is not the first time we met."

Musa didn't dare to look at Zhao Mu's expression at this time. She tilted her head and said, "Of course, I came to the king's mansion by accident. At that time, I also accepted the task assigned by my sister and planned to stay by your side. Of course..."

Zhao Mu pinched Musa's little face and turned her cheek. The two looked at each other, and Zhao Mu said, "Oh? Now you don't have any mission?"

Musa shook her head and said, "Of course not. Fang Zuoshi has led his followers to submit to the Song government. And my sister asked Fang Zuoshi to tell me that since I have entered the palace of the Lord, Musa will be his person from now on. Let me serve the Lord well in the future."

Zhao Mu said with a smile: "Hmm! I didn't expect that my mother-in-law really loves me."

But Zhao Mu let go of Musa at this time. He said, "Oh, girl, I'm going to ask you one last time. Are you willing to stay with me? If you are willing, I will favor you today. But if you don't want to stay with me at all, I will send you out of the palace."

Hearing Zhao Mu's question, Musa answered directly with her actions. She put her arms around Zhao Mu's neck, hugged him and said, "Of course I am willing. And not only I am willing, but all the sisters in Chuxiu Palace are willing."
