The palace concubine is charming and chaotic: the country is still the same

Chapter 156: Curtain Red Makeup (5)

"Actually, it's good to be here. Although life is a bit more difficult, but away from the court's calculations, life doesn't have to be so tiring. For the first time in these years, my heart is so quiet and peaceful." At this time, Shi Jingrou's eyes were full. It's a deep affection, and there is nothing to hide. She smiled and said to Mu Piaoyu: "When I was high above you, you never opened your eyes to look at me. On the contrary, I am down and down, but you can come here to see me. I would rather spend my whole life in Lanting Waterside Pavilion, so that your eyes can stay on me."

But Mu Piaoyu didn't seem to be able to see the affection in her eyes, her voice was as cold as frost: "Imperial concubine, I'm just doing my duty."

Shi Jingrou asked unwillingly: "Could it be that the general really doesn't have the slightest affection for me?"

"The imperial concubine is the king, and I am the minister, so I dare not overdo it." Mu Piaoyu said, and then said: "The imperial concubine gave birth to the fourth prince and is weak. I will order someone to send you some supplements and medicines to keep you healthy." Be in good health, only then can you be worthy of your mother and concubine who is far away in Qi country."

Shi Jingrou shook her head and said: "No, you have feelings for me, otherwise why would you treat me so well and help me several times when I was in danger..." Before she finished speaking, Mu Piaoyu interrupted: "The minister was entrusted by the noble concubine's mother, Li Duanfei, and she told the minister a story..."

Mu Piaoyu paused, looked at Shi Jingju with a bit of regret in his eyes, and said: "There is a girl in Qi State. Her mother and concubine are of low status, and she has been repeatedly suppressed by the concubines in the harem. In order to protect her mother and concubine, the girl, Since she was a child, she played scheming tricks and constantly created coincidences, so that her father regarded her as a lucky star and loved her even more. When she grew up, in order for her mother and concubine to gain the attention of her father, she offered to marry far away. The only reason is to be able to become a queen one day, and to be able to bring the concubine to my side so that she will no longer be persecuted by anyone."

When Shi Jingrou heard this, her eyes suddenly turned sour, but she interrupted abruptly: "Don't look at me with such pity, I don't need anyone's sympathy, especially you, Mu Piaoyu.".

Seeing the grief and indignation on her face, Mu Piaoyu just hooked the corners of her mouth and said: "I just think that the girl in the story bears too much. Helping her is just a little effort, and she can't live up to a mother's entrustment." Turned around and left without any regrets.

Ding Xiang listened to Mu Piaoyu's words, and said angrily to his figure who was about to step out of the door: "Since General Mu thinks that what you have done is just a little effort, then it is just a little effort for you to mention the imperial concubine and the fourth prince beside the emperor. ".

Mu Piaoyu paused, looked back at the sleeping child on the bed through the screen, then looked at Shi Jingrou who had tears in her eyes, and said after a long silence: "It's really easy to speak for the imperial concubine beside the emperor, but I would like to ask the noble concubine to promise me one thing, if one day you really leave this Lanting Waterside Pavilion, you will show respect to the concubine Zhen in everything.".

"Do you love her?" Shi Jingrou questioned, but without waiting for his reply, she suddenly laughed and said mockingly: "I keep talking about the courtesy of a monarch and a minister, and I dare not go beyond it, but do you still guard this respect for Concubine Zhen?" present?"

"That's all I said, the imperial concubine remembers the kindness owed to me." Mu Piaoyu turned her head and walked away leisurely, leaving the room full of emptiness alone. .
