C136 First time to see imperial concubine (2/2)
It was truly surprising for the Empress to suddenly say that she knew her mother.
As if she saw Mu Ru Yue's doubt, the girl stood up slowly and put down the embroidery in her hand. She then said gently, ”I live deep in the palace and rarely do things unexpected happen, so I have never seen you before. You don't know I should. ”
”Does mufei know your sister-in-law's mother? What kind of person is she? ” Princess Wuyou who was at the side seemed to be even more curious than Mu Rong Yue as she asked. The woman glanced at Princess Wuyou, frowned, and said, ”Wuyou, you go out first. I have something to say to my consort.”
”But …” Princess Wuyou was slightly worried.
”Alright, you're not going to listen to mufei's words anymore?” the woman asked. Princess Wuyou's head drooped as she turned around to leave. After they left, the woman said, ”You and your mother really are like a pair of eyes.”
”Is that so?” Mu Ru Yue replied calmly.
”Aren't you curious about what kind of person your mother is? Is she still alive? ” The woman couldn't help but ask as she was surprised by Mu Ru Yue's calmness. Mu Ru Yue shook her head. ”I don't care if she's still alive or not. I really don't care what kind of person she is. After all, I have nothing to do with her. ”
Mu Ru Yue's words made the girl chuckle. ”Your character is similar to hers. Your mother... He is the most willful person that I have ever seen, and also the most beautiful person that I have ever seen. However, she doesn't want you to inherit her looks. Now it seems that her wish has come true. ”
”Esteemed imperial concubine, if you have something to say, just say it. There's no need to tell me these things.” It wasn't that Mu Ru Yue wasn't curious at all about the original owner's mother. It was just that what she had heard from others wasn't better than what she had seen.
If she could, she hoped to see that woman one day. Not to be mentioned.
Mu Ru Yue's words stunned the girl for a moment, but she soon relaxed. ”This consort has called you here today to ask you how do you plan to deal with the matters of the Linglong Palace?”
”All of this is for the empress to decide.” Mu Ru Yue pushed the blame to the empress without any hesitation.
”In this world, not everything is as you think. Perhaps very soon, you will become the main culprit behind the re-opening of Linglong Palace. ” The woman's tone was light, but certain. Mu Ru Yue looked at the girl and asked, ”Why can't I open the Linglong Palace?”
”The Linglong Palace has been reactivated. In the future, it will have to stay with the owner. How many women were there in this harem? He was afraid that because of this palace, they would fight to the death again. I don't want to see that kind of scene. ”
From the look on her face, she seemed to be feeling pity for him.
Mu Ru Yue didn't say anything. She just didn't want to make Feng Zhi sad about Linglong Palace. As for the woman from the harem? From the moment they stepped into the Imperial Palace, hadn't they already decided the path they would walk in the future?
If one were to say that the Empress's hands had never been stained with blood, even she would not believe it.
To be able to live so comfortably in the Imperial Palace, how could he not pay a price? Murong Yue didn't reveal it on her face. She only bowed respectfully and said, ”The Empress is merciful to the heavens. However, the matters of the Linglong Palace are not something that a weak girl like me can decide.”
Seeing that Mu Ru Yue seemed to have steeled her heart and didn't want to say anything, the girl was slightly disappointed. However, he still smiled and said: ”Since that's the case, then I will be forcing you to do so. Since the Princess has come to my house, let her rest here. ”When the sun sets and the Seventh Prince comes looking for you, it's good to leave.”
”Thank you mother, but Mu Ru Yue shouldn't bother you any longer.” As Mu Ru Yue spoke, she headed outside.
”The wangfei and Wuyou are good friends, there's no need to be so polite here.” The woman said as she looked at Mu Ru Yue's back. Mu Ru Yue's steps halted as she turned to look at the esteemed imperial concubine. ”I'm just a friend of Princess Wuyou.”
With that, he left.
The girl was stunned by Mu Ru Yue's words. After she reacted, she couldn't help but chuckle. He was just a worry-free friend, so how could he not be controlled by her? What a clever woman. Thinking this way, the woman's expression darkened.
Outside the door, Princess Wuyou saw that Mu Ru Yue had come out so quickly, so she hastily went to greet her. ”Royal sister-in-law, the mufei isn't making things difficult for you, right?”
