The two governesses did not come.
The Empress and Consort Liang arrived at Qiluan Garden a step ahead of them.
"Her Majesty the Empress has arrived! Her Consort Liang has arrived!"
"Long live the Empress!"
May Your Highness, Consort Liang, enjoy boundless blessings and peace.
The Empress had not expected the Emperor to be at Qiluan Garden, and her steps faltered abruptly as she entered.
Then I saw Consort Shu and her servants kneeling inside the room.
The Empress's smile was somewhat stiff.
It's true that timing is everything; we just happened to be in the wrong place at the right time, right when the Emperor was throwing a tantrum.
"Why is Your Majesty so angry?" The Empress walked over and sat down beside the Emperor.
Emperor Yuanwu glanced at her indifferently and said nothing.
The Empress gave an awkward laugh, but still forced herself to continue, "Consort Shu is still in her postpartum period, so it is not appropriate for her to keep kneeling on the ground. Please, Your Majesty, have mercy."
Emperor Yuanwu turned his gaze to Consort Shu and said, "Consort Shu, please get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty," Consort Shu said softly.
Seeing his mother stand up, Mu Junxi also wanted to stand up.
Before his knees had even left the ground, he heard Emperor Yuanwu's furious roar: "Who told you to get up!"
Mu Junxi was so startled that he jumped back into his seat.
[Hahaha.]
This is hilarious!
Fifth Brother, you know what, you're kind of cute being all silly like this!
Hearing Mu Qianqian's inner thoughts, Mu Junxi couldn't help but mutter, "You're the stupid one, your whole family is stupid!"
Mu Qianqian: ...
Yes, yes, Fifth Brother is right. I'm stupid, my whole family is stupid!
Consort Shu: ...
Emperor Yuanwu:? ? ?
"Mu Junxi, what are you muttering to yourself over there?" Emperor Yuanwu, who was already angry, felt a lump in his throat as he looked at his son's disappointing behavior, making it hard for him to breathe. "How could I have given birth to such a stupid son like you?"
Mu Junxi: ...
While they were talking.
Wu Jixiang has brought Mu Junxi's two governesses to Qiluan Garden.
"Greetings, Your Majesty! Long live the Emperor!"
The governess didn't know what had happened, but when she saw the Fifth Prince kneeling on the ground, she had a vague sense of foreboding.
The Emperor ignored them and turned to the Empress, asking, "I remember these two governesses were carefully selected by the Empress for the Fifth Prince?"
The emperor deliberately emphasized the words "carefully selected".
"Your Majesty!" The Empress turned pale with fright and hurriedly knelt on the ground. "Your Majesty, I really don't know what these two governesses did wrong."
"They did nothing wrong, they're perfectly fine," Emperor Yuanwu said coldly.
The Empress, feeling wronged, pulled out a handkerchief and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes: "Today I learned that Consort Shu has been released from confinement, so I specially brought things to visit Consort Shu and the Seventh Princess. As for the matter of the nanny, I am really clueless."
Emperor Yuanwu glanced at Mu Qianqian in his arms and said, "I went to the Princes' quarters today and saw that the First Prince has lost a lot of weight."
Why did Emperor Yuanwu suddenly bring up the eldest prince?
The Empress's heart skipped a beat.
The eldest prince, Mu Junyao, was not born to the empress.
His birth mother, Consort Lan, died from severe bleeding during childbirth.
Mu Junyao was raised by the Empress from birth.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. It was my fault for not taking good care of you," the Empress said, flustered.
"Hmm..." Emperor Yuanwu said in a drawn-out tone, "I think the two governesses of the First Prince are indeed not taking good care of him. Look at the Fifth Prince, he's so well-fed and chubby."
Mu Junxi: !!!
Where is he fat?
