"Nangong Yuan, you're bothering me again." Qingyin muttered in dissatisfaction.
Nangong Yuan kissed her distressedly, "Have you taken the medicine?"
Qingyin shook her head, "Not yet."
Although the poison was cured, some sequelae were left on the body.
Nangong Yuan grabbed her hand and gently stroked it, "Since you haven't, then don't drink it in the future. The imperial physician also said that your body has recovered from the loss before."
Qingyin was startled, "But the child..."
Ever since the system broke down for no apparent reason three years ago, Xiao Qi has been lost in the sea.
She never had time to take the fertility pills.
Therefore, for the past three years, Nangong Yuan has been asking the imperial physician to take care of her body.
Nangong Yuan hugged her tighter, "Don't worry, the imperial physician said you're well now, and as for the baby, just let nature take its course."
After saying that, without waiting for Qingyin to speak, he lowered his head and kissed her lips.
I don't know when the curtains fell down.
The room here was gradually getting warmer, but in the Xiling Palace far away, the atmosphere was solemn.
Mulan Yan looked at the person in front of her and curled her lips sarcastically, "He, is so anxious?"
Yin Lian also looked alert.
But she knew very well that she and the princess could do nothing.
Ever since they returned to Xiling three years ago, the 3,000 soldiers they brought back were all from the Northern Dynasty. They knew that they were just puppets.
Now that the puppet has done what it should do, it is time for it to leave.
But Mulan Yan was unwilling to accept this. She had finally gotten this position, so how could she give it up just like that?
In the dim inner room, the candlelight flickered gently.
The man standing suddenly spoke up, "Could it be that Imperial Concubine Mu has forgotten the deal she made with the Emperor? He helped you get revenge, and you offered the entire Xiling. Now that Imperial Concubine Mu has achieved her revenge, it's only natural that she fulfills her promise."
"What if I don't? I'm already the Queen of Xiling, and my brother is gone. If anything happens to me, the people of Xiling will know it's all a conspiracy. Do you think they'll still be willing to submit and become a vassal state?"
"Since Concubine Mu is the queen of Xiling, she will always be so." The corners of her lips hidden under the gauze hat curled up slightly.
If someone saw it, they would be very surprised.
The face under the veil was exactly the same as Mulan Yan's.
Mulan Yan was startled, then delighted, "You mean..."
Before he could finish the rest of his words, the smile on his face turned into horror.
Yin Lian was so frightened that she froze on the spot. "You, how come..." Then she looked at Mu Lanyan again, "Princess, she, how come she looks exactly like you?"
"The show is over, isn't it time for Lord Sheng to come out?" As he finished speaking, another man walked out from the shadows. The man had black hair tied up high with a jade hairpin, and he was wearing a black double-breasted robe, which was elegant and graceful.
Mulan Yan could no longer maintain her posture. She pointed tremblingly, "You, you are also Nangong Yuan's?"
Sheng Huaijing said softly, "Yes and no."
"What's the meaning?"
Three years ago, this man was just a talented but unappreciated candidate. It was she who discovered him and secretly supported him.
Now he has been given the position of prime minister, second only to the emperor.
Thinking of this, Mulan Yan felt a bitterness in her heart.
Sheng Huaijing didn't reply, but just looked at Yan Yu, "Nangong Yuan promised me something, will he do it?"
Yan Yu curled his lips and smiled the same way as Mu Lanyan, "Of course."
Sheng Huaijing then looked at Mu Lanyan, "Princess, are you willing to go with me?"
Three years ago, it was she who pulled him out of the abyss.
From the first moment he saw her, he knew he was attracted to her.
In the past three years, he worked hard to climb up, just to be closer to her.
Just closer.
Because he knew that she was not only the princess of Xiling, but also the imperial concubine of the Northern Dynasty emperor.
She just came back to visit her family and will go back one day.
But unexpectedly, as she got closer to the center of power, she realized what she was facing.
But relying on himself is like an ant trying to shake a tree.
Just then, Nangong Yuan's men found him.
"Go with you?" Mulan Yan was stunned.
Sheng Huaijing slowly walked towards Mulanyan, and then stopped when he was three steps away from her. His amorous eyes looked at her affectionately at this moment, "Yes, follow me. Although I can't give you the supreme position, I will treat you well for the rest of my life, only you well."
Maybe it was the words "be good to her" that made Mulanyan lose her mind for a moment.
Yan Yu suddenly spoke up, "Master Sheng is a man of great talent. It's a shame to see him go like this. You should think about it carefully again."
Sheng Huaijing didn't reply, but just looked at Mu Lanyan steadily, waiting for her to nod.
Mulanyan suddenly hesitated.
If I didn't understand the meaning of taking her away just now, I know now.
Three years ago, she was able to pull him in, but it was just because she wanted to take advantage of him.
She wasn't worth giving up on.
"I'm sorry, Master Sheng."
"Princess……"
Sheng Huaijing wanted to say more, but Mulanyan interrupted him, "Thank you for your kindness, Lord Sheng. I was first the Imperial Concubine of the Northern Dynasty, and then the Princess of Xiling. These days, I have been grateful for your kindness. The people of Xiling need you..."
But this time, before Mulanyan could finish, Sheng Huaijing interrupted her, "What about you? Do you need me?" He said the last four words carefully, fearing that she would refuse again.
Mulanyan suddenly smiled, just like the first time they met.
She lifted the curtain of the carriage and said to him with a smile, "My Lady Wen has read Master Sheng's poems. He is truly talented."
Those who pushed him slowly stopped.
