"Your Majesty has arrived, the Queen has arrived--"

As this sharp voice was heard, everyone saw a man and a woman wearing dragon robes and phoenix costumes walking towards them, surrounded by a group of palace maids and eunuchs.

"Haha, it seems everyone is here!" The emperor laughed twice, then brushed his robe and sat down. His eyes paused slightly when he glanced at Mu Ruyue and Mo Xi.

"These two are..."

"Father," Yi Shaochen smiled and cupped his fist, saying gently, "This is Miss Mu Ruyue, my confidant, and the other one is her younger brother Mo Xi."

The emperor's eyes were deep as he looked at Mu Ruyue carefully, but he said nothing.

While he was looking at Mu Ruyue, her eyes fell on the two people behind him. Although those two people tried their best to hide their aura, she still found something wrong.

Yi Shaochen said that people from the Ouyang family were also here. Could it be that those two were from the Ouyang family? It seemed like they didn't want anyone to know their identities, so they hid behind the scenes...

"Your Majesty," the Queen's eyes passed over Mu Ruyue imperceptibly, and then she turned around and smiled, "I think Chen'er is not young anymore. Although he had several concubines in the past, they all died of sudden illnesses for unknown reasons, and he still has no offspring. How about giving him a concubine?"

The emperor laughed loudly and said, "The queen can make the decision."

"I think Miss Mu is quite nice. Why don't you give her to the prince as his concubine?" When the queen saw that Liu Yu was about to speak, she quickly winked at her.

Liu Yu could only shut her mouth, but her face was full of resentment.

Mu Ruyue's face darkened little by little, her eyes filled with endless coldness. All of a sudden, all the women turned their eyes to her, with envy and jealousy in their eyes.

Prince Chen is the son of the Queen, and his status is so noble that even if he becomes her concubine, it would be too high a level to marry. I wonder what kind of luck this woman has to catch the Queen's eye.

"Mother," Yi Shaochen's handsome face darkened, then he put on a gentle smile, but one could still see the coldness in his peach blossom eyes, "I'm afraid that I can't do as you wish."

The queen was stunned for a moment. She saw Yi Shaochen bringing Mu Ruyue to the banquet and thought he had fallen in love with this woman, but judging from the situation, it didn't seem to be the case...

"Mother, this is not the relationship between me and Miss Mu. If you want me to carry on the family line, just give me two beautiful concubines," Yi Shaochen smiled softly, and said, "Within three years, I will definitely let you hold a grandson."

When facing the queen, there was a hint of indifference and alienation in his expression.

Although he was nominally the Queen's son, he was actually born to Concubine Min. It was only because Concubine Min died during childbirth that his father gave him to the Queen to raise.

Therefore, he had no mother-son relationship with the queen.

She also has no good feelings towards Liu Yu, whom she likes.

Liu Yu's face changed and turned pale.

The concubine the Queen gave him was different from what he had asked for. His words were like a sharp sword, piercing her heart fiercely, making her sweat on her forehead and her eyes sad and resentful.

"Okay," the queen regained her composure and said gracefully, "I will send the two concubines to the palace later. You can make your own arrangements."

"Thank you, mother!"

Yi Shaochen raised the corners of his lips and glanced at Liu Yu's pale little face.
