"Yu Qianqian, say it again... who is more manly?"
"You have masculinity, and your whole family has masculinity!"
Before the passion had even subsided, a gray-haired figure was thrown out of the tent and landed heavily on the ground with a thud.
Mu Beichen, who had been forcibly thrown out by Yu Qianqian, had a changing expression. Without even glancing around, he quickly picked up the scattered clothes on the ground and dressed himself with lightning speed.
Yu Qianqian is a woman with a strong personality who is extremely difficult to control. Mu Beichen is well aware of this. He originally thought that by bringing a man into the palace and violating the palace rules, he could take this opportunity to regain his strength and establish an imperial image. However, he did not expect that she had become so difficult to deal with that she refused to give in no matter what.
He bit his lip, staring longingly at the woman on the bed who was quickly falling asleep. He was filled with resentment, then changed his mind and left Fengyi Palace that very night.
Next, he directly ordered someone to go to the Imperial Household Department to find out where Mo Jingnian was.
Walking on the vast square, towering palaces, resplendent in gold, with their upturned eaves reflecting the sunlight, shimmered like twinkling stars. This was the first time in his life that Mo Jingnian had ever seen the true appearance of a palace. Every time he passed by, he couldn't help but marvel at the palace's magnificence and solemnity.
Led by the imperial guards, Mo Jingnian finally arrived at the side hall and stopped. As soon as he knocked on the door, a eunuch opened it to greet him, "Please come in, young master. His Majesty will be there shortly."
Mo Jingnian hurriedly lowered his head to return the greeting to the eunuch, his demeanor unusually reserved. After watching the other party walk away, he slowly entered the hall, where a dazzling array of items immediately came into view.
The palace was dazzling with gold and jade, so bright that he could not open his eyes. At the far end of the corridor, a golden throne on a high platform was the symbol of a king. On the table in front of the throne, writing brushes, inkstones, and rare copies of poetry were arranged in an orderly manner.
Such a luxurious place surpasses even the celestial palaces of the Nine Heavens. If ordinary people could even catch a glimpse of it, it would be an immense blessing. The place before him inexplicably put pressure on him, and even touching the smooth ground made his heart race for no reason.
Several light footsteps echoed from afar at the entrance of the hall, which was otherwise silent. A man in a black robe and golden crown, with a jade-like face and beautiful eyes that revealed a faint sense of cold arrogance, walked in, surrounded by a group of palace servants.
"His Majesty has arrived!"
A loud shout rang out in the hall, immediately bringing Mo Jingnian back to his senses. He went straight to Mu Beichen and knelt down to pay his respects. "This humble subject pays respects to Your Majesty..." He lowered his head, so nervous that he could not even speak clearly. He dared not look up at him. The emperor's majesty and the solemnity of the palace were suffocating.
By this time, Mu Beichen had signaled the people around him to leave, leaving only a personal eunuch by his side. The eunuch's deep gaze was fixed on Mo Jingnian, whose face was lowered so he could not see his features clearly.
Mu Beichen asked him coldly, his face expressionless, "Are you the man who followed the Empress into the palace?"
The voice wasn't loud, yet Mo Jingnian was inexplicably shaken. For the first time, he felt the emperor's majesty. He was so nervous that he felt uneasy all over, and even his voice trembled, "Indeed, this humble subject is acting on the orders of Her Majesty the Empress..."
