After being shocked, Murong Qingli felt disgusted with her younger brother Murong Che from the bottom of her heart.
As a member of the royal family, it would be bad enough if he just did not do his job all day long, but he even dared to slander the concubines in the harem.
It's really lawless and there are no rules at all.
No matter what, Si Muqiao was the Empress Zhenfei who was personally conferred upon her by the king.
She is Murong Che’s sister-in-law!
Since ancient times, there has been a saying that the eldest brother is like a father and the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother.
He, the emperor, had just not reprimanded Si Muqiao in front of so many people, so how could Murong Che dare?
Besides, what's wrong with suona?
If it weren't for Simuqiao's suona performance, he would not have been able to enjoy the farm banquet that he remembered so fondly.
What made him most angry was Si Muqiao's attitude!
That damn Si Muqiao even dared to confront him, the emperor, in person, but now facing Murong Che's shouting, he didn't say anything?
This is really infuriating!
If you have the guts, hit him and scold him!
What are you afraid of?
Anyway, he will stand on Si Muqiao's side and support her.
Murong Qingli was just about to rush in and scold this good-for-nothing brother when he heard Si Muqiao's voice coming from the cold palace.
"Prince Che, do you still think that my suona is ruining the atmosphere of this song?"
"Do you still think I'm joking?"
Hearing Si Muqiao's question, Murong Che quickly straightened his expression, stood up, bowed, and spoke sincerely.
"Empress Zhenfei, it was my fault."
"In the ensemble just now, your suona really added a lot of color to the piece."
"What I said before was too arbitrary. I apologize to you."
"I hope that Her Majesty Zhen Fei will be magnanimous and forgive me this time."
As soon as Murong Che finished speaking, he heard the Empress Dowager speak.
"Che'er, no matter what, Concubine Zhen is now a concubine of the second rank personally appointed by His Majesty. It is not for you, as a prince, to casually comment on her."
"I haven't even spoken yet, what qualifications do you have to criticize Concubine Zhen?"
"I see that you have really learned all the rules to your heart's content."
"From now on, without the decree of my family and His Majesty, you are not allowed to leave the capital at will, and you are not allowed to associate with those playboys. Study hard for me!"
"Grandmother, your grandson obeys your order." Murong Che's face suddenly turned bitter.
"Zhen Fei, I really enjoyed today's bonfire party. You, Li Zhaoyi, and Hao Meiren took great pains to attend to it."
"I am old now, not as old as you. It is time for me to take Chuan'er back home."
After hearing this, Aunt Lan hurried over and helped her up.
Murong Chuan, who had been sitting quietly on the side, also stood up and walked to the side of the Empress Dowager.
"By the way, Huo Sang, you and the Third Prince will stay in Changle Palace next to my Shoukang Palace tonight."
"Yes, Hawthorne obeys."
"Let's go!" After the Empress Dowager said this, Aunt Lan helped her walk out.
"It's time for me to take my leave!" Murong Che also followed and left the cold palace.
"I respectfully bid farewell to the Empress Dowager."
"I respectfully bid farewell to the Empress Dowager."
"Go slowly, Lord Che."
“…”
"Ding, congratulations to the host, the Queen Mother's favorability +5."
"Ding, congratulations to the host, the Queen Mother's favorability +10."
"Ding, congratulations to the host, the Queen Mother's favorability +5."
"Note: The current favorability of the Empress Dowager is 28. Please keep up the good work, host!"
"~~~" Si Muqiao breathed a sigh of relief silently.
She had just forced Murong Che to apologize in front of the Empress Dowager.
This forced the Empress Dowager to punish Murong Che, and she thought the Empress Dowager would be unhappy.
Unexpectedly, the Empress Dowager's favorability towards her increased rapidly.
This was something she had not expected.
When only Si Muqiao, Li Zhaoyi and Hao Meiren were left in the yard, Li Zhaoyi spoke in a cold voice.
"That annoying, unlucky guy is finally gone!"
"Sister Si, next time we see that Plague God, let's stay away from him!"
"Sister Li is right! I think so too." Si Muqiao nodded.
Murong Che is really annoying. Next time I see him, I will stay away from him.
If she can't avoid it, she will just attack directly!
"Yeah." Lady Hao also nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
"Madam Hao! What do you think?" Li Zhaoyi looked at Hao Duoyu.
After meeting Li Zhaoyi's cold and inquiring eyes, Concubine Hao knelt down hurriedly and said.
"Empress Zhaoyi, I also think that Prince Che is indeed wrong."
"I didn't hear anything you said just now."
"Empress Zhenfei didn't mind my coming to bother you, and she even let me taste so many delicious foods. I am extremely grateful."
"Sister swears that she will definitely stand on the side of Concubine Zhen."
Seeing the seriousness on Miss Hao's round face and her watery eyes filled with determination, Si Muqiao couldn't help but smile and helped her up.
"Okay, Sister Li is just kidding you!"
"You haven't eaten enough yet?"
"I've asked someone to reheat the pot. Let's go and have something to eat together."
"Yes, thank you, Empress Zhenfei!" Lady Hao's tone was full of excitement.
The three of them sat around the pot and started cooking again.
Seeing the pot boiling, Li Zhaoyi used the serving chopsticks to pick up a lot of dishes and put them into the pot.
When the meat slices were cooked first, she changed a pair of chopsticks and put several pieces into Si Muqiao's bowl.
"You've been so busy today that you didn't have a good meal. Eat more!"
"Thank you, Sister Li. You've worked hard. Yes, you can eat too!"
"Um."
Lady Hao, who was about to pick up her chopsticks, couldn't help but look up at the two of them, and an auntie's smile suddenly appeared in her eyes.
Ahhh, the interaction between two beautiful sisters at close range, so cool!
"Excuse me, Empress Zhenfei. Could you please lend me the poem about serving the country with loyalty to the country tonight?"
The person who spoke was Hawthorne who had returned.
"Prince Huo, please wait a moment." Si Muqiao put down the chopsticks in his hand and went to get the copied lyrics.
"Thank you, Empress Zhenfei!"
"You're too polite, Prince Huo." Si Muqiao smiled politely.
"Excuse me, I wonder if Concubine Zhen knew a little boy named Liuyun when she was a child?"
"Liu Yun? No...wait."
Si Muqiao was about to deny it when he found his brain suddenly buzzed.
Immediately afterwards, many related memories flooded into my brain.
As far as she could remember, she did know a little boy named Liuyun.
It was New Year's Eve when she was eight years old. Because the border was safe and sound, her father asked her eldest brother to take her to visit the surrounding towns.
She met the injured little boy Liuyun in a place called Lanshuang City.
Liuyun's head and body were covered in blood, and he was lying alone in the dark alley.
There was a beggar next to him who took advantage of his unconsciousness to touch something on his body.
At that time, she felt very sorry when she saw it, so she asked her eldest brother to drive away the beggars and send Liuyun to the clinic for treatment.
As a result, the people in the clinic said that his injuries were too serious, so they simply applied some hemostatic medicine to Liuyun and asked them to seek help from other doctors.
Seeing the weak and feeble Liuyun, she begged her elder brother to take him back to the barracks to see a military doctor for treatment.
Her eldest brother agreed and even sent someone to wait for Liuyun's family in the alley where he was injured.
Later, Liuyun was taken back and finally came back to life with the rescue of the military doctor.
But because of a head injury, he lost his memory and didn't know who he was or where his home was.
The person who went to the alley where Liuyun was injured every day to inquire about the news also said that he had never seen anyone coming to look for Liuyun.
So, Liuyun stayed in the military camp for a while.
He knew that Si Muqiao, who was a head taller than him, was the only daughter of General Si and the person who saved his life.
Therefore, he followed Si Muqiao every day waiting for her orders.
