After Mu Chenshuang returned with the silver needles, she administered acupuncture to Qi Ye.
Half an incense stick later.
Mu Chenshuang withdrew the silver needles. "Alright, let's get some rest tonight."
"good."
Mu Chenshuang carried the candlestick back into the room, sat on the stool, and subconsciously reached out to gently touch her lower abdomen, which was obviously protruding. She could clearly feel the fetus growing day by day, and when the summer season came, it would probably be difficult to hide it anymore.
She just sat there.
The flickering candlelight illuminated the woman's face, making it appear even more profound, and her deep pupils revealed nothing of what she was thinking at that moment.
After a while.
Mu Chenshuang blew out the candle and walked towards the bed to lie down and rest.
The next day.
Mu Chenshuang and Mu Chunxi then went to the palace.
Before leaving.
Lu Wei carefully explained to Mu Chunxi that since it was the Imperial Noble Consort's birthday, a gift had to be prepared, and Lu Wei carefully selected one for Mu Chunxi.
With someone taking good care of Mu Chunxi, Mu Chenshuang's side seemed much more deserted.
Outside the gate of the Marquis's mansion.
Before attending court, Lord Mu specifically instructed that the two of them should enter the palace together.
Mu Chunxi had not left the manor, while Mu Chenshuang was already waiting inside the carriage.
Linglong stood outside the carriage and complained, "Miss, why hasn't the second young lady come out yet? You are the head of the household, and she is being far too impolite."
She had barely finished speaking.
Three people walked out of the gate, and servants put the box on the carriage.
Mu Chunxi walked to Mu Chenshuang's carriage and said, "Chenshuang, I'm sorry, there was a slight mishap with the gift I was preparing for the Imperial Noble Consort. I need to prepare a new one, which took some time."
Mu Chenshuang's indifferent, cold voice came through the curtain, "Let's go!"
Then Mu Chunxi got into the carriage behind.
They made their way to the palace.
As Mu Chenshuang sat inside the carriage, she had a bad feeling about something for some reason.
Inside Yaoguang Residence.
Fu Junheng received the message.
"Today's birthday banquet for the Imperial Noble Consort did not invite any princes or nobles from outside the palace. Only the concubines of the inner palace and the female relatives of officials of the third rank or above from outside the palace were invited," Jue Ming reported the information he had received.
Fu Junheng stood with his hands behind his back by the window. Sunlight shone on his stunningly handsome face, giving it a soft glow. A gentle breeze blew, and his silver hair fluttered lightly, creating a scene of unparalleled beauty.
The man's expression was calm, and his deep, dark golden eyes were unfathomable and profound.
"Continue to monitor the situation and report any developments immediately."
"yes."
After he left in despair.
Fu Junheng withdrew his gaze, his eyes darkening slightly.
Inside the imperial harem.
The Imperial Noble Consort's new favor has angered Consort Rong the most. Although she was not stripped of her title because of Consort Li's affair, the Emperor no longer favors her as unconditionally as before.
She had been subtly instigating the emperor to abolish the title of Imperial Noble Consort, but even when she was at the height of his favor, the emperor did not abolish the title of Imperial Noble Consort.
Now that the Imperial Noble Consort has been personally welcomed into the palace by the Emperor, and given that the Empress has always harbored resentment towards her, her situation will only become more and more dangerous.
Today, while attending the Imperial Noble Consort's birthday banquet, Consort Rong was throwing a tantrum in the palace.
At this moment.
A clear, cold voice, like snowmelt from a high mountain, came from outside the door: "If His Majesty sees you throwing such a tantrum for no reason, he will only distance himself further from you."
Consort Rong was startled. She frowned and turned around to see Ji Luoyan entering. She gave a self-deprecating sneer, "Why would His Majesty come to my palace now? His Majesty probably only has that Imperial Noble Consort in his heart."
