Even after Lord Mu finished speaking, the anger on his face did not subside in the slightest.
Looking at the disappointing Mu Yazhi and then at the seasoned Mu Chenshuang, Lord Mu shook his head once again.
Compared to Mu Chenshuang, Mu Yazhi is far inferior.
Ultimately, different environments produce different people.
Back then, Mu Chenshuang was decisive and ruthless in the military camp, and her combat ability was comparable to that of a hundred men. She started learning martial arts at the age of three, fought on the battlefield at the age of eight, and became a Po Jun at the age of twelve.
So when she returned to the capital at the age of fourteen, the emperor personally bestowed upon her the title of Princess.
Looking at Mu Yazhi, she is utterly useless.
"Father, how long do you plan to keep your daughter locked up? If I spend all day chanting Buddhist scriptures, won't I become a nun?!"
"How dare you! Even at this point, you're still spouting nonsense! Guards, take the Third Miss to the imperial court right now!"
Mu Yazhi originally wanted to plead for herself, but her words only made Lord Mu even angrier.
It truly was a case of lifting a stone only to drop it on one's own foot.
Next, Lord Mu severely punished Zhang San and the others, and the matter was finally dropped.
After everyone had left, Lord Mu reached out and touched his forehead, then his brows furrowed again.
"Shuang'er, I don't know what's wrong with me lately, but my eyelids have been twitching a lot, especially these last two days. I have a feeling that something is about to happen."
When only Mu Chenshuang and Lord Mu were left in the room, Lord Mu no longer concealed his worries and spoke his mind directly.
Mu Chenshuang stepped forward, her face showing concern.
"Father, are you feeling unwell? Would you like your daughter to take your pulse?"
Lord Mu was aware of Mu Chenshuang's medical skills, but he still refused.
"No, no, it's probably because I haven't been resting well lately, that's why my eyelids keep twitching."
After saying this, Lord Mu looked at Mu Chenshuang again and whispered his instructions.
"The court has been in turmoil lately, and unexpected things could happen at any time. It's safer for you to stay at home for the time being."
Seeing how much her father cared about her, Mu Chenshuang also nodded in agreement.
Meanwhile, the news that the Empress had been imprisoned in the Cold Palace had spread throughout the entire palace, and everyone was very surprised.
For a time, the entire palace was abuzz with discussion about the current Empress Shen Biyun.
"I never expected that the current Empress would be banished to the Cold Palace. Does that mean the Imperial Noble Consort will have absolute power from now on?"
"During the Imperial Noble Consort's illness, Her Majesty the Empress has been taking care of the Emperor. What could she have done wrong to warrant such a furious reaction from the Emperor?"
"Serving the emperor is like serving a tiger. Even the Empress sometimes cannot guess what the emperor is thinking. I just wonder when the Empress will be able to come out?"
"If the Empress is imprisoned, wouldn't His Highness the Crown Prince be in grave danger?"
...
Under the big tree, several palace maids lowered their voices and spoke one after another, their faces full of worry.
No one expected that, within just one hour, the high and mighty Empress would be banished to the Cold Palace.
Everyone knew that the Empress had fallen out of favor, but the fact that she was banished to the Cold Palace was still very sudden for everyone.
Some people still don't want to believe that the entire harem has changed so drastically.
After receiving the news, Emerald, who was by the Empress's side, boldly sent someone to deliver a message to the Prime Minister.
