Dan'er was so angry that tears welled up in her eyes. Deep down, she always felt indignant for Mo Qinghuan.
Shuang'er witnessed this scene. She pulled Dan'er aside and asked, "Sister, what's wrong with you?"
Dan'er poured out what Gu Qinglan had just told her. Furious, she kicked and stomped at the pillar.
"How could the prince be like this? They've just been married for a few days, and he's already going to take a concubine!"
Dan'er tried desperately to give her a wink, but she still finished speaking.
"Miss," Dan'er called out. Shuang'er suddenly snapped back to reality.
"What are you two making such a ruckus about?" Mo Qinghuan heard what Shuang'er said. But before, Mu Yanming had said that he wouldn't take a concubine.
So this was probably just a common trick of the white lotus. Gu Qinglan must have deliberately said it to anger Dan'er.
However, when she recalled that kiss, she felt that it might not be the case. Anything was possible.
Just as she was thinking, Mu Yanming returned.
"Get ready. Come with this king to the palace. The queen mother wants to see you."
Mo Qinghuan followed Mu Yanming into the room. "Why does the queen mother suddenly want to see me?"
"She only said she wanted to see you. In any case, act according to the situation and protect yourself. Don't bother about anything else." Mu Yanming's voice was cold. Mo Qinghuan looked at his lips but didn't notice anything unusual.
"What are you looking at? Is there something on this king's face?"
Mo Qinghuan shook her head. "No." Then she went to change her clothes.
When she arrived at the carriage, Mu Yanming was already inside. He had also changed his clothes.
To Mo Qinghuan's surprise, Mu Yanming was wearing the same color scheme as her today. Mu Yanming was dressed in a dark blue brocade robe with cloud patterns, while Mo Qinghuan was wearing a dark blue silk dress with cloud patterns.
But as far as she remembered, Mu Yanming always wore raven - blue or ink - black clothes. She never thought that he would look so different in light - colored clothes.
Previously, one could feel a killing atmosphere from Mu Yanming even from a few steps away. But today, this outfit made people inexplicably want to get closer to him.
Mu Yanming saw her staring at him in a daze, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl slightly.
It seemed that Lu Zixiu had good taste.
After arriving at the palace and getting off the carriage, the two walked on the long palace path, making a truly beautiful sight.
Everyone who saw them was amazed.
Mo Qinghuan even heard a few suppressed screams.
She glanced in the direction of the sound and saw two little palace maids.
"Wow, the regent is so good - looking!" One little palace maid covered her mouth.
The other little palace maid stamped her feet excitedly. "The regent and the regent's wife are definitely a perfect match. In my opinion, there's no more compatible couple in the capital."
Mo Qinghuan couldn't help but burst out laughing. She thought that all women with eyes would like Mu Yanming, but unexpectedly, there were CP fans.
"What are you laughing at?" Mu Yanming asked her sideways.
She scratched her head. "Ah? Did I laugh?"
Bai Ke added fuel to the fire. "My lady, you did laugh. Really, and it was quite loud."
"Bai Ke," she gritted her teeth, clenched her fist, and waved it in front of Bai Ke.
Bai Ke was so scared that he raised his hands.
People not far away saw this scene and also raised the corners of their mouths.
"I didn't expect the regent and his wife to have such a good relationship," Leng Nier said, supporting Mu Yichen in front of the queen's palace gate.
Mu Yichen gently scraped the tip of her nose. "Are you implying that I'm not good enough to you?"
"Your Highness, what are you saying? Our relationship is of course even better."
As they were talking, Mo Qinghuan and Mu Yanming also walked over.
"Greetings to the elder brother and sister - in - law."
Then, they all walked in together.
The queen was sitting in the yard. When she saw them coming, she happily stood up to greet them.
"What a coincidence. Why did you all come together?"
Mu Yichen went over to support the queen. "Mother, we just happened to meet at the gate."
"Alright, sit down."
The queen sat down first. But when Mo Qinghuan looked at her, she felt strange. Why did the queen act as if nothing had happened after losing her son?
And she had mysteriously summoned them all to the palace.
Just as she was thinking, the imperial physician who had taken her pulse before walked in with several old men.
"Today, I've summoned Chief Physician Tan to take a good pulse of the four of you."
The four of them looked at each other, full of suspicion.
"Mother, what are you doing?" Mu Yichen asked the question they all wanted to ask.
The queen took Mu Yichen's hand and said earnestly, "The matter of the imperial heirs is of great importance. Now, the emperor doesn't have a single grandson or grand - nephew. How can I and the emperor not be anxious? So the emperor has entrusted this matter to me and asked me to keep a close eye on it."
Mo Qinghuan was speechless. It was actually a large - scale scene of urging them to have children.
She looked at Mu Yanming for help, but Mu Yanming slightly shook his head, signaling her not to worry.
"Alright, start the diagnosis."
The four of them awkwardly stretched out their hands and let the imperial physician take their pulses.
After a while, the imperial physician put away the pulse pillow.
"How are their bodies? Do they need any tonics?" Mo Qinghuan almost burst out laughing. This queen was so funny.
"Your Majesty, except that the regent's wife is a bit weak, the others are all in good health."
The queen looked at Mo Qinghuan, took her hand, and said, "A bit weak. Then prescribe some medicine to tonify her well. Also, now that the regent is married, he shouldn't be too busy with military affairs. He should accompany the regent's wife well."
"Your Majesty, please rest assured. This king will accompany her well." Mu Yanming looked at Mo Qinghuan and gently raised his eyebrows.
Mo Qinghuan rolled her eyes and shifted her gaze.
After chatting for a while, the queen finally let them leave.
Mu Yanming and Mu Yichen walked in front, while Leng Nier and Mo Qinghuan walked behind. Leng Nier held Mo Qinghuan's hand.
"Sister - in - law is a bit thin. You really need to tonify your body well," Leng Nier said and then laughed herself.
Mo Qinghuan turned to look at her. This second prince's wife seemed to be in good health. She walked briskly, and there were even calluses on her palms. She must be a martial artist.
Moreover, looking at her complexion, she was radiant, which showed that she was living a comfortable life. As for why she hadn't had a child yet, they must have their own plans.
However, it was different for her and Mu Yanming. They hadn't consummated their marriage, so no matter how much she tonified her body, she couldn't give birth.
No, they got married as part of a deal. After it was done, they would separate. There was no need for tonics at all.
Just as she was thinking, the two people in front slowed down.
"Elder brother, I wonder if we can find the eldest brother at the welcome banquet three days later..." As soon as Mo Qinghuan and Leng Nier walked over, they heard Mu Yichen say this.
Mu Yanming gently patted his shoulder. "Don't worry. At the welcome banquet three days later, this king will definitely find your eldest brother and personally send him here."
After saying that, he reached out his hand to Mo Qinghuan. "Let's go."
