Feng Cang personally helped Murong Qiqi put on the light green cape and fastened the belt for her. Then, he took out the heater and stuffed it into Murong Qiqi's arms before letting her go.
"His Highness really loves you!" Lin Kexin personally held Murong Qiqi's hand, smiling from ear to ear. The group of women left Taiji Palace under the Empress' lead.
After leaving Taiji Palace, Lin Kexin first brought Murong Qiqi to her Meditation Palace. Later, Wanyan Baozhu suggested they go for a stroll. Lin Kexin had a headache from eating the wind, so she ordered Yu Shishi to take care of Murong Qiqi while she stayed in Meditation Palace.
"Your Highness, it seems like Princess Bao Zhu won't let this matter rest." Nanny Du, who was standing beside Lin Kexin, brought her a cup of ginseng hot tea. "Just now, Southern Lin Duke handed Zhao Yang Princess to you. What if Princess Baozhu causes trouble?"
"What should we do? Hmph! BenGong has handed her over to the Crown Princess. Say, if something really happens, between the two lovers, who will the Southern Lin King dote on? "
Nanny Du covered her mouth and snickered at Lin Kexin's words. "It's all in the past. From what I see, there isn't a single man who doesn't like the new and dislikes the old. Not to mention the Southern Lin Prince, even the Emperor … "
Speaking up to this point, Nanny Du suddenly paused. Only then did she realize that she had forgotten herself and actually mentioned the thorn in Lin Kexin's heart. Without waiting for Lin Kexin to speak, Mother Du knelt in front of her with a 'pa' sound and gave herself two hard slaps on the face.
"That's what you get for being senile! Who told you to say the wrong thing! You have a bad memory! "
Lin Kexin, who was a little angry at first, calmed down a little when she saw Nanny Du's reaction. When Nanny Du's old face was red and swollen, Lin Kexin said, "That's enough. Nanny, don't say such words again in the future. If His Majesty hears about it, even I can't protect you!"
"Yes! Thank you, Your Highness! Thank you, Your Ladyship! "Lin Kexin nodded, and Nanny Du stood up.
However, Lin Kexin's good mood had been disrupted by Nanny Du's words. Lin Kexin's expression darkened. "How is the person from the Changqiu Palace?"
"Replying to niang niang niang, ever since Noble Consort Yue had a miscarriage, she has been sickly. Now she has lost a lot of weight and has become a living sickly beauty. His Majesty still goes there every day, but Noble Consort Yue seems to have a knot in her heart. She eats very little every day. I heard that she's now so thin that only bones remain. "
"Humph! Even if she's only skin and bones, His Majesty will still love her! " Hearing this, Lin Kexin could not help but raise her voice. Mother Du was so flustered that she hurriedly went forward to cover her mouth. "My Empress, this can only be said in private. If His Majesty finds out, it will be terrible! Have you forgotten what happened to Beauty Zhou? "
Nanny Du's words made Lin Kexin shiver.
Beauty Zhou only said one bad word about Yue Lanzhi. When it reached Wanyan Lie's ears, he pulled out her tongue. Previously, she was still a beautiful woman. Now, not only was she mute, her legs were also crippled. She could only spend the rest of her days in the Cold Palace. It was truly pitiful.
However, when Lin Kexin thought of the person in Changqiu Palace, she felt an inexplicable resentment in her heart. Yue Lanzhi had been in the palace for less than half a year, but she had been promoted from a talented person to an Imperial Consort. This kind of promotion speed was unprecedented in the palace.
Not only that, Wanyan Lie also gave her the Changqiu Palace, which was used for generations of Empresses, and he accompanied her most of the time every month. That was why she could get pregnant not long after entering the palace.
Although Yue Lanzhi's child was not saved in the end, everyone saw how much Wanyan Lie doted on her. Concubine De, who used to be famous, could not accept this. Not to mention that there were so many women in the harem who were eagerly waiting for the Emperor's pity.
In this harem, where there was more meat than wolves and more porridge than monks, which piece of meat did not want to be eaten by wolves and which porridge did not want to be eaten by monks. However, Yue Lanzhi occupied Wanyan Lie's place and rushed to the top of the harem. This inadvertently made her a thorn in the eyes of the women in the harem.
"She deserves it! In my opinion, she had a miscarriage because she accumulated too much resentment. That's why she was able to keep the child! "
"Shh!" When Nanny Du saw that Lin Kexin was getting more and more excited, she became even more frightened. She quickly looked around and heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that there was no one around.
"Your Highness, she is now in power and is the Emperor's flesh and blood. You can't touch her, so please bear with it! In this palace, there are many people who hate her. Naturally, there will be people who will deal with her. You have two princes to protect, so why do you have to lower yourself to her level? "
When Nanny Du mentioned the princes, Lin Kexin's mood became much better. When she thought of her second son, the Second Prince, Wanyan Yi, Lin Kexin finally revealed a smile.
Wanyan Lie had five sons and she had given birth to two. That was why she was conferred the title of Concubine De. This was something that Lin Kexin could be proud of. Although Wanyan Kang was a bit unruly, Wanyan Yi was a perfect person. He was also the strongest candidate for the position of Crown Prince.
There were three factions in the imperial court and the civil officials were divided into two groups. The group led by the father-in-law of the country supported the Crown Prince while the group led by the prime minister supported her, Wanyan Yi.
The military officials were led by Feng Cang and they supported the Emperor loyally. Whoever could get Feng Cang's support would be the future Emperor. However, Feng Cang seemed to be very stubborn. Now, he had become a popular candidate for the position of Crown Prince. This made Lin Kexin slightly worried. Concubine De and the Empress were thinking about how to win over Feng Cang and control him …
In Jingxin Palace, Lin Kexin was thinking about how to bribe Feng Cang and make him work for her son. Murong Qiqi was brought by Wanyan Baozhu to the Sun and Moon Lake in the palace.
"How is it? Our place is much more beautiful than Xiqi! " Wanyan Baozhu still raised his proud chin like a proud peacock and refused to look at Murong Qiqi.
"Yes." Murong Qiqi put on a poker face and nodded. She didn't say yes or no.
Although it was winter and it hadn't snowed yet, the surface of the lake was unusually cold and it emitted waves of cold air. Murong Qiqi didn't know why Wanyan Baozhu brought her here. However, looking at the faces of the surrounding women, she knew that there wouldn't be a good show. Thus, she was already prepared to fight.
Looking at Murong Qiqi's wooden fish-like eyes, Wanyan Baozhu couldn't understand why Feng Cang would like Murong Qiqi. Not only did she not understand, even Mu Yudie and Yu Shishi couldn't understand why Feng Cang's taste was so 'unique'.
