Scarlet Phoenix Crown

Su Muqiu withdrew her hand, stared straight ahead, Ruye's eyes seemed to encompass the world but seemed to be empty, "If the prince can do what the emperor wishes, then Mu Qiu will naturally do what the prince wishes."

Zhu Qingyuan didn't seem to expect that she would negotiate terms with him, his expression was slightly stagnant, but then he raised his eyebrows in an unclear manner, and smiled lowly.He forgot that the person in front of him is no longer the Su Muqiu who is obedient to him, just like when he played the quiz game with her back then, but now the person who takes the initiative is replaced by her.

Su Muqiu walked forward by herself, so she couldn't see the light of Zhu Qingyuan's eagle eyes behind her. In this hunting game, it is still unknown who will win the game.

From that side, Su Ze heard footsteps approaching behind him, but he was still as steady as a pine tree.She didn't move at all, but Su Muqiu stopped three steps behind him, and it was obvious that she only saw his back, which made her a little discouraged.Especially now knowing that she caused Su Ze to lose his wife, Su Muqiu felt a little timid in his heart, but finally he pushed the matter to the former Su Muqiu through self-hypnosis.

Su Muqiu took a deep breath, stepped forward again, and bowed his head to Su Ze as a courtesy.On the other hand, Su Ze still just kept his cold eyebrows solemnly, never even looked down at her, and his tightly pursed lips showed no intention of responding to her.

Su Muqiu also guessed that he would have such an attitude, but compared to Zhu Qingyuan, who had a different heart, she felt that it was easier to get along with the cold-blooded and ruthless Su Ze. At least she didn't have to wrong herself to pretend to be a strong woman. Take off your guard and rest for a while.

But it was silent for a while, Su Muqiu said hesitantly, "Qingzhu has already told me the reason why you hate me."

"???" Su Ze was silent, and only glanced at the green bamboo standing in the box from the corner of his eye, trying to figure out what Su Muqiu knew.

"Although I don't remember what happened back then, I still have to apologize to you. It is indeed my fault that you were unable to get married."

"??" Su Ze narrowed his eyes and looked at the person in front of him, with that familiar yet unfamiliar expression, Su Ze's slightly pursed lips trembled slightly, but he did not say a word.

"But the Su family was entrusted by the former emperor to assist us, this must not be forgotten." Su Muqiu lowered her eyes slightly, "As for your marriage, after the emperor's matter is resolved, I will definitely choose a better marriage for you , if you really like the previous one that much, it's not that you can't get married, if you really love her, why should you care about that scar?"

The corner of Su Ze's cold lips finally came to a deep voice, "I don't need you to worry about my affairs."

Su Muqiu's pupils tightened slightly, but she frowned lightly, "You and I are brother and sister after all, no matter how many faults we make, can't we forget it because of this blood relationship? Don't we want to be like this for the rest of our lives?"

"??"

"I have already admitted my mistake, and I am willing to make up for it. Besides, I also fell into the water and was frightened at the beginning, so it can't be considered even?" Su Muqiu pretended to speak lightly, but in fact, even she herself felt that her words were a bit unreasonable.But it is true that she wants to resolve the embarrassment with Su Ze.

"Let me say this one last time, I never thought of you as my sister, so don't expect me to let you go because of the so-called blood relationship, you owe me. I will get it back one day, and you don't have to worry about it Make it up, just wait for me to come to you." Su Ze's indifferent expression showed no emotion, his voice was neither soft nor heavy, there was no warning or threat, it was just a light statement.

Su Muqiu lowered her eyes and smiled wryly, feeling angry and helpless towards this unkind brother in her heart.

And when Zhu Jingyan arrived, what he saw was this scene, Su Ze and Su Muqiu were standing next to each other, but they didn't even look at each other.silent.Not far away, Zhu Qingyuan broke off a branch of hibiscus from nowhere to play with, and from time to time he glanced at the two brothers and sisters who were as silent as death.

He Ling was the first to see Zhu Jingyan in that room, and gently pushed Su Muqiu without a trace, Su Muqiu looked up, under the bright yellow dragon robe, Zhu Jingyan looked at her with a faint smile, the sun seemed to be shining on him There was a layer of warm mist, and it made people's hearts revive like spring buds and slightly itchy, and like a breeze blowing on the face, Su Muqiu smiled back.Gentle as the wind, as warm as spring.

Su Muqiu stepped forward and walked to Zhu Jingyan's side, "Chen Yunu moved to Zhiyuxuan, and the concubines felt noisy. So when I went out for a walk, I didn't expect to meet the prince and Su Shilang."

Zhu Jingyan stopped with a slight smile, "I know." So she didn't have to rush to get rid of the relationship.

Su Muqiu's heartstrings were slightly relaxed, and he smiled slightly, "The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. The ministers and concubines will retire first."

Zhu Jingyan didn't respond immediately, but only pulled her in front of him, raised his hand to support the slightly slanted steps on her temples, lowered his head, and whispered in her ear, "Go there and wait for me at night. "

The breeze on the lips was slightly warm, making Su Muqiu numb for a while, but her face was a little blushing, and her drooping long eyelashes trembled slightly invisible. Zhu Jingyan also smiled when she saw this, while Su Muqiu bowed in embarrassment and left up.

After walking for a while, Su Muqiu calmed down the mood of being teased by Zhu Jingyan, and there was a slight sadness between Liu's brows. Zhu Jingyan was so kind to her, so good that it made her feel like a dream, so good that it made her uneasy. She even felt that before The days when the two of them only used each other made her more relaxed and natural.

He Ling heard Su Muqiu's slight sigh, and smiled narrowly, "What did the emperor say to the young master just now? This servant sees that the young master's whole expression is different."

Su Muqiu remembered what she said just now.There were slight ripples in the eyes, but it took only a moment to calm down, "It's nothing."

But even if Su Muqiu doesn't say anything, He Ling can guess a general idea, but Qingzhu is different. From the beginning of the conversation between Su Muqiu and Su Ze just now, she seems to be bitten by thousands of ants in her heart, and she finally waited until Su Muqiu left. Now, here I saw He Ling and Su Muqiu's hidden smiles again, this feeling of being regarded as an outsider made Qingzhu very uncomfortable, but there was no way to talk about it, it could only be that she frowned slightly and lowered her eyes in displeasure. .

At night, Su Muqiu and He Ling left Zhiyuxuan again, and Qingzhu was still kept in charge, but she didn't follow Su Muqiu's intention to stare closely at the person in the side room.Instead, he followed Su Muqiu out the door.

But just because she followed closely, Su Muqiu found out after a while, and Su Muqiu sent her back with a slightly displeased tone, and then took a detour to the winding path.The green bamboo in that room was reprimanded by Su Muqiu to go back to Zhiyuxuan, but on the way, she ran into a maidservant of Chen Yunu, but at that time, Qingzhu was in a bad mood, so she didn't care to pay attention to the flustered expression of the little maidservant, and instead The little palace maid thought she had been discovered, so she hurriedly returned to Zhiyuxuan to report to her.

That night, Su Muqiu learned of two things. One was that Su Ze agreed to serve as an examiner to select talents, and the other was that Zhu Qingyuan acquiesced in the fight back against Beishu, but he was skeptical about whether Beishu would definitely plunder.

So far, the first step of Zhu Jingyan's plan has been carried out smoothly, and Su Muqiu felt relieved after learning about it.And then, almost every few days, Su Muqiu would go out at night, and Qingzhu no longer followed in anger, and only strictly guarded the door of Zhiyuxuan, no one could come in or out at will.

However, half a month passed in such a peaceful manner. At that time, when Su Muqiu was struggling with the pile of books and words in the room, the palace servant Linghua hurried into the room with a flustered expression, "My lord, Yu Baolin has had a miscarriage."

With a shake of Su Muqiu's hand holding the pen, a long ink mark was left on the snow-white rice paper. After a moment of stupor, Su Muqiu said in confusion, "I haven't heard that she is pregnant, so why did she just have a miscarriage? "

"I heard that before March, this Yu Baolin saw blood after eating. At first I thought it was Yue Xin, but because of too much blood loss, Yu Baolin complained of severe abdominal pain. The imperial doctor said it was a miscarriage, but Yu Baolin didn't catch her breath, she actually passed out."

Su Muqiu's face was dark, and her fetal gas was not stable in the first three months. If she didn't pay attention, miscarriage would not be uncommon, but this was the first thing about children in the palace, and it just happened when Zhu Jingyan desperately needed peace and quiet. At that time, Su Muqiu frowned slightly, "Does the emperor know?"

"The Izumo Pavilion is the closest to the Chongde Hall, and the emperor has already arrived at the Izumo Pavilion." Linghua Ruo was a little anxious when she saw it, "Master, let's hurry over and have a look."

Su Muqiu felt a little uneasy, but immediately stepped out. As soon as she walked to the courtyard, she saw Chen Yunu and Yao Huan also walking out of the house. Very nervous, "Sister also heard?"

Su Muqiu inadvertently exchanged greetings with her and only responded lightly, and Chen Yunv also followed behind Su Muqiu, and hurried to the Izumo Pavilion.
