Mu Qingwan turned to look at him in a daze, her face turned red, "How can you ask such a shameful question...how can you ask..."

Her face was like a ripe peach filled with juice, so red and tender that it made people want to take a bite. Xiahou Lie's heart began to beat wildly, and the sound of his heartbeat echoed in his ears, so obvious that it made him even a little unbearable. The faint fragrance on her body came in a wisp, messing up his breathing.

But he was afraid that his urgency would hurt her, so he had to suppress it and try to divert his attention.

Alas, this little demon...

Xiahou Lie hugged her, wrapped her bodies tightly with his cloak, and said gently:

"How long has the wind blown here? Although the sun is coming out today and the weather is still very cold, it's better to be careful. Your body is just a little better, but you can't stand the cold anymore..."

Mu Qingwan touched her stomach and said, "I love him more than you. Besides, I am a doctor myself, so I know the right amount. After feeding the fish, I went back..."

"You have been feeding fish for too long every day. Look at how long we have been here. These koi are so fat that you are not very good..."

Before he finished speaking, a steamed bun was stuffed into his mouth. He couldn't help but laugh, swallowed it, crushed the remaining steamed buns in her hand and threw them into the lake. All the fish surrounded the floating bread crumbs, as if a red and charming flower was blooming.

Before she could speak, she was picked up by him. She exclaimed and subconsciously wrapped around his neck.

He used his light skills to fly slowly in the air. Mu Qingwan's whole body and head were stuffed into the cloak by him, warm and could not feel any chill. Her whole body seemed to be sitting in the clouds, light and fluttering.

The air was filled with the clear fragrance of plum blossoms, which made people intoxicated. She couldn't help but tighten her arms and hug him tightly, feeling his breathing and heartbeat.

After scattering in the air for a while, Xiahou Lie took her back to the house and forced her to drink a bowl of bird's nest to warm her stomach. Then he hugged her and lay down on the soft couch.

She didn't say anything, and snuggled in his arms gently and obediently. Such quiet company instantly relieved the depression in his heart a lot.

In fact, Mu Qingwan had long seen that he was in a bad mood. Although he always pretended to be relaxed in front of her, the Beiyan court is now in a strange situation. Although Showa is the emperor now, he is still the one who really has all the courage.

She raised her head sideways, gently covering both sides of his head with her hands, rubbing and pressing his sore temples. Her voice was sweet and soft, "Lie, you must be tired, are you?"

Since she escaped from the fire last time and returned to the capital in secludedly, she either ate or slept, but she hadn't taken a good rest. In addition, the Yun family is now active frequently, and Yunlan Mountain can take the Showa and replace it at any time. Now, in order to attract all the forces still lurking in the Yun family, he can only sneak into the palace and discuss with Showa a few days later. If it is not convenient for Leng Ji to send a letter back and forth, he dare not even use Fei Ge's letters for fear of something going wrong. It can be seen how dangerous and tense the situation has reached.

"It's okay, don't worry."

Mu Qingwan pouted slightly, and continued to press on her fingers with constant force, "You say so every time."

He smiled, stretched out his fingers to rub her cherry lips, "What's wrong? Is it awkward again?"

Her fingers slowly slid down, holding his handsome face, staring at his eyes. His eyes were the kind of transparent black, like pure black glass. With a slight movement, thousands of shiny lights swayed, making people dazzled, but today the pair of black eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, which looked a little dim.

She stared blankly for a long time, sighed softly, and her arms around his neck so that her body could penetrate into his arms and get close to him.

"Lie, you are unhappy and tired, aren't you? I know you don't want me to worry, but... If you don't say it to me, who else can you tell me? I'm not as fragile as you think. I can share the burden with you. Although I'm pregnant now, he's very well-behaved and didn't make me happy. We are all very good, only you are bad, I feel so distressed after seeing it. What happened? Tell me if it's okay?"

"Baby is so good! But if I don't even have this adjustment ability, I'm not worthy of being an emperor once..."

She pressed his shoulder and let him lie down, and continued to rub his neck. After a slight soreness, she felt unspeakable comfort. Xiahou Lie narrowed his eyes slightly and enjoyed her tenderness. He heard her speak again, "Lie... Is it a person who needs pain, but it's not the same for a big man... Don't hold on to everything by yourself, okay?"

He smiled slightly, rubbed her long silky hair, slowly closed his eyes, and after a while, he said softly:

"Now Yun Lanshan and Yun Chuyi often meet secretly in the palace in private, and the two... You know, although Showa knows about them, they used to be invisible, but now... he became the emperor and lives in the palace. Now Yun Chuyi is in charge of the affairs of the mother and son. Every day, they look up and see each other. Even if Showa wants to turn a blind eye, it won't work... The reason why Showa urges me to enter the palace so anxiously today is to discuss this matter..."

Mu Qingwan frowned, "It's really hard for him... What is he going to do?"

Xiahou Lie rubbed the wrinkles between her eyebrows, "Now Yun Lanshan is moving frequently, and Yun Chuyi is ambitious. I am afraid that it will be a big problem sooner or later, so Showa has made up his mind to expose their ugly behavior in front of the emperor's grandmother and the clans, so that they will never turn over..."

"What?" Her kneading action stopped suddenly, looking at Xiahou Lie dumbfoundedly, but he had closed his eyes, with a hint of pain on his face, "No matter how weak the relationship between mother and son is, Yun Chuyi is still his biological mother after all. He can make such a choice. It can be seen that after a painful struggle, you didn't see the expression on his face when he told me about this plan... Alas..."

She was silent, and after a long time she was left with only a sigh.

He hugged her tightly, "Wan, in order to make the plan go smoothly, I have to go back to the palace tomorrow. Guess what expression will Yun Chu say when she saw her, who had long thought she had been buried in the fire?"

Mu Qingwan was surprised, "You mean..."

"That's right, the next day is the birthday of the emperor's grandmother. Yun Lanshan will also enter the palace to celebrate her birthday. I will deliberately appear in front of Yun Chuyi and cause a huge impact on her. Only in this way can she be cunning and cautious and go to Yun Lanshan to discuss countermeasures, and Showa's plan can be implemented at that time..."

At this point, Mu Qingwan had already understood his plan with Showa. "You mean Showa was going to take advantage of grandma's birthday that day to let Yun Chuyi and Yun Lanshan have their relationship exposed?"

Xiahou Lie nodded, his eyes darkened.

The good show is about to take place.

On the day of Su Hanzhi's birthday, Xiahou Lie entered the palace early. At this time, the entire palace was already decorated with bright lights, celebrating the Queen Mother's 70s.

Royal palace banquets are usually set at night, so at dusk, clans, nobles, royal relatives and nobles gather together in the gorgeous and grand Tianhe Hall.

Xiahou Lie looked out through the transparent curtain and smiled leisurely, "It seems that my mother is waiting for you and I to invite you before attending."

Showa's smile was extremely cold, "Since that's the case, let's go and pick her up."

The two of them walked towards Cining Hall while talking. All the palace maids and eunuchs in the hall seemed to have seen a ghost when they saw Xiahou Lie, and they were so panicked that they forgot to report it.

So they heard Yun Chuyi’s complaint from afar:

"I also want the Ai family to celebrate her birthday. The old woman should have died early. It was really cheap for Jiuxin Haitang to poison her to death. I really regret not giving her a bottle of crane red... "

"Aunt, stop talking, be careful of the ears in the wall..."

Yunluo said as she subconsciously looked around. When she saw Xiahou Lie and Showa who were slowly walking in from the door, she was so panicked that the golden hairpin that she was about to wear for Yun Chuyi fell to the ground and fell into two pieces.

"Emperor...Emperor..." Her face turned pale and red, and millions of emotions filled her heart. I don't know if it was ecstasy, fear or shock...

Yun Chuyi heard the crisp sound of the golden hairpin falling to the ground, and immediately turned around. When he saw that his beloved hairpin was broken into two pieces, his face couldn't help but change, and he shouted with a slight angrily:

"Luo'er, why can't you even hold a hairpin..."

Speaking of this, she suddenly saw Yunluo looking straight in a certain direction, her whole body stiffened.

She couldn't see the door directly from where she was sitting, so she didn't notice the arrival of Xiahou Lie and Showa. She called Yunluo again, and saw that she was still looking at that direction dumbly, and she felt even more angry. She stood up and walked to the place where Yunluo stood and said angrily:

"Luoer, what are you looking at..."

Before she could express the word "南", she had already seen the two people who made Yunluo lose their composure.

When she saw Xiahou Lie's face, her whole body began to tremble. However, after all, she was an old fox who was used to the wind and rain. She quickly calmed down, but her face was still pale. She pointed at Xiahou Lie and said sternly:

"Who is so bold that he dares to pretend to be the Emperor?"

Xiahou Lie's lips curled and said sarcastically: "My mother is really forgetful. It's been a long time since I saw the son minister, but I don't even recognize him. This is really hurting the son minister's heart..."

He spoke "son" at once, and the irony in it was very strong.

Showa looked at the woman in front of him like a broken ice. It was this woman who gave him life, but she made him hate him to the core. Such a contradictory relationship was about to drive him crazy.
