Mu Nanxi finished her lunch without any taste, and turned away Xiaoqing and others with a sigh. She said she was a little tired and wanted to take a rest.

As a result, she slept until nightfall. When the girl opened her eyes, the bedroom was dark with no light at all.

Suddenly, the inexplicable darkness made Mu Nanxi feel lonely in her heart. She subconsciously said, "Xiao Qing..."

Soon, Xiao Qing walked in and quickly lit the lights in the dormitory.

"Mother, are you awake? Are you hungry? Do you need to pass on food?"

Xiao Qing said while helping to lift the bed curtains. Mu Nanxi was still a little disappointed, so she subconsciously said, "Has the Emperor been here?"

Unexpectedly, Xiaoqing's movements were halted by one sentence, and an unnatural look flashed across his face.

Mu Nanxi kept staring at Xiaoqing. Seeing her like this, an answer came out of her heart.

"Where is the Emperor..."

The voice was very soft, Xiaoqing hesitated again and again, and finally spoke, "My queen... the father-in-law beside the emperor is coming..."

"What did you say?"

"My father-in-law said that the emperor will not come tonight."

When Mu Nanxi heard that Ye Junhan was not coming, she felt a flash of disappointment in her heart, but her face still pretended to be calm.

"The emperor has many things to do, so he can't come every day. Let's ask the imperial kitchen to make a tonic soup and send it to the imperial study later."

Mu Nanxi got out of bed and walked to the clothes rack to get dressed. Xiao Qing's voice sounded behind her, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty... you are currently in Hehuan Palace..."

With her fingers half hanging above the clothes hanger, for a long time, Mu Nanxi spoke again, her tone was as calm as words.

"Oh. Then make two copies and send them to Hehuan Palace together."

"……Yes."

Xiao Qing was about to go down and give instructions to the imperial kitchen when suddenly Mu Nanxi spoke again, "Oh, by the way, bring back a pot of wine for me. I'm a little greedy."

Xiao Qing looked back at Mu Nanxi in shock, but after seeing the girl's firm and serious eyes, she responded softly and left.

Seeing Xiao Qing leave, Mu Nanxi let out a breath of turbid air, and the tightness in her chest was relieved a lot.

The exquisite meal was served quickly. Mu Nanxi sat at the table and started eating. Xiao Qing looked at her master with a worried look.

"Mother... are you okay?"

Mu Nanxi enjoyed the food to her heart's content without even raising her head, "It's okay. Do you think something's wrong with me, your master?"

After filling his stomach, Mu Nanxi began to pour wine for herself. When she was about to drink, Xiao Qing stopped her.

"Mother, you are a light drinker, or..."

"Hey, it's rare that I don't have to accompany the Holy Master. It doesn't matter if I'm drunk."

After saying that, Mu Nanxi gently pulled away Xiaoqing's hand and drank all the liquid in the wine glass.

The familiar spicy taste went down her throat, but this time, Mu Nanxi was not choked.

She smacked her lips a few times, with a look of disgust on her face, "No matter how many times I drink it, this wine is really terrible."

She said it tasted bad, but the movements in Mu Nanxi's hands did not stop. She filled herself up one cup after another, and drank up one cup after another.

It's like drinking wine as if it were water.

Seeing her like this, Xiaoqing became very anxious. She tried to stop her several times but was rejected by Mu Nanxi.

When she was helpless, Xiaoqing thought of Ye Junhan, so she gritted her teeth, picked up her skirt and ran towards the Hehuan Palace.

Hehuan Palace.

Ye Junhan put one hand behind his back and stood quietly by the window. The man's face was expressionless and his emotions could not be clearly seen.

Yu Menghuan had already returned from bathing with the help of the palace maid. Looking at the tall man standing beside the bed, her heart beat a little fast unconsciously.

"Your Majesty, it's late at night, why don't you go to bed early."

Ye Junhan didn't respond, but still stood motionless by the window. Yu Menghuan glanced at the rest of the people in the hall.

The palace maids and eunuchs understood and quietly retreated. Yu Menghuan limped forward and wanted to hug the man's waist from behind.

But before his hand touched the hem of the man's clothes, Ye Junhan dodged away. Yu Menghuan was stunned, and a look of disappointment flashed across his face.

"...Does the Emperor hate my concubines so much? Does it mean that as long as it's not Sister Mu, the Emperor doesn't want anyone..."

Hearing Yu Menghuan mention Mu Nanxi, Ye Junhan's expression finally changed. He turned around and looked at Yu Menghuan displeased.

"You know why I married you."

When Yu Menghuan heard this, she smiled bitterly, her raised face full of sadness.

"Yes, I have always known it, but... no matter whether the Emperor wants it or not, Meng Huan is already the Emperor's concubine... You can't..."

"No, I will stay overnight tonight just for the sake of Princess Zhennan."

Yu Menghuan's little face became paler. At this moment, Xiao Qing's voice suddenly came to mind outside the bedroom.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! Please, Your Majesty, go and see my mother-in-law!"

"Bold! The Emperor and Concubine Meng have already rested. How can we allow you to be so arrogant here? Come on, someone, pull her down. Don't disturb her..."

Before Liu Er finished speaking, he was interrupted by the sound of the door opening behind him. Ye Junhan walked out in a hurry. When he saw Xiao Qing, his sword eyebrows were slightly frowned.

Without asking about Mu Nanxi's situation, the man walked straight towards Hanxi Palace.

Behind her, Yu Menghuan wanted to stay, but looking at the man's decisive back, she suddenly couldn't say a word.

The woman staggered, and Liu Er caught her in time, "Your Majesty..."

"Liu'er... you said... why the emperor can't see me... obviously... I am his childhood sweetheart..."

Liu'er felt extremely uncomfortable looking at Yu Menghuan like this, "My Lady, don't be sad. The Emperor was just temporarily fascinated by Mu Nanxi. He must be able to see how good you are."

As he said this, a flash of hatred quickly flashed in Liu'er's eyes, but Yu Menghuan was too deep in her own emotions to notice it.

Let's talk about Ye Junhan. He hurried to Hanxi Palace. As soon as he opened the door of the dormitory, a body smelling of wine rushed into his arms.

The man subconsciously put his arms around the visitor's waist, lowered his head, and looked into Mu Nanxi's drunken and beautiful eyes.

"Xi'er..."

"Huh? Am I dazzled? Why do you look so similar to my Jun Han?"

Ye Junhan was a little disturbed by Mu Nanxi's words "mine". The man rolled his Adam's apple unconsciously and said in a hoarse voice, "What did you say?"

Mu Nanxi was already drunk, her head was dizzy, and she couldn't think clearly at all. What she was saying was fine, but suddenly she started crying again.

"You can't be my Jun Han. My Jun Han is currently with another woman, maybe... sleeping in the same bed! Scumbag!"

Ye Junhan frowned, not understanding what "scumbag" meant, but he smelled a strong sense of jealousy from Mu Nanxi's words.

The man's eyebrows instantly became gentle, "Xi'er, tell me, you don't want to push me to another woman, right?"

Mu Nanxi tried hard to see the face of the man in front of her clearly, but she was so dizzy that she couldn't focus at all.

"Don't shake, I'm so dizzy...Yes, I don't want to, I don't want to let Jun Han out, but...I can't help it..."

"Why do you do this if you don't want to?"

"Because...because..."

Mu Nanxi didn't say anything else, but Ye Junhan felt a little sour in his heart when he looked at such a person.

"I won't do anything Xi'er doesn't want to do. I will always be yours, okay?"

Mu Nanxi's mind was spinning slowly, but she still nodded vigorously, "Okay, you are mine and you will always be mine..."
