The First Tyrant of Daxia

Chapter 429 Aunt Mu Ci's Heart

After a while, Mu was invited into the imperial study.

Qin Yun took good care of him, asked someone to give him a seat and brought him hot soup.

I'm afraid even if you're a prime minister, you may not be treated like this every day.

Mu Ci seemed a little flattered and embarrassed, with worry on his elegant and simple face. He mustered up the courage to ask, "Your Majesty, may I ask about Mu Le's child...?"

Qin Yun smiled and said, "Don't worry."

"Mu Le is safe, and he has done a great service to me."

Mu Ci's face lit up with joy, her long eyelashes fluttered, showing her extremely feminine beauty.

"really?"

"What merit did he make?"

Qin Yun smiled, as expected, all parents in the world are caring.

"He led his army deep behind enemy lines and executed our tactics perfectly, staging a blitzkrieg that ultimately crushed the enemy, annihilated tens of thousands of them, and captured the Xiliang fortress, Pancheng!"

Upon hearing this, Mu Ci's face turned red, and her hands clenched tightly, she was very excited.

He immediately knelt down before Qin Yun: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, thank you very much!"

"Without you, there would be no Ale today..."

As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes and she almost cried.

Qin Yun smiled bitterly, and quickly stepped forward to help her up, saying: "Don't cry, if you go out, others who don't know will think that I bullied you."

Mu Ci's earlobes turned slightly red. She glanced at him evasively, then stepped back quietly.

"Yes, sir, I am very happy."

Qin Yun grinned: "Just rest assured."

"Ale is my adopted son. I will not harm him until the war situation is a little more stable."

"I will let him take turns to rest and let him come back to see his new wife and you."

Mu Ci's heart warmed up, and her beautiful eyes couldn't help but look at Qin Yun again. She actually felt at ease.

He nodded heavily: "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty."

Qin Yun also nodded, but didn't know what to say.

He couldn't help but look at Mu Ci a few more times. She was about the same age as Dou Ji, and both of them were the type of women who became more attractive as they got older.

Wandering between young girl and mature woman, it is true that time can never defeat beauty.

Just like that, a short while passed.

The atmosphere was awkward.

Mu Ci took the initiative to ask, "Your Majesty, may I ask where Empress Murong has been?"

Qin Yun was stunned, a trace of melancholy flashed in his eyes. He also missed Murong Shunhua.

Then he forced a smile and said, "Why are you asking this?"

Mu Ci explained, "It was Mu Xin. She hadn't seen Lady Murong for a long time and said she missed her master."

"so……"

"I dare to ask your majesty."

Seeing her cautious question, Qin Yun couldn't help but laugh.

This woman is simple at heart. Even though her son is the emperor's adopted son and a powerful general, she does not show any arrogance or pamper herself.

He always speaks cautiously, which makes people feel distressed.

"She has indeed gone far away. I cannot say for sure when she will come back."

"Reassure Mu Xin and tell her that her master is out on business and is safe."

Mu Ci nodded.

She glanced around with her big eyes. It was empty and there was no one around.

And it was dark.

It wouldn't be appropriate to stay any longer, so she opened her red lips and prepared to leave.

But Qin Yun got there before her.

"I have been dealing with government affairs all day. I am very tired and hungry. It is a good thing that you are here. Come and have dinner with me."

Mu Ci was stunned for a moment, and recalled the night of A Le's wedding when she had opened her heart to Qin Yun, but he did not accept her dedication.

But today I have to keep dinner for myself.

Is it for Mu Le's sake, or is it for... that?

Thinking of this, her cheeks turned red, and she felt a little nervous and ashamed.

She fiddled with her hands for a while.

She said embarrassedly, "Okay, fine. Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward."

She bowed and saluted.

The bluish-white long skirt is not beautiful and eye-catching, and the clothing is not even exquisite, but the lines of the hips it outlines are extremely proud.

Qin Yun walked in front, very decisively.

He ordered, "Prepare the banquet immediately."

Mu Ci took lotus steps and hurried to catch up.

Soon after, dinner was served in the Weiyang Palace.

The magnificent palace that looked like a fairyland made Mu Ci stunned. Her red lips opened slightly in shock.

The imperial study is grand and spacious enough.

But this Weiyang Palace, with its colorful lights and majestic appearance, is like a palace in the immortal world!

It took her a long time to come back to her senses. She didn't even know where to put her feet, for fear of dirtying the ground.

Qin Yun had no choice but to pull her in with his hands.

Mu Ci's heart beat faster and faster, but she didn't dare to struggle and let him do whatever he wanted.

Soon, the palace maids brought up more than a hundred dishes, which were delicious and all made of delicacies.

Of course Qin Yun doesn't like waste, so the portions of the dishes are very small.

"Eat, why are you standing there?"

"Is it because the cooking in the imperial kitchen is not to your liking?" Qin Yun asked.

Mu Ci smiled bitterly, which was very beautiful.

"Your Majesty, that's not the case. It's just that I'm used to being in the market, and it's a sudden pleasure to eat such delicious food, and to eat with you."

"Somewhat terrified..."

Qin Yun smiled and said, "It's okay, just eat it a few more times and it will be fine."

"From now on, you can come to the palace whenever you want and eat whatever you want. I will allow it."

Hearing this, Mu Ci almost dropped his chopsticks and his heart beat very fast.

Why didn't he stay overnight that day, but why did he care so much about me?

As a mature woman, she didn't think this was just because of Mu Le.

"Thank you very much, Your Majesty."

She could only evasively respond like this, and ate this delicious meal with a very nervous heart.

But after the meal, she was very nervous, afraid that something might go wrong, so she ate only a little full and then stopped eating.

Finally, to express gratitude.

She also offered a glass of wine.

It was this glass of wine that made her face flush, and her charming face looked even more beautiful and charming.

From simple to beautiful!

The night is blurry.

Qin Yun personally escorted her out of the palace.

Mu Ci, who had drunk a little wine, was obviously braver than when he was sober.

She asked inexplicably, "Your Majesty, do you think I am a bad woman?"

Qin Yun walked in front with his hands behind his back and looked back, "Bad woman, why do you say that?"

She bit her red lips, her demeanor particularly charming.

She took a deep breath and said, "Because I am a single woman, I actually said such words to you that night, and you didn't know the etiquette to stay in the palace for dinner today."

Qin Yun frowned: "What's the matter? Aren't you worried about Ah Le?"

Mu Ci raised his head and glanced at him. Her beautiful eyes had a beauty accumulating over the years, and seemed to carry a hint of melancholy.

It was brought up by that glass of wine.

She wanted to say, there are actually many ways for me to find out about Ah Le, why should I go to the palace in person?

But this sentence was a bit shameless, so she couldn't say it in the end.

Feeling the cool breeze, she reached out to tidy up her hair, revealing her fair face.

Then she lowered her head and said sincerely, "Your Majesty, no matter how you look at me, I am not a young girl, but I am also a woman who knows propriety, righteousness, and shame."

"For all these years, I have never been alone with any man except you."

Qin Yun reacted and thought, when Mu Ci said these words, could it be that... her heart was touched?
