When they arrived outside the royal study, Eunuch Zhang asked Mu Qingyi to wait at the door while he went in to inform her.
Not long after, Eunuch Zhang came out again and said to Mu Qingyi,""Miss Mu, go in. Remember to behave yourself when you meet the emperor.”
"Thank you for your reminder, Eunuch Zhang." Mu Qingyi said, then turned around and walked into the royal study.
At this moment, in the royal study, Emperor Nangong Qi was busy reading memorials. It was as if he did not notice Mu Qingyi's arrival.
Mu Qingyi walked to the dragon table and bowed respectfully.""I bow before my emperor.”
However, Nangong Qi still acted as if he did not hear anything and continued to do what he was doing. Mu Qingyi could only maintain a stiff posture on the spot.
No matter how slow Mu Qingyi was, she knew that the Emperor was deliberately making things difficult for her. Although she did not know why, Mu Qingyi still did not move. After all, this was not difficult for her. It was much more difficult to stabilize her foundation in the Horse Stance.
At this moment, Nangong Ling, who had heard the news, rushed out of Pian Ruo Palace to the royal study, but was stopped by Eunuch Zhang.
"Eunuch Zhang, do you know why Imperial Father is looking for Miss Mu?”Knowing that this was not the time to barge in, Nangong Ling suppressed the anxiety in his heart and asked Eunuch Zhang who was guarding the door.
At this moment, Nangong Ling's concern for Mu Qingyi was completely that of a friend. He really did not understand why his father would suddenly call Mu Qingyi over. After all, he did not tell his father everything about Mu Qingyi treating his fifth brother.
"Tenth Highness, this servant does not dare to speculate on the emperor's will.”Eunuch Zhang lowered his head.
Seeing this, Nangong Ling could not say anything else and could only wait at the door.
The two people in the royal study heard the commotion outside the door. At this moment, Nangong Qi put down the brush in his hand and looked up at Mu Qingyi. "There's no need to be so polite, get up."”
Mu Qingyi straightened her back when she heard this. However, unlike ordinary people, she did not bow to the Emperor. Instead, she raised her head and looked at Nangong Qi, who was sitting behind the dragon table.
Seeing this, Nangong Qi could not help but admire Mu Qingyi in his heart. However, his expression remained calm and dignified.
"I heard that you are the disciple of a famous Jianghu geezer?”Nangong Qi asked tentatively.
When Mu Qingyi heard this, there was no surprise in her eyes. She just lowered her head and said,""The strange old man is indeed the master of this woman.”
When Nangong Qi saw Mu Qingyi admit it, the sharpness in his eyes dissipated a little, and his face softened a lot. He then asked,""Since you are the eccentric old man's disciple, your medical skills must be very good. Zhen asks you, can Mo 'er's idiocy be cured?”
Even though Nangong Mo had been a pain in Nangong Qi's heart for so many years, and even though Nangong Qi had actually lost all hope for Nangong Mo over the years, he could not help but have many expectations after confirming that the woman in front of him was the new generation of divine doctors.
Hearing this, Mu Qingyi did not answer immediately. She only thought for a moment and said ambiguously,""There will be a day when a disease can be cured.”
However, Nangong Qi obviously did not like Mu Qingyi's ambiguous words, which made him frown. However, when he thought about the purpose of calling Mu Qingyi over today, Nangong Qi suppressed the unhappiness in his heart and said,"
"That day in the imperial garden, Zhen saw that you were very protective of Mo 'er. What does Miss Mu think of Mo' er?”
Mu Qingyi could not help but feel a little surprised when she heard this. That day, she knew that someone was watching not far away, but she did not know that the person was actually the Emperor.
However, the Emperor asked her what she thought of Nangong Mo. What did he mean? An idea flashed through Mu Qingyi's mind. Because it was too fast, Mu Qingyi did not catch it.
"King Yu is a very good person." Mu Qingyi replied. Before she understood the Emperor's intentions, it was better to speak less.
"Since Mo 'er is a very good person, let me ask you, are you willing to marry Mo' er?”Nangong Qi narrowed his eyes as he looked at Mu Qingyi and asked. He exuded the majesty of an emperor.
No matter how Mu Qingyi thought about it, she never thought that this was Nangong Qi's real purpose for letting her into the palace. She was shocked, and her expression could not help but change. She frowned slightly.
Mu Qingyi had never thought of getting married. Now that the Emperor had asked her this question, she instinctively felt a little rejected. Although she did not reject Nangong Mo as a person, there was an indescribable strangeness in her heart.
Nangong Qi had been paying attention to Mu Qingyi's expression. Naturally, he saw Mu Qingyi's frown. This made Nangong Qi's heart sink.
"Zhen knows that Mo 'er is different from ordinary people and it is normal for Miss Mu to dislike Mo' er, but"
"No, I can't! I don't despise Nangong Mo." When Mu Qingyi heard Nangong Qi say the word " disdain ", she subconsciously frowned and raised her head to refute him. When she saw the shock on Nangong Qi's face, she realized what she had said. She could not help but lower her head in frustration.
Nangong Qi looked at Mu Qingyi for a long time. The shock in his eyes did not disappear for a long time. His originally angry emotions suddenly became clear.
"Miss Mu, you mean…"
At this moment, Nangong Ling was pacing back and forth outside the royal study. He was extremely anxious because he suddenly remembered that his father had sent someone to investigate Mu Qingyi's background in the royal garden that night. Could it be related to Mu Qingyi's background?
Just as he was thinking about this, the door of the royal study opened. Nangong Ling quickly turned around and saw Mu Qingyi walking out of the royal study.
"Miss Mu, are you alright?" Nangong Ling hurriedly went up to him and asked, his face full of concern.
Mu Qingyi only shook her head when she heard this. She did not say anything and walked forward. She looked a little distracted.
Nangong Ling looked at Mu Qingyi and could not help but frown. He looked in the direction of the royal study and then at Mu Qingyi. In the end, he still walked towards her.
"Miss Mu, let me send you out of the palace.”Nangong Ling said. He was really worried about Mu Qingyi's condition.
However, Mu Qingyi did not refuse or agree. She just walked forward as if she did not hear Nangong Ling's words and was lost in her own thoughts.
Nangong Ling did not know what had happened in the royal study, but looking at Mu Qingyi's appearance, it was obvious that something was wrong. Even if he wanted to ask, Nangong Ling knew that Mu Qingyi might not answer, so he could only give up.
Even when they were about to reach the palace gate, the person who came did not say a word. One was immersed in his own world, and the other was silently following by the side.
When they reached the palace gate, Mu Qingyi looked at Nangong Ling as if she had collected her thoughts and said,""Thank you for sending me off, Tenth Prince."
Nangong Ling wanted to say that there was no need to be so polite between us, but he felt that it was a little rude, so he swallowed his words. He looked at Mu Qingyi with a worried expression and said,""Is there really nothing wrong with Imperial Father looking for you?"
Mu Qingyi smiled and said,""Don't worry, I'll be fine."
"Mm, that's good. If there's anything on Fifth Brother's side, get someone to inform me.”Nangong Ling could not say anything else and could only say this.
Mu Qingyi nodded and walked out of the palace.
Looking at Mu Qingyi's back, Nangong Ling could not help but frown. What did Father say to her?# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:082820187:39PM
