Chapter 721
Thinking of this, the emperor's face became even uglier. Just as he was about to say something, he tripped suddenly, his body swayed, and he almost fell down.

"Your majesty, are you alright?" Mu Qingwan asked out loud.

The emperor waved his hand, "I'm fine." He said, stabilized his body, and took a few steps forward.

Mu Qingwan followed behind without saying a word, the two of them were silent, suddenly there was a sound of footsteps and a woman's laughter, it was Lou Qingwu Zhemei who had returned.

She held a branch of white plum in her hand, against which her face looked like a peach blossom, she looked like a fairy walking out of the snow, extraordinarily beautiful and moving.

"Your Majesty, the plum blossoms in this plum garden are really beautiful. If you fold a branch and put it in the house, it will definitely have a pleasant fragrance." Lou Qingwu said with a smile.

The emperor stopped his thoughts and nodded: "The white plums in this plum garden have always been loved by concubines in the harem. Every winter, there are many concubines who come here to enjoy the plum blossoms." Then, the emperor thought of something, and his eyes flickered slightly .

Lou Qingwu glanced at Mu Qingwan and gave Mu Qingwan a look. Before she could speak, she saw Eunuch Fu coming from behind with a cloak in his hand. After putting it on the emperor, he respectfully said: "Your Majesty, it's getting late. Your Majesty's dragon body has just recovered, so it's better not to stand outside for a long time."

A bit of fatigue flashed across the emperor's brows and eyes, and he said, "Let's drive back to the palace."

"Yes."

The emperor left the plum garden all the way and walked to the entrance of the plum garden. There was already a dragon chariot waiting there. Eunuch Fu served the emperor as soon as he got on the dragon chariot. Qing Wu bowed and saluted: "Miss Lou Er, you went to pick plums just now, and dropped a handkerchief." The maid said, and handed over a handkerchief.

Seeing this, a trace of surprise flashed across Lou Qingwu's face, and she said, "Mama, you must admit your mistake, this is not my handkerchief."

"But this..." The maid wanted to say something, but the voice had already reached the emperor, the veil on the dragon chariot was lifted, the emperor looked over here, and asked aloud: "What's going on?"

"Going back to the emperor, this nanny picked up a handkerchief and thought it belonged to the court lady, but the court lady didn't have such a handkerchief." Lou Qingwu said.

The emperor raised his eyebrows, and looked at the square handkerchief in Nanny's hand. On one corner of the handkerchief, the character 'Gong' was embroidered. However, this font was embroidered into a flower-shaped character. If you don't look carefully, you can't recognize it at a glance. Recognize that this is the word 'Gong'.

But the emperor recognized that Concubine Gong had been by the emperor's side for so many years, how could the emperor have never seen the handkerchief she used.

Eunuch Fu, who was beside the emperor, had seen it before, so he said with a smile: "This handkerchief is indeed not Miss Lou Er, but it looks like the imperial concubine's."

"Go and get it," said the emperor.

"Yes." Eunuch Fu replied, stepped forward to take the handkerchief, and presented it to the emperor.

The emperor shook it open and saw that the handkerchief was exquisitely made, with two lines of poems embroidered on it.

Seeing each other is like not seeing each other, and being sentient still seems ruthless.

The emperor is also very familiar with the font of this poem, it is Gong Guifei's font.

Looking at these two lines of poems, the emperor's eyes became darker, and he looked at the court lady: "Did you pick up this handkerchief in the plum garden?"

The palace maid still lowered her head: "Yes, the servant girl just went to cut the plums, and found this square handkerchief in the snow on the ground. I happened to see Miss Lou Er coming, so I wondered if it was Miss Lou Er's handkerchief."

"You go back."

"Yes, I will take my leave." After finishing speaking, the maid took a few steps back and left.

The emperor looked at the handkerchief in his hand, faintly, with a bit of anger on his face.

"Your Majesty, yesterday the imperial concubine said that she came to enjoy plum blossoms in the plum garden. She must have lost it. Do you want to ask the imperial concubine if she lost the square handkerchief?" Eunuch Fu asked carefully, looking at the emperor's face. .

"Hmph." The emperor snorted coldly: "There's no need to ask."

Eunuch Fu immediately shut up when he heard the words, the emperor pinched the handkerchief in his hand, his face became a little dark.

Lou Qingwu looked away from the side, and a faint smile flashed across her mouth.

"Your Majesty, do you want to go back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation?" After a while, Eunuch Fu asked.

The emperor got off the dragon chariot: "No need, take the dragon chariot back and let the two of them accompany me to the imperial garden."

Hearing this, Eunuch Fu's eyes flashed strangely. In this winter, the plum garden is the one that blooms. The imperial garden is bare. What's there to visit?
It's just that the emperor said so, so he naturally didn't dare to say more, so he respectfully replied: "Yes."

Mu Qingwan and Lou Qingwu followed naturally, this matter is not over yet, the two of them cannot leave for the time being.

The eunuchs carried the dragon chariot and walked towards the Hall of Mental Cultivation. Mu Qingwan and Lou Qingwu accompanied the emperor to walk towards the imperial garden. The imperial garden in this season is indeed bare, except for some evergreens. The green plants and other colorful summer scenery are long gone, so there is really nothing to appreciate.

Just walking around the imperial garden for a while, the emperor felt a little unsteady. Judging from the situation, he was tired, and his physical condition was like that of an old man who was dying. After walking for a while, he Some can't take it anymore.

"Your majesty, I will help you to sit in the flower pavilion." Eunuch Fu said.

"Ah."

Eunuch Fu helped the emperor into the flower pavilion, where the court ladies had already put down all the veils to avoid the cold, and thick cushions had been placed on the stone benches.

The emperor sat down, looked at Mu Qingwan and Lou Qingwu who stood cautiously aside, and said, "You two don't need to stand here, go and stroll in the garden."

"Yes." The two of them agreed, and then they came out of the flower pavilion and walked around idly.

After leaving the flower pavilion for a short distance, Mu Qingwan lowered her voice and asked, "Have you sent someone to pass the news to Concubine Gong?"

"Don't worry, Auntie has already made arrangements. I think Concubine Gong Gui is already on her way here." As she spoke, a sneer flashed in Lou Qingwu's eyes. When they came out of Concubine Lou Xian's palace, There was a palace lady following her all the time. When she was in the plum garden just now, the maid heard that they had picked up Concubine Gong's handkerchief, so she hurried back to report the letter. Concubine Gong must have received the news by now.

The two of them were thinking, and from a distance, they saw Concubine Gong walking towards here with a few maidservants.

When she got closer and saw Mu Qingwan, Concubine Gong's eyes flashed coldness. There was still a life between her and Mu Qingwan. She hadn't forgotten that if it wasn't for this Mu Qingwan, the child in her stomach It won't be so wronged.

Now, just when she was about to control the entire harem in her own hands, this Mu Qingwan jumped out again to disrupt her arrangement, how could this be possible!
