Mu Ling glared viciously at Mu Bingyue, the killing intent and hatred in her eyes obvious.
Thinking about it, she definitely wouldn't let Mu Bing Yue off so easily this time!
Mu Bing Yue did not say anything and just lowered her head, looking like she was about to follow her gaze. The surrounding people all thought that she was afraid.
"He's dead for sure, this Mu Bingyue is too unlucky .."
"That's right, Fourth Miss is the daughter-in-law that the empress has recognized. Since Mu Bingyue is cheating, the empress will definitely not let her off!"
Mu Bingyue listened to these voices and remembered every single word of these people.
Was she the candidate for the empress's daughter-in-law? Mu Kui Xu was a shrewd man. He wanted Mu Ling to join the princes' faction and marry the King of Qing Ling from the other daughters. This way, he would not offend anyone and would not make any mistakes!
The current situation took the form of the crown prince being of high birth and the queen's mother being of great influence. Within the imperial court, the crown prince's words and support were without a doubt.
However, the battle achievements of the king were very high. His talent in magic was the best in the past three hundred years. He had a very high reputation among the people on the border and among the commoners.
Thus, on the surface, the Crown Prince was the son of the empress, but in the open or in secret, many people had said that the king would become the first concubine in history to overthrow his son and become the emperor's concubine!
As for the Mu family, the martial general's family that was loyal to the Emperor, they were even more greedy for power now.
What a smart plan.
At the entrance of the pavilion, a pair of pearl shoes embroidered with brocade slowly walked in. Mu Bingyue restrained her thoughts and put on a terrified expression. She greeted everyone one by one and said, "Greetings, esteemed empress!"
There was no response. The pair of expensive shoes moved gracefully and sat down on an empty tea table in the pavilion. Eight palace maids entered with them, some of them placed cushions on the stone bench, some of them cleaned the table, some of them placed silk tablecloths on top, and some of them even released censers, round fans, and other personal belongings.
Looking at this scene, Mu Bingyue was a bit surprised. The empress had quite a bit of dignity and was so particular. She didn't know that she was doing this just to show off to all the girls here. Her daily life was truly luxurious.
"All of you, get up. This is outside the palace, so there is no need to be so polite." The empress raised her hand slightly, her voice carrying both dignity and respect.
Mu Bing Yue secretly cursed how great his actions were. It was only after a long time that she managed to wake everyone up, saying that there was no need to be polite. It was really funny.
Mu Bingyue lifted her head to glance at the Queen before lowering her head without saying a word.
The empress's appearance could not be considered beautiful, but her entire being was noble and graceful with an extraordinary bearing. It seemed that she was not a simple character, and it was unknown .. How was she going to vent her anger on her future daughter-in-law?
The Queen's phoenix eyes swept across the crowd and landed on Mu Ling's face. She then looked at Mu Ling's hands and suddenly thought of something. She covered her mouth and asked, "Ling Er, what's wrong?"
"Empress, Fourth Sister has been hurt by someone. You have to stand up for her!" Ninth Miss quickly stepped forward and said, her eyes constantly shifting towards Mu Bing Yue. Her actions made it obvious what she was doing.
"Who injured him? The election has not even begun, so how could someone have already made a move? " The empress gave a cold snort as she swept her eyes over the crowd once more.
"Reporting to the Empress, it's this person, Fourth Miss's sister. She's severely injured Fourth Miss!" Someone pointed at Mu Bingyue and said, "She is vicious and merciless. She was completely opportunistic in that match just now!"
