Chapter 1315 Murong sisters!

At night, Murong Xinyun, who was assigned to a small courtyard on the south side of the imperial palace, looked at the bright moon outside the window with a hint of melancholy in her eyes.

Although she and he were in love, the Murong family had very strict discipline after all. So even though the two young people were very excited, they were still very shy. They usually expressed their love to each other through polite poems, and at most they just held hands. So Murong Xinyun passed the physical examination smoothly and was assigned to this small courtyard.

Although she told An Miaoyi during the day that she had no regrets in her life, she was only an eighteen-year-old girl after all. She had always grown up under the care of her family and had never left her family. But at this moment in this unfamiliar environment, Murong Xinyun couldn't help feeling homesick.

Murong Xinyun knew that at this time the news that she had been selected to enter the palace had already spread back home. Her father and brother should be celebrating now after getting what they wished for. Thinking of this, Murong Xinyun's eyes became complicated.

Living in a prominent family like the Murong family, although Murong Xinyun is loved by her family, she is also very precocious. She knew very early that her marriage would not be decided by herself, and she might marry a man she doesn't know but who is of equal social status to her.

At that time, Murong Xinyun didn't realize what a bad thing this was, but when she and he fell in love, she began to gradually become painful. However, the huge gap in their identities did not prevent them from falling in love until the day the truth was revealed!
Thinking back to what happened that day, his furious father, his begging mother, his brother holding a sword, and him being tied up, Murong Xinyun's eyes couldn't help but become moist.

At this point, Murong Xinyun didn’t dare to ask for anything more. She only hoped that her father and brother would keep their promise and let him go. In this way, she would have no regrets...
Thinking of this, Murong Xinyun planned to write a letter to his father to urge him to keep his promise, but at this moment a nanny came over and reported to Murong Xinyun:

"Miss Xinyun, Miss Ying'er from Imperial Concubine Murong's side is here! She said Imperial Concubine Murong wants you to come over for a chat!"

When Murong Xinyun heard that it was her cousin Murong Qingwu who sent someone, she seemed a little embarrassed. She knew that her cousin did not want her to enter the palace and had sent someone with a message asking her not to participate in the selection.

As for why she didn't want to enter the palace, Murong Qingwu didn't say it, but according to her father and brother, Murong Qingwu didn't let her enter the palace because she was worried that she would snatch her man and compete for her favor. For this reason, her father and brother also reminded them to be careful with her and not to trust her completely just because she was their sister!

Murong Xinyun still felt that there was some truth in her father and brother's opinions. After all, jealousy among female relatives was not uncommon among the aristocratic families.

However, Murong Xinyun still didn't want to believe that Sister Qingwu, who had been so kind to her back then, would plot against her and harm her!

Although Murong Xinyun knew she couldn't avoid this moment the moment she decided to enter the palace, this moment still came much sooner than she had imagined. It was only her first day at the palace, and her cousin sent someone to find her. Was she already impatient?

Thinking of this, Murong Xinyun, an eighteen-year-old girl, felt a little nervous, but she also understood that things cannot be avoided.

So since you can't avoid it, you have to face it bravely. The little girl's expression gradually became firm and asked;
"Let her come here!"

"Yes!"

Following Murong Xinyun's order, Ying'er also came in front of Murong Xinyun.

"Ying'er has met Miss Xinyun!"

This was not the first time Murong Xinyun had met Ying'er. She knew that Ying'er was her cousin's trusted maid, so she smiled and said:

'Ying Er, no need to be polite! "

Facing Murong Xinyun's smile, Ying Er, who had bowed, seemed a little cold and just said calmly:
"Miss Xinyun, the Imperial Concubine invites you to come over for a chat!"

Feeling the coldness in Ying'er's tone, Murong Xinyun seemed to have sensed Murong Qingwu's attitude towards her. The smile on her face froze a little, but she still nodded and said:

"I'll go right away!"

Half an incense stick later, under the guidance of Ying'er, Murong Xinyun came to a small courtyard with a fresh and elegant environment. Before she saw Murong Qingwu, Murong Xinyun heard a loud cry, and at this time a familiar voice came from the room.

"Take Jingyan back and give him to the nanny!"

"Yes!"

As the order was given, a nanny, surrounded by two maids, walked out of the room holding a child who was not even one year old. It was strange to say, because Ye Jingyan, the eighth son of Ye Mingsheng, was crying and making a fuss in the nanny's arms, which was very annoying!
But the child stopped crying immediately when he saw Murong Xinyun, and looked at Murong Xinyun with his big eyes curiously, as if his little head had realized that the beautiful girl in front of him was his aunt····················
Although Jingyan stopped crying, the nanny still faithfully carried out Murong Qingwu's order and carried Jingyan into the side room. At this time, Ying'er also brought Murong Xinyun into the main room and came in front of Concubine Murong of the Daqian Dynasty.

Looking at the elegant cousin in front of him, Murong Xinyun took a deep breath, then knelt down and said:

"Sister, Xinyun is sorry!"

Looking at her sister kneeling in front of her with a guilty look on her face, Murong Qingwu's expression was also very complicated. After sighing, she personally helped Murong Xinyun up from the ground and said:
"Xinyun, I know this is not what you want, and I don't blame you!"

Hearing Murong Qingwu say this, Murong Xinyun felt even more guilty, and after a moment of hesitation, he said:
"Don't worry, sister. Xinyun won't compete with you for favor!"

Although Murong Qingwu had long realized that her fifth uncle's family might have misunderstood her, she couldn't help laughing when she heard the word "competing for favor" and said:

"Xinyun, you all misunderstood this!"

"Sister, there is no favor here that is worth fighting for. If you can be favored, it is your ability, Xinyun. Sister will only be happy for you!"

Murong Xinyun was even more surprised when she heard this, but she felt that Murong Qingwu's words were very sincere and did not seem false. But if that was the case, why didn't her sister want her to enter the palace?
At this time, Murong Qingwu also saw the doubts in Murong Xinyun's heart, and immediately asked Qiqige to prepare a banquet, and then chatted with Murong Xinyun while eating···················

After drinking a cup of thyme, Murong Qingwu said with a complicated expression and some resentment:

"Xinyun, let me be frank with you. I am not favored in the palace. His Majesty used to come to see me a few times a month, but he hasn't come to see me for thirty-seven days. So the idea of ​​competing for favor is just your and Fifth Uncle's overthinking!"

After saying this, Murong Xinyun hesitated for a moment and said:
"Didn't my sister say that you were his majesty's dream lover, and when his majesty was in a poor position, he secretly spent a lot of money to ask a painter to paint a portrait of you, and hid it in his home to admire it day and night?"

Murong Qingwu's expression became even more resentful and she said with some self-mockery: "Although it is like this, maybe men won't cherish it once they get it!"

Looking at her sister who had turned into a resentful woman, Murong Xinyun had a complicated expression. She didn't know what had happened to her sister over the years to make the talented woman from the Great Zhou Dynasty become the resentful woman in the deep palace today.

At this time, Murong Qingwu said with some emotion:
"Xinyun, although His Majesty has many women in this deep palace, he only favors one person!"

Hearing her sister say this, Murong Xinyun couldn't help but think of the palace secrets that were circulating outside, and then tentatively said:

“Bae Ji-soo?”

Murong Qingwu nodded heavily and said with some emotion:
“He is a good man who values ​​relationships. Now that he has so many women, he still only favors the woman who loved him when he was in obscurity. This is also a rare and good story in history books. It’s a pity that the woman was not me…”

After the words fell, Murong Qingwu's face once again showed a self-deprecating smile, and then he picked up a glass of wine and put it into his mouth. Seeing this, Murong Xinyun could no longer suppress the doubts in his heart and asked:

"Sister, since you are not worried that I will enter the palace to compete with you for favor, then why are you unwilling to let me enter the palace?"

When Murong Xinyun asked this, Murong Qingwu did not answer directly, but sighed helplessly and then said quietly:

"Your Majesty has a habit!"

At this point, Murong Qingwu no longer concealed the matter and told it to Murong Xinyun. After learning the truth, Murong Xinyun couldn't help but show some worry on his face.

Seeing this, Murong Qingwu also spoke with great pity:
"Xinyun, you don't have to worry too much. Although His Majesty has this habit, you don't have to worry too much. His Majesty still respects us very much. If we don't want to, His Majesty won't force us!"

"But if you want to survive in this deep palace, you'd better adapt! After all, you need to rely on him in this deep palace."

Hearing Murong Qingwu say this, Murong Xinyun seemed to realize something, and after a moment of hesitation, he asked tentatively:

"Sister, you and Ying'er?"

Seeing her cousin asking this, Murong Qingwu felt a little ashamed in her heart, but under Murong Xinyun's gaze, she nodded silently, indicating that Murong Xinyun was right, things were just as she thought···················

Murong Qingwu continued:

"I know this is hard to accept, which is why I don't want you to enter the palace. In addition, this matter involves your majesty's privacy, so although I want to tell you, I am afraid that leaking the news will bring about a fatal disaster!"

Murong Xinyun nodded slightly when she heard this. Only at this moment did she understand her sister's good intentions!
At this time, Murong Qingwu also changed the subject and asked:

"I heard that you met An Miaoyi!"

Seeing that Murong Qingwu asked about this matter, Murong Xinyun did not hide it and told Murong Qingwu the whole story about the choice that An Miaoyi gave her during the day.

When Murong Qingwu heard An Miaoyi let Murong Xinyun decide whether to enter the palace, she was also very shocked. After pondering for a long time, she warned Murong Xinyun very seriously:
"Xinyun, An Miaoyi is a woman with a heart as vicious as a snake. She has always been mean and shameless, and she is ruthless. She has always wanted to get rid of our Murong family as soon as possible, so you must be vigilant when facing her. You must not let your guard down! You must not fall into her evil schemes!"

Murong Xinyun nodded seriously upon hearing this:

"Sister, I understand. I will definitely keep your teachings in mind!"

Seeing her sister's well-behaved face, Murong Qingwu seemed to have thought of something, and immediately asked in a low voice:

"How's the situation between you and him going? Have you broken up?"

Murong Xinyun was shocked when she heard this. She didn't know why Murong Qingwu knew this, but this was her biggest secret. Her father and brother had also warned her before she participated in the talent show that she must not admit it no matter who asked!
So even in the face of Murong Qingwu's gaze, Murong Xinyun flatly denied it when he thought of his father and brother's instructions:

"Sister, what are you saying? Xinyun, I don't understand..."

Seeing that Murong Xinyun seemed to be playing dumb with her, Murong Qingwu frowned slightly and said directly:

"What happened between you and Wang Shun!"

Seeing that Murong Qingwu had directly broken through this layer of window paper, Murong Xinyun did not dare to pretend any longer. He immediately stood up, bowed to Murong Qingwu again and said:
"Please keep it a secret for me, sister!"

"Xinyun, don't worry. I know the seriousness of the matter. I will keep it a secret for you without you having to tell me!"

"But Xinyun, you also have to understand what this matter means. You have entered the palace now. Your primary identity is no longer the daughter of the Murong family. You are also the concubine of Emperor Daqian. Xinyun, you have been a smart child since childhood. You should understand what awaits you if your affair is made public!"

"If you two don't break up completely, it will not only harm him and yourself, but also everyone in our Murong family. Do you understand what I mean?"

Hearing Murong Qingwu's solemn words, Murong Xinyun nodded painfully and said:

"Sister, I understand what you mean. I have severed all ties with him. From now on, I will be your majesty's concubine and will not have any relationship with other men!"

Hearing this answer, Murong Qingwu nodded in satisfaction. However, just when she wanted to comfort Murong Xinyun, she heard:

"Sister, can you tell my father that I will be at ease in the palace and ask him to release Wang Shun..."
