Chapter 1078: The Spotted Bamboo Flute
When she trained, she’d start sweating and expel some of the poison left by the pills, but this wasn’t enough.
The hidden guard that Ning Shu had sent to keep an eye on Mu Xue had returned to report her findings.
Ning Shu mentally sorted out what the hidden guard had said. Basically, Mu Xue now only wore black in her own residence and never wore any jewelry. She barely allowed any servants to attend to her and also never entered the back courtyard.
She had also started binding her chest.
From these factors, Ning Shu was now certain that it was a man inside Mu Xue’s body, and this man clearly believed strongly in masculinity.
It was seriously getting more and more lively.
However, Mu Xue had done one good thing, which was that she established punctuation marks. It was now much easier for Ning Shu to read the memorials and deal with government affairs.
For now, she was going to follow Mu Nichang’s path and get rid of Mu Xue’s position as the heir apparent. Could it be that Mu Nichang had discovered something, that was why she had risked the stability of the nation to remove Mu Xue’s crown prince status?
She had discovered that it was a man’s spirit inside Mu Xue’s body?
The original host didn’t give Ning Shu much useful information.
But it was clear by now that this task wasn’t going to be simple.
She had really been naive before to think that this task would be simple.
Ning Shu felt that her tasks were becoming increasingly difficult. Was it due to her luck or was the system doing this on purpose?
During this time, she hadn’t been visiting the inner palace, so Liu Changqing would occasionally bring her some nourishing soup. His expression was mild as he told Ning Shu to pay attention to her health like he was carrying out a mere formality. It really made Ning Shu’s balls hurt.
Every time she saw the spotted bamboo flute hanging by Liu Changqing’s waist, she’d feel the urge to ask about where this flute came from. Liu Changqing seemed to treasure it a lot. It was always with him except when he was sleeping.
Ning Shu’s heart was going crazy from the itch of curiosity, so she couldn’t stop herself from asking, “Phoenix Empress, does this flute have some meaning?”
Liu Changqing untied the flute and lifted it as he said, “Changqing had personally made this flute.”
The spotted bamboo flute had traces of mottled marks, like someone’s tears had fallen on it. Ning Shu nodded as she said, “Phoenix Empress’s craftmanship is quite good.”
Liu Changqing pressed his lips together, his expression a little despondent. He reminded her to remember to drink the soup, then left.
Ning Shu was completely baffled. Did she say something wrong? Why did it feel like Liu Changqing was angry?
Could it be that she shouldn’t have praised his craftsmanship and should’ve said that the flute looked good?
“Your Majesty, you and the phoenix empress had planted spotted bamboo together when you two were children.” Court Lady Qiu finally couldn’t look on anymore.
Ning Shu: (⊙0⊙)
