The general's eldest daughter has a spatial ability

Mu Yuyan was stunned when she heard Nangong Huan's words: "It's not like we can just have a baby whenever we want. Besides, that brat is almost of age. If we have another baby now, wouldn't people laugh at us?"

Nangong Huan replied, "Who dares to laugh at me? Give them the guts! Besides, even if that brat gets married and has his own child, if we have another princess, we can raise her together with his child. Wouldn't that be great?"

Mu Yuyan seemed to be pondering Nangong Huan's words. Suddenly, she exclaimed, "Oh dear! Hurry! It's almost time for the palace banquet!" After saying that, she fled ashore, entered the inner hall, and began to call in palace maids to help her with her makeup and dressing.

Nangong Huan chuckled. Yan'er was still so shy and clumsy, even choosing such a lame excuse to change the subject. As the emperor and empress, the palace banquet would definitely have to wait until they arrived before it could begin.

But he followed closely ashore, where he was helped by a palace attendant to change into a dragon robe, and then went to the main hall to wait for Mu Yuyan.

After Mu Yuyan finished dressing and changed into the Empress's phoenix robe, she came to the main hall. The two of them walked hand in hand towards the palace banquet. Because the journey was short, they did not take a sedan chair, but walked side by side.

In Consort Liu's palace, Consort Liu was discussing the selection of husbands for today's palace banquet with Consort De. Consort De was the mother of the Fifth Prince. Consort De paced back and forth anxiously and said, "Oh dear, Consort Liu, what should we do? There are only the Fifth Prince, the Third Prince, the Sixth Prince, and the Seventh Prince who are of marriageable age but not yet betrothed."

The Sixth Prince is far away in Jiangnan, and the Seventh Prince is far away on the frontier. Nangong Li is a cripple, a sickly man who won't live long. Do you think Mo Liuyun will choose my son? What should we do? Your Highness, you must think of a solution for me! I can't let the Fifth Prince marry Mo Liuyun; people will laugh at him for the rest of his life.”

At this moment, a palace maid approached Consort Liu and whispered a few words in her ear. Upon hearing this, Consort Liu clenched her handkerchief, her eyes filled with anger, but in an instant she regained her haughty expression.

But inwardly she cursed: "You shameless wretch! As the Empress, you act like a vixen, even trying to seduce the Emperor for lewd acts in broad daylight! How utterly shameless!"

In truth, Consort Liu was filled with intense jealousy. From the moment she began to serve the Emperor, he rarely stayed overnight in her palace. Whenever the Emperor stayed in her palace, he would blow out the candles before they made love and forbade the palace servants to attend to him. Later, relying on the Emperor's favor, she asked him why he did this!

His Majesty replied, "Don't you think the darkness of night carries a sense of mystery and has a unique charm?" Later, she also privately inquired with Consort De and Consort Rou, and both of them said that His Majesty liked to make love with them at night and never stayed overnight!

She gradually put aside her wild thoughts and thought that His Majesty just had such a special hobby. Compared to Consort De and Consort Rou, at least the Emperor had stayed overnight in her palace. Although the number of times he stayed overnight each year was very few, it must be said that compared to the other concubines, she was still the Noble Consort who was favored by His Majesty.

But what did she hear? Today, His Majesty actually went to the Empress's palace before the palace banquet and stayed for an hour. Moreover, when he came out, both the Emperor and the Empress had changed their clothes, and the Emperor came out with a beaming smile! Without anyone saying more, everyone knows what the two of them did in that hour. And it's daytime now, how can it not make people jealous?

Why is it that when they are with him, they can't see His Majesty's face clearly, while the Empress, who seems to be out of favor, is the Emperor's only exception?

"Your Highness, are you even listening to me? I'm so anxious! Please, please think of something for me!" Consort De stepped forward anxiously.

Consort Liu was pulled back to reality by Consort De's voice. Looking at Consort De, who was looking anxious, she said calmly, "Actually, marrying Mo Liuyun is not necessarily a bad thing. Have you heard? When Mo Liuyun rewards his servants, he just casually pulls out pearls."

It's clear that the Xiao family and General Mo dote on him. The Xiao family has a rich history and previously held significant military power. If the Fifth Prince could win Mo Liuyun's heart and marry her, wouldn't that be a great asset in the future?

Consort De said, "Oh dear, Your Highness, please spare my fifth son! He heard about this yesterday and came to the palace early this morning, saying that he would rather die than marry that ugly woman, Mo Liuyun."

She said she was still the woman the Fourth Prince didn't want, and that even if he became a monk, he would never marry Mo Liuyun. I really couldn't do anything about her. Besides, our Yu'er has no ambition and only wants to be a carefree prince.

"I have no family to rely on, and all I want is for Yu'er to live a peaceful life. Therefore, I still need to rely on Your Highness to help my son and me."

After listening to Consort De's words, Consort Liu smiled and nodded: "Let me think about this matter. However, there is a way to help the Fifth Prince avoid being chosen by Mo Liuyun. We just need to help Mo Liuyun choose another prince. However, this matter will be risky. I wonder if Consort De is willing to take the risk for the sake of the Fifth Prince? This move may anger the Empress and the Third Prince."

When Consort De heard that she had angered the Empress, she seemed unconcerned. However, upon hearing the name of the Third Prince, her face turned terrified: "No! No! The Third Prince is a ruthless killer. He will kill me and the Fifth Prince. He is already nearing the end of his life. If a fight breaks out, even His Majesty will be powerless against him."

Consort Liu replied, "Then there's nothing I can do. We can only leave it to fate. Everyone has their own destiny. Perhaps Mo Liuyun will choose the Sixth Prince, or even the Seventh Prince!"

Consort De couldn't think of any other good ideas, so she could only say, "If all else fails, I'll just have my son pretend to be sick."

Consort Liu chuckled, "Have you forgotten where you are? There are plenty of imperial physicians in the palace. Do you want this old criminal to deceive the emperor?"

Consort De slumped into her chair, deflated like a punctured balloon. "Sigh, this won't work, that won't work. Does Fifth Prince really have to marry that ugly woman nobody wants?"

When Mo Liuyun and his group arrived at Zhengyang Store, they saw small groups of people whispering with acquaintances. As Mo Liuyun and his group arrived, the adults they knew came up to greet Xiao Yi, Mo Yunyi, and Mo Liuyun.

"Greetings, Duke Protector of the Nation!"

"Greetings, General Mo!"

"Greetings, Princess Pingyang!"

Xiao Yi, Mu Yunyi, and Mo Liuyun returned the greetings and sat down in their seats, enjoying a harmonious atmosphere. Suddenly, a very abrupt female voice rang out: "You are Mo Liuyun?"

Mo Liuyun looked in the direction of the sound and saw a richly dressed woman, about fifteen or sixteen years old, with bloodshot eyes, looking at him with anger and hostility.

"May I ask who you are?" Mo Liuyun stood up and asked politely.

The woman's maidservant looked down at Mo Liuyun with her nose in the air and said, "This is Princess Anping. She doesn't even bow to our princess. She really doesn't know any manners."

Mo Liuyun's smile vanished, and he coldly sat back down in his seat. Behind him, Lian'er angrily retorted, "Who do you think you are? How dare you lecture our princess? Princess Anping is a princess, but our princess is the Princess Pingyang, a second-rank official with her own fief, bestowed by His Majesty the Emperor. What rank is your princess? How dare you come up here and demand that our princess pay her respects?"

Princess Anping's maidservant blushed and was speechless after being rebuked by Lian'er. Princess Anping then slapped the maidservant, saying, "Who told you to be so talkative?"

Mo Liuyun looked at the master and servant in front of him without saying a word. He didn't know when he had offended them. Just as he was thinking, the eunuch's voice came from outside the hall: "His Majesty has arrived! His Majesty the Empress has arrived! His Highness Prince Pingnan has arrived!"
