King Rui took in a light breath and raised his head to look at Long Zhaofeng with a serious expression. "Your Majesty, you know that this subject doesn't have any feelings for Chang Xin, so why do you insist on taking her as an imperial concubine? A union without love would not bring happiness. The Emperor had always doted on her, so wouldn't he think for her future? "

With a loud 'bang', Long Zhaofeng's palm slammed onto the table, causing the rim of his cup to shake and fall to the ground: "Xiao Jue! You dare to make insinuations in front of me? You are simply too audacious! "

To the side, Hua Fei was frightened by Long Zhaofeng's heavy slap until her beautiful face turned pale. Her small face stiffened as she stood to the side, not daring to make a move. Long Yan was furious! This was what every imperial concubine feared the most!

Back then, when he forcefully adopted Mu Chen as his concubine, Mu Chen was in love with the Rui King to the point that he wanted to die. Mu Chen didn't have the slightest bit of love for the emperor, who was even more powerful than him.

After entering the palace, he had spent almost everything he had to love and pamper her, but what he got in return was the name of another man in her dreams. He knew, he knew, he knew!

But he still wanted to have her like this, to guard her, even if it meant only a body.

"Your Majesty has misunderstood this subject's meaning. This subject only said that there should be no such thing as fate between Chang Xin and this subject." Your subject has no love for Changxin, and your subject has no sense of justice either. I hope that your majesty can choose a new husband for Princess Changxin, one that she likes. " King Rui was not afraid to die, so he said these words with great comprehension and reverence.

"Are you refusing the marriage?" Long Ze's handsome eyebrows slightly raised, his eyes revealed a trace of a dangerous aura. No one had ever dared to resist him, no one had ever dared to destroy the marriage contract with one finger!

"This subject only feels that there are many outstanding princes and ministers in the Revolving Moon Kingdom. The Emperor should choose a better one for her." Even though he knew there was no hope, and even though he knew it would only provoke the emperor, he still suggested it. Because other than Lin Mu Chen, he didn't want to take any other woman as his wife. If he couldn't be with Mu Chen, he would rather be alone and be as carefree as he was now. The four seas were his home. Occasionally, he would return to the Imperial City to see if his fourth sister was doing well.

"But I feel that you are more outstanding than any other noble or noble official." Long Zhaofeng suddenly let out a cold laugh and raised his hand to indicate, "Alright, I thank King Rui on behalf of Changxin for his kindness. Since this matter has been decided, I will naturally not make any changes. The so-called 'Jun Wu Yi' is no joke!"

"Your Majesty …" King Rui said anxiously, "Your Majesty clearly knows that Chang Xin deeply loves Your Majesty. Why did you push her to this subject's side? It would break her heart. "

"There are so many concubines in my country that I can't even stay in the harem anymore. As for Chang Xin, I think it's better if I don't make her feel wronged." Long Zhaosu took a sip of his fragrant tea and no longer looked at him.

Rui Wang had already been stuffed into silence. He could only give up fighting for it. After a moment of silence, Long Zhaofeng spoke again, "Duke Rui usually has to accompany Chang Xin when he has the time. It's fine to take her to the mansion for a short stay. Aren't feelings that can be developed?"

King Rui chose to remain silent. Would Changxin be willing to leave the palace and stay with him in the mansion? It seems to be a little difficult, right?

However, Long Zhaoting seemed to be intentionally sending off Chang Xin. It was obvious that he was doing it for Mu Fei. Everyone knew that Chang Xin and Mu Fei wouldn't be able to get along. He was willing to do anything that was beneficial to Mu Fei, even bringing the unruly and willful Chang Xin into the manor.

Just as Lin Mu Fan walked into the imperial garden with difficulty, the Rui King was about to leave. Seeing that the Rui King and Long Ze's expressions were still calm, Lin Mu Fan let out a sigh of relief. At least... It wasn't as she had imagined. The two men with their hearts full of thorns were once again in a state of discord.

She stood outside the pavilion without the courage to step inside. She was afraid that before she could step inside, she would have already been dismembered into a thousand pieces! According to Long Zhaofeng's endurance, this was very possible!

Rui Wang had originally wanted to swallow Lin Mofan down with his words, and throw Lin Mofan to Long Zhaofeng alone. He was worried about this!

Long Zhaoting and Rui Wang's gazes landed on Lin Mofan at the same time. They saw the sorry state she was in, her face was pale, and there were even some scratches on her neck. Rui Wang couldn't help but be alarmed. When he sent her back to the cold palace, she was clearly still fine, so why didn't she get a token? It really was a disaster!

"Mu Fei, are you waiting for This Emperor to kowtow and pay his respects?" The corner of Long Ze's mouth slightly raised as he smiled at Lin Mufan, who was frozen outside the pavilion. He had successfully roused her from her daze.

"Your majesty, will you still forgive Mu Chen?" Lin Mofan smiled bitterly as he walked in. He bowed in front of Mu Chen and said, "Mu Chen only requests that the Emperor agree to one matter. Mu Chen will not complain about any matters regarding the Emperor."

"Heh, the two of you came here today with the mindset of looking on death's door to beg for forgiveness. Have you two agreed on this early on?" Long Ze sized up the two of them, his jealousy igniting in his heart.

Lin Mu Fan and Rui Wang looked at each other but didn't say anything. Long Ze could only continue, "What Mu Fei wanted to say was the antidote to the Red Heart Poison, right? You want to ask me for an antidote for a little dog, right? "

Looking for an antidote for the dog? Rui Wang suddenly looked at Lin Mu Fan and muttered in astonishment, "The little mutt was poisoned?"

Lin Mu Fan's complexion became increasingly pale. He was tongue-tied as he faced Rui Wang. His expression was that of astonishment and worry. Only he knew that what was poisoned was not a small dog, but a small life!

"Yes …" "En!" Lin Moyan replied breathlessly as she hurriedly avoided his gaze. She didn't plan on letting him know that the baby was poisoned, but who knew that Long Zhaijing would say that in front of him!

Would Long Zai know about the puppies being poisoned? And knew about it so quickly? Could it be that Poison King Valley's Flying Book had come to the palace? She thought to herself. No matter how he knew, he couldn't hide anything from him. He kneeled on the ground and begged, "I beg for Your Majesty's consent!"

Long Zhaosu stood up from his chair and walked to her, bent over and grabbed her waist with one hand, and lifted her up from the ground. Watching her, he sneered: "You ran away from the palace with all your life just to find an antidote for your little dog? Mu Fei, you sure are compassionate! "

"I didn't mean to run away from the palace. I went to find the empress dowager, but she wouldn't let me out. "I also went to the Qing Yang Palace to look for the emperor, but I couldn't even find the emperor. I only chose to flee because I was in a hurry!" Lin Mu Fan tried his best to defend himself. Perhaps this way, Long Ze's anger would dissipate a bit, and the chances of getting the antidote would increase.

"But I have asked you for a reason to leave the palace, and you refused." The hand around her waist tightened and the other gently stroked her neck. On his pure white skin, a purplish pinch lingered between his fingers.

"I …" Lin Mofan was speechless. After a moment of silence, he said, "I was worried that the emperor wouldn't let me leave the palace after hearing this reason. Your majesty, please …" I don't want the dog to die! "

"Who was the one who poisoned this poison? How could you poison a dog? " The silent Imperial Concubine suddenly spoke out: "Could it be Little Sister Mei? But there's no reason. Lil Sis Meifei shouldn't have poisoned a dog. "

Long Zhaosu and King Rui were both deep in thought. Lin Mu Fan could guess that it was due to the bowl of cold medicine. When Zhu'er went to fry the medicine, she reported it to Mu Fei, so it was only natural that she was given the medicine to drink.

Since Mei Fei had already gone mad, there was no point in pursuing the matter any further. Lin Mu Fan did not respond to her words. Instead, he stared fixedly at Long Ze, holding his breath as he waited for his response.

Long Ze glanced at Hua Fei, then turned his gaze towards Lin Mu Fan and smiled indifferently: "Do you want me to save that puppy? How do you plan to apologize for fleeing the palace? "

"Mu Chen is at the mercy of the Emperor." Lin Mu Fan gritted his teeth, as though he was looking forward to his death.

"Is that true?" Long Ze raised his eyebrows with interest and pointed towards the deep pond beside him. "Mu Fei can jump into the pond to show her loyalty. This Emperor will naturally believe that you are truly willing to let me punish you."

Lin Mu Fan looked at the deep green waters beneath the pavilion. Inside, the bottom could not be seen and fish were gathering. She wasn't afraid of the depth because she had grown up in Binhai City, so her swimming skills were still passable. What she was afraid of was that there would be large rocks or water snakes under the water, something that would be difficult for her to think of at that time.

"Does the emperor know how to give the BOSS the antidote just by jumping?" Lin Mufan asked in a daze.

Long Zhaosu released her and stood with his hands behind his back: "Jun Wu Yi is joking."

"Your Majesty, you absolutely cannot …!" Hua Fei's heart was burning with anxiety. She took a step forward and held onto Long Ze's sleeve as she shouted, "This pool of water is so deep that we can't see the bottom. If Mu Fei were to jump in, she will definitely die."

The worry on Hua Fei's face was very real, but before she could finish her sentence, Lin Mofan jumped into the pond, followed by the sound of splashing water.

"Little sister Mu Fei …!" Hua Fei threw herself onto the railing and shouted out to the splashing water.

After Lin Mu Fan's figure landed, the Rui Wang wordlessly followed, diving into the water with her. Their clothes fluttered in the water, and then they suddenly broke out of the water and landed in the middle of the pavilion.

Lin Mu Fan didn't expect that Rui Wang would suddenly save him, so he was extremely surprised. Water droplets from his hair trickled down her stunned face, dripping onto the ground along with her clothes. Two drenched people were standing in front of Long Zhaofeng like drowned chickens, in a sorry state!

Long Zhaofeng, who was just as worried as the others, was immediately relieved when he saw that the two of them were standing in front of him in perfect condition. However, other than himself, no one else knew about these subtle movements.

"Little sister Mu Fei, are you alright?" Hua Fei walked up with concern and used her handkerchief to wipe away the water droplets on Lin Mu Fan's forehead. She said with a pained expression, "Sister, why are you doing such a foolish thing? "The Emperor just said that. He wouldn't really let my younger sister jump into the lake."

Because the water in the pool was too cold, Lin Mofan wasn't able to keep his breath. Suddenly, he started to cough loudly, and all that came out was water. It made her so disgusted that she wanted to die, but also scared King Rui so much that he didn't know what to do.

Rui Wang had just done something that would make Long Ze feel absolutely furious. If he still showed too much concern for Lin Mu Fan, he would only harm her and not help her.
