Long Zhaoting knew that she was afraid of drinking the medicine, so he held her in his arms and gently coaxed her, "Mu Chen be good, you're injured now, but your wounds won't heal until you drink the medicine. Don't you want to quickly recover?"

"But the medicine is so bitter, I don't want to drink it anymore!"

"The bitter medicine will only help your wound." The blood loss from her body was not something that could be recovered in a short period of time. She still needed to slowly recover and recuperate in the future. Recalling the scene of her wrist bleeding profusely yesterday, his heart ached.

When Lin Mu Fan heard his words, he was unwilling to part with his head. Looking at the medicinal juice in the bowl, he extended his hand to receive it and said, "Then let me carry it myself."

"Can I feed it to you?" Long Zhaozu was afraid that she would smash this bowl of medicine with just one sip. This was the most precious and exotic herb selected from the warehouse of Poison King Valley. It was extremely beneficial to one's vital energy and blood. He had been drinking it the entire time because he had lost too much blood every time the poison broke out. If he didn't drink it, he probably wouldn't be able to hold on for a long time!

Lin Mofan didn't ask for his food. Instead, he held the medicine bowl and frowned a little. In the end, he gritted his teeth and drank all the medicine in the bowl. After drinking it, his small face seemed to have gone through an extremely painful experience as it wrinkled. Long Ze felt his heart ache and he wanted to laugh. He patted her hair and praised, "Mu Chen is the most obedient and the bravest."

As she spoke, she picked up two candied fruits from the servant girl's hands and placed them into her mouth. "Here, eat these two candied fruits."

Lin Mu Fan hurriedly took it. His small mouth, which was numb from the pain, finally felt better. With a smile, he said, "Thank you, your majesty. Can I eat a lot of candied fruits?"

"You can eat more, but not a lot. If you eat too much, your stomach will spoil." After Long Ze finished speaking with a smile, he said to one of the servant girls: "Go get another set of candied fruits. Don't have too much."

A maidservant was ordered to withdraw from their relationship. The other people in the room were so envious of how good the Emperor was to his concubine that they prostrated themselves before him. They all say that Emperors are heartless, but to think that the Emperor before them would actually treat women so well. He is even more considerate than his own mother.

The candied fruits were brought, and Lin Mufan and the rest of the servants shared the food with great delight. After a while, Long Ze quietly walked out of the Cabinet. Staring at Ke Meng, he seriously asked, "How is it? Is it any use? "

"Your majesty, don't worry. Refining the medicine will take at least three days. We'll find out in three days whether it's effective or not."

"It's been so long …" Long Ze muttered in a low voice.

Ke Meng hesitated for a moment before suggesting, "Your majesty, Esteemed Empress Mu's body is too weak for a long journey. You should rest for some time before you head back to the palace."

"Mm, I will pay attention to that. These few days, help me keep an eye on Mu Fei's diet."

"This subject orders, if there is nothing else from the emperor, this subject will take his leave first." Ke Meng cupped his fist and said.

"Alright, go ahead. We will call for you if there's anything." Long Zhaosu waved his hand at him and sighed helplessly.

After resting in Poison King's Valley for three days, Lin Mu Fan's body was already feeling better. He could now move about as a normal person would. However, his face was still somewhat pale. This was the general reaction of a large number of people after losing their color.

Because there were so many political affairs in the palace, and also because the feudal ceremony was going to be held, Long Zhaoting had to return to the palace early.

Seated on the horse, Longze asked one of his attendants impatiently, "Where's Colmon? Why hasn't he come out yet? "

"Your majesty, your servant will go look for him now." Just as the attendant was about to turn around and enter, Ke Meng walked out. With a solemn expression, he walked up to Long Ze and clasped his hands together. "Your Majesty …."

The corner of Long Ze's mouth curled up as he stared at him and forced a smile, "There's no hope, right?" Just by looking at Ke Meng's expression, he knew that there was no hope. The feeling of loss not only occupied Ke Meng's heart, but also his own!

"Yes, Your Majesty …" Ke Meng softly spoke as he glanced at Lin Mu Fan in Long Ze's embrace. His lips moved for a while but he did not dare to suggest Lin Mu Fan to let him down. He was afraid that once he made this suggestion, Long Zhaosu would kill him on the spot. He didn't want to take even the slightest bit of blood from Mu Fei, so taking his life would only mean taking his own life.

Long Ze didn't say anything else. He turned his horse's head and pressed its legs against the horse's abdomen, bringing Lin Mofan with him as he ran out of Poison King Valley. His hair and clothes fluttered in the wind. After a while, he disappeared from everyone's sight.

"Your majesty, why are you wearing a straight face?" Lin Mu Fan raised his small face and asked. She was sure she had been good, so the Emperor's displeasure should have nothing to do with him.

Long Ze pursed his lips into a smile as he said, "Mu Chen, Zhen didn't put on a straight face. You were the one who saw wrongly."

"Is that so? I clearly saw your stony face just now, and you even sighed. " Lin Mu Fan was sure that he wasn't mistaken.

"Mu Chen, I am very happy as long as I can be with you. Really." Longtou bent his head and kissed her on the lips. She tightened her steel-like arms, pushing her body closer to herself.

He was telling the truth. As long as he could be with her, he would feel happy. He sighed just now because he failed to refine medicine. Could it be that he would have to take Lin Mofan's life in order to refine medicine? Could it be that only one person between her and him could survive?

If so, he really didn't know what to do. If he died, not only would the Long family not be able to protect their mountains and rivers, but even Lin Mu Fan wouldn't have a chance to live. In the end, she would still die!

The imperial palace was decorated with lanterns and decorations, and red carpets were spread all the way from the throne room to the Qing He Palace.

The Empress's palanquin stopped at the gate of the Western Palace. The ceremonial style was towering, and the female eunuchs and maids were all covered in red. Their auras were imposing and solemn!

In the Western Palace, Xiao Cui smiled and flattered as she helped her put on her phoenix crown, "Esteemed Empress, you are really beautiful today." In the Western Palace, Xiao Cui smiled as she helped her put on her phoenix coronet as she flattered as she said, "Esteemed Empress, you are really beautiful today.

"Other consorts?" Consort Rong stroked the tassels on her forehead and sneered, "Those long-tongued women shouldn't even think about leaving the buddhist hall for their entire lives. That Imperial Concubine Hua let them be jealous of her for a few days, and then she'll go wherever she needs to go."

"Empress, Imperial Concubine Hua is just a shameless woman who only knows how to flatter and please the Emperor. Right now, the most difficult person to deal with is Mu Fei. She was protected so well by the emperor, it's really too difficult to touch her. " Xiao Cui lowered her voice and reminded him by her ear.

Rong Fei didn't seem to care and mockingly laughed: "It's just a crazy woman, I don't even put her in my eyes."

"But the emperor's almost going to lose his head because of her. I really wonder if she's a monster from somewhere. How did she get both the emperor and King Rui to become like this?" Xiao Cui mumbled.

Consort Rong looked left and right at the copper mirror. This phoenix crown was really dazzling. She had finally managed to wait for it to arrive. She was in such a good mood that she did not even take Xiao Cui's words to heart. He only casually said, "The Emperor just wants something new. After a year or two, he'll be tired of it and he'll just throw her into the cold palace. Who can endure a madman for too long?"

"Yes, the Empress is right." Xiao Cui continued to fawn, saying, "As a nation's mother, the Empress naturally need not fear anyone, and also need not fear Imperial Concubine Mu who is of a higher rank than the Empress."

Concubine Rong glared at her coquettishly. "Look at that little mouth of yours. It's sweet enough, but I'm afraid you'll make trouble for me one day! "You should have forgotten why the Emperor sent those women to the buddhist hall to think."

Xiao Cui shrunk her head, she did not dare continue to flatter.

At this moment, the sound of the empress dowager's arrival came from outside the courtyard. Rongfei hurriedly helped herself to the phoenix crown on her head and adjusted the phoenix robe on her body to receive her. "Rong`er pays his respects to the empress dowager."

The empress dowager smiled as she stepped forward to hold her hand and said, "Rong'er, you don't need to bow to me when you're dressed like this. It's very inconvenient after all, the empress dowager and I won't take offense. Elder sister, what do you say?" She turned to the Empress Dowager and smiled at her.

"Of course I don't mind. Rao'er is the empress now." Empress Dowager Dong Gong said with a sour smile.

Consort Rong gave her a quick look and lowered her head in silence. Empress Dowager Xi smiled faintly and pretended to be happy as she said, "It's still better to rely on your son's life and give birth to a crown prince for your majesty. Otherwise, the title of Empress will be hard to come by. Rong'er, you must treat the Emperor and the crown prince well in the future. "

"Rong'er understands." "En," Rong Fei lowered her head and replied softly. Her voice was as soft as water.

Western Palace's words were much more sour than what Eastern Palace said just now. Hearing those words, Eastern Palace felt extremely uncomfortable. Why aren't you giving it to the empress yet? "

"Yes sir!" A little servant girl hurried over, holding a tray in her hand as she lifted up the golden brocade. Immediately, that enviable, rarely seen Night Pearl appeared.

Eastern Palace took Concubine Rong's hand, and said with a loving smile, "Rong'er, this was the Night Pearl gifted to me by the late emperor when I was initially bestowed the title of Empress. I'll give it to you today. You need to take good care of it. "

"Empress Dowager Xie." As Consort Rong looked at the round and beautiful Night Pearls, she was instantly filled with joy. This was the first time in her entire life that she had seen a Night Pearl. She almost reached out her hand to caress the smooth and shining pearl. Out of politeness, she said, "But … "I'm afraid it won't be too good for the Empress to give such a precious item to Rong'er."

"That's alright. Mu Chen has so many of these beads. If I wanted one, it wouldn't be difficult for me to get one from her." As Donggong said this, he pretended to sigh helplessly and shook his head, saying, "A few days ago, I saw that child take the State of Yun. In the East Zhou, the Night Pearls offered by the Northern Reaches were used as marbles. It truly is outrageous. The emperor was impatient, so he gave her everything to please her. This Ye Mingzhen is a tribute from another country, it's so rare to see one. "

"Ai, what can the Emperor do?" The Western Palace continued to smile as they answered, "Mu Chen is a crazy businessman and tormented to the point that no one will be able to rest in peace. If the Emperor doesn't coax him, how can he live a comfortable life?"
