The two who were fighting earlier were stunned for a moment. As they looked at the newcomers, suspecting their identity, Xiao Lu and Zhu'er knelt down and greeted, "Greetings, Prince Rong!"

Prince Rong!? So this was the legendary King Rong. Lin Mufan did not forbid himself from looking at him. He had a scholarly figure, a steel-like face, and his entire body exuded a strong manly aura. Was he the King that the Emperor was going to invite tonight? He did not expect to meet him here, and he even coincidentally became his savior!

"Originally, you are Prince Rong, but this princess' matter is not your business!" Get out of the way for this princess! " Princess Changxin picked up the silver sword on the ground and prepared to attack Lin Mufan again.

Duke Rong once again acted to stop her, smiling slightly: "Princess, this is a large courtyard, isn't it better to just casually kill people here? Please calm down Princess, the Emperor is still waiting for Princess to sit down. "

When Princess Changxin saw that Prince Rong intended to meddle in the matter to the end, she snorted coldly and threatened Lin Mofan, "I won't let you off. Next time, you'd better not let me catch you!"

After saying so, he left in a huff. As he watched her figure recede into the distance, Lin Mufan turned around to face the King Rong who had saved him. When she discovered that he had already left in the direction of Qing Yang Palace, she felt that she should still thank him. She said to the back of Prince Rong, "Mu Chen thanks Prince Rong for saving my life. Thank you!"

The back of the figure in front who was walking forward suddenly stiffened. It turned around after a moment and sized up Lin Mufan with a stunned expression. Due to the veil on Lin Mufan's face, he could not see her appearance. But why was her voice so familiar? And … What did she say her name was?

"What did you say?" You're called Mu Chen? " King Rong cautiously asked as he sized her up.

Lin Mu Chen was slightly afraid as he nodded his head. Her original name was Lin Mufan, but no one knew her real name in this era. Everyone called her Mu Chen, so she naturally called herself Mu Chen. Was there a problem with that?

"Are you really Mu Chen?" "Lin Mu Chen?" Prince Rong exclaimed in surprise as he reached out his hand to hold her hand emotionally and asked, "Mu Chen, when did you enter the palace?" Why didn't anyone tell me that you would also enter the palace? "

Lin Mu Fan instinctively retracted his hand and looked at him in puzzlement. Did he know Lin Mu Chen? Do you know her well? Why was it that he could move his hands and feet so easily? And showing such excitement.

Duke Rong didn't feel anything amiss about her and was so excited that he spoke without caring about anything else, "Mu Chen …" Three years gone, how are you? "I had originally planned to go to the Palace to see you, but Lin Xiangguo said that you weren't at the Palace, so I never went. I didn't think that I would see you in the Palace, it is truly amazing …"

"I'm sorry." Lin Mofan had no choice but to interrupt his excitement. He apologetically said, "I'm sorry, Your Highness. I don't remember you. Moreover, I haven't lived in the mansion for three years."

Prince Rong was startled. He looked at her in surprise and asked, "What did you say? "Mu Chen, what did you say?"

"I said exactly what you heard. I'm sorry." Lin Mofan shrugged his shoulders helplessly. Could this be another infatuated person who had fallen in love with Lin Mu Chen? Just what was Lin Mu Chen doing that made so many men fall under her dress? Two princes in one emperor, my god! Her fate was truly good!

After staring blankly for a long time, King Rong finally asked in astonishment, "You said you don't remember me? How is that possible? "

"I really can't remember anymore. I got sick and forgot a lot of things." Although Lin Mofan could not bear to do so, he still said it honestly. She felt that it was necessary for her to tell him in advance so that he would not have a difficult time during the banquet.

"Mu Chen, what's wrong?" What exactly happened? " Duke Rong anxiously grabbed her hands and said, "How could you not remember me? We grew up together, how can you not remember me? "

"Actually, I don't want to either …" Lin Mufan tried his best to retract his hand, but this time, no matter how hard he tried, he was unable to do so. He held her tightly in his palm. Suddenly, a familiar voice called out from behind him. "This servant greets Prince Rong and Esteemed Empress Mu. The Emperor has an order for the Esteemed Empress to enter the palace as soon as possible."

Upon hearing Eunuch Liu's voice, Lin Mu Fan immediately retracted his hand and quickly left. This time, Prince Rong didn't dare to stop them. Although he had a stomach full of questions he wanted to ask and wanted to say, this was the Imperial Palace after all. No matter how much he said, he could only restrain himself.

Lin Mu Fan felt that he shouldn't have gone to the Qing Yang Palace. The King Rong's expression just now made her feel scared. Right now, she was most afraid of infatuated people because she didn't want to hurt them. Just like Rui Wang, she didn't want to hurt him, but in the end she still killed him. Right now, even the corpse was nowhere to be found!

But for some reason, the Emperor, who had always been considerate of her, insisted that she attend the banquet. There was no other way but to go. When they arrived at the banquet site, it was already evening. Once they entered the palace, Lin Mu Fan could feel a gaze that pierced the air coming from the VIP seats. She didn't need to look to know who was staring at her.

In front of outsiders, Lin Mufan was only playing the part of a madman, so he did not bother paying his respects. Standing in the middle of the hall and smiling at Long Ze, he walked to his side.

Prince Rong watched as she walked towards Long Zhaofeng's side as everyone paid their respects. "Esteemed wangfei's good fortune …"

His brain exploded and he froze where he was, stunned. He was the only one standing upright when everyone was curtsiing. How could Mu Chen be an imperial concubine? When did she become an imperial concubine? Why didn't he know? He always thought that Mu Chen was waiting for him to return to the imperial court and marry him!

This was what his mother had always told him, saying that as long as he returned, she would arrange a grand wedding for him and Mu Chen. Were these lies? He suddenly looked towards the Eastern Palace Empress Dowager, who immediately lowered her head as soon as she met his gaze. It was obvious that she was avoiding his gaze.

"Duke Rong, what's wrong? "Are you feeling unwell?" Long Ze, who was sitting on the seat in front, suddenly asked with a smile. His arm was wrapped around Lin Mu Fan as a sinister expression could be seen on his face. He did this on purpose!

Duke Rong recovered from his daze and replied with a shake of his head, "This subject is fine. This subject is fine."

"It's good that you're fine." Long Ze smiled lightly. He embraced Lin Mufan's shoulders and said, "Right, this is my imperial concubine. I heard that you grew up together. Your relationship shouldn't be bad. We can be considered fated."

Duke Rong didn't reply, he just sat down in a daze. His entire brain was buzzing from the sudden news. He never expected that Lin Mu Chen would become the emperor's imperial concubine. No wonder he met her in the palace. No wonder everyone didn't want him to visit the Lin Clan!

Long Zhaosu gave everyone a seat, and the singing and dancing in the main hall continued. The singing and singing of the singing whores filled the entire main hall. Prince Rong was already in a completely stunned state. He didn't even know that the emperor was giving him wine.

Consort Rong sat on the right side of the Longze, carefully pouring wine for him, playing the role of a gentle and considerate queen. Lin Mufan sat on the left side of the Longze Stronghold. All he had to do was constantly stuff something into his mouth and play the part of a lunatic.

She lowered her head to eat, not daring to raise her head for even a moment. She didn't dare meet Duke Rong's wounded eyes, nor did she dare to meet the malevolent gaze of Princess Changxin. She really wanted to find a shell and hide inside it.

Halfway through the banquet, Long Ze went to the hall to drink with Prince Rong. Lin Mu Fan could feel the gaze of Rong Fei on him. She raised her head and gave her a bright smile as she held up a pastry in front of her. "Does the empress want to eat it?"

"I couldn't do something as shameful as you. Your majesty's face has been completely lost." Concubine Rong snorted, turning her head to look at Xiao Lu, "Why aren't you sending your master back yet? Isn't that disgraceful enough? "

"Yes, esteemed empress." Little Green gave a grunt of agreement before walking up. She supported Lin Mofan's arm and whispered, "Empress, let's go. If we continue eating, we'll be bloated."

Lin Mofan nodded and left. Since she didn't want to stay here any longer, she left after bidding the Emperor farewell and getting up from her chair to leave. As she passed in front of Concubine Rong, she stomped heavily on her leg, causing a pig-slaughtering shriek to resound through the entire hall.

All of a sudden, the singing and dancing stopped. The guests' gazes swept over and rested on the esteemed empress. Rong Fei immediately paled due to the pain. Even though she wanted to continue pretending to be noble, but … It was too painful. She felt as if her ankle had been stepped on. Lin Mu Chen –! She wanted to kill her!

"Your majesty, is the Empress Sis performing a show?" Lin Mu Fa blinked his innocent eyes as he asked with a smile, "You want to trip her?" You want to humiliate her? What she regretted now was not using more strength to break her legs.

"Empress, are you alright?" Xiao Cui anxiously walked over and asked with concern.

"My feet... "It's about to break." Consort Rong cried out painfully. The pain had made her lose her image, but she never expected that her first time attending a banquet as the empress had caused her to lose face. It was all due to that woman!

Long Ze's face slightly darkened as he asked unhappily, "Empress, what are you doing?"

Confused, Consort Rong quickly shook her head and said, "It's nothing. Your majesty, chenqie is fine." After that, he waved and smiled to the guests, "Everyone, continue drinking, drink..."

When she cast an angry gaze at Lin Mu Fan, she only had enough time to look at her back as if nothing had happened. The anger in her heart burned hotter and hotter. Although she had wanted to trip up Lin Mufan earlier, due to the pain, she had already forgotten who was in the right and who was in the wrong. Gritting her teeth, she swore that she would take revenge for this!

Lin Mu Fan quickly walked back to Cloud Palace with Zhu'er and Little Green following closely behind him. They had an excited expression as they said, "Empress, your stomp just now was too great. Ah, the Queen was in so much pain that she almost rolled on the ground!"

As they spoke, they looked at each other and laughed. However, Lin Mofan didn't feel the least bit excited. To her, stepping on Concubine Rong was far from enough. What she wanted was to take her life!
