"That's the question I want to ask you. How do you want to get out of the world so much less painful?" Lin Mu Fan chuckled as he used his lower jaw to point at Xiao Yu, who was beside him carrying Bai Ling and the poison. He mocked: "Choose one yourself. I don't have much time to waste here with you."

When Concubine Rong saw Bai Ling and the poison in Xiao Yu's hands, she couldn't keep her calm any longer and immediately kneeled on the ground, begging, "Esteemed Empress Dowager Mu, please forgive me. I was in the wrong in the past, it was my fault …"

"You finally admitted it was your fault? You want me to let you go? "Sure, cure Pearl first." All the injuries she had suffered were already in the past, but Zhu'er still had to endure the pain of a mute for the rest of her life. As long as she thought of this, she would not let her go.

Consort Rong was startled, tears rolling down her face. It was impossible for her to treat Zhu'er in this lifetime! But she didn't want to die, even if she had to live in the cold palace!

"Esteemed Mufei, please let me go. I'm willing to be an ox or a horse, even if you want me to be a girl. As long as you let me live." Consort Rong wiped away her tears again and again.

"Become a servant girl?" Lin Mu Fan sneered, "I was afraid that you would stomp me down again after becoming a servant girl. It was due to your lack of heart that you were thrown into the Cold Palace."

As the saying goes, being merciful to the enemy was akin to being cruel to oneself. If Lin Mu Chen had killed her back then, there wouldn't have been so many things happening later on. The Boss, Zhu Er and himself wouldn't have suffered so much!

Lin Mu Fan's words were already so vicious, and Rong Fei knew it was useless to continue begging him. She just remained silent as tears streamed down her face.

She didn't expect to lose to this woman two years later. She was extremely unwilling, but there was nothing she could do. She had the emperor's favor, so she could only resign herself to her fate!

When Lin Mofan saw that she no longer spoke, he faintly smiled before turning his head to Little Yu behind him and said: "Serve your master and go to another world. We can't keep her here anymore."

"Yes, the Empress …" "En," Xiao Yu replied slightly shakily as she walked towards Rong Fei.

"Wait." A voice suddenly sounded from outside the door. Lin Mofan abruptly turned around and saw the empress dowager slowly walking in. His heart skipped a beat, and he immediately looked at her warily, not understanding why she had suddenly come here.

The empress dowager glanced at Rong Fei who was on the ground, sighed, and said to Lin Mufan, "Mufei, it's not good to kill people in the imperial palace, so just let her live. Just lock her up in the cold palace or send her to the buddhist hall."

So she was here to plead. Lin Mofan sneered in his heart. Previously, she had clearly said that she wouldn't ask about the matter regarding Consort Rong. He didn't expect that she would actually come to the Cold Palace to plead for mercy.

"Esteemed empress dowager, the empress's heart is filled with hatred for evil, so she doesn't have any heart for Buddha. What's the use of sending it to the buddhist temple?" Her smile was incomparably cold, and even the empress dowager's heart chilled as she looked at it.

"It seems that Mu Fei is determined to kill the empress." The empress dowager helplessly sighed and looked at Imperial Concubine Rong once more. When she saw the expectant look on her face, her heart naturally ached. So he could only continue, "Mu Fei, can't you spare her life on my face? I will give you my guarantee that the empress won't do anything that would let you down. After all, you have always served my child, so I can't bear to part with you! "

When the empress dowager pleaded for mercy, it was naturally impossible to not give her any face. Although Lin Mufan was unhappy, he still left her some face. She smiled faintly and said, "Then let the empress go to the nunnery and shave her head. Perhaps after Buddha's baptism her heart will calm down a lot, and she won't do anything harmful in the future."

"… …." said the empress dowager. Not only was Imperial Concubine Rong shocked, but the empress dowager was also shocked. If he went to the Buddhist Sangha with the Buddha, he would still be able to train and come out in the future, but once he had shaved his head, he would no longer have the chance to return to the mortal world. In the future, she would have to stay in the temple for the rest of her life, leading an ordinary and boring life. With Consort Rong's personality, how could she possibly stay?

"This …" The empress dowager turned to Consort Rong with difficulty and asked helplessly, "Rong'er, are you willing?"

She did not answer the empress dowager, but instead raised her small face and stared viciously at Lin Mu Fan. After a long while, she spat out a sentence through gritted teeth, "Lin Mu Chen, don't get cocky too early. If you treat others so viciously, you will receive your retribution one day. Just you wait and see!"

After saying that, he suddenly got up from the green stone floor, and hit his head on a big red pillar at the side. A 'bang' sound was the sound of her forehead hitting the pillar. Time seemed to have stopped at this moment. Everyone present was stunned. They could only watch helplessly as her body fell limply to the ground, bleeding profusely.

"Rong'er!" The empress dowager rushed forward anxiously and lifted her up from the ground. "Rong'er, what are you doing?! Why are you so stupid? Don't you want to live that much? "Rong'er …!"

With great difficulty, Rong Fei opened her eyes. She raised her finger to point at Lin Mufan and painfully said, "Empress Dowager …" "Rong'er was killed by her. I beg you to avenge my son, or else I won't be willing to die …"

Before she could finish her sentence, she could no longer hold on to her eyes. She was no longer angry.

The empress dowager's heart ached as she hugged her. Her tears flowed down as she sobbed softly, "Why are you so stupid? How could he just leave like that? "What's so bad about going to a nunnery?"

The moment when Rong Fei crashed into the pillar, her blood flowed like a river, Lin Mofan's heart skipped a beat and he was shocked. She had never expected that Imperial Concubine Rong would commit suicide. This scene was simply too cruel, and she couldn't help but feel fear in her heart. She turned her face away from the brutal scene and walked out of the cold palace.

Imperial Concubine Rong was finally dead. She had taken her revenge, but her heart didn't feel the least bit comfortable. Instead, she felt a faint sense of loss. The image of the concubine crashing into the wall had been hovering in her mind, as if she was the one who had pushed her up. Actually... What was the difference between this and what she had pushed up herself? Anyway, he was forced to his death by her. Imperial Concubine Rong was cursing her even before she died!

Retribution! In this harem, they had always done mutual retribution and hurt each other. There was no need for her to care about that crazy phrase. However, he felt particularly uncomfortable in his heart, as if that curse was really going to come true for him. The unease in his heart became more and more serious.

"Empress, why aren't you leaving?" Little Green sized up Lin Mufan and asked, not understanding why she suddenly stopped. Lin Mu Fan came back to his senses and said with a smile, "It's nothing. I suddenly feel a little dizzy."

"Then let's go back and rest." Green took her arm and said with concern.

Lin Mu Fan nodded his head and asked faintly: "Xiao Lu, did you hear what consort Rong just said? She said that I would get my retribution. That sound sounds really scary. "

"Esteemed Empress, you can even take in these words?" Green smiled and comforted her, "The empress has said too much, it's all against the Empress's interests. Why would the empress care?"

"But when I heard that, I panicked." Lin Mu Fan smiled bitterly. Actually, she didn't commit any heinous crimes. However, he didn't know why she was feeling so nervous inside.

"Empress, don't think too much into it. It's okay, let's hurry up and leave this place." Little Green gave Zhu'er a meaningful glance, forcefully pulling her away from the cold palace.

"Niangniang, this is the new maid who came in this year. After the first selection, there are twenty remaining. Could you please move the Peony Pavilion over to have a look and select one?" An old nanny asked as she stood in front of Lin Mufan with a list in her hand.

The empress had just passed away and everything that happened in the imperial harem naturally fell onto Lin Mufan. Now, she was in charge of the harem, and the emperor had even adopted the young crown prince as her successor.

At this moment, she had just coaxed the little prince to sleep, so she casually took the flower name from the mama's hands and flipped through it. Inwardly, he was not eager and annoyed. He said sourly, "What choice do you have? Just leave them all to the emperor. Didn't he love beauties?"

The mama gave a start, then laughed dryly. "Empress, this won't do. If this goes on for a few years, the harem won't be able to hold on. Besides, the emperor never said he loved beauties, hehe …"

The Emperor had always only doted on Mu Fei, and everyone else had seen it. He actually still disliked the Emperor for loving beauties. It seemed like women were all greedy and would never feel satisfied with their love.

Lin Mofan seemed to be addicted to pain, as he calmly said, "Just thinking about it is enough, is there still a need to say anything? And when the time comes for them to be unable to stay, they can just squeeze into Qing He Palace. What's there to be afraid of? "

"Ugh …" "This …" The mama was speechless and put in a difficult position. Standing at his original position, Lin Mufan did not know what to do. However, at this moment, he smiled and said: "Forget it, I won't joke with you anymore. Bring me to the Peony Pavilion to take a look."

It was true that he was jealous, but it wasn't a good idea to be jealous in front of so many servants. Besides, there was no point in it. He then turned around and walked towards the entrance of the Cloud Palace, preparing to enter the Peony Pavilion.

The moment the mama heard her words, she calmed down and led the way with a chuckle.

When Lin Mufan walked out, he instructed Zhu'er, "Stay here and take care of the Boss. Remember not to let the Eastern Palace Empress Dowager and the other concubines enter. If they really want to enter, carry the Boss away."

Pearl nodded her head in understanding, indicating that she would take good care of the Boss. Only then did Lin Mu Fan leave with a sigh.

Lin Mu Chen hadn't been to the Peony Pavilion yet, so he didn't know which corner they were at. He could only follow the mama to the east side of the imperial palace.
