In the quiet room, they could only hear each other's breathing. In the dead of night, it was likely that only the two of them were still chatting in the entire imperial palace. Long Zhaoting pondered for a while, sighed and said, "It seems that you really shouldn't have moved to Jinhe Palace. I've never seen you having nightmares before, it must be because of the depression in your heart."

"Your majesty doesn't need to worry, just get used to the environment after a day or two." She was the only one who knew why she kept having nightmares about Long Zhaofan being killed. That was because she was too resistant to the arrival of the Houtian realm martial artists. That was the day when she would part with Long Zhaoting and the Boss!

"Why don't you go to my Qing He Palace for a few nights first?" Long Zhaoxuan suddenly suggested.

Lin Mu Fan shook his head and rejected him. He hugged him as he softly said, "Your majesty, at a time like this, you shouldn't do such special things to prevent others from feeling unhappy and then bringing harm to your majesty!"

"This isn't special. You're the imperial concubine, the Little Prince's birth mother. Who else can you give the position of Empress other than you?" Long Zhaofeng didn't feel that there was anything wrong with this.

Lin Mu Chen felt that there was nothing he could say, so he stopped speaking. These matters were already decided by the Emperor and had nothing to do with her. He didn't want to make the Emperor unhappy by talking too much now.

"Alright, Mu Chen, hurry up and rest." Lin Mu Chen, who was in her embrace, nodded. He closed his eyes and forced himself to sleep in this long and terrifying night.

Because he hadn't slept well that night, it was already late in the morning when Lin Mufan woke up the next day. Instinctively, she was shocked and cried out, "Little Green! Little Green! "

"Empress, what's wrong?" Green, who was working outside, rushed in and opened the tent.

"Where's the Boss?" Lin Mufan glared at her. The Boss had obviously been sleeping by her side the entire time, so why had it disappeared?

Green smiled faintly, helping her up while saying, "Empress, you've gotten confused again. The little prince is playing outside with Zhu'er. Besides Jinhe Palace, the little prince won't be able to go anywhere else."

"Oh …" Lin Mu Fan's high and mighty heart was finally at ease. It seemed that she had fallen asleep in a daze. She had been possessed by a nightmare and had gone crazy. She felt that she had been carried away without being able to see the Boss for even a second.

"Where's the emperor? Did you leave early? " Even though she knew this question was stupid, she still asked it. The Emperor knew that he would wake up in the middle of the night and ask her about it, so there was no need to ask.

But Xiao Lu still answered seriously, nodding her head. "His Imperial Majesty had already woken up in the fourth fragment of the night. Empress, please take a seat. I'll get someone else to bring some water for you to wash your face with."

Lin Mofan had cleaned her face with her help. Just as she was about to prepare breakfast, a little servant girl suddenly rushed in with a pale face and said, "Empress, it's bad. Senior An has passed away for some reason."

The chopsticks in Lin Mofan's hand quivered as he raised his head to look at her. By his side, Little Green berated in a low voice, "Little girl, you said such unlucky things to the Empress early in the morning. Why aren't you leaving?"

The little girl realized that it was not appropriate to say this now, so she quickly kneeled down, "Your servant deserves to die! "Please forgive me, esteemed lady." As she spoke, she began to retreat. However, Lin Mu Fan suddenly called out to her, "Wait!"

When the little girl stopped, Lin Mu Fan asked in surprise, "What did you say? Feudal Lord An … she passed away? "How could that be?" How could someone like Venerable An suddenly die? She was still fine last night, yet she was still fighting over the house with her. Did he die for some other reason? There must be something strange about this!

The little girl saw that Lin Mufan had taken the initiative to ask, so she lowered her head and said seriously, "Little sister Lu told me to bring that pot of Violet Orchid Grass from the Cloud Palace to the Jin He Palace. When I went there, I was stopped by two guards, and only after inquiring did I find out that Venerable An had passed away.

Lin Mu Fan was stunned for a moment before he stood up from his chair. With a grave expression, he said: "I'll go take a look."

"Empress, please wait." Green hurriedly pressed down on her body and comforted her in a low voice, "Empress, don't worry. We'll have to consider this further. This noble man An's death is really strange. If esteemed wangfei were to go, it would definitely arouse suspicion."

Lin Mu Fan thought about it for a while and agreed. Everyone knew that Venerable An died in Yun He Palace, so the first person they would suspect would be her. She decided to obediently stay in Jin He Palace and not meddle in other people's business.

After eating breakfast, he played with the Boss for a long time. However, he didn't see Long Zhaoting come over. In the past, he would come over to see her whenever he wanted to. And today … Perhaps it was at the Cloud Palace, after all, the sudden death of someone of noble status An Xianfeng left many suspicions, her death would definitely bring him trouble!

Lin Mofan had sent Little Green to the Cloud and the palace to check on the situation, but it still hadn't come back after a long time. This made her feel uneasy. Finally, Little Green returned. Lin Mufan handed the BOSS to Zhu'er, who impatiently stood up and asked, "How is it? Did you find out how Venerable An died? "What's the situation over there?"

Xiao Lu looked in the direction of Yun He Palace and spoke in a low voice, "Empress, it's a mess over there now. I heard that the imperial physician has already diagnosed it, but the maids there all say that Honorable An didn't have the tendency to commit suicide by taking poison. Presumably, he was killed by someone's poison, just that no one knows who was so vicious."

"This vicious person will soon become me, Lin Mu Chen." Lin Mu Fan chuckled coldly as he muttered to himself. If she wasn't wrong, this person definitely wanted to frame her.

"No way …" Little Green cried out, "Then isn't the Empress in danger?"

"Forget it, let her be. I am not afraid of insinuations." She had already put life and death on the line a long time ago and did not care if she was framed or not. In any case, she did not have a good life.

"Empress, don't think too badly of this matter. It might not be as you think." Little Green comforted her. Even though she was worried that the situation would be bad for her master, she still pretended to be open and cheerful to appease her.

Lin Mu Fan slightly nodded his head and did not speak again. Seeing that she did not wish to speak, Xiao Lu quietly retreated. She was left alone in the garden playing with the Boss. The children were said to be the fruits of an adult's happiness and only the Boss could make her happy.

As long as she saw him when he was learning, Lin Mufan would think of how he was always laughing and playing with her. She would suddenly miss him back then, even if she was tortured to death by Long Ze, she would be carefree and not have to worry about his safety, worried about the change in fate of her country!

It wasn't until lunchtime that Long Zhe arrived at Jinhe Palace, escorted by female servants and eunuchs. Lin Mofan was feeding the Boss when he arrived. In a moment of confusion, she raised her head and saw the indifferent expression on Long Ze's face. It was completely different from last night's gentleness!

Just by looking at this expression, she was able to guess what was going on in Long Zhaofeng's mind. As she had expected, the death of Venerable An wasn't a coincidence; there must be something strange going on.

"Your Majesty, you've come." Lin Mu Fan passed the Boss to Zhu'er, who was at the side, and signaled her to bring the child in.

Zhu'er picked up the Boss and left. In the past, she would hug the Boss or kiss his Dragon Pool. But today, she didn't express anything and only used her cold gaze to stare at Lin Mufan.

Lin Mu Fan couldn't stand his murderous gaze and his silent appearance. He calmly took the initiative to speak, "Your majesty, if you have anything to say, just say it. Mu Chen listens."

Longze walked over, grabbed her arm, and pulled her in front of him. There was a wounded and angry expression on his face. "Mu Chen, why are you like this? Didn't I already give you all the best things? Didn't I already promise that once the situation is settled, I will take you as my successor? Why did he have to kill a mere noble? What's the point of this? "

Lin Mofan's heart ached. He truly felt that she was the cause of Venerable An's death. The pain from her arm being grabbed was far from comparable to the pain he felt in his heart. She silently looked at him for a long time before saying with a bitter smile, "Does Your Majesty really believe that the death of Venerable An was caused by Mu Chen? Does the emperor think Mu Chen poisoned her out of jealousy? "

"Isn't it?" Long Zhaosu raised an eyebrow and asked, clearly seeing the disappointment in her eyes.

"The Emperor has been talking about how much he loves me. Is this your love from when the seas are dry and the rocks are rotten, to when the heavens are desolate and the earth is old? If I really do love, how can I, Lin Mu Chen, not know what kind of person I am? " He was disappointed, and so was she. So it turned out that in his eyes, she was such a malicious person, poisonous to the point that she could take someone's life at will.

"Not only do I know what kind of person you, Lin Mu Chen, are, but all my servants know about the concubines in the imperial harem." "From your previous ruthlessness and ruthlessness to the fact that you forced Venerable An into a corner yesterday, tell me, what kind of person are you?"

Long Zhaoting saw the indifference on her face and his heartache at her unrepentance. He hated even more how he clearly knew that she was such a vicious person. But she still loved him so dearly that he couldn't let her go no matter what. Was it really impossible without her? Had she turned into a pile of bones and blood and blended into his?

His words caused Lin Mufan to slightly suffocate and he was momentarily tongue-tied. He was at a loss for words.

That's right, the past Lin Mu Chen had many terrible histories. She and Long Ze knew very well that Lin Mu Chen had no choice but to do this after being coerced by Lin Xi. Yesterday, she had truly plotted against Venerable An and trapped him in a cold palace. It was normal for him to mistake her for that type of person, so no matter how he explained it, it was useless.

In fact, she had always been a quiet person. Only when others framed her would she retaliate. It was the same for Imperial Concubine Rong and Senior An. Otherwise, she wouldn't have the time to deal with those beautiful ladies.

"What is it? Can't you say anything more? " Long Ze sneered as he looked at her.

"Since the Emperor has already decided, Mu Chen has nothing else to say. Mu Chen can only beg the Emperor to allow me to go out and meet with my family before punishing them." Lin Mofan spoke in a sad voice and decided to no longer try to defend himself. It wouldn't be a bad thing if he continued to misunderstand and hate her. This way, she could feel a bit more at ease.
