As soon as these words came out, Mu Canglin's expression immediately changed.
He stared at Concubine Zhuang coldly, his eyes filled with coldness.
Concubine Zhuang seemed not to see the coldness in his eyes. She acted like a loving mother and said softly: "Lin'er, I'm afraid that the mission of mother concubine will not be fulfilled! Next, you must do your best. Fulfill your father’s last wish!”
"Now, you still want to harm me!" Mu Canglin was really completely disappointed in her. Concubine Zhuang was about to die, but she still wanted to drag him into the water.
When Concubine Zhuang heard this, she looked at him with misty eyes and cried softly: "Only you and me, mother and son, know this secret. Concubine Zhuang will never let this secret leak out!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Concubine Zhuang suddenly pulled out the dagger and stabbed herself in the heart.
Mu Canglin subconsciously took two steps forward, but he also knew that it was too late.
How could his father really allow mother and son to chat alone.
Especially after Concubine Zhuang said such crazy words, the emperor became even more suspicious of them.
Nowadays, there are also hidden guards guarding the area outside.
Within the range that Mu Canglin could sense, those secret guards must have heard their conversation clearly.
He could even imagine the violent storm that would greet him when he walked out of this room.
After looking at Concubine Zhuang's body for the last time, Mu Canglin let out a wry smile, turned around and walked out.
In this world, there really are mothers who will do everything possible to hope that their children will die!
After leaving the room, Mu Canglin looked at the scorching sun above his head and felt cold all over his body.
Soon, the prince and his father-in-law beside the emperor were seen walking over.
"His Royal Highness the King of Zhenbei, the Emperor has invited you!"
Mu Canglin nodded and said quietly: "My mother and concubine committed suicide. Please send someone to deal with it, please."
There was no sign of surprise on Eunuch Wang's face, and he just said softly: "Your Majesty, in consideration of old friendship, still buried Concubine Zhuang with the honors of a royal concubine. Please express your condolences!"
"Well, thank you so much, father-in-law." After Mu Canglin finished speaking, he strode away.
The emperor did this not to care about old feelings.
It's because he cares about face very much and doesn't want what happened that day to be known to the world.
He treated Concubine Zhuang favorably. From the outside, Concubine Zhuang's words that day had been proven to be false.
In this way, everyone in the world may be able to stop talking.
Mu Canglin was almost ready to die. He looked at Luo Yu beside him and said softly: "Go back and tell the princess that you don't have to wait for me to eat today."
Luo Yu is smart and can naturally understand what he means.
He glanced at Mu Canglin sadly, ready to resign.
But at this time, the prince smiled lightly and said: "How can the prince do it without someone to serve him personally? As for the princess, I will send someone over to inform the princess. The prince does not need to worry."
"Well, I'm sorry." Mu Canglin didn't say anything more.
He thought that Yun Jiutang was also a talent after all.
Even if the emperor was afraid, he would not abandon her easily.
At least she was safe after he left!
No matter what happens, there are still spirit tribes, they will not watch her die!
Thinking of this, Mu Canglin sighed, cheered up, and went to the Nourishing Heart Hall.
When he saw the emperor, he did not see the cold face he expected.
Just when Mu Canglin felt strange, he saw Mu Mingchao and Mu Anli also walking out.
"Second brother, you're here!" Mu Mingchao looked still smiling, as if the events of the past few days had not had any impact on him.
On the contrary, Mu Anli, who was usually noisy, was much quieter at this time, and seemed to be very preoccupied.
The emperor said with a smile: "Today is our family banquet, you don't have to be formal! Speaking of which, I haven't had a meal with you for a long time!"
He seemed to have no regrets about what happened before.
When he saw Mu Anli, the emperor did not forget to comfort him: "Li'er! You don't need to be too sad! You don't know about the evil that your mother and concubine did!
Naturally, I will not take my anger out on you! I have only a few heirs, and now I only have a few of you left. I have high hopes for you! "
His words did not appease them.
However, Mu Anli's mood improved visibly.
"Father, am I still your most beloved daughter?" Mu Anli asked.
"Of course! You will always be my father's most beloved daughter!" The emperor said with a smile. Mu Anli immediately smiled happily and threw herself into his arms to act coquettishly.
The emperor laughed heartily as always and reached out to stroke her hair, like a loving father.
After all this laughter, several people took their seats.
The family banquet has begun, and everyone is apparently enjoying themselves.
The emperor even told many interesting things about their childhood, and Mu Anli smiled especially happily.
Naturally, they also drank wine at the banquet, but after drinking those few glasses of wine, several of them became drunk.
Later, Mu Canglin was so drunk that he fell unconscious.
Seeing the three children lying on the table, the smile on the emperor's face instantly faded.
"Your Majesty..." Wang Gonggong came over respectfully, carrying water.
The emperor sighed and said softly: "Wang Defa, tell me, are they...forget it, I can't do anything for you! Let's see the result!"
Afterwards, the emperor took the blood and examined them one by one...
By the time Mu Canglin returned home, it was already evening.
When he was helped back by Luo Yu, Yun Jiutang also came out to greet him.
"Princess, forgive me! The emperor held a family banquet today. His Royal Highness the King of Zhenbei was so drunk that he was drunk for several hours. Now that he has sobered up, the old slave sent him back!" Wang Defa said with a smile, "I want more. Excuse me, Princess, and take good care of the Prince. I will go back to the palace to resume my life first!"
Yun Jiutang thanked him, and then Wang Defa left.
At this time, Mu Canglin's state didn't seem too sober.
"Tangtang..." He called her, his voice was very nasal and long, it sounded a little soft, very different from his usual cold tone.
"Yes." Yun Jiutang responded, and just as he was about to support him, he was suddenly hugged by her.
Suddenly, the weight of his entire body came down, and Yun Jiutang almost couldn't support it.
"Tangtang, I'm a little dizzy." Mu Canlin said hoarsely, "Give me a hug."
"Tsk! You... are all watching! Wake up! Let me go!" Yun Jiutang glanced at the servants around him subconsciously, and they quickly looked away knowingly.
"Don't let go! Let go and you'll fly away." Mu Canglin hugged her tighter, acting like a fool.
"Okay, okay! Let me help you lie down in the house first." Yun Jiutang had no choice but to support him and waved to Luo Yu.
As soon as he stretched out his hand, Mu Canglin opened his hand and grabbed it.
Then, he forcefully squeezed five fingers into her fingers and interlocked with hers.
"This way, Tangtang won't fly away."
Yun Jiutang, "..."
How childish!
She smiled helplessly, and then said coaxingly: "Okay, okay! Don't fly away! Let's go back to the house, okay?"
Mu Canglin finally agreed to follow her into the house. No one was allowed to support her along the way, and the two of them staggered into the inner room.
The next moment, Yun Jiutang was thrown heavily onto the bed by him.
"Tsk! Get up!"
Mu Canglin acted shamelessly again, but she had no choice but to ask everyone else to leave.
The servants exchanged glances with each other and withdrew their smiles.
But at this time, Mu Canglin, who was still dazed and stunned just now, suddenly regained his clarity.
He raised his hand and put it between Yun Jiutang's lips, with a solemn look on his face, making a silent gesture.
