Raising a concubine under her nose, the reborn mistress marries the prince

Emperor Rong Sheng slightly raised his heavy eyelids and said weakly, "You are here."

Lin Muheng, who was standing aside, had a worried look on his face, his eyes fixed on Emperor Rong Sheng.

However, after just a few days of not seeing each other, the person in front of me has become so thin that he seems like he will fall down if the wind blows.

"Your son will go call the imperial physician!" Lin Muheng was extremely anxious and turned around to walk out.

There was only Eunuch Wang serving in the palace.

"Come back!" Emperor Rong Sheng shouted suddenly. Although his voice was not loud, it carried unquestionable majesty.

Hearing this shout, Lin Muheng hurriedly stopped, turned around, and said anxiously: "Father, you must let the imperial physician take a look at you now!"

As he spoke, Lin Muheng turned his gaze to Wang Defu who was standing beside him and asked, "Eunuch, why haven't you called the imperial physician yet?"

Faced with Lin Muheng's questioning, Wang Defu looked embarrassed and complained in his heart.

How could he dare to call the imperial physician on his own? If he disobeyed the emperor's order, he would lose his head.

Thinking of this, Wang Defu quickly knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "Your Highness, please calm down. I am just following your orders."

Seeing this, Lin Muheng understood what was going on. He turned to look at Emperor Rong Sheng and asked in confusion, "Father, why are you so afraid of the imperial physician?"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Rong Sheng roared in anger, "I am afraid of the imperial physician? Believe it or not, I will immediately order the beheading of the imperial physician's entire family!"

Lin Muheng stared at the emperor with a sharp gaze.

Without hesitation, he exposed the other party's carefully woven lie: "Father, you are not afraid of the imperial physician, but you are afraid of the bitter bowl of medicine, and you are even more worried that someone will put a deadly poison in it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Emperor Rong Sheng's face flushed instantly, as if a deep-hidden secret had been revealed on the spot.

Indeed, at this moment, he was not only afraid to drink medicine, he even dared not drink ordinary water easily, just because he was filled with fear of poisoning in his heart.

"May I ask, Father, how long has it been since I last had a proper meal?" Lin Muheng asked with concern.

Wang Defu, who was standing nearby, saw this and carefully lowered his voice and replied, "Your Highness, the Emperor has not eaten for three days."

Hearing this, Lin Muheng's heart was shocked, and his face was full of astonishment. How could his body bear not having eaten for three days?

If this continues, the consequences will be disastrous.

He bent his legs, knelt on the ground with a thud, and began to advise sincerely, "Father, I know you are worried that someone will take the opportunity to harm you. But if you continue to not eat or drink, your health will definitely get worse. I am willing to personally test the medicine for you to ensure your safety. Please agree!"

Emperor Rong Sheng stared at his son who was kneeling on the ground begging for mercy, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings.

Let Lin Muheng test the medicine for you?

To be honest, deep down in his heart, the supreme emperor has not yet given his son 100% trust.

After all, being in this palace as deep as the sea, where people's hearts are unpredictable and power struggles are intertwined, how can he easily see what Lin Muheng is really thinking?

How could he be sure that Lin Muheng was clearly aware of the dangerous situation he was in?

Is this initiative to volunteer to try the drug an act of sincerity and filial piety, or is it an attempt to cover up the hidden conspiracy behind it, or even a deliberate act of pretending to be innocent and playing the thief crying "stop thief"?

For a moment, Rong Shengdi's deep and sharp eyes stared at Lin Muheng in front of him, as if he wanted to see through his calm appearance and see through his inner world.

However, Lin Muheng looked back at Rong Shengdi without fear. The two of them just stared at each other silently, and the air was filled with a tense and depressing atmosphere.

As time passed, both sides were caught in this silent contest.

In the end, it was Emperor Rong Sheng who broke the deadlock first. He sighed slightly and was defeated helplessly.

"Go and serve the meal!" He waved his hand a little tiredly and instructed the servant beside him.

Since Lin Muheng is so determined to try the poison, let's just give him a chance to prove himself.

In fact, Emperor Rong Sheng himself had reached the limit of his patience. These days, fearing that the food might be poisoned, every time he opened his mouth to eat was like a test of life and death, torturing his nerves and body all the time.

At this moment, he had really reached his limit and could no longer hold on.

Full of anxiety and uneasiness, he could only place all his hopes on Lin Muheng, praying that he could find the person who harmed him.

Or find a terrifying poison that would bring him some comfort and peace.

Wang Defu did not dare to delay for even a second and hurried forward to serve the meal.

I secretly rejoiced in my heart, thank God, the emperor finally figured it out!

Eunuch Wang has been really scared these days.

He stood in front of the dragon bed, looking anxious, and kept muttering: "Your Majesty, please eat something or drink some water!"

But the emperor was like a wooden sculpture, with his eyes closed, turning a deaf ear to his advice.

Not only that, the emperor even stopped attending the morning court, which caused an uproar in the court.

Every morning, a group of worried ministers would gather outside the palace.

They looked at each other, their faces full of anxiety and confusion. No one knew what had caused the emperor to become so abnormal.

Your Majesty, is not worried that this will cause the state affairs to be neglected, the country to fall into chaos, and the people to suffer, as he has suspended court for no reason?

However, no matter how much the ministers begged, the emperor always kept the palace doors closed and refused to show up, as if he wanted to completely isolate himself from the outside world.

Just when everyone was at a loss, Prince Yu finally came to the palace today.

This matter was originally caused by Prince Yu. Perhaps only he can untie the knot in the emperor's heart.

Lin Muheng couldn't understand why the emperor was so worried about his life and death.

These days, he has been sending people to secretly monitor Prince Jin, thinking that all the troubles are caused by Prince Jin.

Could it be that I have got the wrong idea, and the one who really wanted to murder my father was not Prince Jin, but someone else?

At the same time, Imperial Physician Zhou, who had been waiting outside the palace, finally got permission to enter the palace.

During these few days, he was on pins and needles, and waited outside the palace in fear all day long.

However, the emperor never allowed him to get close to him, and he didn't even look at the medicine he prescribed, let alone take it.

Imperial Physician Zhou entered the hall, glanced at the emperor, and almost dropped the medicine box in his hand.

What's going on, Your Majesty?
