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

At this moment, Lin Mushen was like an ant on a hot pan, pacing back and forth outside the palace. Occasionally, he stopped and looked at the closed palace gate with a frown, his heart full of anxiety and uneasiness.

The ministers kneeling outside the palace gate were equally anxious. Their faces were solemn and beads of sweat the size of beans kept rolling down their foreheads.

They really couldn't understand why the emperor had not attended court for several days.

You know, the mountains of official business are all eagerly waiting for the emperor to come and make a decision personally!

However, at this moment, no one knew that the emperor was dying and in danger.

Inside the hall, Imperial Physician Zhou stood beside the bed, his hands tightly grasping the corners of his clothes. Sweat had already soaked his back, leaving dark marks on his clothes.

Time passed minute by minute, and a whole hour had passed, but the emperor lying on the bed still had his eyes closed, with no sign of waking up.

Imperial Physician Zhou secretly groaned in his heart, fearing that the news that the Emperor had fallen into a coma could no longer be concealed.

But given the current situation, how should I explain this to all the civil and military officials in the court?

Why did the emperor get poisoned?

What's worse is that besides myself, Prince Yu is the only one present in the hall at this moment. If someone deliberately framed me, I would be unable to explain myself!

Thinking of this, Imperial Physician Zhou couldn't help but secretly glance at Prince Yu, Lin Muheng, who was standing beside him.

Lin Muheng also frowned, lowered his head and thought silently.

After a long while, he finally stood up as if he had made up his mind, and said to Eunuch Wang who was guarding the door tightly: "Eunuch Wang, let all the ministers outside come in."

Wang Defu was stunned at first, then his face showed joy, thinking that maybe the emperor had recovered and woken up?

So he hurriedly responded, walked quickly to the door, stretched out his hand and pulled open the heavy palace door.

As soon as the door opened, Lin Mushen, who was waiting outside, could not wait to rush into the hall first, shouting: "Father! What happened to you?" His face showed a miserable look of grief and tears.

But if you look closely, you can see that the slightly upturned corners of his mouth are revealing a subtle joy that is hard to conceal. God is really helping me!

Lin Mushen was secretly delighted. His father suddenly fell into a coma, and Prince Yu was the only one accompanying him in the palace.

In this case, many people will certainly have doubts and suspect that this matter is related to Prince Yu. By then... Humph, let's see how Lin Muheng proves his innocence!

Ministers poured into the palace like a tide. They walked hurriedly, looking nervous and anxious.

When their eyes fell on Imperial Physician Zhou, who had a dejected look on his face and seemed to have lost all his life, everyone's heart couldn't help but tremble violently and they froze in place for a moment.

An ominous premonition quickly enveloped everyone's heart like a dark cloud.

The feeling was so strong that everyone present couldn't help but gasp.

"Your Majesty!" Someone was the first to cry out, his voice trembling and full of fear.

This shout was like a thunderclap, breaking the originally solemn and depressing atmosphere. Everyone suddenly became furious and started shouting in panic.

The emperor is unconscious!

It's unbelievable.

You know, it’s only been three days since we last met, how could the emperor suddenly become so seriously ill, even to the point of his life hanging by a thread?

Lin Mushen was even more grief-stricken. He burst into tears and cried heartbreakingly: "Father, what happened to you? How come you have become like this after just three days of not seeing you? Who is so cruel as to dare to poison you? Fifth brother, please tell us quickly. You are the only one who knows the inside story of Father's illness. Please tell us what happened?"

As Lin Mushen cried bitterly, everyone's eyes turned to Lin Muheng who was silent beside him.

The emperor at this moment was still as energetic and radiant as he was a few days ago, but now he was lying unconscious on the dragon bed, his life or death uncertain.

This huge contrast is really hard to accept. Could it be... that it was really done by Prince Yu?

However, facing everyone's questioning eyes, Lin Muheng just stood there quietly, looking expressionlessly at Lin Mushen who was performing hard.

He knew very well that if a person was too complacent, he would often unconsciously expose his flaws and weaknesses.

Then, he opened his lips slightly with a solemn expression and spoke slowly, "Second brother, why are you so sure that father must have been poisoned?"

Hearing this, Lin Mushen was stunned and thought to himself that something was wrong. He had been careless for a moment!

How could he just say it without thinking and without restraint?

However, how could he let go of such a great opportunity to frame Lin Muheng?

Thinking of this, Lin Mushen quickly came back to his senses, and then retorted without hesitation: "Father suddenly fell into a coma. If it wasn't poisoning, what else could have caused it?"

He widened his eyes and looked straight at the other person, trying to suppress Lin Muheng with this tough attitude.

Faced with Lin Mushen's aggressive questioning, Lin Muheng did not back down even a step.

He snorted coldly and asked sternly, "Is poisoning the only possible reason for a sudden coma? Maybe Father has some kind of acute illness! Second brother, I want to ask, have you known about Father's poisoning?"

Lin Mushen then realized as if waking up from a dream that Lin Muheng had been cleverly setting traps, trying to trick him into saying more words that were unfavorable to him.

He was furious and pointed at Lin Muheng and shouted, "Fifth brother, what do you mean by this? Do you think that you can escape the blame by deliberately shifting the focus of the topic to me?"

"What crime have I committed?" Lin Muheng became even more furious upon hearing this. His eyes widened and he roared in anger.

Just as the two men were on the verge of a fight, Ye Jinhu, who was standing by, saw that the situation was becoming increasingly tense and was about to explode, and hurriedly shouted, "What on earth do you two want to do? The emperor is still unconscious and in danger. The most urgent thing should be to find a way to save him as soon as possible, instead of arguing endlessly here!"
