Xiao Shunzi was already sweating profusely from listening, but it was obvious that Mu Haolin had no intention to stop at all, and on the contrary, was talking non-stop with him. Xiao Shunzi could finally understand it, what Mu Haolin meant was that the Ninth Prince that he recognized was actually Mu Haolin's illegitimate child, not the child of First Emperor.

However, Mu Haolin and his sister-in-law had a forbidding period of love, and these were all things that could not be tolerated in the world. No matter how unwise Xiao Shunzi was, he knew how important these things were, and immediately felt that his life was about to end.

"Xiao Shunzi, I let Ling Er down. I really did not think that Ling Er would actually commit suicide so decisively, I can't do anything now. Other than Ye Fan, do I have any other opportunities to make up for it?"

Mu Haolin didn't even need to use our name anymore. Xiao Shunzi became even more afraid, "Your majesty, don't be so agitated, it won't be, if First Emperor is still here, he definitely won't blame you for it. But didn't you acknowledge Ninth Prince back?

"Return to normal?" However, Mu Haolin acted as if he had suddenly heard something inconceivable, and smiled. He looked at Xiao Shunzi and said, "We really didn't misjudge you, Xiao Shunzi, you are the one who possesses wisdom."

Xiao Shunzi didn't know what Mu Haolin meant by that. However, he didn't know that Mu Haolin had completely heard Xiao Shunzi's words before they returned to the right path. If he did something wrong, he had to make up for it.

On the second day at court, Mu Haolin suddenly mentioned about the establishment of the crown prince, causing all the officials to be unable to comprehend it. Initially, they had thought that Mu Haolin's intention was to completely define Mu Beiche's identity, but they did not know that the person Mu Haolin wanted to establish was actually Mu Yefan.

Who was Mu Yefan, although he was a real Ninth Prince, he was a Ninth Prince, and was not Mu Haolin's child at all. Furthermore, Mu Beiche was already recognized by many officials as a candidate to be the crown prince.

So Mu Haolin's suggestion attracted a large majority of people's objections, even the prime minister and the old officials like Song Xuan Wang were unanimously opposed, only the General Meng did not object, and neither was in favour. Mu Haolin's expression had always been gloomy, but in the end, he did not continue speaking, but the matter of the crown prince being established was still put on hold like that.

Mu Haolin suddenly announced it's Mu Yefan. After the incident with Mu Yefan, he caught a cold and was never able to recover, so his face was especially pale. Mu Haolin looked at Mu Yefan and asked, "Ye Fan, are you sick?

"To return to royal father, childrens has not been able to sleep well lately, and there's nothing else."

This call to royal father made Mu Haolin feel all sorts of emotions, he did not know what to say to express his feelings, and only probingly asked: "Ye Fan, do you still remember your Royal Grandmother?"

Royal Grandmother? Mu Yefan frowned slightly. He did indeed remember this Royal Grandmother, which was also the current Empress Dowager. Back then, the person he liked the most was her Royal Grandmother, and every time he arrived at his bedchamber s, this Royal Grandmother would wish she could give everything she had to eat.

Seeing that Mu Yefan's expression was very gentle, Mu Haolin relaxed his emotions, "Your Royal Grandmother has always hated you, blaming me for losing you all those years ago. Now that you have returned, your Royal Grandmother really wants to meet you. Can you go see your Royal Grandmother?

Mu Yefan naturally would not reject his request. Could it be that the old man really only had one Royal Grandmother left? Although Mu Yefan was still in the palace now, he felt like it had been a whole lifetime.

"royal father, childrens knows. When can childrens go pay a visit to Royal Grandmother?"

"Ye Fan, it's good as long as you're willing, then go now. Xiao Shunzi, quickly go inform them that I'm bringing Ye Fan to see the empress dowager."

Mu Yefan followed behind Mu Haolin and continued to listen to him chattering, "Your Royal Grandmother liked you the most back then, saying that you were born and were fated to meet her. When she saw you, she laughed, and she could not stop laughing, even your Royal Grandmother gave you her name. At that time, there were even people who disagreed, saying that it's not good if you were to be born, your Royal Grandmother said that you could easily have the happiness of an ordinary person in the future."

Mu Yefan did not say anything, but Mu Haolin did not mind. His expression was exaggerated, as if he had fallen into his memories. Although Mu Yefan felt that something was wrong with Mu Haolin, he did not know what was wrong, but in the end, he did not say anything.

Your Royal Grandmother said, you are a good child, she has always missed you, I have no other choice, many things I clearly knew that we were wrong back then, but we still managed to do it. Ye Fan, you must accompany your Royal Grandmother properly this time, so that she can be happy, and can properly treat your illness, okay?

Mu Yefan nodded, "childrens understands."

"Alright, good child." Mu Haolin was very pleased.

Mu Yefan actually remembered Royal Grandmother's appearance back then. He really didn't expect that the very old woman lying on the bed right now was her own Royal Grandmother, but that kind of true feeling couldn't be hidden. The moment Mu Yefan saw the empress dowager, he actually felt his nose sour.

"childrens greets Mother. Mother, look. Who did I bring over to you?" Mu Haolin happily pushed Mu Yefan forward, causing his face to turn pale white, but the corners of his eyes to turn red. Actually, Mu Yefan also missed his family a lot, it was just that he had not been able to find an outlet to vent his feelings.

"Ye Fan greets Royal Grandmother."

"You're Ye Fan?" When Mu Yefan saw the empress dowager's trembling hand, he, who was originally kneeling, immediately stood up and grabbed the Royal Grandmother's hand. "It's me, it's Ye Fan."

"That's great, Ye Fan. Royal Grandmother has thought of you for so many years, and you're still living in this world. That's great."

"Royal Grandmother, please calm down. Let's sit down and talk, okay?"

The empress dowager nodded, then looked up at Mu Haolin and said, "Your majesty, I have some words that I wish to say to Ye Fan in private. You may leave first."

Mu Haolin was not angry at all, he nodded his head and turned, the threat of the empress dowager still remained. With a wave of her hand, all of the female servants and eunuchs left the room, leaving only the empress dowager and Mu Yefan behind.

The empress dowager's eyes were filled with pain as she looked at Mu Yefan, and in the end, she extended her hand and caressed Mu Yefan's hair and asked, "Ye Fan, to be honest with Royal Grandmother, have you lived a difficult life all these years?"

Mu Yefan laughed, although his eyes were red, he had already controlled his emotions, "It's not hard, all these years Ye Fan had actually lost his memory, if not Ye Fan would have come to Royal Grandmother long ago."

Although the empress dowager had doubts in her eyes, she knew that there was nothing that could be done in a day and night. As for the fact that Mu Yefan had lived so many years without being asked, it was definitely not good.

Royal Grandmother knows that Ye Fan has always cared about Royal Grandmother, and it's good that he's back now. When he returns, he can tell Royal Grandmother about his plans, and no matter what you want to do, Royal Grandmother will definitely help you.

Mu Yefan knew that the empress dowager's words meant something, but he really didn't want to involve Royal Grandmother in what he had to do, so he shook his head in the end, "Ye Fan thanks Royal Grandmother, so he can rest assured. Ye Fan knows what to do very well."

The empress dowager nodded, as if she was relieved, but also discouraged. Mu Yefan continued, "However, Ye Fan heard that Royal Grandmother hasn't been feeling very well lately, and has yet to see the imperial physician. Ye Fan is very worried."

"The Emperor told you."

Although was his enemy, Mu Yefan could still tell that Mu Haolin was very concerned about the empress dowager, "Right, Royal Grandmother, you must take care of your health. Do you want Ye Fan to call a doctor for you right now?"

"No need, Ye Fan. Grandmother knows her body, so there's nothing that can be done about all those imperial doctors. Grandmother is already so old, so why do you think we need to make things difficult for those people?"

"Are you sick, grandmother, that couldn't be cured?" Mu Yefan was a little anxious, but it went without saying that the expression in the empress dowager's eyes could already be seen. Sometimes, it wasn't that the empress dowager didn't want to treat him, but that the imperial physicians really didn't have any other choice.

Mu Yefan suddenly thought of someone, someone who made her heart ache just by thinking about it. The empress dowager thought that Mu Yefan was sad because of his illness, "Ye Fan, life and death are determined by fate, Royal Grandmother is only an ordinary person, so life and death must always come for him."

"No, Royal Grandmother. Ye Fan might know someone who can cure your illness. Would you be willing to let my friend have a try?"

Looking at Mu Yefan's cautious appearance, the empress dowager suddenly asked with a smile, "Ye Fan is so nervous, could this friend of yours be a girl? Mu Yefan's face was a little flushed. Maybe it was because Royal Grandmother had seen through her thoughts, or maybe it was because Mu Yefan himself didn't want to think of this matter, so he became angry for a moment, "This lady is very powerful. He was the one who cured the smallpox earlier, so I wanted to let Grandmother have a try."

"Since Ye Fan has already said so, let's invite this girl in and give her a try. But no matter what the result is, you don't have to be sad. Promise Grandmother. Grandmother only has one wish right now, and that is for you, Ye Fan, to be able to live a good life like any ordinary person, just like the name I've given you."

"Grandson promises Grandmother, but I still have to give it a try."

Mu Yefan and the empress dowager's conversation went smoothly. When Mu Haolin found out that Mu Yefan wanted to invite Bai Yixuan to the empress dowager for treatment, he did not reject her invitation. He only nodded his head and allowed Mu Yefan to invite him in.

Originally, after every period, the person who took the initiative would have the hardest time of it all. Mu Yefan already did not know how he resolved his feelings that day, in short, everything gave him an illusion that he had already stopped. However, he knew that if he went to find Bai Yixuan for this kind of thing, she would definitely not reject him.
