Inside the hall, numerous civil and military officials gathered, awaiting his instructions. If he forgave Lin Muwen, his authority would be gone.

"Prince Mu left his post without permission and must serve three days of confinement. After his confinement, he will marry the general's daughter, Zhong Jinxin. There is no need to discuss this matter further!"

He pondered for a moment and realized that everyone in the dynasty had their own difficulties.

He not only has to protect his son, but also maintain the dignity of the royal family.

Lin Muwen was stunned. It seemed that the emperor was going to stand on the side of the royal family again.

"I understand."

"Come here, take him away. If he dares to talk nonsense again, don't blame me for being merciless."

Lin Muwen couldn't even finish the second half of the sentence. He would rather not be a prince because his last bit of reason told him that if he made a mistake, he would never see Mu Ruixi again.

In the back garden of the palace, Mu Ruixi slowly woke up. Her eyes were bright and she blinked her big eyes as she looked forward.

Wait, the vision becomes clear, but why is it so narrow?

She tried to stand up, but the girl stopped her again.

"I'll get you what you want."

Mu Ruixi was so arrogant, she must be looking at herself in the mirror. Maybe she wanted to go to the bathroom?

She yelled and brought a mirror. There were several people with her, and everyone was very familiar to her.

The Empress Dowager, the Empress, and all the concubines are here.

Perhaps because of this incident, the Queen Mother was particularly concerned about her. She sat down and reached out to touch her hand: "Good girl, you have worked hard."

Yesterday I was hiding far away, but today I was surrounded.

What was going on, and should she tell them she was the source of the infection and wait until they were ready before going over?

Mu Ruixi chose to remain silent. She was not sure if her eyes could still see.

His eyes still hurt, and he wondered if they had been removed.

"What happened to Prince Mu? He rushed into the palace because his eye was injured. Don't worry, it's just a little bleeding. The doctor is ready, he will be fine."

The Queen Mother spoke lightly, but she did not relax in her heart, because she had lost too much blood, and this was only a minor one.

Mu Ruixi wanted to drink some red dates to nourish qi and blood, preferably wolfberry, ginseng or the like.

"Do your eyes still hurt?" Mu Ruixi felt goose bumps all over her body because of the special care she received from the Queen Mother.

Just say whatever you want to say.

She was about to speak when her voice got stuck in her throat, so she chose to remain silent.

But she wondered, where was the Shepherd King? Why hadn't he come?

Seeing Mu Ruixi looking around, the smart concubines could guess what was going on.

The Queen sat down beside her and said, "Such a good daughter, she passed away so suddenly, and you are so anxious."

The Queen Mother took the opportunity to hold Mu Ruixi's hand and said, "I was planning to introduce you to some young talents, but now there is no one."

Mu Ruixi thought, this is said so clearly, where is Lin Muwen?

Since he cares about me, he should care about me.

"Do you want me to find a girl?"

The Queen Mother gave a wink, and a nimble eunuch brought Wan Qing over.

When Wan Qing saw Mu Ruixi injured, tears couldn't stop flowing down her face.

The queen said calmly: "Miss Su has chosen a good maid and has always wanted to follow you, but this is the palace and everything must be done according to the rules."

Mu Ruixi rubbed her right eye. When she spoke, there was no scar on her left cheek, but there was no scar on her right cheek either. Fortunately, it was just covered by the cloth.

"The imperial physician said that the best way to treat this kind of injury is to apply the smear alternately for three consecutive days, and it will heal."

Mu Ruixi nodded blankly.

"You stay in the palace for the next three days. I miss you very much." The Queen Mother sighed deeply, with worry flashing in her eyes.

Because her face was not looking good, she did not notice that when the servants, the queen, and the concubines had all left, only the two of them were left. Mu Ruixi was about to cry.

Lin Muwen, you bastard, you actually abandoned me to get married!

The Queen Mother kept her because she wanted to keep it a secret from her.

But Wanqing heard it and told her.

Not to mention hearing it, even she herself felt uneasy.

He must take the bride away!

She didn't want to do that. Under the royal halo, she finally found a caring pretty boy, but he was gone just like that.

Late at night, Mu Ruixi climbed up the palace wall but was caught.

The commander of the Imperial Guards saw Jun Wuxie's attire and didn't recognize her. This was the stunning Mu Ruixi. Her attire made people suspect she was a killer.

Mu Ruixi only took a glance and knew that the Marshal was planning to capture them under the cover of night and hand them over to the emperor for punishment, and she immediately burst into tears.

"Can't!"

The commander didn't expect that Mu Ruixi, who always presented herself as a goddess, would yell at him like that in the quiet night. His heart could hardly bear it.

He frowned slightly, and Mu Ruixi noticed that he had a very delicate appearance, so delicate that people would mistake him for a scholar.

"Why?" He looked at her, as if he would let her go as long as she gave him a reasonable explanation.

"This is rather troublesome. There are too many people involved, and it's hard to explain. General, can you please excuse me for a moment?"

The commander frowned, clearly unwilling to agree.

It was late at night, and even if the two people were not commanders, the reputation of the Mu family would be affected.

She used one eye to observe the commander's movements. She acted coquettishly for a long time, but he didn't give in at all, so she simply used her strongest method.

"I've been looking for you for a long time."

The commander frowned and put on an attitude of, "I'll obey your orders, please."

"Today, the Queen said she wanted to find a matchmaker for me, and it seems the general is one of them."

"Impossible!" He suddenly widened his eyes.

"Whether it's possible or not is not our turn to decide. You don't like me, and I'm also a source of gossip. If the Marshal is willing to let them pass today, I will report to the Empress Dowager tomorrow."

"Speak?" The commander frowned. He felt that there was something wrong with this girl's mind. "Miss Su, did you misunderstand me?"

Compared to Mu Ruixi's whispers, his words were even more heart-pounding. In the darkness of the night, the voice was particularly clear.

Mu Ruixi didn't expect that he would see through her little thoughts so quickly. Seeing that she was of good age and good looks, it stood to reason that he would marry someone else instead of her. If he was already married, she could still act like a spoiled child in front of her grandmother.

She looked at the commander with her round eyes, and the commander raised his handsome eyebrows: "I agree, we can do it privately."
