He Yue soothed him, "Okay, don't get excited. Since you like him so much, you should go after him boldly! Why hurt yourself?"

Guo Yulan burst into tears. "He doesn't like me."

He Yue gently wiped away her tears. "Did he tell you in person?"

Guo Yulan sobbed and said, "Does he even need to tell me this? He was so gentle and kind to me in the first few days, but ever since he saw you, he's ignored me. The way he looks at you... is filled with uncontrollable love."

He Yue advised, "It seems that you really like him, you know? When a person cares about another person, he will become particularly sensitive, overthinking, and magnifying what he sees several times to remind himself, and finally lose his mind and become like a madman."

Guo Yulan fell silent. He Yue asked, "Let me ask you, do you feel uncomfortable whenever another girl talks to him? Do you think he doesn't like you anymore, or that another girl seduced him? It might even make you lose control and end up doing something wrong."

Guo Yulan looked at He Yue and asked, "Is it wrong for me to care about him?"

He Yue said, "You care about someone a lot, right? Love is inherently selfish, and the one you love deeply is the one who gets hurt the most. You misunderstood that day, and your anger drove you crazy. You hit me without knowing right or wrong. Do you know how terrifying you looked at that time? Even scarier than Pei Lan who held me hostage that night."

"Your bad mood also changed King Shu's mood, so he beat you. In your extreme anger, you only believed in your own thoughts."

"That's why you feel increasingly uncomfortable, and no matter how you vent, you can't stop the pain, and you end up uncontrollably harming yourself."

Guo Yulan stared at He Yue blankly. "How do you know? Am I really overthinking it?"

He Yue held Guo Yulan's hand and said, "Lan'er, love should make people feel happy and joyful. You like him, he likes you, and a love that goes both ways is worth loving, do you understand?"

Guo Yulan said disappointedly again, "But I still like him and can't let him go."

He Yue thought for a moment and said, "Then just openly like her! Go after her! As long as you've tried your best and haven't left any regrets in your pursuit, be bolder. Don't always hide and guess. Love bravely. Only the spirit of courage and fearlessness of failure is the most attractive."

Guo Yulan thought about it and felt that what He Yue said made sense. She thought of the time when she met Mu Nanfeng.

Isn't it because I'm brave, cheerful and casual that he likes me?

But later on, as we got along, I was always worried about this and afraid of that, which made me sensitive, suspicious, and unconfident.

I feel that I am disgusting and it is difficult for others to like me.

Guo Yulan looked at He Yue and cried. She hugged He Yue and said, "Yue'er, I'm sorry. I hit you that day. I'm sorry."

He Yue smiled and said, "It's all over. It doesn't hurt anymore. I also know that you weren't the real you back then. How could I blame you?"

Guo Yulan burst into laughter and said, "Yue'er, you are so kind, but I..."

He Yue covered Guo Yulan's mouth and said, "I've already said it, let the past be the past. My good sister Lan'er is finally back."

Lu He came in with the food and saw the two crying, laughing and hugging each other, so she smiled as well, "Miss He, Doctor, come and eat."

He Yue helped Guo Yulan get out of bed. "You must be hungry! Let's go eat something, but don't eat too much!"

Lu He smiled and said, "The young lady is finally well. This is the young lady I know. The young lady from the past two days scared me."

Lu He looked at He Yue and asked, "Sister He Yue, do you think the young lady from the past two days was possessed by an evil spirit?"

Guo Yulan and He Yue looked at each other and smiled. He Yue said, "Probably! Fortunately, your young lady is back."

The three of them seemed to have returned to the past. He Yue accompanied Guo Yulan for dinner and then sang and danced with her until dark before leaving.

In the Yudu Palace, Queen Pei learned that all the evidence pointed to her, and her nephew had also been brought back.

Queen Pei made up her mind and poisoned Emperor Yu with a bowl of soup. Emperor Yu then sent the Dragon Guard to Mu Han.

Now half of the people inside and outside the palace are Queen Pei's people, and the other half are Mu Nanfeng's people.

Only a few people remained neutral, and Mu Nanfeng and the others were catching up and were not far behind Mu Han.

When Mu Han just arrived outside the city gate, he heard the death knell. When he hurried into the palace, Mu Nanfeng and others also arrived outside the city gate.

But the people at the city gate were all Queen Pei's men, so they naturally stopped Mu Nanfeng and the others.

Only when the news of His Majesty's death spread outside the palace were Mu Nanfeng and others able to enter the palace.

Mu Han sped all the way and finally arrived at Emperor Yu's bedroom, panting.

Mu Han staggered into the bedroom and saw Emperor Yu lying quietly on the bed, his face as pale as paper.

He stood blankly by the bed, tears rolling down his face uncontrollably.

Empress Pei slowly approached from behind, looking incredibly sad, as if she were actually weeping for Emperor Yu. A flicker of anger flashed in Mu Han's eyes. He glared at Empress Pei and demanded, "Mother, what on earth is going on? Why did our father suddenly pass away?"

Empress Pei burst into tears and said in a mournful tone, "Prince, I don't know either. When I came here an hour ago, His Majesty had already passed away..."

Mu Han was filled with suspicion, but at this moment, he had no solid evidence. He decided to investigate the matter secretly. So, suppressing his grief, he ordered the palace to be sealed off, forbidding anyone from entering or leaving.

Then, he called his confidants and ordered them to secretly monitor Queen Pei's every move and not miss any clues.

At the same time, Mu Nanfeng was also shocked by the emperor's sudden death. He was determined to find out the truth and not let Empress Pei's family dominate.

Empress Pei had already arranged the people, even Henglu, the chief eunuch beside Emperor Yu, was bribed by Empress Pei.

Empress Pei gave a look, and the eunuch chief Henglu's shrill voice sounded, "Your Highness the Crown Prince, the emperor passed away suddenly, and this old servant is also heartbroken. The most urgent task now is to hold a funeral for the late emperor and stabilize the court. Your Highness, please accept my condolences and do not disappoint the late emperor's expectations." Henglu said while secretly observing Mu Nanfeng's reaction.

Mu Nanfeng sneered inwardly. This old fellow was indeed Empress Pei's lackey. He remained calm on the surface and said calmly, "Eunuch Heng, did His Majesty leave behind any edict?"

Eunuch Heng pulled out a bright yellow scroll of imperial edict from under His Majesty's pillow and said loudly, "The late Emperor has issued an order."

Eunuch Heng unfolded the imperial edict and read aloud, "By the will of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims: Knowing my time is short, I hereby appoint Crown Prince Mu Han as the new Emperor. Empress Pei will assist me in all government affairs. All ministers must obey my orders and not disobey. Anyone who disobeys will be considered a traitor and their entire clan will be exterminated."
