"Prince Jin?" Lin Muheng couldn't help but blurt out, and the figure of that man instantly appeared in his mind.

He never expected that the first person he thought of would be King Jin.

"Whoever benefits will be the most suspicious." Jiang Chuwei on the side calmly analyzed the current situation.

"Yes! It hasn't been long since Lin Mupo's rebellion. Can't you hold back so soon, brother?"

Lin Muheng frowned, his heart full of confusion and worry.

Although they also had ambitions to compete for the throne, they had never thought of using such despicable means to murder their own father.

"For now, we can only wait and see what happens. We can make further plans after we have a clear understanding of the situation."

Jiang Chuwei's tone was extremely firm. She knew very well that acting impulsively at this moment would only make things worse.

Lin Muheng deeply agreed with Jiang Chuwei's words. Before the enemies hiding in the dark revealed their flaws, they must not act rashly to avoid alerting the enemy.

"But, if it is true as you said, within the year of Emperor Father... then those guys hiding in the dark must be planning some conspiracy, and we must strengthen our defenses."

Although he was unwilling to believe it in his heart, when he thought that the scenes that Jiang Chuwei saw in her dream had come true one by one, Lin Muheng could no longer hold on to any hope.

Jiang Chuwei pondered for a moment, then continued, "In my opinion, if my guess is correct, they are very likely to use poison to murder my father. After all, only poisoning can be done without anyone noticing, and people can suddenly die without even realizing it."

There was a hint of worry and vigilance in her eyes.

Lin Muheng agreed.

Although his father becomes more and more suspicious as he gets older, Lin Muheng also hopes that he can die of old age.

Anyone who plotted against him would be charged with treason even if he ascended the throne.

The person behind the scenes will definitely be very cautious.

Jiang Chuwei asked: "Should we remind our father to take precautions?"

Lin Muheng thought for a moment and shook his head: "Now is not the time. We don't have solid evidence. If we rashly remind our father, it will arouse his suspicion."

Jiang Chuwei nodded.

In fact, he didn't want to tell Emperor Rong Sheng, as it might cause more trouble.

Who is Emperor Rong Sheng most afraid of now?

Apart from Prince Jin, the other one is Lin Muheng.

Prince Jin took the risk because he saw that Lin Muheng's power was growing.

Jiang Chuwei's suggestion was just to make herself feel at ease.

She knew that Emperor Rong Sheng would die suddenly, but she felt guilty not telling him.

Just saying it aroused Emperor Rong Sheng's suspicion.

Rong Shengdi would think that Lin Muheng is crying wolf.

"What are you going to do?" Jiang Chuwei asked.

"We can investigate secretly to see if we can find any clues. At the same time, we must also strengthen the security of the palace to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos." Lin Muheng analyzed calmly.

"Okay, you have to protect yourself." Jiang Chuwei nodded in agreement.

The two decided to keep the matter secret for the time being and not tell anyone to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Lin Muheng knew very well that this matter was of great importance, so he decisively dispatched several trusted men to lurk in the dark and closely monitor Prince Jin's every move.

He himself worked tirelessly to run around, searching for clues behind the poisoning of Emperor Rong Sheng.

However, time passed quickly, and several days passed. Despite their best efforts, the investigation was still at a loss, and not even the slightest substantive progress was made.

As time went by, Lin Muheng's inner anxiety grew like a prairie fire.

After all, the sudden death of my father will undoubtedly cause severe turmoil in the entire court situation.

You know, the protracted war with Xitu and Nanning, which has just ended, has already severely damaged Daqing's vitality.

The country is currently in a turbulent time. If civil unrest breaks out again, those neighboring countries that are eyeing it will surely seize the opportunity and invade without hesitation.

Especially Xitu and Nanning, two countries that were once suppressed by Daqing. They are absolutely unwilling to surrender and will definitely take advantage of the chaos to stir up trouble.

As a result, Daqing will inevitably face the difficult predicament of internal and external troubles.

By then, the country will likely be exhausted and overwhelmed, which will lead to the gradual decline of the country and even the abyss of destruction.

After a long period of careful consideration, Lin Muheng finally decided to report this difficult matter truthfully to his father.

When Emperor Rong Sheng finished listening to Lin Muheng's statement, there was not a single ripple on his originally majestic face, as if everything was expected.

But who could have imagined that every time night fell, this seemingly calm emperor would become like a lost soul, unable to sleep peacefully or eat with peace of mind.

Wang Defu, who was standing on the side and serving carefully, saw all this and became as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. He paced back and forth constantly, feeling extremely anxious.

However, faced with the situation before him, he was completely clueless and could not think of any effective way to solve the problem. He could only stare helplessly, watching the emperor become more haggard day by day.

After much thought, Wang Defu realized that if the matter was delayed any further, the consequences would be disastrous.

So he gritted his teeth and made up his mind to go seek help from Prince Yu.

The reason for this decision is that the whole incident was caused by Prince Yu, and if no action is taken to stop it.

I'm afraid that the emperor has frightened himself to death before he was poisoned by others.

On the other side, Lin Muheng had no idea about this. He never imagined that his father, who was always so majestic and high-handed, would be so afraid of death.

At the beginning, when he mentioned this matter to his father, his original intention was just to hope that his father would be more careful and not fall easily into the trap set by the enemy.

However, since it involved the bizarre dream the princess had, it was difficult to explain clearly, so he could not tell his father everything.

If the emperor knew that all this was caused by the princess’s mumbling in her sleep, I don’t know how he would blame him!

When Lin Muheng finally saw his father, he was really shocked.

It has only been a few days since I last saw my father, and yet he has become so haggard, as if he has aged by ten years.

Moreover, my father no longer even attends the morning court sessions.

"Father!" Lin Muheng shouted.

Emperor Rong Sheng actually lay on him, which really scared Lin Muheng.

Are people so easily frightened?
