Mu Anjin burned the note over the candle flame, then quickly stood up and walked towards Lord Li's residence. This time, Lord Li's son, Li Maosen, had made a great contribution.

Outside Yuncheng, Mu Ange rode swiftly towards the border of Daqi, the place where his maternal grandfather had died on the battlefield.
This ambush can be considered a clever maneuver. Even without the ambush, his ultimate goal would still be the border, only it would have attracted more attention. But now that the ambush has happened, he can quietly go to the border under a new identity and investigate the events of that year without any scruples.
"We will arrive in ten days."
Mu Ange put his arm around An Ning's waist and said.
An Ning nodded, her eyes filled with an even stronger determination than Mu Ange's.
The capital city.
Inside the Yangju Hall.
The Emperor was furious, apparently because of something that happened at the Ministry of Works.
This was the first time Mu Anjin had been verbally abused by the emperor since gaining favor, and he was still waiting for the face of the many ministers.
After leaving the palace, Mu Anjin's face was terribly gloomy.
"Your Highness, please don't take it too seriously. His Majesty has been losing his temper sometimes lately. Please don't be angry and don't worry about it."
Lord He walked up to him and said very considerately.
Mu Anjin's face, which was gloomy a second ago, turned into a smile the next second.
“It is only right for the Emperor to reprimand his subjects, especially since I have indeed overstepped my bounds in this matter.”
Lord He nodded and then left.
After Mu Anjin returned to the palace in a rage, he went to Xu Jiao'er and vented his anger before his anger subsided somewhat.
This time, it was only by chance that he saw the design drawings of the mausoleum at the Ministry of Works. He was curious and took a look at them for a few moments, but he did not expect that old man Yan would directly report him to the emperor and gossip about it, which made his father so angry with him.
The more Mu Anjin thought about it, the more resentful he became. Looking at the dark sky outside the window, he could no longer hide the viciousness in his eyes: Since you care so much about your own grave, then I will let you move in sooner!
At midnight, Mu Anjin suddenly suffered from a headache, and the imperial physician on duty in the palace rushed to the Prince's residence to diagnose him.
On the bed, Mu Anjin kept rubbing his temples and sighing heavily.
The imperial physician was very anxious when he saw his condition: "Your Highness, please don't worry, I will examine you right away."
As he spoke, the imperial physician placed his hand on Mu Anjin's arm.
Mu Anjin suddenly grabbed his hand, stared at him, and whispered, "Lord Wang?"
The imperial physician's hand trembled violently. He looked up at Mu Anjin, his body shaking uncontrollably.
"Your Highness?"
Mu Anjin pulled him even closer, which only made Lord Wang tremble even more violently.
"Does Lord Wang still remember me?"
Lord Wang lowered his head: "I remember, the last time Your Highness was ill, it was I who came to treat you."
Mu Anjin nodded: "I am very pleased that you, Lord Wang, still remember such a small matter despite your busy schedule."
The incident of Lord Wang treating Mu Anjin happened three years ago. At that time, Mu Anjin was an unfavored prince whom everyone could trample on. Therefore, when Lord Wang came to treat him, he did not give him a kind look. Even now, Mu Anjin's leg is still a little lame, which is also because Lord Wang did not do his best when treating him back then.
Cold sweat poured down Lord Wang's forehead until his face turned deathly pale.
