The leader of the Imperial Guards finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was really worried that the violent Prince Jing would become estranged from the Emperor because of this, and then, if he had a conflict with them, the servants, it would be difficult for them.

Fortunately, this time, Long Mo Xun did not make things difficult for them. The leader of the imperial guards bowed deeply to Long Mo Xun, and then respectfully asked Long Mo Xun to step forward.

Long Moxun raised his eyebrows slightly. Even though he did not witness the entire process of the incident with his own eyes, he had just killed someone who attempted to assassinate him here.

Now, no matter how Long Moxun explains, he cannot explain the blood on his hands, and he cannot get rid of the identity of a suspect.

Long Moxun's eyes were cold and a murderous look flashed across his brows. He knew that this matter was indeed planned by someone. Those people actually set up such a thorough plan, so it was naturally impossible for him to escape easily.

However, Long Moxun has long been immune to the tricks of the people behind the scenes. Over the years, have the mother and son in the palace ever thought of letting him go?

He always knew that the palace was the safest place, but for him, it was also the most dangerous place.

“Lead the way.”

Long Moxun stood up coldly, hiding the deep thought in his eyes. Suddenly, he was startled and felt that something seemed to have fallen off his body?

Looking downwards, Long Moxun was a little surprised, because his token had been lost at some point.

This token is a symbol of identity, and it is even more important to Long Moxun. Long Moxun recalled carefully in his mind that just now, when he was fighting with the eunuch who falsely conveyed the imperial edict, he might have lost his token unconsciously.

Thinking of the inexplicable murder case in Yu Garden, Long Moxun felt his chest tighten. He suddenly felt that the disappearance of his token was related to the case in Yu Garden.

Thinking of this, Long Moxun took a hesitant step. When the commander of the imperial guards saw Long Moxun stop, he couldn't help but look at him in surprise. However, when he looked forward again, the commander of the imperial guards' pupils suddenly shrank, because another team of guards came forward.

They are here to take people away too.

The Imperial Guards were responsible for the safety of the entire palace, and were, in terms of identity, members of the imperial court. However, the group of people who came at this time were the Shadow Guards, a group of people who were specifically responsible for protecting the emperor and who were trusted by the emperor.

The people of the imperial court and the emperor's people have overlapping responsibilities and have always disliked each other. Today, they have clashed with each other.

The leader of the Imperial Guard looked at the newcomer with displeasure: "Why did Lord Shadow Guard suddenly appear here?"

The tone doesn't sound very friendly. They are clearly here to take credit.

The Shadow Guard glanced at the leader of the Imperial Guards, and although he didn't say anything, the contempt in his eyes was obvious. Just one glance made the Imperial Guards very resentful.

"The Emperor asked the Imperial Guard to send a lover, but they tried for a long time but failed to do so. So they had no choice but to ask us to do it for them."

This was almost like saying directly that the Guards were incompetent and couldn't even hire a single person. The Guards were furious and looked at the Shadow Guards coldly, almost ready to fight.

The leader of the Imperial Guards hurried to stop them. Now, the Shadow Guards were the emperor's favorites, and they could not conflict with them openly. It was important to complete the task assigned by the emperor.

The leader of the Imperial Guards looked at Long Moxun apologetically. Long Moxun raised his eyebrows indifferently. He has always been unruly, but since the leader of the Imperial Guards showed such goodwill, he couldn't remain indifferent.

He said softly, "Nothing." The Imperial Guards immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but Long Moxun glanced between the two teams, his eyes slightly cold.

There had always been a subtle struggle between the Imperial Guards and the Shadow Guards, and today, this struggle had indeed risen to another level. The Emperor first sent the Imperial Guards to invite Prince Jing, and then sent the Shadow Guards.

This incident was not only a slap in the face of the Imperial Guards, but also a slap in the face of Long Moxun.

Long Moxun vaguely guessed that the case in Yu Garden had reached the point where the evidence was conclusive. It seemed that the mother and son were really very resourceful in framing them.

Long Mo Xun glanced at him, and the arrogant Shadow Guard jumped in front of him.

The shadow guard only bowed to Long Moxun symbolically, and said in a somewhat arrogant manner: "Your Highness, we have an invitation tonight. Please come with us."

The Shadow Guards are responsible for the safety of the Emperor. They obey the Emperor directly. Therefore, Long Moxun, who is not a noble prince, does not seem to be worthy of their special treatment. They only obey the Emperor.

Long Moxun glanced at the Shadow Guard coldly, with a hint of sneer in his deep eyes. His father, the Emperor, really didn't trust him very much and even sent out the Shadow Guard. It seemed that he had to go on this trip today.

However, Long Moxun was in a rare good temper today and did not have a conflict with Shadow Guard because he knew that at this time, there must be a trap set by someone in Yu Garden waiting for him.

Long Moxun's eyes were deep, and he immediately raised his feet and walked in front of the Shadow Guards and the Imperial Guards. The Shadow Guards and the Imperial Guards stared at each other, and both sides saw hostility in each other's eyes.

However, this little fight did not escalate to the surface. In the Yu Garden, Luo Xue Ning looked at the token that suddenly fell out from the sleeve of the corpse. Her pupils shrank and her expression suddenly became unsightly.

Luo Xue Ning had seen this token before, so she knew very well that this token belonged to Long Mo Xun. Before the murder happened, Luo Xue Ning had been with Long Mo Xun, and she also knew that this palace was not safe for Long Mo Xun.

Just before the murder happened, Long Moxun personally killed a fake eunuch who intended to do something bad to him, so Luo Xuening thought that the dropped token was definitely not something Long Moxun did intentionally. Long Moxun must have been framed.

No wonder she always felt that the truth of this case was about to be revealed, but she always had a feeling that this was a frame-up rather than a simple homicide.

However, Luo Xue Ning trusted Long Mo Xun, but the emperor, despite the solid evidence, did not trust him at all. In this situation, behind the emperor stood the officials, and behind the officials stood their families.

If the emperor handled the matter carelessly, it might leave a bad impression in the minds of the officials. The emperor always prided himself on being fair and strict, so he could not tolerate being accused of shielding his son because of this matter.

Of course, the so-called history books are always written by the victors.

When he saw the token falling from the corpse, the emperor's remaining trust in Long Moxun was wiped out.

If it were someone else, the emperor might not have been so resolute, but unfortunately, Long Moxun was a notorious prince.

He could pamper him and give in to him on weekdays, but assassinating concubines in the harem would be an offense against the emperor, which the emperor would not tolerate.

Therefore, after seeing the token, the emperor's trust was washed away by anger, and he sent out his shadow guards without hesitation. What kind of character is his son? How could he follow the guards to the garden and accept their scrutiny?

The Imperial Guards may not be Long Moxun's opponent. Sending the Shadow Guards is enough to show the importance the emperor attaches to Long Moxun. He wants to see what his son has done with his superb martial arts. If he dares to harm the world and disregard morality and ethics, the emperor will definitely bring him to justice.
