The two of them didn't discuss much else after this talk.

When the fourth prince came back, he was surprised to see that they were just sitting there in silence.

He turned to Emperor Mu and asked, "Royal father, is something the matter?"

Seeing that he didn't respond, the fourth prince turned to look at Lin Fan and asked, "Brother in law, is something wrong?"

Lin Fan also ignored him.

The two of them were completely lost in their thoughts, so they hadn't even heard what the fourth prince had said.

Seeing that they were both ignoring him, the fourth prince became more and more annoyed until he shouted, "What is going on here?!"

If anyone else were to see the fourth prince acting like this, they definitely would have been shocked. After all, the fourth prince right now was anything from the elegant and handsome fourth prince that he was rumoured to be.

The one right now was acting like a spoiled child instead of a prince.

But of course, it was only in front of these two that he would act this way.

This was a side of him that he would only show to those that he considered family.

After his outburst, both Lin Fan and Emperor Mu were pulled out of their thoughts with a jolt.

They looked at each other and didn't say a thing as they suddenly stood up.

Seeing them stand up like this, the fourth prince was even more confused as he said, "Where are you going?"

This time, Emperor Mu didn't remain quiet as he said, "Little fourth, come with me to take care of some matters with the crowning ceremony."

Hearing the serious tone in Emperor Mu's voice, the fourth prince suddenly said with a bow, "Your son obeys."

Then he went behind Emperor Mu as they headed out of the room.

But before they could leave the room, Emperor Mu seemed like he thought of

something.

He turned back and said, "Eunuch Gong, can you please come out for a second?"

There was a figure that suddenly appeared in the room as soon as his voice fell.

This person dressed in eunuch robes immediately bowed to Emperor Mu and said, "This servant is here."

Emperor Mu gave a nod before saying, "Eunuch Gong, stay with Lin Fan for now and keep him safe. Also lead him to the special waiting room that has been prepared for him."

Eunuch Gong couldn't help looking up at Emperor Mu with a surprised look when he heard this, but seeing the serious look on his face, he bowed his head again as he said, "This servant obeys."

Emperor Mu gave a nod before turning to Lin Fan to stay, "Stay out of trouble for now and watch the crowning ceremony. When it is all over, you will have to support Bao Bao in my place."

Both Eunuch Gong and the fourth prince couldn't help revealing surprised looks when they heard this.

The fourth prince wasn't strange since he had been out of the room when they had this discussion, but Eunuch Gong should have been close enough to hear the conversation between the two of them.

Had Eunuch Gong moved away out of loyalty or did he move away for another reason?

That was the thought that passed through Lin Fan's mind when he saw this.

If it was the latter, then Emperor Mu had left quite the ticking time bomb beside him…

But for now, he tried to suppress this thought since he knew that he wouldn't be able to fight back if that was the case.

He could feel the deep aura coming from Eunuch Gong, showing that he had a deep cultivation.

Emperor Mu ignored all of this and just walked out with the fourth prince.

Eunuch Gong stayed silent for a bit before turning to Lin Fan and saying, "Follow me."

There was no courtesy at all in Eunuch Gong's voice, but Lin Fan wasn't surprised.

After all, he didn't have a status that would require Eunuch Gong to be polite to him.

The fact that he was even speaking to him in the first place was already out of his loyalty to Emperor Mu. If it wasn't for the order from Emperor Mu, he wouldn't have cared about Lin Fan at all.

Without waiting for Lin Fan, Eunuch Gong opened the door and walked out.

Lin Fan just revealed a bitter smile before following behind Eunuch Gong.

As they walked through the palace, they passed through quite a few maids and eunuchs that were rushing around. It seemed like the palace was quite busy because of this coronation.

But to his surprise, he found that not a single person noticed them.

It wasn't that they were just too busy to notice them, but most of them didn't even acknowledge their existence as they moved by. Some of them had even almost bumped into him if he hadn't moved out of the way at the last second.

If he had to guess, it was most likely something that Eunuch Gong had done to hide them.

But why was he hiding them?

Was he really a traitor and he was taking him somewhere to finish him off?

It didn't turn out to be this way in the end.

Eunuch Gong just led Lin Fan to a room and opened the door while waiting for him to go in.

This room wasn't that bad, it was definitely a room that was used for an important guest.

After Lin Fan went in, Eunuch Gong said, "Stay here and don't move. I'll come get you when it's time for the crowning ceremony."

Then without waiting for a response, Eunuch Gong turned to leave.

Lin Fan was just left there alone in that room, but he didn't mind.

After all, this was a safe place for him to be.

It was dangerous out there with all that was happening, so this really was the safest place to be.

It was out of the way of everything.

Or at least that was what he thought…until someone suddenly broke into his room.

The worst part was that this person didn't come in through the door, but rather through one of the windows.

Lin Fan wasn't able to see who it was at first and with their clothes blocking their appearance, he wasn't able to see who it was even after they entered the room.

So the only thing that he could do was pull out his sword and wait cautiously for this person to identify themselves.

But when they turned around to reveal who they were, Lin Fan couldn't help being surprised.

Because this mass of clothing was actually…Mu Bao Bao.

When she turned around to see him pointing a sword at her, she couldn't help asking, "What…are you doing?"

Lin Fan awkwardly looked back at her, being too stunned to put the sword away as he said, "Uh, nothing…It's just that I didn't know who was coming in and I thought it was an enemy."

Mu Bao Bao looked behind her, seeing the clothes that she was wearing get caught on the window. Slowly she gave a nod and said, "Oh, right…"

Both of them awkwardly stood there for a bit before Mu Bao Bao finally said, "It's all because of those elders chasing after me! If it wasn't for them, then I wouldn't have snuck off like this."

Lin Fan took this time to carefully look over her, or rather he took a look at the clothes that she was wearing.

To say that the outfit that she was wearing was unique was an understatement because…this outfit really was something else. There wasn't really a pattern to it, it was just a bunch of cloth that seemed like they were stitched together.

It really was quite ugly, but that didn't stop Mu Bao Bao's beauty from shining through.

Mu Bao Bao finally stopped complaining and noticed Lin Fan staring at her like this which caused her to fall silent. After a bit of silence, she asked, "It's ugly isn't it?"

Lin Fan jolted when he heard this and he quickly shook his head before saying, "No, no, it's not ugly at all! It's just that…"

Mu Bao Bao gave a sigh and said, "It's fine, I already know what it is. But they said that this was the formal wear for this ceremony and I had no choice but to wear it. Since they were being so insistent, I really couldn't say anything."

Lin Fan just revealed a smile and walked over.

When he was in front of her, he reached his arms out for her to enter and Mu Bao Bao entered his embrace without any hesitation.

As she laid there, she said, "I don't know if I'm up for all of this."

Lin Fan couldn't help knitting his brows when he heard this.

It wasn't that he didn't want to support her, but…he knew that this matter was related to her mother.

He didn't know whether he should tell her or not since he didn't know what she would do.

But Mu Bao Bao was a sharp person and this was the person that was the closest to her, so she was able to tell that there was something off about Lin Fan right away.

She moved away from him and narrowed her eyes to look at him.

That frown on his face had already disappeared and he was trying to remain as calm as he could, but it was hard to do so under Mu Bao Bao's scrutiny.

Finally she asked, "What are you hiding?"
