1. One theory comes from the original novel "Emperor Yongzheng" by Yue Erhe, in which Liu Molin is After Su Shunqing was raped and thrown into the river, he was depressed and unhappy. He was sent to Nian Gengyao's military camp by Emperor Yongzheng, and was eventually poisoned to death by Nian Gengyao's men.

2. Another theory is what Hongli himself said in the play. Hongshi sent an assassin to assassinate Hongli. Liu Molin was with Hongli at the time, but he was eager to protect his master and was killed by the assassin.
