Chu Xuanchi suddenly asked, "Mo Yun, do you usually treat my princess like this?"

What he said was not harsh at all. Not only was there no anger on his face, but he even had a faint smile on his face.

But in Mo Yun's eyes, this was even more terrifying than his furious anger; it was truly a smile with a dagger hidden behind it.

Mo Yun immediately stood up and knelt down in front of Chu Xuanchi, "Please forgive me, Your Highness. I made a mistake."

Chu Xuanchi still smiled, "Lord Mo, you don't look like you know your crime, otherwise how could you not even know who to ask for forgiveness?"

Mo Yun felt extremely regretful. He was so used to scolding Mo Zhaohua on a daily basis that he forgot to restrain himself for a moment.

Now that the mistake had been made, he had no choice but to put aside his pride and reluctantly plead guilty to Mo Zhaohua, "Please forgive me, Princess."

Mo Zhaohua also had a gentle smile on his face, "Father, there is no need to be so polite. After all, your daughter is used to it."

She said there was no need to be polite, but she didn't let Mo Yun stand up. She also pointed at him and silently complained.

Rong Qing sat upright on the chair, looking at Mo Yun coldly, "Mo Yun, are you going to sign this divorce agreement or not?"

Mo Yun knelt on the ground and looked up at her, feeling even more suffocated. "What will you do if I don't sign?"

Rong Qing was determined, "Then report it to the Zongzheng Division and see if they can find evidence that Lord Mo favors his concubine and kills his wife."

The Zongzhengsi was responsible for supervising the royal family and officials. If an official's wife was refused a divorce by her husband, the case could be reported to the Zongzhengsi for trial.

If it is determined that the other party has flawed morals and the official's wife insists on divorce, the Zongzhengsi can enforce it, and those who refuse to comply will be sentenced to one year of detention.

Mo Yun really favors his concubine over his wife. If Rong Qing really wants to report it, the Zongzhengsi will definitely order a divorce, and he will not be able to serve in the army.

Everyone below him wants to climb up, and there are many people eyeing his position. After serving for a year, there is no place for him to stand.

There were people who had always been accusing him of favoring his concubine over his wife, but only Rong Qing was qualified to take advantage of this kind of family matter.

Mo Yun was initially afraid that Rong Qing would make a scene and ruin his future, but later he discovered that he could use Mo Zhaohua's reputation to control her.

Because his mother's divorce would affect his daughter's reputation, he dared to favor Lan Ruyu unscrupulously over the years.

Seeing Rong Qing's firm attitude, Mo Yun finally panicked, "We have been married for more than 20 years, are you really going to be so heartless to me?"

Rong Qing's face was filled with disappointment. "I have given you too much time and opportunities. It is you who do not need them. I will not delay you any longer."

"It is true that mother delayed father, otherwise my third sister would have become a legitimate daughter and would not have needed to rely on pregnancy to enter Prince Qi's mansion."

Mo Zhaohua's words were like a knife, stabbing Mo Yun's heart again and again. The key was that he didn't dare to be angry with her.

Not to mention that Chu Xuanchi himself was sitting here, even if only Mo Zhaohua was present, he still had to consider the identity of Princess Yu.

Mo Yun's expression was gloomy. "Madam, why did you and I become like this? Others don't know the inside story, don't you know it too?"

Rong Qing remained calm and said, "Are you threatening me, sir? Then try and see if it still works."

Seeing that she didn't even care about this, Mo Yun became more and more unsure, "Are you determined to divorce now?"

"Yes, my father is old and in poor health. Instead of wasting time here, I'd rather be filial to him."

Rong Qing originally planned to become a nun after the divorce, but Rong Hai persuaded her to stay so that Fuguo Gong'an could enjoy his old age.

Mo Zhaohua advised Mo Yun, "Father, why don't you help mother? This will prevent the incident from going to the Zongzheng Division and affecting your career."

Mo Yun looked at Mo Zhaohua, then at Rong Qing, and finally his gaze fell on Chu Xuanchi, his mind turning.

He had never thought about divorce. If he really wanted to divorce, he might as well divorce his wife, because he had something on Rong Qing.

But once the matter gets out of hand, the Prince of Fuguo's Mansion will probably not let him go, and it will also affect Prince Qi's great cause.

While he was thinking, Rong Hai walked in. "Oh...still eating, it seems that I came too early."

Rong Qing smiled and said, "It's not too early. I have already proposed a divorce and have packed my things. I just need Mr. Mo to sign before I can go home."

Her home is the Prince of Fuguo Mansion, a place without jealousy or intrigue, but full of warmth.

Rong Hai bowed to Chu Xuanchi and his wife, "Your Majesty, Princess."

Mo Zhaohua stood up and returned the greeting, "Uncle, how are you."

Chu Xuanchi followed and called out, "Uncle."

He now has an uncle, and this uncle is also a brave and capable general.

Just like his own uncle, he became famous at a young age, defeated the Northern Rong and made great military achievements.

Rong Hai already respected Chu Xuanchi, and when he heard him call him uncle, he was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling, "Okay, haha..."

As guests are welcome, Mo Yun had to take the initiative to greet them, "Prince Rong!"

Rong Hai seemed to have just seen him, "Huh? Why is Lord Mo kneeling on the ground? What did he do wrong?"

Mo Zhaohua exclaimed, "Ah... why hasn't father stood up yet? Didn't your daughter say that there's no need to be so polite?"

Mo Yun suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "Until the prince and princess forgive me, I dare not get up."

"Get up." Mo Zhaohua sat upright, "After we have dealt with the divorce, we have to go back home."

Mo Yun then stood up and returned to his seat, but if Rong Qing wanted to divorce, he would never agree easily.

Rong Qing looked at him and said, "I'll ask you one last time, do you want to sign the divorce agreement, or do you want me to report it to the Zongzhengsi?"

Mo Yun's words were threatening, "Are you sure you have thought it through? Are you going to divorce me regardless of the consequences?"

Rong Qing threatened him in return, "Yes, Lord Mo, please also think about your career and the people in the mansion."

Although they seemed to be playing charades, Mo Zhaohua could still hear some clues from their conversation.

It seems that my father has something on my mother, but he doesn't dare to bring it out easily because it will affect himself.

"Mother-in-law, why bother so much? Since Master Mo doesn't want to divorce, why not just write a letter of divorce?"

Chu Xuanchi also realized that they were playing dumb, and fearing that Rong Qing's threat was not strong enough, he took the initiative to speak up to support her.

Madam Mo misunderstood, "Your Majesty, are you asking my son to divorce his wife? How can I do that?"

Chu Xuanchi chuckled, "No, it was my mother-in-law who divorced her husband. What do you think, my lord?"

Rong Hai laughed, "Your Majesty is right. Since Mo Yun favors his concubine over his wife, why can't he divorce her?"

"No, absolutely not!" Madam Mo was shocked, "Yun'er, please speak quickly."

The prince's son-in-law and his younger brother both supported it, so Rong Qing also gave it his all and told the nanny, "Prepare the writing brush and ink!"

Mo Zhaohua praised with a smile, "Your Highness is really smart. Mother divorced her husband faster than reporting it to the Zongzhengsi."

Mo Yun's eyes were almost spitting fire, "Do you really dare to divorce your husband?"

Rong Qing, who was always gentle, seemed to be covered with thorns at this moment. "If you don't believe me, Master Mo, you can try it."

Madam Mo was so angry and anxious that she almost fainted. "You are going to force me to death..."
