Was the whole group wiped out in the previous life? Reborn to drag the crippled king into the bridal
Chapter 255 Wedding Date
Zhenguo General's Mansion.
Yuchi Jiyue only disturbed Xu in the middle of the night.
It was Yicui who advised her to be quieter and not wake up others.
Although the Xu family is the head of the mansion now, Yuchi Jiuyue has an older sister-in-law, and the relationship between the two is not harmonious.
If she went back to her parents' home in the middle of the night and caused chaos in the whole house, it would surely make the young mistress unhappy and deepen the rift between them.
In the future, the General's Mansion will be headed by the Young Madam, so Yuchi Jiuyue must not offend her, unless she does not want to rely on her natal family in the future.
It was not until breakfast that Yuchi Jiyue met Yuchi Changgong and others. When they learned the reason, they were furious.
When General Yuchi heard that his granddaughter had been wronged, he almost skipped breakfast and went to ask King Qi for justice.
It was Yuchi Changgong who stopped him and persuaded him to have breakfast first. He then asked someone to go to the government office to ask for leave and deal with the matter first.
At this moment, the family was sitting in the flower hall. After dismissing everyone around them, Yuchi Changgong asked, "You really didn't do anything to Prince Qi's concubine?"
He stopped Yuchi Kun before because he was afraid that if Yuchi Jiuyue took action, they would be asked to be slapped in the face.
Yuchi Jiuyue said dissatisfiedly: "My daughter would like to do it, but mother has warned me many times, how can my daughter dare to do it?"
Yuchi Changgong breathed a sigh of relief. "As long as they didn't do anything, we are in the right. If Prince Qi doesn't come and give an explanation, the princess should not go back."
Yuchi Jiyue said: "I thought so too, that's why I had the confidence to come back home and ask my grandfather and father to seek justice for me."
Yuchi Kun has a lot of legitimate grandchildren, but this is the only legitimate granddaughter whom he has always loved very much. Naturally, she will not let it go after suffering such an injustice.
His cold eyes were filled with a sinister light, "Don't worry, as long as we are right, we will make King Qi pay a price this time."
Relying on his military achievements, he was the kind of man who dared to cry in front of Emperor Wenzong. Yet, he still dared to turn his face away to a mere Prince Qi.
Yuchi Jiuyue dared to be arrogant because of this. If she didn't like Chu Xuanhan, she wouldn't have been so submissive in Prince Qi's Mansion.

Prince Qi's Mansion.
Mo Yaohua hasn't woken up yet.
After Chu Xuanhan had breakfast, he went to the study.
There are too many things going on in the palace today, and he is no longer able to take care of the affairs of the court.
Leng Yan was busy the whole night last night, and now he was called by Chu Xuanhan again, feeling uneasy.
Chu Xuanhan sat in a chair behind the desk, his face terribly gloomy, "How is the investigation going?"
"Master, please forgive me, we haven't found any results yet." This was the reason why Leng Yan was uneasy. He had been busy all night in vain.
Chu Xuanhan was furious, "You useless things, you couldn't find out the matter last time, and you didn't find any results this time either, what's the point of me keeping you?"
Leng Yan knelt on one knee and said, "I admit my guilt. Please give me some more time. I will give you an explanation."
"How long will it take you?" Chu Xuanhan knew that there would be no result, but he was angry and had no place to vent, so he took it out on him.
Leng Yan tried his best to fight for it. "This matter is of great importance, and the person behind it is doing it in secret. Master, please give me some leniency for a few days."
Chu Xuanhan's eyes were sinister. "Okay, then I will give you three days. If you can't find any results, go back to where you came from."
"Yes, master!" Leng Yan's heart sank. It was only three days and the time was so tight. It seemed that he would not be able to get a good night's sleep for the rest of the time.
Chu Xuanhan calmed down and asked about the investigation last night. "Although there is no result yet, is there any progress?"
"I have consulted the people in Wutong Garden in detail. Combined with the judgment of the palace doctor, it is very likely that the abortion drug was put on the strawberries."
Leng Yan spent half the night questioning Jinqiu and Nanny Wu before he came to a conclusion. Unfortunately, all the strawberries had been eaten by Mo Yaohua.
As long as there is some left, the court doctor can check it, but other meals and snacks either don’t match the time or have some leftovers that need to be checked.
"Strawberry?" Chu Xuanhan frowned. "Isn't that what I gave to my concubine? Could it be that the person who did it is right beside me?"
In Dongling Kingdom, strawberries are not a common fruit. The strawberries in Prince Qi's Mansion are rewards from the palace, so there are not many of them.
Because Mo Yaohua liked it, Chu Xuanhan went to the palace to ask Concubine Liang for some, and then sent them all to Wutong Garden.
Leng Yan said: "It could be someone close to the master, or someone who was drugged on the way there, or someone from Wutong Garden."
Precisely because of these uncertainties, more time is needed to investigate and check all those who may have come into contact with the Strawberry Man.
“We must conduct a thorough investigation. If anyone dares to lay hands on me, he will be killed without mercy!” Chu Xuanhan cherishes his life and does not want to be in danger all the time.

Afternoon, at the Royal Palace.
Mo Zhaohua took care of household chores in the morning and had free time in the afternoon.
The study room in the backyard is very large, with a small area separated by a screen and a bed placed in it.
On weekdays in the afternoon, Chu Xuanchi worked in the study, while Mo Zhaohua sat cross-legged on the bed practicing her Heart Sutra.
The martial arts training I mentioned before has been put on hold temporarily because of the cold weather these days and it’s easy to catch a cold.
After lunch, Mo Zhaohua would first accompany Chu Xuanchi to read for a while, take a short rest, and then practice the Heart Sutra when the time was right.
She pushed Chu Xuanchi into the study room and said, "My dear, good things come in pairs. I want to get married in three days."
The happy event refers to the marriage of Zhenzhu and Cui Zhuo. Cui Zhuo has been preparing for it these days and it should be almost complete.
Commoners' weddings are not as convenient as those of royal children, as they require a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources to prepare.
She had someone pick a date earlier. There have been quite a few good days recently, and three days from now is an auspicious day.
Chu Xuanchi groaned, "It's time to do it sooner. In a few days it will be Rong Yue's coming-of-age party, and my mother-in-law's birthday."
Rong Qing and Rong Yue's birthdays are only a few days apart, and like Chu Xuanchi, both are at the end of the year, but Rong Qing also refuses to hold a birthday party.
Rong Hai originally thought that since she had divorced and returned home, he should take this opportunity to hold a grand banquet to let all his relatives and friends know that she had escaped from her suffering.
Rong Qing was just the opposite. Ordinary women rarely held birthday banquets, and it happened to be Rong Yue's coming-of-age banquet, so she didn't want to cause trouble.
Mo Zhaohua smiled and said, "Then I will take a rest for a while and then go to the front yard to talk to Cui Zhuo. After all, he is the groom."
If it weren't for Zhenzhu's special status, she would not be able to decide the wedding date. Now it doesn't seem like Cui Zhuo is getting married, but rather like Zhenzhu is looking for a son-in-law.
Mo Zhaohua chatted with Chu Xuanchi for a while and then left the study. Zhenzhu came up to them and told them directly about the wedding date.
Pearl's face turned red again. "Three days later? So soon?"
Mo Zhaohua teased her again, "If you don't give her a name soon, how can you have a baby soon?"
Pearl's face became more and more rosy, and she looked shy and seductive. "The princess is making fun of me again."
Mo Zhaohua smiled and said, "Have the wedding before the New Year. Have a good New Year and have a big fat boy next year."
Pearl said coquettishly, "Princess..."
