Was the whole group wiped out in the previous life? Reborn to drag the crippled king into the bridal

The Residence of the Minister of Revenue, Yishou Hall.

After seeing the imperial physician, Madam Mo's health improved a little.

She had not been resting in bed since yesterday, but had been walking around with the help of her maid.

She always felt like something was missing since the morning, and it was not until the afternoon that she realized it was because Nanny Liu did not come to serve her.

So she asked the maid who was supporting her, "Where is Aunt Liu? Why didn't she come to serve me today?"

The maid Xiaoxi replied, "I haven't seen Madam since this morning, and I thought she had asked for leave from the old lady."

Madam Mo discovered a few days ago that something was wrong with Nanny Liu. She was absent-minded and not serving her wholeheartedly.

Nanny Liu was afraid that Lan Ruyu would find out about this and cause trouble for her because Mo Zhaohua had come back to question her that day.

Madam Mo didn't know the reason and misunderstood her, "This damn old woman must be disgusted with me and doesn't want to serve me anymore."

The maid Xiao Cui said, "No way? Yesterday, Madam told us servants to serve the old lady well."

"I told you to serve me well, but you are being lazy?" Madam Mo said, "Hurry up and have someone call that old woman over. I want to ask her in person."

"Yes, old lady." Xiaoxi responded, and a cleaning girl with two buns on her hair came in immediately.

After receiving Xiaoxi's instructions, the cleaning maid went out to look for Madam Liu, but unfortunately she couldn't find anyone after searching for a long time.

The next morning, in the backyard of the Prince's Palace.

Wuying went out to do some business and brought a letter back to the main courtyard.

He entered the study and handed the letter to Mo Zhaohua, "Princess, there is a letter for you."

Mo Zhaohua put down the brush, reached out to take it and asked, "Do you know where it came from?"

"The residence of the Minister of Revenue." Wuying went to his seat. He also had his own desk and chair in the study.

"I don't know if it's a letter from Aunt Qiao or Aunt Liu." Mo Zhaohua didn't expect a letter from Mo Yun.

Mo Yun would come in person when there was something important, such as when he asked for the imperial physician to help old lady Mo last time. For minor matters, he would send someone to deliver a message.

Chu Xuanchi watched her unfold the letter but didn't say anything. He just looked a little serious before asking, "But is there something wrong, old lady?"

"No." Mo Zhaohua handed him the letter. "It's from Aunt Qiao. Aunt Liu has disappeared since yesterday."

After Chu Xuanchi finished reading it, he asked Wuying to burn the letter. "She must be afraid that she would reveal the fact that Mo Yaohua poisoned her and be silenced."

Mo Zhaohua also agreed, "Mo Yaohua is now too busy to take care of himself. It must have been the Lan family who did it, but I don't know where the body is."

Chu Xuanchi didn't need to think too much. "If she left the house, it's hard to say. If she didn't leave the house, she is most likely in the lake or the well."

Mo Zhaohua didn't care much. "If there is news, Aunt Qiao will write to me. If there is no news, it doesn't matter. I haven't done anything to her."

Chu Xuanchi smiled and said, "Indeed, the end of the year is busy enough, why bother about such insignificant things."

In Mo Zhaohua's opinion, Nanny Liu assisted the tyrant in her previous life and helped Madam Mo to torture Rong Qing, so she deserved to die.

Therefore, she only felt a momentary sense of heaviness after taking revenge when she saw the letter, but she quickly calmed down and changed the subject.

"Since Prince Qi has found out the truth and believes it, why doesn't he go and bring Princess Qi back? Do you want to keep her in the General's Mansion to celebrate the New Year?"

Chu Xuanchi shook his head, "That's impossible. How can a married woman be allowed to spend the New Year at her parents' home, unless she is divorced or divorced."

But Yuchi Jiyue's marriage was arranged by someone else, so divorce was impossible. Now that she had not violated any of the seven grounds for divorce, Chu Xuanhan could not divorce her.

Mo Zhaohua curled her lips and said, "The new year is almost here. If Prince Qi is not anxious, I will be anxious too."

Chu Xuanchi saw through her thoughts at a glance, "Zhao Zhao is so anxious, is she waiting to see Lao Liu make a fool of himself?"

Mo Zhaohua smiled and said, "It's a joke to watch. At the same time, I'm also curious about how he will deal with Princess Qi's family."

Chu Xuanchi thought for a moment, "Old Six was probably troubled by this, so he didn't go to the General's Mansion to pick him up immediately after finding out the truth."

Mo Zhaohua didn't think too much about it. "Forget it. I'm still busy preparing the gifts and don't have time to think about it. Just wait for the news."

She had already prepared the gifts for Rong Yue's coming-of-age ceremony, but there were many more gifts that needed to be prepared for the social interactions during the new year.

For example, the Empress Dowager and other elders in the palace, her two natal families, the Minister of Revenue’s Mansion and the Duke of Fuguo’s Mansion, and some other relatives and friends.

In addition, there are some officials and ladies with whom Chu Xuanchi has a relationship, and relationships also need to be maintained to lay the foundation for Chu Xuanchi's network in Shengjing.

That afternoon, at the General’s Mansion.

Chu Xuanhan gritted his teeth and brought Jinqiu over.

This time, only Yuchi Kun and Xu received him in the main hall.

Yuchi Kun's words were extremely cold. "I wonder what brings you here, Prince Qi? What do you want to do?"

Chu Xuanhan said gently: "Old General, I have already investigated the last incident."

Yuchi Kun deliberately asked, "Prince Qi is sure that it was the princess who ordered it, and brought witnesses and evidence to question him?"

Chu Xuanhan lowered his posture, "No, I came here specifically to inform you of the results of the investigation and clear Yue'er's name."

"Innocent?" Yuchi Kun had a clue in his mind. "It seems that Prince Qi is sure that the princess was not responsible and he had wrongly accused her before."

Chu Xuanhan would not admit it, "I just took the opportunity to apologize to the princess last time, and I never really believed what that bitch said."

Yuchi Kun said arrogantly, "I still say the same thing. Prince Qi is so sincere. He wronged the princess but he even needs to find an excuse to apologize."

If it were anyone else, even if Chu Xuanhan had admitted that it was his fault, they would not dare to use this attitude, but Yuchi Kun did.

He has been relying on his military achievements to bully others over the years. Chu Xuanhan also knows his temper and can only suppress his anger.

"It's all my fault. I was too smart and didn't think things through. So I'll find out the truth first before I give the princess an explanation."

Yuchi Kun did not hide his dissatisfaction at all and asked sarcastically, "Is this all the sincerity of Prince Qi?"

Chu Xuanhan said: "No, I want to offer tea to the princess and the old general and apologize in public. Please give me a chance."

Yuchi Kun gave an order, "Come here, Prince Qi has come in person to apologize, and quickly go to the government office to invite General Huaihua back."

He himself was a second-rank general defending the country, while Yuchi Changgong was promoted to the third-rank general of Huaihua at the beginning of this year.

He put a lot of effort into getting Yuchi Changgong promoted, for he was afraid that if he died, this eldest son would never have the chance to be promoted.

Someone outside responded, "Yes, old general!"

Chu Xuanhan requested, "Old General, can you let me see Yue'er? I have something to say to Yue'er."

Although he couldn't see clearly what was behind the screen, he guessed that Yuchi Jiuyue must be hiding there again.

Yuchi Kun knew that Yuchi Jiyue would be soft-hearted, so he asked her to hide. "It's not convenient now. Let's talk about it after Changgong comes back."

But Yuchi Jiyue couldn't help but come out again, "Grandfather..."
