Was the whole group wiped out in the previous life? Reborn to drag the crippled king into the bridal
Chapter 278: Coaxing people
Yuchi Kun got a headache when he saw Yuchi Jiyue like this, and asked unhappily: "What are you doing out again?"
But Yuchi Jiyue still argued, "I don't want to stay behind anymore. We will meet sooner or later anyway."
Chu Xuanhan took the opportunity to apologize, "Yue'er, I'm sorry, it was my fault. As a new father, I suffered the pain of losing my son, which led to my words being out of line."
"No..." Yuchi Jiuyue had forgiven him last time because of a simple apology, and this time it was even worse.
Yuchi Kun knew she would do this, so he stopped her from talking in time and reminded her with a serious face, "Princess, be careful with your words!"
Yuchi Jiyue then collected her thoughts and pretended to be sad, "Your Highness really broke my heart that day."
Chu Xuanhan's eyes were filled with shame, and his tone was gentle, "This king knows, so I have been preparing an apology gift for Yue'er these few days."
Leng Yan chimed in, "Princess, in order to prepare a gift for you, the master even went to the Empress Liang to ask for help."
Yuchi Jiyue was instantly anxious, "If the prince asks mother for help for me, then mother will blame me for being ignorant, right?"
The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has been difficult since ancient times, and Concubine Liang was one of the four concubines of Emperor Wenzong, so she did not dare to offend her.
Chu Xuanhan explained, "I am not like my elder brother, who has a lot of contact with women. I really don't understand women's preferences, so I asked mother."
He seemed to be explaining the reason, but in fact he was telling everyone present that he had no personal feelings for Mo Yaohua, so he did not understand women.
"But don't worry, Yue'er. Mother knows that this is my fault. She reprimanded me and ordered me to take Yue'er back as soon as possible."
Yuchi Jiyue was overjoyed when she heard this, "Did mother really say that?"
Chu Xuanhan nodded, "Yes, mother also reminded me that the New Year's Palace Banquet is coming soon, and this is the first time we will attend it together."
Seeing that Yuchi Jiuyue was about to waver and take the initiative to go back to Prince Qi's Mansion with him, Yuchi Kun was very disappointed and quickly sent her away.
He made an excuse, "The princess's tea art is always excellent, especially the winter snow tea. I wonder if you can make a cup for me?"
This was indeed a rare skill that Yuchi Jiuyue could show off, so he happily agreed, "Okay, I'll go right away, Grandfather, wait for me."
After she left, Yuchi Kun asked coldly, "Prince Qi deliberately mentioned Concubine Liang and the palace banquet, but is he taking the opportunity to threaten us?"
"I dare not." Chu Xuanhan said with difficulty, "But the new year is coming soon, and I really have to take the princess back to the palace this time."
Yuchi Kun's face was gloomy, his eyes were cold, "Why? If it weren't for the New Year, Prince Qi wouldn't want to take the princess back?"
Chu Xuanhan said in a high-sounding manner, "Of course I have to accept it, but if the old general wants to keep the princess for a few more days, I can come to visit every day."
"Hmph!" Although Yuchi Kun snorted coldly, he actually felt a little more comfortable after hearing these words.
Chu Xuanhan explained, "Since the princess has already married me, it will not be good for her reputation if she stays in the general's mansion to celebrate the New Year."
What Yuchi Kun disliked most was him making excuses, and the good impression he had just had immediately disappeared. "Prince Qi still said he was not threatening?"
Chu Xuanhan explained, "It's really not true. I am just analyzing the pros and cons. I will show my sincerity and the apology gift has been sent to Mingyueju."
"Is that enough?" Yuchi Kun was dissatisfied. "I am not dead yet, but Prince Qi is bullying the princess like this. How will she survive after I die?"
He worried a lot about his descendants throughout his life. When he was young, he fought bravely and made great achievements in battle. Later, he took Yuchi Changbow to the battlefield.
In fact, most of Yuchi Changgong's military exploits were achieved with his help, and he wanted to use this to continue the Yuchi family's honor and favor.
Later, he returned to Shengjing and actively maintained relationships between superiors and subordinates and expanded his network, also to lay a foundation for Yuchi Changgong.
He worked hard all his life, but in the end he was only a second-rank official. However, Yuchi Changgong is now a third-rank official, and it was all due to his efforts.
Although he didn't want Yuchi Jiuyue to marry into the palace at first, since he had fulfilled her wish, he had to let her sit firmly on the position of mistress.
As a minister, he was worthy of the emperor and lived up to the people. As a father and grandfather, he had also provided enough protection.
Chu Xuanhan was able to coax Yuchi Jiuyue with a few words, but he was still unable to win over Yuchi Kun, and he really didn't know how to satisfy him.
So he asked him directly, "This matter is indeed my fault. Time cannot be reversed. I wonder what the old general wants me to do?"
"We'll discuss it after Changgong comes back." Yuchi Kun had an idea, but he wanted Yuchi Changgong to be present in case he died one day and Chu Xuanhan refused to admit it.
The main hall fell into silence until Yuchi Jiyue came in with her maid, "Grandfather, the tea is here. Is father not back yet?"
Yuchi Kun then spoke, "It should be soon. Thank you for your hard work, Princess."
At the same time, in the main courtyard of the Prince Yu’s Mansion.
Shuying came in and reported, "Prince Qi went to the General's Mansion again."
Mo Zhaohua laughed, "Finally I went there. I wonder if I can successfully bring the person back this time."
Chu Xuanchi said confidently: "Of course he can. After all, if he doesn't go, the general's mansion will be anxious."
Mo Zhaohua responded, "Indeed, only married women who have been divorced or abandoned will celebrate the New Year at their parents' home."
Wuying was a little puzzled. "In that case, why did Prince Qi go to pick him up? Instead of waiting for the General's Mansion to send him back?"
Chu Xuanchi explained, "This matter was originally his fault. He cannot offend the General's Mansion unless he does not want to take advantage of the other party's power."
Shuying said with disdain, "The state-guarding general is old, and the military power of General Huaihua is limited. How much can he help Prince Qi?"
In his opinion, in terms of prestige in the army, the father and son of the Yuchi family combined could not compare to Chu Xuanchi's words.
Chu Xuanchi said in a deep voice: "Although Yuchi Kun is old, he is a veteran who has returned from the battlefield after all. He has many subordinates and a wide network of contacts."
Wuying understood, "I understand. Soldiers are most nostalgic and will naturally give face to the general who guards the country. This is the help that King Qi wants."
"That's right. When it comes to the most critical moment in the struggle for power, a military general who truly holds military power will be more useful than a civil official."
Although Chu Xuanchi himself never had the intention of usurping the throne, he had to guard against others trying to usurp the throne and bring disaster to the people of Dongling.
Mo Zhaohua's expression became serious, and his words became solemn, "My husband is not talking about seizing the throne, it's already a conspiracy to usurp the throne."
Chu Xuanchi did not deny it, "Once the fight for the throne fails, it will be difficult to protect oneself, so forcing the emperor to abdicate and rebel will naturally become the last hope."
"If that day really comes, the General's Mansion will be buried with Prince Qi, unless they can stay out of it as soon as possible."
Today's General's Mansion is the Duke's Mansion in the previous life. They did not help the tyrant in their previous life, and Mo Zhaohua does not want them to end up like that.
Chu Xuanchi groaned, "It depends on whether Yuchi Kun and Yuchi Changgong can see the situation clearly and make the right choice."
