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

In the afternoon, Chu Xuanchi and Mo Zhaohua left Prince Yu's Mansion.

It was still early for the dinner, so they came to the palace at this time on purpose to pay their respects to their elders first.

They rarely go to the palace on weekdays, and it is not convenient to chat alone at the palace banquet, so it is most appropriate to go to the palace early.

In the carriage, Mo Zhaohua sat upright, "Husband, do you have any idea about the matter between Young Master Xiao and Xue'er?"

Chu Xuanchi smiled, "At present, Xiao Yan has no problem, but Xue'er is not yet of marriageable age, so there is no need to rush."

Ever since Xiao Yan and Mu Xueyan came to Shengjing, Shuying has never given up investigating, but has not found any problems with him so far.

But this involves Mu Xueyan's feelings and destiny, so Chu Xuanchi is more cautious, fearing that she will be hurt in the future because of Xiao Yan's identity.

Mo Zhaohua reminded: "Xue'er's birthday is in the summer, and she will soon be 15 years old. Since she has already fallen in love, I'm afraid she may not be willing to wait any longer."

After a girl has completed her coming-of-age ceremony, she can discuss marriage. If she already has a childhood sweetheart, she can go straight to the three books and six ceremonies to get married.

Chu Xuanchi suddenly thought of something, "Why did Zhao Zhao suddenly mention Xue'er's matter? Please don't tell me that I went to talk to her about this matter this morning."

Mo Zhaohua smiled and shook his head, "Nothing has been discussed yet. I just tried to test her by giving her a New Year's gift, but the girl blushed and refused to respond."

Chu Xuanchi sat face to face with her and stretched out his hand towards her. "They say that an elder sister-in-law is like a mother. Does Zhao Zhao really treat Xue'er as her own daughter?"

Mo Zhaohua passed his hand to him with understanding, "Xue'er's life is pitiful. If we don't worry about her, do we expect others to do the same?"

This other person is most likely an enemy. The more Chu Xuanchi cares about Mu Xueyan, the more others can use her to restrain her.

When Mu Xueyan first entered Shengjing, Prince Jin had set his sights on her. The actions of Prince Qi and Prince Rui were also very suspicious. Fortunately, she did not fall into their trap.

Speaking of which, we have to thank Xiao Yan. Because of his presence, he attracted Mu Xueyan's attention, and she could no longer see anyone else.

Chu Xuanchi held Mo Zhaohua's soft hand and gently stroked it with his thumb, "My Zhaozhao is so good. Such a kind heart will surely be rewarded."

Mo Zhaohua was doing this out of selfishness, and he didn't expect any blessings. "I'm not being kind, I'm just loving you and loving your dog."

"Okay, I'm the house and Xue'er is the crow." Chu Xuanchi chuckled, "But no matter what, I'm glad that you can live in harmony."

Mo Zhaohua said: "I have never thought of targeting Xue'er, and I believe that my husband will not make it difficult for me. It's good as it is now."

Chu Xuanchi sighed with relief, "Xue'er is sensible now, I am relieved. As for marriage, we will see when the time comes."

The couple chatted all the way until they finally arrived at the palace gate, where they stopped talking, got off the carriage and walked into the palace.

They planned to do the same as last time, first paying a visit to Emperor Wenzong, and then going to Shoukang Palace to pay their respects to Empress Dowager Yuande.

Now that Emperor Wenzong had sealed the imperial seal, he no longer needed to go to the previous court. He had been staying in his sleeping palace, Chengqian Palace, these past few days, enjoying a rare moment of leisure.

Upon learning that Chu Xuanchi and his wife had come to the palace to pay a visit, he chuckled, "This old fifth brother is really good at taking some time off, rushing to pay his respects during the palace banquet."

Li Tuquan spoke for Chu Xuanchi, "Your Highness Prince Yu is not feeling well. Compared to the first half year after returning to Beijing, it is good to be able to do this."

Emperor Wenzong thought of how he had never left his house before, and his smile widened. "Indeed, it shows that Princess Yu is quite capable."

While they were talking, Chu Xuanchi and Mo Zhaohua came into the hall and bowed respectfully.

Emperor Wenzong gently offered him a seat, and then asked with concern, "Old Fifth looks well, how is your health?"

Chu Xuanchi's face was no longer as cold as before, "Father, except for my leg which is still hard to walk, everything else is fine now."

"That's good." Emperor Wenzong comforted him, "Don't worry about your legs. After all, it's a difficult disease. Give the Imperial Hospital some time."

Chu Xuanchi relaxed, "I am not in a hurry. I have fought for so many years. I will just take a long vacation and take good care of myself."

"Has Old Fifth come to terms with it?" Emperor Wenzong said, looking at Mo Zhaohua, "Or is it because my daughter-in-law has trained you well and changed your personality?"

Chu Xuanchi held Emperor Wenzong in his arms and cleared Mo Zhaohua, "Although the princess has made contributions, the grace of the emperor is the greatest comfort to me."

Emperor Wenzong was overjoyed when he heard this. "Since Princess Yu has made great contributions, she will be rewarded generously. I cannot treat my good daughter-in-law unfairly."

What he was most worried about was that Chu Xuanchi would become too successful and threaten his throne, so he deliberately suppressed him.

Now he just gave some small favors, and Chu Xuanchi was so grateful. It was obvious that he had no ambitions, so he could barely rest assured.

Mo Zhaohua stood up and bowed, "Thank you for your grace, father."

Emperor Wenzong made a startling statement, "Old Fifth, take advantage of the spring break to have a good rest. You will be busy next year."

"Why?" Chu Xuanchi had a guess in his mind, but deliberately misunderstood, "Father, do you want me to train the Iron Cavalry?"

As the saying goes, the emperor's mind is hard to predict. If he knew Emperor Wenzong's thoughts too well, the other party would be wary and on guard against him.

Emperor Wenzong said: "You have trained the Iron Cavalry well, and the people below know what to do. You should have a seat in the court.

This was exactly what Chu Xuanchi had guessed, but he pretended to be surprised, "Father, do you want me to attend the court?"

Emperor Wenzong's delegation of power meant that he relaxed his guard against him. Chu Xuanchi knew this day would come, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon.

But he didn't dare to be too happy. Perhaps Emperor Wenzong was just testing him. He had to be cautious so as not to fall into Emperor Wenzong's trap.

Emperor Wenzong said, "Yes, Lao Wu's intelligence is not limited to arranging troops. I believe you are both civil and military, and a loyal minister."

Chu Xuanchi laughed at himself, "Father, how can I go to court in this state? Wouldn't that bring shame to Dongling? Do you think there is no one left in Dongling?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? My children are the best among men!" Emperor Wenzong consoled him, "Don't worry, I will arrange a position for you."

Chu Xuanchi pretended to refuse and lowered his attitude, "Father, this is absolutely not allowed. It is really inappropriate for a son to behave like this."

"Are you going to disobey the emperor's order, Old Five?" The more he showed weakness, the more relieved Emperor Wenzong became, and the more determined he became to let him attend court and participate in government affairs.

"Your son dare not." Chu Xuanchi bowed and seemed to agree reluctantly, but in fact he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Emperor Wenzong looked at Mo Zhaohua again and said, "Princess Yu, when you go back, please persuade Old Five. Your words are more effective than mine."

Mo Zhaohua was extremely terrified. "Father, your words are too serious. How dare I compare myself to you? Your Majesty will definitely follow your orders."

Emperor Wenzong was very satisfied with her attitude, and turned to ask Chu Xuanchi, "Does Lao Wu have a favorite department? I can arrange it for you."
