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

"The Princess Yu, who was taught by my mother-in-law, and the concubine Qi, who was taught by Master Mo, are all seen by my father, the emperor, and my mother, the queen."

Chu Xuanchi used Emperor Wenzong as an excuse. Since the wedding, Emperor Wenzong has given Mo Zhaohua many rewards, which shows that he is satisfied.

In contrast, Mo Yaohua had nothing, let alone the favor and reward from the Emperor and Empress, he had not even seen the Emperor's face.

Mo Yun hurriedly stood up and bowed respectfully to Chu Xuanchi, "It is my incompetence and my failure in educating my children."

"Master Mo is too modest. It is too early to say this now. Let's wait until your eldest son passes the imperial examination before we speak."

Because of Mo Zhaohua's relationship, Chu Xuanchi became concerned about the affairs of the Shangshu Mansion, and only then did he know that Mo Shenghua was going to take part in the Spring Examination.

He specifically asked Shuying to investigate and found that Mo Shenghua did have some talent, but was far inferior to Rong Shen.

"Yes..." Mo Yun didn't dare to have too much hope for Mo Shenghua. He didn't expect to be in the top three, but just passing the exam was enough.

Chu Xuanchi said: "If he can pass the exam, it means you have something to recommend you. If he can't, then you should really doubt your ability."

"..."Mo Yun suddenly became worried about his career.

Although Chu Xuanchi had lost the military power in southern Xinjiang, he now had the emperor's favor, so his words naturally carried a certain weight.

If he were to make a fuss about this matter and flatter Emperor Wenzong, it would undoubtedly affect his own career.

On the other side, Mo Zhaohua had already entered Yishou Hall.

Madam Mo's health had improved somewhat, but she caught a cold again when she went out to look for Mo Yun on New Year's Eve.

She developed a high fever that night and was unable to get up on New Year's Day, so naturally she was still lying in bed today.

Mo Zhaohua saw that she looked sick and had lost all her former dignity, like a candle in the wind, and he did not feel any sympathy for her.

In her previous life, whether Mo Zhaohua returned home or the old lady came to see her, she would mention Mo Yaohua and ask her to help more.

It was not until she was reborn that she realized that the old lady was not only partial to her, but also used her to pave the way for Mo Yaohua to become the queen.

The most important thing is that after Rong Qing divorced in her previous life, she tarnished Rong Qing's reputation by saying she was disrespectful to her mother-in-law, forcing Rong Qing to become a nun.

Not to mention sympathy for such a vicious old woman, it was already a mercy for her not to kill her with her own hands. It was also good that she was torturing her like this now.

Mo Zhaohua stood in front of the bed, looking down at the old lady, "Do you need me to ask Your Highness to ask the imperial physician to come and see Grandmother?"

Madam Mo was quite polite. "Don't bother the princess. It's not good during the Chinese New Year. I'll just take care of it for a few more days."

Mo Zhaohua didn't force it, "How did you take care of the old lady? It's so cold today, don't you know how to keep warm?"

She was usually very gentle to her servants, and many servants in other mansions dreamed of having a master like her.

Now that she was furious with the old lady, if it were to be spread out, no one would think she was being harsh, but would only praise her for being filial.

Xiao Cui and Xiao Xi, who were now serving the old lady personally, immediately knelt down and apologized, "Princess, please calm down."

Mo Zhaohua lowered her eyes and glanced at them, but did not blame them anymore. She did this not for fame, but for Madam Liu.

She asked knowingly, "By the way, Grandmother, you are sick, why don't you see Aunt Liu serving you? Is this old woman being lazy?"

Ever since she married into Prince Yu's Palace as a concubine, she no longer used honorific titles to address the old lady, and was unwilling to even call her "you".

Madam Mo shuddered and spoke unsteadily, "Don't, don't mention her..."

Madam Liu died in the well of Yishou Hall. When she was found, her body had turned white from being soaked.

No one was implicated in this incident, and it was simply thought that she was old and accidentally fell into the well while fetching water.

After the old lady witnessed her death, she had nightmares for several nights and still shudders when she mentions it.

Because of disgust, the well in the yard was sealed that day, and now there is a special person responsible for fetching water from other yards.

It snows frequently in Shengjing's cold winter, and the roads are slippery. The servants have to go out to fetch water, which is a huge burden for them.

Mo Zhaohua pretended to be angry, "Grandma, why are you so excited all of a sudden? Could it be that the old woman didn't do her job well and irritated Grandma?"

Qiao had told her the news years ago that the death of Madam Liu had upset the old lady, who was afraid that she would turn into a ghost and come back to claim her life.

The old lady has been domineering in the mansion for many years. Although Madam Liu is her personal nanny, she still gets punished to some extent.

Feeling guilty, the old lady had nightmares one after another, fearing that Matron Liu would come for revenge and would not let her go even if she became a ghost.

"No, no..." Madam Mo hurriedly stopped talking, "She's already dead. It's unlucky to mention her in the new year."

The more she was afraid, the more Mo Zhaohua mentioned it, "The last time I came to visit her, she seemed to be in good health. How could she have died?"

Madam Mo thought of Madam Liu's corpse that had turned pale from soaking. "Princess, please don't mention her again."

"Well, it's unlucky indeed." Mo Zhaohua said, "Grandmother is ill, so I won't bother you any more. You should take a good rest."

Whether in life or work, too much is as bad as too little. If she pushes too hard, the old lady will make a big fuss, which will be disadvantageous to her.

Seeing that she was about to leave, Madam Mo quickly stopped her and said, "Wait a moment..."

Mo Zhaohua turned around and asked, "Grandma, do you have anything to tell me?"

Madam Mo hesitated for a moment before giving up and said, "Forget it, Princess, go and get busy."

Mo Zhaohua guessed that something must have happened to her, and most likely she was asking for help, otherwise she wouldn't be so embarrassed to talk about it.

Her eyes flickered as she thought of Mo Yun's early departure from the New Year's Palace Banquet. The old lady's request might be related to this.

Then a light bulb went off in his head. The old lady's condition improved and then worsened, which might be related to what happened to Mo Yun that night.

So she deliberately said, "I have to get busy. There is no mistress in the mansion, and some people are so disloyal to grandma."

"What does the princess want to do?" the old lady exclaimed. She felt that Mo Zhaohua might want to step in and meddle in his mother's family affairs.

This is exactly what Mo Zhaohua meant. "As a married woman, I shouldn't interfere, but I can't tolerate them being so unruly."

The old lady's face darkened, "Princess, are you going to teach the people in the palace a lesson?"

Mo Zhaohua said righteously, "My father is busy with official duties and has no time to take care of the inner courtyard. As the legitimate daughter, I should vent my grandmother's anger."

Madam Mo was somewhat relieved to see her protecting her like this, but she had to refuse, "No, this has nothing to do with them."

The more she tried to stop him, the more determined Mo Zhaohua became. "Grandmother, please don't be soft-hearted. Kind people are often bullied, and kind horses are often ridden."

After saying that, she walked out. The old lady couldn't stop her and didn't dare to stop her. She could only anxiously shout, "Princess..."

Mo Zhaohua turned a deaf ear to her and went outside, where Lan Ruyu and Qiao, who had already come to greet her, were waiting.

After she left, she sat down at the main seat and angrily asked, "Lan, Qiao, how did you serve grandma?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, he was trying to accuse someone of something, but most of what he said was for Old Madam Mo in the inner room to hear.
