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

Fortunately, Li Tuquan soon heard Emperor Wenzong asking him to get up, and his voice was somewhat gentle.

Li Tuquan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Even today, he still feels that serving the emperor is like serving a tiger.

"We'll see then. If Southern Xinjiang needs him, even if he has other talents, I will have no choice but to let him go."

Emperor Wenzong said this, but when the time really came, he would probably have to consider for a long time before making a decision.

Li Tuquan stepped forward to pour tea, "It would be best if the war could be quelled. War is a waste of money and manpower, and is extremely detrimental to the country and the people."

Due to constant wars in recent years, the treasury was empty, and many ministers suggested that taxes should be increased, but they were all rejected by Emperor Wenzong.

The former emperor believed the slander and increased taxes, which made the people suffer terribly and eventually they rose up in rebellion.

As the saying goes, past experience is a lesson for the future. Emperor Wenzong wanted to be a famous ruler, so it was impossible for him to fill the national treasury in this way.

Emperor Wenzong sighed, "I wanted to do that, and I had hoped that Lao Wu could fulfill my wish, but I never thought that he almost lost his life."

Li Tuquan was filled with righteous indignation. "No one could have imagined that the deputy general whom His Highness relied on most would actually betray His Highness for money and status."

If not for this, Chu Xuanchi would not have been seriously injured, nor would he have been afraid to open up to others and suspected Mo Zhaohua for so long.

Emperor Wenzong also sighed, "Yes, Lao Wu trusted the wrong person, but fortunately he saved his life and has a chance to start over."

When he got the news, he was secretly delighted. Chu Xuanchi, the invincible god of war, had finally fallen from the altar.

The emperor has always been afraid of people becoming too successful and threatening him, especially a prince, so he did everything he could to prevent Chu Xuanchi from recovering.

He regretted the subsequent tense war in southern Xinjiang, but as long as southern Xinjiang was not lost, he still cared more about the imperial power.

Now seeing that Chu Xuanchi had no ambitions and respected him greatly, he looked back on the past and felt a little sad.

***

That night, at the Prince's Palace.

Chu Xuanchi still held a dinner party.

This is because it is still the new year and also to calm people down.

After the banquet, Mu Xueyan returned to the backyard with Chu Xuanchi and his wife.

Xiao Yan returned to his yard in the front yard alone, and did not show any abnormality from beginning to end.

Fangfei Garden is some distance away from the main courtyard. Mu Xueyan wanted to go her separate ways, but was stopped by Chu Xuanchi.

He said calmly, "Xue'er, your sister-in-law and I have something to tell you. Please follow us to the main courtyard first."

Mu Xueyan responded quickly, "Yes, Brother Yu Wang, sister-in-law."

Several people came to the main courtyard and sat down in the main hall. Chu Xuanchi asked, "What do you think of Xiao Yan?"

"That's very good. You are kind-hearted, gentle and considerate. Why do you suddenly ask this?" Mu Xueyan was full of praise.

Chu Xuanchi said in a deep voice: "If I tell you that he approached you deliberately because he wants my life, what will you do?"

"What, what do you mean?" Mu Xueyan was shocked when she heard it, and looked at Mo Zhaohua who was sitting in the main seat in disbelief.

Mo Zhaohua spoke softly, "Xue'er, I know you can understand what your husband means, but you just can't accept it for the time being."

Chu Xuanchi also gently comforted her, "Don't worry, calm down first."

Mu Xueyan didn't say anything else, just took a deep breath. Just then, Zhenzhu brought the tea and she took another sip of it.

Then she spoke, "Xue'er knows that you have had suspicions for a long time, but now you have evidence. So, who is he?"

Chu Xuanchi was prepared for her to make a big fuss if she didn't believe him, and he also warned Wuying in advance not to let the news get out.

Seeing her reaction now, I was a little surprised. "The identity is currently unknown. As for the evidence, I can say a few things..."

He started with the coincidence of Xiao Yan saving her, and talked about the assassin's reaction when Xiao Yan blocked the sword for him on the night of the Nanzhao assassin's night attack.

Finally, this was a deliberate test by Mo Zhaohua. Xiao Yan left the house at night last night, and the assassin came to assassinate him today.

"Xue'er, we know that you have feelings for Xiao Yan. It's hard for you to accept this, but that's why we have to tell you."

After Chu Xuanchi finished speaking, Mo Zhaohua also spoke. The couple worked together to persuade Mu Xueyan, fearing that she would make a fuss.

"Why is it him, why is it him..." Mu Xueyan didn't make a fuss, but just kept murmuring sadly.

Mo Zhaohua said softly: "Because he has been using you from the beginning. You should get out of it in time to avoid getting deeper and deeper into trouble."

Chu Xuanchi said: "Xue'er, if you feel that the evidence is not enough and refuse to believe it, I will give it to you as soon as I find more evidence."

Mo Zhaohua added: "We don't want Xue'er to be hurt by him. We are telling you this now because we hope Xue'er can take precautions and not be deceived by him."

"Sister-in-law..." Mu Xueyan looked at Mo Zhaohua and sobbed out of sadness, sob..."

Xiao Yan was the first man she liked. Although she was not completely devoted to him, she did fall in love with him after all.

Mo Zhaohua quickly stood up, walked to her, took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears, "Don't cry, Xue'er still has us."

Mu Xueyan hugged her and buried her head in her arms, "Sister-in-law, Xue'er is so sad. How could he lie to Xue'er..."

Mo Zhaohua gently stroked her head, "Don't cry, don't cry. Our Xue'er deserves a better man, not a liar."

Mu Xueyan burst into tears, but Chu Xuanchi smiled. Between love and family affection, she chose the latter, which was him.

Seeing his aunt and sister-in-law like this, he felt indescribable satisfaction and relief in his heart. At this moment, he truly understood what it meant to have a harmonious family and everything will be prosperous.

Mo Zhaohua coaxed Mu Xueyan in a gentle voice for a long time. Chu Xuanchi turned his wheelchair over and comforted her gently.

With the concerted efforts of the couple, Mu Xueyan gradually stopped crying, and her eyes had become as red as rabbit eyes due to crying.

Mo Zhaohua felt distressed. Mu Xueyan had lived in Prince Yu's Mansion for so long that she had already treated her as her own aunt.

Mu Xueyan sniffed, "Brother and sister-in-law, what should Xue'er do? Should she ignore him from now on?"

Chu Xuanchi said, "You must not do this. From now on, Xue'er will have to be more patient and pretend to be nice to him, so that he won't see through her."

Mo Zhaohua was afraid that Mu Xueyan would be embarrassed, "Isn't this hurting Xueer? If Xueer can't do it, we can separate for a while."

Mu Xueyan asked aggrievedly, "How can we separate? Should we send Xue'er back to Southern Xinjiang? But Xue'er doesn't want to stay there alone anymore. Xue'er wants to have a home."

She had a family, her only family, and that was her mother. She never saw her father because she was a posthumous child.

It’s just that he was still young when his mother died, and he didn’t have much feeling for family affection. After following Chu Xuanchi, he was also loved.

Only after coming to Prince Yu's Mansion did she truly feel at home. How could she bear to go back now?

Chu Xuanchi couldn't bear to see her like this, "Xue'er, I'm sorry, it's me who has implicated you, wait and see..."
