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

Royal Palace, Qinzheng Hall.

Chu Xuanchi came to the emperor as planned regarding Mo Yun's matter.

He pleaded, "Father, please don't vent your anger on the princess regarding Minister Mo's matter."

Emperor Wenzong looked indifferent, "I haven't even mentioned it yet, and Chi'er is already rushing to speak well of Princess Yu?"

He already knew about Mo Yun's imprisonment of his mother, but he never thought of taking his anger out on Mo Zhaohua.

Chu Xuanchi said: "Married women should obey their husbands. Since the princess is now my son's wife, I should think about it."

Husband and wife share the same honor and disgrace. He has the right to speak for Mo Zhaohua, and outsiders would not think that it is because of love.

Emperor Wenzong asked with a smile, "Since Chi'er knows that a married woman should obey her husband, why should I vent my anger on Princess Yu?"

Every time the spies in Prince Yu's Palace reported news, they said that Prince Yu and his wife got along harmoniously, and he was relieved to hear that.

On the other hand, the news coming from Prince Jin's Mansion and Prince Qi's Mansion was always unsatisfactory, either due to jealousy or conspiracy.

However, he knew very well that it was only because Chu Xuan was disabled. If there were more people in the backyard, it would not be possible for them to live in such peace and tranquility.

Chu Xuanchi bowed, "Thank you, father. Now the princess can rest assured. She has been so frightened these past few days that she can't eat."

He exaggerated to win Mo Yaohua's favor. The more Emperor Wenzong valued her, the more she could stimulate Mo Yaohua's emotions.

Emperor Wenzong became increasingly dissatisfied with Mo Yun. "This Mo Yun first favored his concubine and killed his wife, and now he has imprisoned his biological mother. This is really too much."

Chu Xuanchi added fuel to the fire, "Especially during the examination period, the students will probably spread this matter to all parts of Dongling."

"Who said it wasn't true?" Emperor Wenzong said, "Princess Yu knew about this a long time ago, but she deliberately concealed it. Does Chi'er know about it too?"

The fact that Mo Zhaohua had uncovered the matter and sent Madam Mo to the Mo Mansion had already spread among the people, so he naturally knew about it.

Chu Xuanchi admitted frankly, "The princess did tell me, but he is her father, and we also want to save some face."

Emperor Wenzong frowned, "Did Mo Yun really do such a treasonous thing just for that concubine's daughter?"

Chu Xuanchi nodded, "According to the princess' grandmother, Mo Yun was afraid that she would tell the matter and affect the Sixth Prince's concubine."

With just a few words, he changed the topic to Chu Xuanhan. I believe Emperor Wenzong will have his own thoughts.

"What kind of concubine did the Sixth Prince marry?" Emperor Wenzong was furious. "She is so disrespectful and unfilial, and has no manners at all."

Chu Xuanchi avoided the topic and said, "This is Sixth Prince's family affair, so I am not in a position to interfere. I believe Sixth Prince will handle it well."

"What can he handle?" Emperor Wenzong lowered his eyes, "Forget it, Chi'er, please leave. Princess Yu doesn't need to worry about this matter."

"Thank you, father. I'll take my leave now." Chu Xuanchi bowed respectfully and was pushed out of the Qinzheng Hall by the eunuch.

Wuying was not allowed to enter without a reason, so he waited outside the hall. When Chu Xuanchi came out, he immediately took the wheelchair.

Chu Xuanchi groaned, "I haven't greeted my grandmother for a long time. Today, the Inspection Office is free, so let's go to Shoukang Palace."

"Yes, master." Wuying knew very well that he was not going to pay respects, but to test the waters with Empress Dowager Yuande.

***

In teahouses and taverns, the story about Mo Yun was still spreading, already overshadowing the imperial examination.

A few people were sitting by the window of a teahouse, drinking tea and chatting leisurely.

Tea Drinker A said as if offering a treasure: "The latest news is that the Minister of Revenue imprisoned his mother for Prince Qi's concubine."

"Oh?" Tea Drinker B became interested, "Tell me the details quickly."

Tea Drinker A narrated the story, "Prince Qi's concubine returned to her parents' home a few days ago and cursed Madam Mo..."

"As a granddaughter, how can I curse my grandmother like this? The upbringing of the Shangshu Mansion is really not commendable."

Tea guest C shook his head repeatedly and raised the issue to the entire Shangshu Mansion with just one sentence, attracting the attention of the people at the next table.

Someone next door answered, "I didn't believe before that children raised by concubines were not presentable, but now I have to believe it."

His friend at the same table immediately retorted, "That's a bit of a generalization. I think it depends on the person."

Tea Guest A took over the conversation again, "It really depends on the person. Some children raised by concubines are not bad."

Tea guest B added, "But she is indeed not as knowledgeable as the wife. After all, the concubine herself has limited knowledge."

Someone from another table joined the conversation, "I heard that the illegitimate son raised by another concubine in the Shangshu Mansion is quite good."

My friend at the same table said, "It's probably because that aunt originally followed the mistress, so she must have learned something from her."

Tea guest B brought the topic back to the topic, "We've strayed off topic. Let's get back to Prince Qi's concubine. Why did she curse her grandmother?"

Tea Guest C said, "No matter what the reason is, she shouldn't curse, just like Minister Mo shouldn't imprison his biological mother."

Tea guest B agreed, "That's right, I'm just curious, is Minister Mo afraid that the old lady will tell others about this, so he imprisoned my mother?"

The person at the next table responded, "I think so. After all, the whole Shengjing City knows that Minister Mo favors this concubine's daughter."

His friend sighed, "It is true that one should marry a virtuous wife. Just look at the difference between Minister Mo's two daughters and you will know the importance of a virtuous wife."

Another friend said, "Minister Mo is really confused. He doesn't cherish the daughter of a noble family, but instead favors a vixen."

Speaking of Rong Qing, Tea Guest B recalled what happened last year, "No wonder Miss Rong wants to divorce. This is really a way out of suffering."

Tea guest B agreed, "That's right. With the family tradition of the Fuguo Mansion, Miss Rong will definitely not be bullied when she returns to her parents' home."

Another unfamiliar tea drinker joined the conversation, "Not only is he not upset, but I heard that the Duke of Fuguo dotes on him, and the Crown Prince respects him."

His friend chimed in, "I've also heard that Miss Rong and the Crown Prince's wife are as close as sisters, and my nephew is also respectful and filial to them."

Another person laughed and said, "I wonder which girl will be so lucky in the future to marry into the Fuguogong Mansion and become the granddaughter-in-law."

Tea Drinker B laughed along, "Miss Sun from the Duke of Fuguo's Mansion had her coming-of-age ceremony years ago. I'm afraid she will be joining the royal family."

Tea guest C pinched his chin, thinking, "Now only Prince Rui is of marriageable age, is he going to marry into Prince Rui's palace?"

Tea Drinker A disagreed, "That may not be the case. There is only one person in the East Palace, and the other positions are still vacant."

"But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's health..." Tea Drinker B stopped talking abruptly. This matter was not suitable to be discussed in public.

Tea Drinker A brought the conversation back to Mo Yun and his daughter, and chatted for a long time with his friends at the same table and tea drinks at several tables nearby.

The news about the reason why Mo Yun imprisoned his mother spread from this teahouse that day and soon spread to other teahouses and taverns.

This time, it was not only Mo Yun who was pushed to the forefront, but also Mo Yaohua, and Chu Xuanhan was occasionally mentioned.

It’s just that because of his status as a prince, people dare not talk too wildly about him.
