That night.
The Imperial Palace, the main courtyard in the backyard.
Mo Zhaohua helped Chu Xuanchi lie down, and then he lay down beside him.
Chu Xuanchi hugged her habitually and said, "Today, I mentioned the matter of Mo Yun to my father."
"Your Majesty should not vent his anger on me, right?" Mo Zhaohua was actually a little worried that it would affect himself.
She knew that Emperor Wenzong liked obedient people the most, so since her marriage, she had been trying hard to be a good daughter-in-law.
If this incident affected Emperor Wenzong's impression of her, it would be difficult to restore his good impression.
Chu Xuanchi smiled and said, "Marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog. If Zhao Zhao marries me, she will be the daughter-in-law of the royal family. How can the emperor still be angry with me?"
Mo Zhaohua pretended not to care, "It doesn't matter if you vent your anger on me. Your Majesty will not kill me or let Mu Chi divorce me."
She said this just because she didn't want to make Henry Chu worry, otherwise he would definitely go to great lengths to win her favor.
Chu Xuanchi said: "Father did value Zhao Zhao because of me at first, but later Zhao Zhao convinced Father on his own."
"Your Majesty, do you really think I'm a good woman?" Because of Chu Xuanchi's incident, Mo Zhaohua not only hated Emperor Wenzong, but also lost his trust in him.
Because of this, she was always suspicious of Emperor Wenzong's kindness to Chu Xuanchi, worrying that he had some ulterior motive.
Chu Xuanchi smiled and asked, "You are well-educated, respectful, filial, dignified, virtuous, and well-mannered. What else can the emperor be dissatisfied with?"
"Mu Chi, you are too kind. This is just the basic quality of a lady. There are many such women in Shengjing City." Mo Zhaohua indeed thought so.
She was the daughter-in-law of Emperor Wenzong in her previous life. She knew that he liked women like this, so Mo Yaohua would never catch his eye.
Yuchi Jiuyue's personality was definitely not the kind of daughter-in-law that Emperor Wenzong liked, but her family background made her a good choice.
"Really?" Chu Xuanchi was puzzled. "Why do I see that none of the Sixth Prince's main wife and concubines can do this?"
Mo Zhaohua chuckled, "Maybe Prince Qi has a different look in his eyes, picking out the bad ones, or maybe he just doesn't like to follow the rules."
In his previous life, Chu Xuanhan also took two concubines as concubines. After he ascended the throne, in order to consolidate his position, he added many more concubines to the harem.
Among those concubines, the dignified and elegant ladies were not favored, while those who were independent and unique were more favored by him.
At first, Mo Yaohua would come to her to complain, but later not only did she stop coming, but her relationship with those favored concubines became better and better.
Mo Zhaohua himself, on the contrary, was on good terms with the ladies from prominent families. Now it seems that this is the case of birds of a feather flock together.
Chu Xuanchi agreed, "That makes sense. Old Six has been suppressed for too long, so his preferences are different and slightly twisted, which is understandable."
"I wonder if His Majesty will reprimand my father for the recent rumors." Mo Zhaohua actually hoped that Mo Yun would be punished by Emperor Wenzong.
Chu Xuanchi didn't care. "No problem. If Father wants to turn a blind eye, I have a way to force Father to punish him."
Mo Zhaohua thought about it carefully, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, "Now it is the Spring Examination, is Mu Chi trying to take advantage of the candidates?"
Chu Xuanchi was surprised but also a little frustrated. "Zhao Zhao reacted too quickly. It took me a long time to come up with this idea."
"This shows that Mu Chi and I really have a tacit understanding..." Mo Zhaohua took the initiative to kiss his lips to comfort him.
***
The next afternoon, at Prince Qi’s Mansion.
Chu Xuanhan walked into Wutong Garden with a gloomy face.
Mo Yaohua came out to greet him, "Liu Lang, you finally came to see Yaoyao."
However, when she saw Chu Xuanhan's face, her heart sank. It seemed like he was here to call her to task.
Chu Xuanhan entered the main hall without saying a word and sent everyone out, leaving only Mo Yaohua.
He asked her coldly, "Yaohua, when you went back to your mother's home that day, did you really curse your immortal grandmother?"
Mo Yaohua felt guilty, but refused to admit it frankly, "It's not a curse, Yaoyao just said it casually..."
"What did you say exactly?" Chu Xuanhan knew her quite well, and he knew that she must have really cursed.
Mo Yaohua whispered, "I asked my grandmother to see if that loser and idiot would be there to see her off when she dies..."
Chu Xuanhan was furious, "How can you say such a thing, in front of her? Even if you really think so, you can only keep it to yourself."
He looked down on Madam Mo. After all, he didn't even take Yuchi Kun, the general who defended the country, seriously, but he would never show it on his face.
Mo Yaohua defended, "Yaoyao was angry at the time, and she spoke too quickly and didn't pay attention. Who would have thought that she would faint because of this..."
Chu Xuanhan was so angry that he asked again, "Did your father really imprison the old woman for this matter?"
Mo Yaohua nodded, "Grandmother wanted to make the matter known to everyone, and father was afraid that it would affect Liu Lang, so he imprisoned her in the yard..."
"Why are you so impatient now?" Chu Xuanhan scolded, "If you continue like this, you will definitely ruin my plan."
Mo Yaohua shirked the blame, "It's all that bitch's fault. If she hadn't returned home suddenly, leaving father unable to prepare, this matter wouldn't have been discovered."
"Is it only her fault?" Seeing that she refused to admit her mistake, Chu Xuanhan suddenly felt disappointed.
Mo Yaohua continued to make excuses, "Grandma was wrong too. She knew it was a serious matter but still informed my second uncle and even spread it out."
"Who else is wrong?" Chu Xuanhan wanted her to realize her mistake so that she would never make the same mistake again.
Mo Yaohua thought for a moment and said, "Father shouldn't be put under house arrest. He should be persuaded with kind words. If persuasion doesn't work, then find a reason to send him to a temple."
Chu Xuanhan couldn't listen any longer, "That means everyone is wrong, but you are not at fault at all, right?"
"Yaoyao was wrong. She shouldn't have missed her mother's home and went back to visit her." Mo Yaohua admitted his mistake, but not because of this matter.
Henry Chu sneered, "Then am I also at fault for not being able to go back with you? Otherwise, this wouldn't have happened?"
Mo Yaohua felt that something was wrong with him today, "Liu Lang misunderstood, Yaoyao didn't mean that, and Liu Lang was not wrong either."
"Heh..." Chu Xuanhan had been thinking about her day and night, but now when facing her, he didn't even want to say a word.
"Liu Lang, are you angry?" Mo Yaohua was a little panicked. It was the first time she saw him like this.
Even when she lost her child and was suspected because of Jinqiu's matter, he did not treat her like this.
Chu Xuanhan asked back, "This matter has caused a great uproar in the city, and it has also implicated me. Shouldn't I be angry?"
Mo Yaohua was filled with righteous indignation, "No, Liu Lang should be angry with them for causing Liu Lang so much trouble."
Chu Xuanhan seemed to have just met her, and the way he looked at her was extremely unfamiliar. Is this still the woman he loves?
Mo Yaohua continued, "According to Yaoyao, we should send the old lady to the west as soon as possible so that mother can take charge of the family..."
Chu Xuanhan was puzzled. She knew that he didn't like these matters in the backyard, so why did she bring them up today?
