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

Chu Xuanhan said with guilt, "It is because of me that I have implicated the young lady. I will be responsible for her."

Chu Xuan asked, "I wonder how Sixth Brother plans to take responsibility? You are discussing marriage now, but are you going to marry her?"

Chu Xuanhan said, "Since Miss Mo San has given Xuanhan a clean virginity, Xuanhan should give her a legitimate status."

As a legitimate princess, the eldest princess cares more about the legitimate and illegitimate princesses. "Status? Is she worthy of it with her status?"

Chu Xuanhan looked embarrassed, "Aunt Royal, do you think you shouldn't be held responsible? Wouldn't it be disrespectful to the royal family if this gets out?"

The princess said confidently: "I can shut those people up. Besides, you are also being plotted against."

Chu Xuanhan said righteously, "No matter who schemed against me, Xuanhan has wronged Miss Mo San."

The princess not only looked down on Mo Yaohua, she even doubted her, "If she did it herself, you will also be responsible?"

Chu Xuanhan knew it well, so he naturally wanted to protect Mo Yaohua. "Hasn't it been proven before that she wasn't the one who did it?"

The eldest princess showed her elder's momentum and said, "The matter has not been concluded yet. We will talk about other things after the results are out."

Mo Yaohua was anxious. Her plan had failed and further investigation might expose the truth. It would have no impact on Chu Xuanhan, but she would have to bear the blame.

She quietly looked at Chu Xuanhan, who gave her a reassuring look. This eye contact escaped the eldest princess's eyes, but was seen by the other two.

Mo Zhaohua and Chu Xuanchi both knew that the two had been having an affair for a long time and were the masterminds behind today's incident, so they were naturally paying attention to their every move.

Time flies, and as it was getting dark outside, the guards from the princess's mansion finally came in, escorting a maid.

She knelt down and begged for mercy, "I know I was wrong, please spare my life, Princess..."

Chu Xuanhan narrowed his eyes, "Isn't this the maid who led me to the courtyard to rest?"

Mo Zhaohua and Chu Xuanchi looked at each other and understood each other tacitly that this was probably a scapegoat found for Mo Yaohua.

The princess asked sharply, "What's going on?"

"This lowly slave had his heart set on His Highness Prince Qi. He pretended to serve His Highness a meal, replaced the strong liquor with something to get His Highness drunk, and also lit a beautiful woman in the room beforehand to lure His Highness to rest. As a result, he accidentally harmed Miss Mo San."

The guards had already interrogated the maid and reported the results of their investigation immediately, which sounded quite plausible.

The maid was not allowed to enter the room and did not know that there was someone in the room, so she could only leave with hatred. Later, she was discovered because of the effect of the drug.

The maid knocked her head loudly, "Princess, please forgive me. I will never dare to..."

Chu Xuanhan slammed the table in anger, "You bold and slutty slave, it is you who tarnished my reputation and caused me to destroy Miss Mo's innocence!"

The eldest princess was also furious and just wanted to settle the matter as soon as possible. "Now that the truth has been revealed, this lowly maid deserves death. Drag her out and beat her to death immediately!"

Two guards restrained the maid and dragged her out, leaving her wailing in fear, "Princess, spare me, Your Highness Prince Qi, save me, I know I was wrong—"

"Stop..." Chu Xuanchi was about to stop the man for re-interrogation, but was interrupted by Chu Xuanhan as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Thank you, Auntie, for quickly finding out the truth and giving justice to my nephew and Miss Mo San."

Before Chu Xuanhan finished speaking, the maid's screams were heard outside, and the guards were beating her with sticks.

But the person is not dead after all, so there is still a chance. Chu Xuanchi wanted to stop him, but Mo Zhaohua shook his head at him.

Mo Zhaohua knew very well that even if Chu Xuanchi could rescue the maid, he might not be able to successfully pry her open her mouth.

Chu Xuanhan is a poisonous snake hiding in the dark, afraid of being exposed in front of others. He would never take the risk without absolute certainty.

This maidservant either has something on him or someone in her family is in his control. By then, Chu Xuanchi will not be able to get any results and will offend the eldest princess instead.

Chu Xuanchi was not afraid of not being able to pry open the maid's mouth, but since Mo Zhaohua stopped him, he gave up the idea.

The maid's screams outside gradually weakened, and finally there was no other sound except the sound of caning.

A guard came in and knelt on one knee, "Princess, the slave has been beaten to death!"

The eldest princess had a gloomy face and said, "Back off!"

The guards quickly left with the maid's body, and someone came to deal with the execution scene.

Chu Xuanhan brought up the old matter again, "Aunt Royal, the matter is clear now. Miss Mo San is innocent, and your nephew should be held responsible."

The princess looked at Mo Yaohua and said, "Since she is yours and you don't have any concubines at home, let her be the first one."

Mo Yaohua lowered her head, looking obedient, but in fact she was burning with anger. If she was just going to be a concubine, why would she bother with all the calculations and make it known to everyone.

Chu Xuanhan wanted to fight for her, "Aunt, Miss Mo San did not do this voluntarily, but was schemed against by others. It is really unfair for her to be a concubine."

"You are a prince, and even if she is a concubine, you have to look at her background. Why do you treat her unfairly?" In the eyes of the eldest princess, a concubine's daughter from an ordinary family is no different from a maid.

Chu Xuanhan was slightly displeased, "Aunt Royal, even if there hadn't been this disaster, Miss Mo San would still be worthy of being my nephew's concubine."

The eldest princess's gloomy face was filled with anger. "So what do you want? You are just a concubine's daughter, and you want to take the title of the legitimate concubine? Do you care about the face of the royal family?"

Not to mention the legitimate concubine, those women in the palace, even if they were just low-ranking concubines, were basically the legitimate daughters of noble families.

Chu Xuanhan quickly denied, "Given Miss Mo's background, it's impossible for her to be a legitimate concubine, but a concubine..."

He and Mo Yaohua had already discussed that the position of principal wife would be given to the girl from aristocratic family who provided him with assistance, and he would plan for her to become empress after he had firmly established his throne.

The princess interrupted sternly, "She is not even worthy of being a concubine, and you still want to promote her to be a concubine. Do you really think there is no threshold for the royal family?"

Not even a concubine is worthy!

These five words hurt Mo Yaohua's heart. She and Mo Zhaohua had the same father but different mothers, but the difference was so huge!

Chu Xuanhan wanted to persuade her again, "Aunt, the royal family has its own threshold, but you also need to maintain your dignity, otherwise you will be criticized..."

He didn't need the eldest princess' consent to marry a concubine, but now he was trying to win her support so that it would be easier to deal with Emperor Wenzong. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been planning this.
