Rebirth of the Return of Chu

When they reached the side door of the imperial palace, Mu Chu showed the Prince's Eastern Palace token to the guard at the gate and stuffed a silver ingot into the guard's pocket.

The guard then ordered someone to pass the message.

About half an hour later, someone from the East Palace came. It was Qin Muyun's maid who came to lead them in.

When he arrived at the East Palace, Mu Chu knelt down as soon as he saw Mu Yun and said, "Sister, please save my uncle."

Qin Muyun helped her up: "Sit down and tell me. I heard about your uncle's affairs. The emperor had no intention of making things difficult for him. He insisted on it and angered the emperor. This matter should have been easy to deal with. As long as he agreed to grant the marriage, the rumors would be broken. Your uncle's insistence will only add fuel to the fire."

Mu Chu shook his head: "Let me see my uncle."

Qin Muyun was a little embarrassed.

"It's not that I don't want to help you. You know the palace is heavily guarded. I really can't take you to Chang'an Palace."

Mu Chu thought for a moment: "Can I see the emperor?"

"It's a little difficult, but I'll take the risk with you this time. I'll take you there. At this time, the emperor is usually in the Imperial Garden."

Qin Muyun was reluctant, but he still took Mu Chu to the Imperial Garden. As soon as he walked to the entrance, he was stopped. Qin Muyun asked him: "Eunuch Fu, my father is inside. I need to see my father for something. Can you make some allowance?"

"Is the Crown Princess here regarding General Qin's matter?" the eunuch asked.

"Yes, this matter is a little strange. It concerns my third sister's innocence. I want to report the truth to my father."

"Crown Princess, you should go back. The Emperor said that only General Qin can change this matter. Others should stop wasting their time."

After hearing this, Qin Muyun knew that the emperor was unwilling to see him, so he had to give up.

"Third sister, let's go back."

Mu Chu didn't listen at all and knelt down stubbornly: "If the emperor doesn't see you, then I will kneel here and wait for the emperor to come out."

Qin Muyun was a little embarrassed, but he couldn't persuade Mu Chu, so he had no choice but to stand there and wait with her.

"You all don't want to live anymore. So you just kneel down." Eunuch Fu angrily swung his braid and went in.

Mu Chu knelt stubbornly at the gate of the imperial garden.

After kneeling for an hour, the Emperor and Concubine Wang came out chatting and laughing. Seeing Mu Chu, he frowned and asked, "You haven't left yet?" His voice was filled with displeasure.

"Your Majesty, I beg you to revoke your order and let my uncle go."

"Hmph! Do you know that Qin Yuanyi is a general of my Golden Phoenix? Do you know what you are doing? Do you want to destroy him?" The emperor said angrily.

"I ask for nothing else, only that Your Majesty grant me a marriage and do not make things difficult for him. All this happened because my father asked him to take care of me, and it is up to me to end it. I hope Your Majesty will grant this," said Mu Chu, bowing deeply.

Concubine Wang next to her said, "Your Majesty, I think what this girl said makes sense. Why don't you fulfill her wish? Qing'er doesn't have a concubine yet, and he has some feelings for this girl. In my opinion, it's better to do it, and it won't be unfair to her."

Mu Chu had already lost all hope. As long as the person she married wasn't him, it didn't matter who she married.

Qin Muyun said anxiously: "I hope your Majesty will think twice. I think this matter cannot be rushed. The matter is indeed a little strange. I believe my uncle and my third sister are innocent."

Concubine Wang was very unhappy that Qin Muyun had disrupted her plans, but looking at the emperor's expression, she did not dare to overstep her authority and just smiled and said nothing.

The emperor frowned, as if it was difficult to make a decision, and then he said: "Qin Muchu, you once asked me to decide your own marriage. Now the situation is like this, if I grant you a marriage, people will think that I am going back on my word. For your father's sake, I will give you time to choose. Go back to the palace with the Crown Princess today, and don't leave the palace. Tomorrow I will arrange for the princes of various families to enter the palace and let you choose. Then you can ask me to grant you a marriage, okay?"

Mu Chu kowtowed: "Your Majesty, I thank you for your grace."

After going back with Qin Muyun, Mu Chuyi couldn't sleep. Qin Muyun rarely went over to sleep with her. The two of them lay on the bed, feeling a little awkward. They had never been so close in their memory.

Qin Muyun said: "Chu'er, I know you have been content since you were a child. I envy you very much. I am too weak and hesitate about everything, which is why I am in this situation now.

But I know what is right and wrong. The Third Prince and the Wang family are together. You must not choose the Third Prince tomorrow."

"Don't worry, big sister. I know what I'm doing. My father's revenge has not yet been avenged. I won't destroy myself."

"That's good. I think Han Feiyu, the son of the Prime Minister's family, can be a candidate. Also, the young marquis of the Yongding Marquis family is unengaged. He is about your age and also from a noble family." Qin Muyun introduced the information he knew to Mu Chu one by one.

Mu Chu kept it in mind silently and developed some affection for this sister.
