"That's how it is. I was forced into it. My mother was forced into prostitution. I can only get my father's permission to take my mother to 'Guanyunxuan' if I hand you over to him."

Seeing the disappointment in "Blood Purple Rose's" eyes, Qiu Yuance panicked and told her everything. Then he grabbed her hand.

“I admit that I was using you at first, but ever since you saved my mother and taught my four brothers a lesson in the ‘Azure Feather Kingdom’, I found myself falling in love with you.”

Qiu Yunze's eyes were filled with emotion, and "Xue Ziwei" softened a bit. Thinking of the tragic state of Qiu Yunze's mother, Ziyuan, her anger subsided considerably.

"If you are unwilling to return with me, I will not force you. Qingyu Kingdom is originally the territory of your Luo family. Father usurped the throne, and to be honest, I do not approve of it either, but..."

Seeing that "Blood Purple Rose" seemed to be softening, Qiu Yunce retreated to advance. Having spent many years in the brothel, he knew people's hearts very well, especially women's hearts.

“But if I don’t go back with you, your father will definitely not let your mother off the hook. After you recover, we will return to Qingyu Kingdom together.”

As for the Luo family's empire, I, a mere woman, have no interest in it. However, your father is inherently cruel; if he were to become the ruler, I fear it would bring untold suffering to the people.

"Blood Purple Rose" made a final compromise, and Qiu Yunce pressed on.

“I’ve thought about it. My father’s actions are unforgivable, but Qingyu Kingdom is already in a state of chaos. Unless a new monarch emerges, it will be difficult to change the current situation.”

Women still have a low status and cannot escape the possibility of becoming playthings. If the imperial seal can be retrieved, I would like to take its place and restore peace and tranquility to the Qingyu Kingdom.

Even if it weren't me, but someone better than my father, I would willingly serve him, clearing obstacles for him and restoring peace to Qingyu Kingdom. Luo Yun, are you willing to follow me?

Qiu Yunce took "Xue Ziwei's" hand again, speaking with such righteous indignation.

"I……"

The crimson lips of "Blood Purple Rose" had barely uttered a single word when a deep voice came from outside the door.

"She doesn't want to."

"Wang Feng? Is Prince Longxuan alright?"

Upon seeing Wang Feng enter, "Blood Purple Rose" inquired with concern.

"cough!"

Wang Feng didn't speak, but first sighed.

"Your subordinate came here to invite the Princess Consort to visit the Prince. He has been unconscious since he fell into a coma, and even the renowned physician Ouyang has been helpless."

"What? Li Mufeng's condition is that serious? Let's go see him."

As "Blood Purple Rose" spoke, she turned to leave, but Qiu Yunce grabbed her wrist.

"Luo Yun, please don't go, I beg you, he's faking it."

"You're the one pretending!"

Seeing Chu Yunmo holding "Xue Ziwei's" hand, Wang Feng rudely separated the two, then bowed to "Xue Ziwei."

"Thank you for your trouble, Your Highness."

"I'll be right back."

"Blood Purple Rose" lifted her leg again, but after taking only two steps, Chu Yunmo suddenly coughed violently.

"Cough cough cough..."

"Yun Ce, Yun Ce, are you alright?"

"Blood Purple Rose" inquired with concern, only to see Qiu Yunce suddenly vomit blood.

"puff……"

In an effort to retain "Blood Purple Rose," Qiu Yuance did not hesitate to harm himself, taking advantage of Wang Feng and "Blood Purple Rose" being distracted, and forcibly used his internal force to strike his own chest.

"What happened? Why has the internal injury worsened again?"

Seeing Qiu Yunce vomit blood, "Blood Purple Rose" hurriedly stepped forward to check on him, muttering a word involuntarily, her eyes filled with worry.

"I...I'm fine. Go check on Prince Longxuan! Maybe he's more seriously injured than me. Otherwise, I've already woken up, why hasn't he woken up yet?"

Didn't you take his pulse yesterday? You said it was just an external injury, but his condition might have worsened overnight.

"Chu Yunmo, you..."

Seeing Chu Yunmo's innocent and naive demeanor, Wang Feng gritted his teeth in anger.

But "Blood Purple Rose" listened to it.

"That's right! I clearly examined Prince Longxuan yesterday. He was fine, just with superficial injuries. It's impossible for him to remain unconscious for so long."

Thinking of these things, "Blood Purple Rose" said in her clear, melodious voice,

"Wang Feng, go and invite Doctor Ouyang to take a look. Is there a problem with the prescription? Or, I can write a prescription for you to get the medicine."

Inside the Bamboo Maple Garden, Li Mufeng waited anxiously, frequently asking his adopted son, Li Jingchen, questions.

"Chen'er, what do you think we should say to your mother when she comes? Will she blame her father for lying to her?"

"Father told Mother that the reason for the divorce was actually to protect her, and to tell her that he loved her and wanted to marry her."

Young Prince Li Jingchen tilted his head and spoke in a childish voice, not finding the matter particularly difficult.

"You little brat, do you even know what liking someone means? I don't like your mother at all. If you hadn't been crying and begging me to find you a mother, would I have had to be so humble?"

Li Mufeng was embarrassed when his son exposed his secret, but he stubbornly insisted on his words.

"Did I cry and beg you to help me find my mother? I just think this mother is pretty good."

But now that she's with that gigolo every day, I don't like her anymore.

Thinking about how "Blood Purple Rose" and Chu Yunmo had been inseparable these past two days, the young prince Li Jingchen was very unhappy and retorted.

“You have it, you have it. The prince said that the young prince cried and begged for the princess to be his mother, so the young prince has it.”

Seeing the father and son arguing incessantly, Eunuch Yu quickly pulled Li Jingchen aside and whispered something in his ear. Li Jingchen immediately grabbed Li Mufeng's hand, looking pitiful.

"Father, I don't care, I just want Miss Han to be my mother, sob sob..."

"That's right! This way, the prince's face will be saved, and the princess will feel sorry for the young prince and won't want to leave. From now on, the young prince will have lollipops every day, and maybe even some sweet and delicious chicken legs. Don't you think so?"

In his high-pitched voice, Eunuch Yu spoke. Li Mufeng, who liked Eunuch Yu the most, pointed at him with his finger.

"reward."

"Thank you for your generous gift, Your Highness."

Grandpa Yu was beaming with joy, and the young prince Li Jingchen was also dreaming of delicious chicken legs and lollipops, but he never expected that Wang Feng would return alone.

"Your Highness, this is from the Princess Consort."

Wang Feng, dejected, handed a prescription to Li Mufeng with both hands. Li Mufeng was furious, clutching the prescription and gritting his teeth.

"Chu Yunmo, you just wait."

"Your Highness, I have a plan that might separate Chu Yunmo from the Princess."

Seeing Li Mufeng so angry, Wang Feng bowed.

"What plan? Tell me about it."

Li Mufeng was impatient; he would stop at nothing to separate the two of them.

"So many people have died in Chenxi County. Since this was done by Chu Yunmo, why doesn't Your Highness take this opportunity to send her to the Heavenly Prison?"

"If we can win over Chu Yunmo, wouldn't the princess be the prince's?"

Wang Feng offered his advice, speaking in the high-pitched voice of the eunuch.

"Brilliant, brilliant! Guard Wang's plan is truly ingenious!"

"Is this a good idea? Chu Yunmo still has internal injuries. Would it be unfair of me to do this?"

Li Mufeng had some reservations, but the young master Li Jingchen said...

"Father, you can't say that. Chu Yunmo is a bad person. Think about how many people he killed. If you don't punish him, how will those who died rest in peace?"

"Yes! Your Highness, even the young prince understands this, how can Your Highness be soft-hearted?"

Think of the Princess Consort. Right now, she has lost her memory, and her heart is completely devoted to Chu Yunmo. If you don't forcefully separate the two of them, I'm afraid the Princess Consort will become more and more deeply involved, and what if…”

Wang Feng deliberately left his words unfinished, but Li Mufeng had already realized the seriousness of the situation and shouted in a deep voice,

"Someone, go and summon Yun Chao, the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review."
