After saying that, Chu Younan jumped out of the water. His movements were so fast that Su Bei only saw his back disappearing into the distance.
He didn't dare to be unhappy because he could no longer bear it. Even when Mo Qingying drugged him that time, it didn't seem to be so unbearable.
Su Bei leaned back and floated on the water.
She didn't say that he had to marry her in a formal way. Anyway, as long as there was no other mistress in his house, wouldn't she be the mistress? How difficult would it be to clear the crime of treason? At this time, Chu Younan had already left the bathing pool. In the middle of winter, he stood by the well and poured buckets of cold water on himself. Guizi was screaming beside him: "Prince! What's wrong? Don't mistreat yourself! It will be troublesome if you catch a cold!"
Chu Younan ignored him. Only the clear well water could quench his raging fire. He wanted Ah Bei to be his woman legitimately, to give her a greater honor than Mo Qingying, to make her the most envied woman in the entire capital, even in the entire Wu Kingdom, and even in the world! Guizi failed to dissuade him, and stomped his feet and ran out, heading straight for Qingsong Pavilion.
Chu Youyang settled Xue Jinrong here. He was sitting beside the bed, holding Xue Jinrong's hand, looking at her with heartache, wanting to kiss her secretly, but Guizi rushed in in a hurry: "Your Highness Prince Jin! Please go and have a look. I don't know what's wrong with the prince. He poured buckets of cold water on himself. What if he caught a cold?!"
"Where's Ah Bei?" Chu Youyang turned around and looked at him in confusion. Could it be that Third Brother really caught a cold just to hire a doctor for Jinrong?
This is too righteous! "Miss Abei is bathing in the bathtub, and it's not convenient for me to go in!" Guizi became even more anxious.
Chu Youyang held Xue Jinrong's hand tightly, "Go tell Third Brother that the people he arrested last night are still waiting for him to interrogate! We must avenge Ah Bei and Jinrong!"
Guizi's eyes lit up and he nodded in agreement.
Chu Youyang leaned over and gently kissed Xue Jinrong's slightly pale lips, murmuring: "Don't be afraid, Jinrong, no matter what happened last night, I will marry you as scheduled."
Not long after, Doctor Xue arrived and was taken to Qingsong Pavilion. He was very surprised. When he saw his little daughter lying on the bed, he was even more surprised, "Your Highness Prince Jin, what's going on?"
"Doctor Xue, there's no need to ask so many questions. Just check on Jinrong immediately. When will she wake up?" Chu Youyang quickly moved aside.
Doctor Xue hurried forward and put a handkerchief on Xue Jinrong's wrist. After checking his pulse, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "He must have hit his head, so he is unconscious. As long as he wakes up, he should be fine."
Then, he turned around and looked at Chu Youyang in confusion, "My Lord, what is going on?"
Chu Youyang had to evade the main point and say that they encountered some bad guys while playing last night, and Xue Jinrong fell and was injured during the fight.
"Then I will take her back to the palace and take good care of her. She should be able to recover soon."
Chu Youyang shook his head and said, "Please don't tell anyone else about this, Doctor Xue, so as to avoid rumors spreading and causing Jinrong to be suspected for no reason."
Doctor Xue nodded in agreement.
Chu Youyang breathed a sigh of relief. After watching Xue Jinrong being carried away, he stood up and prepared to return to his own house.
General's Mansion.
Mo Gaishi also took a day off today, because before daybreak, two uninvited guests came to the general's residence.
One is Mo Xiao and the other is Mo Qingying.
Before the two of them spoke, their eyes were already tense.
Last night, Mo Qingying hid in the closet and accidentally touched a mechanism, then fell into another secret passage. Coming out of the secret passage, she came to the chicken coop outside the manor.
Coincidentally, she saw Mo Xiao hiding in a corner here.
Although Mo Xiao was very skilled in martial arts, he could hardly move now and had to wait in the chicken coop for an opportunity to escape.
Although Mo Qingying hated Mo Xiao, she was penniless and could not move.
After a "friendly" negotiation, the two decided to let Mo Qingying carry Mo Xiao on their back, and they changed their appearance and returned to the general's mansion.
Mo Xiao has to seek Mo Gaishi's protection, while Mo Qingying tries to let Mo Gaishi make the decision for her. They both have their own ulterior motives.
Mo Qingying thought that Mo Xiao's behavior of bullying his sister would definitely be punished by Mo Gaishi. But she didn't expect that in Mo Gaishi's eyes, she was just a chess piece, and a useless one at that.
"You are unfaithful to your husband and have caused my father to be humiliated by Prince Su. You deserve to be drowned in a pond!" Mo Gai Shi looked at her gloomily.
Mo Qingying panicked, but then she heard Mo Gaishi say, "For the sake of our long-standing father-daughter relationship, I will spare your life. I will send you to Tongcheng right away. From now on, you will hide your real name and never say that you are my daughter, Mo Gaishi!"
The words were heartless, but Mo Qingying felt grateful. This was the first time in many years that Mo Gaishi had been so gentle to her.
Afterwards, Mo Gai Shi said to Mo Xiao, "Although Zhuangzi was searched, fortunately you were not exposed, so no one can suspect me. I will take care of the aftermath here. You should leave Beijing quickly and go to Fengyuan to find my good friend Yi Qianlong!"
Mo Xiao sensitively realized that Mo Gaishi's rare kindness was not just kindness, but must have other intentions.
This time, Mo Gaishi's underground hideout was destroyed. Although the mastermind was not caught, twelve court officials were captured. Among them, the Dali Temple Minister, who was Zhuangzi's official master, had committed suicide at home out of fear of crime, taking the blame for Mo Gaishi.
Even so, Mo Gaishi was still hit hard, because these people were people he trusted very much, and they were also chess pieces he had painstakingly cultivated for many years and placed in various places in the court.
Imperial study.
"In the case of North City Village, all the officials involved had their homes confiscated and were exiled! As for King Mu..." Chu Yan's gaze fell on Chu Youchen, feeling very disappointed with him.
Chu Younan remained calm, but secretly sympathized with Chu Youchen in his heart.
"Prince Gao Liu died in the Wu Kingdom. You need to give an explanation to Gao Liu. So you should marry Princess Gao Liu and make her shut up!" Chu Yan shook his head slowly.
He didn't want someone like Yaruo to enter the royal family. After all, the royal bloodline could not be mixed. Who knew what kind of bastard would come out of Yaruo's belly in the future under the strange customs of the Gaoliu people.
Chu Youchen didn't want to either. As a man, he naturally required his woman to be loyal to him wholeheartedly. If he hadn't gone crazy for no apparent reason that night, he wouldn't have spent the night with Yaruo...
What's more, Liangxiao was not a good person! He caught fire before he could enjoy himself, and his back was burned...
But he couldn't disobey the emperor's order, so he had to bow his head and answer, "Yes!"
"Let her be his co-wife so that we can give Gao Liu an explanation!" Chu Yan said in a deep voice again.
Chu Youchen was furious, but he had no choice but to agree.
Chu Youyang shook his head slowly. Unless Chu Youchen abolished Yaruo in the future, it would be difficult for him to succeed to the throne in the future.
But he himself was not much better, Chu Yan immediately looked at him, "Prince Su, it has been a while since you and the princess divorced, and the palace cannot be without a mistress to take care of it for a day, what are your plans for this matter?"
