Chu Younan waved to the servants in her room, signaling them to leave, and then asked, "Princess, do you have anything else to tell me?"
If she dared to confess everything she had done, Chu Younan did not intend to kill her. He would just keep her in the palace and tell others that she was seriously ill.
But how could Mo Qingying confess? She was hoping for a lucky break, and even hoped to use last night's pleasure to erase today's mistakes.
"Your Highness, Ying'er did this because she loves you. You don't know, there are rumors that Abei is more favored than me, and there are also rumors that you favor your concubine over your wife..." Mo Qingying said as she leaned towards Chu Younan.
Chu Younan dodged calmly, his expression cold, "Mo Qingying, ask yourself, do you have the demeanor of a mistress of the house?"
Mo Qingying's heart trembled, but a little melancholy appeared on her face, "Ying'er knows that many things she did were not good, but everything she did was for the prince's consideration. Even today's matter was done with the thought that if the prince could be on good terms with Prince Gao Liu..."
"Foolish woman!" Chu Younan shouted, "My father is in good health, am I too stupid to show my goodwill to the foreign race?"
Mo Qingying shuddered immediately, thinking to herself: Damn! Why didn't I think of this? Dad asked me to do this, could it be that...
She didn't dare to think further.
Chu Younan then said, "Thank goodness I arrived in time today, otherwise you would have made a big mistake! From today on, you must reflect on your mistakes behind closed doors and are not allowed to go out!"
Thinking of the days of confinement after the wedding, Mo Qingying immediately became anxious. She said in a hurry: "Prince! Although I have done something wrong, it is not necessary for you to keep me under house arrest again and again. If you are really dissatisfied with me, it would be better..."
She paused.
Chu Younan sneered, "How about this? To be honest, this time, I will not let you go out again!"
Mo Qingying's only rationality was gone at once. She said angrily, "Your Highness is being hot and cold towards me. If this is the case, why don't you send me back to our sect and we can part ways!"
But Chu Younan still sneered at her, his eyes full of mockery, "Playing hard to get? Mo Qingying, this trick won't work on me!"
Mo Qingying was furious. She rushed to the table beside her and wrote, "Who said I was playing hard to get? I'll write a letter of divorce now!"
Chu Younan just stood there quietly, watching her pick up the pen and write with trembling hands.
How could Mo Qingying be willing to give up? She had finally obtained the position of princess, how could she bear to throw it away?
But she knew very well that she had the support of the General's Mansion. Would Chu Younan not be afraid of Mo Gaishi? Which prince didn't want the general to stand on his side? This divorce letter might turn her from being the passive party to the active party.
She finished it in one go, placed the brush heavily on the brush pile, looked at Chu Younan imposingly, and said, "Please sign it, Your Majesty! From now on, we will part ways!"
Chu Younan chuckled, "Mo Qingying, have you made up your mind to divorce me?"
Mo Qingying had been forced into a desperate situation, so she could only force herself to say, "Yes!"
"In that case, I'll make a small request. You won't regret it, right?" Chu Younan raised the corners of his lips slightly.
"As long as I can do it!" Mo Qingying seemed to be a bit more courageous at this moment.
Chu Younan said, "I want Ah Bei's indenture."
Mo Qingying gritted her teeth and said, "She's just a maid. If you want her, take her!"
After that, she shouted to the outside of the door: "Madame Gui! Help me find Ah Bei's indenture!"
She thought, what's the use of Ah Bei? Chu Younan didn't think that a maid could help him win over the general! It was just a delay.
Thinking of this, she felt more confident.
After a while, Nanny Gui placed Ah Bei's indenture on the table, looked at the two men at loggerheads with resentment, then looked at the words she didn't recognize, and whispered, "Princess, don't act like a child. It hasn't been easy for you and the prince to get to where you are today!"
It was as if a stone was thrown into Mo Qingying's heart, and ripples spread out.
But if she gave in now, wouldn't she be in the passive position of being beaten again? She angrily said, "Get out! You have no right to interrupt the master when he is talking!"
Nanny Gui said nothing and left quietly.
Chu Younan slowly walked to the table, picked up the small piece of paper that determined Ah Bei's fate, and then asked, "Princess, have you made up your mind?"
Even if he divorced Mo Qingying, it would not affect his revenge on the Mo family at all. It was worth it to exchange Abei's freedom for Mo Qingying's temporary freedom.
Mo Qingying was still holding on to her energy and said bluntly, "I've made up my mind! Please sign it, Your Majesty!"
Chu Younan put the indenture into his sleeve pocket and then picked up the pen.
Seeing his calm and composed look, Mo Qingying suddenly panicked. If they divorced, Chu Younan could still be married to her in a formal ceremony. Many daughters of high-ranking officials in the capital were waiting for this opportunity.
But what about her? Not only did she face the fact that she was too weak to marry into a rich family, but she also had to endure Mo Gaishi's wrath.
Mo Qingying lost this game.
She grabbed Chu Younan's sleeve, fell to her knees with a plop, and burst into tears, "Prince! Ying'er is sincere to you! It doesn't matter how much Ying'er has to suffer, I just hope that Your Majesty can look at me more!"
Chu Younan looked at the hands that were grabbing his sleeves, frowned, and his stomach began to churn again.
Mo Qingying cried again: "Your Highness, you don't know that after the wedding, you imprisoned me in this Peony Pavilion. I cried every day and couldn't sleep at night. I was looking forward to seeing you every day..."
Chu Younan shook her hand away and said in a deep voice: "Enough!"
He walked out, wanting to vomit out the disgusting things and change the clothes that had been defiled by her.
Mo Qingying hugged her legs tightly, "My lord, please don't leave! We were fine last night, why are you so heartless today? It is said that one night of love means a hundred nights of grace, my lord! My lord..."
Talking about last night, Chu Younan lost all his sympathy for the woman. If the three of them weren't used to hanging out together on weekdays, how could they be so familiar with it?
Ah Bei only needed to take a glance to see that something was wrong with He Feng Cui Liu, but Mo Qing Ying really didn't notice it at all?!
He kicked Mo Qingying hard in the chest, threw the brush in his hand to the ground, and walked out.
"All the people I sent to Peony Pavilion should be withdrawn! Only He Feng Cui Liu will remain!"
In the end, Mo Qingying only heard Chu Younan say this.
Somehow, she felt relieved, fortunately they were left alone this time.
But this time, Chu Younan ordered people to lock the door of the Peony Pavilion, not even allowing servants to go out, and ordered people to deliver meals every day.
Mo Qingying felt that this time seemed different from the last time...
It seems like the sky is changing...
