He already has enough ability, but he is not willing to wait until he reaches the top position. He likes to see the princes and princesses of the Fengxiao royal family worried and panicked because of this.
Like a lazy big cat, it likes to play with and torture the prey that is already within its grasp.
In this way, over the course of two years, the Fengxiao royal family was toyed with by Xiao Mokuang, some to death, some to disability, and they were all exhausted both physically and mentally. At this time, the emperor passed away, and Xiao Mokuang jokingly helped the most cowardly original owner of the Fengxiao royal family to the throne, and asked the original owner to call him Taifu.
On the surface, the world is still ruled by the Chu family, but in fact, the one who has all the power behind the scenes is Xiao Mokuang.
And when Chu Ci ascended the throne, he was only twenty-three years old.
At such a young age, he had already messed up the Fengxiao Empire, which made the ministers in the court feel afraid. They called him a treacherous minister or the Fengxiao beast behind his back.
But he was indeed capable and had his own way of governing the world. Although he was sometimes cruel and inhumane, he was supported by many people. Therefore, all the court officials dared not have any opinions about this person.
The original owner was even more afraid of Xiao Mo Kuang. She had seen with her own eyes that Xiao Mo Kuang raised his sword and pierced the heart of the third brother who wanted to resist. The second brother, who was of the same mother as the third brother, also died at his hands.
This time, when the Huai River in Fengxiao was flooded, this gentleman became concerned and gave a direct order, ordering someone to bring out the delicate and timid little emperor.
In fact, the original owner could only see Xiao Mo Kuang a few times a month. She was just a cover. In fact, all the power was in the hands of Xiao Mo Kuang, but the original owner was afraid of him.
During this trip, an assassin attacked Xiao Mo Kuang, and the original owner took advantage of the chaos and ran away with two maids.
These two maids were left behind by the original owner's mother. One was called Feicui, the little maid with a worried face in front of her, and the other was called Binghan, who had learned some martial arts and was slightly older than the original owner. She was driving outside at the moment.
Due to the flood in the Huaijiang River, the weather was always cloudy and sunny, and sometimes it rained for three to five days. In this kind of weather, coupled with excessive worries, the original owner soon fell ill.
At this moment, Binghan and Feicui had no time to escape and were rushing to the nearest town, planning to take Chu Ci to see a doctor.
Chu Ci rubbed his brows as he took in the information. He also learned that the original owner's mother was born in a general's mansion. The original owner was influenced by her and had learned a lot of martial arts. It's just that the original owner was too pampered and didn't continue learning. But at least there was this record, so Chu Ci felt relieved.
Cha Bai noticed Chu Ci's thoughts and was about to scream to stop her, but she saw her host rubbing her eyebrows with an expression that said "I know you very well" and chuckled softly. Perhaps because she was not feeling well, one could vaguely hear a hint of threat in her sweet and soft voice.
"If you still restrict me at this time, I don't think I will be able to show you the rhythm of the world in the future."
Cha Bai: ...
What is this? This is a naked threat!
But since my host is the Empress, there shouldn't be any extreme situations...
Cha Bai shut up, trying to relax himself.
Just as he was thinking this, there was a burst of noise outside. The carriage shook violently, and then slowly stopped with a low shout from a clear female voice.
