"Thank you, Your Highness." Fu Yurou cried with tears in her eyes.
Xiao Qiao, the commander of the Imperial Guards, walked in and said, "This general greets King Mo. This general has come to capture Fu Yurou. Please help me, King Mo."
Cang Tingchen was furious: "Who do you think you are? How dare you capture my concubine?"
Xiao Qiao, the commander of the Imperial Guards, said coldly: "I have no intention of opposing King Mo, but I am here on the orders of His Majesty. Does King Mo want to disobey your orders?"
As the voice fell, all the royal guards outside the door rushed in.
Cang Tingchen's face instantly turned extremely cold, and he was about to say something, but Gu Jiu quickly stopped him: "Your Majesty, why don't you let Commander Xiao take the concubine away first? You know the consequences of disobeying the order."
When Fu Yurou heard this, she was immediately terrified: "Your Majesty, save me, Rouer is innocent, Rouer doesn't want to go."
Cang Tingchen was extremely distressed: "Rou'er, don't worry, I will definitely rescue you. Rou'er's leg is broken, I will carry you out!"
Fu Yurou froze: "Your Majesty, what happened to Rouer's leg?"
She was so focused on pretending to be pitiful that she didn't even notice she was feeling unwell.
Fu Yurou immediately lifted the quilt and saw that her right leg was tied with a wooden board. Fu Yurou was immediately terrified.
"Legs, what's wrong with my legs? Prince Rouer doesn't want to become a cripple!" Fu Yurou panicked instantly.
If her legs were disabled, how could she become the Princess of Mo?
"Don't worry, Rou'er. The imperial physician said that it will take a hundred days for a broken bone to heal. After a hundred days, your leg will be back to normal." Cang Tingchen comforted patiently.
"Really? Can Rouer's legs really recover?" Fu Yurou was very worried.
"Of course it's true. When has this king ever lied to you?"
"Rou'er believes in the prince."
Prince Mo picked up Fu Yurou horizontally, asked the butler to prepare the carriage, and personally sent Fu Yurou onto the carriage.
"Prince, you must save Rouer?" Fu Yurou cried.
"Don't worry, I'll go to the palace and ask my father for help right away." Cang Tingchen comforted.
"Rou'er is waiting for the prince."
Watching the carriage leave, Cang Tingchen's eyes flashed with ruthlessness: "Why did something suddenly happen to the Fu family?"
"My subordinates found out that someone presented the evidence of the Fu family's crimes directly to the emperor." Gu Jiu replied.
"Who is so blind as to dare to touch the Fu family? Do you want to go against me?" Cang Tingchen said angrily.
"Our people are still investigating."
"It must be Ye Xingchen. No, Ye Xingchen doesn't have such great ability. It must be the emperor's uncle. Now that I have torn my face with him, he is the only one who has the courage to go against me. Follow me into the palace immediately." Cang Tingchen gritted his teeth.
"Your Highness, you cannot enter the palace. His Majesty has placed you under house arrest. If you enter the palace at this time and anger His Majesty, he will definitely be mad at you." Gu Jiu reminded.
Cang Tingchen's face was cold and icy: "So what? I can't live without Rou'er! Come on, prepare the horses!"
The guards immediately brought the horses over, and Cang Tingchen jumped on the horses and headed straight for the palace.
Gu Jiu looked helpless. The prince was too impulsive and he couldn't stop him at all. He could only follow him into the palace.
When the emperor heard that Prince Mo wanted to see him, he was furious: "Didn't I tell him to face the wall and reflect on his mistakes? How dare he come to the palace? Tell him to go back. I don't want to see him."
"yes."
Eunuch Wu went out immediately: "Prince Mo, His Majesty said that you can go back."
"Father, please let Rou'er go. If you don't agree, I would rather kneel down forever!" After saying this, Prince Mo knelt outside the hall with a plop.
Eunuch Wu was shocked: "Prince Mo, you must not do this. You will only anger His Majesty."
"I cannot live without Rou'er." Prince Mo said persistently.
Seeing that he was so stubborn, Eunuch Wu didn't know what to say and turned away.
The news that Prince Mo knelt down for his concubine spread throughout the palace in an instant. When the imperial concubine heard about it, she was immediately proud and relieved.
"I never thought that the bitch Concubine Xuan was so smart, but she gave birth to such a foolish son. Great, that's great. Come on, let's go to the theater with me." The imperial concubine said proudly.
She is now more than four months pregnant and has passed the dangerous period.
"Your Highness, have you forgotten Miss Ye's instructions? You must be careful." The nanny reminded.
"Of course I won't forget. Also, how can that idiot Prince Mo be compared with my child? Then I won't go. You go to watch the play for me and report to me when you come back." The imperial concubine ordered.
"Yes." The young eunuch went out immediately.
When Concubine Xuan heard about this, she flew into a rage: "This idiot actually angered His Majesty for Fu Yurou. How could he be so stupid!"
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Prince Mo is also a man of friendship and loyalty." The nanny consoled her.
"What a bullshit talk about loyalty and righteousness! He is just stupid. If he angers His Majesty and other princes take advantage of the situation, he will never be reused again!" Concubine Xuan pointed out the seriousness of the matter.
The nanny was also shocked: "Madam, what should we do?"
"It is not convenient for me to be in charge of this matter. You should go and talk to Prince Mo in person." Concubine Xuan whispered a few words.
The nanny hurried to do it and went straight to the main hall.
Outside the hall, Prince Mo was still kneeling. Suddenly, he saw a maid coming over. He recognized her as his mother's confidant.
"Madam Liu, you've come at the right time. Please go and ask my mother to save Rou'er." Prince Mo looked anxious.
Madam Liu bowed respectfully and said, "This old servant greets Prince Mo. Concubine Xuan asked this old servant to tell Prince Mo that if Prince Mo angers His Majesty for a woman and thus loses power, Concubine Xuan will immediately sentence Fu Yurou to death!"
This sentence was like a bolt from the blue, hitting King Mo hard on the head.
"Why would my mother be like this? Rou'er is innocent. I want to see my mother?" Prince Mo was puzzled.
"Prince Mo, your majesty has many children, not just Prince Mo. The reason why Prince Mo is now valued by your majesty is because of Concubine Xuan's face.
Concubine Xuan will not see you. The incident at Bao'en Temple has already made His Majesty neglect Concubine Xuan. If Prince Mo implicates Concubine Xuan again, he would be truly ignorant.
Prince Mo is a prince of a country. He can have any woman he wants. Why would he challenge your Majesty's authority for a woman?
His Majesty will naturally investigate the Fu family's affairs. Prince Mo, go back. If you continue to be stubborn, Concubine Xuan will not care anymore!" Aunt Liu explained the serious relationship.
Prince Mo froze in fear: "I just wanted to save Rou'er, and never thought of implicating my mother?"
"Then please go back, Your Highness." Madam Liu sighed.
"Ke Rou'er?"
"Your Highness, do you want the concubine's body?" Nanny Liu snorted angrily.
Cang Tingchen got up reluctantly. He knew that his mother always kept her word. If he continued to pester her, it would only cause trouble for Rouer.
"Madam, please take good care of Rou'er. I will be leaving first. I have not thought carefully about today's matter. Please give my regards to mother on my behalf." Prince Mo said.
"I will definitely convey it." After watching Prince Mo leave, Nanny Liu went back and reported the truth to Concubine Xuan.
Concubine Xuan was furious: "Fu Yurou, that damn bitch, almost caused my son to anger His Majesty, I will take good care of her!"
