Chapter 154: House Arrest

Chu Mohan sighed lightly: "I understand your feelings, it's just ...... I already have someone I like, and I can't forget her no matter what."

Chu Mubai was stunned, it turned out that His Majesty had already had a sweetheart, no wonder he wanted to marry the lord of Wanxiang.

"Your Majesty, please forgive the minister, the minister doesn't know that you have a favorite woman, if the minister knows, he will not dare to say more."

Chu Mohan looked at him and said, "I don't want you to know about this, and I don't want to hide it from you. I have a favorite person, it is the third lady of Zhenbei Wangfu, her name is Chu Wanxiang. You are the person I trust the most, and I want to entrust it to you."

Chu Mubai was surprised: "The younger brother is terrified."

"I know that you are concerned about the royal face and will not reveal this matter, and I will keep it a secret for you."

Chu Mubai arched his hand again and again: "Your Majesty is so convinced of your brother, how can your brother be so good!"

"You don't have to worry about this, I just told you my secret."

Chu Mubai groaned, "The younger brother doesn't dare to refuse. It's just that...... Your Majesty, the younger brother thinks that you should find a good home for the lord of Wanxiang County, otherwise it will damage Your Majesty's reputation. The younger brother knows a childhood sweetheart, although he is from a humble background, but he has a dignified character and a gentle and virtuous personality, and the younger brother is willing to recommend him to His Majesty."

"Oh? In that case, why don't you go by yourself?"

Chu Mubai smiled bitterly: "The younger brother is still young, and it is not suitable for marriage."

Chu Mohan raised his eyebrows: "This is a reason, I will consider it."

Chu Mubai smiled and bowed: "If Your Majesty has any orders, you can let people call your brother."

"Go ahead."

After seeing Chu Mubai leave, Chu Mohan turned around and went back to the imperial study. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Chu Wanxiang kneeling on the ground.

"You...... What are you doing on your knees here?"

"Your Majesty." Chu Wanxiang lowered her head, biting her lip and crying, "The concubine knows that she was wrong, and begs Your Majesty to forgive the concubine."

Chu Mubai's words lingered in Chu Mohan's ears like a spell: Your Majesty is tired of you, it is meaningless for you to stay by Your Majesty's side any longer, it is better to go back to Nanzhao to find your happiness.

"That's it, you have a baby during this time, you don't have to come here every day to say goodbye." After Chu Mohan finished speaking, he brushed his sleeves and left.

Chu Wanxiang looked at his departing back in a daze, and a strong hatred appeared in his eyes. Chu Wanxiang had never hated a person so much, she had thought that she would never have murderous intent towards Chu Mohan, but after meeting Chu Mohan, she found that she would not only be jealous of the pink beauties around him, but also Chu Muhan.

After Chu Wanqing's death, she fell into madness for a while, and even wanted to destroy the world to take revenge on Chu Mohan. Chu Mohan is the culprit, how can she tolerate Chu Mohan living happily! However, Chu Mohan was more powerful than she imagined, and instead of being punished, he climbed higher and higher. After Chu Wanqing's death, he was still beautiful, and her plans all failed! The only thing she was glad about was that Chu Mohan didn't seem to find out that she had killed Chu Muqing in the first place. If he finds out, he will definitely not give up. Therefore, she had to hide her ambitions, keep her head in obscurity, and wait for the right opportunity to assassinate her.

She's been dormant in the shadows, and finally, here's your chance!

On this day, she sneaked into the dormitory where Chu Mohan lived while he was out, took out a dagger and stabbed Chu Mohan in the chest. The dagger is quenched with poison, even if Chu Mohan's life is hard, he can't save him, he will definitely die, and her revenge is finally avenged.

"Chu Mohan, you are innocent of death, the most regrettable thing in this life is to touch you!" Chu Wanqing cursed viciously.

Chu Wanqing's face was grim, and she suddenly felt something sticking to her neck, and she was startled: "Who!"

She quickly reached for the dagger at her waist and stared warily around. It's a pity that it's pitch black all around, and I can't see anything clearly.

"Come out." Chu Wanxiang shouted angrily, "What are you doing sneakily hiding in the shadows!"

"Hahaha." Chu Mohan laughed and walked out of the shadows.

"You ......" Chu Wanxiang was surprised, "Aren't you dead!"

Chu Mo smiled coldly: "I'm dead? I am indeed dead, but my soul is still there! I haven't taken revenge yet, so how can I be willing to be reincarnated here."...

Chu Wanxiang questioned angrily

Ask, "Then why are you the way you are?" Aren't you supposed to be dead?!"

"Because, I want to find your sister's murderer!"

"What murderer, it's not me! You were stupid enough to hurt my sister!"

Chu Wanxiang's eyes were red, and she clenched her fists, eager to pounce on Chu Mohan. But she quickly restrained herself.

This man is too dangerous, and she can't provoke him, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.

Chu Mo looked at her coldly, and his tone was cold: "Do you think I will be as easy to deceive as before? I tell you that from now on, I will not let you go, and I will never let go of your Chu family, no matter what the price is! If you dare to be disrespectful to me again, don't blame me for being unkind to you."

When Chu Wanxiang heard this, she immediately cried, "Your Majesty...... I really didn't hurt Sister Night Frost. You have wronged me, you have wronged me."

Chu Mohan sneered: "Chu Wanxiang, put away your clumsy acting skills. I've seen your trick a thousand times, how can I believe it easily! I've already decided, you just stay in the palace quietly, don't think about going anywhere. I will find a safe grandmother to teach you rules and etiquette, and you are not allowed to disobey!"

"Father, you misunderstood me." Chu Wanxiang wept bitterly.

"I don't want to listen to."

Chu Wanxiang looked at Chu Mohan with tears in her eyes: "Your Majesty, how can you be so cruel! Don't I have a mother, I don't have a father, and I don't need love?"

"I don't owe you anything!" Chu Mohan's tone was sharp, "If you are obedient, I will fulfill my responsibilities as a brother and a king, and give you the best environment, but you should never hurt my most precious person. My child, my beloved one. So, you have to pay for everything you do."

He raised his legs and walked, and suddenly, Chu Wanxiang rushed up and hugged his feet, crying and begging: "Father, don't abandon me, please!"

Chu Mohan frowned, shook off Chu Wanxiang in disgust, and stunned her with one palm. He can't give Chu Wanxiang another chance to overturn the case, and he must put her under house arrest and make her shut up completely.

The next day, an edict came, announcing that Chu Wanxiang was demoted to a concubine and imprisoned in the cold palace.

At the same time, the emperor was seriously ill, and Chu Mohan was summoned to the palace to serve the sick.

There were several armored soldiers standing at the gate of Chu Mohan's dormitory, and Chu Wanxiang couldn't get close at all.

Chu Duiyun was waiting beside Chu Mohan's bed, Chu Wanxiang glanced at him and looked away, turning her head to look outside the hall, she hoped that Chu Duyun would be interesting and leave quickly. And yet he stood still.

Chu Wanxiang was furious in her heart, this fool still didn't leave!
