Chapter 168: If you commit it again, there will be no forgiveness

She hurried to Fengqi Palace, and under the leadership of the palace maid, she entered Chu Mohan's bedroom.

Chu Mohan was reviewing the recital, and when he saw her come in, he raised his eyes and glanced at her, and his tone was indifferent: "Why don't you rest more?"

Chu Wanxiang's heart was sour, and she bowed her head and saluted: "The concubine sees Your Majesty."

Chu Mohan put down the red pen and looked at her: "The queen has something to say?"

Chu Wanxiang pursed her lips and said softly, "Your Majesty, the concubine has specially come to ask Your Majesty for her guilt. The concubine did not listen to His Majesty's teachings and left the palace without authorization, it was the concubine's mistake. Your Majesty will punish and kill, but punish him."

Chu Mohan stared at her for a long time, and suddenly smiled: "I punish you? I can't help you! I don't blame you, don't worry."

His gentle attitude made Chu Wanxiang's heart well.

"I'm happy today." Chu Mohan approached her, touched her pale and haggard face, and said with pity, "You have lost weight."

"The concubine is fine, but I've been having nightmares lately, and I haven't slept well enough." Chu Wanxiang leaned into his arms and muttered, "The concubine wants to go to the meditation nunnery to practice."

Chu Mohan was slightly stunned: "Why do you want to go to the Meditation Nunnery?"

"Because the concubine likes a girl and wants to travel with her, she wants to take refuge in Buddhism."

Chu Mohan groaned, "I will accompany you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Chu Wanxiang showed a light smile of relief, "As long as Your Majesty accompanies the concubine, the concubine will be at ease."

"Hmm." Chu Mohan nodded and agreed, "I still have some excerpts that need to be reviewed, Wanxiang will go back, I will come to see you when I am done."

Chu Wanxiang nodded obediently: "Your Majesty is slowly busy, and the concubine will go back first." She curtsy, and then left the study.

Soon after she left, a man in black quietly appeared: "Your Majesty."

Chu Mohan looked at the fold, and didn't raise his head when he heard the words, "What's the matter?"

"My subordinates have found out the whereabouts of the queen." The man in black said respectfully, "She went to a mountain villa on the outskirts of the city."

Chu Mohan raised his head, his sharp eyes revealing Sen Sen's coldness: "Mountain Villa?"

"The subordinates lost their mothers, and they only found out here."

"I see." Chu Mohan stood up, "You go down."

The man in black bowed and disappeared into the shadows.

Chu Mohan sat alone for a while, slowly walked out of the imperial study, rode a horse, and went to the villa.

When Chu Mohan arrived at the villa, it was already late spring, and the villa was full of flowers, and the scenery was beautiful, like a fairyland.

He walked all the way to the courtyard where Chu Wanxiang lived, pushed the door in, and a familiar fragrance came to his nose. He paused, walked into the house, and saw Chu Wanxiang kneeling on the ground.

"Your Majesty......" her trembling voice called.

Chu Mohan stopped beside the bed.

"Your Majesty...... I beg Your Majesty to forgive your concubine......" Chu Wanxiang's tears rained down, "The concubine will never disobey Your Majesty again......

Chu Mohan looked at her for a long time, then turned around and left, leaving Chu Wanxiang kneeling there alone, crying silently.

Chu Mohan returned to the imperial study and flipped the table to the ground, scattering the broken cups and inkstones.

He roared, "Rubbish!"

The guard knelt down in fear: "Please punish Your Majesty!"

Chu Mohan waved his sleeves and brushed away the paperwork on the table, gritting his teeth: "A group of rice buckets! Why did I feed you?"

"Your Majesty......" Defoe reminded him, "you have already scolded them just now."

"I can't help it!" Chu Mohan pointed out the door: "Get out!"

The guards retreated.

Defu sighed, walked up to him, and persuaded, "Your Majesty, after all, the queen mother is the queen that Your Majesty is marrying, if you ignore it, won't it make people criticize you for treating her poorly?"

Chu Mohan's face turned pale, and he said word by word, "I will never allow any woman to bully the queen! Whoever commits it again will be killed."

Defu bowed his head and promised.

"Go and call Defulai."

"Minions obey."

Defu went while

"What does Your Majesty command?"

"I want to make a prince." Chu Mohan ordered, "I want to make the eldest prince the emperor and the second prince the prince."

"Yes, the minion will make the decree immediately." Defu bowed.

"Wait!" Chu Mohan changed his words again, "First crown prince. The decree of the crown prince will be drawn up by the prime minister and the Ministry of Rites tomorrow. As for the second prince, the second prince born of the imperial concubine."

Defu was stunned for a moment, and hesitated: "But ......."

"I have made up my mind, so I don't need to persuade me anymore." Chu Mohan scolded sharply.

Defu was so frightened that he quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "The slave obeys the order!"

Chu Mohan closed his eyes to hide the struggle under his eyes.

He didn't want to set up a second prince, but if the second prince inherited the throne, Chu Wanxiang had to go away, otherwise it would be dangerous.

But he was unwilling, he didn't want Chu Wanxiang to leave his side.

He opened his eyes and looked out the window with an unpredictable expression.

In the evening of the next day, Chu Wanxiang came to the temple by car. She was dressed plainly and plainly, wearing a hat, covering her face, and only the temperament on her body revealed her identity.

"The poor nun has seen the queen's mother." Master Hui Ming greeted her, "Niangniang is here to worship the Buddha?"

Chu Wanxiang nodded.

Huiming took her into the wing, and the food was ready. Huiming took out a string of Buddhist beads and handed it to her: "This is used by poor nuns to chant scriptures and pray for blessings on weekdays, and the mother wears them on her body."

Chu Wanxiang stretched out her hand and took it, "Thank you, Master."

"Amitabha." Hui Ming clasped his palms together and saluted, turned around and walked out.

Only Chu Wanxiang was left in the meditation room. She clenched the Buddhist beads in her hand, was silent for a moment, took off the hosta on her hair bun and inserted it into the bead string, looked at it for a moment, and then took off the green jade earrings on her ears and put them into the bead string, and gently stroked them.

After a few moments, she took off the beads and put them in her sleeve, got up and walked out.

When I walked to the door, I happened to meet the maid who delivered the meal: "Niangniang, dinner has been prepared."

"Thank you." Chu Wanxiang smiled and bowed.

She followed the maid to the restaurant, but she didn't see Chu Mohan's figure.

"Where's Your Majesty?" She asked.

The maid shook her head: "The slave doesn't know, His Majesty is still here."

Chu Wanxiang frowned, and walked quickly to the outside of the hall, but met Defu at the door, and Defu said to her with a smile, "Niangniang."

"Defoy, why are you here too? What about Your Majesty?" Chu Wanxiang said worriedly.

Defu smiled and said, "Don't worry, Niangniang, Your Majesty is behind." Your Majesty said he was hungry and wanted to eat the food cooked by his mother."

"Then please come over to Your Majesty." Chu Wanxiang breathed a sigh of relief, and then complained, "Defu, how can you take the initiative to send His Majesty out of the palace? What if something happens?"

"Niang Niang misunderstood." Defu said, "Niangniang is not in the palace, where is Your Majesty at ease, so you want to go out of the palace to find Niangniang. His Majesty has been dealing with government affairs in the palace all these years, and he has not gone out, so it is inevitable that he will be rusty. Today, when I heard that Niangniang had entered the palace, His Majesty was very happy, so he rushed over, and Niangniang should hurry up and go to the kitchen and make a bowl of braised fish soup for Your Majesty."

"Okay, I see."
