Chapter 231: A Golden Opportunity

Chu Wanxiang frowned slightly: "I am indeed not. I'm from another world, and my name is Chu Wanxiang. My father, Chu Yunshan, was a general in the north, who led the army to break through the capital of Southern Xia and established a brilliant feat. But he fought valiantly and died on the battlefield. My mother is the princess of the North, but she was separated in the war and has not been heard from since. I'm here to find her."

"Oh?" Chu Mohan smiled faintly, "I heard that your father is the god of war in the northern realm, but I didn't expect that he would also die on the battlefield one day."

"The prince's words are wrong." Chu Wanxiang shook his head and said slowly, "He is a hero and should not die under the enemy's sword. I don't blame you."

Chu Mohan's pupils suddenly constricted.

"Either way, you owe me my life. It's fair that I'll save your life in exchange for my freedom." Chu Wanxiang said.

"You want to escape from the capital?" Chu Mohan stared at her sharply, "Do you think this king will let you go?"

"I'm not leaving." Chu Wanxiang looked at him firmly, "I came to the north to look for my parents, if I don't even have this courage, what can I talk about looking for my parents."

Chu Mohan stared at her for a long time before looking away: "Then, this king doesn't force it."

Chu Wanxiang breathed a sigh of relief.

"But ......," Chu Mohan said suddenly, "this king can't let you go."

Chu Wanxiang's heart instantly cooled.

"You are the woman of this king, and this king will not let you go." Chu Mohan's voice was cold and domineering, "In this life, you don't want to get rid of this king."

Chu Wanxiang was stunned for a while, and then smiled bitterly: "Why should the prince be strong? You are a prince, what woman do you want? Why do you cling to me?"

"This king doesn't need any women." He said lightly, "You don't have to worry, you are the princess, this king will not treat you badly, you can stay at ease, be well-behaved, this king promises not to touch you."

Chu Wanxiang lowered her head and said nothing.

The carriage stopped, the curtain opened, Ying Xue brought in the steaming meal, and said respectfully, "Lord Qi, princess, it's time to eat."

Chu Mohan motioned for them to retreat. Chu Wanxiang lowered her eyelashes and did not speak.

She wasn't hungry and didn't want to have lunch with him.

"This king has ordered someone to send clothes and jewelry, and let the butler help you choose a set tomorrow."

Chu Wanxiang still ignored him.

"Wanxiang?" Chu Mohan frowned, "What's wrong with you?"

Chu Wanxiang remained silent.

"Is there something wrong with it?" Chu Mohan helped her sit up, "I'll call the Imperial Doctor to come and show you."

"You don't have to bother." Chu Wanxiang stood up and walked out the door.

Chu Mohan's face changed suddenly, and he quickly caught up with her and grabbed her arm: "Wanxiang, where are you going?"

Chu Wanxiang said calmly, "Go back to your own room."

Chu Mohan was silent for a moment, and suddenly roared as if angry, "What do you want to do?"

Chu Wanxiang was silent.

After saying that, he shook off his hand and walked forward, Chu Mohan stretched out his hand to stop her.

Chu Wanxiang looked at him coldly, and her eyes burned with rage.

Chu Mohan grabbed her shoulder, leaned over and said in her ear, "If you don't want this king to kill you, don't force this king, otherwise this king will make you want to live and not die."

"Lord Wang!" Ying Xue hurriedly walked in, just in time to see the two of them close together, she was immediately shocked, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, kowtowing and begging for mercy, "Lord Wang's forgiveness! The slave and maid went to the kitchen to deliver food just now, but unexpectedly bumped into the prince and the princess, and the slave and maid retired."

Chu Mohan glanced at her: "Are you a new maid?"

Yingxue trembled with fright, and kowtowed again and again: "Slave and maid, slave and maid are in charge of sprinkling and sweeping in the palace, and the slave and maid know that they are wrong, the slave and maid should die, and the slave and maid will get out."

After saying that, he got up and stumbled out, panicking like a child.

Chu Mohan retracted his gaze and said to Chu Wanxiang, "Look at you, you frightened the subordinates, and this king will teach her a lesson for you."

Chu Wanxiang glared at him and gritted her teeth.

Chu Mohan raised his hand to stroke her cheek, and smiled gently: "Wan Xiang, what this king promised you will be done, don't think nonsense, eat and rest." When you have enough spirits, this king will accompany you around."

His tone was so gentle that it was almost dripping, but Chu Wanxiang felt a strong malice.

He lied to her at all! He wouldn't let her go, because he didn't want to let her go at all! Not only does he want her, he wants to possess her!

Chu Wanxiang's heart was frightened, she secretly became vigilant, and coldly refused: "Lord Wang, please respect yourself."

"You are the princess of this king, and it is only natural that this king is responsible for you." He furrowed his brow in displeasure, "Don't make this king angry again."

Chu Wanxiang pursed her lips and said nothing, turned around and left.

"This palace hunt is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but unfortunately the crown prince has escaped, if you catch him again, it will be a great achievement." Chu Mohan's tone was cold, his brows were furrowed, and his eyes were full of murderous aura.

Chu Wanxiang's face changed slightly after hearing this, "Then let's catch up quickly, don't delay the trip!"

Chu Mohan nodded, and ordered in a deep voice: "Chase!"

The guards went away in response, and they all turned on their horses, and galloped to the east.

Chu Mohan rode on horseback and looked in the direction of the west. As the sun sets, the sky darkens, and the distant scene is hazy and invisible. Chu Mohan narrowed his eyes, his lips pursed into a line, his handsome face was shrouded in a layer of haze, and his body exuded a strong anger.

Suddenly, an arrow flew over and grazed Chu Mohan's ear. Chu Mo raised his head coldly, his eyes scanned the surroundings, but he didn't see anything abnormal, the arrow just now seemed to come out of thin air, very abrupt.

"Whoosh-" Several more arrows sped through the wind.

Chu Mohan swung his sword to block it, and the long sword rang out, making a crisp and pleasant sound.

"Protect your master!" Several pro-soldiers shouted in unison, and quickly surrounded Chu Mohan in the center.

Chu Mohan condensed his internal force in his right palm, and suddenly pushed out a palm, and suddenly the violent palm wind swept around, countless trees collapsed, and the sky was full of dust.

The arrows fell to the ground and vanished, and silence returned to the surroundings. Chu Mohan tightened the reins and turned the horse's head.

"Woo ......" the horse stopped.

Chu Mohan said in a low voice, "Go by yourself!"

"No, I'm with you!" Chu Wanxiang tightened his clothes and shook his head stubbornly.

"Danger!" Chu Mohan said sharply, "Let's go!"

"I'm going to be with you." Chu Wanxiang said stubbornly.

Chu Mohan reached out and grabbed her slender shoulder, shook her off with all his might, and scolded: "Get out!"

Chu Wanxiang was thrown out more than ten meters and stumbled before standing firmly. Chu Mohan ignored her, turned the horse's head and left.

Chu Wanxiang stumbled up and hugged his legs, and pleaded with tears streaming down her face, "I'm scared, please accompany me, okay?"
