Chapter 247: Masters Like Clouds

Chu Wanxiang brushed her sleeves away, took a few steps and stopped: "By the way, I forgot to tell you. I also just found out about your mother and the Lin family jointly framing me, so what do you think I will do with your mother and the Lin family?"

"I don't need your mercy!" Chu Mo said coldly.

"That's not up to you, you're still my husband, I can do whatever I want with you. I know that you are strong in martial arts, but you have to remember that the masters of the Lin Mansion are like clouds, especially the four guards around Old Madam Lin, who are much more powerful than you, and you may not escape from the Lin Mansion." Chu Wanxiang finished saying this slowly, and Shi Shiran left.

Chu Mohan stared at her back for a while, lowered his head and drank tea, his expression complicated.

Chu Wanxiang walked for a while, suddenly thought of something, turned back, and ordered the guards standing at the door, "You stay in the courtyard, and no one is allowed to come in except me."

"Subordinates obey."

"Princess, the slave maid just heard that the colt was assassinated in the garden." Qingshuang approached and lowered her voice in return.

"What?" Chu Wanxiang raised her head in surprise, and a thick worry shrouded her eyebrows, "Quick, pass the order, let everyone be more vigilant."

Chu Wanxiang hurried to the garden, and saw a group of people in a circle from a distance, talking about it.

Chu Mohan walked over in full view of everyone, frowned, and said, "What happened?"

"Master Pony." Someone recognized him and saluted, "The princess is here, and she is asking why."

"Really? I'll take a look."

As soon as Chu Wanxiang approached, she smelled a pungent smell of blood, and her heart suddenly jumped, and she quickly squeezed into the crowd. I saw a man in black lying in a pool of blood, with a dagger stuck in his chest, blood gurgling.

"This ......" Chu Wanxiang was stunned, stunned for a long time, turned his head and shouted, "Come on, come on!" Hurry up and take down this assassin."

The surrounding guards were frightened and did not dare to step forward.

Chu Wanxiang was anxious and roared, "Are you all blind? Why don't you come here yet!"

"Her Royal Highness the princess is angry!" Chu Mohan arrived in time and stood beside her: "Princess, this assassin is pretending."

Chu Wanxiang glared at him: "Pretend? How is that possible?"

"It's true." Chu Mohan said, "If you examine carefully, you will know that there are blood stains on this assassin's body, but he forged it himself, in order to confuse the public."

Chu Wanxiang examined it carefully, and sure enough, she found that the blood was dark red, which was obviously poisoned.

"Who is it?" She asked angrily.

"I don't know." Chu Mohan frowned and said, "I'm not sure if this is really a conspiracy of the Lin Mansion, maybe someone else."

"I'll find out." Chu Wanxiang said, "You take care of your mother, don't have any more accidents."

"Hmm." Chu Mohan nodded and watched her walk towards the assassin.

"Ahh

"Princess!"

"What's wrong with the princess!"

Everyone helped Chu Wanxiang up with their hands and feet, Chu Mohan's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly ran over, but saw Chu Wanxiang's abdominal pain like a twist, curled up in a ball, and sweating on his forehead.

"Send the princess to the hospital!"

Chu Wanxiang was in a coma for three days before waking up, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Chu Mohan sitting in front of the bed, looking haggard and tired.

Chu Mohan noticed that she was awake and reached out to hold her wrist. Chu Wanxiang felt a sharp pain and couldn't help but exhale softly. Chu Mohan withdrew his hand and said gently, "Xiangxiang, you finally woke up."

Chu Wanxiang struggled to sit up: "Why are you here?"

"You've been asleep for three days, and if it weren't for the palace doctor saying you're okay, I would have taken you away." Chu Mohan helped her lean on the pillow, "I'm hungry, I'll let the kitchen prepare a meal, and I'll be able to eat soon."

"Wait!" Chu Wanxiang held Chu Mohan's hand and asked, "How long have I been asleep?"

"Three whole days." Chu Mohan said, "Don't worry, my mother has already arranged it, and absolutely no one will hurt her."

"What about my mother?" Chu Wanxiang asked.

Chu Mohan was silent

After a moment, he said slowly, "She's dead."

"How could it be ......" Chu Wanxiang couldn't accept it for a while, "You lied to me, right, how could she die, impossible!" She's still waiting for me to save her, can't ......."

Chu Mohan hugged her into his arms and hugged her tightly, as if he wanted to vent his grief and resentment through such a move.

Chu Wanxiang's tears rained down.

After a long time, she calmed down, pushed Chu Mohan away, wiped away her tears and said, "Over the years, you've worked hard."

"It's not hard." Chu Mohan said, "Xiangxiang, let's work together to save my mother."

Chu Wanxiang took a deep breath and said, "Okay, don't worry, I will definitely find a way to save her."

Chu Mohan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Xiangxiang, your body is weak, let's rest first."

"Don't worry about me, I'm fine, I'm just a little tired." Chu Wanxiang shook her head, "Go back and rest."

Chu Mohan hesitated for a moment, then got up and withdrew.

Chu Wanxiang looked at his back and muttered, "I will definitely find out the enemy who killed my mother!"

She won't give up on tracking down who is behind the scenes.

The night was hazy, and the moonlight shone like water, sprinkled on the trees in the courtyard.

In a small pavilion outside the courtyard, Chu Mohan and Murong Xueyao sat side by side.

"Mo Han, why didn't you tell the princess the truth?"

"It's too complicated to say in a word. In short, I don't want the princess to be involved in this matter, and I don't want to lose her because of this kind of thing." Chu Mohan lowered his eyes and said, "I have already lost a child, and I don't want to lose Xiangxiang."

"However, this matter can be hidden for a while, and it cannot be hidden for a lifetime. If you don't tell the princess the truth, I'm afraid the princess will never forgive you, and she won't forgive herself." Murong Xueyao sighed: "Mo Han, I know you are bitter in your heart, but after all, this is your family matter, and you should have the right to deal with it."

Chu Mohan smiled and said indifferently, "This time, I will give the princess an explanation."

"That's good." Murong Xue Yao said, "I don't blame you for this matter, if you want to blame it, you will blame Lin Guogong for being too cunning and deceitful, and he actually designed to frame you."

Chu Mohan didn't answer, and changed the topic: "Today is my father's birthday banquet, why don't you accompany my father?"

Murong Xueyao pouted: "It's not because of that Lin Shuyuan. She took advantage of her father's birthday to invite all the ladies in the capital to participate in her concubine selection banquet, and also named you and the princess to participate."

Chu Mo snorted coldly: "What the hell is that woman going to do?"

"Who knows." Murong Xueyao shrugged her shoulders, her tone revealing disgust: "I originally liked her a lot, but she didn't have any education at all, so I really didn't bother to pay attention to her."

"Since she dares to be so arrogant, she must have no fear." Chu Mohan groaned, "You pay attention to her, don't let her bully you."

"Don't worry, I'm hot-tempered, but I'm not stupid." Murong Xue Yao said, "That woman only dared to be so unscrupulous because she was His Majesty's favorite princess. When the princess gives birth to the emperor's eldest grandson, she will not dare to run rampant."
