Was the whole group wiped out in the previous life? Reborn to drag the crippled king into the bridal

The cruise ship quickly docked, and Chu Xuanhan and Yuchi Jiuyue couldn't wait to leave with their guards and maids.

"Jiyue, it's getting late. I have something else to do, so I will send you back to the general's mansion and accompany you another day."

Chu Xuanhan was so angry that he was in no mood to coax Yuchi Jiuyue anymore. He just wanted to go home and vent.

Only when he was in his own house, with the door closed, did he dare to take off his disguise, curse loudly at those who should be cursed, and smash things as hard as he could.

"Tomorrow?" Yuchi Jiyue was still thinking about meeting her future mother-in-law. "Aren't we going to the palace to pay our respects to Concubine Liang tomorrow?"

Chu Xuanhan had just said it casually, but now he had to fulfill it, "Yes, it's tomorrow. I was wrong. Let's go."

Chu Xuanchi and Mo Zhaohua watched them blend into the crowd on the boat. They looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

Wuying and Yueying couldn't help laughing as well, lowering their heads and giggling. Only Fengying had a confused look on his face, not knowing what they were laughing at.

The cruise ship sailed in Anjiang for a long time. Only when the tourists on both sides began to leave did Chu Xuanchi let the boatman dock.

There were fewer people now and the road became wider, and they soon walked out of the downtown area and returned to the carriage.

Mo Zhaohua was not able to say it before, but now he said: "Brother Xuanchi, how can you and Zhaozhao cooperate so well?"

She believed that she didn't need to explain it too clearly, Chu Xuanchi would understand that she was talking about the previous incident of provoking Chu Xuanhan.

Chu Xuanchi thought of Chu Xuanhan's forbearance and couldn't help laughing, "This is called husband and wife working together, their strength can cut through metal."

The word husband and wife made Mo Zhaohua blush again, and he reminded quietly, "We are not husband and wife yet..."

Chu Xuanchi moved his fingers slightly, resisting the urge to touch her face, "It will be soon, less than a month."

When the wedding date was mentioned, Mo Zhaohua thought of the dowry, "Oh, Zhao Zhao, there's something fun that I forgot to tell you."

Chu Xuanchi saw her cunning eyes and was aroused a little interest, "Oh? Then let me hear how fun it is?"

Mo Zhaohua did not keep the secret and told him briefly, "Zhao Zhao asked his father for a ten-mile red dowry yesterday."

Chu Xuanchi thought about Mo Yun's political achievements, "With Minister Mo's family background, it's probably not easy to do this, right?"

There have been constant wars since the last emperor, and the national treasury is in a tight spot. Although the Ministry of Revenue is a lucrative position, it is not easy to enrich oneself.

Especially after Emperor Wenzong ascended the throne, he set up an Inspectorate that was only under his command and was specifically responsible for investigating corruption.

Relying on thunder-like means, a number of corrupt officials were executed as a warning to others, and the deterrent power of the Supervisory Office continues to this day.

Although Mo Yun is the son-in-law of the Duke of Fuguo, he does not maintain a good relationship with the emperor and does not have a strong backing, so he would not dare to engage in corruption.

Mo Zhaohua winked at him playfully, "Yeah, that's why it's fun."

Chu Xuanchi understood immediately, "Zhao Zhao doesn't like Minister Mo?"

Mo Zhaohua said bluntly, "A man who favors his concubine over his wife and favors his concubines' children, Zhao Zhao feels that he is not worthy of respect and love."

Chu Xuanchi suddenly remembered, "I forgot, Minister Mo has a great reputation, such a father is indeed not worthy of your respect."

Mo Zhaohua was indignant, "It's ok that he favors me on a daily basis, but he is also biased in the dowry. Zhao Zhao can't swallow this."

Chu Xuanchi's eyes turned colder, "This Mo Yun is really going too far. If Zhao Zhao asks him for it, will he give it to you?"

Although he has been in southern Xinjiang for many years, he was granted the title of king and built a palace before he was twenty because of his impressive military achievements in his early years.

Later, Emperor Wenzong would give rewards every time the emperor won a battle, ranging from gold and silver to jewelry, jade and fertile land.

The mansions of other princes and princesses could only be lived in and would be taken back after their death, but his Royal Palace was a gift from the emperor.

Unless he committed a serious crime, the title could not be taken back and would be inherited by his descendants. He was the only one in the entire royal family who had this privilege.

Therefore, even though he was not in Shengjing City over the years, a lot of wealth had been accumulated in his mansion.

After he returned from serious injuries a few years ago, he received many rewards from the palace, and he also arranged for his own people to manage his property.

Therefore, he really didn't care about Mo Zhaohua's dowry, but if she wanted to vent her anger, he didn't mind asking for more.

Mo Zhaohua was as proud as a villain who had achieved success. "He has no choice but to give it to me. Zhao Zhao has the support of his brother Xuan Chi and his maternal family."

Her every frown and smile touched Chu Xuanchi's heart. The more he looked at her, the happier he felt. "Zhao Zhao is so cute."

Mo Zhaohua raised his right hand, bending his five fingers as if to grab someone, "No way, Zhao Zhao has claws."

Chu Xuanchi grabbed her little hand and leaned over to take a look. "Where is it? Why can't I see it?"

Her skin was as white as cream, and her hands were soft and smooth. He was reluctant to let go after holding them, and held them even tighter.

Mo Zhaohua's delicate little hand was wrapped in her big palm, and she could clearly feel his rough and thick calluses.

Those were the thick calluses from years of wielding swords and guns. They were both the basis of his glorious military exploits and the best testimony to them.

Mo Zhaohua couldn't help but feel distressed when he thought of this, "Brother Xuanchi..."

"Zhao Zhao's hands are so soft, fragrant and tender." Chu Xuanchi said, and suddenly took out a bracelet from his arms with one hand.

He gently put the bracelet on her hand, and then reluctantly let go of her hand so that she could see it.

Mo Zhaohua raised his hand to admire the bracelet, "Why did Brother Xuanchi give Zhaozhao another gift? Zhaozhao didn't even prepare anything."

It is impolite not to reciprocate. A good relationship should be mutual. She doesn't want to be a person who only knows how to ask for things.

Chu Xuanchi told her, "This is not an ordinary gift, it is a life-threatening bracelet that can protect Zhao Zhao at the critical moment."

Mo Zhaohua was curious just now. This bracelet was neither gold, silver nor jade. It looked more like iron and did not look like a piece of jewelry given to a woman.

Her eyes sparkled with surprise and she spoke excitedly, "Death bracelet? Isn't that very powerful? How do I use it?"

"There is a small mechanism here. Just press it and it will release a poison needle. Zhao Zhao can catch the enemy by surprise in times of crisis."

Chu Xuanchi grabbed her little hand again and pointed to a carved flower on the outer ring of the bracelet and showed it to her. The pistil was the mechanism.

There are several exquisitely carved flowers on the bracelet, and they look similar, but only this one's stamen can emit poison needles.

Mo Zhaohua didn't know about hidden weapons, but he could guess that this was a good thing. "How could Zhao Zhao accept such a valuable gift..."

As she spoke, she pretended to take it off, but Chu Xuanchi held her down and shook his head at her with a smile on his face.

His eyes were burning and his words were extremely gentle, "The first time I saw this bracelet, I wanted to give it to you."

Mo Zhaohua no longer refused, "Brother Xie Xuanchi, this thing is so exquisitely crafted, I guess it must have been hard to get it, right?"

Chu Xuanchi smiled and said, "Fortunately, it was a trophy from a victory two years ago. Nan Zhao does have some talented craftsmen."

He held Mo Zhaohua's wrist and explained the structure of the bracelet to her in detail, so that she could replace the poison needle inside the mechanism later.
