Chapter 467 Is Chu Yueli really that important to him?
Although Prince Mo wields immense power in the Northern Frontier, this is the capital city. In the capital, Prince Mo's greatest backer is Consort Yu's maternal clan.
He didn't bring back many troops at all.
All the princes had at least 30,000 troops around the capital, but Prince Mo only brought 3,000 personal guards.
To put it bluntly, if something were to really happen, even King Mo himself would be in trouble.
Beating one's own brother—if this matter reaches the Emperor, Prince Mo will not escape punishment, for the Emperor hates nothing more than brothers killing each other.
What was the purpose of King Mo taking his son out and beating him up?
This was something that Consort Rou couldn't understand at all.
“The other person…” Lu Shangfeng didn’t know who it was either. He thought for a moment, then his brows furrowed even more deeply. “The other person… seems to be a woman…”
Judging from the footsteps, it did indeed sound like a young woman, very light and graceful, and she seemed to have a faint fragrance about her.
He was just stunned by the attack and his attention wasn't focused, so he couldn't clearly tell whether it was a man or a woman; he just went by feeling.
"Miss?" A figure suddenly appeared in Consort Rou's mind.
If she really is a young woman, and has a relationship with Prince Mo, and possesses martial arts skills so high that she can come and go freely in Prince Ning's residence, then she can only think of one person in the entire capital.
Chu Yueli.
The recent marriage between Prince Ning and the Seventh Princess has caused quite a stir in the city. The Seventh Princess lives in the Duke's mansion and has an ambiguous relationship with Chu Xiaohe.
At this time, it seems not impossible that Prince Ning wants to marry the Seventh Princess, and Chu Yueli would ask Prince Mo to beat up her son.
But how could the dignified Prince Mo be willing to take such a great risk for Chu Yueli?
Is Chu Yueli really that important to King Mo?
"Don't mention this to your father again. It's shameful for a dignified Prince Ning to be beaten up and not even know who the other person is. Your father won't feel sorry for you; he'll only think you're incompetent."
Roufei's words made Lu Shangfeng feel aggrieved.
"Your subject understands, Mother Consort, please rest assured. Your subject will know to do so in the future."
If it really is Chu Yueli and Mo Wang, then all of them are ganging up on me!
Tolerable or unbearable!
He is, after all, of royal blood; how could he allow himself to be bullied like this?
This matter is not over yet!
……
Chu Xiaohe brought Tuoba Liuli back to the Duke's mansion, and An Delu arrived that afternoon.
"The Marquis of Dingbei?"
“Yes, the Marquis of Dingbei, a second-rank official, not only has a title but also an official position. He is unprecedented in the court.” Zisu said excitedly, pulling Chu Yueli toward Qinghui Pavilion. “Miss, you should go and discuss it with the young master. Eunuch An’s idea is that we should hold a banquet or something and publicize it extensively.”
Of course, the Emperor meant to let everyone know that the Marquis of Dingbei was a very prestigious title, worthy of marrying the Seventh Princess of Dongzhou.
It was also to let everyone in the Duke's mansion know that the Emperor had shown them great favor, so that they would naturally have to be devoted to the Emperor from now on!
Following Zisu's footsteps, Chu Yueli soon arrived at Chu Xiaohe's Qinghui Pavilion.
An Delu was still drinking tea in the main hall of Qinghui Pavilion, talking to Chu Xiaohe about the banquet that night: "The Emperor's favor, General Chu... oh, no, Marquis, you must cherish it. Tonight's banquet must not be taken lightly, understand?"
Chu Xiaohe was not one to indulge in extravagance and ostentation, but he could not disobey the emperor's decree, so he could only nod and say, "I understand. Tonight's banquet will certainly not disappoint His Majesty's great favor!"
