Chapter 853 The sight becomes sharper

Chu Tianyi clenched his fists, "No need, Ruoxi's identity is embarrassing, and I don't want her to be wronged."

Chu Mengyang said in a cold voice: "You and Qin Ruoxi have already married, and she is Princess Anshun. You are Prince Han, and Ruoxi is also Princess Han. You two live in the same mansion, what should you worry about?"

"Tianyi, you have to think carefully and don't miss a lifelong event just because of a moment of greed."

Chu Tianyi pursed his lips and said nothing, looking at Chu Mengyang with an even sharper gaze.

"Is the mother-in-law teaching my son a lesson?"

Chu Mengyang did not shy away and said frankly: "You have never regarded your mother and concubine as a relative, so naturally you don't need to respect your mother and concubine."

"In this case, my mother-in-law is naturally not qualified to teach you."

"Tianyi, my mother-in-law is really doing it for your own good."

Chu Tianyi snorted softly, "I don't need your care, let alone anyone's pity."

He turned to look at Qin Ruoxi and said seriously: "Ruoxi, I will take you back to your room to rest."

Qin Ruoxi nodded, holding Chu Tianyi's hand and leaving without any hesitation.

Looking at the backs of Chu Tianyi and Qin Ruoxi, Chu Mengyang clenched his hands tightly and wanted to tear the silk handkerchief in his palms into pieces.

"Mother..."

Chu Tianxiang looked at Chu Mengyang but hesitated to speak, his expression unclear.

"Concubine, Chu Tianyi doesn't take you seriously at all. Why did you make such a sacrifice for him?"

"I am your mother-in-law, and you don't even listen to me?"

Chu Mengyang shouted sharply and looked at Chu Tianxiang with disappointment.

"I know that you have been coveting the inheritance of Prince Han's Mansion for a long time, but don't forget that I am your biological mother! The only thing you have to do now is to be filial to me!"

"As for the inheritance of Prince Han's Mansion, I will naturally find a way to get it back. As long as you remember what I said today, I will definitely not treat you badly in the future."

Chu Tianxiang felt a little cold in his heart, "Mother, why are you forcing Tianyi like this? Do you have to force him and Qin Ruoxi to death?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Chu Mengyang said angrily: "I am only thinking about Tianyi's future!"

"If you don't want to go, just stay in the house and reflect."

"Qin Ruoxi is the princess that your matchmaker is marrying. You can't let her down. If you really can't let go of Qin Ruoxi, the worst thing you can do is wait until you inherit the throne and then straighten Qin Ruoxi."

"Mother--"

Chu Tianxiang was shocked and felt that Chu Mengyang was crazy.

Chu Mengyang said coldly: "Shut up, I'm tired, go back and rest first. You can go to the imperial study room and wait, so as not to have a long night and have too many dreams."

Chu Tianxiang gritted his teeth, but since Chu Tianyi and Qin Ruoxi had left, it seemed that there was no point in him staying here.

"Have a good rest, mother and concubine, and leave the child."

Chu Tianxiang cupped his hands, turned around and strode away. Chu Mengyang looked at his leaving figure, his face still gloomy.

Mo Ju said worriedly: "Princess, will the Crown Prince..."

Mo Lan echoed: "My slave, look at it, the prince doesn't seem to be happy."

Mo Ju frowned, thinking how could Chu Tianxiang be happy? Shouldn't he be angry?

Qin Ruoxi and Chu Tianyi returned to the dormitory. Chu Tianyi had someone send ice cubes into the room. He carefully checked Qin Ruoxi's injuries to make sure that Qin Ruoxi was not injured, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm so stupid to believe what Chu Mengyang said."

Chu Tianyi looked at Qin Ruoxi and said regretfully.

After hearing Chu Mengyang's words just now, Chu Tianyi was filled with doubts.

Although Chu Mengyang had a tough attitude when talking to Chu Tianxiang, Chu Tianyi felt that Chu Mengyang's attitude seemed to be much softer than before.

There is definitely something fishy about this change.Chu Tianyi immediately sent someone to keep an eye on Chu Mengyang, and he immediately rushed back to the capital, but he did not expect to see Qin Ruoxi's assassination.

Qin Ruoxi pulled Chu Tianyi's sleeve and sat beside the bed, "I'm fine. Fortunately, you came back in time."

Chu Tianyi's lowered eyes were instantly filled with guilt and apology.

Qin Ruoxi shook her head, "I really don't blame you. I also hope you can find me as soon as possible. After all, I am also worried about your safety."

Chu Tianyi held Qin Ruoxi's hand and said seriously: "I promise you that I will never abandon you again."

Qin Ruoxi caressed Chu Tianyi's slightly pale face, feeling a deep sweetness welling up in her heart.

She looked at Chu Tianyi and said, "Let's go back to the house."

Chu Tianyi nodded and told Luo Xinghuai to arrange the carriage.

Qin Xuanhe was extremely anxious in the mansion. When he learned that Chu Tianyi and Qin Ruoxi were back, he quickly went out to welcome them.

Chu Tianyi supported Qin Ruoxi, bowed respectfully to Qin Xuanhe, and said straight to the point: "Father, I have something to say, and I want to talk to you alone."

Qin Xuanhe nodded and immediately followed Qin Ruoxi to the study.

Chu Tianyi looked at Qin Xuanhe and asked: "Father, have you ever thought about who was responsible for my father's poison?"

Qin Xuanhe frowned, thinking that Chu Tianyi suddenly mentioned this matter, could he have already guessed who it was?

Chu Tianyi continued: "My son attended the banquet with Ruoxi today and found that there were a few missing among the guests."

"At the New Year's Eve banquet, the wives and ladies of each family will bring their daughters to attend. Therefore, every Spring Festival, every family in the capital holds various activities to connect with each other."

"But this year, did my father see any noble ladies or daughters?"

Qin Xuanhe frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "There are a few wives and family members of officials who did not attend the banquet."

"Father, can you please invite those ladies or young ladies to come over?"

"Ah."

Chu Tianyi nodded and asked Qiao Yue to pass on the message.

After a while, Qiao Yue came back and reported: "Your Majesty, the ladies and ladies are in the front hall. The servant just went to deliver a message, and there are still people waiting."

"Father, please come with Ruoxi."

Chu Tianyi spoke, sighing secretly in his heart, these ladies from official families like to join in the fun, I'm afraid it will be very lively tonight.

However, Chu Tianyi didn't care about this.

Chu Tianyi and Qin Ruoxi changed their clothes and went to the front hall. As soon as they stepped into the courtyard, Chu Tianyi and Qin Ruoxi were stunned for a moment.

Qin Ruoxi's eyes widened in surprise, and Chu Tianyi couldn't close his mouth in surprise when he saw the scene in front of him.

I saw the yard full of maids and servants, and an old nanny was directing everyone to lay out the tablecloth and dishes.

Qin Ruoxi couldn't help but laugh, "I thought tonight's dinner would be simple, but I didn't expect it to be so grand."

Is this a celebration party?

Chu Tianyi said: "Today is the day when the mother and concubine are returning home from three dynasties. According to the rules, the mother and concubine should have dinner at her parents' house tonight."

"So the father and the concubine discussed it and decided to hold a celebration dinner for the mother and concubine. It can be regarded as making up for the negligence tonight, and at the same time, the father and the concubine will be relieved."

Qin Ruoxi nodded, "Father and mother have thought carefully, let's go and help."

Chu Tianyi curled his lips when he heard this, and helped Qin Ruoxi into the flower hall together.

In the flower hall, Chu Mengyang was sitting upright, scolding the housekeeper and the kitchen.

"How do you serve the master? What are these things? Can they be swallowed?! Get out of here!"

Qin Ruoxi frowned immediately, and Chu Tianyi held Qin Ruoxi's shoulders and walked towards Chu Mengyang.
