Li Huang shook off his numb hands and looked at him condescendingly: "Because he was good enough, my father couldn't bear to have his conscience punished. However, due to the repeated reports by the courtiers, I couldn't understand all kinds of concerns.
I couldn't bear the pain of my father losing his talent, so he took the initiative to ask for a marriage."
"As for you, you were just a joke when I was young. Do you really think you can be compared with Prince Mo?"
"Even if I didn't agree to marry Prince Mo, he would not have died. But you are different. Without the protection of this eldest princess, no one will stop anyone who wants to kill you today."
Her words were like countless knives piercing Gu Chenzhou's heart, leaving him riddled with holes.
He looked at her with a pale face. At this moment, he felt infinite regret in his heart. If he had known that the emperor forced him to marry her, he should have agreed.
His grandmother had told him a long time ago that the status of a concubine princess and a eldest princess were very different, but he didn't listen.
He always felt that with his talents, even without the help of her eldest princess, he could stand out and bring honor to his family.
But he never expected that after rejecting this woman, his good luck seemed to run out all at once, and the entire Pingyang Marquis Mansion would go downhill.
"Then what are you waiting for? If you want to kill me, do it quickly."
Gu Chenzhou closed his eyes, as if he was looking forward to death.
Mo Jingzhan took Li Huang's hand that hit someone just now and wiped it carefully with a handkerchief.
He rubbed it and asked, "Does it hurt?"
Li Huang shook his head: "It doesn't hurt."
Mo Jingzhan kissed the back of her hand and said in a gentle voice, "From now on, I can leave this rough job of beating people to my husband."
Gu Chenzhou, who had waited for a long time with his eyes closed, couldn't sit still after hearing this.
He glared at Mo Jingzhan: "Are you two finished?"
Don't you want to kill him? What does it mean to keep showing off your affection here?
This means stabbing him in the heart before he dies.
Mo Jingzhan looked at him with gloomy eyes: "What? Are you so anxious to die?"
Gu Chenzhou's heart froze, and then he rubbed his neck and said, "Is it possible that you can still let me go?"
Mo Jingzhan lowered his eyes and looked at his injured leg, and stepped on it fiercely: "I haven't settled the debt of Prince An's Mansion with you yet! How can it be so easy to die?"
Hearing him mention Prince An's Mansion, Gu Chenzhou instantly forgot about his screams.
He stared at Mo Jingzhan, as if he had finally found some chips at this time, and forced out an ugly smile.
"Prince Mo, you Prince An's Mansion is plotting rebellion. That is irrefutable evidence. Why? Do you want me to take the blame for you?"
Mo Jingzhan turned his toes and crushed his wounds hard.
His voice seemed to come from the netherworld: "Are you, father and son, guilty of seeking credit? You know best in your heart. If you can't give me an explanation today, I will have hundreds of ways to make it impossible for you to survive or die!"
Gu Chenzhou was so painful that cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but he still laughed out loud.
"Mo Jingzhan, if you can, kill me. Anyway, your Prince An's mansion has been raided. So what if you find evidence to prove that Prince An was wronged?"
The person is already dead, does this still matter to the hundreds of people in Prince An's mansion?
However, before his pride could last for a few breaths, he was severely kicked out by Mo Jingzhan with a flying kick.
He was dragged all the way by Wan Liheng on horseback, and his whole body was already injured. How could he withstand Mo Jingzhan's kick now?
Seeing Gu Chenzhou fainted, his subordinates asked, "Young Master, do you want to wake up again?"
Mo Jingzhan looked at Gu Chenzhou with anger in his eyes: "Throw him into prison first. There is no need to treat his injuries. I want to see how long he can survive."
In his opinion, Gu Chenzhou was not that kind of person.
Otherwise, he would not have enjoyed the convenience and opportunities brought to him by Li Huang, the eldest princess, while at the same time having an affair with that woman Li Chuchu.
The men responded and dragged Gu Chenzhou away.
Li Huang looked at his gloomy expression, stepped forward and held his hand: "Don't worry, Prince An's forged evidence is his last chance of survival, and he won't hold on to it."
Mo Jingzhan held her hand back, the anger in his eyes swept away, replaced by tenderness.
"I can't bear to cause you to suffer so much because of me. Otherwise, you should go back to the capital first. I will go back after I finish handling the things here."
Li Huang shook his head: "Now that I'm here, why should I be separated from you again?"
"Besides, it's a time of life and death for Sanzhou right now. How can I not stay and help you?"
If the matter in the underground palace is not resolved for one day, how can she eat and sleep even if she returns to the capital?
What if that woman Mo Yu had a back-up plan, refined thousands of blood cups, and then casually released them on the battlefield, wouldn't all their hundreds of thousands of soldiers suffer?
Mo Jingzhan's heart warmed up, he stroked her cheek and said, "I'm very glad that you didn't marry that hypocrite Gu Chenzhou."
Thinking of this, he still felt a little sour in his heart.
Seeing his expression, Li Huang couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth: "I told you that it was a young boy who was deceived by Li Chuchu. In fact, I never liked him."
But because she was being plotted by Li Chuchu, she always felt that Gu Chenzhou was very interested in her.
What girl is not pregnant? What woman hears that a child from an outstanding family admires her and yet has no turmoil in her heart?
If she hadn't had such a dream about subjugating her country and annihilating her family, she might not have woken up until now.
"However, are you sure that it was Pingyang Houfu who framed Prince An's Mansion?"
Mo Jingzhan sneered: "Half of the military power of Prince An's Mansion is in the hands of Marquis Pingyang. Who else is so covetous of the military power of Prince An's Mansion besides him?"
Besides, wasn’t that the purpose of framing the Rong’an Hou Mansion back then?
Pingyang Hou is not very capable, but his ambition is quite big.
Over the years, he has held almost half of the military power in the entire Great Abyss in his hands.
"Furthermore, I am not just doubting him because they are vested interests, but I have some evidence."
However, evidence alone is not enough. He also needs Gu Chenzhou's confession and picture to overturn the case for Prince An's Mansion.
Even though everyone is dead, he doesn't want his adoptive father to still be stigmatized after his death.
"It's good if you succeed." Li Huang put her arms around his waist and leaned her head in his arms, "Don't worry, Gu Chenzhou isn't a tough guy either. Within three days, he will definitely ask to see you.
"
However, Li Huang still overestimated him.
When Gu Chenzhou woke up the next day, he felt as if his whole body was on fire.
He was covered in wounds, and because he was splashed with water, the wounds became inflamed and caused a high fever, which made him very uncomfortable.
