Chapter 510: Rebellion against Tiangang
Seeing Chu Qingmeng finish one bowl, he took out another one and said, "It's still warm, drink some more."
Chu Qingmeng drank another half bowl and couldn't drink any more. Mo Yunting then put the empty bowls back into the food box and said, "You can only eat these for the next two days to nourish your body and digest it well. Just bear with it for now."
"Yeah, it's okay." Chu Qingmeng took the tea bowl he handed over, rinsed his mouth, and suddenly laughed, "What do you call this now? Reversing the Heavenly Gang? Asking you, Dad, to serve me, or asking the Emperor to serve me, it seems that either one is reversing the Heavenly Gang."
"If it were modern times, you would still be acting like a spoiled brat in my and your mommy's arms at your age. What parent wouldn't feel bad when their child is sick? Not to mention giving you the first glass of water, even if you asked for the stars and the moon, I would find a way to give it to you." Mo Yunting's smile was always full of helplessness. He pinched Chu Qingmeng's cheek and said, "As for the emperor... my little Chujiu, how many times do you want me to tell you that I am just your father, not the emperor."
The father and daughter were being affectionate here, but the whole place was in chaos outside.
The Shangshu Ling Mansion was right next to the General's Mansion, so Mo Liuyuan learned about it when the Imperial Guards entered the General's Mansion. At this time, he had already arrived at the General's Mansion.
Jiang Qing told everything.
Mo Liuyuan remained silent. How could this be considered house arrest? Even his personal guards had been replaced. This was clearly house arrest! Could it be that he couldn't contain himself and was about to seize my wife?
But why are Jiang Qing and Jiang Che allowed to see a girl every three days?
Mu Lingxue looked at Chunhe, who was wiping her tears, and then at Feiying, who was standing in the corner with a worried look on his face, and suddenly asked, "Feiying, where is Shuangcheng next to Qingmeng?"
"The master sent him back to celebrate the New Year before the festival." Feiying answered truthfully.
"What about Shuang Cheng's men? Were they also cleared out?"
Feiying was shocked to realize that no one on the fifth floor had come out. He had been worried and confused, wondering how he could rescue his master if he was imprisoned.
"I'm asking you a question! Why are you daydreaming?!" Mu Lingxue scolded him.
"Princess Sinong, everyone on the fifth floor stayed inside and did not follow the secret guards out of the mansion."
Mu Lingxue hummed, her mind quickly reeling from these thoughts. After a long pause, she finally spoke, "Perhaps, this matter isn't that complicated."
"If it concerns the previous dynasty, there is nothing to be afraid of. But if... it concerns Chu Xiyue..." Mo Liuyuan looked at Mu Lingxue with a frown.
Only the four of them knew that Chu Qingmeng and Chu Xiyue looked very similar. Mu Lingxue obviously remembered this as well, and her face suddenly turned ugly. "That also has to be Qingmeng..."
I couldn't say the words "I am willing" no matter what. Did Qing Meng's wishes matter? Not at all. Under the imperial power, no one's wishes mattered. Even if she didn't want to, there were plenty of ways to force her to agree.
"Second uncle. Who is Chu Xiyue?" Mo Jiangqing couldn't help but ask after hearing Mo Liuyuan's guess.
Mo Liuyuan was silent for a moment. "You don't need to ask about her affairs. I don't know anything about them either. Don't tell your father about your mother's house arrest for the time being. Disobeying an order is a serious crime. I'll find a way to place a doctor there. Don't panic."
At this time, the news that the eldest princess was under house arrest had spread throughout the capital.
In the town government palace.
Ling Xian was in the front hall chatting with Ling He and Ling Xiao about his brother-in-law who had accompanied his sister back home to visit relatives.
When everyone heard this, their expressions varied and they were full of speculation.
Ling Xian's expression remained calm. Mo Yunting had played this tactic well. Relocating Mo Liujin not only distracted Twelve from his position, allowing him to relax his guard, but also freed him from being an eyesore in the capital. Confining Xiaojiu had made everyone think the Princess's Mansion was about to fall, thus exposing even more scoundrels.
"Master." Qi Yu bowed to everyone after entering the room, then whispered in Ling Xian's ear.
Soon, a hint of anger flashed in Ling Xian's eyes, but he ultimately said nothing. Qi Yu retreated, and Ling Xian's expression remained the same, but Ling Xiao could still sense that his aura had changed. "Second brother, what happened? You... seem... very angry?"
"Nothing." Ling Xian restrained his terrifying aura and changed the subject.
Nothing? How could he be okay? He wished that human trafficker Mo Liujin would die on the road! But, Xiao Jiu’s temper… Never mind, he just wouldn’t do it.
Prince Rong's Mansion.
Mo Liufang looked anxious as he found Mo Chenfeng and said, "Father, the superior has confined Qing Meng."
"Let's go to the general's mansion." The father and son hurried to the general's mansion on horseback.
Mo Liuchen and Mo Liujue had already arrived. The father and son met Mo Liuteng who had rushed over at the door. When they entered the door, they found that Mo Liuyuan and Mu Lingxue were already sitting in the main hall.
"What's going on?" Mo Chenfeng waved his hand to signal everyone not to salute.
"The secret guards in the mansion have all been cleared out, but the people on the fifth floor haven't been cleared out." Mo Liuyuan stood up and replied, "None of this matters. Chunhe said that my sister is still sick. The medicine she took this morning was forced into her by the third brother. When she was kicked out, she was still unconscious. She has no personal attendants and no doctors. With my sister's health... let alone surviving until the third brother comes back, I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to survive until we can come up with a solution."
