That night, Chu Mingjing informed the entire Duke Chu Residence to gather in the front courtyard.
In fact, Duke Chu was very clear that the only person who had a grudge against her was his first wife.
How could Chu Mingjing not have the heart to endure a lady who had already passed out? Was he joking?
That night, after sending a message to the Chen Palace, Chu Mingjing quietly waited in the Residence of Chen for Chu Moxi to collect the results the next day.
On the second day, everyone in the Duke's Mansion waited in the front yard according to Chu Mingjing's arrangements. However, they didn't see Chu Moxie since the morning until the evening.
Just as Chu Jingjing was angry that Chu Moxi was messing with him, Butler Lin's report came through the door.
"The royal concubine is here!"
When Chu Ming heard Housekeeper Lin's announcement, his original anger immediately disappeared. Instead, he had a smile on his face as he walked out to welcome him.
A light purple figure slowly walked in from the front door. Other than Lian'er and Liu Fu, there was no one else behind her.
There wasn't the sort of ruckus in front of such a grand scene. Just bringing along two people showed Chu Moxi's calmness and her confidence.
She, Chu Moxi, dared to come to Duke Chu's mansion alone.
Chu Ming saw that the figure was getting closer and closer. His indifferent gaze didn't have that kind of haughty expression, but it made Chu Ming think of the Heavenly Kingdom's Feast where Chu Moxi had the feeling of being a queen.
"Welcome, Crown Princess." Since things had gotten to this point, Chu Mingjing didn't care about his face anymore. It was the right thing to do now by fawning on the Duke Chen Palace.
"Duke Chu greets you!" Chu Mo Xi's tone was cold and aloof, as though she was saying that she wasn't too familiar with him.
His eyes lightly swept over Duke Chu's servants standing in the front courtyard, pausing on the third wife for a moment before feigning surprise and asking, "Why is it that this wangfei has disturbed Duke Chu's business?"
"No …." "No, how could that be?" Chu Mingjing almost said that he had been waiting for a whole day.
"Duke Chu, please continue. This wangfei will just take a stroll around." Chu Moxi had a carefree expression on her face as she slowly moved her feet. However, she did not casually stroll around. Instead, she casually found a seat and waited to see how Duke Chu would end his justice.
Chu Mingjing's expression froze. How could she not act dumb?
"That... Everyone in the First Lady's courtyard step out. " Under Chu Mo Xi's gaze, Chu Ming Jing's tone became a bit abnormal.
When everyone in the Duke Chu Mansion heard Chu Mingjing's order, they wondered what was the Duke planning to do today. They all looked at each other, hesitating. Finally, everyone in the First Lady's courtyard stood up.
Five days had passed since Chu Moxi participated in the national banquet. Because it was related to the prestige of the Mu Spirit Empire, she had done a very good job of keeping it a secret. Those who had received some information were probably the only ones with great power and influence. The commoners didn't know of this as well.
The first wife's eyes were a little dazed. The moment she saw Chu Moxi, she was so scared that she shrank into a corner, not daring to move. She even muttered, "Wretch, damn it …"
"Crown Princess Chen, look …" Chu Mingjing turned around to look at Chu Moxi, waiting for her to speak.
"Duke Chu!" Are you sure they're all here? " Chu Moxi didn't even bother to glance at these people. Besides the Madam, everyone else was just a flea. Furthermore, Duke Chu had yet to give her the person she wanted to deal with.
"Crown Princess, you see, there is nothing missing." Chu Mingjing lowered his head. Who else?
"Duke Chu, is this your sincerity? This wangfei is truly disappointed. " A cold smile appeared on Chu Moxi's face. It didn't matter if Duke Chu was playing dumb or not, she wouldn't let him play along.
After hearing what Chu Moxi said, Chu Jingjing immediately understood the meaning behind her words.
Chu Mingjing looked awkwardly at Chu Moxi and said, "About that …" "Mu Ci is already a member of General Lin's estate, and this noble has no right to hand her over to you."
Chu Mingjing only had Chu Mu as his daughter. Now that Chu Mu was a member of the General's Estate, he decided to protect her.
Unfortunately, he had underestimated Chu Moxi's determination and overestimated his own strength.
"General Lin's Estate?" This was an old acquaintance of this wangfei's! Then may I trouble Duke Chu to inform the General's Estate that this wangfei wishes to meet an old acquaintance. " Chu Moxi still remembered that when she had walked over, she had coincidentally met Eldest Young Master Lin at the door to end the engagement.
She still remembered the humiliation of the marriage contract being torn to shreds!
"Alright …" After weighing the pros and cons in his heart, Chu Ming decided to give up on Chu Mu's words.
Chu Jingjing was such a person who only loved him. For his sake, he could lose anyone by his side, and it was only because Chu Moxi saw through this that she dared to be so aggressive.
Chu Mingjing immediately ordered Lin Xuan to go to the General's Estate to deliver a message, while Chu Moxi quietly sat there and waited.
Who knew how much time had passed when he saw Xuan Lin rush in through the main entrance, Lin Zhiqing behind him, Lin Luobai behind him, and Chu Mu's face full of panic as he was brought in by the two guards of the General's Estate.
As soon as they entered, they saw Chu Moxi sitting there.
Lin Zhi Cheng immediately pulled Lin Lu Bai and bowed to Chu Mo Xi, "Greetings, Crown Princess!"
Chu Moxi lazily raised her head. Her calm and tranquil gaze swept over Lin Zhicheng's fawning face, and finally landed on Lin Ruobai's body.
Lin Ruobai felt Chu Moxi's gaze and raised his head to look at her.
He remembered that not long ago, he tore up the marriage certificate and said haughtily: "I, Lin Ruotian, am strong enough to bully you, Chu Moxi. What about it?"
At that time, she had only said one thing, "Thirty years in the river, thirty years in the river, don't look down on this young man's poverty."
At the time, he still thought her words were ridiculous, but now, half a year had passed and she had slapped those words onto his face from a high vantage point.
Lin Lu Bai's heart was filled with bitterness. If at that time he hadn't come to Duke Chu's mansion to break off the engagement with her, then what face would he have now?
She belonged to him, and everything in the House of Chen belonged to the General Lin …
It could only be said that Lin Ruobai was overthinking things. Even if he hadn't broken off the engagement, it would be impossible for Chu Moxi to follow any of his engagements and marry him.
In addition to her encounter with Shang Chen, her love for Shang Chen was already destined.
As for Shang Chen and Lin Luobai, how could they be compared?
The corner of Chu Moxi's mouth hooked into a mocking smile as her eyes shifted away.
In fact, Chu Moxi also felt that it was very strange. She still remembered that time when she hatefully looked at Lin Lubai, who had come to end the engagement with her. At that time, Chu Moxi had thought that one day, she would definitely get back the humiliation she had suffered that day.
Now that today's situation had really come to this, Chu Moxi suddenly felt that it had become faint. The humiliation that Lin Luobai had left her back then didn't seem like much anymore.
On the contrary, she was very happy. If it weren't for the shame of Lin Lubai rejecting the engagement that day, how could she have come to this day? Why would she meet Chenchen?
Chu Moxi calmly turned away from Lin Ruobai's body. The latter stared at Chu Moxi. Could it be that she was so dismissive of him?
At this moment, Lin Luo Bai's eyes were filled with rage! Because of Chu Moxi's blatant disregard. She was infuriated.
Chu Mo Xi's gaze turned towards Chu Mu. Compared to Jun Li, Chu Mu was relatively calm.
She calmly looked at Chu Moxi, her eyes flashing with resentment. It was all because of this slut, Chu Moxi. She had gone from the young miss of Duke Chu's mansion to the eldest young mistress of General Lin's estate.
"Eldest Young Madam Lin, long time no see!" A smile could be seen in Chu Moxi's eyes.
"Chu Moxi, you slut, you must not be good …" Before Chu Mu could finish speaking, Chu Ming slapped his face.
Pow!
On the right side of her face, a purplish palm print was left.
"Do you think you should call her by her name now?" Chu Mingjing's expression was ugly as he stared at Chu Mu. Did she not see the situation? Was the current Chu Moxi capable of scolding? If you want to die, don't drag me down.
Chu Mu held his face and raised his head to look at his father. His eyes were filled with tears.
"Hehe …" Duke Chu should not be so fierce towards Eldest Young Madam Lin, it should be enough to scare her. " Chu Moxi had an expression that said 'don't scare the Lin Clan's Eldest Young Mistress'. It looked like she was truly in love with a sister.
Of course, no one would think so!
Chu Moxi glanced at Duke Chu. "This wangfei remembers that my personal maid almost died in the courtyard. At that time, even this wangfei was scared to death. Speaking of which, the Japanese princess would like to know who did it today. "
Lian'er was startled when she heard Chu Moxi's words. Was her boss trying to seek justice for her?
At that time, it was the boss who had saved her. Only then would she be able to survive.
The entire front yard was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.
The Crown Princess was standing up for her personal maid. Anyone who bumped into her would die!
Many people were glad that they weren't the ones who attacked Lian'er at that time.
At this moment, there was only one person in the crowd whose body was trembling. It was Steward Lin.
He craned his neck, hoping that Chu Moxi didn't know it was him.
However, he was destined to be disappointed!
Chu Moxi's eyes swept across the crowd, then she lightly said, "No one stands up on their own? Then this wangfei will pick people himself! "
As Chu Moxi spoke, her body suddenly exuded a murderous aura.
When Butler Lin heard Chu Moxi's words, he was so frightened that he immediately kneeled on the ground, "This lowly one was wrong! "This lowly one follows the first wife's orders …" Housekeeper Lin's voice trembled, his head knocking against the ground.
As soon as Steward Lin spoke, Duke Chu's expression became ugly. He had always held Steward Lin in high regard. First, Steward Lin was a person of the public. Second, Steward Lin was one of his people.
Now that he found out that Housekeeper Lin had become the wife's man, how could Chu Ming endure this?
"What a great steward …" Chu Ming pointed at Housekeeper Lin and wished he could kill him. However, he knew that Chu Moxi would not let Housekeeper Lin off so easily, so he felt slightly better in his heart.
