I married the wrong man, and I sent him and his whole family to be executed.
Chapter 293 Red Silk
Chu Fei was completely defeated. After Chu Yuheng's death, many ministers who supported Chu Fei withdrew and joined the eldest prince's camp.
Chu Fei did not try to stop this. What could not be kept would never be kept. It was just a throne, which he did not care about.
All he wanted was for his mother to be healthy, Feng Zhao to be happy, and for the people he loved to live a long life. So Chu Fei also secretly stationed troops, but he was different from Chu Aotian in that Chu Fei wanted to withdraw from the capital safely during the war.
Of course, they would try to avoid fighting if possible, after all, civil war would do them more harm than good.
Originally Chu Aotian thought he had a sure win, but Liu Ruchu came out and killed him based on his identity.
It is said that the Imperial Astronomical Observatory calculated that there is still a prince of Da Chu wandering among the people, and claimed that the prince is the son of the previous emperor. If he is not found and included in the family tree, there will be turmoil in the royal family and the Da Chu country.
Although Chu Xiongfeng did not believe this, he could not resist the pleas of the court officials, so he symbolically assigned someone to go among the people to look for the missing "brother".
It was at this time that Liu Ruchu appeared in everyone's sight. He claimed that his mother was Lan Li'er. The old ministers in the court naturally knew what happened that year, so they insisted that Liu Ruchu was the child of Lan Li'er and the late emperor, and was Chu Xiongfeng's younger brother.
The emperor was naturally furious and wanted to kill everyone who knew about this, but he couldn't stop people from talking, so he had to confer the title of prince on Liu Ruchu and grant him a mansion.
He was obviously my son, but now he has become my brother. It is such a shame and humiliation.
Even so, the emperor never thought of executing Liu Ruchu.
When he met Liu Ruchu before, he felt that he looked very familiar and wanted to get close to him, so he trained Liu Ruchu and trusted him very much.
He was originally the son of an old friend, and the fruit of his love with Lanlier.
Perhaps because of his age, the emperor liked this child very much and wanted to see the shadow of Lan Lier in Liu Ruchu.
He loved Lanlier, but he liked the country more than love. However, after he had the country, he wanted love more.
"I didn't expect you to be my little uncle." Chu Fei deliberately said.
Just now in the court, Chu Fei almost laughed out loud, but fortunately his acting skills over the years allowed him to keep a calm expression.
What brother? He's obviously a son, hahaha.
"Seventh Prince." Liu Ruchu nodded slightly as a gesture of greeting.
"Is the Emperor's uncle going to host a dinner party today? Can I bring my wife with me?" Chu Fei asked deliberately.
No one knows why Liu Ruchu revealed his identity at this time. Chu Fei always feels that he is not a simple person. If he doesn't understand this kind of person clearly, he will put himself in danger.
"Okay, then I will prepare a family dinner at home." Liu Ruchu nodded in agreement.
Seeing that Liu Ruchu looked normal and showed no joy at being canonized, Chu Fei felt even more strange.
At dinner time, Chu Fei brought Feng Zhao in men's clothing to the new palace, and Yu Wangfei also came uninvited.
"Congratulations, Tenth Prince." Yu Wangfei congratulated.
When the old prince dies, a new prince will naturally appear.
"Just call me Lord Liu as usual." Liu Ruchu said implicitly, "I don't want to be a prince either. I just want to be a good judge of the Dali Temple and bring all the guilty people to justice."
"Guilty people, what do you think are guilty people, Lord Liu?" Yu Wangfei asked deliberately.
She felt that the matter of Chu Yuheng's memorial was closely related to Liu Ruchu. If he had been kind enough to protect the memorial, how could someone have taken advantage of it? It was possible that Liu Ruchu had replaced the memorial herself.
"Anyone who breaks the law is a criminal, anyone who endangers the country and the people is a criminal, and anyone who violates moral principles is a sinner." Liu Ruchu talked freely.
"Then is the person who framed Chu Yuheng and changed the memorial a criminal?" Yu Wangfei kept staring at him, wishing to find some flaw in Liu Ruchu.
"Of course." Liu Ruchu nodded, "Anyone who harms others for his own benefit is definitely a guilty person."
"Okay, Master Liu, please remember what I said today."
Could it be that the matter of Chu Yuheng really has nothing to do with Liu Ruchu?
Since Chu Yuheng's death, Yu Wangfei has been investigating the truth of the matter, but there seems to be a hand behind this matter, which quietly took away all the evidence.
There are twelve days left until their wedding day. Even if Chu Yuheng is not here, she still wants to marry him.
On the twelfth day, Yu Wangfei went out to buy wedding supplies. She thought of decorating the Yu Mansion to make it more lively, and then go to the Ninth Prince's Mansion to decorate it in bright red.
Yu Wangfei wanted to buy more red silk, so she took the initiative to go to the silk shop and told the owner that she wanted to buy all the red silk in the store.
"What a coincidence! All the red silk in our shop has been bought by Miss Lu." The shopkeeper pointed at Lu Xiaoting in the distance with an apologetic look on his face.
Lu Xiaoting and Yu Wangfei got married on the same day, but one was a wife and the other a concubine. However, according to the etiquette of the Great Chu, only the wife could use bright red, and the concubine could only use pink or rose red. So what was Lu Xiaoting trying to do by doing this?
"Miss Lu, did you buy this red silk for me?" Yu Wangfei asked.
"Wang Fei, have you forgotten that my wedding to the eldest prince will be in a few days?" Lu Xiaoting's face was filled with a little happiness.
Maybe she didn't really like Chu Aotian, but she hated Yu Wangfei even more. Now that Chu Yuheng was dead, she would do anything that could disgust Yu Wangfei or give her the chance to kill Yu Wangfei.
"As far as I know, you have not been promoted to a co-wife." Yu Wangfei smiled contemptuously.
To put it nicely, she was a concubine, but in reality she was just a concubine.
"So what!" Lu Xiaoting retorted.
"According to the etiquette of the Great Chu, concubines are not allowed to use bright red on their wedding day." Yu Wangfei said deliberately, and hinted to the maid beside her to take away the red silk.
But Lu Xiaoting firmly protected the silk behind her and refused to give in: "My father is the number one general of the Great Chu. What does it have to do with you if I use red? Yu Wangfei, I have bought all the red silk in the capital. You are the one wearing pink on the wedding day!"
How could Lu Xiaoting not understand this etiquette rule? She did it on purpose so that Yu Wangfei would use the pink ribbon on the wedding day and make everyone misunderstand that Yu Wangfei was the concubine.
"You are a concubine, and you use the color red. Aren't you afraid that I will report it to His Majesty?" Yu Wangfei shouted loudly, deliberately letting everyone in the room hear clearly.
The guests looked at each other and sized up Lu Xiaoting with disdain.
"She is a concubine, how can she have the nerve to use bright red?" a woman complained.
Lu Xiaoting was furious: "Even if I don't use it, I won't let you use it!"
After saying that, Lu Xiaoting picked up the scissors beside her and cut the red silk into pieces.
