Chapter 168 Is Chu Yu going to be killed?

Chu Yu held her mother's hand, her eyes filled with resentment.

Father, and that First Madam, how dare they!
Chu Yu was also filled with regret. If only, if only her identity had not been exposed this time, if only she had returned home in glory as the top scholar, her mother would not have suffered all this!

Unfortunately, fate played a cruel trick on us.

At this moment, Kong Xuan seemed to realize something, and her face was full of fear.

She grabbed Chu Yu's hand and said, "Yu'er, hurry, you must leave the Chu family. You can't stay here."

"Your father won't let you get away with this."

You must leave!

Kong Xuan knew that unfaithful man's character very well; he always put himself first.

He will favor whoever can help him achieve his interests!
He will destroy anyone who harms his interests!
He didn't care if that person was his bedmate or his own flesh and blood.

Chu Hanwen is such a cold-blooded person.

Therefore, even if Chu Yu is pardoned by His Majesty and can return safely this time, Kong Xuan feels that Chu Hanwen will not let her Yu'er go.

"...Yu'er, you must leave quickly, hurry!"

"Mother, I'm not leaving!"

"You want me to leave? Then go ahead and leave. How can I leave you alone and go by myself?"

Kong Xuan knew Chu Hanwen's personality, and Chu Yu, as his daughter, naturally knew it too.

If she leaves, she can simply walk away.

But what about her mother?

Chu Hanwen will never let her mother off the hook.

Much of what she does now is in the hope of providing her mother with a stable and secure life.

If, if her mother were no longer here.

What's the point of all her efforts over the years?

"No, Yu'er, you have to leave!"

"For the crime of deceiving the emperor, where will you send this wicked girl?!"

Just then, a voice suddenly rang out from outside, accompanied by many footsteps.

Chu Yu, Kong Xuan, and the others looked up and saw Chu Hanwen leading a group of servants, entering with an imposing air.

Those tall and burly servants were each carrying a stick.

Kong Xuan hurriedly tried to get up to protect Chu Yu behind her, but she was too weak to get up.

Instead, Chu Yu slowly stood up, her face calm as she faced her father, her blood father!
"Men, seize this wretched girl!" Chu Hanwen said coldly.

At a single command, the servants were about to come over.

Chu Yu: "Who dares!"

"His Majesty has not convicted me, so what right do you have to arrest me! What, do you intend to do things that His Majesty has not done?"

"Could it be that you're planning a rebellion?!"

Her words successfully stopped the servants in their tracks. They looked at each other in bewilderment before turning to look at Chu's father.

Chu Hanwen snorted coldly, "You've committed the crime of deceiving the emperor, do you think you can still live? Don't drag the entire Chu family down with you."

"Besides, I am your father. Even if I were to beat you to death, no one would dare to say anything to me!"

Since ancient times, filial piety has been considered of paramount importance, even surpassing the heavens.

Killing?

So, Chu Hanwen really intends to kill her?

A hint of sadness flashed across Chu Yu's eyes.

But it was fleeting.

She should have known better.

She shouldn't have any hope for this father.

At this moment, Chu Yu had completely lost any remaining affection for her father, Chu Hanwen.

"Yes, you are my father. You can kill me if you want, but..."

Chu Yu paused for a moment, then said, "But you can't do that! His Majesty hasn't decided how to deal with me yet, so how can you overstep the emperor's authority!"

"If you punish me, what will you do when His Majesty comes looking for me?"

"Furthermore, His Majesty has already pardoned my crime of deceiving the emperor, yet you, as my father, want to beat and kill me. Father, what do you think His Majesty will think?"

To be honest, Chu Hanwen was really frightened by Chu Yu's words.

Yes, killing Chu Yu is fine, but if His Majesty finds out, he might think that as a father, he killed his own child and be considered ruthless.

What will be the impact on his career in government?
Seeing that Chu's father was thinking and hesitating.

Chu Yu knew then that she had made the right bet.

Chu Hanwen, as expected, still cares most about his own interests.

To persuade him, you can only do so by considering his interests.

Just as Chu Hanwen was hesitating about whether or not to keep Chu Yu, this wretched girl, with him.

Suddenly, a sharp sound rang out from outside.

"Master, don't be fooled by Chu Yu!"

"His Majesty's forgiveness of her crime of deceiving the emperor is already merciful. Allowing her to return home is the greatest forgiveness. How could he possibly pay any more attention to her?"

As they were talking, Madam Liu Piaoxu strode in with an imposing air.

Originally, Liu Piaoxu had not planned to come.

But if she didn't come, she was afraid that Chu Yu, that cunning man, would say something sophistry to fool Chu Hanwen and get him to let her go.

So, she was still worried and came over.

Upon arrival, he immediately heard Chu Yu's words and Chu Hanwen's hesitation.

She spoke up immediately.

I also know that coming here was the right thing to do.

"My lord, this wretched girl dares to commit the crime of deceiving the emperor now. Who knows what trouble she will cause in the future?"

"If His Majesty can forgive her once, can he forgive her twice or three times?"

"I'm afraid that if she causes trouble again, our Chu family will face more than just you losing your official position, sir. We might even have our whole family executed."

Lost his official position?!

The entire family to be executed?!
Chu Hanwen's heart skipped a beat when Liu Piaoxu said these words.

Then there was no more hesitation on his face.

"Men, seize Chu Yu!"

This time, he didn't hesitate at all.

Liu Piaoxu's lips curled into a smile, her face full of smugness.
Chu Yu is dead, and Kong Xuan, that sickly woman, will probably be next soon.

At that time, there will be no one to worry about in the Chu family mansion.

"No, Chu Hanwen, Yu'er is your daughter, you can't do this, cough cough, you can't do this." Kong Xuan desperately tried to protect Chu Yu.

However, Chu Hanwen's servants had already surrounded Chu Yu, and one by one they were about to grab him.

Just as Chu Yu was about to be taken away by these servants, another voice rang out from outside.

"Women can now participate in the imperial examinations! Women can now participate in the imperial examinations!"

The person who rushed in, shouting loudly, was none other than Conde.

Although Kong De went to the capital with Chu Yu to take the imperial examination, he also returned with him.

However, just in case, Chu Yu still chose not to let Kong De follow her into the Chu family.

That way, if anything happens, we can take care of each other.

At that moment, Comte entered.

Madam Liu Piaoxu frowned as she looked at Kong De, who rushed in to stop her, her eyes full of impatience.

Why is there always someone trying to stop me?

"What nonsense are you talking about."
