During her stay in Lingnan, Meng Duiwan worked very hard to imitate the appearance of a rich girl, but there was always a trace of timidity and uneasiness in her eyes, and this kind of inferiority emanating from her bones did not last for a short time.
Can be changed.
I don’t know how many noble people I’ve seen like the Queen Mother, and I can tell what’s in her eyes with just one glance.
"Yes, I suffered a lot, especially when I returned to the capital by mistake and had to make a living under the hands of people who didn't know what they were doing. Also, my granddaughter is destined to have a narrow escape from death several times. Otherwise,
I'm afraid all the bones are rotten by now!" Mrs. Meng, who was sitting next to her, said in a conspiratorial tone.
The Queen Mother looked at Mrs. Meng helplessly: "As you said, who knew she was your granddaughter at that time?"
"What's wrong? She's not my granddaughter, but she's just a commoner. How can she be bullied like this? Is it possible that there is no royal law in this imperial city?" Mrs. Meng raised her eyebrows slightly, with dissatisfaction in her eyes.
"What do you mean by this?" The Queen Mother sighed, "I know that you love your granddaughter, but you can't bite anyone in sight. Aren't I just trying to make a fool of you? What happened before
, you yourselves don’t know, otherwise with your family’s temper, no matter how indulgent the Hao girl is, she won’t be able to take advantage of your family!”
"It's not that I'm blaming anyone, I'm just feeling unhappy. Others don't know. Doesn't the Queen Mother know? How did Wanwan lose it and for whom? We people have a clear conscience. We are a family from the oldest to the youngest.
We all risked our lives for the safety of our country, but our lost girl was bullied like this outside. Every night when I think about it, I burst into tears and runny nose, and my heart aches very much." Meng
The old lady said, her eyes red again.
Mrs. Xu quickly consoled her: "Don't you think the person has been found now? If the person has been found, then the future will be good. We can't always look at the past, we have to look forward.
look."
"Yes, we have to look back, but every time I think about it, if I hadn't found her, I don't know where she is now?" Mrs. Meng sighed, "I am just such a granddaughter, and I will also have hers in the future.
I don’t know who to give it to…”
Mrs. Meng had to be strong throughout her life. She would often say that she would be worthy of the people of the world and the monarch she served, and that she would never have any regrets in her life. But now, the Queen Mother saw regret in Mrs. Meng's eyes.
She knew that Mrs. Meng really felt sorry for Meng Duiwan!
The Queen Mother looked at it and felt very distressed. She touched Meng Duiwan's face and said, "I have a granddaughter who is about the same age as you. She is in the imperial garden now. You can play with her!"
"ah?"
"Go, that's Princess Chunhe, go and play!" Mrs. Meng waved her hand.
Grandma took Meng Duiwan and left, leaving only three old ladies in the room talking about themselves.
When Meng Duiwan was taken to the Imperial Garden, there were many people standing in the Imperial Garden. Among them was a woman in luxurious clothes who was admiring the flowers. Someone probably said something to her, and then she turned around and saw
Meng Duiwan was also stunned for a moment, and then walked over with a smile: "Are you the daughter of Yongchang Houfu?"
Meng Duiwan knew that this was Her Royal Highness the Princess, and she quickly saluted: "Bless your Royal Highness Princess!"
"No need!" Chunhe naturally took Meng Duiwan's hand, "Don't call me Princess, just call me Chunhe! I will be your sister-in-law in the future!"
"Ah?" Meng Duiwan looked surprised.
"I have seen you in the other courtyard before, but I changed my appearance a little at that time. Why, you don't recognize me?" Chunhe looked at Meng Duiwan and said softly.
Meng Duiwan's eyes lit up: "Is it you?"
Chunhe smiled and said: "It's me, so I will be your sister-in-law in the future. You and I should not be so different."
"You like my eldest brother?" Meng Duiwan looked at Chunhe with surprise on his face.
"Is it weird? Although most of the rumors about him are not very good, I know that he has always been a well-read poet, but he is just upset and always pretends to be a playboy!" Chunhe was a little helpless.
He lowered his head and said, "He actually hated me before."
"Ah? Why?"
"Don't you know why you lost it?" Chunhe looked at Meng Duiwan and asked softly.
"It was said that someone was chasing me and that's why I was lost..."
"Yes, someone was indeed chasing you, but at that time, I was their main target. I wanted to go out and play so much, so I sneaked into Meng Shaoqing's team and pretended to be a female envoy. Later, I was
You were discovered and met the assassin. In order to protect me, Mrs. Meng sent all her people to protect me. She only called a small team to take you away from the road. Those assassins thought you were me and they were crazy.
I'm going to hunt you down!" Chunhe looked at Meng Duiwan and said softly, "I'm sorry, Wanwan!"
Meng Duiwan looked at Chunhe in front of him, paused, and then said with a smile: "You are Her Royal Highness the Princess, and you must be loyal to the Emperor. Protecting the princess is what we should do!"
"You don't resent me at all?" Chunhe was a little surprised.
Meng Duiwan shook his head: "No, the princess must have suffered more than me these years. After all, I don't remember anything, not who I am, who my parents are, let alone what happened to me."
What, but Her Royal Highness the Princess remembers everything, I’m afraid no one hates me more than Her Royal Highness herself!"
Chunhe blushed slightly, then took Meng Duiwan's hand and said, "You are exactly the same as you were when you were a child. You are kind-hearted and not at all like the girl from Yongchang Houfu!"
"Um?"
"Don't you know? The people in the Yongchang Marquis Mansion are the ones who hold grudges the most. Because of this incident, your eldest brother didn't talk to me for several years. Later, he grew up and slowly let go of his grudge.
Those who are willing to take care of me!" Chunhe smiled bitterly, "You are the only one in your family, you are kind-hearted and never hold grudges!"
"Probably, I look like my mother!" Meng Duiwan smiled.
"Hao Jiaojiao, I have never liked her. She flatters others and puts them down. She has no so-called scholarly bearing. She is not very good-looking, so she just got the title of a talented woman. In fact, how much does she have?
She knows best." Chunhe thought of Hao Jiaojiao and couldn't help but frown, "Just be careful, I know all the things she did to bully you, and I will definitely help you get revenge!"
"You are the princess, wouldn't it be wrong to bully a minister's daughter?" Meng Duiwan couldn't help but ask.
"What's wrong? If you can, let him go to my father, the Queen, and the Queen to file a complaint against me! Besides, my father and mother are most afraid of the Queen Mother!" Chun He smiled, "The Queen Mother loves me the most.
She also specifically told me to take good care of you and never let you be bullied again!"
Meng Duiwan looked at Chunhe with bright eyes: "Then I will definitely try my best to make you my sister-in-law!"
Chunhe hugged Meng Duiwan and said, "My little Wanwan. You are really the best!"
Meng Duiwan was hugged by Chunhe. She was stunned for a moment, then slowly reached out and hugged Chunhe.
Maybe it's because they met her when they were young. Although she doesn't remember anything, Meng Duiwan always felt that she was particularly kind and had some inexplicable affection for her.
However, Meng Duiwan was happy to play with Chunhe here, but he was on the sidelines for a long time with the emperor and empress.
As soon as the court came, the emperor and the queen were summoned by the queen mother, but they were nowhere to be seen and were only asked to wait in the guest hall.
"Mrs. Meng has brought the Meng family girl into the palace!" The queen was a little downcast.
The emperor still held on, and did not speak for a long time, just sitting there.
"Your Majesty, tell me, the Queen Mother is angry?" the Queen said cautiously.
The emperor thought for a long time and then said: "Don't worry, I sent someone to call the prince here. With the prince here, the queen mother will not care too much about us! Don't worry, don't worry!"
The queen looked at the emperor and felt more and more uneasy!
