Chapter 40 Shocked! The princess is pregnant with the emperor's seed
One month later. Jiangzhou.
Gold leaves line the banks of the river, and a light boat crosses Cangshan Mountain.
"gorgeous."
At this moment, Mei Wen'er was riding a river sail, admiring the autumn leaves on the riverside, staring at the Cangshan Mountain in the distance, and felt that the beautiful scenery of the south of the Yangtze River in front of her was priceless.
Although the autumn scenery in the south of the Yangtze River in the previous life was beautiful, it was not as beautiful as the pure ancient style and almost original beauty of the current land. She made a profit by living in the south of the Yangtze River this time.
"Miss, I haven't been here for many years."
Xiao Hua, who was accompanying Mei Wen'er, had grown up with her. The young lady in my impression was severely seasick and had a heart disease, so she only came to Shen's house once.
The Prime Minister's wife had to manage the Prime Minister's house, and after giving birth to Mei Wen'er, her health deteriorated a lot, and she did not return to the Shen family for seven or eight years.
Most of the children of the Shen family are merchants and have not been to the prime minister's house very often, so even if Mei Wen'er is not disguised, no one in the Shen family recognizes her.
"Yes." Mei Wen'er also felt a little emotional and wanted to see more of the river scenery.
But Xiaoruan on the side has already warned: "Miss, don't stand on the bow of the boat. The wind is strong. Be careful of catching a cold. You can still see if you go inside and open the window."
"Yes, yes, my little housekeeper." Mei Wen'er joked.
"Humph." Xiaoruo snorted slightly, "Young lady knows how to laugh at you, maid. If you catch a cold, Master Shen won't let you out next time, and the maid won't help you."
"Yes, yes, our little softie is very powerful. I'm scared, okay, let's go in now." Mei Wen'er laughed while talking, but she didn't want to look at the beautiful scenery anymore.
However, Mei Wen'er, who remembered that her medical energy had grown stronger and had internal strength, was not too worried, "I have been in good health recently, I shouldn't catch cold so easily."
"Grow some snacks." Xiao Ruan said, having already taken the ginger soup handed over by Chen Chun, and wanted to feed it to Mei Wen'er who had just sat down, but the latter shook her head, "I don't want to drink it."
I don’t know why, but Mei Wen’er, who didn’t dislike the smell of ginger in the past, now dislikes the taste very much and refuses to take a sip, “I won’t drink it if I don’t want to.”
Xiao Ruan could only coax, "Just drink a few sips to take away the cold air."
"No." Mei Wen'er firmly refused to drink, "You and Xiaohua can drink."
Chen Chun, who was guarding the door, sighed when he saw this, but he did not dissuade him. Instead, he looked outside and saw that he was approaching the pier. There was a mixture of fish and dragons, so he had to be careful.
But Xiao Ruan, who really couldn't coax Mei Wen'er, could only drink the ginger soup in one go. "Miss, what a waste. Manager Chen cooked this."
Because of his special status, Shen Suifeng did not assign any servants to Mei Wen'er from the Shen family. He only asked Chen Chun and the other three to continue to serve her, so as not to expose her identity due to confusion among people.
However, although there were not many servants, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Shen Suifeng felt very pity for this niece who had returned from being a widow in the border town, and her treatment was comparable to that of the direct young lady of the Shen family.
This naturally aroused jealousy, so Xiao Ruan still warned, "After returning home, Miss Shen must not mention that Master Shen chartered a big boat for you to swim on the river to relieve your boredom, otherwise Miss Shen San will cause trouble for you again.
.”
"I know, I'm not stupid." Mei Wen'er was a little speechless, and she was very perfunctory. She looked past the cabin window and looked at the dock that was getting closer and closer.
Because it is the intersection of the canal and the river, Jiangzhou Wharf is very busy, with merchants coming and going unloading goods, and countless people disembarking, but——
"Guan Feng?"
Seeing the familiar figure, Mei Wen'er stood up in surprise, wanting to see more clearly.
However, although her eyesight has improved a lot due to practicing the "Jasper Sutra", Guan Feng's clothes are similar to those of dock workers, and they are covered up when she bends down and puts on her bags.
However, Chen Chun heard her call and came to her side. He was looking in the direction she was looking at. After staring for a while, he frowned and asked, "Did Miss see it wrong?"
"I don't know." Mei Wen'er wasn't sure either, so she wanted to take a look again, but she couldn't find anyone.
Chen Chun thought for a while and then made a decision, "After getting off the boat, Xiaohua and I will go to the teahouse with the young lady to sit for a while, and my subordinates will go down to check."
"Okay." Mei Wen'er agreed, "Be careful. If he is here, he probably isn't coming for me. I'm sure, let's just avoid him."
"I understand." Chen Chun also meant the same thing.
Therefore, before getting off the ship, Chen Chun put on a disguise mask to make things easier.
Waiting for everything to be arranged——
Mei Wen'er, who was sitting in the elegant room of the teahouse, drank tea and occasionally looked at the dock in the distance, "I wonder if Chen Chun can successfully find someone."
"If the Governor is really here, Manager Chen will be able to find out." Xiao Ruan was very confident, "Don't drink too much tea, it's cool."
Mei Wen'er: "..."
"Don't glare at me, maid. Who told you not to drink ginger tea? The wind blew just now, so naturally you can't drink more tea." Xiao Ruan said confidently.
Mei Wen'er ignored her, but she didn't drink any more tea, but she didn't know -
In this teahouse, there is a person hiding: Prince Qing!
King Qing, who followed him from Gyeongju to Jiangzhou, has been waiting for an opportunity!
Now, he felt that the opportunity had come, "Chen Beihu is not here, there are only two little maids, oh, God is really helping me!"
Prince Qing acted immediately after thinking about it. He immediately went to the private room on the second floor and knocked on the door of the private room where Mei Wen'er was. "My guest, the refreshments you requested are here."
Xiaohua who was guarding the door had no doubt that he was there. She had already opened the door and was about to take over the plate of tea!
King Keqing had jumped into the room, closed the door without saying a word, and even subdued Xiaohua, who was skilled in martial arts!
"save--"
Xiaohua was about to shout for help!
Mei Wen'er immediately interrupted, "Don't scream! We have something to discuss, don't hurt anyone!"
The movements she was looking at were clearly intended to break Xiaohua's neck, which she didn't want to see.
Fortunately, Prince Qing didn't intend to cause any harm or trouble, so he just knocked Xiaohua unconscious and threw her aside.
After Mei Wen'er finished speaking, Xiao Ruan clenched her teeth and protected Mei Wen'er behind her, "Don't come over! If you want money, just ask!"
"Money? Ha." Prince Qing sneered and stared at Mei Wen'er, "Don't you recognize me?"
"Prince Qing?" Mei Wen'er was not sure. After all, when she "met" Prince Qing, they were not only far apart, but also very dark.
Moreover, isn’t Prince Qing dead?
She remembered that her father had said that King Qing was dead, so Ye Chenfeng could successfully take over Qingzhou's power.
But the person opposite had already smiled and said: "That's right! It's me. Since you know what's going on, come over by yourself! Otherwise, don't blame me for killing your two maids first!"
"You can't go!" Xiaoruan immediately stopped him, "Miss, you can't go there."
"It doesn't matter." Mei Wen'er said, "Since Prince Qing belongs to His Majesty, and I have nothing to do in the past, he can still kill me? You know, I am pregnant with Your Majesty's child!"
King Qing: "!"
How is that possible? What a liar!
Not only did he think so, but Guan Feng, who was following him and originally planned to come in, also thought so!
