Meng Qiqi saw that Sheng Jiayan was not only not drunk, but drank tea elegantly, picked up the cases piled up on the carriage and looked at it. Meng Qiqi's mouth twitched twice and replied, "Let's go out of the Qin Mansion with Sister Liu."
Sheng Jiayan paused in the hand of the dossier, raised his head and said, "You dare to run around even if the eldest sister is married, but it really spoils you on weekdays."
Meng Eqi shrank the injured hand into his sleeve.
Sheng Jiayanfu lowered his head again, and his hand didn't stop looking at the file, but he confessed: "The prince of Beiyan is about to enter the capital, don't go out and walk around these few ****, the current situation is turbulent, you stay in the mansion obediently. ."
"Prince Beiyan?" Meng Qiqi thought about it carefully, it seemed that he had sent an envoy to Chu two years ago and asked Beiyan to marry her.
She is no stranger to Beiyan Mengqiqi, but Beiyan is a country as powerful as the Great Chu, and most of the gems and pearls in her residence in the palace, Hemanman, come from Beiyan.
Because of the luxurious style of Beiyan, everyone from the emperor to the people advocates gorgeousness.
Fortunately, Beiyan's national strength is strong, otherwise it would be really arrogant and extravagant to destroy the foundation of the country.
Meng Eqi didn't have a good impression of Bei Yan, but sighed sadly. Because once a messenger entered the palace, her uncle Xie Chongming would call her into the palace to attend the singing and dancing banquet together. Since Meng Yizhen's incident, Meng Eqi has never entered the palace again. Even if Xie Chongming and the queen invited her to play in the palace one after another, she refused for various reasons.
She didn't want to resent Xie Chongming, but she couldn't get rid of the lump in her heart, so she simply avoided dealing with it.
Sheng Jiayan seemed to see through her thoughts, and said in a soothing tone: "Don't worry, I remember that I promised you."
Meng Eqi was taken aback: "What did you promise me?"
Sheng Jiayan raised his eyes and looked at her, finally shook his head and sighed, and simply didn't answer.
Well, she forgot the best, but fortunately he remembered it for her.
In Liu Mansion, as soon as Liu Ning returned home, her mother greeted her: "Ning'er came back so early today, wasn't she invited to the wedding banquet in Qin Mansion?"
Liu Ning's face was bad and her mind was heavy, so she could only perfunctory her mother: "Ning'er greedily drank a few cups today, and now she is so dizzy, she wants to come back early and rest."
After listening to Mrs. Liu, she asked the maid to help her back to the room to rest.
In the room, Liu Ning screened out the idle people and other people, leaving only Biyun, the maid who served him personally. Her usual gentle and graceful face, at this time, showed a bit of cruelty because of her paleness: "Biyun, the news you have received is that the prince of Beiyan will meet the third sister of Mengfu, but there is no accident in his life! It looks like you lied to me, right?"
Just this morning, her maid Biyun came in from outside, and someone anonymously and secretly wanted to send her a message. On the note, the prince of Beiyan will quietly enter the capital today, and will have a wonderful fate with Princess Laiyi. Liu Ning would never believe such a note. But the person who wrote this note seemed to have anticipated her thoughts, so she added more later. If Liu Ning still wants to be the new Mrs. Jie Yuan, she might as well follow and see for herself.
These words completely pierced Liu Ning's heart. Although she is not suspicious, she does wonder if there is something elusive between Meng Eqi and Sheng Jiayan. First of all, they are not real brothers and sisters. The reason why Sheng Jiayan was able to enter the Meng Mansion was because Meng Qiqi tried his best to prevent him from going to Beiyan at the court. At that time, she and Sheng Jiayan knew each other before, why did she desperately want to keep him and bring him back to Meng's house when the Sheng family just had an accident.
All of this is a mystery. Liu Ning likes Sheng Jiayan, and she also knows that Sheng Jiayan has great potential, so she is unwilling to let such a person go. In this case, she must find out whether Meng Eqi and him are just brothers and sisters. If so, she doesn't have to worry about anything. If not, no wonder what she did to Meng Eqi.
Biyun has hurriedly knelt down: "Sister! The slaves would never dare to deceive you! The slaves and slaves are all sold in the Liu Mansion, how could they help people who are unknown to harm you? The one who delivered the note, he lied to us!"
Liu Ning closed his eyes slightly and took a deep breath.
That's right, Biyun didn't dare to harm her, let alone harm her. The one who really calculated her was the anonymous person who passed the note. If the man in red that he met on the street today was the prince of Beiyan, then he would have known Meng Qiqi's expression later. However, Meng Qiqi's reaction seemed to be a beat slower. In this way, the prince of Beiyan did have an unclear relationship with Princess Laiyi. But if this is the case, what is the plan of the person who passed the note? Asked her to coax Meng Eqi out, and witnessed what happened again, what was that person trying to figure out
Liu Ning rubbed his brows, only to feel that there are thousands of threads in this matter that she can't figure out.
With Sheng Jiayan's advice, Meng Eqi really stayed at home for a few days. After Meng Yihui got married, she and Meng Yilian became more and more diligent in serving in front of Mrs. Meng, so that Mrs. Meng would not feel sad when she thought of the married Meng Yihui and Meng Yizhen, whose whereabouts were unknown.
Sheng Jiayan's affairs in the court are getting smoother and smoother. The emperor appreciates him very much. Don't be vigilant at this moment, just wish that Sheng Jiayan could be an uncle at this time.
Meng Eqi was honest at home, but there was something uneasy at Juxian Station.
I saw that the boy in red that night was also wearing a red robe at this time. He sat on the chair and thought carefully, and asked the guard next to him: "Are you not handsome enough from my back last time?"
The guard was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly patted the horse: "Master Shizi has always been handsome."
Rong Heng flipped the table: "Then why didn't she come to see me! Even though I reported the location, she didn't come?! Did she not take me seriously? It's strange, there is no woman. Can resist the charm of my lord, she actually! Why doesn't she come!?"
The woman who took the risk and saved the limelight had no interest in him, and didn't even come to the inn where he lived to inquire. You know, Rong Heng was touted everywhere he went in Beiyan, and there were countless girls who passed out in tears with excitement, but who would have thought that he had hit a hard nail in Chu country!
The guard quickly moved the fallen table back, racking his brains to comfort: "Of course ordinary women can't resist the charm of Shizi, but the other party is Princess Laiyi. It's not like you haven't seen Shizi, you were in the hall back then. In order to get a remnant of treason, she would not hesitate to hit a pillar! Such a fiery temper, of course, is different from ordinary women. "
Rong Heng felt that his reasoning was very reasonable, and remembered the time when he pretended to be the servant of the Beiyan envoy to observe in the temple. Princess Laiyi, who was dressed in red and green, really made his memory fresh, and the degree of fright was no less than a ghost in the daytime. I thought she was just a spoiled princess, but she was as knowledgeable as herself, and at a glance, she could see that Sheng Jiayan was the most unsophisticated person.
Thinking of her decisive attitude last night, Rong Heng found her more and more interesting.
Immediately, he lifted his robe: "Let's go."
The guard immediately said happily: "Master Shizi finally wants to enter the palace to say hello to Emperor Chu?"
Rong Heng glanced at him: "No, I'm going to Meng Mansion."
At the end, he added: "Bring some good things with you."
Meng Eqi was still teasing the turtles they raised with Meng Yilian, and there was Old Taijun Meng's maid hurriedly walked from the front hall to the backyard, and said to the two of them, "Second sister, third sister, the prince of Beiyan is visiting and wants to see third sister. , people are already waiting in the front hall. The second young master is not in the mansion, and the eldest young master and the eldest lady also went to her parents' house, so the old lady means that if you don't want to go, she will refuse for you... "
Meng Qiqi frowned for a moment, what did the prince of Beiyan want her to do? They didn't know each other, and he didn't go to the palace to greet him, but came to Meng's mansion. If this is spread out to people with a heart, it is possible that the Meng House has more air than the emperor. When this unpredictable disaster comes down, can the current Meng House be able to stand it
Meng Eqi was afraid that after rejecting him, he would sway around with great fanfare, and quickly said: "It's okay, I'll go to the front hall now, you go and tell your grandmother."
At this time, in the front hall, Mrs. Meng was sitting on the top, and the prince of Beiyan was sitting on the right, just looking at the decoration of the hall.
Meng's mansion is more expensive than his prince's mansion.
"I don't know why His Royal Highness is coming here to find our sister?" Mrs. Meng couldn't figure out what this young man was going to do, so she could only test it out first.
Hearing the old lady's question, Rong Heng quickly got up and bowed very politely to answer: "Old lady, the first two were in the market, and a horse I brought from Beiyan lost control and almost hurt the people. Fortunately, Meng San Sister is very courageous. She helped me stop the crazy horse and reduced unnecessary losses. I came this time to make amends. After all, I was in a hurry last time, and I couldn't apologize properly. Is Miss Meng a princess? Respect, I want to treat each other more politely."
The old lady Meng laughed dryly, just as Meng Qiqi came in, she hurriedly said: "Qiqi, the prince is apologizing to you for the incident of riding a horse last time."
Rong Heng saw the person coming, and hurriedly shifted his gaze. Meng Eqi was wearing a thin begonia-colored skirt today, with an elegant and sweet hibiscus painted on her ****. The color of the dress was bright, and her bright wrists were covered with frost and snow, and her face was like warm jade. A face is even more different from two years ago. Now Meng Qiqi is amazing and attractive. No matter from which angle you look, she gives a different kind of feeling.
Rong Heng's heart throbbed, and politely said, "Miss Meng, it was abrupt last time."
Meng Eqi had long watched his carefree eyes scratching back and forth on her body without concealment. At that time, she didn't like this prince of Beiyan, because it was not good for her face, and she was afraid that Mrs. Meng would be worried, so she just smiled. The meat does not smile perfunctorily: "I didn't take this matter to heart, the prince's words are serious."
