The eldest princess widened her eyes in disbelief. Who is this gentle and cautious man in front of him? Is this still the high-ranking county king she is familiar with
She has served the prince for seventeen years, and she has never seen the prince so gentle and careless towards anyone. Even when she was the youngest and favored, the prince was a god to her, so she didn't dare to The existence of direct gaze, even if she had conceived children with him and lived with him for so many years, the eldest princess still did not dare to touch the slightest bit of King Xiyue's inverse scales.
The surprise of the second princess was only for a moment. She saw the stupid expressions on the faces of the first and third princesses, and took a few steps back calmly.
Qin Yining got up and avoided Zhou Meng's approach by saluting, and said, "Why did the prince come in person?" After a brief pause, he said, "The little girl is grateful for the help of the prince that day, but now I am very grateful. My body is much better now, because I don't want to cause trouble to the prince, it is more convenient for me to live with my clan. As a thank you gift for saving me, I will…”
"Why do you suddenly think like this?" Before Qin Yining could finish her words, Prince Xiyue interrupted her anxiously, "Isn't it okay this afternoon? This prince also said that your clansmen are allowed to come to the palace every day to accompany her. You, aren't you very happy to hear it? Why do you regret it now?"
Qin Yining smiled and said, "It's nothing, just living in the king's harem.
Zhou Meng frowned and looked at Qin Yining, then turned to look at the people around him, and saw that the servant girl beside Qin Yining had a bandage on her head and blood stains on her clothes. face.
Looking around for a week, everyone can't help but bow their heads wherever they can, especially a maid standing in the corner, shaking like a sieve, looking like the sky is about to collapse.
Zhou Meng said in a deep voice, "Come here and tell me what's going on." He stretched out his long arm, referring to the maid next to the eldest princess.
The maid's heart skipped a beat, her face paled and she threw herself on the ground, kowtow and said: "The prince, the prince, calm down, the maid didn't do it on purpose. Stand firm, and then hit your head. The goddess was angry and quarreled with our princess, and the maid was also eager to protect the master."
The maid was drenched in cold sweat. In her urgency, she couldn't care whether what she said was true or false, and the logic was not smooth. Now she just wanted to try her best to absolve her of the crime, and she didn't know if the princess would protect her.
Zhou Meng listened to what she said in a topsy-turvy manner, his eyes floated as he spoke, and he became even more puzzled.
"Little lowly maid, you dare to be dishonest when speaking in front of this king. You have a lot of guts." The ending sound was long and very intimidating.
The maid was so frightened that she curled up on the ground, just kowtowing. Tears fell down along with the cold sweat uncontrollably, and she whimpered: "Yes, slave, I am under orders, under orders..."
"Shut up, you bitch!" Seeing that the idiot wanted to shake her out, the eldest princess rushed up and kicked her hard.
This time, it hit the back of the maid's heart, kicking her and crawling to the ground with a painful "ah".
"My lord, don't listen to her nonsense. It's clear that she deliberately pushed the maid next to Miss Pang. Maybe they have a grudge."
Zhou Meng sneered when he heard it, tapped his temple with his finger, and said, "Look at what this king is?"
The eldest princess did not know why, and looked confused: "My lord..."
"This king's head is not an empty shell! She is a maid, even if she has hatred against others, how can she have the courage to take revenge in front of her master? If she can't tell her, how dare she! It seems that none of your masters and servants plan to say it. The truth!" One finger pointed at the second princess: "You tell me!"
The second princess lamented in her heart, it would be good if she could bring down the eldest princess at once, but if she couldn't, she would tell the truth now, wouldn't she want to anger this mad dog in the future
Seeing that the second princess did not speak, Zhou Meng became more and more angry, and just as he was about to point someone else, the third princess rushed to say: "My lord, it is like this, today is the eldest princess who said that the prince has a crush on a girl and intends to make her the fifth princess. , Our sisters were curious, so we came together to talk to the fifth sister. Who knew that the fifth sister had a really strong temper. She disrespected the eldest princess and said those hurtful things in a few words. The maid next to the eldest princess could not see it If you want to teach a lesson on behalf of the master, if you know it, just…”
The next words were slowly swallowed under Zhou Meng's stare.
"Is that the case?" Zhou Meng turned to Qin Yining.
Qin Yining sneered: "It seems that the prince treats his wives and concubines very well on weekdays."
The implication is that the people here actually have the courage to deceive the king again and again.
The first and third princesses looked up at Qin Yining in disbelief.
What is vicious? That's called viciousness! One sentence will push them all into the abyss!
Zhou Meng's shy face turned red. He originally wanted to please the beauty. When the beauty was wronged, he descended from the sky like a god to help her achieve justice and make her feel grateful and admired. Who knows that these bitches will be demolished one by two. his desk! The shame was thrown at grandma's house!
Zhou Meng's face turned purple and turned into an eggplant skin color, and a storm of rage was already brewing in his eyes.
Under the anger, his voice has also been raised: "Why, in front of this king, you dare to lie one by one, when you are this king, there is no place to ask you what you said and did today! This king asked You guys, it is for your face, but you have to give your face shameless! Good! Then this king will fulfill you!"
Zhou Meng shouted angrily, "Someone!"
The guards outside the door entered in response, put down the spear in his hand and knelt down on one knee to salute: "The king."
"Tell me what happened here just now!"
The guards looked at each other in dismay. They were outside the hall. How do you know what happened
The captain of the guard had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "King Hui, we were outside and vaguely heard the dispute. We couldn't tell exactly what happened because of the distance."
Zhou Meng almost fell to his knees in anger.
Qin Yining lowered his head, mocking even more in his heart.
It seems that this county king is not only greedy, short-sighted and arrogant, but also not very capable.
If this kind of thing were in the palace, Pang Zhixi might frighten people to the brim with just one look, and if he tried to tell the truth, why would he take a step with a whip like this time.
The more this happened, the more Qin Yining missed Pang Xiao. The mood that was originally unmoved by today's events gradually turned gloomy, and his brows furrowed impatiently.
Seeing Qin Yining frown, Zhou Meng only thought that she was dissatisfied with his appearance today, and immediately felt that her face was dull.
In a fit of rage, Zhou Meng just wanted to send all the idiots out of these bad things!
The second princess watched her words and expressions, and saw Zhou Meng's expression was so hideous, and her face, neck, and ears were all red, and she understood that if she didn't come out at this time, even she would be dragged by the first and third princesses. .
The second princess immediately pinched her thigh, squeezed out tears in pain, sobbed forward and said, "My lord, my lord, don't be angry, the concubine said, the concubine is just afraid, afraid that the lord will give birth to sisters. They don’t dare to speak their anger.”
The eldest princess and the third princess turned back angrily and stared at the second princess.
"You said." Zhou Meng said angrily.
The second wangfei explained everything that happened just now, and finally knelt down and gave a big salute: "The concubine body is useless, the concubine body is timid, and I dare not say inappropriate words to make the eldest princess and the third princess unhappy, but the concubine body is really unwilling. Look at the prince being deceived. Pang girl has a gentle temperament and is not good at arguing with others. Today, she is only bullied, and she has no place to seek justice after being bullied, so she said she would leave the palace."
In the end, he smartly gave Qin Yining a high hat.
Because the second princess knows that the prince is now determined to like the goddess, and he will definitely bring it into the palace. Why should she be in trouble? Now that the goddess is not good, the prince is angry
Thanks to those two idiots, the two of them bullied the goddess, and she wanted to do the opposite. She had to say good things about the goddess, let the goddess remember her kindness, and let the prince know her position.
When Zhou Meng heard this, he was so angry that he kicked the eldest princess to the ground: "You bitch! Who gave you the guts!"
The eldest princess was in great pain in the kicked leg, tears streaming down her cheeks, and she didn't forget to beg for mercy: "My lord, calm down, concubine didn't do it on purpose, it was just impulsive, and although concubine quarreled with Miss Pang, she didn't. If you want to beat someone, it's the cheap servant who does it, and she makes her own decisions!"
Qin Yining became more and more impatient, rubbed his brows and said: "Prince King, the little girl doesn't care about this. It doesn't matter whether the eldest princess is intentional or not, it doesn't matter. I think the three princesses are impulsive because of a misunderstanding. , In order to avoid suspicion, I think it would be better for me to live with the clan first. My health is getting better now, if I continue to stay here, it is really inappropriate."
Qin Yining was indeed exhausted. Under the light, her face was as white as snow, and she frowned slightly, revealing a somewhat delicate state.
How could Zhou Meng let her leave like this, and hurriedly said: "No, you just treat this as your home, didn't you say everything before?"
"Your Majesty, it's really not suitable for me to recuperate here."
Qin Yining wanted to leave, but Zhou Meng refused to agree. When the two were able to tell the difference, the eldest princess and the third princess, who were kneeling on the ground, were already gnashing their teeth in hatred.
When she did this, didn't she irritate the king more and more, and in the end, the king's anger was not vented on them.
The second princess looked at the trembling figures of the first and third princesses, and couldn't help but chuckle.
Qin Yining had already publicly revealed that he was bored with the palace, and today's incident was indeed caused by the provocation of the people in the palace, Zhou Meng thought: such a delicate beauty, I think she was frightened by these rude and stupid women broken. If you insist on staying strong, you are afraid that you will have to keep revenge. Anyway, Xiyue is such a big place, surrounded by deserts. Even if she lives with the clan, she can't escape. When she becomes a relative, does she want to live back
Thinking of this, Zhou Meng pursed his lips and nodded, "Okay, this king will send you there in person."
