She has a slender waist and delicate bones, and is able to seduce the ascetic horse.

"Yes, I also think this matter is strange in every way." Yumei agreed with her young lady's words, "Maybe there is something hidden in it. I will send someone to check it out."

The two people on the opposite side were a little surprised.

"It's just an extra period, why does Sister Yumei take it so seriously?" Ke Ying asked.

"What if it's not Madam Meng's period?"

Hearing this, the two of them gasped, looked at each other, and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

"You, you mean, Second Miss..." Ke Xin stuttered and couldn't say a complete sentence.

Yumei nodded, "Yes."

If this matter is as they expected, then Meng Wan is really brave. Isn't he afraid of being exposed?

"Sister Yumei, remember to investigate quietly and don't let this matter leak out." Shen Jiaojiao warned her, "I plan to divorce Chen Yuanli. If it is revealed at this time that Meng Wan is not pregnant, I am afraid Chen Yuanli will not easily agree to divorce me."

Yumei smiled with relief, "It's good that the young lady has figured it out."

The three maids were happy for her.

The young lady has suffered a lot of injustices in this marriage. Now it is not bad for them to part ways and live happily together.

Furthermore, the relationship between the young lady and the young master is complicated and difficult to clear up...

Maybe it will change because of divorce.

Yumei didn't know that she was planning to leave the Meng Mansion after the divorce, and at this moment she was secretly happy for Meng Hun.

The four of them chatted for a while, and seeing that it was getting late, Ke Ying stood up and left.

She went to take care of the affairs in the courtyard and also pulled Ke Xin out.

Ke Xin blinked blankly and left with them.

Only Shen Jiaojiao and Yumei were left in the room.

Yumei took out a hairpin from her bosom and handed it to Shen Jiaojiao.

"What is this?" Shen Jiaojiao raised her eyebrows, took the hairpin and looked at it carefully.

The hairpin is exquisitely crafted, but the material used is not valuable.

If you sell it outside, it would be worth only a few taels of silver at most.

Yumei stretched out her hand and touched somewhere, but suddenly a silver needle popped out from the end of the hairpin.

The silver needles were nailed into the solid wood tabletop, three inches deep into the wood.

Shen Jiaojiao was so frightened that she let out a short cry and almost dropped the hairpin in her hand.

"What's going on?!" she asked in shock.

Yumei took the hairpin in her hand and played with it, a playful smile appearing on the corner of her mouth.

"This was found on Meng Wan."

"Meng Wan? How did she get these things? Who gave them to her?"

"No." Yumei shook her head. "The young master should have told you, right? The person behind her is the one on the dragon throne, but since she returned to the Meng Mansion, that person has never contacted her again."

"My brother has told me about this."

"She thought she would no longer be needed after completing her mission there, so she boarded King Qing's ship."

"What?!" Shen Jiaojiao widened her eyes, unable to figure out what Meng Wan was thinking.

After following that person, do you dare to change your master?
This is because they are afraid that their life will be too long and will add more suffering to their life!

"I confirmed with her that Prince Qing didn't know that she was the chess piece planted in the Meng Mansion. When she and Jiang Yi surrendered to Prince Qing, he gave her the hairpin." Yumei said.

Her eyes darkened, "Who does Prince Qing want to kill?"

"Young Master."

"Brother?! How can he be my brother?"

Shen Jiaojiao was so shocked that she forgot to breathe. It took her a long time to react and she looked at the hairpin carefully again.

What is the grudge between Prince Qing and his sworn brother?
Why did he use Meng Wan to kill his sworn brother?
Could it be that... Prince Qing covets the Meng family's property?
"Meng Wan said that she didn't know why Prince Qing asked her to kill Meng Hun. She said that she couldn't do it because of the deep love between them. " "Deep love between them? If they are not brothers, how can there be a deep love?" Shen Jiaojiao pouted in annoyance.

Yumei did not comment on this matter.

Several people have already known that Meng Wan is not the real Miss Meng. Now they are just playing along to see what that person wants to do to the Meng family.

"In addition, Jiang Yi also revealed a lot of court affairs." Yumei paused and looked her up and down.

She coughed lightly and said seriously: "Go ahead, don't worry, I already know what Prince Qing is thinking."

Only then did Yumei feel relieved and told her Jiang Yi's confession.

According to Jiang Yi's account, Prince Qing wanted to seize power.

He is the person standing behind the Lin family and has already firmly controlled the Lin family in his hands.

In Lin'an, the Lin family was too small and could not even be compared with the Meng, Jiang, and Wei families.

Prince Qing's attitude towards the three families is also very interesting. He tries to win over the Jiang and Wei families, but he tries to annex the Meng family - after Meng Wan poisons Meng Hun, Prince Qing will take the opportunity to encroach on the Meng family's assets.

"How does he cannibalize?" Shen Jiaojiao asked.

Yumei glanced at her, then quickly lowered her eyes to hide the complex emotions in her eyes.

"Meng Wan told Prince Qing that you are still a virgin. Prince Qing wants to take you into his room and enjoy your beauty and wealth..."

"How shameless! I would never be with him even if I die!" Shen Jiaojiao spat, her face flushed red with anger.

No wonder Prince Qing suddenly made a move on her.

It turns out that Meng Wan also had his hand in this!

"Miss, don't worry. The young master is very skilled in martial arts. This hairpin can't hurt him at all. You should be more careful."

As she spoke, Yumei reached out and pulled out the silver needle on the table, pointing her finger at the top of the needle.

"The silver needle is poisoned. If it accidentally pricks you..."

Shen Jiaojiao pursed her lips and asked uncertainly: "Meng Wan intends to use it against me?"

"Yes." Yumei's eyes were solemn. "Don't worry, I will always be by your side and won't let anyone get close to you."

She didn't act pretentiously and nodded vigorously in response, "Okay."

"The young master is planning to spread the news that Meng Wan has surrendered to Prince Qing. It would be best if that person or his close ministers knew about it." Yumei added.

"Brother, do you want others to restrain Prince Qing?"

"Yes."

"What about the young marquis? Isn't the young marquis a royalist? He should be able to..."

Yumei interrupted her, "The young marquis has to stay in the capital to prevent the princes from fighting among themselves, so he can't leave the capital for now."

"Does the young marquis know what Prince Qing did?"

"The young master has sent a letter back, but the young marquis has not replied yet. I guess it will take some time."

Shen Jiaojiao nodded, "That's right."

She suppressed her panic and poured a cup of tea for Yumei herself, "Sister Yumei, thank you for your hard work."

"What are you talking about, young lady?" Yumei raised her hand and rubbed her hair, smiling gently, "You, the most important thing is to be safe."

The master and servant chatted for a while until Aoxue returned from the villa, and then Yumei left.

Aoxue carefully brushed off the snow on her shoulders at the door and walked in feeling cold.

Shen Jiaojiao quickly asked her to warm up her body.

Aoxue frowned, looking like he was troubled by something. He didn't even go to warm himself by the fire, but walked straight to his young lady.

"Miss, Aunt Zhou's condition is not optimistic."

Shen Jiaojiao took a deep breath and asked in disbelief: "What happened? Didn't you say that I could just rest in bed? But was it caused by the fall today?" (End of this chapter)
