Chapter 295 Don't Coax Me

"Brother, if something happens to the Wei family, can you protect A-Lan?"

Hearing Shen Jiaojiao's slightly childish question, Meng Hun let out a laugh from his throat.

"Haha, you."

He gently stroked the woman's soft long hair, as if to comfort her.

"Don't worry, he's still lying there right now, so why would he bother with these trivial matters?"

"Who knows? He might just be pretending to be sick," she muttered.

She couldn't understand the royal family's disputes.

The wealthy families in the storybooks would fight to the death for their property, not to mention the most honorable dragon throne in the world.

Maybe that person was not sick at all, he just wanted to observe the actions of the princes and ministers and find out the bad apples among them.

Meng Hun's eyes flashed slightly, and he grasped her shoulders with both hands and pulled her out of his arms.

"Jiaojiao, you can't say that. Don't tell anyone about it in the future. You can't say anything that slanders the royal family."

She was stunned, looking at her brother's serious face, and swallowed in fear.

"Shen Jiaojiao, promise me."

Seeing the man's solemn expression, she nodded slowly, "Okay, I understand."

"Be good." Meng Hun softened his attitude, pulled her back into his arms, rubbed the back of her head, and continued the previous topic.

"Nothing will happen to the Wei family. If Prince Qing could really intervene in the previous dynasty, he wouldn't have gone all the way to Lin'an.

"Besides, if that person saw that it was the note sent by Prince Qing, he might even praise Prefect Wei for his integrity."

Shen Jiaojiao pursed her lips and smiled slightly.

Indeed, officials are not fools. How could they not see what Prince Qing is planning?
She felt much better and struggled to get out of the man's arms.

Meng Hun quickly let go of his hand.

She looked up at her brother, then looked at the snowy scene outside, and then pointed at the snow on the ground.

"The snow has stopped, and the people are saved."

Meng Hun looked in the direction she pointed and saw a thick layer of snow in the yard. He instinctively looked up at the sky above his head.

The weather is nice today, but...

No one can guarantee whether it will snow later.

"Yes, the people are saved." The man responded.

"Brother, stop flattering me." She pouted and crossed her arms over her chest. "With such a thick layer of snow, it's possible that many families have been affected."

Meng Hun curved his eyebrows and saw that she was so adorable, worrying about the country and the people. He couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her cheek.

"Brother!" Shen Jiaojiao said to him, covering her face and taking two steps back, "What are you doing?!"

"My Jiaojiao is really cute."

Her cheeks flushed red and she glared at the person in front of her in embarrassment.

"Stop talking!"

Meng Hun was afraid that she would get angry and get sick, so he quickly coaxed her, "Okay, okay, I won't say anything. It's cold outside, let's go inside and talk."

As he spoke, the man took her to the east wing.

Shen Jiaojiao's ears turned red. She refused to go to the east wing no matter what and insisted on going through the corridor to the main room.

Meng Hun had no choice but to order Yuzhu to bring the cloak and carefully put it on her.

The two of them walked into the main room together.

After the servants brought up tea, Shen Jiaojiao waved everyone away and asked about the thing that had been on her mind.

"Brother, has the Meng family's water transportation been completely blocked?"

Meng Hui was a little surprised and looked at her inquiringly, "Why do you suddenly think of asking this?"

She sighed, "The signature product of Mengxianju is Mengxian wine. I heard Li Shang mention it before, but there is not much stock and it is difficult to open the waterway."

"Jiaojiao, you don't have to worry about these things. I'll take care of everything." "How can I not care? I should have guessed that you have been getting close to the Jiang family these days because you wanted to borrow the power of Governor Jiang... It was me who messed up and caused Jiang Yi to misunderstand..."

As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes and her eyes turned slightly red.

If the Meng family's foundation was destroyed because of her, how would she cope with it?
Meng Hun's face darkened, and a hint of anger appeared in his eyes.

"Misunderstanding? You and I understand each other, how can there be any misunderstanding?"

Shen Jiaojiao was surprised, "That's not what I meant..."

"Don't mention this again in the future. There is no misunderstanding between us. Jiang Yi guessed it right. I just like you, Shen Jiaojiao." The man said in a hard tone, "Even if the Jiang family gave me real gold and silver to exchange with me, I would not be willing."

Her heart trembled and her mouth opened and closed, but she didn't know what to say.

Brother Yi, why do you always say these embarrassing words...

"Alas." Meng Hun sighed, his eyes full of loneliness, "You have too much in your heart, and I don't even have a corner, but my whole heart is all you. Shen Jiaojiao, you are very unfair."

These words were like a heavy hammer, hitting her heart hard.

Her pupils trembled slightly and she almost forgot to breathe.

She couldn't respond to such a profound confession.

Suddenly, Yuzhu's voice came from outside.

"Master, Miss, the son-in-law is here and is waiting outside the courtyard gate."

Shen Jiaojiao breathed a sigh of relief and shouted outside.

"Tell him to come in!"

Yumei outside responded and left, and soon brought Chen Yuanli in.

Shen Jiaojiao did not wait in the main hall, but went to the inner room at the back and asked Keying to help her tidy up her clothes, and also to suppress the tears in her eyes.

From across the wall, Chen Yuanli's respectful voice came.

"Brother, where is Jiaojiao?"

"Tsk, where are your manners? Have you learned them like a dog?"

This barbed question instantly made the atmosphere cold.

Shen Jiaojiao, who was hiding inside, couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Chen Yuanli seemed to have heard her laughter, came back to his senses from his embarrassment, and immediately apologized.

"It's Yuan Li who is wrong."

After saying this, he bowed respectfully again.

Meng Hun stared at the man in front of him coldly, feeling very angry.

All the clever ideas Li Shang gave were of no use at all. No matter how many sweet words he said, Shen Jiaojiao was not willing to divorce.

Turn around and scold Li Shang!
Shen Jiaojiao came out from behind and saw that Chen Yuanli was still saluting. She couldn't help but glared at Meng Hun.

"Brother is in a bad mood today."

Afterwards, he asked Keying to help Chen Yuanli to sit opposite.

In short, she didn't want to sit with Chen Yuanli.

Meng Hun was a little unhappy when he saw her taking care of Chen Yuanli, but when he saw her placing Chen Yuanli across the street, he suddenly felt relieved.
"I was so angry yesterday."

Meng Hun made up an excuse and immediately glanced at Chen Yuanli.

"I heard that you came into the mansion early in the morning just to visit Meng Wan?"

Chen Yuanli stiffened his neck and replied, "I, I did go to see Wan'er. She was so angry that she vomited blood last night. The court doctor said that her condition was not good..."

Meng Hun's lips curled slightly, but his smile didn't reach his eyes. "That's perfect. I invited Madam Yue to come into the mansion. I wanted to ask her to check Jiaojiao's pulse. She should also be sent to the main courtyard to check Meng Wan later."

When Chen Yuanli heard this, he thought Meng Hun valued Meng Wan, so he quickly agreed.

"That's great, Wan'er will be so happy."

Shen Jiaojiao looked at Meng Hun in surprise.

She had no idea that her sworn brother could be so mischievous. Meng Wan had ulterior motives, so how could she dare to let Lady Yue take her pulse?
My brother is causing trouble for those two people in the main courtyard!
