The emperor's scheming: alluring the world

Chapter 74
"If you think so, then you are!" The eldest princess said coldly, seeing Li Meiying's unmoved appearance, she smiled sarcastically, and said again: "Do you know why only the Bo family are present today?" , in fact, this time is called a lake tour, and the real purpose is just to see each other. As long as you leave this boat, news of you and Yu Zhan's private life-long engagement will spread throughout Xindu tomorrow. When you say that, you Can you still push this marriage?"

Li Meizhen looked at the confident look of the eldest princess, as if everything was under her control, she suddenly felt funny, no wonder this woman couldn't beat Empress Wu for so many years, she was so stupid.

"The eldest princess is so imposing, the order can't be fulfilled, now change the threat, but the eldest princess, you really don't understand me, my sister-in-law Li won't eat anything soft and hard, and the emperor dare not tell me in such a tone about my marriage , your power is greater than that of the emperor. As for Bo Yuzhan, I really don't like it. You can do whatever you like, but I also want to remind you that the dead never pose any threat, anyway, neither do Bo Yuzhan. It’s just that Bo Yuzhan has one son, so it’s no big deal if one dies.”

"Are you threatening me with Yu Zhan's life?" Li Meiying's words made the eldest princess gasp, she looked at Li Meiying in disbelief and asked.

"Don't you also threaten me with my reputation, and repay the body with the other's way." Li Meiying smiled charmingly when she approached the eldest princess, and then she turned to look at the distant scenery, and continued coldly: " I heard that Mrs. Bo is not loved by Mr. Bo in the Bo Manor. If she hadn't had a son, and the mother clan had your eldest princess and son-in-law backing her, the position of wife would have been taken away long ago. If she has a son Mrs. Bo's position as the main wife is barely secure. If she loses her son, she will become the second cousin very soon. At that time, the eldest princess's mansion will have to take in Mrs. Bo. This burden is not light, and the eldest princess should be earlier It’s about being prepared.”

"Li Meizhen, human life is a matter of heaven, you don't dare!" Feeling a little upset in her heart, the eldest princess forced herself to be calm.

Seeing that the eldest princess is still so reckless, Li Meiying suddenly turned around, and said fiercely: "There is nothing that my Li Meiying dare not, if you don't believe me, you can try it. , Presumably the eldest princess also knows that no clues have been found in this case so far!" At this point, Li Sister-in-law paused for a moment, and suddenly said: "If it wasn't for the sake of you helping me back then, the last time Yang Xianling instigated Li Changning to humiliate me, it will never be kind, I will accept your invitation today, it is to give you the last chance, if you still can't see your situation clearly, just wait for the eldest princess's mansion to fall into flames Let's cook!"

The eldest princess had never seen such a frightening aura exuding from Li Meiying, she couldn't help but backed up a few steps in fright, Aunt Cen looked at Li Meiying, only feeling apprehensive in her heart, she hesitated for a moment before emboldened He said: "Princess Yingsu, don't be angry, the eldest princess was just joking with the princess just now, and the eldest princess will not make such jokes in the future."

"Eldest princess, I will bear with you for the last time and call the boat to dock." Li Meizheng said to the eldest princess with a slightly relaxed expression.

The eldest princess was stunned for a long time before she came to her senses and hurriedly said to Aunt Cen, "Hurry up, get the boat to the shore."

Soon, the boat arrived at the bank of the Yujing River, Li Meiying went ashore, and met Zhong Yan head-on, accompanied by a beauty, Li Meiying had seen this beauty before, she was Mu Jinglian, the daughter of Mu Sheng, Minister of the Ministry of Officials .

Mu Jinglian, as her name suggests, has a figure as clear as a lotus flower, her skin is as clean as a white lotus, her eyes are large and moist, revealing a soft brilliance.

"Greetings to Princess Yingsu, the princess is blessed." Zhong Yan and Mu Jinglian saluted Li Sister-in-law.

"You two are free from courtesy." Li Meizhen said in a soft tone, changing from the previous fierceness on the boat.

"Where is the princess going?" Zhong Yan glanced at the painting boat docked on the shore, and asked meaningfully.

"The eldest princess invited me to go on a lake tour. Who knows that something happened halfway and needs to be dealt with, so I let the boat dock and I was planning to go back home." Li Meiying explained simply, and then her eyes met Mu Jinglian's. Turning around on his body, he finally returned to Zhong Yan and said, "It seems that Mr. Zhong and Ms. Mu are also here to swim in the lake."

"Princess, there are so many people visiting the lake, why don't you come with us!" Zhong Yan admired Li Sister's talent and learning, so he wanted to have a close friendship.

Li Sister-in-law did not agree to Zhong Yan, but looked at Mu Jinglian with friendly eyes. She knew that although Zhong Yan and Mu Jinglian were cousins, they also liked each other. She didn't want Mu Jinglian to misunderstand. .

Mu Jinglian has heard many things about Li Meiying, because she and Yang Xianling are not on good terms, so she has only met Li Meiying a few times, but she is friendly with Li Xueshang and others. Chang heard that Li Sister-in-law is talented and knowledgeable, and now seeing that she seems to be interested in making friends, she said with a smile: "My cousin is right, the lake is full of people, the princess will come with us!"

Even Mu Jinglian opened her mouth, and Li Sister-in-law nodded happily, so the three of them boarded the boat in the Zhongfu, while the eldest princess and the others went ashore and returned to the mansion.Before Bo Yuzhan got into the carriage, he still reluctantly looked at the painting boat that had left the river bank, with a look of disappointment on his face.

Mu Jinglian is also a very well-known talented woman in Beijing, but she is more introverted than Li Xueshang, and she rarely attends gatherings of noble ladies such as poetry clubs.

The three of them are all talented and knowledgeable, and they cherish their talents very much. They soon became acquainted with each other. When they came back from the lake tour, the three of them were still full of ideas, so Li Meizhen proposed to go to Shiyaxuan to have dinner together. Mu Jinglian didn't object, so she happily agreed.

After dinner at Shiyaxuan, they each got into their own carriages and went back to their various residences.On the carriage, Yunyu saw Li Sister-in-law still had a smile on her face, so she also smiled happily: "It seems that the princess likes being with Mr. Zhong and Miss Mu very much. The princess hasn't smiled so happily for a long time."

When Li Meizhen heard this, the smile on her face faded. She knew what Yunyu meant, and she was so happy when she and Wei Jinyang first met. Denied, she and Wei Jinyang did have a lot of speculation, but he happened to be Wei Chengzhi's son.

Seeing a flash of sadness in Li Meiying's eyes that she didn't notice, Yunyu was puzzled for a moment, but she didn't dare to ask more questions.

On the other hand, Bo Liuzi bowed her head obediently, but her lowered eyes shone with calculating light.

After that trip to the lake and the eldest princess broke up, Li Sister-in-law never left the house. Even if she went out occasionally, it was only at the invitation of Zhong Yan and Mu Jinglian, and Li Yi and his son were dragged by many parties in Beijing. There are many banquets, big and small, and as long as there are places where they attend, Li Meiying will not be seen. This makes Li Yi's idea of ​​removing Li Meiying at the banquet impossible. In order to get rid of Li Meiying's scourge, he Had to take the initiative to show favor to Queen Wu.
