Chapter 410 Dismayed
When King Dingbei didn't move, Liuli also kept quiet.Mei's family has been hidden all her life. The old man has always thought that the continuation wife he married has a narrow mind but has no major problems. Once the face is torn apart now, of course he will not be able to bear it.Liuli is not in a hurry, she knows that the old man can't rub the sand in his eyes, and there will be a day when he will have a showdown with the Mei family, but Liuli can't wait too long, who knows if he will think of love and let her go?Therefore, while Liuli was waiting for his showdown, she was also preparing for another move. If he didn't move for a long time, then she would force him to move.

During the waiting time, Yuegui conveyed news about Xiangying to Liuli from time to time. Liuli had never paid attention to such a person before. In her opinion, no one around Mei was worthy of her eyes.However, the news brought by Yuegui in the past two days allowed her to catch some things that were not in line with her expectations, because Xiangying was officially transferred to Rongxitang's study by King Dingbei.

"Xiangying was the prince's liaison girl in the early years. Because she only served the prince for a few months, she was never promoted, so everyone forgot about this level all these years. Madam also always regarded her as a real person. The former son Madam sent her to the study to serve as a waiter, and also specifically explained that she would return to the back hall of the upper room at night. But these two days, the prince left Xiangying to take care of the study."

When Yue Gui talked about this passage, she looked very interested.

Liuli glared at her, and drew a circle on the table with the hairpin.King Dingbei used to live in the main room, so there was no lady in charge in the study. Now that he has moved there, it doesn't matter to add Xiangying.What she was worried about was not this, but the behavior of King Dingbei. He knew that Mei Shi had leaked the news, but he didn't blame him or punish him. Is it implying that Meishi already knows, is this beating her?

This is not good.Even if King Dingbei figured it out in the end and was not relentless, wouldn't this give Mei time and opportunity to prepare?Liu Li patted the hairpin in her hand, raised her eyebrows and stood up.

Xiangying stood at the door of Mei's room, took several deep breaths before lifting the curtain and stepping in.

Mei Shi sat on the chair with a face as heavy as water, neither joy nor anger could be seen.

Xiangying lowered her eyes and said, "Ma'am."

Mrs. Mei snorted and said, "You are quite capable. You managed the prince's study in less than two days! What Madam Gu said is true. Knowing people, knowing faces but not knowing the heart, the most worrying thing is you these people!"

Xiangying kept silent, knowing that it would be useless to say anything.

She had been working in the study for two days, and she did not speak more than five words with King Dingbei. Yesterday he suddenly asked her to come and look at the house, and there was no room for her to refuse.Perhaps, only Mei could think that King Dingbei wanted to renew his old relationship with her, right?People who have fallen into the half-pit!She smiled wryly.If it was said that he didn't deal with Mei Shi immediately because he was concerned about the relationship between husband and wife and wanted to wait for Mei Shi to tell the truth, then by keeping her by his side, he was separating her from her. .

He is determined to deal with Mrs. Mei.If his guess is correct, he has already grasped the guess and guessed that the person who leaked is Mei Shi, and she is the most trusted confidant around Mei Shi, as long as she identifies her, then Mei Shi has no possibility of getting rid of the crime .She didn't remind her, but she just wanted to see if under the layer of smoke created by King Dingbei, would she also have a little sympathy for her dedication for so many years, so she would let her go, and tacitly allow her to stay by his side .

If she could accept all this calmly, then she would definitely kneel down and tell her the truth, and discuss countermeasures with her. As long as she could be sympathetic to her, she could still clean up the mess for her.

She was betting with herself, but Mei's words had already clearly told her that she lost the bet.The countermeasures she had thought of for her finally turned into a piece of nonsense that she had no chance to say.

"Why are not you talking?!"

When Mei slapped the table, the tea bowl on the table jumped up and made a thumping sound.

Xiangying couldn't help laughing, stared at the ground, and said, "I don't know what to say."

"What do you mean by laughing?!" Mei stood up, startled and angry. "You thought you could turn against me when you went to the study, didn't you? Let me tell you, even if you climbed onto the prince's bed, you would still be a slave! As long as I don't allow it, you will never even think about being his aunt for the rest of your life!"

Xiangying folded her hands under her stomach, her expression was calm, as if Mei was pointing her nose and scolding someone else instead of her.

There is nothing greater than death, for Mrs. Mei, she should give up.Her two sons are all married, and all of them are rich and noble daughters.Her daughter has also turned thirteen, and as the head of the Wangfu County, she will definitely be prosperous for a lifetime in the future.She will be 40 years old in two years, even if King Dingbei really wants to get close to her, or even if she can really bear his child, what kind of threat can this pose to the Mei family?Even if she gave birth to a concubine, what she can get is only a very small part of the family property of the palace, which is far from affecting the income of Qi Yunjing's brothers, but Mei still refuses to let her go, and even she is only kept by King Dingbei. It is not allowed to take care of trivial matters around me.

Thinking of this, she could only smile wryly.

"Go away!"

Seeing the quiet smile on her lips, Mei's heart became even more angry. She was no longer the former girl who was obedient to her, and now she dared to smile at her when she was furious!Isn't this a blatant provocation?Isn't this showing off? !If it wasn't for King Dingbei——if it wasn't for him, she really wanted to strangle her to death!
Xiangying walked out of the door, the corners of her lips raised again, and she left the main room, still going to Rongxitang's study.

After being scolded by Mrs. Mei, she felt a little more relaxed, and she didn't want to submit to her in front of her anymore. This little resistance made her feel very relieved.

Turning out of the courtyard of the main house, she went onto the veranda, when a person suddenly turned out from the front hallway, blocking her way.

She raised her eyes to look at this man, her face froze immediately, and then she stood still speechlessly.

"Where is Mammy going?" Yue Gui stood opposite and asked with a smile.

Xiangying said: "Where to go back, you don't care."

Yuegui spread her hands to stop her: "Mommy, go slowly, our concubine wants to say a few words with Mommy, please come and see me."

Xiangying paused.Liuli wants to find her?

Yuegui turned her body sideways and said, "Madam, please."

Xiangying looked in the direction of Chaoqingtang, her feet could not move as if they were stuck to the ground.Why did Liuli look for her?What did she ask her for?
Yuegui stood in front, with a look of persevering to the end.

She exhaled and raised her foot: "Please lead the way."

Yuegui led her to turn out of the hallway, but instead of opening the Chaoqing hall to the left, she went towards the direction of the west courtyard.But since it came, it was safe, and she didn't ask where it was going, followed her around a few more turns, and finally arrived at the gate of Tongqing Hall where Sanfang was located.Yuegui looked back at her and led her inside again.

Didn't Xiangying come back to Tongqingtang first and enter the door, she saw the two personal guards beside Liuli standing at the entrance of the main hall, so she knew that Liuli was in the main hall.After passing the west veranda, the girl in front of Mu stepped out of the threshold to take a look, then immediately turned and went inside again.

Yuegui led her all the way through the door before retreating to Liuli in the middle of the seat.

From the corner of her eyes, Xiangying saw Liuli in Chinese clothes sitting at the head, and Mu Shi sitting beside her, she didn't dare to look more, she bowed deeply to the top, and stood there.

When she raised her head again, everyone in the room was gone, only Liuli who was still sitting on the top was left, and even Yuegui had disappeared.

With so many people leaving at the same time, there was no sound. The people around Liuli had been trained by her to behave in such a manner.

She felt a little terrified in her heart, and lowered her head a little more.

Liuli stared at her for a while, and said: "I heard that you have been transferred to the prince's side, and I called you over to ask if there is anything to fill." After she finished speaking, she concentrated for a while, and then said: "You If you need anything, you can tell me, within a reasonable range, I can satisfy you."

Xiangying raised her corners slightly, and couldn't help a wry smile again, she nodded and said: "The servants are not short of anything, don't worry about the princess." Sure enough, when he did this, even this most powerful woman would be shocked. He thought he was going to renew his old relationship with her.Speaking of which, what is the relationship between women?No matter how strong or long it is, it can't withstand a man's disturbance.Is he going to push her to a dead end?
Liuli looked at her, and the corners of her lips moved unknowingly, "You have been in the long room for so many years, and you have done a lot of service to the master and wife. It's not too much to make a request at this time. Besides—" She sipped her tea and said: "You are the prince's man. Since I am in front of this family, I have to show the prince some face."

Xiangying was silent for a moment, and had no choice but to speak: "Since the concubine insists on letting the servants speak, then the servants do have something to ask."

Liuli raised her eyebrows and stared at her, waiting for her to continue.Her knees softened, she knelt down, and said calmly: "My servant begs the princess to give me a place to bury my bones. After my servant dies, I can rest in peace."

Even though Liuli had already prepared in her heart, she couldn't help but froze at this moment.She stared at her for a long time, and found that she was just a very ordinary middle-aged woman. She might have been glamorous when she was young, but unfortunately, that glamor has been shattered with the erosion of the years. There are a few strands of gray hair, but her face also has the tranquility accumulated over the years.

"Why?" she asked.This is not something that people around Mei Shi should say.She was originally King Dingbei's liaison girl. Now that King Dingbei knew of Mei's evil deeds, he regained his affection for her. Once Mei's collapse, her good days will come in the future. up.Liuli doesn't believe that she doesn't know what Mei Shi has done. She is begging her for a cemetery in this way, is she pretending to be hypocritical with her, or is there some inside story she doesn't know about?
