Chapter 196 I Have Seen the Eighth Prince
As soon as this sentence came out, several people present were shocked.

That's right, if Shen Xinmeng wasn't the daughter of Zhen Guo's great general Shen Ji, would the Seventh Prince Xiao Yi be so submissive and beg her to marry him?
Queen Lin at the top squinted her phoenix eyes, realizing that today's matter is no longer a simple matter of your love and my unwillingness.

At this moment, Concubine Meng secretly glanced at Empress Lin. Seeing this, she knew something was wrong, and the matter was not done well, which aroused Empress Lin's vigilance.

It's really not worth stealing a chicken.

"I..." Xiao Yi still wanted to explain, but Jian Xinmeng's lips curled up slightly, with a sarcasm smile, she stopped talking helplessly, knowing that no matter how she explained today, she would not believe it.

At first, he really wanted to marry her to obtain the military power in Shen Ji's hands, but now, he really fell in love with her.

He didn't lie, he really wanted to give her happiness, and hoped that one day in the future, she would stand side by side with him at the highest place, looking at the majestic mountains and rivers of Dashang.

so fun!Concubine Lan has no heirs, so she doesn't understand the meaning of Xinmeng's words, but judging from the situation, she knows that the so-called bestowal of marriage must be in vain.

"His Royal Highness is here!"

Following the resounding announcement from the palace staff, Prince Xiao Qian strode in. Seeing the Seventh Prince Xiao Yi and Xin Meng kneeling on the ground, he couldn't help frowning and asked, "What's going on?"

"You two, get up." Queen Lin spoke.If she knelt down again, she would not agree to the marriage offer.

The Seventh Prince hurriedly helped Xinmeng get up, and before she could stand still, Xinmeng quickly dodged to the side, as if the Seventh Prince was a beast that would devour people.

Xiao Yi's eyes dimmed, and his face became even uglier.

Xinmeng only wanted to stay away from Xiao Yi, and didn't want Prince Xiao Qian to just pass by and bump into him.

"Be careful!" Xiao Qian helped her stand firmly with sharp eyes and quick hands.

"Thank you, Your Highness, Your Highness! My daughter has met His Highness, Your Highness! Your Highness is a thousand years old!" After saluting, Xin Meng lowered her eyes and stepped aside.

Xiao Qian stepped forward to pay respects to Empress Lin.He is the crown prince, so naturally he doesn't have to salute Concubine Meng Gui and Concubine Lan, but they have to salute him.

After the seventh prince Xiao Yi also saluted the prince respectfully, Empress Lin asked the palace staff to bring the prince a brocade stool, which was placed next to her seat.

After the prince Xiao Qian sat down, he didn't ask about the matter just now, but said to Xin Meng who deliberately hid in the distance: "Miss Shen, have you seen the eighth prince these two days?"

With a slight shock, Xin Meng looked up at Xiao Qian in surprise.

what does he mean?In front of the empress, imperial concubine, concubine Lan and the seventh prince, asking her about the whereabouts of the eighth prince Xiao Lang, was to tell everyone that her relationship with Xiao Lang was not ordinary?
Sure enough, his question was like throwing a stone weighing a hundred catties on the calm water, stirring up thousands of waves.

Except for Xiao Qian who was so calm that no expression could be seen on his face, everyone present had different expressions.Empress Lin was puzzled, Concubine Meng was jealous, Concubine Lan was curious, and Xiao Yi's face was as sinking as water.

But Xinmeng couldn't help but answer, thought for a while, stepped forward and respectfully said: "Since Shenshui Palace returned to the city and parted at the city gate, my daughter has never seen the Eighth Prince."

It's obviously a lie, but it's as if it's true.

But the assassination the night before, the crown prince didn't say anything, neither did Xinmeng, and no one else knew about it.

Xinmeng grasped this point, she refused to admit that she had seen the Eighth Prince Xiao Lang after returning from Shenshui Palace, unless Xiao Qian revealed the assassination himself, how could she get her?
