Chapter 427 Two Crimes
"My daughter is a scorpion-hearted woman, but the imperial concubine agreed to the marriage. I'm afraid it's not because the Seventh Prince likes my daughter so much, but because my daughter has a 'good' father, right?" Xin Meng said slowly, While carefully observing Concubine Meng Gui's expression.

Sure enough, Meng Guifei's eyes flashed a trace of nervousness that someone knew her secret.But she quickly covered up the strange look, squinted her eyes, and said fiercely: "Your 'good' father almost killed my Yi'er!"

The next moment, she patted the armrest of the chair: "In the final analysis, Yi'er was killed by you! You stabbed Yi'er, which is a crime. In order to please you, Yi'er went to the border to reward the three armies, and sacrificed his life to save your father. Losing one's life at one point is the second crime. Shen Xinmeng, do you plead guilty?"

"My daughter pleads not guilty." No need to think about it at all, Xin Meng shook her head without hesitation, denying the crime.

"You!" Concubine Meng was furious, stood up from the chair, pointed at Xinmeng with her index finger coated with Kodan, her face was bulging with veins, her expression was ferocious, as if she wanted to swallow Xinmeng in one gulp.

"The imperial concubine calm down, it's better to sit down and talk." Xinmeng swept around, walked to the side and brought a brocade stool over, sat down, and faced Concubine Meng who had slumped back into the chair.

Pretending to be sad first, sighing lightly, Xinmeng continued: "The noble ladies in Beijing are most concerned about their own reputation, and the ministers are no exception. I believe the same is true when the imperial concubine is in the boudoir."

Concubine Meng stared at Xinmeng vigilantly, feeling a little uneasy in her heart: "What exactly are you trying to say?"

"The courtier is defending herself. Didn't the imperial concubine point out the two crimes of the courtier's daughter?" Xinmeng said calmly, and when Concubine Meng Guifei was about to go into a rage, she smiled slightly and at the same time swept her lightly with her light eyes. With a quick glance, "Don't worry, imperial concubine, please listen to the minister's daughter first."

Strange to say, Xinmeng's smile, coupled with a comforting look, actually allowed Concubine Meng to temporarily suppress her anger.She sat on a chair, clasped her hands on her lap, waiting to hear what Xinmeng would explain to her.

Quickly glanced at Concubine Meng's hand, Xinmeng knew that Concubine Meng was trying to restrain her anger, but she might explode at any time.

Just now, if Concubine Meng Gui didn't do it herself, but ordered someone to take her down and push her out to punish her as soon as she entered the palace, she would have to obey obediently.

Probably Concubine Meng wanted to teach her a lesson, but she was worried that there would be too many people talking about her, so she passed on some secrets, so she sent the outsiders away early in the morning, leaving only two cronies—Nurse Sun and Aunt Cui.This gave her an opportunity to take advantage of this opportunity to compete with Concubine Meng alone.

"The imperial concubine only knows that the minister's daughter stabbed the Seventh Prince, but do you know why the minister's daughter stabbed the Seventh Prince?" Xin dreamed that Concubine Meng moved her lips, not giving Concubine Meng a chance to speak, and quickly uncovered the truth. The answer came to an end, "That's because the Seventh Prince belittled his courtiers in broad daylight, and the courtiers lost their minds in shame and anger, and took a stab at the Seventh Prince."

Concubine Meng opened her eyes wide in surprise, obviously she didn't know about this incident at all.She stayed there for a moment, then said, "Yi'er was in love for a while, that's why..." Her eyes suddenly became sharper, "That's right, that's it! It was you who stabbed Yi'er without knowing what to do. "

As the mother and concubine of the Seventh Prince, Meng Guifei's heart has always been partial to her son, and she quickly found such a reason to protect the Seventh Prince.

Xinmeng was not surprised by this.
