A happy event in a fertile field: the black-bellied husband is as beautiful as a flower

Chapter 970 Guest Arrivals
At the same time, Donggong also received the news.

Meng Mei is now the most favored concubine of the crown prince in the Eastern Palace, and there are a group of servants around to serve them.

As soon as something happened, a slave immediately told her the news outside the palace to please her, and said as if offering a treasure: "The gossip I heard from the slave, this time the Xie family has completely fallen into the hands of King Wu of Yin. I heard that the Xie family The evidence of the crime was all submitted to Dali Temple by King Wu of Yin after he left for the expedition."

Meng Mei couldn't tell what was on her face.

King Yin Wu has been on the expedition for several months, and it is only now that the matter is spread out?
Is Meng Yan really crazy?
She doesn't believe it.

If the Xie family collapsed, it would not be a good thing for her.She obviously just hitched up with Xie's family and accepted Xie Hongbo as a foster relative, but in the blink of an eye, Xie Hongbo actually died of fear of crime?
Back then, when she recognized her righteous relatives, she had made a contract. It didn't matter if Xie Hongbo died, but if those things were found out, not only would she be implicated, but even Yin Rong would be implicated!

Meng Mei couldn't help clenching her fingers tightly.

How hateful!

The natal family she had worked so hard to find was to be relied on, but it was easily destroyed by Meng Yan's family!She even suspected that this must have been planned by her, Meng Yan, behind the scenes!

It's just that now she has no time to pursue those things, the most urgent thing is to get rid of the relationship with Xie's family.

Meng Mei thought of Yin Rong, so she immediately went to find Yin Rong.

At the same time, Yin Rong was also looking for her, Meng Mei ran into the servant Yin Rong sent to pass her on the way.Obviously all worried about going to one place.

Now he has just become the crown prince, if the emperor finds out that he is secretly colluding with the Xie family, then is he still the crown prince?
When Meng Mei arrived at Yin Rong's hall, there was no one else in the hall, and Yin Rongzheng was pacing back and forth in disbelief.

He turned his head and saw Meng Mei, and said with some annoyance: "I shouldn't have listened to you back then, and went to have a relationship with that Xie family. Now that the Xie family is in great trouble, if we are involved, what do you think?"

Meng Mei said: "Your Highness, don't panic, there is still room for redemption."

Yin Rong asked eagerly, "How can I redeem it?"

On the way here, Meng Mei racked her brains to find a way to redeem it. At this moment, she said: "Right now, Dali Temple has only confiscated all the people of Xie's family, and the things in Xie's family have not been confiscated yet. As long as His Highness asks the emperor for an order, he will take the initiative to take responsibility for it." In this matter, the emperor should give this opportunity to His Highness to practice."

Yin Rong calmed down slowly, and said, "What if Father doesn't agree?"

Meng Mei said: "Then we have to start with the person who ransacked the house."

Yin Rong nodded, and then strode out, "I'm going to ask my father for orders."

In fact, although the case of Xie's family was handed over to Dali Temple, the emperor was still considering it. This was an opportunity to show imperial prestige to all the officials in the court, and it should be possible for members of the royal family to perform.

Just at this time, the prince came.

This is very much the emperor's heart.

It is perfect for the prince to supervise the case.

The emperor agreed without thinking too much.

Then Yin Rong was in charge of taking people to Xie's house to check everything.

Everything that was copied, even every book and piece of paper, had to be read by Yin Rong and recorded.

So he wanted to intercept the next humble contract halfway, no problem.

It was night, the housekeeper came to the main courtyard and said: "Princess, someone wants to see you."

If it was a normal visit, who would come in the dead of night?And if the people who come here are ordinary people, why does the housekeeper need to come to report in person.

Meng Yan said: "Please sit in the living room for a while. When she is old, serve her a pot of ginseng tea, otherwise the long night will be difficult."

The butler paused, he didn't say who it was, it seemed that the princess already knew it.The butler didn't say much, he answered "Yes", turned around and went to prepare.

When Meng Yan went to the front hall for receiving guests, the hall was brightly lit.

She walked up the stairs unhurriedly and walked into the hall.

There was indeed a white-haired old woman in a black cloak, sitting on a seat and waiting.Not who the Queen Mother is.

They are familiar faces to each other, and there is no need to go around.

The queen mother saw Meng Yan coming in plain clothes, her face was thin but far from the weirdly coquettish make-up that she had on the day of the palace banquet, she couldn't help but coldly said: "You really are not crazy."

Meng Yan said: "The queen mother came to me late at night, it seems that she is crazy."

The Empress Dowager said: "King Yin Wu is far away at the border, and you really handed over those evidences. My Xie family is no longer an enemy of you. It was originally agreed that during King Yin Wu's expedition, I will do my best to protect you and escort you out of the capital safely. , is this how you repay Aijia?"

Anger and hatred rolled in his chest, but he was old after all, and these words lost their deterrent meaning, leaving only a sense of powerlessness.

Meng Yan said: "How King Yin Wu agreed with you is his business, and now I choose what to do is my business." Her expression became cold, and the cold eyes were like ghosts, "Why, I can't stand it. It's just started, don't worry, I will let you watch, your Xie family is full of old and young, and everyone's heads fall to the ground one by one."

The Queen Mother took a deep breath.

Meng Yan walked towards her step by step, and said: "Let you also taste what it feels like to die in front of your eyes."

The Empress Dowager leaned on the handle of the chair, gritted her teeth, and said, "Are you taking revenge on Aijia? Didn't King Wu of Yin tell you that someone else killed your son? Your daughter was the only one who went to Aijia, and Aijia was also safe. She sent her out of the palace; if he didn't believe that the Ai family never did anything to your child, he would have done so long ago!"

Meng Yan said, "Then tell me, who did it?"

The Empress Dowager said: "The Ai family doesn't know who it is, but the Ai family can be sure that this person just wants to deliberately trap the Ai family to sow discord! What you are doing now is exactly what he wants!"

Meng Yan listened to her patiently, and then said: "The agreement between you and King Wu of Yin is so confidential, why would a third person know? Why is he able to do it before yours?" Her eyes were slightly red , "Even if my son didn't die by your hands, it was because of your negligence. The so-called sowing dissension, isn't it also because of your thanking the family? Tell me, what does it have to do with my son?"

She bent down, put her hands on the chair handle of the Queen Mother, leaned over and stared at the Queen Mother, suddenly her expression became sharp, and she roared like a female animal: "Say, what are you doing with Ah Lin!"

The empress dowager's old body leaned back against the back of the chair as hard as she could, obviously frightened.

Meng Yan was moody and quickly calmed down again. With a sneer on the corner of her mouth, she said softly: "Don't worry, the queen mother, one by one, no one will be able to escape in the end. You might as well let the queen mother know that even if there is no matter about Ah Lin, today's I'll do the same next time."

Meng Yan said in a soft voice: "As you agreed, King Wu of Yin will not return to the court during this expedition. Do you think I need your help to leave Beijing safely? As long as the news of his death in battle comes back, I will naturally It's useless, I just leave to see how I feel. So it's useless for me to keep the Xie family, if we don't get rid of it in time, is it possible to wait for the queen mother to come back to her senses and drive us all to death?"
