Playful Queen

Chapter 5

Seeing the two wives leave, Xi'er breathed a sigh of relief, but she was still lingering in her heart in shock and fear. Since the young lady woke up, she seemed to be a different person. She had hurt countless maids and servants before. , but today...

But think about it, the second wife probably won't let it go, Xi'er thought, stepped forward, wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Meng Li.

"I'm so sleepy, what's the matter when I wake up." Meng Li turned around, and just as she was about to enter the house, she saw a figure standing under a tree not far away, with those black eyes staring at him coldly. Here, the boy looks twelve or thirteen years old, with a straight back, sword eyebrows and star eyes, a straight nose, sharp eyes, and a dark purple brocade suit on his body, handsome and cold, who is this boy?Mengli stopped, looked at him, and wanted to call him, but he turned around coldly and left dismissively, but Mengli could see those hateful eyes...

The gate is more than ten feet high, with dozens of brass nails inlaid on it, and the red and gold plaque with the word "Shen's House" written on it.

The magnificent mansion occupies almost half of Dongmen Street. The courtyards are dotted with dots, yellow and green glazed tiles, nine-colored screen walls, beautiful and elegant, and the pavilions are magnificent. Interlaced, winding paths lead to seclusion, flower halls and wing rooms are layered and looming, a small bridge on the left, a corridor on the right, and a pond in the front. This is the Prime Minister's Mansion, a magnificent mansion indeed.

As night falls, the house is brightly lit,

Mengli had just woken up from her sleep when Xi'er dragged her towards the front hall, "Miss, hurry up, Mrs. and Mrs. are already in the dining room." Seeing Xi'er's anxious appearance, she was using her brain too much, Just overslept.

"Aren't I leaving now?" Meng Li frowned, eating a meal is still so strenuous, she walked out of Liuliyuan where she lived, and she walked for 5 minutes, but she still hasn't arrived.

At this moment, the sound of slapping the table came from the imposing dining room, and Shen Yanlang's face was as dark as Zhong Kui.

"Master, you want to make the decision for me. Mengli beat me like this with a whip. How can I see people?" Yin Hongxiang cried pitifully with tears in her eyes, and touched her from time to time. The whip marks soaked with blood, complained bitterly.

"Liu Quan, hurry up and ask the doctor to show the second lady!" Shen Yanlang looked at Hongxiang's injury, and he knew that Mengli's girl was not so simple, she just woke up and beat the second lady, what should I say Yin Hongxiang is also an elder, and she dared to make a move, "Li'er, this girl, is getting more and more outrageous!"

"Master, I know you love Mengli, but if you continue to indulge like this, you can't do it." Yin Hongxiang sniffed, her face was full of grievances, and looked at the eldest lady, "Eldest sister, you really need to discipline Li'er Well, not to mention the commotion that was all over the city before, but now that I woke up..."

"Okay, okay, don't talk about it." Shen Yanlang interrupted Hong Xiang, and glanced at his wife, there was no sense of blame in his eyes, more guilt.

The eldest lady who was sitting on the side never spoke, her brows were furrowed. How could this Lier be messing around? Although Yin Hongxiang is the second lady, her natal background cannot be ignored. The world, and because of the support of the Yin family, who knows, the daughter of the Yin family actually fell in love with Yan Lang, and threatened that even if she was small, she would follow Yan Lang. Although Yan Xuegui was the princess, but in terms of strength, The two are considered to be on equal footing... Thinking about it, a fiery red appeared at the door.

Mengli had been standing at the door for a while, she could see the situation in the room clearly, the voice made her goosebumps, and when she saw her mother saw her, she smiled faintly , walked into the dining room disapprovingly, cleared his throat, "Father, mother, second mother."

Seeing Mengli entering the room, Shen Yanlang slapped the table, and asked in a deep voice: "Li'er, tell me, did you beat Erniang today?"

Hurt Er Niang?Today she was obviously just shaking off her headdress with a whip to frighten her. It didn't take long before such vivid scars appeared, but how could Meng Li destroy her own masterpiece of hurting herself?
Mengli looked around, and the only witness today who saw whether she beat Erniang was Sanniang, so there was no way to argue?
After being silent for a while, Mengli looked at the prime minister's father and replied neither humble nor overbearing: "Yes, it was my daughter who beat her."

Erniang was surprised immediately, but she recovered quickly, and said to the master coquettishly, "Master, did you hear that, woo woo..."

Upon hearing this, the eldest lady stood up and advised, "Li'er, quickly apologize to your second mother."

Shen Yanlang's face was even more ugly, staring at his daughter.

I saw that Meng Li had no fear on her face. With her previous bad reputation, no one would believe her, so she just admitted it.

He glanced at Erniang coldly, and said, "If I had known that I would be charged with a crime, I should have beaten him harder during the day."

"You..." Shen Yanlang's face was livid with anger, and he said in a deep voice, "Bring out the family law!"

"Master, Li'er has just woken up, so let me take her place." Da Furen stopped her and said.

"A loving mother often loses daughters, Xue'er, get out of the way."

"My lord, beat your servants."

"Okay, you don't need to intercede for me." Mengli said lightly, then turned to the prime minister's father and said, "Father, you can hit me wherever you want, as long as you don't hit your face." Her father, the prime minister, was so angry that he couldn't breathe.

"Put out your hand!"

A pair of white hands stretched out without hesitation, and Meng Li had a posture of "the wind is blowing, the water is cold, and the strong man will not pay back when he is gone".

Erniang looked smug as she watched the ruler fall fiercely on Mengli's hand. She would always find a way to cure this dead girl. Just when she thought this dead girl was about to be severely beaten by the master, she walked out the door. Those who come in break the silence...

"Master, it was the Queen Mother who sent Eunuch Fu to deliver a message."

Then, a father-in-law in eunuch uniform walked in, and greeted in a high-pitched voice: "Our family greets Prime Minister Shen, the two ladies."

"I don't know what the queen mother asked Eunuch Fu to bring?" The prime minister stepped forward and asked.

"The Empress Dowager heard that the daughter was awakened, and specially asked our family to send a thousand-year-old ginseng."

"Li'er, why don't you come to thank me soon?"

"Li'er, thank you Queen Mother for the reward." She took the beautiful box with her red and swollen hand and thanked her.

"Miss Shen, the queen mother said that a banquet will be held for all officials in three days. In order to show the harmony inside and outside the court, I hope that the lady and the general will reconcile before then." Eunuch Fu frowned, "Miss, the queen mother Because of the affairs of your two families, I'm so anxious that I don't know what to eat..."
