The First Daughter Reborn: The Snake Queen is not easy to mess with

Chapter 122: A Complete Defeat (4)

"Come on, bring another stove into the house. It must burn the best charcoal." Jiang went to the door and said to the servants.

Then he and Meng Yiwan entered the room, and after a while, the servants came in carrying the stove, put down the stove, and retreated knowingly, leaving Jiang Shi and Meng Yiwan in the room.

After everyone had left, Jiang asked anxiously: "What's the matter? How have the Empress and His Highness the Crown Prince treated you recently?"

Meng Yiwan lowered her eyes and smiled gently, her body was more radiant as a mother, she lowered her eyes to look at her flat belly and said softly: "The empress and the crown prince have taken great care of Wan'er during this time, even His Royal Highness often takes care of Wan'er." Stay in the mansion with Wan'er, this child, it's really time to come."

Thinking about it, Meng Yiwan was very happy.

After hearing this, Jiang's brows relaxed, and she patted Meng Yiwan's hand with a sigh of relief and said, "This is not a long-term solution. What you have to do is to grasp the heart of His Highness the Crown Prince, and not let his thoughts keep on. Putting it on Meng Yizhen, Erniang heard that after Meng Yizhen's little bastard went to jail, the crown prince severely offended the emperor because of his plea."

Mentioning this, Jiang's complexion was a little displeased. After all, he is her daughter's husband, and now it is not a joke to offend the emperor because of another woman's begging for mercy.

Meng Yiwan knew about this matter. After all, the prince's mood was very unstable in those few days, because he was forbidden to enter the palace by the emperor's order, so Li Qichuan didn't see anyone in the study during that time. I wanted to make some snacks and send them over, but I was almost pushed to the ground by him. Now that I think about it, it is extremely thrilling.

Thinking of this, Meng Yiwan nodded and said: "Now that I know Er Niang, my daughter will definitely work hard to win back the heart of His Highness the Crown Prince."

"Well, Er Niang believes in the charm of our Wan'er." Jiang smiled lovingly.

Speaking of this, Meng Yiwan suddenly remembered the last time she went to Meng Yizhen's place. Because of this incident, she has been very uneasy recently, so she hesitated and frowned and said to Jiang Shi: "Emiang, Wan'er went to visit some time ago. I went to Meng Yizhen's place."

One sentence froze the expression on Jiang's face, and instantly returned to normal, but he was not as happy as before, and the smile on his face faded a lot, and he subconsciously asked with a hint of guard: "You go find What did she do? Did she say anything to you?"

Meng Yiwan bit her lip, and said aggrievedly: "After all, she used to have such a good relationship with the prince, so I can't see her being so arrogant these days, so I went over and said a few words, who knows." Meng Yiwan paused, Eye sockets were slightly red and said immediately: "Who knew that she threatened me directly, as if she wanted to harm my child!"

This is why Meng Yiwan is afraid. Once the child is lost, all her current possessions will disappear. Originally, she disdained Meng Yizhen's current status, but after having a child, she began to become cautious. , had to guard against anyone.

After listening to Meng Yiwan's words, Mrs. Jiang didn't show any expression, she just frowned slightly, and reprimanded: "You can't change your temper anywhere! Are you still the same as in the palace now? In the Meng family, there is a mother to give You support yourself, but in the imperial family, you have to rely on yourself for everything, what you do is nothing more than a show for others, what's the use?"

"I originally wanted to make that bitch Meng Yizhen jealous." Meng Yiwan continued with some grievances, tears streaming down her face.

Jiang looked at her stupid daughter, sighed and said, "Okay, Er Niang just said a few words to you and cried. Don't worry, Meng Yi is just trying to scare you." , You are the heir of His Highness the Crown Prince, is she going to get rid of it? Even if there are 1 filial princes and the emperor will protect her..." Jiang's voice dropped as he spoke. "The Qi family will not let Meng Yizhen go easily."

Hearing Jiang Shi's words, Meng Yiwan looked at Jiang Shi with doubtful sobs and tearful eyes, and said, "Is what you said so far true?"

Mentioning this, Jiang's pride became more and more proud, she hooked her lips and said, "In terms of love, the prince is not as good as the eighth prince, and in terms of strength, he is not as good as the prince of filial piety, so why is it that Li Qichuan is the last prince? Have you ever thought about this question?"

Meng Yiwan shook her head.

Jiang immediately said: "Of course it's because the crown prince's mother is not only the current queen, but behind the queen is the entire Qi family, Wan'er, do you know the identity of the young master Qi who just came back recently? "

Meng Yiwan tried hard to recall such a person, but found that she had almost no memory of this person. She couldn't help but frowned and asked in doubt: "Isn't there only one daughter in the Qi family, Qi Meizhen? When will a young master Qi come out?"

After finishing speaking, Meng Yiwan was lightly tapped on the head by Jiang, and blamed: "You have never even heard of Qi Gu, the eldest son of Uncle Qi Guo, how can you gain a foothold in the Qi family in the future? Listen well, Qi Gu Behind the man, there seems to be another person supporting him, this person Er Niang has only vaguely heard of, is a famous general family in the south of the Yangtze River, whose warlord power is enough to compete with all the imperial guards!"

After hearing this, Meng Yiwan was shocked and said: "Then isn't he rebelling? Ugh!"

Before Meng Yiwan finished speaking, Jiang covered her mouth and said nervously: "Don't talk nonsense! If you hear it, it's a death sentence!" Meng Yiwan's mouth loosened.

Afterwards, Jiang lowered his voice and continued: "But when it comes to this, you should understand that if the emperor wants to abolish the prince in the future, it will be a matter of time, so don't offend anyone in the Qi family. ?” Some things, even if they don’t say anything, Jiang knows very well in his heart, although he knows that this is a dangerous road, but this is the only road that is the safest.

Meng Yiwan frowned slightly when she heard Jiang Shi's words and asked in doubt: "Since she will rebel, why did Er Niang ask Wan'er to curry favor with such a person?"

Hearing what Meng Yiwan said, Mrs. Jiang laughed and said: "Silly boy, the more you do this, the more you have to establish a good relationship with him, because this is related to the guarantee of your future succession, as long as the queen and prince's backing are settled , then naturally some problems will be solved.”

After Jiang's words were finished, Meng Yiwan thought about it for a moment, and then she suddenly realized and said in surprise: "What Er Niang means is that the Qi family is now the guarantee for His Royal Highness to inherit the throne in the future. Please, then they will not only be able to protect His Highness the Crown Prince, but also if His Highness the Crown Prince and the Empress dislike Wan'er, they will also help me, right Niang?"

Meng Yiwan looked at Jiang expectantly, and Jiang smiled slightly when she heard Meng Yiwan's words: "It's the same reason."

Hearing Jiang Shi's words, Meng Yiwan was ecstatic and nodded in response.

Then she remembered something, and Meng Yiwan gloated and whispered in Jiang's ear: "Emiang, do you know? Qi Meizhen was defiled by a guard, just at the time when Prince Xiao was cleaning the dust." Every time Meng Yiwan thinks of this matter, she will She feels that the world has eyes, since Qi Meizhen framed her at the flower festival last time, she has held a grudge against Qi Meizhen, flattering her on the surface, but dismissing her secretly.

If it weren't for her status as the young lady of the Qi family, who would go along with her.

Mrs. Jiang had never heard of this matter, and after hearing it, she repeated in a little surprise: "You said that the young lady of the Qi family, Qi Meizhen, was defiled by a guard?"

Meng Yiwan responded, and said sarcastically: "Although the emperor ordered that no one should speak out about this matter, any high-ranking official doesn't know about it now, and Qi Meizhen's marriage will be difficult to say in the future. What are you being arrogant about!"

She heard Li Qichuan inadvertently mentioned this matter when he was discussing with other people in the study room. When she heard it, even she herself was very surprised.

Mrs. Jiang felt a little relieved when Qi Meizhen encountered this incident, and told Meng Yiwan, "Although that is the case, you still need to do a good job on the surface. After two days, you will take some Tonic, go to the Qi mansion to visit, and meet the young master of the Qi family by the way, to establish a good relationship."

Meng Yiwan nodded in agreement.

Qi Mansion study.

Qi Sheng stood in front of the window, his face was serious behind his hands, his eyes kept looking out of the window, and he was not in a good mood.

The queen stood behind him, with a little bit of embarrassment, hiding her emotions, occasionally revealing a touch of boredom.

"Brother, I can understand your current mood, but this incident has already happened. Even if you blame Meizhen, it won't help. Don't be angry with Meizhen anymore, okay?" The queen said earnestly with a sigh .

Hearing the expression on the back, Qi Sheng didn't feel any relief. He snorted coldly and said bitterly: "Is it useful to be angry with her? Will our Qi family's reputation be restored by being angry with her? This useless guy! Make trouble for me!" Thinking of his own daughter, Qi Sheng felt angry, it was fine to make small troubles in the past, but now such embarrassing things happened.

The queen took a step forward, came to Qi Sheng's side, and persuaded: "Aren't you just Meizhen as a daughter? Since this matter has already happened, let her go. As long as I am here for a day, I will definitely I won't let Meizhen suffer, brother, don't worry." No matter how you say the instigator of this matter is yourself, even if the queen doesn't think about her relationship with Qi Meizhen's aunt and nephew, she must think about this reason.

After hearing this, Qi Sheng took a deep breath, turned his head to look at the queen, and said seriously: "About King Xiao's cleansing banquet, Meizhen said you asked her to tell me, Gu'er told me she did it for Prince Xiao, tell the truth, Meizhen suddenly thought of this matter, did you give her an idea?"
