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

Chapter 71
"Come here! Immediately put the sinful daughter Meng Yizhen into prison!" The queen came back at some point, and ordered righteously. After speaking, four long swords wrapped around Meng Yizhen's white and tender neck tightly.

Meng Yizhen looked at the proud queen flashing across his face, Dang even understood everything, knowing that today she became a thorn in the side.

"Prince Xiao is here!"

Following the eunuch's announcement, Li Xiaochuan came over with several guards. Li Xiaochuan glanced at Meng Yizhen, who was held around his neck by several knives, turned to look at the queen and said with a half-smile: "The empress is acting again." Which one will come out?"

"Prince Xiao doesn't know, this Miss Meng actually pushed Miss Lou into the water! This move is really abominable!" An official wanted to explain, but Li Xiaochuan gave the other party a cold look after hearing this. .

"Some people seem to be too wordy today, cut off their tongue!" Li Xiaochuan said slowly, and then heard a cry of pain, the man lay down on the ground with his face covered in blood.

Then Li Xiaochuan walked straight in the direction of Meng Yizhen, Meng Yizhen pursed his lips, watching the other person approaching him step by step, until there was only the distance between the two of the guards.

"Surprised you."

Li Xiaochuan spoke in a calm tone, but Meng Yizhen looked at Li Xiaochuan without saying a word. .

Immediately afterwards, the four guards holding Meng Yizhen's neck were immediately dismembered by five horses, and the whole lake was stained with blood.

The Hongmen Banquet carefully planned by the queen for Meng Yizhen started to become a little tricky because of the unexpected appearance of Li Xiaochuan who should have been blocked.

"I know you like Yizhen, but many people saw her pushing Lou Anqiao into the water with their own eyes. Prince Xiao's move. I'm afraid it's too much."

Li Xiaochuan laughed after hearing this, and said coldly: "Based on the empress's dream, it doesn't seem too much to talk about a little panic." Li Xiaochuan looked at the queen with a strange expression.

The empress hates Li Xiaochuan so much that her teeth itch, but she still has to act like a good wife and mother on her face, which is really tiring.

"Prince Xiao is really joking. No matter what I say, I am a queen of a country. How could I frame them, ladies of the official family? What Prince Xiao said sounds a little too much."

"Cough cough."

But at this moment, Lou Anqiao who was drowning suddenly woke up, coughed a few times, then struggled to get up from the ground, walked to the queen with some unsteadiness, knelt down weakly and said: "Your servant can To testify for Miss Meng, it was not the little girl whom Miss Meng pushed just now, but someone who plotted against the minister's daughter!"

Lou Anqiao's words completely slapped the queen in the face. Although the queen felt ugly in her heart, she hurriedly walked up to Lou Anqiao, helped her up from the ground, and said worriedly: "Finally woke up, don't want to leave any root cause, go back and change clothes to keep warm."

Lou Anqiao first thanked the empress, and then repeated the matter worryingly.

"This matter really has nothing to do with Ms. Meng. I hope the Queen will not blame Ms. Meng."

Meng Yizhen didn't expect that Lou Anqiao would help him like this, and he was somewhat grateful in his heart.

"Naturally, An Qiao can rest assured."

After receiving the queen's guarantee, Lou Anqiao went back to change clothes with the maid in peace of mind. Now that Lou Anqiao had agreed, the queen could no longer find excuses to frame Meng Yizhen, so she said directly: "Thanks to the timely arrival of the prince Xiao , I didn’t punish the wrong person, otherwise I’m afraid I won’t be able to feel at ease for the rest of my life.”

Others don't understand the queen's thoughts, but Meng Yizhen and Li Xiaochuan do. Meng Yizhen replied with a polite smile, "The empress is serious. As the saying goes, those who clean themselves up, even if Sister Anqiao doesn't defend her sister, she will I believe that the empress will definitely not wrong people, right the empress?"

As soon as this sentence came out, the queen really knew that Meng Yi was really good.

"of course."

"Empress Empress, Prince Xiao, our prime minister invites you all to gather in the hall, the time is coming soon."

At this moment, a maid came over slowly, blessed everyone respectfully, and said.

This subtle change hidden in the air was finally dissipated because Prime Minister Zuo sent someone over in a timely manner, and they changed the topic and walked to the hall of the palace where the banquet was held.

Meng Yizhen and Li Xiaochuan followed the others, walking side by side, Meng Yizhen did not say a word to Li Xiaochuan on the way, Li Xiaochuan even looked at Meng Yizhen at first, seeing that she was not thinking about him, so he didn't bother to talk to Meng Yizhen. spoke.

After a while, everyone came to the hall of Prime Minister Zuo's mansion, Prime Minister Zuo saw them coming, rushed up to meet them, bowed to the queen and Li Xiaochuan and said: "I pay homage to the empress, filial piety prince!"

"You don't need to be too polite." The queen raised her hand slightly and said.

"Empress Empress, please take a seat, please take a seat here, Prince Xiao please." Prime Minister Zuo seated towards the two of them as if inviting, the Queen gave a grace and sat on the seat with Prime Minister Zuo, followed by Li Xiaochuan, Meng Yizhen frowned Everyone sat down, thinking about going to the back seat, how could they have expected that today Li Xiaochuan really planned to come with her in the open.

"Miss Meng, there is still room next to the king, why don't you come and sit down?"

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the people in the hall immediately focused on Meng Yizhen. Meng Yizhen paused with his back to Li Xiaochuan's figure, then turned around very calmly, looked at Li Xiaochuan calmly and said: "The status of a minister For the inconvenience, please forgive me, Lord Xiao."

After hearing this, Li Xiaochuan didn't show any sign of wanting to give in. Instead, he picked up the quilt on the table and gently tapped on the back, saying meaningfully: "This king said that convenience is convenience, so do you need other reasons?"

As soon as these words were said, people in the hall had different thoughts, and it was only natural for the emperor to regard him as a thorn in his side. After all, as a prince, he not only controlled the lifeblood of the entire court, but was also born so arrogant. If they I will also feel precarious for my country and society.

After hearing this, Meng Yizhen didn't refute a word, pursed his lips and looked at Li Xiaochuan, walked slowly towards his seat, and then sat beside her.

Such an episode made Meng Yiwan, who also went out together, but was sitting in the middle back seat very jealous, she held the dress tightly in her hand, and looked at Meng Yizhen with envious eyes.

"My lord, is he planning to usurp the throne this time?" Meng Yizhen was seated very close to Li Xiaochuan, Meng Yizhen remained unmoved, using a teacup to cover up his thin lips, and said calmly.

Li Xiaochuan smiled, and said indifferently: "Even if this king does not try to usurp the throne, the Lord of the Country will not let this king get away with it."

Meng Yizhen sneered. "You can see clearly."

Having said that, Meng Yizhen had a different view of Li Xiaochuan. Compared with Prince Li Qichuan's gentle personality, although Li Xiaochuan's character was a bit tougher, he was a man who could rule tens of thousands of generals with his own ability. Boss, although he always provokes her again and again, there is no doubt that Meng Yi really admires Li Xiaochuan from the bottom of his heart.

"His Royal Highness, Miss Lou is here!"

At this moment, the voice of reporting came from outside the door, and a group of people looked towards the door along the line of sight, only to see a blue and a red figure slowly walking in from the door, and then they both saluted.

"After paying homage to my mother, I met Prime Minister Zuo."

"The courtier's daughter pays homage to the empress, and sees her father."

Lou Anqiao's body is very tough because of his martial arts training. Although he fell into the water not long ago, he has recovered his dazzling appearance at the beginning. Lou Anqiao is a real beauty. There is a trace of heroism in every frown and smile, which is very attractive.

"An Qiao, come here and let Ben Gong take a look." The empress somewhat harbored a grudge against the prime minister Zuo's concubine, after all, it was because of her that Lou Anqiao did this, pretending to be false on the surface Love up.

"His Royal Highness, please take your seat." Lou Jing got up and invited.

Li Qichuan looked around for a week, but his eyes were fixed on the side of Meng Yizhen. Without thinking, he walked over and sat on the right side of Meng Yizhen. The sudden situation formed by these three people made the atmosphere in the hall freeze instantly. .

When Meng Yiwan saw the prince appearing, she thought that the prince would take a look at her anyway. After all, when she was in the garden just now, she still talked to the prince like this. It's only been a while. The prince will definitely not forget her. Who knows that Li Qichuan As soon as he came over, he skipped over her straight away, locked his eyes on Meng Yizhen, and sat down in such a fair manner.

At this time, Meng Yiwan really had the urge to tear Meng Yizhen into pieces.

It seems that because Meng Yiwan's gaze was too eager, Meng Yizhen was extremely unhappy because of the prince's arrival, and then subsided, and slowly met Meng Yiwan's gaze, curled his lips, showing a smug expression.

Meng Yiwan almost vomited blood, but because the people present were all famous people, she had no choice but to hold back in her heart, thinking that she must have a good complaint with her mother-in-law when she gets home.

"Now that everyone is here, let's get started."

Lou Jing clapped his hands while talking, and a group of dancers came up with beautiful lotus steps, and then the musicians played the movement, and the people in the hall instantly became warm.

Prince Li Qichuan had seen Meng Yizhen come to sit beside her in such an open and aboveboard manner, so he just happened to catch the opportunity to speak at this time, how could he let it go so easily.

"Yizhen, why did you run so fast today? Don't you want to see Brother Qichuan?"

Meng Yizhen lowered his eyes, concealed the disgust in his eyes, nodded at Li Qichuan strangely and said: "Your Highness the Crown Prince misunderstood, Yizhen didn't see His Highness the Crown Prince today, and he didn't listen to His Royal Highness the Empress Crown Prince when he thought about it. Please forgive me, His Royal Highness."

Li Qichuan frowned slightly after hearing this, but he sighed and accepted Meng Yizhen's apology, and Meng Yizhen just caught Li Qichuan's weakness. If it wasn't for her soft ears and easy listening to others, she would not have died in her last life. miserable.

"Well, I was worrying too much, but Yizhen's mood today is not the same as before. Is it because Brother Qichuan didn't go to the prime minister's mansion to see you?" Li Qichuan was obviously also a master who was unwilling to let go. After staying with Meng Yizhen, he asked the question to the end.

Meng Yizhen frowned slightly, obviously irritated.

"Really, do you think that dancer dances well?"
