Silly couple dote on their wives

Chapter 572 Let's Take It Slowly

Knowing that he had run out of persuasion, Mr. Li sighed, and finally turned around and left the Wei Mansion. He suddenly felt that he could not figure out what Meng Ruoqing was thinking.

It wasn't until the sound of footsteps completely disappeared in her ears that Meng Ruoqing turned around and looked in the direction where Mr. Li was leaving. Her eyes gradually became cold and hard. No matter what, she couldn't let Lanzhi die in vain.

In the capital, a war between the Ximen family and the imperial merchant Meng Ruoqing started completely. Although Meng Ruoqing's background was not as deep as that of Ximen Patriarch, in this war, Meng Ruoqing firmly held the upper hand.

Under Meng Ruoqing's intentional or unintentional attacks, the branch of Ximen's family in the capital has gradually shown signs of decline. If this continues, Ximen's family will have no place to stand in the capital.

Finally Ximen Yue couldn't bear it any longer, she hurriedly went to Murong You: "Your Majesty, don't you really care about this matter?"

"Didn't you think of such a situation when you were doing those things?" Murong You sneered without even raising his head.

"Me!" Ximen Yue paused. What was she going to say? Didn't she expect that Meng Ruoqing would take revenge?No, she thought about it, but she didn't expect Meng Ruoqing to take such a way.

"Ximen Yue, you underestimate Meng Ruoqing." Murong You finally gave Ximen Yue a look, but what he said really made Ximen Yue feel cold all over his body.
Ximen Yue walked out of the house slowly in a daze. She looked at the blue sky exposed under the eaves, paused for a moment, and suddenly ran towards the outside of the palace. She couldn't let such a thing happen, she couldn't.

"The first person Ximen Yue went to look for was naturally Mr. Li: "Father, please help me, please?"I know I'm doing something wrong. "

"I'm sorry, I can't help you." Mr. Li didn't want to see such a chaotic situation, but he couldn't help it. No one could change Meng Ruoqing's mind, not even him.

"Are you going to just sit and watch Ximen's family be destroyed by Meng Ruoqing?" Ximen Yue never thought that she would get such a result.

"Or, you can avoid Ruoqing's sharp edge first, and make plans later." This is the most compromise method that Mr. Li can think of at present, although he is also very clear that it is impossible for Ximen's family to accept it.

"I see. Thank you foster father." Ximen Yue calmed down now. After she responded, she stood up and saluted Mr. Li, then walked outside.

Mr. Li looked at Ximen Yue's leaving back and sighed deeply. After all, it was Ximen Yue himself who caused this situation.

After coming out of Mr. Li's mansion, Ximen Yue went to Meng Ruoqing's mansion. Seeing Ximen Yue coming, Uncle Zhong was very upset, but he still notified: "Ma'am, Imperial Concubine Jing has handed over the greeting card. Shall I see you?"

"See, why don't you see me?" Meng Ruoqing had expected this point a long time ago, she put down the blessing knot she wove, stood up and followed Uncle Zhong to the front hall.

At this moment, Ximen Yue was already waiting in the front hall, Meng Ruoqing came in from outside with a smile on her face, seeing Ximen Yue, Meng Ruoqing just bowed slightly: "I don't know what kind of wind has brought Imperial Concubine Jing to the humble house?"

"Meng Ruoqing, what exactly do you want?" Seeing Meng Ruoqing's calm expression, Ximen Yue finally couldn't help but get angry.

"Why, are you scared?" The smile on the corner of Meng Ruoqing's mouth suddenly disappeared, and her face became a little more serious.

"Afraid of you? Why should I be afraid of you! It's really ridiculous!" Ximen Yue gritted her teeth and looked at Meng Ruoqing. How could she admit that she was afraid!

"Just don't be afraid, let's take our time!" Meng Ruoqing raised the corners of her lips, seemingly very happy, she walked to the side and sat down, looking leisurely and comfortable.

"Meng Ruoqing, my Ximen family is a century-old family. With your small family background, you can't beat us at all. You should stop as soon as possible." Ximen Yue tried to explain the situation to Meng Ruoqing, hoping that Meng Ruoqing could take the initiative to stop.

"A century-old family?" Meng Ruoqing put down the cup and sighed, then quickly raised her head, her eyes fixed on Ximen Yue: "It won't be so soon."

"Why do you say that?" Ximen Yue wanted to calmly talk to Meng Ruoqing patiently, but after hearing what Meng Ruoqing said, she still couldn't calm down.

"The result is obvious, isn't it? You are not my opponent!" Before, Ximen Yue would think that Meng Ruoqing was too arrogant, but now she has to admit that she has the capital to be arrogant.

But just give up like this?Obviously she couldn't do it, and her father didn't want to just give up like this, but what else could they rely on now?

"Meng Ruoqing, our Ximen family won't be defeated so easily, let's wait and see!" Ximen Yue stood up, said coldly to Meng Ruoqing, and quickly left General Wei's mansion.

On the other side, Patriarch Luo was entertaining Patriarch Ximen who came in a hurry: "I still need to think about what you said, and I hope Patriarch Ximen will give me some time."

"The conditions I put forward are of great benefit and harmless to the Luo family. I hope Patriarch Luo will consider it carefully and give me an answer as soon as possible." Knowing that Patriarch Luo, an old fox, will not let go easily, Patriarch Ximen didn't say anything more.

"Patriarch Ximen, go slowly." Patriarch Luo also stood up and sent Patriarch Ximen out the door with a smile.

"Father, please don't agree to Patriarch Ximen." After Patriarch Ximen left, Luo Shu, the eldest son of the Luo family, suddenly stepped into the hall from the outside, and said to Patriarch Luo.

"Why?" For the eldest son's objection, Patriarch Luo would not take it for granted, but patriarch Luo still felt a little displeased with his sudden appearance.

"Please forgive me, if the Ximen family wins this struggle, it will not do us any good, and if the Ximen family loses, it will not do us any harm. Moreover, the emperor can see Meng Ruoqing who is in trouble for the Ximen family. Clams fight each other, but no one will be allowed to take advantage of others." Luo Shu analyzed the current situation to Patriarch Luo.

"What do you mean?" Patriarch Luo couldn't help asking because he really didn't understand what his son Luo Shu said.

"Father, don't forget, besides being an imperial merchant, what else is Meng Ruoqing's identity? General Wei and Old General Ji are fighting the enemy bravely in the northern border, and Young General Ji has already set off for the northern border. How important is Meng Ruoqing's identity? , don't you understand?" Luo Shu continued.

Patriarch Luo soon understood that the emperor handed over the position of Emperor Shang to Meng Ruoqing, usually for the sake of trust, but most of the time, it might be to stabilize Wei Mingxuan.
