Chapter 222: There is no turning back
The Ning family actually committed suicide, because Emperor Meng Zhao already knew that Meng Lang was not his own, and she was using her death to clear the last retreat for her son.
According to Emperor Meng Zhao's character, he would never let go of the Ning family who betrayed him and other people's children born to the Ning family, so the Ning family didn't want to drag down her children, and she didn't have to continue to suffer the endless torture.
The only thing that made the Ning family happy was that Emperor Meng Zhao still had to take care of his own face after all, and he didn't dare to deal with all this publicly, so he could only secretly attack their mother and son.
She really has no way to escape, but Lang'er is not!
As for Meng Xia, the Ning family knew that this child would definitely have the ability to protect himself, after all, Ah Xia was also the emperor's biological daughter, and the emperor didn't know that Ah Xia had learned those secrets so far.
Therefore, even if this child will be implicated by them, the emperor will definitely not attack him.
According to Meng Xia's temperament, Ning believed that once she was gone, the child would definitely find a way to leave the palace to find Lang'er.
So Ning took the opportunity to end her life, and it can be regarded as the last thing she can do for the two children.
Awakening from his memories, Meng Xia quietly began to eat under the reminder of Caiyi.
After eating and drinking, he got up straight and walked out.
"Princess, where are you going now?" He Miao was anxious, and seeing that the situation didn't seem right, he hurriedly followed and asked with concern.
In the past few days, Meng Xia's state has been too quiet, as if on the eve of a storm, so depressed that they are almost out of breath.
Whether it is Caiyi, He Miao, or Xiao Qiuzi and others, they are all worried that their princess will be sick, and they can't wait to let Meng Xia cry and vent that discomfort.
"Go and kneel outside the Huaide Palace, and kneel until my father sees me!"
Meng Xia didn't turn his head back, and went straight to the Huaide Palace.
There is no need for her to wait for Zheng Qin to help arrange it secretly, she just wants to let everyone know what the current Ninth Princess is doing.
She has always had a strong temperament, and if she could bear to do nothing after so many things happened, it would make her father, who had always been suspicious, very wary of her.
Half an hour later, the entire palace knew that the Ninth Princess, Meng Xia, was kneeling outside the Huaide Hall without saying a word.
Two hours later, Emperor Meng Zhao asked people to persuade him to leave, but Meng Xia still stubbornly knelt there, motionless.
Three hours later, it was almost dark, but Meng Xia knelt so firmly without eating, drinking, or speaking, and had no intention of giving up at all.
This kind of Meng Xia made people sigh, not only Liu Lida, but also other palace people who came and went couldn't help but feel a little sympathy when they saw this.
Finally, Emperor Meng Zhao was relieved and asked Liu Lida to help Meng Xia in.
"Axia, what do you want to do if you have to see me like this?" Seeing his daughter who he hadn't seen for several days, Emperor Meng Zhao felt as if many years had passed.
In fact, he didn't want to treat Meng Xia like this in his heart, but this child was too close to the mother and son, and seeing Meng Xia always made him inevitably think of his own shame.
"Father's forgiveness, I implore my father's grace and son's ministers to go out of the palace to find the third emperor brother in person!"
Meng Xia kowtowed heavily to Emperor Meng Zhao, raised his eyes and said stubbornly: "Ah Xia has already been entrusted by the three emperor brothers, and has not taken good care of the mother concubine, now that the mother concubine is gone, and the third emperor brother is nowhere to be found, Ah Xia really doesn't want to stay in the palace like this." I want to see people in life and corpses in death, Ah Xia has to go to the Three Emperor Brothers in person, otherwise I won't be able to feel at ease in my life! ”
Seeing this, Emperor Meng Zhao was silent for a long time.
After a long while, he sighed and said, "I know that you are a good boy, but it is not as easy as you think to go out of the palace to find someone, your third emperor brother has been missing for so long, I really don't want you to have any more accidents." ”
"As long as my father agrees that I will go out of the palace to find the third emperor brother, Ah Xia is willing to return to the palace on time for half a year, no matter what the result is."
Meng Xia's eyes were firm, and he didn't hide it at all: "Ah Xia knows that his father has made an agreement with Chu Zhengqian, and Ah Xia is willing to obey his father's arrangement to marry Chu Zhengqian, and promises that everything will always put my Dongling's interests first, and he will never let his father down!" ”
She had already guessed that Emperor Meng Zhao's scruples between marrying her and not marrying her would be deliberately used as a condition for negotiation today. After all, this deal was quite cost-effective for Emperor Meng Zhao.
Sure enough, after hearing this call, Emperor Meng Zhao's eyes lit up, and he looked at Meng Xia and asked quickly, "When did Chu Zhengqian tell you about the marriage contract?" ”
Being able to tell Meng Xia this kind of thing without concealing it shows that Chu Zhengqian really values his daughter, if Meng Xia can really be willing to devote herself to Dongling, it would be the best choice to send her to Northern Chu.
"A few days after this visit, he told me the truth one by one, probably because he was afraid that I would like other people, so he deliberately spread out everything."
After Meng Xia responded simply, he pleaded again: "Please also ask your father to fulfill Ah Xia, Ah Xia will live up to his father's bullying!" ”
"Since you are so worried about your third emperor brother, then it is really a little unkind for your father to stop him again."
Emperor Meng Zhao personally stepped forward to help Meng Xia up, and cordially advised: "But you must be careful, your father will send someone to escort you, it is best to be able to find your third emperor brother, if you really can't find it, come back early." Father will also send other people to continue the search, so you can relax. ”
"Thank you, Father!" Meng Xia's eyes were red, and his gratitude was overflowing: "Early tomorrow morning, Ah Xia will set off, and I ask my father to cherish the dragon body!" ”
"Your Majesty, Weichen asks for orders to escort the Ninth Princess, swear to protect the princess to the death, and never let any accidents happen to the princess!"
Gu Zhan didn't know when he had appeared in the Huaide Palace, and when he saw that Emperor Meng Zhao had really allowed Meng Xia to go out of the palace to find the king in person, he immediately stepped forward and knelt down to ask for his life.
He never knew that the emperor had already made an appointment with Chu Zhengqian, and wanted to marry Meng Xia to Chu Zhengqian in exchange for Dongling's greatest interests, and he didn't expect that Meng Xia would use this as a condition for negotiation to persuade the emperor to allow her to leave the palace to find someone.
Therefore, he couldn't let Meng Xia continue to stay in the palace and wait for death, leaving this palace was Meng Xia's only way, and Meng Xia was his last way!
Emperor Meng Zhao was not surprised by Gu Zhan's request, Gu Zhan's affection for Meng Xia and his polite admiration he had always seen in his eyes. It is the most suitable person to let Gu Zhan escort all the way.
"Okay, I will allow you to select twenty elite guards to protect the Ninth Princess all the way, and you must protect her thoroughly, without a trace of carelessness!"
"Wechen obeys!" Gu Zhan received the order in a deep voice.
There is no turning back, but it is the path he is most willing to take in this life! (To be continued.) )
