Chapter 35: Rumor-mongering
Thinking of the miserable appearance of Meng combing his eyebrows now, the mother and daughter laughed happily, and even the injury that was beaten by Meng Guogong last time was not so painful.
"Sister's complexion is so good today."
Several noble ladies and Meng Xiangrong sat in the back garden of the Guogong Mansion chatting.
Although the last poetry meeting failed to allow Meng Xiangrong to climb the high branch of King Yu, it can be regarded as meeting a few faceless noblewomen in the capital, so Meng Xiangrong also scolded them very much.
"Have you heard, a few days ago, King Chen's Mansion lost a concubine, and King Chen was so angry that he directly asked the forbidden army patrolling the capital to find someone."
This matter has spread in the capital, and many people know about it.
Everyone thinks that King Chen is really a little too arrogant, and he has lost a concubine, so what's there to worry about, anyway, how many concubines there are.
However, they also felt that King Chen was still affectionate and righteous, and they actually gave birth to a trace of envy.
"Concubine?"
Meng Xiangrong sneered and whispered: "If it's really just a concubine, how can it be a storm in the city." ”
The ladies all pricked up their ears and asked Meng Xiangrong if he knew any exclusive insider.
After all, she is the princess's own sister.
Meng Xiangrong's face was embarrassed, and his eyes were red.
"It's so hard to talk about, I'm really hard to say."
Her desire to talk about it gives others a lot of room for reverie.
The ladies are not stupid, seeing her expression like this, and the fact that she doesn't seem to have heard the news of Meng Combing in the past few days, she has a plan in her heart.
It seems that it is not the concubine who is lost, but the princess, no wonder King Chen is in such a hurry.
Being kidnapped by thieves is a big deal, in the past, similar things happened, women would choose to commit suicide for their own reputation, not to mention that now it is the princess who has an accident, which is related to the face of the royal family.
If this matter spreads, where will King Chen's face go?
Meng Xiangrong knew that her purpose had been hit, and these noble girls would definitely tell others about this matter when they went back, and when the time came, she would like to see where Meng Comb's face could go!
Although these noble ladies are raised in the deep boudoir, there are a lot of small maids around them, and if they say something, they will be spread quickly, and the royal secret is originally curious by many people, and this kind of peach-colored scandal is a gossip that everyone likes.
The nobles whispered, talking about the recent abduction of Meng Comb, it seems that King Chen is wearing a big green hat on his head.
"Sisters, you're really interested."
While he was talking, Meng Combrow appeared in front of the nobles, and Jing Qicheng was still standing beside him.
Everyone immediately knelt down, afraid that what they had just said would be heard by her.
"No formality, get up."
Meng combed his eyebrows and said with a smile, with a kind face.
She stroked her sideburns, and Jing Qicheng raised her hand to pull the broken hair between her sideburns to the back, looking like a husband and a wife.
The ladies all wondered in their hearts, how could King Yichen's temper be so good to a woman who had lost her honor?
"Lord Wang, the sister who was kidnapped by the thieves is buried alive."
"I have treated his family well, and I have already brought the thief to justice."
Jing Qicheng glanced at those noble ladies and said lightly: "Those bandits still say some unclean things when they die, and it is a capital crime to talk about the royal people, and it is not a pity to kill them with a thousand knives." ”
The ladies all shuddered, and just wanted to touch their heads and still be on their necks.
Meng combed his eyebrows and joked with Jing Qicheng a few words, always with a smile on his face, and he couldn't see any flaws at all.
Even she was impressed by her acting skills.
The nobles saw that there was indeed no suspicion between her and Jing Qicheng, and they all felt that they should not be deceived by Meng Xiangrong.
There is a difference in identity between the concubine and the concubine, and those of them who have sisters also know that they are fighting for their father's favor in the house on weekdays, even if they are sisters, they will inevitably be in the same situation.
I have long heard that Meng Xiangrong and Meng comb their eyebrows do not match, could it be that Meng Xiangrong really made it up?
"It's not too early, lord, I'm a little tired, you can go back with me."
Jing Qicheng naturally held Meng Comb's hand, which made those noble ladies envious.
You must know that the crown princess has always honestly followed the prince a foot away, and she has never even been side by side.
"Thank you so much for today."
Meng Combrow heard about the turmoil in the capital, and was even more sure that this matter was manipulated by Yue's mother and daughter behind her back, so she asked Jing Qicheng to accompany her in a scene.
But there's a question she really wants to ask him, and that's if he really doesn't mind disappearing overnight.
He is a man in the end, he is his princess, if he changes to someone else, he is afraid that he will sweep himself out of the house, or he will directly end himself with a glass of poisoned wine and a white silk to protect the reputation of the palace.
"If those bandits really moved you, you wouldn't show mercy."
Jing Qicheng raised the corners of her mouth, she still didn't know Meng Comb's temper, she thought that it would be a good match, if someone wanted to harm her, she would definitely return it ten times and a hundred times.
Moreover, even if she doesn't, she will cut the person who hurt her with a thousand knives.
Meng combed his eyebrows and smiled: "Now there is no audience, and there is no need to continue acting." ”
"Do you think I'm acting?"
Meng combed his eyebrows and lowered his head, aren't they all acting now?
When he is willing to take the initiative to confess his identity in front of him, they will have the possibility of heart-to-heart.
Before that, Meng Combrow would definitely not give his sincerity first.
Jing Qicheng didn't say anything, just slightly clenched Meng Comb's hand.
"Miss, why do you suddenly want to invite them to the palace?"
Chun Xing was puzzled, didn't Miss hate Yue's mother and daughter the most? Why did you suddenly post to invite Meng Guogong and the Yue family to come to the palace?
"They are also my mother's family, and if they don't get along with each other for a long time, it is inevitable that there will be speculation outside."
Meng combed his eyebrows and asked Chunxing to just send the post, and nothing else.
She was a post in the name of Jing Qicheng, and Meng Guogong didn't dare not come.
As soon as they heard that they were going to the palace, Yue and Meng Xiangrong were beating drums in their hearts.
A few days ago, Lord Zhu's daughter came to the door and gave her a harsh lesson in front of Meng Xiangrong, telling her to take care of her mouth in the future and stop causing trouble and causing them again.
Meng Xiangrong didn't know what was going on at first, but later learned that the nobles in the capital now think she was a liar.
Originally, she wanted to ruin Meng Combrow with rumors, but she didn't want to put herself in.
What scared her even more was that Chen Ah Si and his brothers had disappeared in the capital, and Meng Xiangrong felt that he must have been killed.
