It was the first time Zhou Youning saw Meng Xilan's panicked appearance, but what she couldn't understand was why she would react so much to the prince's brother's marriage?

Meng Xilan was clearly aware of the seriousness of the problem. She couldn't sit idly by, so she took leave from the Queen Mother as soon as possible, saying that she had something temporary and wanted to go home from the palace.

Seeing her anxious look, the Queen Mother naturally nodded in agreement.

Meng Xilan left the palace in a hurry, but did not go home, but went straight to the general's mansion.

Count the hours, and the will of the palace should have arrived. I don't know the people of the Chu family, and Jingwen, how would she react when she heard such news? Meng Xilan didn't even dare to think about it.

At this moment, the general's mansion has not yet recovered from the shock.

The Chu family has been meritorious for generations, a loyal and good family, and the ancestor is the founder of the Northern Yan Dynasty.

Meng Xilan's sudden visit made the second wife of the Chu family, Liang, who was still crying, lift a little spirit.

She came to see Meng Xilan with red eyes, and the melancholy on her face was self-evident.

Liang is the biological mother of Chu Jingchuan and Chu Jingwen, and Meng Xilan's future mother-in-law.

The incident happened suddenly, Meng Xilan didn't know how to open her mouth for a while, so she hurriedly saluted her before she spoke: "Auntie, I'm here to see Jingwen." ”

She affectionately called her "aunt" instead of the polite "madam".

Liang had tears in his eyes: "You're here, Jingwen her...... She's in the room. ”

Obey, as soon as the will of the palace arrived, Chu Jingwen locked himself in the room, and refused to come out even if he was persuaded by anyone.

Meng Xilan begged, "Madam, can you let me meet her?" ”

Liang slowly stepped forward to hold her hand, and said in a sincere tone: "Lan'er, help your aunt persuade her, persuade her." ”

Meng Xilan was stunned, nodded hurriedly, and said, "I know." ”

Because of the relationship between the two families and the friendship between the two, Meng Xilan can go to the inner courtyard of the Chu family without hesitation.

Everything in the courtyard is still familiar to Meng Xilan. At this moment, a group of grandmothers and maids stood outside Chu Jingwen's door, knocking on the door again and begging again: "Second Miss, open the door." Slave begs you......"

Meng Xilan came to the door, and those who knew her showed surprised expressions: "Miss Meng, you are here." ”

Meng Xilan didn't care about others, walked straight over and knocked on the door, took a deep breath and said, "Jingwen, it's me." ”

It was quiet inside, and no one responded to her.

Meng Xilan knocked again: "Jingwen, it's me, I'm coming to see you." ”

Still no sound.

Meng Xilan was secretly a little scared in her heart, and hurriedly ordered everyone: "This won't work, hurry up and open the door...... I'm worried that something will happen to Jingwen. ”

When Liang heard this, he hurriedly found a few servants and slammed the door open.

The moment the door opened, Meng Xilan's nose sensitively caught a trace of blood.

She was so sensitive to the smell.

The room was warmed by the warm cage, and the heat mixed with the smell of blood rushed to Meng Xilan's face.

A petite and straight figure turned his back to everyone, and Chu Jingwen stood at the slightly messy table, motionless, but holding a blood-stained dagger in his hand.

Everyone exclaimed, and Liang's eyes were even darker, and he fainted directly.

Meng Xilan was the only one who kept her sanity among all of them, she stepped forward, pulled Chu Jingwen's wrist and took a look, and sure enough, she saw a bloody cut.

The red blood flowed down her fingers, dropping on the ground drop by drop, making a deafening sound that kept beating Meng Xilan's heart.

Blood stained Chu Jingwen's cuffs red, and Meng Xilan's eyes red.

"Fool's ......"

Chu Jingwen turned her head slowly, her face, which was always full of vitality, was lifeless, pale and weak at the moment.

By the time Lang Zhong wrapped Chu Jingwen's wrist, her face was still expressionless.

Lang Zhong said that her wound was too deep, it had already hurt her tendons and veins, and it would take a long time to recover.

Meng Xilan had been by her side, looking at her bandaged wrist, both worried and heartbroken.

The elders of the Chu family came to visit, and they all said what they should say and what they shouldn't say. However, Chu Jingwen kept her eyes closed, leaned on the pillow, and didn't say a word. If it weren't for the fact that she was still breathing, it would have made her mistakenly think that she was dead.

The room was very quiet and unsettling.

Meng Xilan stayed until the end and took the initiative to hold Chu Jingwen's hand.

Her hands were cold, clenched into fists hard, and her knuckles were slightly white, with anger and grievance.

"Silent ...... Don't do anything stupid, I beg you. After being silent for a while, Meng Xilan took a deep breath and said calmly.

Chu Jingwen lowered her eyes and said in a hoarse tone: "I won't marry the prince." ”

The reputation of the prince has long been discredited, and everyone knows what kind of person he is. If you let her marry such a person, it is better to let her die directly!

"That is the decree of the Queen Mother, and no one can disobey it." Although this was cruel, Meng Xilan still had to tell the truth.

When Chu Jingwen heard this, his eyes flashed slightly, and then he looked at the tea bowl placed next to the bed, and then broke away from Meng Xilan's hand, pushed the tea bowl to the ground, and smashed it.

Just when Meng Xilan was stunned, she leaned over and picked up a glass of broken porcelain and swiped it straight at her cheek...... She didn't believe it, if she broke her appearance, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would still be willing to marry her!

Meng Xilan was shocked when she saw this, and she didn't know where she got the courage, so she stretched out her hand to block her and directly held the sharp porcelain piece.

The sharp fragments easily pierced the flesh and skin, and there was a sharp pain in the palm of the palm, Meng Xilan gritted her teeth, but still didn't let go.

Chu Jingwen couldn't hide the surprise in her heart, looked at her in a daze, tears poured down, and slid down her cheeks: "You ......"

It was a tear of shock and a tear of sadness.

Meng Xilan threw the broken porcelain piece to the ground heavily, not caring about the bleeding wound on her hand, just looking at Chu Jingwen, her eyes burning, and she said in a calm tone: "I know you are sad, but no matter how angry you are, no matter how sad you are, you can't ruin your life in vain!" When you die, you have nothing, and when you die, you can't do anything! Jingwen, are you really willing to give up your relatives? Are you willing to let me be a friend? ”

When Chu Jingwen heard this, her heart trembled slightly, and she hurriedly covered Meng Xilan's wound with a quilt, her expression even more sad.

"Lan'er, I don't want to enter the palace, I don't want to marry ......" Halfway through the words, she suddenly swallowed again, Chu Jingwen bit her lip hard to prevent herself from shedding tears, but the tears fell even more fiercely.

Meng Xilan was so full of unbearable that she even forgot the pain in her hands. She has never been afraid of heaven and earth since she was a child, and she has never cried.

She patted her on the shoulder and comforted, "There will always be a way, as long as you are good, there will definitely be a way." ”

Although Meng Xilan said this, she didn't have a clue at all.

Actually, this matter is not complicated, as long as you find a way to get the Queen Mother to retract her will and annul this marriage. However, it is very difficult for them to do this.

The matter of the crown prince's choice of concubine, the queen mother has been thinking about it for so long, and finally decided on the candidate, how can she say that it will change?

If you start from Chu Jingwen's side, if you want to ruin the marriage, you must make a fuss about her. But in this way, it is very likely to damage her body or reputation, and the consequences are enough to ruin her life.

Both ends are a difficult word, and Meng Xilan really can't think of a way.
