It's the end of the month again, and the ice room in the palace has begun to store ice cubes to escape the heat.

Meng Xilan has always liked heat rather than cold, and seeing that midsummer is approaching day by day, her mood is getting better and better. When she is in a good mood, what Meng Xilan hopes most is to be able to go home and have a look. She hadn't seen her family for a long time, and she was very worried about it.

After getting up in the morning and offering incense, Meng Xilan asked the Queen Mother for permission to leave the palace, and the Queen Mother nodded and agreed. Meng Xilan simply had breakfast, and then instructed Zhu Lu and Zhu Qing to pack up the things she had prepared in advance.

Recently, the rewards in the palace have been one after another, and she can't use up the fine silk alone, just so that she can pass it on to the sisters at home. However, it was inconvenient to take those jade and jewelry out of the palace, so she didn't bring any of them.

All the way back to Mengfu, the people of the gatehouse greeted each other respectfully. The grandmother beside Mrs. Meng personally helped her get out of the carriage, her expression was solemn, and she seemed a little nervous.

"I haven't seen you for a long time, are the elders in the family okay?"

The grandmother nodded: "If you go back to Her Royal Highness the Princess, everything in the house will ...... All good. ”

Seeing that she was a little hesitant to answer, Meng Xilan couldn't help but move her eyebrows. She took Zhulu's hand, entered the weeping flower door, and then went all the way to the main hall.

Mrs. Meng and Feng were waiting for her in the hall, and when they saw that she was dressed in white plain, they were slightly stunned.

"Xilan greets grandmother and Erniang." Meng Xilan was about to bend her knees and salute, but Feng Shi stretched out her hand to support her: "You have worked hard all the way, so you should sit down and rest quickly." ”

Mrs. Meng immediately asked: "The concubine in the palace has been dead for more than a month, why are you still ...... Could it be that something happened in the palace again? ”

Meng Xilan lowered her eyes slightly: "No." Because I promised in front of the Buddha that I would personally keep filial piety for the concubine for a year. ”

Hearing this, Mrs. Meng straightened her back and sighed: "Actually, you are just suspicious, why should you be so serious." ”

Meng Xilan's personality is stubborn, and she is worried that she will always be obsessed with this matter.

"Grandmother, I never easily suspect a person, a thing. In any case, I still want to do my best for the concubine. She really couldn't easily forget that incident, and she didn't want to act as if nothing had happened.

Old Mrs. Meng nodded when she heard this: "I know, you can do what you want." ”

Meng Xilan smiled slightly, and then looked up: "Why don't you see your sister-in-law and Brother Yun?" ”

Feng Shi hurriedly said: "It's really unfortunate that your sister-in-law took Brother Yun back to her parents' house to visit her father-in-law." I won't be back until tomorrow evening. ”

Meng Xi was not disappointed when she heard this: "It's okay, the Queen Mother allows me to go back to the house for a few more days, and I can wait for them to come back." ”

For some reason, when Feng Shi heard this, the expression on his face stiffened for a moment, and he didn't seem to be very happy.

Meng Xilan was unconsciously surprised, so she deliberately said, "Erniang, what's wrong?" Aren't you glad I'm back? ”

Feng shook his head again and again: "Of course not, I can't be happy anymore." After saying this, she hurriedly glanced at the old lady's face, and the old lady knew that she couldn't hide something, so she hurriedly changed the topic and said, "It's almost time for lunch, hurry up and let the kitchen make some delicious food." ”

Feng Shi responded again and again, got up and left.

Meng Xilan silently sensed something, and hurriedly grabbed Feng's arm and stopped her: "Erniang don't be busy first, I came back with breakfast." We haven't seen each other for a long time, so it's better to talk in one place. ”

Feng Shi smiled, took her hand and sat down again.

The girls held the tray in their hands and came over to serve tea.

Mrs. Meng always has a lot to say every time she sees her granddaughter, but today she has very few words, and her expression with a teacup is clearly something she wants to say.

Meng Xilan waited for a moment, but felt a little anxious: "Grandmother, do you have something to hide from me?" ”

"Huh?" Feng Shi was the first to react, and waved his hand again and again to say no, but the expression on his face clearly said that there was something.

Mrs. Meng's face changed, she slowly put down the teacup in her hand, and said in a deep voice: "There is indeed a tricky thing at home, no, it should be said that it is a big ugly thing." ”

She didn't want to tell Meng Xilan so early.

"Ugly?" Meng Xilan's sensitive nerves immediately tensed.

Old Lady Meng frowned and said, "Xiyue, she ...... Pregnant. ”

When Meng Xilan heard this, her right hand immediately trembled, and she almost didn't drop the teacup to the ground. What the? Meng Xiyue is pregnant? How is this possible! She is not married yet and has no crush, where did this child come from?

"That girl is really ashamed!" Feng Shi was furious when he mentioned this. About half a month ago, the maid next to her said that she often felt sick to her stomach and vomited whatever she ate. I was worried that she was sick, so I asked the doctor to see her! Only after this look did I know that she was ...... It's hateful that girl to do such a shameless thing behind our backs! ”

That's not the most hateful, though. After Meng Xiyue knew that she was pregnant, she had no shame, but behaved extremely happy. The family questioned her many times, but she just didn't say, whose evil seed is in the womb?

Meng Xilan's face became gloomy: "Where is Xiyue now?" "She had to see her right away and get things straight.

Mrs. Meng didn't want her to worry about this, so she said, "She is now locked up and guarded by a maid and a mother-in-law. You just leave her alone. ”

In fact, this kind of scandal can be solved with a bowl of decoction. The key depends on whether you can be ruthless.

"No, grandmother, you better let me go and see Yue'er. I'm her sister, and if I do, maybe she'll tell me the truth. ”

Meng Xilan was full of doubts about this matter, with Meng Xiyue's scheming and IQ, she had no reason to do such a stupid thing. There must be something hidden in this, and maybe even some kind of conspiracy.

Old Madam Meng stared at her, and pondered for a moment before saying, "Okay, you can go if you want." ”

Meng Xilan hurriedly got up when she heard this, without a moment's delay.

Outside Meng Xiyue's room, there was a big-shouldered and round-waisted mother-in-law standing on both sides, keeping a firm eye on the door and window.

Seeing this, Meng Xilan felt a little redundant in her heart. Even if the door is wide open, Meng Xiyue can't escape from the Meng family for half a step, unless she can fly off the wall.

"To Miss Four...... Greetings to Your Highness. ”

Meng Xilan pointed to the door and said, "Open it for me." ”

"Yes." The mothers-in-law knew her identity, and hurriedly went over to unlock the door and push open the door.

Because there are no windows, the light in the room is a little dim, and the air is not very good. Meng Xilan picked up a handkerchief to cover her nose, held Zhulu's hand, and walked in.

Meng Xiyue had already heard the movement outside, but she had been lying on the bed without moving, until she saw Meng Xilan come in, she sat up slightly, looked at her and smiled faintly: "Sister is back." ”

Meng Xi frowned, looked at her with a calm face, and asked bluntly, "Who is the person who did the wrong thing with you?" ”

Meng Xiyue's gaze turned around her face, and then she lay back on the bed and said lightly, "I won't say it." If my sister wants to reprimand me, then just scold. Anyway, no matter how ugly it is, I've heard it all. ”

"I'm not in the mood to scold you, whose seed is it in your belly?"

Meng Xiyue lowered her head and stroked her belly, which was not yet pregnant, and smiled a little proudly: "When the time comes, my sister will know." ”

When Meng Xilan heard this, she couldn't wait to directly step forward and slap her a few times, but she didn't want to dirty her hands: "Are you a three-year-old child?" So naïve. How could the family let you give birth to this evil seed! ”

Meng Xiyue covered her stomach with both hands, and although the expression on her face was a little scared, she still maintained a smile and said, "My child, you'd better not move." Otherwise, you'll regret it. ”

Regret?! A trace of hideousness flashed on Meng Xilan's face: "I think the person who should regret it is you." She slowly turned around, looked at the mother-in-law outside, and ordered, "Send someone to Madame to get a prescription for abortion." Then, after grabbing the medicine according to the recipe, cook it and send it directly. ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this. I couldn't believe that such words would come out of Meng Xilan's mouth.

Meng Xilan looked at them one by one and looked at herself in a daze, and she didn't feel that she screamed: "What are you doing in a daze?" Don't hurry up and boil the medicine! ”

"Ah...... It's ......"

At this moment, Meng Xiyue's face was blue and white for a while, and she was faintly scared in her heart. She didn't believe that Meng Xilan would treat herself so ruthlessly.

Meng Xilan sat down on the chair beside her unhurriedly, expressionless, waiting quietly.

Although Zhulu was scared enough, she still calmed the climate to the side and was not in a hurry.

"Sister, the child in my womb can't be hurt......" Meng Xiyue moved her body and said with a serious face.

Meng Xilan laughed coldly and said, "If you boil the medicine, half an hour will be enough at most." So, you still have half an hour to think about it. If you don't tell the truth, I'll let you drink the decoction no matter what I do today! When the time comes, don't say it's this child, maybe your life will not be saved. ”

When she speaks, her tone is flat, but it's enough to send chills down her spine.

Meng Xiyue raised her eyes in surprise, and the whole person shuddered when she heard it, and immediately got off the bed and said, "You...... Why are you so ruthless! Even my grandmother didn't say that I should beat the child, why should you? ”

Meng Xilan glanced at her, and said with a smile: "With your ruining the reputation of the Meng family, this crime, even if I beat you to death today, no one in the Meng family will say a single word "no". ”

Meng Xiyue was surprised that her attitude towards herself had changed so quickly, and she pretended to be pitiful and said, "Sister, why are you doing this to me?" I'm your own sister! ”

"I think I'm just treating you too well, so you can do such ugly things shamelessly." Meng Xilan retracted her gaze and no longer looked at her: "My patience with you has run out, you can think about it yourself in the last half hour." How, exactly? ”

Meng Xiyue took a step back a little unsteadily, bit her lip hard, and didn't say anything. Meng Xilan was even more calm, and asked Zhulu to prepare refreshments for her, and she tasted snacks while drinking tea in front of Meng Xiyue.

The calmer she was, the more uneasy Meng Xiyue became, so much so that in the end she tried to run out to find the elders for help, but was caught by the mothers-in-law outside and pressed to the bed. No matter how much she shouted, no one listened to her.

What is Meng Xilan's status in the Meng family, everyone knows it in their hearts. She is the master of the masters, not to mention, there is also the identity of the royal family, so she naturally says what is what.

Half an hour later, Zhu Qing really brought a bowl of thick black decoction. "Master...... The medicine is good. ”

Meng Xilan stared at the bowl of medicine for two seconds, and then said lightly: "Then hurry up and give her a drink, so as not to be cold and bitter." ”
