Chapter 16: Loss of Innocence

After Meng Yao left the sight of the group of people, she quietly came into Chun Manlou, but her eyebrows were anxious at the moment, for fear that something would happen to the young lady, so she waited for a long time and was really worried about getting ready to leave the private room, and bumped into Meng Yao head-on.

"Miss, you weren't embarrassed by those people, were you?"

"Don't worry, it's okay"

"I'm scared to death, it's okay to go for so long."

"Now there is still the most critical thing, and this is what you and I can't do for the time being."

"Miss, what is it?"

"Secret."

Seeing Meng Yao and the personal maid ring coming back dejectedly, Chen pretended to be worried and asked: "Yao'er, why do you look like this, but the shopkeeper bullied you?" ”

Meng Yao sighed: "The eldest mother misunderstood, but she really has no way to deal with the loss of her daughter in the shop." I didn't expect that business has been so difficult in the past few years, and my mother has really worked hard. ”

"It's okay, don't worry too much, your mother's dowry and the shops are not anything that can make money, so I can't complain about you." Chen comforted.

"My daughter understands, I hope the shop won't lose money until it goes bankrupt like this. After a long day of walking, I was a little tired, so I went back to my room first. Meng Yao said goodbye to Chen listlessly.

As soon as she returned to the room, Meng Yao retreated and waited for a group of maids to come to the bookcase to write something, looking at the letter in her hand and not having much confidence, I hope God has mercy.

At night, there was an extra figure by Meng Yao's window, looking at the woman on the bed frowning and sleeping, she finally restrained her impulse and turned away. Disappear into the night, as if you had never been there.

"Miss, the sixth prince invited Miss to go to the lake."

Meng Yao watched the moon hanging high in the sky, with a complaining face that didn't hurt Lao Tzu, and asked very uncertainly: "When are you going to swim in the lake?" ”

"Tatsuki"

"What time is it?"

"Mao Shi"

"Very good" said and turned his head to sleep, closed his eyes and couldn't help but complain: "I was notified before dawn, are you afraid that I won't live until the hour?" ”

"Doesn't Miss need to get up and dress up now?"

"No"

Before dawn, Mu Linghan anxiously told his subordinates to buy breakfast for the lake, and instructed Xu Shi to check whether the boat was safe, and he was afraid that the wind would be strong in the morning, and he prepared a few thick cloaks, and looked at the black clothes in front of the mirror and fell into thought, and then changed to a younger light cyan, but he didn't think it was manly, so he turned around and changed to a dark blue.

Meng Yao did not apply powder, and simply appeared in a light purple dress in front of everyone, as pure and immaculate as a water lily in the morning. Facing the early morning wind, his clothes fluttered, and even his hair danced in the wind.

However, at this moment, Meng Yao shouted in her heart: I wear less clothes, this wind is my life......

Mu Linghan noticed that the eyes of the people around him were attracted by Meng Yao, and his face was very unhappy for a while, very unhappy. Holding a heavy cloak, Meng Yao was tightly wrapped from head to toe without dead ends, and also declared sovereignty and affectionately tied the rope of the cloak to Meng Yao in front of him.

Meng Yao, who was originally cold and almost unconscious, enjoyed the warmth brought by this heavy cloak very much, raised her head and gave Mu Linghan a smile, and in an instant, everything around her seemed to lose color in Mu Linghan's eyes, and even the hand that tied the rope couldn't help but stop.

"I didn't expect the prince to receive my letter, so soon to act, and bother the prince to get up early in the morning." Meng Yao said that it was actually true, after all, before she came, she didn't expect that Mu Linghan had already prepared all this for herself, and she could see that it was definitely not temporary, and she really felt warm in her heart for a while.

"The first time I came out with you, I didn't dare to be sloppy." Mu Linghan's face was as usual, and he was making tea in his hand.

A light hit the young man's face, making the originally cold face more soft, and the appearance of the young man bowing his head and focusing on making tea was full of life.

The boy felt the woman's gaze and subconsciously raised his head, the two looked at each other, and the sunrise that appeared on the horizon rubbed the two into light and shadow. With just one glance, they become the light in each other's dim lives.

The fragrance of flowers in the plum garden, the delicacies of the drunken fairy building, the ice and snow world in Yushan, and the horse racing of the carriage. In just a few days, Meng Yao briefly forgot the pain of her previous life in the company of Mu Linghan, and also briefly left behind the step-by-step and intrigue since her rebirth. That period of time was also a beautiful moment for Meng Yao to mention later.

On this day, as usual, Mu Linghan sent Meng Yao back to Xiao's mansion, and as soon as the two entered, they saw Xiao Xiang sitting in the main hall with a serious face, kneeling down in the hall to worship a man and a woman.

"Daddy, what's going on?"

was about to speak, but saw Mu Linghan next to him swallow the words to his mouth.

Chen gave the kneeling man a look, and the man reacted instantly, and immediately kowtowed again and again: "My lord spares his life, the slave is not deliberately offended by the daughter for a while, and the crime deserves death." ”

"Shut up!" Xiao Xiang slapped the table next to him.

"Xiao Xiang, what is the government dealing with?"

"Let the prince smile, there is a little problem at home, don't bother the prince. Steward Wang, send the six princes back to their homes. ”

"Master, sooner or later, this matter will be revealed, and it is good for people to gather together and talk about it clearly, so as not to hurt the friendship between the two families in the future." Chen's bitter persuasion.

"Daddy, what the hell is going on?" Meng Yao looked puzzled.

"Xiao Mengyao, why didn't you tell me and your father about this kind of thing, since you did these unsightly things behind our backs."

"Eldest mother, my daughter has a clear conscience and has never done anything to disgrace Xiaofu's face."

"You and the groom of the Changwangfu secretly colluded to do some things between men and women, and now that the witnesses are present, how can you quibble."

Meng Yao came to the groom and the maid to identify carefully, and glanced at Mu Linghan secretly with Xiao Xiang and Chen behind her back, and saw that Mu Linghan's face was not inappropriate, so she said softly intermittently: "I remember this maid, when I went to the banquet in the Changwang Mansion, this maid took me to change into clean clothes after splashing my body of tea, but this man really looked at the face, and his daughter had no impression. ”

"If you don't have an impression, you might as well ask someone to come for a physical examination" Chen could hear Meng Yao's panic, and he couldn't hold back to expose Meng Yao's bad things in public.

"Why is the eldest mother so sure of the words of a few subordinates, and she doesn't listen to my explanation and directly doubts. Could it be that the eldest mother had seen her daughter and others on the spot. If I am still innocent after the examination, what should the eldest mother do? ”

Chen Shi only felt that he was really strong when he looked at Meng Yao's current appearance, not to mention that this groom even said it clearly when the two of them were reluctant, how could it be fake. said confidently: "If it is fake, it will naturally kill this rumor-mongering minion." ”

The groom couldn't help but be shocked after hearing this, this Chen couldn't imagine being so ruthless, since he directly wanted his own life.

"Since it is about the princess who has not passed through the door, then the king naturally recommended himself to ask the grandmother in the palace to check the body of the princess in order to prevent people with intentions from maliciously framing him."

"If you ......" Xiao Henan couldn't speak after all, and said slowly after a pause, "I just ask the prince to see that the little girl is young and ignorant, spare her life, and the loss of the prince's mansion will be borne by the minister alone." ”

In less than an hour, Meng Yao went down to a small cubicle with the support of her grandmother in the palace.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Mama came out and whispered in front of Xiao Xiang.

"Come on, pull down this group of minions who spread rumors and make trouble, and then throw them back to the Changwang's mansion for the Changwang to deal with."

Chen was shocked, how could it be so, looking at Meng Yao who was proving his innocence at this moment with a vicious face, seeing that Meng Yao and the six princes were affectionate, looking at her husband with a heart to Meng Yao, unwilling.

Chen stopped the servant who wanted the ramafu and the maid to leave, and turned to look at Xiao Henan with a look of disgust: "Stop, master, is this going to beat the only witness to death in order to completely cover up the bastard thing that this cheap hoof has done?" ”
