Chapter 17: Meng Zhuo'er is gone
Meng Zhuo'er couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, her eyes were full of pride, but when her eyes met the deep and interested gaze of the man on the side, she immediately cried again.
She suddenly knelt in front of Old Madam Yao: "Grandma, I can see that His Royal Highness really doesn't like me...... Zhuo'er knows that the twisted melon is not sweet, why not let go and let the second highness go to pursue his own happiness, so as not to hate each other in the future, and he will also become a pair of resentful couples.
Zhuo'er didn't want her grandmother to hurt her grandchildren with the second highness for Zhuo'er, and asked her grandmother to let Zhuo'er go, so forget about this marriage. β
She cried with tears on her face, as if she was really wronged.
Yue Zhichen looked at Meng Zhuo'er in disbelief, not understanding what trick she was playing.
She would be willing to cancel the engagement.
But she was the one who rushed to be her second princess before.
Yue Zhichen was very disdainful, thinking that this was just a common means used by the concubines in the palace to capture and indulge, and to retreat as advance.
Meng Zhuo'er actually said this at this juncture, and there was a reason.
It's not that her grandfather didn't mention the dissolution of the marriage contract to His Majesty, but recently because of the incident between Meng Yifei and Yue Zhichen, there has been a lot of uproar in the capital, and the Mengguo Mansion is loyal to the two emperors, and the honor of the Mengguo Mansion is not a star.
The royal family feared that if the marriage was cancelled at this time, it would confirm the scandal of their royal family.
The fact that the son of heaven actually got involved with his fiancΓ©e's own sisters is not to make the people laugh at it, thinking that they respect the royal family that knees and worships it and is filthy.
Old Madam Yao couldn't bear it, but she didn't reply to Meng Zhuo'er immediately, she just helped her up with pity, and glared at Yue Zhichen fiercely.
Yue Zhichen lowered his head.
He had never lost such a big person, and he was still beaten in front of outsiders and so many minions.
But he couldn't resent his own grandmother, let alone dare to do anything to Yue Zhiting, of course, these were all recorded on Meng Zhuoer.
Of course, Meng Zhuo'er didn't care.
All she wanted was for Mrs. Yao to take pity on her and help her settle the marriage with her grandfather.
Mrs. Yao once served as a captain, and Mrs. Yao was the first female general since the founding of the People's Republic of China.
Later, Meng Zhuoer and the others had dinner in Yao's house, and Mrs. Yao was delayed because of important matters, but Yao Ningming, that is, Yao Hongwen's father, took his wife out for entertainment and did not go home.
Old Madam Yao sneered after hearing the report from her subordinates: "Entertainment? A man who is neither an official nor a businessman, what can matter outside is nothing more than that his woman is dissatisfied with me, an old immortal. β
Old Mrs. Yao is also a straight person, and directly picked up a piece of chicken leg from the table and gave it to Meng Zhuo'er: "Eat, it doesn't matter if they come back or not, we can eat more if they don't come back." β
She is particularly heroic, and she does not hide her appreciation and love for Meng Zhuoer at all.
Meng Zhuo'er smiled at Old Madam Yao, and the sweet pear vortex on her face looked sweet and obedient.
She knows what kind of image she can like.
can think that Yao Ningming is really bold, an adopted son, he actually dares to kick his nose in the face.
Who doesn't know that Nanyue Guogong attaches great importance to dinner, the last meal of the day, unless there is something to come back, otherwise it must be eaten at home.
Yao Ningming has no official position, to put it bluntly, he just doesn't want to come, and even knows that there are guests today and still doesn't give Mrs. Yao face like this.
Either he wanted to rebel against Mrs. Yao to get something, or he simply vented his dissatisfaction.
I heard my grandfather say that Mrs. Yao severely punished the two for Yao Hongwen introducing Meng Yifei to Yue Zhichen, and felt that they were inappropriate goddaughters, so that Yao Hongwen was careless in making friends.
Meng Zhuo'er is only a pity that Mrs. Yao is famous, why are future generations these rebellious things.
She shook her head, but her gaze met the inquiring glance of the man across from her.
Yue Zhiting's ink-like eyes couldn't detect any emotion, but the oppressive force he gave people was very strong, as if he could see through people at a glance, which was very dangerous.
He saw through her.
Meng Zhuo'er frowned, she didn't like the feeling of being spied on secretly.
She looked away, turned back to talk and laugh with Mrs. Yao, down-to-earth and generous, lively and not restrained, as warm as a little sun, and not shy and timid because of the man at the table.
Yue Zhiting is not a person of many words, and Yue Zhichen, who was beaten and disgraced, was even more reluctant to attract any attention, and the two women became the only protagonists at the table.
Until dinner, Ning Ming and his wife did not come back.
Before leaving, Meng Zhuo'er took off the gauze for Mrs. Yao, and she carefully observed the medicinal juice of the medicine residue, and did not have any dislike.
Although it was small, yellow water was found, that is, pus drained from Mrs. Yao's legs.
But because the pores and meridians are severely blocked, there is not much yellow water flowing this time.
"Grandma, you must listen to my persuasion, you must never eat seafood again, even if it is dry.
Although seafood is rare, the body is still very important, don't you want to watch your grandchildren get married and have children? β
Before leaving, Meng Zhuo'er repeatedly instructed Mrs. Yao, "After the toxins in your body are cleared, you will have much less pain when you walk on the ground, and you won't always feel that your legs are swollen and painful." β
"Good~"
Old Madam Yao held Meng Zhuo'er's hand tightly, her eyes were red, "Sometimes grandma looks at you, as if she saw a concubine, she also talked about grandma like this before she got married." β
Yue Zhichen comforted and said: "Grandmother, if you miss your mother, go into the palace to see your mother, and your mother misses you too." β
Concubines can't leave the palace at will, but grandmothers can go into the palace.
Hearing this, Meng Zhuo'er almost couldn't help but roll her eyes on the spot.
Is he a pig's brain?
The simple truth of entering the palace to visit is still needed for him Yue Zhichen to say, but Mrs. Yao's leg is seriously ill and it hurts to walk, which is inconvenient to go in and out, not to mention that Mrs. Yao has been arrogant all her life, how can she be willing to let others see her so embarrassed when she is old.
Old Madam Yao was also speechless, ignored him, and said respectfully to Yue Zhiting: "Lord Wang, the old body is inconvenient, so I won't send you to the door, and I will look at Haihan." β
Yue Zhiting bowed slightly: "Old Madam Yao, you are polite, in this way, this king will also leave first." β
Meng Zhuo'er also echoed and left.
No one paid attention to him, which made Yue Zhichen very embarrassed.
Meng Zhuo'er got into the carriage, because the Yinshan Mansion and the Meng Guogong Mansion were not in the same direction, so the two carriages went their separate ways at the gate of the Yao Mansion.
Meng Zhuo'er lifted the curtain and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after watching Yue Zhiting's carriage drive away.
"Miss, are you nervous?"
Xianglian, who was following outside, asked.
"Fortunately, who is nervous, I am not afraid of Yuezhiting at all."
She immediately denied it.
Xianglian scratched her head: "Huh? It turned out that it was because of the prince, the slave maid thought that you were nervous because she saw the Second Highness, but the Yin Good King was indeed a little scary to look at, and the slave didn't even dare to look at him. β
Meng Zhuo'er: "......"
She also thought that this little girl was talking about Yue Zhiting.
"Let's go back quickly, grandfather will go to the camp again in a few days, and I will have to accompany grandfather in these days."
She said casually and lowered the curtains.
Xianglian was still a little strange, but she didn't think much about it.
But not long after the sedan chair left, suddenly a group of people rushed in front of it, and there were so many people that almost blocked the entire street.
The coachman shouted a loud reprimand to make everyone who rushed to dodge and showed that they were from the Mengguo Mansion.
It stands to reason that the common people would be taboo about the Gaomen Mansion, but these people seemed to be deaf, and kept rushing forward, knocking their carriages into all directions, and even the horses were frightened and almost overturned.
The accompanying guards immediately stepped forward to stabilize the carriage and drive away the crowd.
But these people were like devils entering the village, and even if the guards even saw blood, those people still didn't dodge.
Finally, the crowd finally returned to calm, but everyone was a little embarrassed.
"Are these people crazy?"
Xianglian hurriedly asked, "Miss, are you okay?" Do you want to get a doctor when you get home? β
There was not a sound in the carriage.
Xianglian thought that the young lady had fainted, so she hurriedly opened the curtain, but it was empty inside.
Xianglian looked confused and froze in place: "Miss, she ...... Gone?"
