Chapter 422: Mengyue's Memories ......
Meng Yue, who came out of the imperial study, turned pale, and now it was too late to persuade Meng Xin to stop, and it was impossible, so what should she do?
Yes, she was going to see if the woman who looked exactly like Xena was her daughter, and if so, she would at least want to avoid a conflict between their sisters.
But Xiaohong, who was walking beside her, reminded her softly at this time,
"Eldest princess, since we came out of the imperial study, those guards have been following us, what do they want to do?"
Meng Yue, who was concentrating on thinking about things, didn't notice that someone was following them closely, hearing Xiaohong say this, she stood still and glanced back, and when those people saw this, they hurriedly stopped and lowered their heads.
Meng Yue shook her head helplessly and continued to move forward, humming softly in her mouth,
"He's trying to keep me under house arrest."
With that, she raised her eyebrows, showed a mocking smile, and then changed the direction of her travel, heading towards the ancestral hall.
Although the people in the entire palace want to call her the eldest princess when they see her, and they all show their admiration for her, but who knows, it is just a fictitious title, how easy is it for her to go out so blatantly?
"Xiaohong, go and ask the queen to ......"
Now the only one who can help her is the queen, and there are some things that she should confess to her.
The queen probably knew that she would come to her for help, so when she looked up after saying this, she saw the queen standing at the door of the ancestral hall, looking at her with a gentle face.
She is not very familiar with this queen, because she was not married to Meng Xin when she left the Chu State, and when she returned from the Daning Kingdom, she had become the queen of the Chu State.
And because after she came back, she didn't stay in the palace for a few days before she directly entered the ancestral hall, and she lived for more than 20 years, during which they only met twice, or because of Xina's relationship.
Of course, she was still very grateful to her for raising Xina, and in order to prevent Xina from accompanying her to live a lonely life in this ancestral hall, she resolutely handed her over to the queen to raise.
Even if she had 10,000 reasons not to keep Xena by her side, she did not fulfill her responsibilities as a mother, which is an indisputable fact, and in her heart, she not only felt indebted to Xena, but also grateful to the queen.
There are many things about this queen that make her admire and shine, otherwise she would not be the only woman in the trusted harem so far.
Of course, the relationship between her and Mengxin, the queen must not know, in fact, the people of Chu do not know much, because before she was fourteen years old, she thought she was Mengxin's own sister, but Mengxin, who was a few years older than her, already knew her background and fell in love with her.
The person she has always regarded as her brother, but wants to be her man, this is something she can't accept no matter what, so she chose to escape, but she never expected that Mengxin's feelings for her would be so deep, she fled for five years, he searched for five years, and after finding it, he used various means to bring her back.
Every time she thought of this, she felt that she was extremely tormented in her heart, she could have had a happy life, a man who loved her, and a daughter she loved, but all this was interrupted because of the selfishness of Mengxin.
She originally thought that sacrificing her happiness could be exchanged for Liu Dechang's safety and well-being, and it could also be exchanged for the peaceful coexistence of the two countries, but she didn't want to, all this was still unavoidable, and now her two daughters are still meeting on the battlefield, what an ironic thing.
"Coming back?"
The queen's words interrupted her thoughts, and she looked up at her and smiled softly, "Waiting for me?" She smiled at the queen for the first time in a long time, she hadn't smiled for a long time since she returned to the state of Chu.
The queen looked at her with some surprise, and nodded with a smile,
"I know you're going to come and see me, so I'm waiting for you in advance."
The queen's words surprised Meng Yue, but she still smiled at her and motioned for Xiaohong to open the door.
This time, she did not enter the ancestral hall directly, but went to the main hall on the other side.
Here, simplicity makes people feel comfortable.
After the two sat down, Meng Yue took the lead in speaking:
"Does the queen know what I have called you for?"
The queen came this time, not as anxious as last time, she picked up the teacup in her hand and took a sip, and then whispered in a harmonious voice:
"You want to get out of the palace, but your brother will send someone to watch you......"
After saying this, she looked up at her with an inquiring look in her eyes.
Meng Yue turned the teacup in her hand with a suspicious face, and nodded admiringly,
"The queen is indeed an extremely intelligent woman, so will you help me?"
"I'm not trying to help you, I don't want to see Xena and her sister or sister meet on the battlefield and kill each other......"
After saying this, the queen raised her shrewd eyes and looked at Meng Yue, "That woman who looks exactly like Xena is also your daughter, right?" ”
She knew that there were some things that Meng Yue should say.
Sure enough, when Meng Yue heard her question, her cloudy eyes flashed with a tangled gaze, and then nodded abruptly,
"Well, I know that there are some things that you are curious about, and in that case, I don't want to hide anything from you anymore......"
After saying this, her deep gaze looked at the doorway, and continued with a vacant look in her eyes:
"Do you know my relationship with Mengxin? Actually, we're not brothers and sisters......"
Her words made the queen look at her with a stunned face, was she believed to be her own brother? She really didn't know about it.
Meng Yue looked at her very surprised, and smiled softly, "You definitely don't know, because this matter is only known to me in this world, and because of this, he has feelings for me, and I, in order to escape this relationship that makes me feel embarrassed, chose to leave the Chu State, and after a long journey, I arrived in the Daning Kingdom......"
Speaking of which, her memories go back more than twenty years ago.
At that time, she went to Daning Kingdom alone and came to Rongcheng, which was closer to Chu State, at that time she only thought that the farther away from Chu Country was better, and her daily leg strength was limited, so she decided to rest in Rongcheng for one night.
But before she could go to the inn, her money bag and baggage were stolen, and she was left on the streets with no relatives and no money.
In such a miserable situation, she was also targeted by a few thugs, and when those people were about to take her to the black alley to be bullied, a voice appeared out of thin air,
"Stop......"
The moment she looked up, she saw a man like a god appear in front of her, and the reason why she used these two words to describe it was because the man was wearing battle armor at that time, and he had just returned from the battle, and on the way back to the capital, he was temporarily staying in Rongcheng.
The man rescued her and gave her ten taels of silver, but before she could say a full word of thanks, he disappeared before her.
