When that time comes, will they face the emperor's wrath or punishment? After all, if you look at it from a broader perspective, Meng Qi has now committed the crime of deceiving the emperor.
Zhou Yu listened to Meng Wan's soft words, forgetting to close his mouth. The look of disbelief seemed to petrify him. He almost stuttered to confirm again, "You, you, you said the princess is still alive?"
Meng Wan sighed and nodded. "Yes, the day before yesterday I accompanied Mother to one of her farms. It wasn't her dowry, but something she bought last summer. It was Yuan Yue who told me that the farm was ready and filled with flowers. My fourth sister had said before that she would take Mother and me there to stay for a while once the farm was finished. To ease Mother's longing for her, I took her there, but I didn't expect to see my fourth sister."
Zhou Yu patted his cheek lightly. "What's this idiot doing? What's she planning to do with all these novel ideas? No wonder, no wonder the emperor asked me this today. Oh, I'm afraid the emperor has discovered it?"
Meng Qi shook her head. "It's not that they discovered it, but there should be some signs or clues."
"What should I do? Wouldn't this be a crime of deceiving the emperor?" Zhou Yu was so anxious that he was spinning around.
"What on earth does the princess mean? If this was an accidental result, the emperor should have known it as soon as possible. If it was intentional, then she should have gone far away and never let the emperor know. Why does she still stick around under his nose? Go farther away and then secretly send a letter back to you or your mother-in-law. After a few years, everyone will have forgotten about her. Or she can just live in that farm and keep quiet. But letting you know her current situation so early puts us in a difficult position." Zhou Yu sighed and sat down, looking helpless.
When Meng Wan heard Zhou Yu say this, her eyes suddenly lit up. That's right, why hadn't she thought of this? The day before yesterday, she was so immersed in the joy of regaining what she had lost that she hadn't thought of this at all.
Seeing Meng Wan standing up, Zhou Yu hurried forward and said, "Be careful, or you might hurt my son."
Meng Wan patted his hand that was touching her belly and said, "Don't interrupt me. Your words reminded me of this."
"how?"
"I'll go again tomorrow," Meng Wan said, "I have to find out what she really wants."
The emperor asked Zhou Yu this question. No matter what he knew or what he wanted to trick out of him, one thing is certain: he still has feelings for Meng Qi, and he hopes that Meng Qi will appear in front of him. That's good.
Therefore, she needed to clarify Meng Qi's meaning. Zhou Yu was right. This matter could be big or small. If something goes wrong, everyone would be implicated.
------
Meng Qi was very happy that day. First, Yuan Dong appeared in front of her. Looking at Yuan Dong who was crying so hard that she was out of breath, tears also flowed from the corners of Meng Qi's eyes.
"This slave girl, this slave girl thought you, you... Yuanyue, pinch me again, I really am not dreaming?"
Yuan Yue's eyes were slightly moist, "Don't pinch me anymore, you just pinched my arm until it turned red."
"Get up quickly. I had asked Shitou to pick you up from the palace a long time ago, but I didn't expect you to go to the palace instead." Meng Qi held Yuan Dong's hand.
"Yes, the Emperor had me move all your things from Qin Garden to the East Side Hall of Kunning Palace. A few days ago, everything was put away, and I told Eunuch Zhang I missed home. Then the Emperor summoned me and asked if I was going back to the Meng family or to look for my sister. I said I was going to look for my sister. The Emperor rewarded me with many things, including this."
Yuan Dong took out her purse and poured out a jade pendant. "The emperor said that if you encounter any problems in the future, just take this and go to the palace to find him."
Meng Qi was a little surprised. She recognized that the jade pendant was the one Song Chengze occasionally wore. He actually gave it to his maid and told Yuan Dong that she could come to him if she had any problems?
"What else did he say?" Meng Qi's mood became depressed.
Yuan Dong sighed. As Meng Qi's most capable and intelligent maid, how could she not see her master's thoughts? And the deep affection the emperor always had when he looked at Meng Qi.
