Chapter 204 Mother Kills Grandson and Injures Daughter!
Meng Anxian's eyebrows were tightly furrowed as she looked at Meng Yanzhi with some confusion. She really couldn't understand how someone who used to be so afraid to even breathe in front of her could become so quick-witted and sharp-tongued.
"Of course, once we get married, we'll all be family. Why bother with these things?"
Xiao Ce answered first, giving Meng Anxian a warning look, telling her not to cause any more trouble.
The banquet finally came to a successful end. Meng Yanzhi didn't want to stay and get entangled in those messy affairs, so she was thinking of returning to the palace as soon as possible. Unexpectedly, Qingdao came over at this moment carrying the child and said, "Someone tried to assassinate the young master. The person has been captured by this servant."
What?
Meng Yanzhi was only on guard, but she never expected that she would actually be caught.
Her eyebrows furrowed tightly, then her expression changed, and she asked, "Who is it?"
Mother Meng's face also turned pale as she looked at the two men who were pressing down on her. Aunt Chen followed closely behind, weeping bitterly.
She knelt on the ground, clutching her father's clothes tightly, and choked out, "Grandpa, save us! Someone is trying to kill our son!"
"What on earth is going on?!"
"Investigate!"
Meng's father was originally overjoyed to have a son late in life, but when such a thing happened in his own home, he was naturally furious.
Meng Yanzhi had no interest in these matters. Now that the people had been captured, the truth would surely come out. As for herself, she should go back.
"Father, Mother, it will be too late if we don't go back to the palace soon. Your daughter is going back now!"
After Meng Yanzhi finished speaking, she turned to leave, but was stopped by her mother.
"Where are you going?"
"You're the one who caused all this trouble. What am I supposed to do if you just leave and refuse to go?"
Meng's mother frowned deeply, glaring at Meng Yanzhi through gritted teeth.
This daughter was born to be her enemy!
Upon hearing this, Meng Yanzhi immediately understood everything. She hesitated for a moment before saying, "Father, this matter is a family scandal. Let's talk about it later. For now, we should send everyone away."
At this point, Meng's father finally realized what was happening, hurriedly nodded, and turned around to arrange for them to see the guests off.
After everyone else had left, they went to the main hall.
"We're all family now. What exactly happened? Will you tell us yourself, or should I interrogate you?"
Having navigated the treacherous waters of officialdom for many years, how could Mencius' father not see who the culprit was? These words were meant for Mencius' mother.
Meng's mother's eyebrows furrowed tightly, and then she gritted her teeth and said, "Yes, I did it, but I did it all for the good of the Meng family. This child's origin is unknown; he was born outside the family, so I cannot acknowledge this child's bloodline!"
What?
Everyone was stunned when they heard this. Even Meng Yanzhi did not expect that her mother could say such a thing so confidently.
She frowned deeply, glanced at Aunt Chen beside her, and coughed.
Aunt Chen reacted instantly, hurriedly stepped forward, knelt on the ground and pleaded bitterly: "Please, my lord and mistress, have mercy! I don't want anything, I only want this child. Please, my lord, have mercy! This child is indeed of the bloodline of my Meng family!"
Before he could finish speaking, Meng's father slammed his fist on the table in anger and stared intently at Meng's mother.
"Whether this child belongs to the Meng family or not, you know perfectly well. Wang, you harmed many children in the past. Now that your son is so grown up, how can you still not tolerate a nursing baby!"
"After all these years, I've finally reached my breaking point. Do you believe I'll just divorce you?"
"Father, be careful what you say!"
Meng Yanzhi quickly knelt on the ground, somewhat anxiously.
Her eyebrows were tightly furrowed as she looked at her father, and she choked out, "Father, please calm down. I know that Mother must have been wrong in this matter, but Father, my sister is about to become the Crown Princess. If she has a mother who has been divorced, I'm afraid it will be... disgraceful. I wonder what people outside will say?"
Originally, Meng Anxian thought this matter had nothing to do with her, but she never expected it to be connected in this way.
She immediately knelt on the ground: "Yes, Father, please forgive Mother for the sake of your daughter and the Crown Prince. Besides, isn't my younger brother safe and sound now?"
"you!"
Meng's father clearly knew they were right, but he absolutely couldn't swallow this insult if they just let it go!
"Good, very good!"
"Since that's the case, I won't divorce my wife. From now on, I never want to see this wicked woman in my home again. Send her to the family temple immediately!"
With a single command from Meng's father, Meng's mother's future in the family was completely over.
Unfortunately, Mencius' mother made such a grave mistake that there was no way for her to plead for her son's life!
Suddenly, Meng's mother burst out laughing. Finally, her resentful gaze fell on Meng Yanzhi. Suddenly, she went berserk and rushed towards Meng Yanzhi, knocking her to the ground.
She pulled out the hairpin from her hair and plunged it viciously into Meng Yanzhi's shoulder.
"It's all your fault, it's all your fault! Go to hell, you bitch, go to hell!"
Qingdao reacted immediately, strode forward, kicked the person to the ground, quickly helped Meng Yanzhi up, and hurriedly asked, "Miss, are you alright?"
"You're insane!"
"Although Rouge didn't grow up by our side, she is still our biological daughter no matter what. How could you do such a thing? Are you crazy?!"
Meng's father looked at Meng's mother in disbelief, unable to believe that she would be so cruel to her own daughter.
"It's all her fault! She's a jinx! I haven't had a single good day since she came back. She deserves to die!"
"Haha, they should have died long ago!"
Suddenly, Mencius' mother's expression changed. She threw her head back and burst into laughter, becoming completely erratic.
"Quickly, summon the imperial physician!"
Aunt Chen finally realized what was happening. The physician arrived quickly and used great force. Even now, Meng's mother's hairpin was still embedded in Meng Yanzhi's shoulder, stuck in her flesh, and there was no way to remove it.
"Given the current situation, it seems we'll have to cut open the wound and remove the hairpin."
"But...but I can't!"
The physician knelt on the ground, his voice trembling slightly as he reported this!
At this, Qingdao's expression changed, and he immediately used the unique methods of the secret guards to send a message to the palace.
Within half an hour of the message being sent, the secret guards had already brought over the best imperial physicians in the palace.
The imperial physician was highly skilled and did not hesitate to cut open Meng Yanzhi's wound. He then immediately removed the gold hairpin. With this commotion, a lot of blood was lost, and Meng Yanzhi finally could not hold on any longer and fainted.
