The system swore solemnly, "Host, you should trust the system and its items."
After receiving a positive answer, her expression finally looked better.
"What's wrong?" Li Changheng frowned at Meng Tian's face. "You looked strange when you heard that Concubine Shu was pregnant."
"Heng Lang." Meng Tian quickly threw herself into his arms with a distressed look on her face. "I'm worried about you. According to our original plan, that position should have been... but now Tu Qingyu is pregnant."
Speaking of this, Li Changheng's face also looked a little ugly.
Meng Tian continued, "Henglang, we can't let her give birth to the child."
"Oh?" Li Changheng pulled away from them, his eyes filled with surprise. "You actually think so?"
He had always thought that Meng Tian was a very weak woman. Even if she had some ambitions and goals in her heart, she would pursue them step by step.
This was the first time he saw Meng Tian so anxious, so... vicious, even saying that she wanted to kill a baby still in her womb.
Seeing the inquiry in his eyes, Meng Tian felt a moment of panic in her heart. After all, she was too anxious.
But she quickly adjusted her mindset, tears welling in her eyes. "Heng Lang? Why are you looking at me like that?"
Before Li Changheng could speak, she continued, "Am I being too vicious?"
"But Henglang, if she really gave birth to the child, then your great cause... Henglang, even if you think I'm cruel, I still have to consider you..."
She said that she was cruel, but every word she said was, look, a weak and kind woman like me would do this for you, all because I love you.
Li Changheng looked at her tears and his heart softened.
He raised his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, "Don't cry, I will do a good job of this kind of thing, you don't need to worry, just enjoy yourself."
"No." She grabbed his hand and shook her head. "I want to do something for you. You know, I've never been the kind of woman who would just hide behind you and cry. I want to stand shoulder to shoulder with you."
She thought these words would definitely make men feel that she was different from other girls, that they would be impressed and love her even more.
But no, she raised her eyes and saw a dark look in the man's eyes.
When she looked over, he slowly smiled, his smile was doting and gentle.
"Indeed, I know that you are different from other women, and only you are worthy of standing by my side."
After that, he pulled her into his arms and whispered, "Tiantian, it's so good to have you around."
He thought of the blueprint that Meng Tian had given him. It was a blueprint for an improved crossbow, which he had someone make and was extremely powerful.
At that time, he sent many gifts to express his gratitude and expressed his shock at the power of the crossbow.
But she didn't think the crossbow was that powerful. It was obvious that she had something more powerful in her hands.
If he could get everything she had...
Leaning in his arms, Meng Tian felt relieved.
But the other party's next words made her heart jump again.
"Tomorrow I will ask my father to ask His Majesty to grant us a marriage, so that you can marry into the family and become the Crown Prince's consort. Is that okay?"
It would be difficult to be the Crown Prince's wife, at most she could be a concubine. But he would not tell this to Meng Tian. When the emperor issued an edict, could she still disobey it and refuse to marry?
His hand stroked her back again and again, his mind full of thoughts, and he thought of her caution again.
If you are still unwilling to give out the rest after such a long time, it must be because you haven't got what you wanted.
All she wanted was the position of Crown Prince's Consort.
In his eyes, no matter whether she was a concubine or a concubine, he was her husband.
Once a woman gets married, she will always be loyal to her husband.
The main wife... He needs a main wife of higher status to help him, preferably one who has military power under his father's hands.
He had a good plan, but Meng Tian rejected his proposal.
"Heng Lang." She tugged at his sleeve and raised her head, "Wait a little longer."
"Why? You don't want to?"
"How could that be? I dream of marrying Heng Lang."
"Then what are you waiting for?"
"I want to do it for the prince because of the child in Tu Qingyu's belly. If this is successful, we will get married. If the matter is exposed... Tiantian doesn't want to implicate the prince."
"You don't have to..."
"Yes, in Tiantian's heart, you and I have long been husband and wife, husband and wife are one, and Tiantian should do anything for Henglang."
Li Changheng was silent for a moment and did not try to persuade him. He just asked, "What do you need me to do?"
It's not that he didn't want to get rid of Concubine Shu's child. Not only him, he believed that anyone in the royal family who had the hope of being adopted by His Majesty had this idea, and some had even taken action.
But Your Majesty really protects people too closely. It has been so long, and many people in the royal family have disappeared, but that Concubine Shu is not hurt at all.
He thought, perhaps the woman would have a different way.
What if it really happened to Meng Tian?
If she really succeeded, then everything would be fine. If unfortunately it was exposed, he would not be implicated.
At that time, he would try his best to protect it. If he could protect it, he could take this opportunity to capture the person. How could she not give him the drawings in the future?
Meng Tian thought for a moment and said, "My Lord, please help me find if Tu Qingyu still has any relatives alive, preferably female relatives."
Li Changheng's eyes lit up. Yes, Concubine Shu rarely sees people nowadays, but what if she wants to see her relatives?
It was also easier for female relatives to enter the palace.
He lifted Meng Tian's chin and kissed her fiercely. After the kiss, he said happily, "Tiantian is indeed the most intelligent woman in the world."
"Okay, I'll send someone to find it right away!"
Tu Qingyu watched another 'conspiracy', and Dabao curled his lips, "You still want to see me, Master? Tsk, not in the next life."
"No." Tu Qingyu shook his head slowly, "Since she wants to see me, then give her the opportunity."
How can you watch the other party make mistakes and seek death if you don't give them any chance at all?
Dabao quickly understood what Tu Qingyu meant, "So what should we do then?"
"Why are you so nervous? Let's see who they are looking for and what tricks they will come up with." Now, unless she is a Daluo Jinxian, who can make her suffer?
She soon found out which relative they had found.
In the Shangshu Mansion, Meng Tian sat on a high seat and looked at the girl kneeling on the ground with contempt.
The girl was about fifteen or sixteen years old. She wore a bright red silk flower, a green coat, and a pair of pink shoes, which made her look a little funny.
"Are you Tu Qingyu's cousin?" How unsophisticated.
"In reply to your question, I do have a cousin named Tu Qingyu, but I only met her once when I was a child and have never seen her since then."
"The noble man asked me to come here. It's my cousin... Did she do something wrong?" She looked up at Meng Tian at the upper seat, her eyes full of cautious inquiry.
Why did she hear that her cousin married an official and was now an official's wife? Shouldn't anything happen to her that would implicate her cousins?
