Daughter Of Rebellious Minister

C45 Hold Hands and Wait for the Return to the Palace

After three days of comfortable life, Meng Zixian's wounds were healed and scarred. Furthermore, he had even gained a lot of weight. His face became redder, and he looked like a peeled egg, smooth and white.

"Young Lady Meng is raising it well today."

Meng Zixian was sitting in the yard with a pot of tea on the stone table and a dry pastry in one hand and a book in the other. He was about to stuff the pastry into his mouth when Gu Jingcheng's voice suddenly rang out.

She raised her head and looked at Gu Jingcheng with a slight smile.

In the past few days, Gu Jing Cheng had come a few times and the two of them had a talk with the books they were reading. Gu Jing City had come a few times and the two of them had a talk with the books they were reading. He had a good attitude towards Gu Jing Cheng.

"Look, Your Royal Highness, I found a wonderful place in this book this morning."

"Oh? This King is all ears. "

Although Meng Zixian addressed him respectfully, she was already used to it. She wouldn't bow when she saw Gu Jingcheng unless it was absolutely necessary. When it came to matters of interest, she even went up to him.

"The story in this book really has a turning point."

"This person was guilty of being a thief and wanted to be silenced, but was instead silenced. Then, the pursuer's trail was cut off and another bait appeared, which was given to the pursuer. The pursuer only caught a chess piece, but you say that the pursuer was very pitiful."

Meng Zixian shook her head. She hadn't finished reading the ending, but because of the wonderful plot, she couldn't help but feel that it was a pity.

"I've never read this book before. Since it's so interesting, I might as well take a look when I'm free."

After that, they chatted for a while before Gu Jing Cheng left because he had something to do.

The beauty from last time was indeed Gu Jing City's concubine after asking around.

Gu Jingcheng, as a prince, had been given a marriage ceremony when the late emperor was still alive. However, his main wife had died of ill health and had passed away early. Gu Jingcheng had also married a new wife.

Several times in a row, Gu Jingcheng's reputation as the bandit's wife was left behind.

The daughter of a good family refused to send others over. Gu Jingcheng refused to accept the concubine that was delivered to him. The only beauty in the backyard was called Miao Ling. She was one of the concubines that had been sent to him that had been lucky enough to survive until now.

In the past few days, Meng Zixian would often go to her place to sit, drink tea with her, and chat with her.

She looked very depressed, like a sickly beauty, but her temper was quite bad. She had no choice but to be sent to a concubine's room, but she was also a gentleman in Gu Jing City. She had nowhere to go, so he gave her shelter and freedom, but in the end, her freedom was limited.

In Jing King Manor, there weren't many servants that were able to see him. When the steward came looking for him, he was usually absent. Miao Ling stayed in the manor all day; she was bored and no one was allowed to speak.

Meng Zijing had come, and Miao Ling was very happy to see him. She started to talk a lot more.

She was once a member of the theater group, and the class owner treated her like his own daughter. He had traveled all over the country since young, and had been in the martial arts world for a while.

"Hey, how did this handkerchief come out?" Meng Zixian's interest was piqued, and he asked excitedly.

Miao Ling was good at juggling. Right now, she was showing Meng Zian how to turn one handkerchief into two, three, and countless items.

"Actually, it's quite simple. It's nothing more than a deceptive trick."

"It's the equivalent of using something else to attract someone else who is doing something else."

When Meng Zixian heard this, she stared in shock.

After that, it was as if someone had led her to Imperial Concubine Rong. Now that Imperial Concubine Rong was dead, and the person behind her was nowhere to be found, wouldn't another person come into her field of vision and change targets?

If one thought about it carefully, it was actually so astonishing.

"Zi Xian, are you okay?" Miao Ling extended her hand and gestured in front of her. Seeing that she did not respond, she gave a few more cries.

Meng Zixian came back to his senses and gave a dry laugh.

Miao Ling was about to say something when a maid ran over. Her head was covered with sweat and she was still gasping for breath. "Lady Meng, the King. The Prince invites you to the front hall."

"Since Your Highness is looking for you, then go." Miao Ling smiled gently as she watched Meng Zixian leave.

Meng Zixian walked straight to the front hall. Just as she was about to go in, she heard the sound of Song Qi River. She stopped and stood behind the screen.

"Meng Zixian stayed with you for a few days, it should be time for her to come with me, right?"

"How can I agree to having her grow her legs?"

"She is my chess piece!"

Meng Zixian, who was standing behind the screen, heard the words' chess piece '. Her face was as calm as water. If it wasn't for the poison in her body, she wouldn't have listened to Song Qishen's orders.

"Miss Meng is a chess piece, but a chess piece is a person. If you don't respect her by doing this, then it's no wonder she can run."

When Meng Zixian heard this, she felt that Gu Jingcheng's words were a bit of a schadenfreude, "She was originally my chess piece, but for some reason, she seemed to have changed. She was completely different from how she used to be, not listening to me."

"I've said it before, even chess pieces need respect."

Meng Zixian thought to himself.

"That day, you blamed her for nothing and blamed her wrongly. As a person, she shouldn't have felt too comfortable in her heart."

Song Que was silent. After a long time, he slowly said, "Indeed. After thinking about it for two days, I was wrong about this."

Meng Zixian's anger, which had been stuck in her heart all this time, suddenly disappeared. She really didn't want to apologize anymore.

"Even if you tell me now, it won't help."

The sound was getting closer and closer to her. Meng Zixian thought that Gu Jingcheng was going to call her out, but she still hadn't said that she would forgive Song Qishen and was ready to run away.

"Miss Meng is not in my residence. I don't know."

"How is this possible? "I've checked. It's in your residence."

What Meng Zixian didn't know was that the two men looked at each other. Gu Jingcheng didn't care about his expression, while Song Qishen's expression turned serious.

Gu Jingcheng acted as if it was the agreement. He protected her and didn't expose her existence, but Song Qi didn't believe it from the start and was about to rush to the backyard to find her.

Meng Zixian heard the noise in front and ran for his life. He even accidentally knocked over the screen.

Song Que looked at the corner of Gu Jingcheng's clothes and then at the stunned Gu Jingcheng. He pursed his lips and was speechless. He was ready to catch him.

Meng Zixian ran away and hid in a room filled with books. She was dressed simply and elegantly, and on the desk, there were all kinds of books and materials on the table.

She might have accidentally entered Gu Jing Cheng's study …

Before she could get a good look, the door opened and she ducked into the corner of the study.

As soon as Song Que walked in, Gu Jing Cheng caught up and stopped him: "I have too many things in my study. I haven't packed up yet, so let's go out."

"I just saw someone."

"Maybe a cat."

"Indeed, it could be a wild cat."

The two of them looked at each other and smiled.
