Chapter 13
"Wang Gonggong, please wait a moment, I will send someone to call my daughter out." Knowing that this would be Du Ting's intention to withdraw the engagement, Meng Hao ordered the housekeeper to call her in Du Ting's yard.

Seeing that the imperial decree finally came, Du Ting found a bamboo hat and took it out of the yard.After Du Ting came out, the general's family and the servants present all knelt on the ground and waited for the edict to be read by the prince.

Seeing that Du Ting was wearing a bamboo hat, he didn't insist on letting her take it off. He knew about Du Ting's disfigurement and didn't want to see that face.

"By God's blessing, the emperor ordered that there is a daughter Meng Zitong who was originally married to the wife of the third prince Zhao Wenxuan, but now she is not allowed to marry into the royal family because of a serious disease and her face is damaged. , a hundred pieces of silk, and a box of East Sea pearls, hereby.”

After reading the imperial edict, the prince folded it and handed it to Du Ting with both hands: "Miss Meng, please accept the edict."

"My daughter accepts the order, thank you Your Majesty!" Du Ting had no choice but to thank her, although it was an infuriating thing. Thinking about the ancient feudal thinking that "the king wants the minister to die, but the minister should not die and be unfaithful", it is also very helpless.

The little eunuch behind Wang Gonggong put down the things given by the emperor one by one and was about to leave. The general's wife asked someone to give Wang Gonggong a piece of silver to send him away, and then ordered the people to put the things into Du Ting's yard.

"Tong'er, what are your future plans?" Mrs. Meng said worriedly as the family returned to Du Ting's yard, looking at her daughter wearing a bamboo hat.

"After all, it is disgraceful for a woman to be divorced anyway, and your future marriage may be even more difficult."

"Mother, my daughter is not married anymore, she will be with you and daddy for the rest of her life, and will never leave you for the rest of her life!"

Whether or not to marry is the original owner's business, and naturally it will be decided by herself after she leaves the original owner.

"Hmph, if you ask me to say that marrying such a person is really better than not marrying for the rest of my life. I, Meng Hao, can still raise a daughter."

Thinking of Zhao Wenxuan's actions, the general was very angry, "But don't worry Tong'er, Daddy will keep an eye on you in the army, and he will definitely find you a husband who is both civil and military."

"Daddy, let's not talk about this matter for now. After retiring, Zhao Wenxuan will definitely worry about your revenge. I'm afraid Daddy will be in danger at that time, and since he has planted Huan'er by my side these years, I'm afraid there are still people from him in the General's Mansion , we must take more precautions.”

Next, Zhao Wenxuan framed the general for collaborating with the enemy, but Du Ting didn't know how he put the forged letter in the general's study.

In recent years, Meng Hao has already made great achievements, so in the case of Zhao Wenxuan's framed general, even though the emperor knew that the general was framed, he still ordered to destroy the general's family.

"Although Daddy's skill is not as good as some masters in the Jianghu, he is not easy to get hurt, Tonger don't have to worry." The general listened to Du Ting's words and didn't take it seriously.

"I'm not afraid of assassination, but I'm afraid that he will frame Daddy. Daddy guards the frontier every winter. If he framed you and collaborated with the enemy, you may not believe it if you just show some evidence."

Seeing that Meng Hao was disapproving, Du Ting had no choice but to point out the matter so that the general could take precautions.

"That's true. The emperor's attitude towards the Meng family has indeed changed over the years. If there is evidence that I am collaborating with the enemy, the emperor may plan to get rid of me."

Hearing Du Ting's worry, the general frowned and thought about it. He knew that once this happened, the consequences would be disastrous.

"I will draw people's attention. Recently, the servants in the mansion will be thoroughly investigated. There is no need for some Beppu's eyeliner." The general secretly made a decision.

In the next period of time, the Meng Mansion began to conduct the most rigorous review of the servants.Basically, everything about every servant from birth to entry into the Meng Mansion was found out, and Mrs. Meng sold some people whose origins were unknown.

Du Ting still continued to practice her kung fu, and now she was able to fight against several grown men, and in Meng Hao's words, even in the army, she could be compared to the captain of a hundred-man squad.

People in all the prefectures in the capital felt the tense atmosphere in the General's Mansion during this time. Their people in the General's Mansion were all dealt with, and they didn't know what Meng Hao was going to do.

And Zhao Wenxuan also took action after hearing the news. When the person who secretly released the letter was caught, no one wanted to believe that she did it.

"Yufei, why do you want to help the evildoers? Do you know the consequences of doing so?"

Meng Yufei is the daughter of Meng Hao's younger brother Meng Xiao, and she is the only sister in the entire Meng family who has a good relationship with Meng Zitong.

"I like the third prince, what's wrong with that? My sister had an engagement with the third prince before, so I didn't think about it, but now that you have canceled the engagement, I naturally want to fight," Meng Yufei knelt on the ground and raised her head stubbornly Looking at Du Ting.

"Sister, the third prince doesn't like you. He said that the person he likes is me, and it's your existence that prevents him from being with the person he likes. I had to avoid the third prince as much as possible because of my sisterhood. Now that you have broken the engagement, the third prince said that as long as I put the things in the uncle's study, he will ask the emperor to marry me."

"Do you know what the third prince asked you to release?" Seeing Meng Yufei immersed in the lies of happiness and unable to extricate herself from it, Meng Hao was very angry and mourned her misfortune, and threw the letter in front of Meng Yufei.

"Once these things are seen, the entire Meng family will be wiped out. Will the third prince rescue you and marry you? Why don't you think about why your sister was disfigured and why she was divorced!"

Meng Yufei picked up the letters on the ground with trembling hands, opened one and read it. It was about the secret deal between her uncle and Jin Guo. She knew she had been fooled but did not want to believe it. Fortunately, she opened the rest of the letters and found a thick There was a pile of these things, so I had to believe that I couldn't bear it for a while and passed out.

Du Ting ordered someone to carry Meng Yufei to her room, and then discussed with the general how to deal with it.

"Daddy, my daughter thinks that these letters don't need to be destroyed. Look carefully. Although these handwritings are very similar to yours, they can be mistaken for real, but there is one problem that has been ignored." Du Ting opened all the letters together and pointed at each other. said the general.

"So many letters started five years ago, but even though the handwriting has been processed, it can still be seen that they were written recently. Why don't we take the initiative to hand over the letters to the emperor and sue Zhao Wenxuan."

What Meng Hao meant was to burn the letter. It would be fine if no evidence could be found at that time, but Du Ting didn't think so. What she wanted to do was to make Zhao Wenxuan get the punishment he deserved.

And this matter can be cooperated with Prince Zhao Wenzhuo, Zhao Wenxuan didn't know that the Prince had already admitted to open the gold mine privately, and sued him as soon as he returned to Beijing.

Although there was no loss, there was also resentment towards Zhao Wenxuan, otherwise Zhao Wenxuan was troublesome, why would he hand over the gold mine.With this opportunity, the crown prince must be willing to help and let Zhao Wenxuan be punished.
