and son

Meng Chuji couldn't hide his ugly face for a moment, and his breathing became unsteady: "You are crazy, you are making fun of the war between the two countries!"

Pei Jing became more and more sure that he was going to leave, she still felt a little impulsive when she stood out and said such a sentence, but now she didn't regret it at all.

"Are you kidding me? You also came here to make a marriage. Don't you understand the meaning of a marriage? I don't care what you said or did with Grandma Huang. If you leave, I will start a war with Da Chu, so—— Don't let me down."

He bit down the word "start war" especially hard, seeing Meng Chuji's expression frozen to the extreme, he clenched his fists tightly.

And when Meng Chuji finally broke down, seeing his eyes full of despair, his heart ached, he hugged him, and begged in a low voice: "What's wrong with me, you just say it. You know clearly If you are tempted by me, I feel that you are tempted by me. Why did you leave? What Grandma Huang said, what she said doesn’t count, what I say counts. It doesn’t matter if you can’t have children. I don’t care. Let's go, okay?"

Meng Chuji let him hold her, his heart was broken into pieces, his hand had already penetrated into his sleeve and touched the edge of the Yizhi, but he didn't have the courage to take it out.

Because of Pei Jing's threat, and even more because of Pei Jing's begging.

Take it easy.

Take it easy.

The Empress Dowager passed away not long ago, Pei Jing was in a sad time, how could he still bear his blow, at least wait for the Empress Dowager to finish her funeral, and wait for him to be calmer.

"Qiu Yu."

He gave a soft cry.

Pei Jing raised her eyes and stared at him steadfastly. Meng Chuji lowered her eyelashes and said slowly, "Don't think too much, I didn't say I was leaving."

Pei Jing was ecstatic, hugged his arms tightly, and after a while, Meng Chuji said: "Qiu Yu, I'm a little tired, can I go home to rest?"

Pei Jing quickly let go of him, held his face and kissed his forehead, "Okay, I'll let the manager take you back, you wait for me in the mansion, I'll be back tomorrow night."

Meng Chuji nodded and followed the manager back home.

Back in his room, Meng Chuji pulled Yizhi out of his sleeve, fixedly stared at the content on it, and stuffed it into the basket containing the script for a while.

The struggle and determination of these days have all come to naught.

He was not as brave as he thought.

Meng Chuji collapsed on the bed, and closed his eyes in a daze.

In accordance with the Queen Mother's last words, her funeral should not be too cumbersome and complicated, and she will be buried for three days after her coffin, so that she can go to see the late emperor early.

Three days later, the coffin will be brought into the imperial mausoleum to be buried with the late emperor.

All the relatives of the royal family were present. Although the king of Zhennan was a foreign relative, he was named king because of his entanglement, and he was also present at the funeral ceremony.

Zhennan Wang was quite sincere, Shangguanting searched around, but quietly retreated from the team without finding Meng Chuji.

Taking care not to be noticed, Shangguan Ting went to the gate of the palace, where an eunuch was waiting.

"The county lord."

Afraid of being discovered, the eunuch looked around and called out anxiously.

Shangguan Ting ordered in a low voice: "Accord to the plan."

The eunuch bowed: "Yes."

Shangguan Ting stuffed him with an ingot of gold.

The eunuch didn't take the gold, but said very uneasy: "Princess, you promised the servant..."

"Don't worry, as long as you behave obediently, the princess will save your sister from the clutches of King Yun."

Shangguan Ting's tone was indifferent, without any emotion.

The eunuch Kancai accepted the gold and left with confidence.

Shangguan Ting saw that he was walking away, but she still stood there, her red lips curled up for a long time, showing a sneer.

She wants to see how he escaped this disaster.

……

Pei Jing didn't come back, and Meng Chuji "raised the baby" in the mansion.

He didn't attend the Empress Dowager's funeral, and if he didn't find an excuse, he would be criticized. Pei Jing made up an excuse of being pregnant, which was corny but extremely useful.

People who are pregnant should not attend funerals, because it is rumored that children will absorb Yin Qi, and they will easily be freaks when they are born.

Meng Chuji was bored and had no interest in playing Pai Gow, so he was archery alone in the archery room.

There were not many arrows inserted into the target, most of them were scattered on the ground. He loosened the bowstring casually, regardless of whether the shot was accurate or not, he just wanted to vent his anger.

Suddenly, the steward announced from outside: "Your Majesty, someone is coming from the palace."

As soon as Meng Chuji's arrow stopped, he threw the bow out, and when he opened the door, he saw an eunuch standing beside the manager.

This eunuch Meng Chuji was very familiar, he often saw him by Pei Jing's side, and occasionally Pei Jing would send him to summon him for something.

Meng Chuji asked: "What's the matter?"

The eunuch bowed his head respectfully and said: "Your Majesty, Your Highness wants you to enter the palace."

Meng Chuji frowned, "When entering the palace at this time, isn't Qiu Yu delivering the funeral for Grandma?"

The funeral etiquette is also very troublesome, so it's over so soon?

Otherwise, he couldn't think of what Pei Jing wanted him to do.

Holding the fly whisk, the little eunuch buried his head even lower: "Your Highness only gave orders, but did not explain anything, but it seems that His Highness is in a hurry."

Meng Chuji thought for a moment, then agreed: "Okay, I'll enter the palace right away."

The little eunuch turned around and led the way in small steps.

Sitting in the carriage, the carriage swayed into the palace. On the way, Meng Chuji casually asked the little eunuch a few words, but the little eunuch didn't know what to do.

Meng Chuji always felt that something was wrong, but after thinking about it, now is the time when he is sensitive, and the two who have hatred against him will not be so bold as to pick such a time to strike, so he dispelled his doubts again.

Probably Pei Jing really has something to do with him.

Thinking this way, Meng Chuji followed the little eunuch, but the more he walked, the more remote, Meng Chuji's pace became slower and slower, and finally stopped.

"Where do you want to take me?"

Meng Chuji's voice was cold.

The little eunuch showed a trembling look: "It's right in front, His Highness ordered the slaves so."

It would be foolish for Meng Chuji to believe him again, he looked at him coldly, and said, "It wasn't Qiu Yu who summoned me at all, who instigated you?"

Then the little eunuch raised his head and said, "Your Majesty, don't blame the servant, the servant is forced to do so."

Meng Chuji snorted, turned around and was about to leave, but before he could turn his back, the shadow shrouded his back, a sap was struck, all consciousness was forcibly cut off in an instant, and his eyes fell into darkness.

"The county lord."

The little eunuch called out.

Shangguan Ting, who appeared from behind the tree leisurely, glanced at Meng Chuji who was on the ground, and praised: "Good job."

The little eunuch said happily: "The slave's younger sister..."

Before he finished speaking, another figure came out from behind the tree and pushed the wheelchair to Shangguan Ting's side. The little eunuch's eyes were wide open, and his blood was cold.

Shangguan Ting said: "Get rid of this slave, hurting the Crown Princess is a capital crime, and witnesses cannot be kept."

Hearing this, the little eunuch ran away, knocked Meng Chuji's bodyguard unconscious, and chased after him in two steps, killing him with a sword.

Then, Shangguan Ting looked at Pei Xian, who was sitting in a wheelchair, with a gentle and vicious smile: "His Royal Highness, if you have grievances, you have revenge, you have to hurry up."
