Meng Jinyao had just left the private room and was about to go down the stairs when she suddenly saw a sneaky figure. She took a closer look and found that the person was her friend Princess Jingning. She was bending slightly and tiptoed to a private room. In front of the door, he put his ear against the door, as if he was preparing to eavesdrop on something.

Seeing this, Meng Jinyao was a little curious and walked over quietly.

When she walked in front of Princess Jingning, Princess Jingning also saw the three masters and servants. She quickly made a silent gesture to them, and then listened carefully to what was going on inside.

Meng Jinyao felt strange when she saw her like this, but she didn't say anything and just nodded lightly.

The next moment, the door of the elegant room suddenly opened. Princess Jingning was caught off guard, and she made a sound of "ah" and fell in.

Meng Jinyao was stunned. She subconsciously looked into the private room and saw a man wearing a silver mask standing at the door. He glanced at Princess Jingning who had fallen to the ground, and then looked at her again.

Seeing that it was them, the man took off his mask, revealing his handsome face. He was a young man about seventeen or eighteen years old.

Meng Jinyao looked at the man and felt that he looked very familiar. Where had she seen him before? Oh, yes, she remembered, it was Shen Yunzhou, the eldest son of Shen Guogong whom they rescued before.

Shen Yunzhou frowned slightly and asked, "What are you doing? You're being sneaky."

Princess Jingning got up from the ground, rolled her eyes at him, and said, "You are so sneaky. I want to ask you what you are doing. You have to wear a mask when going out. Why don't you wear it now?"

Shen Yunzhou glanced outside the door and replied, "Let's talk first."

Princess Jingning dragged Meng Jinyao and went in. Qingqiu and Ningdong were afraid that something would happen to their master, so they quickly followed her in.

Princess Jingning looked around after entering and saw no one. Then she glanced at the mask in Shen Yunzhou's hand and asked again: "Shen Yunzhou, why do you still wear a mask when you go out? It's not like you look shameful."

Shen Yunzhou looked magnanimous: "As I said before, it's inconvenient to show up now and let people know that I'm back in Beijing. What do you want to eat? I'll ask the waiter to bring some refreshments."

Hearing this, Princess Jingning lost interest and said, "I thought you were going to do something bad. We still have things to do, so we won't have tea and will leave first." As she said this, she dragged Meng Jinyao out.

After leaving the private room, Meng Jinyao asked curiously: "Ayan, what were you doing just now?"

Princess Jingning replied truthfully: "I saw that he was wearing a mask and was sneaky. I was curious and wanted to see what he was doing. He was going to meet someone so mysterious. I didn't expect that he was the only one inside."

A person?

Meng Jinyao frowned imperceptibly and thought to herself, no, those were two people. There were two teacups on the table. One of the teacups must belong to Shen Yunzhou. As for the other teacup, it belonged to someone else. It was probably when the door opened. At that moment, the man had already left through the window.

She asked warmly: "Ayan, you seem to be very concerned about Prince Shen?"

"Who cares about him?"

Princess Jingning curled her lips in disgust and hummed, "I just want to see if he is doing something shady by being so sneaky."

Meng Jinyao asked again: "He is wearing a mask, but you can't even see his face, how can you still recognize him?"

Princess Jingning replied: "After he returned to Beijing, apart from the time he was at Zhuangzi, plus today, I have seen him three times, and I recognized him as soon as he looked familiar."

Hearing this, Meng Jinyao looked at her deeply and did not dwell on the issue any more. Instead, she asked, "Why did you come out alone? Where is your maid?"

"It's easy to be exposed when there are many people, so I asked them to wait for me in the private room." Princess Jingning said, pulling her away, "Ayao, I didn't expect to run into you when I went out. Let's go to the private room to continue chatting. "

Meng Jinyao didn't have anything important to do. Since they met her, they would definitely get together and happily agree to follow her.

It’s no secret that the Meng family’s affairs have become a topic of conversation between people after dinner. Princess Jingning has naturally heard of it. She was a little curious about the stories about ghosts and gods, and couldn’t help but ask Meng Jinyao: “Ayao, do you think this world is really true? Is there a ghost?"

Meng Jinyao smiled: "If you believe it, there is it, if you don't believe it, it doesn't exist. Anyway, I have never seen it."

Princess Jingning nodded slightly: "That's true."

After saying that, she stopped worrying about the matter, looked at Meng Jinyao with her chin up, and continued gossiping with Meng Jinyao. When it came to Sun's two children, she clicked her tongue twice and said in disdain: "Then Sun really brought up a good pair of children. Sons and daughters, true white-eyed wolves, no matter what Mrs. Sun is, she is still their mother, and she has not sorry for them. However, after Ms. Sun passed away, they turned out to be so indifferent, which is really scary. "

Meng Jinyao smiled mockingly: "This is probably because the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked."

Mrs. Sun crashed to death in front of the Sun family. Such unlucky luck made the Sun family very angry. The Sun family did not want to collect the body, so they sent someone to notify Meng Jinyu and Meng Chengxing, but not only did their siblings not show up, they also did not send anyone to go there. To collect the body, it was right to assume that there was no mother like Sun.

Ever since, the Sun family was so angry that they just laid out a straw mat and a roll without buying a coffin. They just found a place to bury it and ended the matter hastily. I heard that they didn't even set up a tombstone, saying that the Sun family didn't want to recognize such a Sun family. The woman felt that it was embarrassing, even writing "Sun" on the tombstone felt like it was a disgrace to their family.

Princess Jingning suddenly said mysteriously: "Ayao, I suddenly believe in my oath. Those who swore that they would be struck by lightning if they broke their promises must also have been struck by lightning."

Meng Jinyao asked with a smile: "Is it possible that someone swore to you but failed to fulfill their promise in the end and was struck by lightning?"

"It wasn't that he was struck by lightning, he was dead."

Princess Jingning shook her head slightly and asked her, "Do you still remember our first encounter?"

Meng Jinyao nodded. She naturally remembered the first time they met. At that time, Ayan and Meng Jinyu were friends. She was foolishly deceived by Meng Jinyu and helped Meng Jinyu embarrass her. Later, Meng Jinyu tried to trip her and let her roll down the stairs, but she hid. After that, Meng Jinyu, who had stolen the chicken but failed to lose the rice, was dragged back to avoid being unjustly accused by Meng Jinyu of murdering her own sister.

Princess Jingning continued: "At that time, I actually had suspicions. I felt that she probably wanted to harm you, but she just said that you were angry and wanted to teach her a lesson. Seeing that I was half-believed, she also swore that if she lied, I would She wanted her mother to die miserably. I saw that she swore by her mother, so I believed her words."

Meng Jinyao was surprised: "Is there such a thing?"

Princess Jingning nodded and said: "Yes, otherwise I wouldn't have believed her words at that time. Who would swear by his mother? Now that her mother is really dead, I don't know if she regrets it. I swore on my mother back then.”

After hearing this, Meng Jinyao was silent for a while and said calmly: "Probably not, because she has probably forgotten the oath she made."

Princess Jingning was startled for a moment, then said, "That's true."
