The empress is pregnant, and the emperor's incense continues

Mrs. Wei stopped talking and closed her eyes to rest.

The carriage stopped at the side entrance of the Zhenguo Palace. Mrs. Wei changed into a sedan chair and entered the inner courtyard.

Meng Yuanchu was stopped outside the door. She asked Mrs. Ma inexplicably: "What did I say that made my mother angry? Why didn't she even let me in?"

Mrs. Ma didn't know what the Duke and his wife wanted to do with this operation. Maybe the couple would forgive their daughter in a few days.

He took a step forward and advised: "Princess, please go back first. The old slave looks at Madam and she looks wrong. Maybe she will be better in a few days, and then she will think of Princess."

Meng Yuanchu also felt that his mother was not in good spirits due to her illness, so we should discuss it in a few days.

When Mrs. Wei returned to the house, Duke Zhenguo and Prince Meng came over together and asked her, "What did Yao'er say?"

Mrs. Wei fell silent, her silence at this moment was deafening.

Meng Shizi felt that Meng Wenyao might have lost her temper because her mother had been partial in the past, and she had some troubles.

"Mom, I watched my sister grow up. My sister is not a grudge-bearing person. You must have gone too far these few times. My sister has not turned around for a while. She will be fine after a while."

Duke Zhen Guo thought long-term. He knew that Meng Wenyao could become the queen not only because of the Queen Mother. The Emperor was not someone who listened to the Queen Mother in everything. Otherwise, the Queen Mother's nieces would have already entered the Emperor's harem.

Thinking of his daughter's behavior during the plague, Duke Zhen felt that this daughter was by no means as docile and well-behaved as she behaved in the palace.

Now, is her daughter's attitude toward Mrs. Wei just a complaint against Mrs. Wei, or is she complaining about the Duke's government as well?

This Meng Yuanchu is really a failure. Every time he thinks of this, the Duke of Zhen can slap himself in the face with hatred. He has a good family, which makes him feel hot and messed up.

After watching Mrs. Wei take the medicine, Duke Zhen took Prince Meng to the study.

"Son, do you think Yao'er will hate our whole family?"

Meng Shizi almost spit out his tea: "No way, father, you are overthinking, Yao'er is not that kind of person."

Duke Zhen Guo shook his head, still a little unsure, and wanted to test it out tomorrow, lest the whole family turn against each other because of Mrs. Wei's manipulations.

As soon as Duke Zhen Guo comforted himself, Prince Meng suddenly said: "Dad, why don't we find another girl and tell her that Meng Yuanchu also made a mistake, so that we have nothing to do with Meng Yuanchu."

"Isn't it enough for you to think that the Duke of our country is making a fool of himself?"

The father and son did not discuss the matter for a long time and came out. After the morning court the next day, the Duke of Zhenguo asked to see Meng Wenyao.

Meng Wenyao accompanied Duke Zhen for a walk in the Imperial Garden.

"What does the father want from his daughter today? But the mother is not well?"

Zheng Guozheng hesitated and didn't know how to start the topic, so Meng Wenyao asked the topic in one sentence.

"Your mother is still the same. Your mother said something yesterday that annoyed you. I think she looked very bad when she went back."

Meng Wenyao turned to look at Duke Zhen Guo. Could it be that his father came here today just for this matter? In the memory of the original owner, although her father loved her very much, he never cared about the affairs of the inner house. Could it be that he was so concerned about her now because she became the queen.

This was probably the case, otherwise her father would not have taken the initiative to take care of her when she suffered a lot of injustice in the house.

Meng Wenyao sighed in her heart. Yesterday she made a decision with her mother, and today she has to face up to her relationship with her father again.

This is not only her adoptive father, but also an important minister of the imperial court. It is best if he can maintain a good relationship. Otherwise, wouldn't he push Zhen Guo Gong and his family to Prince Jing's Mansion?

After thinking about this, Meng Wenyao's face darkened, and she said depressedly: "Father also knows that my mother has not been interested in seeing me since she was a child. Yesterday she suddenly came here to make up for the years of mother-daughter love. To be honest, the time when my daughter needs her mother has passed. Now she is here when she is not needed, and my daughter really doesn’t know how to get along with her, so she just tells her mother that it is the same as before.”

These are all the truth. Duke Zhen Guo nodded to express his understanding and said tentatively: "My father is often absent from the house and I have wronged you. Do you resent your father?"

Meng Wenyao raised her head and smiled as brightly as she could.

"Except for my grandmother, my father is the one who loves me the most in this world. If I even resent my father, where can I find such a good father? When my father said this, he thought his daughter was too stingy."

Duke Zhen Guo took a long breath and felt relieved. Fortunately, Yao'er only hated Mrs. Wei and still had feelings for Duke Guo's Mansion. He was relieved.

"How is the emperor treating you well?"

"Okay, the Queen Mother comes here every day to beat the Emperor. If the Emperor tries to show off to his daughter, the daughter will turn around and complain to the Queen Mother. The Emperor will be a little afraid of his daughter."

"Hahaha, you! You are indeed my daughter. You can't suffer any loss at all."

The father and daughter talked and laughed happily, and their relationship was as close as ever.

Meng Wenyao thought of Meng Yuanchu again. This was a time bomb. If something was revealed, the government would be responsible for it.

"Father, what are your plans for Meng Yuanchu's matter?"

The Duke of Zhenguo originally wanted to keep it a secret, but he must not let the emperor know, otherwise he would not be able to escape the crime of deceiving the emperor.

Now I hear Meng Wenyao say that since she has such a good relationship with the emperor, it is better for her to tell the emperor that if anything happens in the future, it will be considered as reported to the emperor.

"This is all because my father didn't think it through properly at the time, which is why so many troubles happened. Now that my father is determined to terminate the father-daughter relationship with her, but he is worried about hitting King Jing in the face, I really don't know what to do for a moment?"

"You can slap Prince Jing in the face if you want. What's the big deal? It's not that our family deliberately deceived him in the first place. It was because he had a bad intention and left his serious fiancée to seduce Meng Yuanchu. Now he is just asking for trouble."

With Meng Wenyao's words, Duke Zhen Guo felt more confident and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I still need to tell you in advance that as for the termination of the father-daughter relationship with Meng Yuanchu, I will think of a clever way for my father."

"Okay, I'll tell you where your Majesty is."

This was exactly what the Duke of Zhen wanted, and the father and daughter ended their conversation happily.

As night fell and the lanterns began to turn on, Meng Wenyao lay on the emperor's chest and drew circles.

"Your Majesty, I will tell you a new story today."

The emperor had been listening to the story of a monk and a nun having an affair for three days. Regarding Meng Wenyao's inappropriate stories, he instinctively wanted to block his ears, but he couldn't help but listen out of curiosity.

"Stop talking about monks and nuns, I don't want to hear it."

Meng Wenyao snickered and said softly: "Tonight we will listen to the story of the prince and the princess."

Meng Wenyao started from when Mrs. Wei returned to her hometown to worship her ancestors, and ended now when the Duke of Zhen planned to terminate the relationship with Meng Yuanchu.

The emperor was silent for a long time after hearing this. He had known this for a long time, and now that Duke Zhen was telling him through Meng Wenyao, he just wanted to ask for forgiveness.

If in the past, Duke Zhen had made such a big mistake and allowed King Jing to marry such a woman as his concubine, he might have punished him, but now! The more miserable King Jing is, the happier he is.
