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

"There is no inconvenience, you can just live here."

Chu Yuanfeng sincerely wanted to give Meng Wenyao a place to go, but Meng Wenyao understood and thought that Chu Yuanfeng was just saying a few polite words. She smiled and refused again: "I have already been rescued by the prince, how dare you continue to trouble the prince? , a girl from the slave family has lived here for a long time, and if word spreads about it, it will be detrimental to the reputation of the prince, so the slave family has to bid farewell to the prince again."

It was obvious that Meng Wenyao wanted to leave. Chu Yuanfeng had no other thoughts besides worrying that Meng Wenyao had nowhere to go and would be sold out again. Seeing Meng Wenyao's determination to leave, Chu Yuanfeng suddenly understood: "You are Are you going to find Lin Shuyang?"

"Who is Lin Shuyang?" Meng Wenyao's face was full of questions.

"That's the young master who came here just now. I heard that he wants to recognize you as his god-sister. I see that you even wrote a letter to him."

This is a bit unclear. Meng Wenyao, the brother and sister, has no idea at all. It is all Lin Shuyang's own nonsense. As for the letter, Meng Wenyao doesn't want anyone else to know. It is not a glorious thing.

She hesitated how to explain, letting Chu Yuanfeng understand that she only really wanted to leave, not hook up with his brother from him.

"Actually, the slave family..."

She was still thinking about her words when she heard another female voice coming from the Moon Cave Gate: "Cousin, you are indeed here."

Meng Wenyao turned around and saw a woman with gorgeous clothes and proud manner approaching.

She looked at Chu Yuanfeng with eyes full of nostalgia and resentment. Meng Wenyao let out a breath and thought, it's over now, I'm afraid there will be a misunderstanding.

Sure enough, just after she spat it out, the woman spoke: "They said that my cousin kept an outhouse in another courtyard. I thought they were joking. Who doesn't know that my cousin is not a womanizer? I didn't expect it. It’s actually true.”

After saying that, the woman took her glasses and glanced at Meng Wenyao from top to bottom, with disdain in her eyes, but a smile on her face.

"My aunt arranged so many roommates for my cousin, but my cousin didn't like any of them. It turns out that my cousin likes this."

Chu Yuanfeng stood between the two of them, quietly playing with a string of jade stones in his hand, as if he didn't hear the woman's sarcasm, but he could pretend not to hear it, because he was the heir apparent of Nan'an Palace.

But Meng Wenyao couldn't pretend not to hear. To put it mildly, this would ruin Meng Wenyao's reputation, although she didn't care.

Speaking more seriously, this woman is not someone to be trifled with at first glance. Meng Wenyao is a merchant girl, so it would be better for her to make fewer enemies for herself.

Since Chu Yuanfeng didn't want to explain, Meng Wenyao stepped forward and explained: "This girl misunderstood...ah..."

As soon as he took a step forward, he accidentally stepped on a stone, slipped and almost fell, but fortunately, Chu Yuanfeng caught it smoothly.

However, in front of the woman, I was afraid that it would be difficult to explain clearly with such a hug. Meng Wenyao struggled to get up and explain again.

"You're such a grown-up, you can't walk steadily. Have you sprained your foot?"

Such a doting voice was actually coming from Chu Yuanfeng. Meng Wenyao couldn't believe her ears. She opened and closed her mouth without knowing what to say. Is this Chu Yuanfeng's brain broken?

The woman who was just now was even more shocked than her. It was like she had seen a ghost. It took her a long time to find her voice: "Cousin..."

When this sound came out, she started to cry a little, and those who didn't know thought it was her who almost fell down.

However, Chu Yuanfeng seemed not to hear it at all. He continued to look at Meng Wenyao dotingly and said softly: "Let me show you."

After saying that, he picked up Meng Wenyao and placed her against the beauty in the pavilion. Under the gaze of the woman, he squatted down and began to take off Meng Wenyao's shoes and socks.

Although Meng Wenyao was not an ancient woman, she still felt quite embarrassed when a man held her feet and took off her shoes. She struggled and tried to pull her feet out. Unexpectedly, Chu Yuanfeng's big palm only exerted slight force, and Meng Wenyao could no longer struggle. .

The woman just watched in bewilderment as Chu Yuanfeng helped Meng Wenyao take off her shoes and socks, and then saw the big bronze hands rubbing Meng Wenyao's snow-white feet. Her tears flowed out unsatisfactorily, and then she turned around and cried. Ran.

Now Meng Wenyao understood that Chu Yuanfeng didn't like this cousin at all and was simply using Meng Wenyao as a shield.

Now that the man is angry, in the future, will Meng Wenyao be retaliated by this woman?

"Your Majesty, are you deliberately using me to make that girl angry?"

Meng Wenyao was still a little angry at being used like this. She was a helpless merchant girl and offended an official lady. What would she do in the future?

Chu Yuanfeng's hand was still holding Meng Wenyao's hand. After the woman left, he slowly put on Meng Wenyao's shoes and socks, and then he began to explain: "That is my stepmother's natal niece. My stepmother only wanted to Let her marry me. As you can see, I am not happy. I am also very sorry for taking advantage of you today. If you are willing, I am willing to take you as my concubine and protect you throughout your life."

After hearing these words, Meng Wenyao was already angry. She almost wanted to stab Chu Yuanfeng with a knife. What kind of bullshit promise was this? Which concubine in a wealthy family is easy to make.

Why protect you all your life? If you can protect you for your whole life, you won't just let me be a concubine. You are obviously taking advantage of Meng Wenyao and just giving some small favors. In the future, if she is a concubine, she will be killed by the main wife. Well, a cold-blooded person like Chu Yuanfeng would definitely not care.

"No need, what happened today will be regarded as my repayment of the prince's life-saving kindness, and I will leave now."

Meng Wenyao stood up and left, but after only two steps, she heard a voice urging her to stay behind.

"Wait a minute."

Meng Wenyao stopped, turned around, and waited for Chu Yuanfeng to finish speaking. She vowed that no matter what Chu Yuanfeng said, she would leave without looking back and never give him a chance to humiliate her.

"But you are unhappy because I asked you to be my concubine?"

Meng Wenyao did not answer, but the answer was obvious.

Chu Yuanfeng continued: "When my mother-in-law was pregnant with my sister, she was so angry by a concubine that she had a miscarriage. Later, my father wandered into a brothel and wanted to take a prostitute as his concubine. My mother-in-law's health started to get worse from then on. He must have been so angry with that prostitute.

So from that time on, I decided not to keep concubines or visit brothels in this life, and I would never let myself be wronged by a princess in the future. What happened today happened unexpectedly, and I am willing to take responsibility for you.

You and I are very different in status. I can't marry you as a princess, I can only make you a concubine. Don't worry, I will never treat you badly in the future. Apart from your child not being able to inherit the palace, I will definitely take good care of it and won't be compared to you. Where did the legitimate son go? "

Do you really think there are no men in the world? How could she, Meng Wenyao, be a concubine? What's more, she was now a wealthy young woman and had established a female household. In the future, recruiting a son-in-law would be no more than a hundred times better than being a concubine.
