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

Unfortunately, before he could ask the next question, he saw the curtain of the carriage being lowered by Meng Wen Yao, and he was the only one still immersed in his previous thoughts.

He thought that Concubine Bao might have to take action. She couldn't really send assassins to do it when he went to Northern Frontier. Did Concubine Bao have such assassins?

Suddenly, he thought of Prince Fenyang and Xie Jinbao, who was already 15 years old. If Xie Jinbao asked Prince Fenyang for help, Concubine Bao might have the opportunity to kill him halfway.

Xie Nanan's death in the palace left everyone clueless. If he really died on the way, it would probably be another unsolved case. At that time, the palace would probably really belong to Xie Jinbao.

Even if Prince Fenyang finds out in the future that it was Xie Jinbao who did it, since Xie Jinbao is the only son, the matter will be left unresolved.

It seemed that no matter how he thought about it, staying was the best decision, especially when he thought about leaving and never seeing the people in the carriage again, he felt a little reluctant in his heart.

He once again forced himself not to think too much. He stayed to protect the princess and get the position of crown prince that he deserved.

During the next two days of the ritual, Meng Wenyao tried her best to avoid Xie Chenyi, always keeping him on suspense.

Finally, on the last day, Meng Wen Yao was blocked in the Buddhist hall by Xie Chenyi.

"Did my sister-in-law ask the abbot to let me stay?"

Before Meng Wenyao could answer, Xie Chenyi smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, why bother spending that money to find the abbot? If you want me to stay, just tell me the reason and I will consider it."

What reason could there be? It's just that I don't want you to die, and I don't want to expose my identity so soon. I want to hide behind the scenes and be a chess player.

But she didn't expect to be discovered by Xie Chenyi so soon. She said awkwardly, "Because of the death of the eldest son, I have been labeled as a husband-killer. The things in the palace, even if I don't tell you, the second son knows. You and the third son have reached the point of life and death. I think no matter which of you two has an accident, I'm afraid that others will think that I have a bad fate. Since entering the palace, I have been killing people."

Xie Chenyi didn't quite believe this reason. He chuckled and said, "If I stay, the Bao family won't attack me, and there won't be a life-and-death situation?"

Meng Wenyao was forced to retreat step by step by Xie Chenyi. She held on to the table behind her and calmly analyzed: "The second young master stays in the mansion, and Bao Shi will definitely not send assassins over. After all, it is a royal mansion.

The most likely thing she did was poison. If you are careful about this, not only will Bao not succeed, but you will also be able to catch Bao. With the evidence in hand, it will be easy to get rid of Bao. Without Bao, Xie Jinbao won't be a concern."

"Do you have a grudge against the Bao family?"

"I was deceived into marriage, isn't it natural for me to have a grudge against the Bao family?"

This reason was very convincing. Xie Chenyi nodded and asked again: "If we get rid of Bao, what do you want?"

Meng Wenyao said gently but firmly: "I beg for a divorce letter. When the second son becomes the crown prince or the prince, I also ask you, as the head of the family, to give me a divorce letter and let me leave this cannibalistic place."

"Okay." Xie Chenyi agreed immediately without thinking.

"But," Xie Chenyi was a little worried: "What if I was poisoned to death?"

"Since you know that Mrs. Bao will poison you, you should not eat anything from the mansion. Besides, if you are really poisoned to death, I will definitely avenge you. I will file a complaint with the government and drag Mrs. Bao into the water even if I risk my life. Then I will say that Mrs. Bao and I teamed up to poison you. All of this is to avenge Xie Nanan. It is reasonable and logical."

"Okay." Xie Chenyi smiled bitterly. He didn't expect Meng Wenyao to hate Bao so much that she wanted to die together with him.

After the three-day ceremony, Xie Nanan's coffin was buried on a chosen day, and everyone returned to Fenyang Palace together.

When Concubine Bao saw Xie Ruxue's mentally ill appearance, she was furious.

"What's going on? Xue'er, what happened to you? Don't be afraid. Tell me what happened to you."

While asking this, Concubine Bao went to see Xie Jinbao. He had been in Jinfu Temple for the past few days, so how could he know all this?

He said casually: "Xue'er is talking nonsense, maybe it's because big brother misses him too much."

This sentence shut up the maids who were about to speak. Meng Wenyao knew that the maids would still complain later, so she simply said openly: "Fourth sister did offend the eldest master. She always humiliated me for no reason in front of the mourning shed, and even rushed over to beat me. Then she accidentally kicked over the eldest master's brazier and stepped on the eldest master's eternal lamp. I heard that the eldest master appeared in the fourth sister's dream that night, and then the fourth sister was like this."

Meng Wen Yao spoke very innocently. How could Concubine Bao not know that there were many details involved? Unfortunately, none of her people came back. Only Xie Ruxue's maid was timid and did not dare to speak.

As soon as her son left, her daughter was bullied like this, and even her subordinates were all left in the family temple. She held Xie Ruxue's hand with bulging veins, and asked through gritted teeth: "Where were you at the time?"

"In the room. I had to go to the temple to pray the next day. The fourth young lady and the eldest young master had a deep relationship. Not only did she not want to eat, she also insisted on crying in front of the coffin. That's why she bumped into the eldest young master's soul who came back in the middle of the night. Fortunately, the eldest young master and the fourth young lady had a good relationship, otherwise this soul would have been taken away."

Now Concubine Bao is very clear that Meng Wen Yao is not as virtuous as rumored, but looks like a ruffian.

As a real mother-in-law, how could she allow Meng Wen Yao to be so unscrupulous? She turned around and knelt in front of King Fenyang.

"Your Majesty, I have had nightmares these past few days. An'er said that she misses her family so much that her soul cannot rest in peace. I think that since Meng is An'er's widow, she should not enjoy the luxury of the world in the future. There is a small Buddhist temple in the northwest corner of the ancestral hall. How about letting Meng live there in the future, chanting Buddhist scriptures and praying for the eldest son?"

Prince Fenyang glanced at Meng Wen Yao. Although he felt that it was not good to treat his new daughter-in-law like this, he felt really distressed because Concubine Bao had been so haggard recently because of Xie Nanan's affairs.

It would take more than one or two days to find something to hold against the princess. Concubine Bao had to find an outlet for her resentment, so she might as well take it out on Meng first.

He nodded and said, "Husband and wife are one. Now that An'er is gone, it's time for Meng to chant sutras and pray for blessings."

Hearing Prince Fenyang's words, Meng Wen Yao almost fell out with her eyes blacked out. The scene in the original plot was played out again. What bad luck had she had to have to deal with the disgusting things happening to the Prince Fenyang's family.

She calmed her mind and didn't consider reputation and etiquette at all. She sneered and said, "The concubine said that she dreamed that the eldest son missed his family, so the family member that the eldest son missed the most should be asked to chant the sutra. Although I am the eldest son's wife, we have never even met each other, and we haven't even completed the wedding ceremony. To be honest, what kind of feelings can there be between the two of us? If I just go to chant the sutra, can the eldest son really feel the family love?"
