Meng Sijing said.
"Meng Qingge?"
The shock on Yan Minglang's face was obvious. He had never expected that it would be the vulgar and barbaric Meng Qingge. He frowned, thinking that Jing'er might have made a mistake, but the next moment he heard Meng Sijing say, "Brother Lang, Meng Qingge did not return home last night. I was worried about her, so I waited at the gate of the mansion before dawn, but I saw her coming back in an unfamiliar carriage. Her face was very pale, and when I stopped her to ask about her whereabouts, I accidentally touched her right arm. Her face was particularly ugly at the time, and she even broke out in cold sweat. She didn't dare to raise her arm..."
Meng Sijing narrated slowly. She remembered the events of that morning very clearly. She did not react to it at the time, but now she thought about it and found everything connected.
"I didn't think too much about it at the time, but Qingge attacked me, saying that I couldn't tolerate her, bullied her, and wronged her... and asked my father to kick me out of the house... I was too sad, so I ran away from the Meng family. I saw the notice posted on the street and learned about the assassination of Prince Han's concubine. Now when I think about it, I feel panic in my heart..."
"Jing'er, is it possible that you guessed wrong?"
Yan Minglang asked with a frown.
Assassinations are serious matters and should be handled with caution. We may also be afraid of picking the wrong target. Otherwise, not only will we fail to achieve our goal, but we may also offend a group of people.
Meng Sijing sighed softly, "Brother Lang, I'm afraid I've made a mistake. I don't dare to talk about this matter casually, let alone tell my family, but I feel that this is almost certain. Brother Lang, do you still remember that Qingge was stabbed by King Han a month ago?"
"Remember, Meng Qingge came to my house that day."
Strictly speaking.
"Yes, I don't know how she offended King Han and was stabbed with a sword. She almost lost her life. Now that I think about it, she was probably jealous, so she met King Han's concubine on the street and attacked her... Of course, this is just my guess. After all, I didn't see it with my own eyes."
"That must be it!"
I just heard Yan Minglang gritting his teeth.
He didn't doubt Meng Sijing's words at all, and it made sense to connect them together now.
Meng Qingge was always a troublemaker, rude and arrogant. She was also a brainless person. After being taught a lesson by Prince Han, she didn't know how to restrain herself and actually took revenge behind Prince Han's back.
Good, what a great Meng Qingge.
"Jing'er, now if you look at Meng Qingge's shoulder blade to see if she has any injuries, you will know if she is the murderer who assassinated the concubine of King Han."
Yan Minglang said excitedly.
"If the murderer is really Meng Qingge, then she is really not far from death. She has offended Prince Han, offended the Prime Minister's Mansion, and assassinated the royal family. Even the king of heaven can't save her. Meng Yanting has been upright all his life. Does he know that he has such a daughter? He is blindly tolerant and doting on you, and even wants to drive you out of the mansion. Will he regret it?"
Yan Minglang sneered.
Meng Sijing lowered her eyes. Yes, this was what she thought.
"Brother Lang, how can I prove this? Meng Qingge is now full of defense and hostility towards me. I can't get close to her at all. Even if we meet, she will only humiliate me. I... I am no match for her at all."
Meng Sijing covered his eyes with a handkerchief.
At this moment, Yan Minglang was excited and thrilled, as if he saw a road to heaven opening up to him.
If it is confirmed that Meng Qingge is the murderer who assassinated Prince Han's concubine, then the Meng family will no longer block his marriage to Si Jing. The most important thing is that he can use this merit to get close to Prince Han. This is a ladder to heaven!
"Let me think about it."
Yan Minglang stood up and paced back and forth with his hands behind his back.
"Her shoulder blade was injured so badly, and it has only been a day and a night. It is impossible for her to recover. She needs to be bandaged and given medicine. She cannot do these things alone. She must need help? Does she have a loyal maidservant by her side?"
"There is a maid, a maid named Sixi, who is very loyal to Qingge and has been with her for two years."
Meng Sijing said.
Yan Minglang smiled, his eyes filled with coldness, "That's her. A personal maid naturally knows everything about her master. She must be the one who knows best whether Meng Qingge's shoulder blade is injured or not."
"But... Brother Lang, how could that girl tell the truth..."
"This prince has plenty of means. Once she is in my hands, she will have no control over herself."
When saying this, a hint of viciousness flashed in Yan Minglang's eyes, but he did not notice that Meng Sijing, who was standing next to him with his eyes downcast, raised the corner of his mouth and was completely hooked.
From the moment Father Meng said he would announce his identity to the world, from the moment Big Brother said he and Meng Qingge were related by blood, her heart had turned cold...
She hated Meng Qingge to death, hated her arrogance and ruthlessness. She had been cautious and tried her best to get along peacefully with her, but why did she still bully her everywhere in the past two years? Especially after falling into the lake this time, her temperament changed drastically. She was no longer as loud as before, but more unpredictable. Her dislike for her was directly put on the surface. No matter how she provoked her, she could always fight back calmly. Such Meng Qingge made her feel panicked and scared.
Yan Minglang worked as the Minister of the Imperial Clan Court and was an expert at interrogation, so she guided them step by step, starting with the little maidservant next to Meng Qingge, and then caught Meng Qingge...
But if she guessed wrong, it didn't matter. She just suspected that the interrogation methods were all done by Yan Minglang, and she just stood by and watched.
"Jing'er, listen to me. Go back to the Meng family now and find a chance to call that little maid out..."
Yan Minglang leaned close to Meng Sijing's ear and told him his arrangements.
Meng Sijing lowered his eyes in embarrassment, "But, Brother Lang, wouldn't this be a bad idea..."
"Jing'er, you are too kind. Brother Lang just called the little maid out to ask a question. If the assassination was really done by Meng Qingge, she would have implicated the entire Meng family and you. If it wasn't for Meng Qingge, Brother Lang would have sent the little maid away and wouldn't have done anything to her. Don't worry."
Yan Minglang said comfortingly.
In his heart, Meng Sijing was kind and weak. She was unwilling to even lie to others and couldn't bear to hurt even a little maid.
Meng Sijing lowered his head, as if he was in a dilemma. After a long while, he said, "Well... Brother Lang, you must keep your word. No matter what the maid Si Xi says or not, you can't hurt her. If the assassin is really Qingge, then we can make a long-term plan at that time. If not... that would be the best. Just treat it as a false alarm."
"it is good."
Yan Minglang nodded, but in his heart he laughed at Jing'er for being too naive and kind.
If the assassination was really done by Meng Qingge, how can we make long-term plans? The Meng family is afraid that they will suffer heavy losses.
Meng Sijing left in the Yan family's carriage. After returning home, she heard from the servants that Meng's father had entered the palace and Meng Huai was not at home because of some urgent matters. She lowered her eyes, sneered in her heart, and felt even more sad. Were they so eager to announce to the world that she was not the legitimate daughter of the Meng family?
She cried until her eyes were red. She went to see the old lady first. After crying for a long time, she asked the servants and learned that Meng Qingge was not at home. Her eyes flickered and she went to Meng Qingge's yard...
