Chapter 30: The Desireless Prince vs. the Scheming Concubine in the Buddhist Temple 6

Chu took Bai Menglian, who had a stiff face, and the Duke's wife and others, and quickly tidied up their appearance and left the Bai Mansion.

At this time, many people had gathered at the gate of Bai Mansion. After all, Meng Jiao's face was quite shocking.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, may your Highness live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years."

Meng Jiao also followed suit and was about to kneel down, when she suddenly heard a low voice from the man above her head.

"Don't kneel."

Hearing him say this, Meng Jiao obediently retreated behind him and watched his performance.

Pei Jinye glanced at the people kneeling in front of the door, and did not ask them to stand up. He just spoke in a cold voice,

"Where is Minister Bai?"

Chu had just gone out and taken a closer look, and had already seen the general situation. Somehow, Bai Mengjiao's little hoof had managed to climb up the big tree of the prince.

Seeing so many people in front of the gate, the prince did not ask her, the princess, or the people from the Duke's Mansion, to stand up, but let Bai Mengjiao stand alone.

Even though I was extremely unwilling, I had no choice but to swallow my anger.

"Your Highness, my family..."

When Chu was about to explain, the carriage of the Bai Mansion passed through the crowd and stopped in front of the mansion.

Bai Zhanxiong closed his eyes and rested in the carriage. He had woken up early in the morning court, and now the carriage was moving slowly, making him feel a little sleepy.

Unexpectedly, the servant outside the carriage drove the carriage into the crowd and saw the prince looking at his carriage with a cold gaze.

"Sir, sir, please come down quickly. The Crown Prince is coming to our house."

The coachman's shout woke Bai Zhanxiong, who was dozing off in the carriage. He hurriedly opened the curtain of the carriage, got off the carriage, and knelt down to pay his respects to Pei Jinye.

The timing of all this was too coincidental. Meng Jiao would be stupid if she couldn't see Pei Jinye's intention at this moment.

First, he let himself fall asleep in the carriage, so that he would miss the opportunity to cancel the engagement. Then, he let himself get off the carriage first, so that he could understand his current situation through the discussion of the servants. Then, he made a heroic appearance, so that he could feel how special he was to him and vent his anger.

In the end, if Meng Jiao guessed correctly, she would subtly remind Bai's father, who had just returned home, about her relationship with him.

As expected, Pei Jinye spoke to Father Bai who was kneeling on the ground.

"Master Bai, I didn't know that the Shangshu Mansion couldn't afford a carriage to pick up and drop off children. I am really impressed by their frugality."

Bai Zhanxiong lowered his head in confusion, not knowing what had happened. After all, he didn't even know that Meng Jiao went to the Buddhist temple to worship Buddha, so how could he know what happened after Meng Jiao was no longer in the mansion?

"Your Highness, what does this mean? I don't know."

Chu, who was kneeling on the ground below, had slightly wet palms. She still couldn't understand how Bai Mengjiao, who was usually dull and boring, could get close to the prince.

"I was on leave the day before yesterday, and heard that the second young lady of the Shangshu Mansion had accidentally fallen and was staying in a temple, but there was no carriage waiting for her.

What makes me even more puzzled is that it has been two days since the incident. The monks of Guanchan Temple personally delivered the letter to your house, but no one has received it yet.

Considering the great contributions that you have made to the court, I will personally send you back to the Bai Mansion today. Sir Bai, can you accommodate him? Don't let others laugh at you anymore."

Pei Jinye stood in front of Meng Jiao, blocking all gazes, and slammed Bai's father's face word by word.

Bai Zhanxiong understood the hidden meaning in his words. Even though he still didn't know the whole story, he still smiled and said,

"I understand, I understand. Your Highness, please rest assured."

Pei Jinye turned around, leaving time for him to help Meng Jiao solve the problem. Before leaving and getting on the carriage, he looked at Meng Jiao and left a sentence.

"I will come to see you in a few days. Take good care of your injuries."

It was not until Pei Jinye disappeared around the corner that all those kneeling on the ground dared to stand up.

Meng Jiao withdrew her eyes from watching the carriage disappear, and then she bowed to these so-called elders one by one.

At this point, these people realized that after not seeing her for a few days, Bai Mengjiao had changed drastically.

The previous dullness and timidity disappeared, replaced by a bright and attractive appearance with black hair and red lips. She was graceful and elegant, standing there quietly, and she was a sight in herself.

After Du Yu stood up, he stared at Xiang Mengjiao's face with infatuated eyes. He couldn't help but regret that he had canceled the engagement in a hurry. Why didn't he realize at that time that this little face with her head lowered was so beautiful?

Bai Menglian noticed Du Yu's eyes and cursed in her heart, "You slutty bitch, you came back dressed like this, are you trying to use that face to seduce the prince to change his mind?"

Bai Zhanxiong also looked at his daughter with surprise as she bowed to him so gracefully. She looked like him, but also not like him. They were 70% similar in appearance, but their temperaments were totally different.

Putting aside his thoughts, seeing that there were still scattered civilians, Bai Zhanxiong waved his hand without saying anything and walked into the mansion first.

The Duke's wife saw this messy situation. Bai Mengjiao was not on good terms with the Crown Prince. Who knew if anything had happened between the two of them in the temple? Otherwise, how could the Crown Prince protect her like this?

Pulling his son, whose eyes were about to go straight, he said goodbye to Bai Zhanxiong, thinking to himself that he should not get involved with this woman.

Du Yu did not say goodbye to his clingy Menglian baby before leaving, and did not even give Bai Menglian a glance, which successfully stimulated Bai Menglian's vain heart.

In the reception room of the Bai Mansion, Bai Zhanxiong sat at the head of the table, looking at Meng Jiao, Chu and others standing below, and spoke impatiently,

"Tell me, what's going on?"

Over the years, Chu's title of princess has long been an empty title. With the decline of the Prince's Mansion, Chu has begun to be cautious in front of Father Bai.

Hearing his question, Chu rushed to shake the embroidered handkerchief in her hand before Bai Mengjiao, pretending to wipe it in front of her eyes.

"Master, this is a small matter, a small misunderstanding, and it shouldn't have been brought to the Crown Prince. This... Alas, Meng Jiao is the same, how will you let your father face his colleagues in the future?"

Ruozhu was protecting Mengjiao and felt a little indignant when she heard this.

Meng Jiao raised her eyebrows, thinking she was as easy to control as the original owner.

"What do you mean, mother? Meng Jiao believes that she has done nothing wrong.

It was her mother who suggested going up the mountain to pray for blessings. Meng Jiao prepared a lot of things and followed her mother to burn incense in the temple.

When we arrived, I was abandoned on the way down the mountain. I was a weak woman and it was getting dark. If I didn't go back to Guanchan Temple, according to my mother's wishes, would I have to have an accident and die on the way so as not to bring shame to the Shangshu Mansion?

Besides, why did my mother change the concept? Shouldn't the one who shamed my father be the one who deliberately prevented me from going down the mountain? "

The words fell in silence, and the whole hall echoed with Meng Jiao's words. The pretended sadness on Chu's face was a little stiff. Looking at this sharp-tongued girl, she was unable to refute for a moment.

Bai Zhanxiong was also somewhat surprised. His daughter had always been a sweet and pretty girl when she was protected by her mother.

Now that her mother is gone, her temper has changed, but I think it's because she was forced into a corner by Chu, otherwise she wouldn't openly contradict her elders.

"That's enough, Mengjiao, she's your mother, how can you talk like that!"

Meng Jiao's lips curled up in contempt.

"Yes, Meng Jiao shouldn't be disrespectful to her elders, but Master Bai, if the mother is not kind, how can the son be filial?

My daughter was lost, and as her stepmother, she did not find her right away. She even cancelled the marriage proposal with the Duke's Mansion on my behalf while I was away.

It really makes people sigh, what a good mother she is."
