The mistress is reborn, no one who bullies me can escape

Meng Jinyao's face turned pale in an instant. Even if she was ignorant of worldly affairs, she knew that this matter was serious. She hurriedly said, "Brother, this was definitely not my fault! How could I do such a ridiculous thing?"

Meng Jincheng was of course well aware of his sister's character. Although she had always been somewhat willful and reckless, it was unlikely that she would be confused about such a big matter.

"I believe in your innocence, but now you are being schemed against and used by others. I can trust you, but how can the emperor trust you so easily?"

Meng Jinyao's originally relaxed mood seemed to be hit by frost at this moment. She instantly fell to the bottom and became depressed.

"Brother, everything I said is true! If I had really done such a bad thing, how could I be so stupid as to risk my life and join Ling Yan?"

She was not so stupid that she knew she had become a suspect, but she still wanted to fall into the trap.

"If the emperor doesn't believe it, then I will go to the emperor in person to explain my situation." Meng Jinyao bit her lip and said firmly.

After finishing speaking, Meng Jinyao quickly put on her clothes and strode out the door without hesitation.

However, at this moment, Meng Jincheng rushed forward, stretched out his hand to block her way, and shouted loudly: "You are going there at this moment, are you seeking death?"

Faced with her brother's obstruction and questioning, Meng Jinyao's face was full of confusion, and her beautiful eyes stared at Meng Jincheng, as if she didn't understand why he said that at all.

Meng Jincheng continued with a serious face: "If you insist on moving forward again, even if a great golden immortal descends to the mortal world, it will be difficult to save your life!"

Although Meng Jinyao was still indignant, when she calmed down and thought about it carefully, she had to admit that what her elder brother said was not unreasonable.

After all, judging from the current situation, the emperor's attitude towards her is already quite clear. If she continues to rush in without knowing the consequences, the consequences will be disastrous.

At this time, Meng Jincheng spoke again: "Now that the emperor can send you here, it is obvious that he thinks you have nothing to do with this matter and are an innocent person."

At this point, Meng Jincheng's face became increasingly gloomy, as if covered by a thick layer of dark clouds. "But in my opinion, there must be someone who knows your plan and is secretly making trouble, trying to use you to get rid of the emperor!"

Perhaps, that person's real purpose was not to put the emperor to death, but quite the opposite...

Behind it lies a more secretive and unimaginable conspiracy.

When Meng Jinyao heard this, her heart skipped a beat, as if it was about to jump out of her throat.

She widened her eyes, looked at her eldest brother in astonishment, and asked in a trembling voice: "Brother, do you mean to say that someone has been taking advantage of me?"

In fact, when Meng Jincheng just said this, Meng Jinyao had already had this thought in her mind, but some things were of great importance after all, and it was not appropriate for her to say it herself.

However, at this moment, after receiving a positive answer from her eldest brother, her original mood gradually calmed down, and was replaced by an extraordinary calmness and composure.

Meng Jincheng nodded slightly, and then said: "We cannot rule out this possibility. But who in this Nanjiang City has such courage and means?"

Yes! Meng Jinyao couldn't help but think secretly in her heart.

You know, his elder brother is extremely powerful and has the final say in Nanjiang City. He has always been a man of his word.

Who in this land dares to openly challenge his authority and do such a bold thing?

Thinking of this, Meng Jinyao frowned tightly, and the worry in her heart became heavier.

If this mastermind really has the ability to see through the heavens and the earth, then will he (she) continue to harm the emperor of Jin? Thinking of this, Meng Jinyao's face turned pale, and his hands involuntarily clenched the corners of his clothes.

Although Meng Jincheng had already guessed about the suspicious person in his heart, when he faced his sister Meng Jinyao, those thoughts seemed to be buried deep in his heart and did not show up at all.

"Okay, don't worry about who that person is, I will find him out! As for you, go back and have a good rest now. If I see you doing something that lowers your status again, don't blame me for not considering the brother-sister relationship between us." Meng Jincheng said to Meng Jinyao with a serious face.

After hearing what her brother said, Meng Jinyao instantly became well-behaved. After all, she was now disliked by the emperor, and naturally she didn't have the courage to get close to the emperor in a short period of time.

After Meng Jinyao turned and left, Meng Jincheng's originally resolute face was gradually covered with a layer of haze, and his mood became heavy. He was completely different from the confident look he had when Meng Jinyao was still in front of him.

Over the years, he always believed that with his own strong strength and outstanding leadership skills, he had managed Nanjiang City in an orderly manner, and even felt that no one here could challenge his authority.

Because of this, he has always acted recklessly and wantonly in southern Xinjiang.

However, it was not until this moment that he realized that his previous thoughts were too naive.

It turned out that things were far from as simple and clear as he had imagined. It was probably because in this seemingly peaceful and harmonious southern Xinjiang city, there were still many forces hidden there that were dissatisfied with him and attempted to subvert his rule.

If it were any other time, with his personality and temper, he would definitely want to find the guy hiding in the dark, even if he had to dig deep into the ground and search every corner, to make sure he had nowhere to hide! However, the situation was different at this moment...

Meng Jincheng slowly closed his eyes, as if entering another world.

In an instant, countless images emerged in his eyes like a tide: some bright, some dark, some clear, some blurred; some scenes were extremely familiar, while others seemed extremely strange.

These images kept flashing like a kaleidoscope, dazzling the eyes.

After an unknown amount of time, Meng Jincheng finally opened his eyes again.

At this moment, the originally chaotic thoughts suddenly became clear, just like the sun appearing after the clouds have been cleared.

His eyes were firm and calm, as if he had already made up his mind.

Seeing this, the guards who had been waiting nearby knew that their Lord City Master had already made up his mind, so they stepped forward and asked respectfully: "Lord City Master, since a decision has been made, what should we do next?"

Meng Jincheng replied without hesitation: "Everything can proceed according to the original plan."

When these words came out, the guards couldn't help but be stunned on the spot.

Because if it is really implemented according to the original plan, it means that many of the matters that have been prepared before will have to be temporarily put on hold.

After all, times have changed and the current situation has changed.

What's more, an edict has already been received from the Emperor of Jin, clearly stating that this matter must be completely resolved.

If we can't give a satisfactory result, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain to His Majesty! Thinking of this, the guard couldn't help but look embarrassed. After hesitating for a moment, he mustered up the courage to say: "Lord City Lord, if things continue to develop like this, then how should we deal with the Emperor of Jin? After all, the other party may hope that we can give him an answer as soon as possible."

Facing the guards' concerns and doubts, Meng Jincheng remained calm and responded calmly: "It's okay, just pass the message and tell them that this city lord will be personally responsible for investigating this matter and will give the emperor a reasonable explanation. You can take advantage of this time to send more troops over and say that they are protecting the emperor."

When the guard heard this, he suddenly realized what was going on, and an ecstatic smile immediately broke out on his face: "Lord City Lord, you are so wise and intelligent! Such a brilliant plan can not only reassure the emperor, but also send people to secretly monitor the emperor's every move without anyone knowing. It's simply killing two birds with one stone!" Thinking of this, the guard couldn't help but admire the lord city lord.

When Meng Jincheng told Ling Yan all his plans, Ling Yan behaved quite calmly, as if everything was as expected, and his expression was calm.

However, Runanji, who was standing aside, could not suppress his inner anger and said with gritted teeth: "Your Majesty, this City Lord Meng is too arrogant and domineering! He actually dared to blatantly monitor us with such an excuse. I will go find him to argue with him now!" As he said that, Runanji raised his foot and was about to rush out.

At this time, Ling Yan said in a deep voice: "Forget it, my dear, don't be impulsive. If you go to question him angrily at this moment, you will only give people a reason to criticize you and become a laughing stock in the eyes of everyone. By then, there will probably be many people who want to laugh at us."

Although Ling Yan said it calmly, it was not difficult to tell from his slightly furrowed brows that he was actually quite angry in his heart.

But as the king of a country, he must remain calm and composed.

After hearing this, although Runanji was still unwilling, he had to suppress his anger when he saw the emperor's firm attitude. He said indignantly: "But Your Majesty, are we just going to swallow our anger and let City Lord Meng do whatever he wants?"

Ling Yan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a cold smile, his eyes flashing with cold light, and said coldly: "I will naturally settle this account with City Lord Meng, but the time is not yet ripe, let him be free for a while!"

Although he was burning with anger, especially when he thought of what City Lord Meng had done to Xue Jinhua, Ling Yan wanted to rush up and fight the other party to the death.

However, reason told him not to act impulsively, especially in order to find Xue Jinhua, he knew he had to be patient at this moment.

"Hmph, City Lord Meng thinks he's extremely smart and cunning, but how can we be the kind of people who can be bullied? He has been out a lot recently. Isn't this the perfect opportunity we have been waiting for? As long as we find the right moment, we can take the opportunity to sneak out of here and have a good wander around outside." Ling Yan crossed his arms and analyzed confidently.

Runanji, who was standing by, suddenly realized what Ling Yan was up to and immediately stopped trying to stop him. Instead, he cupped his hands and praised, "Your Majesty is wise and powerful. This is a brilliant plan!"

The next morning, the sun shone into Ling Yan's palace, and everything seemed peaceful and tranquil as usual.

However, when Runanji was about to go out, a strange follower appeared beside him...

Not long after, Runanji and his entourage followed closely behind Meng Jincheng's doctor and walked out of Nanjiang City together.

At this time, Xue Jinhua was lying on the bed, looking a little pale.

She coughed twice, looked at the doctor who came to check her pulse with worry, and asked anxiously: "Doctor, I don't know why, but I always feel my stomach dropping a lot these days. Do you think I'm about to give birth?"

The doctor stroked his beard and said solemnly, "Madam is pregnant with twins. It is really difficult to accurately determine the exact time of delivery."

"But right now you feel your abdomen dropping... I'm afraid this is a sign that the baby is about to enter the pelvis."

Hearing this, Xue Jinhua's heart was shocked, her face was full of astonishment, and she asked in a trembling voice: "Could it be that she is about to give birth?"

"Madam, please don't worry. Even though the fetus has entered the pelvis, delivery still requires a process. It's not the right time yet, so it won't happen so quickly." The old doctor hurriedly spoke to comfort her, trying to calm Xue Jinhua's nervousness.

However, despite the old doctor's repeated assurances, Xue Jinhua remained gloomy and worried.

Seeing her like this, the old doctor couldn't help but sigh, and then said gently: "Madam, you can relax. When I return this time, I will tell the city lord about this matter directly and ask him to prepare an experienced midwife for you in advance to ensure that everything goes well."

Xue Jinhua nodded slightly, "Thank you for your concern, doctor."

After saying this, the old doctor turned and left.

Actually, Xue Jinhua originally wanted to ask about other matters through the old doctor. But at the moment, she had no time to care about those trivial matters, and her worries were all focused on her own physical condition...

While she was still thinking, suddenly, she heard a loud noise. She looked a little panicked, wondering who was so brave to come in, but she saw a familiar figure...
