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

Could it be that the secret thing I have always wanted to do... has been discovered by someone?

But when he thought of the series of events caused by his mask last time, Meng Jincheng's heart instantly fell back into his stomach.

It shouldn't be the case. After all, Ling Yan had already witnessed his true face with his own eyes. Even if he had doubts and suspicions in his heart, it was impossible for him to point the spearhead of suspicion directly at himself!

"Don't worry, everything is under control. You just need to continue to arrange people to closely monitor the emperor's every move." Meng Jincheng ordered calmly.

"As you command, Lord City Lord."

"I will definitely live up to my mission and get this done properly." The subordinate responded respectfully.

As the day of the grand banquet is getting closer, Meng Jincheng has made full preparations in all aspects. It can be said that everything is ready, and all that is missing is the east wind - waiting for that specific moment to come.

However, before that, there is one crucial thing that must be made clear first, which is the specific condition of the emperor's current injuries.

However, there were some conflicts between him and Ling Yan last time, and their relationship became a little tense for a while.

If we rashly go to inquire about the news now, or even rush forward to ask questions recklessly, I am afraid that not only will we not get the desired result, but it may backfire and the loss will outweigh the gain.

Therefore, Meng Jincheng didn't even spend time thinking, and went to find Meng Jinyao without hesitation.

You know, in the last incident, although Ling Yan felt extremely annoyed with Meng Jinyao, after all, as a woman...

Their inner world is often complex and changeable, filled with countless little thoughts and calculations.

Meng Jincheng firmly believed that with his sister's intelligence, she would be able to accurately grasp Ling Yan's weaknesses.

Although this does not mean that Ling Yan will fall in love with her and dote on her in every way; however, at least through this test, she can find out the other party's true situation and attitude.

As expected, when Meng Jincheng told Meng Jinyao about this, the latter also agreed immediately without hesitation.

"Brother, are you really going to allow me to go out? Haven't you always been against me..."

In short, Meng Jinyao's emotions were already extremely excited at this moment. You know, time has passed quickly since she was trapped here, and a long time has passed.

If she continues like this, then death is the only thing waiting for her.

As long as there is a chance to come out, even if there is only a chance of gaining a little favor and mercy from the emperor, she will be willing to do anything and spare no effort!

"Of course, you are my own sister. How can I bear to imprison you here for the rest of your life?" Meng Jincheng replied with a smile and a gentle tone.

Meng Jinyao knew very well deep down in her heart that even though her brother always gave people the impression that he was cold and hard to get close to, blood was thicker than water after all, and they had an unbreakable kinship.

So she firmly believed that no matter when and where, no matter how difficult the situation was, her brother would always be kind to her.

At this time, the elder brother said, "But since we are siblings, after you leave, I have to do something for you."

Meng Jinyao has always been extremely intelligent, and she understood the profound meaning of her brother's words almost instantly.

She couldn't help but smile and responded, "Brother, please feel free to say it. As long as I can do something, I will definitely do my best and will never let you down!"

Hearing his sister agree so readily, the brother nodded with satisfaction and continued, "In fact, this is not a difficult matter. It just requires my sister to spend more time and effort. If the emperor's injury has not healed, then the welcoming banquet we have been preparing for a long time may have to be postponed; but if the emperor's health has recovered, then we don't have to worry about anything." These words were very reasonable and there was nothing to fault with them.

However, at this moment, Meng Jinyao's heart and eyes were filled with joy and anticipation of meeting Ling Yan, and she had no time to care about anything else.

She had never thought about whether what her brother said was appropriate.

"Brother, you just need to relax. I will handle this matter. If the emperor's injuries are serious, even if you host a banquet for him, I'm afraid the emperor will not be willing to attend." Meng Jinyao said confidently.

Meng Jincheng nodded slightly to show his agreement, and then handed the things he had prepared to Meng Jinyao, saying earnestly: "This is such an important matter, I'll have to trouble you, sister."

"Brother and I are as close as siblings. This is my responsibility." Meng Jinyao responded with a smile.

After Meng Jincheng left, her mood instantly became extremely happy.

Before this, she had been thinking hard about how to meet Ling Yan, and every time she thought that she might need to act stealthily and cautiously, she became worried.

However, the situation was different now, and everything became natural... She could finally visit Ling Yan with a legitimate reason!

Just like that, Meng Jinyao was happily immersed in this sudden joy, not noticing anything unusual at all. She went straight to Ling Yan's bedroom with the items given by Meng Jincheng in her hand without hesitation.

But who would have thought that when she reached the door of the bedroom, she was suddenly stopped by someone.

When I looked closely, it turned out to be Runanji. He looked serious and said in a firm tone, "Miss Meng, please stay. Miss Meng is not allowed to enter here."

Meng Jinyao was furious when she saw this. Her eyebrows were raised and she shouted, "Master Run, you are so bold that you dare to stop me?"

Run Nanji's face was distorted with anger. He glared at Meng Jinyao in front of him and roared in a low voice: "Ms. Meng, I have already warned you! If you dare to take even a small step forward, don't blame me for being merciless to you!"

However, Meng Jinyao was not frightened at all by his harsh words.

She raised her head, looking straight into Run Nanji's threatening eyes, and said with a sneer: "Lord Run, are you threatening me? Humph, this is ridiculous!" Meng Jinyao was extremely disgusted with Run Nanji.

He gave up his good job as an official and instead came out to ruin her business.

She must see Ling Yan today no matter what, and no one can stop her!

Thinking of this, Meng Jinyao didn't even hesitate, her face instantly became extremely gloomy, as if water could drip out of it.

She stared at Run Nanji coldly and said word by word: "Master Run, if you can pretend that you didn't see anything at this moment, then I can forgive everything that happened before. But if you insist on blocking my way, don't blame me for being cruel!"

Upon hearing this, Runanji could not help but lower his head slightly and carefully look at the arrogant and domineering Meng Jinyao in front of him.

Her eyebrows were raised, her eyes were wide open, and her face was full of anger.

A barely perceptible sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he slowly asked, "Oh? Miss Meng, if I refuse to give way, how will Miss Meng deal with me?"

Meng Jinyao stretched out her hand almost without hesitation and pulled hard, and the thin clothes on her body were torn open in an instant, and her snow-white shoulders were exposed to the air without reservation.

Runanji, who was standing nearby, was a well-read scholar known for his elegance and refinement. Even though he had imagined countless possible scenarios in his mind, the scene before him was completely beyond his expectations.

His eyes were wide open, his face full of fear, and his face, which was already tense due to nervousness, now lost all its color and turned as pale as paper.

His eyes dodged in panic, not daring to look directly at Meng Jinyao's exposed skin, and stammered, "Meng... Miss Meng, what do you mean? Put on your clothes quickly! This behavior is really inappropriate!"

Seeing Runanji so panicked, Meng Jinyao couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in her heart.

However, at the same time, a hint of joking also emerged.

The corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she chuckled: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, I didn't expect Lord Run to be such a pure person! Could it be that Lord Run has never been in contact with a woman?"

After saying this, she deliberately twisted her body to make her shoulders more prominent, as if she wanted to tease Runanji further.

Seeing Meng Jinyao like this, Run Nanji felt his heart pounding and his breathing became rapid involuntarily.

He tried hard to control his emotions, took a deep breath and said, "Ms. Meng, please respect yourself! Don't act like this again."

But despite saying this, he couldn't help but glance at Meng Jinyao's shoulders from time to time, as if that whiteness had some kind of irresistible magic.

At this moment, Meng Jinyao was thinking to herself that if she had not met Ling Yan first, she might have really developed a liking for Run Nanji, who looked gentle, simple and cute.

It's a pity that her heart already belongs to Ling Yan, so it's naturally difficult for her to be moved by other men.

What's more, from the current point of view, although Runanji looks handsome, his personality is too reserved and dull, which is really not her type.

Thinking of this, Meng Jinyao shook her head gently, a look of regret appearing on her face.

At the moment when Run Nanji's face turned red and he was slightly dazed, Meng Jinyao flashed like a nimble kitten, and slipped past Run Nanji into the house in the blink of an eye.

"Ms. Meng, please put on your clothes quickly!" Runanji turned around in panic, closed his eyes, and said with a slightly trembling voice.

However, he shouted several times but still received no response.

After a while, when he opened his eyes in confusion, he was shocked to find that Meng Jinyao, who was supposed to be standing there, had disappeared without a trace.

Runanji was shocked and felt a chill rising from his spine, and the hairs on his body stood up.

He widened his eyes, looked around in disbelief, and muttered to himself: "How...how is this possible? He was clearly here just now!"

At this time, Runanji had already understood that all this was done intentionally by Meng Jinyao, with the purpose of making him look bad in public.

Thinking of this, he became so angry that his face turned blue, his cheeks puffed up, and his teeth chattered as if he could break his whole mouth of steel teeth into pieces.

On the other side, Meng Jinyao, who had successfully slipped into the house, tiptoed towards the inner room.

When she saw that Ling Yan was not resting on the bed as she had imagined, but was sitting upright at the desk, her heart beat involuntarily faster, like a deer beating wildly.

She took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, and then called softly, "Your Majesty..."

"Miss Meng, why are you here? Have you learned nothing from what happened last time?" Ling Yan was holding a book, seemingly reading attentively, but in fact he knew everything that had just happened outside the house.

At this moment, he didn't even raise his head, and there was no trace of good expression on his face.

Meng Jinyao had obviously anticipated this situation. She took a deep breath and quickly responded, "Your Majesty, please calm down. What happened last time was due to my ignorance and recklessness. My brother scolded me severely afterwards. It was all my fault. This time, I came here on my brother's orders. I have prepared a small gift and presented it to you to express my apology." After that, she presented the thing.

However, facing the thing in front of him, Ling Yan said nothing, and the whole scene instantly fell into dead silence.

The heavy atmosphere seemed to solidify into substance, making people feel depressed.

Ling Yan remained silent, sitting there like a sculpture.

And Meng Jinyao's heart became heavier as time passed, as if an invisible and powerful force was pressing down on her, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.

Meng Jinyao felt that sweat had begun to flow down her back and she felt extremely uncomfortable.

After a while, Runanji came in. Seeing this scene, he was also frightened. "Your Majesty, please calm down. I will take Miss Meng downstairs right away."
