Chapter 420 The mysterious eldest princess

Meng Yue slowly picked up the teacup, took a sip of the tea, and replied without any rush:

"With my wife and the king are here, why am I in a hurry?"

"Are you still angry with your brother? He used to do it for your own good..."

"Sister Wang, I don't want to mention the incident from that year."

What happened back then was the only thing that could make her mood fluctuate slightly.

Over the years, she has been trying hard to forget what happened back then. For this reason, she has developed a character of being unsurprising and unstable in dealing with things.

In the first few years, when Xena was sick, the queen would order someone to tell her that she would be anxious, but she would still not take a step here.

Over time, she knew that when Xana was sick, she would have an imperial doctor to treat her, so she no longer had to worry.

Until later, no one came to inform her about Xana.

Although she would order someone to secretly inquire about her current situation, she was just asking.

The queen finally picked up the teacup. After taking a sip of the tea, she put it down again. Then she raised her eyebrows and said calmly to herself:

"Xina is so willful. It's all my fault. I'm not doing anything. I usually neglect her to discipline her, which made her develop a curious attitude towards everything. She heard that a princess in Daning looks exactly like her, so she insisted on going to see it secretly. Now she saw the people and was captured. She didn't know if the enemy was embarrassed by it... Alas!"

Her words made Meng Yue stunned. Her originally calm face suddenly became a little more suspicious, and there was a hint of irresistible look in her eyes.

She calmed her eyes and looked at the queen, and asked softly in surprise.

"You said, Xana went to meet someone who looked exactly like her?"

Seeing that she was interested in this matter, the queen nodded indifferently.

"Yes, I think this is very interesting. People born in two countries will look exactly the same. Even Letu can admit it. If Xina is not your child, I will doubt whether they are twin sisters."

When the queen said this, she carefully observed Meng Yue's face.

I saw a trace of tears flashing in her eyes and then disappeared.

Her hands trembled and took the teacup on the table. Maybe she was too nervous and her hands were unstable. She knocked the teacup on the table and the tea immediately flowed to the ground.

"Xiaohong, Xiaohong."

She was so terrified that Xiaohong trotted in. When she saw the overturned teacup, she asked while holding the veil in her hand to wipe it.

"Princess, are you okay? Is the base of this cup unstable? It's all my fault. I didn't check it carefully when I took the cup, and I didn't burn you, right?"

Meng Yue didn't want to hear her nagging apology, but looked into the distance with empty eyes.

She probably only knows what she is thinking.

The queen sitting beside her seemed to see something. She raised the handkerchief in her hand and wiped the corner of her mouth, and continued:

"The war between Chu and Daning has been around for a long time. I have advised the king many times not to harass Daning, but he doesn't listen and always provoke disputes openly and secretly. Now, my son was caught by the other party and wanted to rescue him, but because the opponent's military camp was too tight, he had no idea how to start. He forced himself to attack the enemy's camp, and was afraid that he would hurt them when he rescued, so he would not be worth the effort. Now I really don't know what to do."

Hearing this, Meng Yue suddenly tightened her brows, raised her hazy eyes and said softly:

"Why did the king deliberately provoke trouble?"

The queen suddenly laughed helplessly and sadly.

"To this day, I don't know why this is. It's just that there are countless people who are homeless because of the uninterrupted war between the two countries, and countless soldiers who are killed and killed. I'm afraid that you can't comfort these dead souls who die in the room all day long.

Her words were harsh, but Meng Yue suddenly looked at her with a cold face.

"What do you mean? Are you blaming me? Could it be that the war between the two countries started because of me?"

The queen looked at her with a sad expression.

"I don't know if it's because of you. I only know that since he brought you back from Daning, he has been harassed the people around Daning. In order to deliberately provoke a war, I tried to ask you, but you avoided it. Today I came to tell you that countless people have died and injured in this war. Now your daughter and my son have been captured because of this war. It is still unknown whether they are alive or dead."

After saying this, she stood up from the chair and sighed as she walked forward:

"I envy you very much. I hide here all day to eat vegetarian food and chant Buddha's name, and don't care about anything. I don't care about worldly affairs and can live your quiet life peacefully. However, you are alone, but countless people live a wandering life. Perhaps only you and the king know why all this happened!"

After saying this, the domineering queen took her skirt and walked out the door, without saying a word, nor looking back.

She probably knew her temper. She was too stubborn. Otherwise, when Meng Xin forced her back, she would not have entered the ancestral hall directly and would not have even seen her daughter.

Moreover, she has lived here for more than twenty years, and she can't figure it out no matter how much she thinks about it.

The queen left, Meng Yue suddenly covered her mouth and started crying. Over the years, she had cried countless times, and she had hated and hurt, but she would not show it in front of the girl.

For some reason, her emotions suddenly collapsed, and the tears poured out like a flood of beasts, and they couldn't stop them.

Seeing this, the girl Xiaohong came over to comfort her in panic:

"Princess, don't cry, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"

Meng Yue waved her hands hard while crying.

"You go down first and let me be alone later."

She suddenly felt a little ridiculous. In order to be angry with Meng Xin, she entered the ancestral hall for many years, but Meng Xin actually started a war with Daning Kingdom during this period.

She had always thought that the war between the two countries was inevitable, but she did not expect that Meng Xin deliberately initiated it.

If he did this because of himself, then her sin would be too serious.

It seems that she can no longer sit idly by this matter, otherwise she will become the sinner who is criticized by thousands of people.

Thinking of this, she closed her eyes tightly, then opened them, and shouted to the outside:

"Xiaohong, change my clothes, I'm going out..."

She hasn't been out of this yard for more than 20 years. She has been escaping reality. She just wants to lock herself up here. She thinks that she won't think of the past that makes her sad.
