Chapter five hundred and seventh decisive(1/2)
Su Yiqing asked herself that she had never discriminated against those poor women whose fate was more miserable than others. It was just that she had always followed the rules of this world and did not want those who crossed the line.
Private life-long decisions are not tolerated by the world here, and human feelings cannot override the law. This is a famous saying she saw in her previous life. If it were changed here, it means that the rules of this world cannot be broken.
There is also a crime in the laws of the Zhou Dynasty: seducing a married man, Meng Guang has already been engaged, and the marriage is still a marriage granted by the Holy Emperor. There is no way for both parties to go back on it, so naturally he is considered a married man, and destroying the marriage granted by the emperor is much more serious than a married man.
..
Not only is this marriage known to everyone, anyone who is willing can find out about it. In this case, if Shuiyue is still unclearly involved with Meng Guang, it is against etiquette and law, and it should not be done.
Thinking of this, Su Yiqing couldn't help but glance at Lu Teng. This maid would change her gaze at a suitable moment.
What should she do about this matter now? Now that she knows it, she can't pretend that she doesn't know it. The news that Lu Teng has just received is obviously not known to others. This kind of matter must be resolved quickly, otherwise it will cause uproar in the city and hurt two people.
Family face.
If I tell Mrs. Meng, with Mrs. Meng's methods, I'm afraid the attack will be very severe if she is angry. If I don't kill Boren then, Boren will die because of me, but it will be troublesome.
Su Yiqing thought about it carefully and ordered Lu Teng to call Meng Guang.
Prince Ding's work is very efficient.
As soon as Meng Guang wanted to go out, he was blocked by the guards of Prince Ding's palace. They said that the princess wanted to see him, and then they didn't give Meng Guang a chance to change into more grand clothes. They almost suppressed him.
In front of Su Yiqing.
Meng Guang was kicked and uneasy along the way. He was the brother-in-law of Prince Ding, and his second sister was a royal concubine. But these guards dared to be so rude to him. They were obviously confident.
If he had done anything wrong recently, it would have been his affair with Miss Shui.
In the side hall of Prince Ding's Mansion, Meng Guang's legs couldn't help but feel weak when he saw Su Yiqing, who was luxuriously dressed and made up exquisitely. Her eyes were cold.
Although he grew up in a military camp and is more courageous than ordinary men, in the military camp, superiors and subordinates are even more clearly distinguished. In front of superior officers, low-level soldiers dare not make a sound. His father deliberately trains him and does not allow him to speak outside.
He is a child of the Meng family, just like a child of ordinary people, everything is the same as others.
Therefore, he did not receive any special care in the military camp, so he had a habitual respect for superiors.
Su Yiqing looked at Meng Guang coldly and said nothing, until Meng Guang felt guilty. It took him a long time to remember to salute. Then she squeezed out a sentence: "Greetings to my second sister."
"There's no need to be too polite." Su Yiqing said coldly, "Brother Guang came to Prince Ding's Mansion on the day of the wedding, right? Why haven't you ever thought of coming to see me, your second sister, on weekdays?"
"Second sister... It's not that I don't want to come. It's just that I've been in the military camp... I've only been home for a few days during the Chinese New Year... No, I don't have time, no, I'm afraid of disturbing the second sister..." Meng Guang said these words correctly.
Extremely stuttering. Like a man, after saying two sentences, his face turned red like a little girl.
"What are you afraid of?" Su Yiqing said coldly.
"I...I'm not afraid." Meng Guang stuttered again.
Su Yiqing looked him up and down carefully. He looked very heroic and tall. He looked like a soldier at first glance, but his aura was a bit lacking. His thick eyebrows and big eyes looked a bit silly. Neither Meng Ye nor Mrs. Meng were timid.
generation, the sons they gave birth to were nothing like them.
Meng Guang was so frightened by Su Yiqing's sight, but he didn't dare to move, he just lowered his head and looked at the ground.
Su Yiqing asked calmly: "What have you been doing at home recently?"
Meng Guangdao: "I didn't do anything. I just stayed at home and read books within less than a month after returning home."
Su Yiqing asked casually: "Oh! What books are you reading?"
"That's just some military strategies." Meng Guang didn't even dare to raise his head when he replied.
Su Yiqing asked: "Have you ever been to the Academy?"
Meng Guang said: "Is this true? My father and mother used to invite me to be my husband alone. After that, they went to the military camp to learn the art of war with everyone. They never entered an ordinary academy."
"The academy I'm talking about is not an ordinary academy." Su Yiqing smiled, "I'm talking about the academies in the west of the city, such as Red Sleeve Academy, Green Willow Academy and so on."
"No, I haven't been there. My parents don't let me go to that kind of place." Meng Guang waved his hand hurriedly.
"Then your parents asked you to go to Bibo Tower?" Su Yiqing suddenly turned cold again.
Meng Guang was shocked at first, and then subconsciously wanted to deny it, but for some reason, when the words reached his mouth, he swallowed them again, with a stubborn look on his face.
Su Yiqing stopped beating around the bush and said: "Since I'm here to find you, I'm not just looking for hearsay. I just want to hear your side of the story. Maybe there's any misunderstanding and I'll give you a chance to explain."
Meng Guang clenched his fists, and after a while he said stubbornly: "I... and Yue'er really love each other, and Yue'er is a good and innocent girl."
"You are quite brave." Su Yiqing softened her expression, "Since you truly love each other, do you plan to stay together forever?"
Meng Guang nodded vigorously.
Su Yiqing chuckled softly: "What are you going to do? Don't forget, you are still engaged, and you plan to take a concubine before getting married, so that the good girl you say is innocent will become a concubine that everyone looks down upon. Or do you think that as long as the two of them are sincere?
Falling in love is enough,
Others don’t need anything? Are you full of love? Or maybe this good girl feels that as long as she can stay by your side, she is willing to be a slave, and you also feel that being by your side is a supreme honor, even if she is in the eyes of others.
Are you willing to humble yourself?"
"I..." Meng Ye hesitated for a while and then said: "I will fight to the death in the battlefield and exchange my military exploits for the opportunity to stay with Yue'er forever. I will not wrong Yue'er... just like General Shao."
"What a loud tone." Su Yiqing laughed again, "Okay, I don't mean to underestimate you, but there is no war at the border right now. I may not give you a chance to fight to the death for a while. What should I do now?"
Meng Guang was stunned by the question and suddenly knelt down with a plop and prayed: "Please help me, second sister."
Su Yiqing's face turned cold again: "Help you, how can I help you? At the risk of being disrespectful, I will ask the emperor to cancel the marriage for you. Or do you want me to convince my father and mother to delay the marriage at Guojun Prince's Palace?
Instead of getting married, you drag the girl into an old girl until you win the military exploits on the battlefield that will make the emperor show mercy to you, a pair of infatuated lovers?"
This...Meng Guang is not a shameless person after all, and he really cannot say something irresponsible.
Su Yiqing sighed softly: "That's all, I don't want to beat the mandarin ducks. Since you said that you and this Yue'er really love each other and would not marry anyone but Qing, then forcing you to marry Miss Lewen is just harming this girl.
To add a pair of resentful couples to the world and make the two houses become enemies, why not try to cancel this marriage and grant your wish."
"Thank you, second sister." Meng Guang was ecstatic and kowtowed repeatedly.
"Thank you first..." Su Yiqing waved her hand to stop him, "You were granted a marriage by imperial decree. It doesn't mean you can dissolve it if you want. Since you think your love is more important than anything else, you know that this relationship affects the interests of the family.
, it may even bring disaster to the family, but you still ignore it. Then just give up everything.
Abandon, I will discuss with my father and mother to expel you from the family, and you will no longer be a member of the Meng family. As for the future, if you are really promising and still remember the family's kindness in raising you, you can come back. This will be considered a favor to the Prince of Guo County.
There is an explanation, and although the Holy Spirit will still punish you, it will not be so severe that the family cannot bear it."
"Second sister..." Meng Guang was completely stunned. He had never thought of leaving the Meng family.
Su Yiqing stopped talking nonsense to him and finally said: "Think about it for yourself. You don't have to make a decision right now. You can come back to me after you think about it. But you have to restrain yourself during this time and don't go to Bibo again."
Go upstairs."
After saying that, Su Yiqing no longer gave Meng Guang a chance to speak and had someone take him out.
The affairs of the Meng Mansion cannot be hidden from Mrs. Meng.
It's just that some time ago, Mrs. Meng was troubled by the Chu family's affairs, and she didn't bother to keep an eye on her son for a while. Later, when she was in a irritable mood, none of the maids and the mother-in-law dared to say anything, so she noticed it too late.
This time when she came back from the nunnery, a mother-in-law who wanted to take credit immediately reported the matter to her. It was also because Meng Guang was invited away by the guards of Prince Ding's house at the door of his house. The noise was too loud and he couldn't hide it.
.
Mrs. Meng was furious and immediately came to Meng Guang and scolded her.
It wasn't until Mrs. Meng finished scolding that Meng Guang dared to tell his second sister that he had come to him and how to deal with her.
After hearing this, Mrs. Meng felt like the world was spinning, her vision went dark, she fell down on a chair, pointed at Meng Guang and couldn't say a word for a long time.
"Mother, mother, calm down." Meng Guang became nervous when he saw this.
Mrs. Meng breathed for a long time, pointed at her son with trembling fingers and said: "You, you are really my good son. You even gave up your parents and clan for a woman with fireworks."
"Mother, my son does not want..."
"Shut up." Mrs. Meng scolded her sternly, "You still dare to talk back? Just as your second sister said, just go out of the house. Remember, you are not allowed to take anything with you except the clothes you are wearing. Go quickly.
, lest your father comes back and is unable to leave even if he wants to, and with your father's temper, he will have to beat you to death to apologize."
"Mother." Meng Ye was stunned for a moment. He was mentally prepared to be scolded by his mother, but he didn't expect his mother to drive him away without saying a word.
Mrs. Meng immediately called her maid, and without saying a word, she drove Meng Guang out of the house.
…
In the palace of Guojun Prince.
Princess Guojun also heard about this, and it’s no wonder she got the news. Mrs. Meng just kicked her son out of the door. All the maids and women below saw it. Naturally, she had a quick talk. The news reached Princess Guojun’s ears.
.
Princess Guojun, who felt sorry for her daughter, immediately wanted to come to the door to settle the score with the Meng family. What was going on? The Meng family didn't feel sorry for their son, but what about her daughter Lewen?
The nun next to Princess Guojun persuaded her to come down, saying that it was better to discuss this matter with Old Concubine Xue first, so as not to cause trouble by making arbitrary decisions and make the old concubine angry again. This was not a glorious thing after all.
Princess Guojun thought about it. If this marriage really couldn't be consummated, she would have to bother Old Concubine Xue to go to the palace and beg the old concubines in the palace to help talk to see if the marriage could be cancelled.
Anyway, she didn't want to marry her daughter into the Meng family, an unruly family. Now that the Meng family's son made a mistake on his own and had nothing to do with her Guojun Palace, she was happy to cancel the marriage.
After Princess Guojun told Mrs. Xue exactly what happened.
Mrs. Xue half-closed her eyes and asked, "What do you want?"
"This marriage was granted by the Holy One. Now that the sons of the Meng family have done such a thing, it is naturally their fault." Princess Guojun said confidently, "I, the Prince of Guojun, can sue them in front of the Holy One."
