Thinking that Mrs. Zhou might have played a chess game that started decades ago, Su Yiqing was shocked and couldn't help but admire her.

You need to have more perseverance to start making plans in decades, especially at the age of Mrs. Zhou. Mrs. Cen from Yuanping Bo Mansion seemed to be about the same age as Mrs. Zhou. Mrs. Cen was not in good health before she got married, and she disappeared in less than two years.

When people are old and older, they may not be able to wake up again if they lie down that day. In this way, Mrs. Zhou is still planning like this, which is really not something that ordinary people can understand.

This is the case for successful people. They can tolerate what ordinary people cannot tolerate for a goal that may not be achieved, and have the patience and perseverance that others do not have, and the time and energy was wasted if they cannot achieve the goal without considering it.

...

After Mrs. Quan Si returned, she did not dare to delay. She changed her clothes and immediately rushed to the Meng family and told Mrs. Meng tactfully about Princess Ding's words.

In fact, Mrs. Meng did not expect much hope. After knowing this result, she didn't say anything. She just sighed, which was as expected.

Out of gratitude to Su Yiqing, Mrs. Quan Si thought that Mrs. Meng had a grudge and couldn't help but persuade: "Sister, Princess Ding is indeed in trouble. Such a thing is not something that the woman in the back home can interfere."

"I know, I just don't know how to explain to the Princess Guo County." Mrs. Meng sighed again. A person like Princess Guo County lowered his figure and begged her, but she couldn't do anything. Princess Guo County didn't know how to be disappointed.

Meng Guang caused such a problem earlier, which made her feel a little apologized to the Prince Guo’s Mansion. She wanted to do something to make up for it and ease the relationship between the two parties, so as not to be unable to get along after Meng Guang and Miss Lewen get married in the future. There is such an opportunity. If this matter can be done, I think no matter how much resentment the Prince Guo’s Mansion is, I think it will be able to calm down.

Now that things cannot be done, Princess Guo is probably even more resentful.

Mrs. Quan Si also sighed, thought for a while, and said, "Maybe things are not that bad? Maybe in a few days, Prince Guo will be back safely, and maybe things will be over."

"I hope so." Mrs. Meng could only say this, but hope is actually very slim for such a thing.

Just as he was saying this, the maid came to report that Mrs. Dong was here.

Mrs. Meng couldn't help frowning. It seemed that another trouble was happening. She didn't know what happened to the Dong family this time. She was really afraid of customers coming to her family these days, and all she asked for were difficult things.

What surprised Mrs. Meng was a little surprised. After Mrs. Dong came, she was not embarrassed or embarrassed when she saw Mrs. Quan Si. It seemed that she didn't mind Mrs. Quan Si's presence.

Mrs. Quan Si was also a little sorry to Mrs. Dong. She knew that a few days ago, Princess Ding asked her to target Mrs. Dong in such a way. The purpose was not to ask Mrs. Dong to speak up and ask for something that Prince Ding's Mansion was unwilling to help. What was specific? Although Mrs. Dong did not say it clearly in front of her, she could also guess what she heard later, some of the situations in the Dong family.

Mr. Dong was demoted to the next level by the official position, no wonder Mrs. Dong was anxious.

However, it is really difficult for Princess Ding. There are so many relatives who want to help the Princess Ding Mansion whenever there are big or small matters. How can the princess help alone? If she refuses directly, she will definitely hurt the other person's face and even be hated by others.

After Mrs. Dong sat down, she chatted about family matters and brought a message.

The news that shocked Mrs. Meng and Mrs. Quan Si was just shocked, but it was just shocking. This matter had almost nothing to do with them, and it was just a topic of conversation after dinner.

General Shao Li's wife disappeared, and her children disappeared. The Shao family was extremely anxious and searched everywhere.

However, General Shao Li's wife is a female family member. A young woman just kept saying it for no reason and finally affected her reputation. The Shao family did not dare to look for it with great fanfare, but this news could not be hidden.

Speaking of which, Shao Li is also a relatively famous figure in Yancheng. Although General Shao Li’s wife doesn’t go out to socialize much, her experience is too legendary and is an example of envy of the women in Yancheng. Therefore, Yancheng Lady Circle is quite curious about General Shao’s wife.

In the early years, many people ran to the Shao family intentionally or unintentionally, just to see what kind of charming character this prodigal son like Shao Li was.

But it disappointed everyone. General Shao Li's wife had nothing special in terms of appearance and temperament. She had a graceful appearance and a gentle personality, just like most inner-house wives.

After being shocked, Mrs. Meng couldn't help but ask Mrs. Dong: "How could this happen? Has the Shao family sent someone to find her?"

Mrs. Dong said, "I have heard that it was said that two days ago, Mr. Shao and his wife had a fight with General Shao Li, probably for money or something. In short, it was very unreasonable. Later, I heard that General Shao Li's wife was missing. The Shao family was naturally anxious. Such a living person, with children, had no one particularly familiar with them on weekdays, and they didn't know where they could go."

Out of sensitivity to the court, Mrs. Meng knew that this was definitely not a simple dispute between the inner house. If a woman ran away from home with her children, she would be involved in the court if she was not in trouble.

After all, General Shao Li is now stationed at the border, but his wife and children are missing, which will make people feel uneasy.

Speaking of which, General Shao Li and King Ding were almost in Yancheng, Mrs. Meng also heard some rumors, saying that General Shao Li went to the border this time to suppress the king and the king's balance technique.

However, at that time, everyone's eyes were staring at the Ding Prince's Mansion, and no one cared about the Shao family, especially General Shao Li's wife, who was such a person who never left the house. After General Shao Li married a singing girl as his wife, everyone did not pay much attention to it anymore.

Mrs. Dong said: "Now the Shao family is in chaos, so I am anxious. I look for it like a headless fly. It's really embarrassing to say that Mrs. Shao is really bullying people. No wonder Mrs. Shao Li wants to run away from home with her children."

"Are you really running away from home?" Mrs. Meng was a little unbelievable.

Mrs. Dong said, "Of course, I heard that since General Shao left Yancheng, Mr. Shao and his wife went to trouble General Shao every now and then. How could a weak woman resist the couple's unreasonable trouble? The elders of the Shao family did not look at General Shao's wife. For a while, General Shao's wife avoided the sacred temple, but there was still a high hall, so it was not easy to live in the sacred temple for a long time."

Mrs. Meng and Mrs. Quan Si looked at each other, and both of them felt that things would not be that simple.

This Mr. Shao and his wife have been in trouble for a day or two, especially Mr. Shao, who is too unreasonable, doesn't have to give birth all day long, and they know they need money and rely on their younger brother.

For a while, Master Shao had the idea of ​​the Meng family and wanted to marry the Meng family.

Who dares to have such a family? Mrs. Meng refused without any consideration and refused without hesitation. Even if her son could not have a prominent family, even if he married a peasant daughter, he could not ask Mr. Shao to suck blood like this.

Mrs. Quan Si remembered that once she went to Ding Prince's Mansion, Princess Ding seemed to be quite curious about General Shao's wife. She asked a lot about General Shao's wife. She also deliberately asked about it. In fact, there was no need to inquire too much. Everyone knows about General Shao's wife's experience.

I don’t know if Princess Ding is interested in this matter. It seems that she will find another opportunity to go to Prince Ding’s Mansion tomorrow.

Just as she was thinking, Mrs. Dong suddenly lowered her voice and said mysteriously: "I also heard a message saying that maybe this has nothing to do with the dispute between the inner house."

"What does it mean?" Mrs. Meng couldn't help but feel curious.

Mrs. Dong wanted to speak but stopped, and seemed to have something to say.

Mrs. Meng said impatiently: "Don't keep it a secret. The Shao family has nothing to do with us. What else can we avoid in our family?"

Mrs. Dong said a little embarrassedly: "It's not a protection, and this news is not completely unrelated to us. You know, General Shao's biggest opponent is now. As soon as General Shao's wife disappeared, some villains naturally muttered behind their backs and made random guesses."

"What are you guessing?" Mrs. Meng could guess something vaguely, but she still looked at Mrs. Dong and wanted to ask for a certificate.

Mrs. Dong said: "I will say first, this is what someone else said, and I don't know whether it is true or not. I just came to tell my sister that there is now rumors outside that this matter is related to Ding Wang Mansion, and it is said that it is..."

Speaking of the key point, Mrs. Dong stopped again.

Mrs. Meng urged again, "Just say it quickly, guess what?"

Mrs. Dong then said: "When General Shao was on the border, he was a little disagreeable with King Ding. It is said that the personal soldiers of the two men fought a fight... Some speculations were that King Ding was holding a grudge and could not deal with General Shao at the border. When he returned to Yancheng, he took advantage of General Shao's absence to cause trouble for his family."

"This is simply nonsense. How can there be such a guess?" Mrs. Meng couldn't help but say, "This is all the talkative gossip. It's all about it. No matter how King Ding is, he won't be troubled by his wife and children. Besides, how can he disappear for no reason?"

Mrs. Dong said: "Sister, I just said that this is what others said. I was afraid that my sister wouldn't know, so I came to sue it first. After all, King Ding is the son-in-law of the Meng family, and the outside world is talking about it now. "

Mrs. Quan Si was concerned about the affairs of the Shao family and interrupted: "Speaking of all, the Shao family is also a family of generals. General Shao went out to war, and his family was not ordinary people. How could outsiders bully it at will? The Shao family is not without rivals in Yancheng. They should be guarded against. If they really want the opponent to do anything, they should not be so silent. Perhaps General Shao's wife was impatient with the unreasonable troubles of Master Shao's family, so she avoided it. The outsiders didn't know what they were saying, and it was spreading around. This was why there was such a terrible rumor?"

"Maybe." Mrs. Dong said this, but she didn't agree. A few living people just disappeared out of thin air without leaving any clues. This is not a simple matter.

Mrs. Meng also felt that it was a bit serious. If it were an ordinary official, this matter might not have had such a big impact. However, General Shao Li's wife was different. Shao Li went out to war, and his family was protected or monitored by the court.

Meng Ye was also a general at the time. As the general's wife, she naturally had a better understanding of the inside story than others. The soldiers went out to fight, and in order to prevent any unfaithful intentions, the family was equivalent to hostages.

This is also the reason why the soldiers guarding the border and their families cannot go there together.

When Ding Wang was guarding the border, many nanny and palace maids were sent to Ding Wang's Mansion, saying that they were taking care of the pregnant Princess Ding, but in fact it was just a kind of surveillance.

The emperor was afraid of King Ding, for fear that King Ding, who had heavy troops, had a strange intention. He sent General Shao Li to suppress King Ding. Inside, he sent a nanny to King Ding's mansion, with the purpose of watching Princess Ding so that the mother and son would not disappear, and there was no way to solve the problem of establishing the king.

Perhaps the court placed all the attention on the Dingwang Mansion and ignored the Shao family.

If you are holding heavy troops, Dingwang may have a different intention. Could it be that the Shao family will not?

Mrs. Meng couldn't help but think of another possibility. If General Shao had any unfair intentions, he might find a way to take his wife and children away. This matter may not be a simple family dispute, but a deep court dispute.

Or maybe someone wants to sow discord from it, what happened to General Shao’s wife and son, and make General Shao angry?

Let’s talk about the current rumors, but for no reason, it was involved in King Ding. General Shao’s wife has only been missing for a few days? I don’t know anything, so why do some people think it’s related to King Ding? Those who have heard such news must have ulterior motives.

Out of political sensitivity, Mrs. Meng's intuition, she asked General Shao and her children to disappear, without seeing anyone in their lives or without seeing the body in their lives, and might have a big storm in the court.

The Ding Wang Mansion, which is due to the government's political center, will become the target of public criticism. Such rumors are to make it realistic. The Ding Wang and the Shao family are in a disagreement, and they take advantage of General Shao's absence to attack General Shao's family.

Everyone talks to make money, and Mrs. Meng is also accustomed to using rumors. Naturally, she knows the impact of rumors on the development of the situation. I am afraid that everyone will stare at Princess Ding now.
