Dressed as a concubine instead of a concubine
Chapter 247 Past Events
When Meng Xiyue arrived at the prison, he saw Wen sitting in the only place in the prison that could be exposed to sunlight, flipping through a book calmly.
Meng Xiyue recognized the book. It was a book on psychology that she had copied in Nanrong Kingdom.
After three years, Wen seemed to have not changed at all, but she always felt that something had changed.
"Auntie."
Hearing her shout, Wen raised her head, as if she couldn't believe her appearance. She closed her eyes and opened them again. When she found that she was still there, she was sure that it was not an illusion.
"Yue'er, you're back?"
"Yes."
Meng Xiyue smiled at her, then asked the jailer to open the cell door and walked in.
Wen was so excited that she wanted to hug her at first, but then she thought of her current identity and lowered her head guiltily.
"You should already know your life experience. It is your aunt who has let you down."
"I want to know what happened back then. Can you tell me about it, Auntie?"
Meng Xiyue walked forward, helped her sit down, and sat down opposite her.
Her expressionless face looked as if she wanted to listen to someone else's story.
Seeing her like this, Wen was filled with heartache and guilt. If she had not concealed the truth, Meng Xiyue should have always been a carefree princess, raised up by the prince and princess, and would not have suffered so many grievances.
"That year, I happened to go to the mountain to pray for blessings. On the way back, I met Princess Ning'an. I didn't know her identity at the time. She suddenly handed a child to me and asked me to help take care of it first."
At that time, she was about to give birth, and she was timid by nature, so she was unwilling. However, Princess Ning'an did not give her any reason to refuse. She explained everything and left.
She had no choice but to bear to abandon the child in the wilderness, so she thought of placing Meng Xiyue in the yard at the foot of the mountain first.
But who knew that when she reached the yard at the foot of the mountain, her stomach suddenly started to feel uncomfortable.
"I am weak and it is not easy to get pregnant. That child is my hope for a long time. No matter whether it is a boy or a girl, she will be the driving force of my life in the future. However, for some reason, I gave birth to a stillborn baby."
Speaking of this, Wen's eyes became red and she tightly grasped the book in her hands with both hands. It can be seen that the departure of the child was a great blow to her.
"At that time, I felt ashamed to face the master, and I felt that there was no hope. I was about to follow the child. At the moment when I was about to take action, I heard your cry."
She didn't know why, but when she heard the crying, she felt like she came back to life. She felt that Meng Xiyue might be a gift from God to her, her child who was reluctant to leave her and came back to accompany her.
She walked forward and hugged Meng Xiyue. After thinking for a whole night, she made the boldest decision in her life.
Let Meng Xiyue be her daughter instead of her dead child.
She didn't know the identity of Meng Xiyue's biological mother, but she thought that it was irresponsible for her to hand her daughter over to a stranger like this, and she was not worthy of being a parent.
Since Meng Xiyue has come to his side, she is his daughter.
"When I decided to keep you here, I threw away all the things your biological mother left for you. I didn't expect that someone with ulterior motives would pick them up and pretend to be you."
Cui Panxi's biological mother was working in that yard at the time. When she saw that the clothes thrown away by the owner were children's clothes, she thought of picking them up and giving them to her own daughter.
She didn't expect that there was a valuable jade pendant inside. She felt guilty and didn't dare to exchange the jade pendant for money, so she kept it. As a result, the Ning'an King and his wife could not find their daughter for a long time.
"In fact, Prince Ning'an and his wife also visited our Meng Mansion back then."
Meng Qingxiang was the local prefect. Naturally, Prince Ning'an needed the prefect's help in finding his daughter.
A banquet was held in the mansion to welcome her, but she did not attend.
"I was ill at the time, and because of my low status, my wife did not allow me to appear, so I stayed in my own courtyard and did not meet Princess Ning'an."
"If I knew at that time that you were the daughter that Princess Ning'an was looking for, I would definitely send you back."
Everything happened by accident. Wen was a woman in the back house. She was oblivious to what was happening outside and only had Meng Qingxiang in her eyes and heart.
She only knew that Princess Ning'an was looking for someone, and she didn't know that they were looking for her daughter.
Later, Princess Ning'an found Cui Panxi and left Qingzhou. She didn't take the matter to heart at all.
She always thought that Meng Xiyue's biological parents no longer wanted her.
But no matter what, it was ultimately because of her selfishness that she concealed Meng Xiyue's true identity, which led to the Ning'an King and his wife not finding their real daughter.
She is the culprit of all this.
After hearing what she said, Meng Xiyue didn't know who to blame. If it weren't for Wen, she might have been dead long ago. She was her savior and had always been nice to her over the years.
The Ning'an King and his wife were being hunted and deceived, but they did nothing wrong.
She opened her mouth and finally asked, "How did the Ning'an King and his wife discover my identity?"
"After they found out that Cui Panxi was fake, they went to Qingzhou to continue looking for their daughter. I heard that they searched for her house by house for almost three years but still couldn't find her."
"I don't know why, but I suddenly thought of the master. Thinking that we were also from Qingzhou, I came to the Meng family and asked to meet everyone in the Meng family. That's how Princess Ning'an recognized me at first sight."
Princess Ning'an remembered her appearance firmly in her heart. Even though almost twenty years had passed, she still remembered it. This was also the only clue for her to find her daughter.
"I knew I couldn't hide it any longer, and I didn't plan to hide it anymore, so I told them your true identity."
As she said this, Wen's face was already in tears. She grabbed Meng Xiyue's hand and choked up, "I'm sorry, it's Auntie who is sorry for you. You should have been a princess who grew up under thousands of pampering, but because of my selfishness, you became the concubine's daughter of a small official and suffered all kinds of grievances."
This truth came too late for Meng Xiyue. She was now the Queen of Nanrong Kingdom and no longer needed the empty identity of a princess.
At this time, her true identity was just a nuisance to her.
"Everything is fate." Meng Xiyue sighed and held Wen's hand tightly. "You have always been very good to me. I don't blame you."
Although in Wen's heart, the most important person is her father, she has never been harsh on herself and has given herself everything.
If it weren't for her, she didn't know what her life would be like, so she didn't blame her.
"Yue'er."
Wen shook her head. "I didn't protect you well, and you suffered so much injustice. You should blame me."
Meng Xiyue didn't say anything else. She helped Wen up and said, "I'll take you home."
