Dressed as a concubine instead of a concubine

Hearing this, Meng Xiyue finally looked up at her, "Aren't you afraid that your father will scold you?"

"Just scold me if you want." Meng Yun'er murmured, "I'm used to it anyway."

Meng Xiyue sighed, "Since we are here, we don't care about this day. You can go back with your second sister and the others the day after tomorrow."

Even if they all go back, they won’t just blame one person.

"Second sister and third sister don't plan to go back." Meng Yun'er buried her head deeply.

"Not going back?" Meng Xiyue sneered, "It is never their turn to make the decision on this matter. Once the two-day deadline is up, they have to go back even if they don't want to."

Seeing her so confident, Meng Yun'er said nothing more.

But when she returned to the room, she saw Meng Qingge and Meng Zirong were already waiting for her in the room.

"Second sister, third sister."

Meng Yuner lowered her head guiltily.

"What did you say when you went to Fifth Sister's room?" Meng Zirong asked sternly.

"Nothing." Meng Yun'er quickly shook her head.

"It seems that Yun'er is not going to stand on the same side with us. In this case, you should go back tomorrow and let your mother arrange a marriage for you."

Meng Qingge's cold words fell into Meng Yun'er's ears, and she knelt on the ground in fear.

"Sister, I'm still young and not in a hurry to get married."

Meng Qingge walked in front of her, squatted down, and said sternly, "I know you and Fifth Sister have had a good relationship since childhood, but you have to know who is in charge of the Meng family. Grandmother is old, how long can she protect you?"

Meng Yun'er lowered her head, her body trembling slightly. She would never have a say in the Meng family.

Her shoulders drooped weakly, and she finally spoke out all of Meng Xiyue's words.

"She said she would send us back the day after tomorrow?"

Meng Zirong frowned. It seemed that even if they didn't want to, they would be forced to leave.

"She dares?" Meng Qingge slammed the table, "If she does that, she won't be able to enter the Meng family anymore."

"But she is now protected by Prince Qi. Even if her parents are unhappy, they will not openly quarrel with her."

Meng Zirong understood that whoever could gain the favor of the prince would have the right to speak, and it was obvious that they were now in a weak position.

"Then you can't really go back. If you go back, there will be even less chance."

"We still have one day left. As long as we can find a chance to be alone with the prince, everything will turn around."

Meng Zirong said, looking at Meng Qingge, "Second sister, the prince has a bad impression of you now, why don't you..."

Meng Qingge paused, and immediately understood what she was thinking, but even though she was annoyed, there was no better way now.

"I don't care about using my beauty to please others. You are good at this. Just go ahead and do it."

Meng Zirong was not angry when people said that she used her beauty to please men. Although she was not as beautiful as Meng Xiyue, she also had a seductive temperament. This was something she had known since she was a child.

It was with these eyes that her aunt won over her father.

She can also take down the prince.

Her idea was good, but the prince did not show up until dinner the next day.

"Yue'er, is the prince so busy with official duties? He doesn't even come back after dark."

Meng Xiyue raised her eyebrows, "There is a banquet in the palace today. He came back late and won't come here for dinner. Let's eat."

Banquet? Meng Zirong's expression flickered. Wouldn't that mean drinking? God really helped her.

So, after dinner, she quietly slipped out of Mengxi Garden alone and waited on the road that the prince had to pass.

The wind was blowing coldly and she was shivering in her gauze dress. Fortunately, she finally waited for someone.

Looking at the tall and broad figure not far away, her heart suddenly became hot.

Thinking that she would soon be in his warm arms, she couldn't help but walk forward quickly.

"Who?"

"Greetings, Your Majesty. This is my daughter Meng Zirong."

"Meng Zirong?" Xie Junyi curled the corners of his mouth as he looked at the woman in front of him who was dressed coolly and had delicate makeup.

"What are you doing here so late at night?"

Meng Zirong raised her head and gave him a shy look, "My little girl, I couldn't sleep at night, so I came out for a walk."

"Oh, the autumn nights are chilly. Miss Meng, you should go back and rest early if you are dressed like this."

Let’s talk, Xie Junyi wanted to bypass her and leave.

Meng Zirong knew that this was her last chance, and in a hurry she ignored her daughter's modesty and reached out to grab the corner of Xie Junyi's clothes.

She called out softly, with her voice mixed.

"Your Majesty, my daughter is lost. Can you take her back home?"

Hearing this, Xie Junyi squatted down and reached out to pinch her chin.

Looking directly at his handsome face, Meng Zirong felt like her heart was about to jump out.

"Are you trying to seduce this king?"

Meng Zirong didn't expect him to speak so bluntly, and her face turned red.

"I...I do admire Your Majesty."

"There are many people who admire me, so who do you think you are?" Xie Junyi shook his hand away fiercely.

"I allowed you to stay for two days for Yue'er's sake, but you didn't know how to be grateful. You even wanted to use her power to take away her favor from me. It's really her misfortune to have sisters like you."

"No, Your Majesty, we want to serve you together with Yue'er..."

"You guys are really capable of stealing a man from your own sister."

Xie Junyi's eyes became unusually cold, "Besides, who gave you the confidence that this king would like you?"

"I..." Meng Zirong opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.

The development of this matter was completely different from what she expected.

"Since you can't sleep, then kneel here and you are not allowed to go back before dawn."

"Your Majesty."

Meng Zirong was terrified. She wondered if she would survive if she knelt for a whole night in such weather.

But no matter how she cried and screamed, Xie Junyi didn't even look at her.

If you want to take a chance, you always have to accept the price of failure.

As for Meng Qingge, seeing that Meng Zirong had not come back yet, she thought that the matter was settled.

Although she was somewhat resentful that Prince Qi only cared about appearance and did not understand talent, she was still somewhat happy at the thought of being able to stay in the palace and teach Meng Xiyue a lesson.

Thinking about tomorrow, I must mock Meng Xiyue.

She stayed in the room all night without sleeping. When it was dawn, she heard some noise nearby and got up quickly to see what was going on.

"this…"

Meng Zirong was seen looking pale and was being carried back.

She was speechless. This prince was too brave. He was going to torture people to death.

The one who brought the people here was Yin Wumei. Looking at the three stupid people, she sneered.

"The prince has ordered the three young ladies to pack up their things immediately and return to the Meng family."

"Go home, Zirong, she is not..."

Meng Qingge was stunned. Shouldn't the reward be kept? Why should it be sent back?

"Ms. Meng San, you offended the prince last night and were punished by him to kneel all night. Fortunately, you are lucky and your life is not in danger."

She waved her hands impatiently, "Hurry up and pack up. The prince will send someone to take you back in person later."
