Dressed as a concubine instead of a concubine

"Don't worry, Sister Mei. I know what to do."

Meng Xiyue forced a smile.

"You have always had your own ideas in mind, I know that, but..." Mei Ran frowned.

"Many things are beyond your control. He is the King of Qi, the most honorable person in the Great Yuan Kingdom. If he doesn't let you go, it will be difficult for you to escape."

Yes, if it was so easy to escape, she would have escaped from the beginning and would not have waited until today.

But I have to give it a try. If I don't run away, I will really have to become his concubine.

"Yue'er, there are so many helpless things in this world, and we as women have an even harder time."

Mei Ran sighed, "Especially your and my actions, which violate the world's constraints on women, are destined to have a bumpy road."

"I'm not as great as my sister. I just want to live an ordinary life."

Meng Xiyue didn't understand why she couldn't get what she wanted even though she didn't fight for power or profit.

"But your appearance doesn't match the freedom you want."

Mei Ran didn't know how to explain to her that what men in this world fear most is women's right to freedom.

Men think that women should stay in the mansion, rely on them for survival, and should not have the idea of ​​leaving.

"Forget it. After all, I just can't adapt to this world."

Meng Xiyue smiled self-deprecatingly. She thought that if she lived a low-key life and was an obedient woman, she could live well in this feudal society.

But the fact that she doesn't want to be a concubine makes her an exception.

"Yue'er, no matter what happens, as long as you are alive, there is hope, and there will always be a way."

Mei Ran was probably afraid that Meng Xiyue would be unable to get over it. She knew that this seemingly weak sister had her own persistence in her heart.

But this life was something Meng Xiyue had worked so hard to get, so how could she possibly be so unhappy?

She would not die for anyone, no matter how much she loved that person.

"Of course I have to live well. I also want to see Sister Mei become famous and become the first female teacher in the world. Then we will open a bigger school."

"Well, I hope we can all get what we want."

Mei Ran looked at her own school and smiled with relief, "The entrance exam will be held in ten days. I hope that besides Xuan Er, there will be someone else who will be admitted to the high school."

If two of her six students could become successful candidates, no one would consider her a woman and would not send their children to her.

Her Mei Ran Academy can also truly gain a foothold in the capital.

"Most definitely."

Meng Xiyue has always had confidence in Mei Ran's knowledge.

When Meng Xiyue was about to leave, Mei Ran spoke again.

"Yue'er, no matter how difficult it is, we still have Sister Mei."

"I'll make a note of it. I'll come see you next time."

Meng Xiyue waved her hand, her eyes slightly red, not knowing when they would meet next time.

Back in the carriage, she looked at Asaka, "Do you know what I'm going to do?"

"Whatever the young lady does, Asaka will follow."

Although she was not very smart, she always listened to Meng Xiyue's words and would not hesitate even if she was asked to die.

"Okay, there is a carriage not far ahead. When the two carriages get closer, follow me and slip into the other carriage."

"it is good."

After they quietly changed a carriage, the original carriage left the city as if nothing had happened, but they stayed.

Meng Xiyue looked at the departing carriage, hoping that it could last a little longer.

However, he probably wouldn't notice it so early. Right now, he should still be in the palace, accompanying his princess.

Prince Ning'an would return to the capital to meet the emperor once every three years, but since Princess Rong'an was born, it has always been Prince Ning'an who returned to the capital by himself.

This is the first time that Princess Rong An is brought back, and both the princess and the prince are here.

This shows how favored Princess Rong'an is in Prince Ning'an's Mansion.

If it weren't for the late emperor's decree that Prince Ning'an's daughter must marry the prince, I'm afraid Prince Ning'an would not be willing to let his daughter return to Beijing.

Speaking of which, Princess Rong'an was also pitiful. When the princess was pregnant with her, she was hunted down by spies from the enemy country.

On the way back to the capital, she gave birth prematurely. In order to save her life, the princess entrusted her to a passing woman, intending to pick her up when everything was safe.

Unexpectedly, the princess was chased by spies and was seriously injured. She was in a coma for a month before waking up.

After waking up, he forgot what happened before and didn't remember where he put his daughter.

The followers and maids who protected her on the way also died, and there was no way to trace the whereabouts of Princess Rong'an.

Prince Ning'an checked all the routes the princess had taken, but still couldn't find her whereabouts.

It was not until five years later that the princess recovered her memory after falling and remembered that she had entrusted her daughter to a woman near Qingyun City.

At that time, he left a jade pendant to his daughter as a token of trust.

But it has been too long, and we don't know who the woman is, so it's hard to find her.

In the end, it was a man who pawned the jade pendant that provided the clue and led to the discovery of Cui Panxi.

It turned out that the woman was Cui Panxi's adoptive mother, but she had passed away. She was raised by her gambler adoptive father and suffered a lot. At the age of five, she had to cook and do farm work.

If the man had not been desperate and had to pawn his jade pendant, Cui Panxi might have been abused to death by her adoptive father.

When Prince Ning'an found her, she was thin and small, and looked malnourished.

Thinking of how his own daughter had suffered so much, Prince Ning'an blamed himself and felt that he had failed to protect her well.

Therefore, after bringing Cui Panxi back to the palace, everyone in the mansion did their best to treat her well, and there was nothing she couldn't get as long as she wanted.

Prince Ning'an once said that Princess Rong'an was the life of Prince Ning'an's mansion, and he would never let anyone who bullied her go, no matter what their status.

This time, Princess Rong'an returned to the capital to choose a husband, and all the officials in Ning'an Palace were mobilized to support the princess.

And it is likely that whoever Princess Rong An chooses will be the next crown prince.

"Prince Ning'an, I haven't seen you for three years. This time when I return to the capital, you must take more time off and spend more time with me."

The emperor laughed and said this, as if he and Prince Ning'an were on good terms with each other.

But everyone present knew that Prince Ning'an possessed the strongest military force, and the emperor could not take back these troops at will. I'm afraid no one would like such a minister.

But there is no point in not being happy, because half of the Yuan Dynasty originally belonged to the Cui family.

It is rare that he has hundreds of thousands of soldiers but has no intention of rebellion. Now that he has married his daughter to the prince, the emperor should be relieved.

"Your Majesty, I will have to stay in Beijing for a few more days this time. I will return to the northwest after Rong An gets married."

"Prince Ning'an is going back by himself?"

"Yes, the princess and the prince are afraid that Xier will not be used to being alone in the capital, so they stay in the capital to accompany her for a few more days. I hope the emperor can take good care of her when the time comes."
