After the replacement marriage, I was forced to fight at home

In the evening, Su Qing arrived at Qinyuan. Meng Qi had just washed her hair, and Mother Liu and Su Xin were drying her hair on the hot steamer on either side.

Seeing Su Qing coming in, Meng Qi repeatedly told Su Xin to serve tea and water, showing great enthusiasm.

Mother Liu didn't know the inside story and just thought it was just a loving relationship between sisters.

"Thank you for not telling Mom."

"Do I dare to say that? If my mother's heart is damaged again, even gods may not be able to save her."

Meng Qi lowered his head and said nothing.

"Have you seen Master Hong San?"

"Did you guess it?" Meng Qi raised her head.

"Do you need to guess? Why did you meet him? When Meng Juan got engaged last time, didn't you promise my mother to be with me?" Su Qing looked at the little girl in front of him, feeling helpless as if he was disappointed in her.

"I just want to understand."

"What do you want to understand? What do you want to understand with him?"

"You all said that he was scheming me, including the incident at Pingxi Marquis's Mansion. He did it on purpose. I just want to ask him why he did that and whether he did it on purpose."

“You, you…” So stupid, how could there be such a stupid person.

"You asked him? You asked him if he did it on purpose? Meng Qi, are you out of your mind? Is it possible that he said he did it on purpose? Not only will he not say it, he will also say that he did it by accident, that he was scared by you, that he regretted it after he did it, that he wanted to propose to you, but because his actions made you famous, his family didn't agree. He will even say that he likes you and has never liked anyone else except you."

Meng Qi opened her mouth wide and looked at Su Qing as she finished speaking. She blinked and said, "Second sister, how did you know he said that?"

Looking at Meng Qi's innocent look, no, stupid look, Su Qing stroked his forehead.

"Sister Qi, Mr. Hong is already over 20 years old and is very experienced in sex. It would be easy for him to deceive a young girl like you. I told you last time that maybe he planned everything in Hongluo Temple to lure you in. He said that he was frightened by you in Pingxi Marquis's Mansion and made a wrong move. But that was not the case at all. He did it on purpose.

"That time when the horse was startled, he was clearly saying nice things to you and even mentioned Hongluo Temple on purpose. But when others noticed you, he stayed away from you and pretended not to know you. As a young master from an aristocratic family, was it right for him to do this? His purpose in doing this was to confuse your thoughts. He was waiting for you."

"But why did he do this to me? What did he want?"

Su Qing sighed, "Today I'm just going to make everything clear to you, Meng Qi. I'm telling you, regarding Hong Zhe's matter, I'll help you analyze it this time. If you continue to be foolish about him in the future, I don't care what happens to you, but if you make your mother worry about you again and get sick, I won't forgive you."

Since Su Qing became the second daughter of the Meng family, she deeply felt the importance of her natal family to a woman. Especially when she heard Zhou Yu's analysis of Wang's brother, the one named Wang Boyuan, who would definitely have a great future, she could not let anything happen to Wang, especially since she was the second daughter who had just started her career and Wang was the only one who truly loved and cared for her.

"There are three reasons why you did that in Pingxi Marquis's mansion. First, what Hongzhe said to you when the horse was startled gave you hope. Second, when you attended Meng Juan's birthday party, you heard the Hong family say that Hongzhe liked a woman who was engaged, so he was reluctant to discuss marriage, and you naturally put that woman on yourself. Third, you picked up the book about eloping with a man."

After analyzing the matter with Wang, she was about to tell Meng Qi, but was stopped by Wang. Wang thought that since it happened, there was no need to let Meng Qi know so much. As for how much the third house was involved, Wang would find a chance to get it back.

Su Qing saw Wang's insistence. Although she didn't like Wang's doting, she couldn't say anything. Later, after Meng Juan and Hong Zhe got engaged, Meng Qi just reacted a little violently and then became quiet. She thought Meng Qi had accepted it, but she didn't expect that she would make such a big fuss today.

Therefore, Su Qing didn't even think about discussing it with Wang, and went directly to Qinyuan. She had to wake Meng Qi up, as she didn't want to be dragged down by this delicate young lady.

Seeing that Meng Qi still didn't understand, Su Qing took her hand and said, "Sister Qi, the third room has something to do with these three things."

Meng Qi stared at Su Qing, "I know, my mother told me, but there is no evidence, and they were not involved in the first incident."

"No? Then tell me, why are Meng Juan and Hong Zhe engaged? Meng Juan came to Beijing to find a husband in Beijing, but it has been two years and there has been no movement from the Third House. Meng Juan is not young anymore, but do you see how anxious Third Aunt is? Hong Zhe's ex-wife died a year ago, so it should be possible to remarry, but is he anxious? Why did he delay for two years?"

"That's because he can't let go of his deceased wife." Meng Qi whispered.

"Can't let go? You mean he loves you, right? Hehe, if he really missed his ex-wife, why would he say that to you? Why did he give you hope when the horse was startled? At that time, he was a filial son to his wife. If he really liked you, he could have come to propose marriage, but what did he do? He turned around and sent you to Grandfather in his carriage, in front of Mr. Zhou Er. Sister Qi, don't you understand?"

"He, he wants to deal with Zhou Yu?"

"Even if it wasn't Mr. Zhou Er, he was someone who wanted to use Mr. Zhou Er to deal with you. And he succeeded. He succeeded in making you and Mr. Zhou Er break off the engagement, succeeded in making Mr. Zhou Er a laughing stock in the capital, and succeeded in making you a woman that the noble families dare not marry."

Meng Qi stood up and asked, "What does he mean? Why did he do this?"

"We don't know why he did this, but we do know one thing."

"What?" Meng Qi looked at Su Qing steadily.

"His brother-in-law is King Jing."

Su Qing looked at Meng Qi's puzzled expression and said nothing. The ancient times were too complicated. Raising Meng Qi like Wang did would kill the child.

It's not that Meng Qi is stupid, on the contrary, she is actually very smart. But she was protected too well by Wang Shi, and she got used to not thinking about anything and not considering the consequences.

Just like the incident with Hongzhe, who was used like this, Wang had not yet explained the reason to Meng Qi, and was still thinking about finding a good in-law for Meng Qi. Without these messy things, Meng Qi would not have to know so much. As for what the third room did in Meng Qi's incident, Wang had such naive ideas that she would clean it up by herself.

Therefore, Su Qing wanted to wake up Meng Qi. No matter what, she occupied the original owner's body and enjoyed the treatment of the second lady of the Meng family. She had to do something for her own sister and could not just watch Meng Qi being played around like this.

"Second sister, could it be that Third Uncle is..."

Su Qing nodded with relief. "Whether this is the reason or not, we don't know, but one thing is certain, Meng Juan's marriage to Hong Zhe was decided a long time ago. If you say it happened before you at Hongluo Temple, that's a bit exaggerated, but it definitely happened after Jingma, don't you understand?"

"Hong Zhe, you are such a good person. You lied to me today." Meng Qi pulled the handkerchief, "Second sister, do you think they did it on purpose that my skirt was soiled at the Hong family today?"

Su Qing felt a sense of accomplishment watching her child grow up and become sensible. You see, children need to be educated, not just protected.

"What do you think? How could it be such a coincidence? You also said that the young masters in our family are not that impetuous. Besides, are the maids and servants around them just for free? Let the children jump on the guests?"

"So, they intentionally soiled my skirt and made me change my clothes. Then Hongzhe intentionally showed up in the pavilion. He did it all on purpose."

"Yes, who else was in the pavilion at that time?"

"There were three people. When I got there, two of them were walking and chatting in the front. Hongzhe was at the end. I called him."

"Did those two see you?"

"I saw one of them. He looks very similar to Hongzhe. I guess he should be one of his brothers. I haven't seen the other one before. He looks very noble and handsome."

"how old?"

"About the same age as his brother, older than Hong Chul."

Su Qing nodded. The only people who could go to the Hong family today were close relatives and people in the court who were on good terms with King Jing. Could it be that they were King Jing's men?

"Oh, by the way, that person was wearing a bright yellow belt. Second sister, could it be..." Meng Qi covered her mouth when she said this, and at the same time she secretly hated herself for only calling Hong Zhe at that time, but not taking a good look at that person.

"Could it be King Jing?" Su Qing frowned.
