the other side.

Meng Jinyou did not participate in the winter hunt.

After all the civil and military officials left the city, he slowly went to the Kyoto prison.

White clothes are better than snow, and a young man is like jade.

Anyone who sees him will call him a handsome young man.

However, the jailers who were drinking and chatting were suddenly shocked.

Then someone started to sneer, "Hey, isn't this the brilliant Prime Minister? How come you have time to come to our poor place today?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he was interrupted by his companion who sneered, "Wang Er, you are too uninformed. There is no prime minister named Meng in our capital now."

"That's right. Mr. Meng is not even as good as us now."

"Really? I really didn't know about this!"

Although he said so, the man looked at Meng Jinyou with a look of gloating, "I didn't expect that you would have this day, Meng Jinyou."

Meng Jinyou waved his folding fan and glanced at him nonchalantly, "I don't remember ever offending you?"

Wang Er snorted coldly, "You haven't offended me, but you have offended many people in the past."

Meng Jinyou was not panicked. He even smiled and gestured to Wang Er, "Oh? Why don't you tell me in detail?"

He looked somewhat excited, as if he was about to hear an interesting story.

Wang Er gritted his teeth. This guy was really annoying.

Seeing that he looked like he wanted to skin Meng Jinyou alive, the jailer beside him secretly asked, "How did Meng Jinyou offend you?"

"That's right. Logically speaking, you should have nothing to do with the Meng family. How did he offend you?"

"Are you the illegitimate child of the Meng family who is living outside? Meng Jinyou is unwilling to acknowledge you?"

Wang Er's face turned dark. What the hell was going on?

He has an irreconcilable relationship with Meng Jinyou and the Meng family!

The jailers were puzzled, "What was the reason?"

Meng Jinyou nodded, "Yes, why?"

Wang Er was surrounded by several curious faces. His anger rushed to his head and he blurted out, "It's all because of him, Meng Jinyou, who seduced my fiancée's soul!"

"Aha?"

"Your fiancee?"

"The eldest daughter of Mr. Li's family in the south city?"

"Yes, that's her!"

"How did Meng Jinyou seduce the soul? Can you tell us all about it?"

Meng Jinyou nodded again, "Yes, tell me, I also want to know how I seduced your fiancée's soul!"

Wang Er: “…”

Why doesn't he die?

"Tell me about it!"

The jailers urged in unison.

Wang Er was so angry that his face turned green.

"Whatever you say, I don't want to say it!"

Everyone groaned and was very disappointed.

Wang Er quickly changed the subject, "Meng Jinyou, what are you doing in the prison? This is not a place for a rich young man like you."

Everyone was shocked, yes.

Even if Meng Jinyou is no longer the prime minister, he shouldn't come to visit the prison.

"I wonder why Mr. Meng came here?"

"If it's nothing important, please leave."

Meng Jinyou put away his folding fan and said seriously, "No hurry, I have to first figure out how I offended this second brother Wang. Otherwise, I'm afraid that next time I walk on the street, I'll be stabbed and I won't know why."

Wang Er was stunned. What did Meng Jinyou mean?

What does it have to do with me whether he will be stabbed or not?

Stop slandering me!

"I also think that any misunderstandings should be clarified in person. Although Meng Jinyou is not the prime minister now, he is still the head of the Meng family. If he really treated you unfairly, we can ask him to compensate you."

"Yes, yes, yes. Maybe after today, you, Wang Er, will become rich."

Hearing the implication of their words, Wang Er was so angry that he jumped up and down, "Bullshit! I won't get rich by relying on women."

Meng Jinyou chuckled and shrugged.

Wang Er felt like he was about to explode with anger, and he glared at Meng Jinyou fiercely.

"Don't act innocent. If you hadn't been showing off like a peacock all day long, how could my fiancée be deceived by you?"

In the past, I would just hold a poetry collection all day long and recite some sour poems.

But ever since she met Meng Jinyou in person at the poetry meeting that day, she began to lose her appetite and kept clamoring to be Meng Jinyou's slave.

He went to the door several times but didn't see anyone.

How could he not be angry?

If possible, he even wanted to destroy Meng Jinyou's face to see if Yuanniang would still like him.

Ah!

After hearing Wang Er's words, one of the jailers was puzzled, "Ah, that's it?"

"Isn't that enough? Yuanniang and I have been childhood sweethearts and were planning to get married after the New Year. But because of him, Meng Jinyou, now Yuanniang doesn't even want to see me."

The more Wang Er thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt. Finally, he squatted beside the table with his head in his hands and burst into tears.

Everyone looked at each other in surprise.

Meng Jinyou: “…”

He was shocked, but more helpless.

Things were completely beyond imagination.

After a few moments of silence, Meng Jinyou got back to the topic.

"Well, I'm actually here to visit Prince Yu. Can anyone show me the way?"

"That won't work. The higher-ups have told us that Prince Yu has a special status now, so not everyone can visit him."

"Really?" Meng Jinyou glanced at the few people with a cold look, and took out a token from his sleeve pocket, "Your Highness Prince Heng can't visit either?"

After seeing clearly that it was King Heng's token, everyone's attitude changed instantly.

"Since this is the order from His Royal Highness Prince Heng, we naturally cannot disobey it. Mr. Meng, please follow us."

The clever one came to his senses first and led Meng Jinyou inside.

The others had nothing to do, so they gathered around Wang Er, either to comfort him or to add fuel to the fire.

In short, the main thing is to not be idle.

As they passed by each cell, Meng Jinyou asked casually, "Who has visited him?"

"No one, except Princess Yu who came to visit him yesterday."

"Did anything unusual happen?"

The jailer disagreed, "Well, there is no way anything unusual could happen."

Just then they reached a corner, and Meng Jinyou took out a gold leaf from his sleeve pocket and handed it to the jailer who was leading the way.

The jailer was stunned for a moment, then he stopped naturally.

The next moment, he took the initiative to lean close to Meng Jinyou's ear.

"It's strange, the Princess of Yu came to visit Prince Yu, but somehow she got irritated by the guards she brought with her."

"He even had the guard severely beaten in the cell before he could leave the prison. We heard the noise and went to check, and found that the guard was covered in blood."

Meng Jinyou was shocked in his heart, but he looked calm and composed.

Seeing that he was not startled, the jailer couldn't help but sigh in his heart that as a prime minister, his mentality was indeed very stable.

He couldn't help but click his tongue twice. "If you ask me, these powerful people are not easy to mess with. Who would have thought that the Princess of Yu, a woman, could be so cruel."

"Did you see what the guard looked like?"

"Well, it's hard to see clearly, his hair was disheveled. But what I find strange is that the guard was beaten to death but he didn't beg for mercy, and he didn't even make a sound. He is really tough."

Meng Jinyou's expression gradually became solemn.

People with tough bones will not beg for mercy after being beaten, but that doesn’t mean they won’t make any sound.

There must be something wrong with the guard that Princess Yu took away.
