Meng Yunshang spoke slowly, "This will be a huge blow to the Saint. If the news of her having a child gets out, it will inevitably cause outrage and condemnation from the people. By then, I'm afraid even the King of Li Kingdom won't be able to protect her!"

Lin Yiwan naturally anticipated various dangerous scenarios that had not yet occurred, but since they were here, she could only face them calmly.

The reason why she told her two good friends was that she hoped that both the Sang and Meng families could help Zhan Yan before the big storm came.

Meng Yunshang immediately understood what she meant. She said solemnly, "Wanwan, if it weren't for you, our Meng family might have already been convicted. I will inform my father about this and ask him to help mediate. No matter what, the Meng family is on your side!"

Needless to say, Sang Qiutang also guaranteed that she could convince her father.

Lin Yiwan expressed her gratitude to her friend, offering her tea instead of wine to express her gratitude: "No words can express everything!"

After the three of them separated, Lin Yiwan couldn't calm down for a long time.

She thought, the one who is suffering more now is probably the saint?

It is said that mother and child are connected by heart. After she heard that Zhan Yan was under house arrest, was she also anxious and lost her appetite?

The next day, the king of Li State arrived at the capital of Sheng Dynasty, and all officials went out of the city to welcome him.

Lin Yiwan didn't have to go because she was still under house arrest.

At this time, Queen Li was sitting in a luxurious carriage. She was wearing swaying brocade clothes, which made her look more dignified and beautiful.

Next to her was a chubby child wearing a jade crown. He was tilting his head back and looking at the bustling scene outside the window with great interest.

After a moment, he said with a face full of joy, "Mother, this Shengjing City is different from our Li Kingdom. The streets are full of shops. Just now, I saw someone selling puppets!"

The Queen of Li Kingdom extended her hand towards him and said, "Come here! As the prince of Li Kingdom, don't act like an inexperienced person and let the people of Sheng Dynasty laugh at you!"

The little prince snuggled into her arms and murmured, "Mother, I've been sitting in this carriage for a long time. My back and waist are sore. I want to go out and play!"

The Queen immediately stopped him, "No, we are in Shengjing City now. What did your father tell you? You are the only future crown prince of Li Country. I don't know how many people want to kill you!"

The little prince pouted in annoyance. He often heard these words in his ears, which was really annoying.

He just wants to go out shopping, is it that difficult?

The queen, perhaps sensing the resentment in his eyes, immediately tried to comfort him, "Once you've settled down at the inn, if you want to go out and play, I'll have Prime Minister Min accompany you. He's been to Shengjing before, so he's naturally quite familiar with the area!"

The little prince couldn't help but frown. He didn't want Prime Minister Min to accompany him!

That old-fashioned guy never acts according to his own wishes.

He told him to go east, but he insisted on going west!

He came out to have fun and absolutely couldn't bring anyone who would spoil the fun.

Thinking of this, he refused without hesitation: "No, my son suddenly doesn't want to go shopping, my son will stay with his mother obediently!"

The queen then narrowed her eyes and smiled: "Good boy!"

The carriage rumbled forward and soon arrived at the posthouse.

When the Queen of Li Kingdom was helped down, she saw the King greeting the officials of Sheng Dynasty.

Prime Minister Meng personally received the king, Wu Chengyue, and led him to the main hall of the inn to talk.

Queen Li felt extremely tired. Now that she had finally arrived, she naturally wanted to take a rest.

She had just chosen a courtyard when she saw a woman with a mysterious look on her face walk over quickly and say, "My Queen, I have found the person General Qin was looking for!"

The queen's expression suddenly changed, and she immediately took her into the house.

After making sure no one was eavesdropping, she asked with a voice in her eyes, "What's this person's name?"

The woman leaned close to her ear and whispered, "I've spent quite a bit of effort to find out that she looks very similar to the wife of Marquis Zhan Yi. She also disappeared from the capital for a while ago. I guess that's when she disguised herself as a man and came to Prime Minister Min!"

A strong hatred suddenly flashed in the queen's eyes. She gritted her teeth and murmured, "Min Xiang? He was the one who deliberately harmed my eldest brother!"

The woman replied, "My Queen, I just checked and found no one from the Marquis of Zhan Yi's mansion among the ladies of the court who came to greet you. I guess she must be feeling guilty, so she's trying to avoid appearing before General Qin!"

The queen taunted him, "She can escape the first day, but she can't escape the fifteenth. Since I've come to Shengjing City, I naturally want to help my eldest brother get rid of his anger. That bitch must die!"

The woman nodded immediately: "Then I will go and find out her whereabouts!"

As the woman reached the door, the queen immediately called out to her, "Where is the prince? Did you see him when you came here just now?"

The woman said in surprise: "No, I have never seen His Royal Highness the Prince. Is he not with the Empress?"

She could no longer sit still, because that was her most precious son.

She quickly urged: "Come, go find the little prince, quickly!"

The inn was suddenly in chaos, and at that moment Wu Ninglei was eating a candied haws with a grin on his face.

He slurped the food, "It's so sour, my teeth are going to fall out!"

Just when there was only one left, someone suddenly reached out and knocked it away.

He immediately widened his eyes in anger: "Who is so bold as to knock away my candied haws?"

An old beggar walked up to him quickly and asked, "Are you the young prince of Li Kingdom?"

Wu Ninglei nodded subconsciously, but after realizing what he was saying, he immediately shook his head and denied it: "I'm not!"

After saying that, he ran away.

However, as soon as he ran to the entrance of the alley, he was pulled back by several beggars.

He was so angry that he jumped up and down: "Let me go now, or else if anything happens to me, my uncle will chop off your hands and feet!"

The old beggar snorted coldly: "No matter how powerful your uncle is, is he as powerful as our Zhan Yihou? Today, we are following Zhan Yihou's orders to deal with you, the dog of Li Country!"

With his order, Wu Ninglei was put into the sack.

He cried out in shock and anger, but it was of no use.

Fists and kicks rained down on his body, causing him to wail in pain.

Until he passed out, the only thing that kept lingering in his mind was that it was Zhan Yi who beat him into this state.

At this time, Emperor Sheng An also learned that the little prince of Li Kingdom had disappeared just after arriving in the capital. This was a serious matter, so he quickly ordered someone to invite Prince Li into the imperial study.

He said anxiously, "Uncle, the young prince of Li must not get into trouble in Shengjing City. Otherwise, there will be a rift between the two countries, and they will become incompatible!"

Prince Li naturally understood this logic. He was also thinking about reaching a cooperation intention with the King of Li and signing a peace document.

He said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, don't worry. I have already ordered a search around the post station. I believe there will be results soon!"
