Reborn to marry, the short-lived prince lived a hundred years

Meng Qingjiao's eyes turned and she spoke vaguely: "Oh, mother, just believe me."

Madam Meng's frown remained unrelieved, and she finally sighed, "Alright, don't mention this to your father. In the end, it doesn't matter whether she can marry the Fifth Prince or the Crown Prince."

Meng Qingjiao nodded perfunctorily, then her eyes lit up, "Mom, Dad is back."

Lord Meng entered the room filled with anger.

"Dad, what did my sister say?" Meng Qingjiao immediately looked aggrieved.

The depression in Lord Meng's heart increased instead of decreasing when he met Meng Qingjiao's eyes.

"Talk, talk, talk, what's there to say? She's just a wicked girl. How dare she yell at me and threaten me? She's truly a wicked creature. She's nothing like me."

Lord Meng was furious and slammed his palm on the table.

The two of them were startled.

Mrs. Meng gave Meng Qingjiao a wink, and Meng Qingjiao understood and came behind Lord Meng, rubbing his shoulders and back considerately.

"Daddy, don't be angry. It's not worth it to get sick because of your sister. Daddy still has a daughter and a brother. We will never go against you."

Meng Qingjiao's words touched the heart of Lord Meng.

Lord Meng patted Meng Qingjiao's hand and said with relief: "Yes, your father still has you and Tang'er. Speaking of which, Tang'er will be back from the academy in two days."

"Yes." Speaking of her youngest son, Mrs. Meng's eyes were filled with relief.

"Your wedding is in half a month. During this time, I will keep Meng Tingyue in solitary confinement in the courtyard. You must find ways to get in front of the Crown Prince and encounter him more often. Find a way to capture his heart and make him never forget you."

Meng Qingjiao couldn't keep the smile off her face after hearing Lord Meng's heartfelt words.

"My dear daughter, the success of the Meng family depends on you. You must not let that evil girl become the Crown Princess. The Meng family cannot be destroyed by that evil girl."

Meng Qingjiao wanted to say something but hesitated, and finally, under the gaze of Mrs. Meng, she could only reluctantly agree.

……

"Huh? Put me in solitary confinement?" Meng Tingyue leaned on the bed and read a medical book. After listening to the servant's message, she closed the book and sneered.

The servant's forehead was covered in cold sweat, and he didn't dare to look directly at the young lady in front of him who was giving off an oppressive and cold aura.

"This is what the master ordered..."

Meng Tingyue naturally would not vent her anger on her servants for no reason.

"What's the reason?"

"The master said that the eldest daughter has no respect for her elders and behaves erratically. If she goes out, it will bring shame to the Meng family. She is locked up in the courtyard until the wedding..."

Meng Tingyue reopened the medical book and didn't want to look at him again. "I understand."

Qinglan was indignant, "Miss, why did the master put you in solitary confinement? It's obviously not your fault."

Qingdian came into the room carrying the medicine, "Miss, it's time to take the medicine."

"If he thinks I'm wrong, then I'm wrong." Meng Tingyue drank the medicine in one gulp and put two candied fruits in her mouth.

"It just so happens that I've been reading medical books at home these days. Anyway, I can't pass the exam in ten days."

"What about the prince..." Qinglan and Qingdian asked.

Meng Tingyue picked up another candied fruit and put it in her mouth. "I will write a few letters later. Qingdian can help me deliver them to the Prince's Mansion. One letter a day will always make the Prince remember me."

"Girl, you can't eat anymore. Eating too much is bad for your teeth." Qinglan took a few steps back holding the candied fruit.

Meng Tingyue felt a little regretful.

The servants' shouts were heard again outside the yard.

"Miss, Miss, the master wants you to go to the front hall."

Meng Tingyue didn't even raise her head. "Go and kick them out. Tell them that I'm under house arrest and can't go anywhere."

Qingdian stopped the people outside, and Qinglan went out to convey Meng Tingyue's words.

The servant was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. He could only shout inside, "Miss, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has come in person and specifically wants to see you."

The prince wants to see her?

Meng Tingyue raised her eyebrows slightly, closed the book, tossed it aside, and slid smoothly into the bed.

Qinglan was stunned by such smooth movements.

"Just say I'm sick and grounded, and can't go anywhere."

Qinglan's original words were transmitted back.

The servant was so anxious that he could only go back with the message.

Qinglan entered the room and said, "Miss, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has come in person, won't you come and see him?"

She remembered that the girl had wanted to find out where the prince had his three meals a day, and then pretend to meet the prince by chance. But today, the real prince came to her house in person and disappeared.

Meng Tingyue said calmly, "You'll know in a moment."

……

Lord Meng was sitting in the front hall feeling very uneasy. He never expected that the prince would come in person, especially to look for that evil girl.

He had a flattering smile on his face and couldn't stop looking outside, but he couldn't wait for the wicked girl to come. Instead, he waited for the servant to come back empty-handed.

"Didn't I ask you to invite the eldest girl? Where is the eldest girl?"

The servant knelt on the ground, beads of sweat dripping down his forehead, and panted, "The eldest lady, the eldest lady..."

Shen Yunheng's sharp black eyes swept towards the servant.

"What's wrong with the young lady?" Lord Meng was anxious.

"The eldest lady said she was too sick to get out of bed and couldn't come." The servant didn't dare to say the second half of the sentence.

Lord Meng's heart choked. He went to see him at noon and he was still awake. How could he be so sick that he couldn't get out of bed the next moment?

It must be that evil girl who is up to something again!

"Lord Meng."

Shen Yunheng's clear voice sounded, and Lord Meng subconsciously turned his head and met a pair of extremely intimidating eyes.

"When I brought Miss Meng back this morning, the doctor clearly said that she would wake up at noon. Why is it that it's already 3 p.m., and Miss Meng is too sick to get out of bed!" Shen Yunheng put the teacup in his hand on the table.

Just this small action made Lord Meng's legs tremble uncontrollably. If he hadn't been sitting on a chair, he would probably have knelt down directly.

"Your subordinate, your subordinate doesn't know either."

"I'll go and see it myself." Shen Yunheng stood up.

"Your Highness." Lord Meng was afraid that if the Crown Prince went there, Meng Tingyue would tell him about his previous actions. "Your Highness, please wait here for a moment. I will go and see for myself. Although Your Highness and my daughter are engaged, they are not married after all. It is not advisable to visit a woman's boudoir easily."

Shen Yunheng stared at Lord Meng steadily. After a while, Lord Meng felt that the captivating gaze on him had moved away.

"Then I'll wait here."

Lord Meng almost fled in panic.

When he ran all the way to Meng Tingyue's yard, the servant told him what Meng Tingyue had said.

He looked into the tightly closed room, trying hard to suppress the anger in his heart, raised his hand and knocked lightly on the door, "Tingyue, I'm your father, open the door."

"Master, my daughter is feeling very uncomfortable and has gone to bed." Nanny Qin glanced at Meng Tingyue who was leaning on the bed and reading a medical book leisurely. She walked out of the room and closed the door, blocking Master Meng outside.

Of course, Lord Meng didn't believe this. "Uncomfortable? What's wrong with you? Tell me, I'll send someone to get a doctor."

Nanny Qin: "The young lady had a dream while taking a nap just now. She dreamed of Madam. When she woke up, she was holding Madam's old things. The sight of them brought back memories and she was in great sorrow. She is unable to recover for a while. There is no need to call a doctor."
