The fifth prince?

Meng Tingyue's eyes dimmed slightly, and a hint of darkness flashed across her eyes.

Could it be that the Fifth Prince was also reborn like her?

However, Meng Tingyue thought about it again and felt that it was impossible.

Considering how much the Fifth Prince cared about Meng Qingjiao in his previous life, he would definitely not do this if he were really reborn.

After all, the fifth prince in his previous life loved Meng Qingjiao so much that he even wanted to take her life for her.

Could it be that her father did it?

Meng Tingyue also felt that it was unlikely. Her wedding dress had only been delivered a few days ago. If her father wanted to make an identical one, there would not be enough time, let alone give it to the Fifth Prince and ask him to send it over.

The Fifth Prince is now in decline and has the least ambition for the throne among all the princes. If her father thought highly of the Fifth Prince, he would not have tried every means to make Meng Qingjiao marry the Crown Prince.

She just felt that her head was as messy as a ball of paste, as if it was shrouded in a fog, and she couldn't figure it out no matter what she did.

As for Nanny Qin, even if she racked her brains, she could not have expected that Lord Meng would be so bold as to tamper with the royal marriage.

Meng Tingyue couldn't figure out the reason, so she could only temporarily turn her attention away from the embroidered clothes shop in the house.

Wedding dresses are made by an embroidery shop. If there are duplicates, it must be that someone in the shop has malicious intentions and leaked the design drawings.

As long as she investigates it later, she will always find some clues.

Xiao Wuyou and Xiao Huaifeng also vaguely heard some news, so Xiao Wuyou took the initiative to visit.

Seeing her hurried and worried look, Meng Tingyue knew her purpose and smiled gently to comfort her, "Don't worry, auntie. I will handle this matter with all due care."

After spending these few days together, Xiao Wuyou also realized that Meng Tingyue was not as weak and gullible as she appeared to be, and she was not ignorant and foolish. At least she was smarter than her foolish and naive sister, and she knew what to do in everything.

This made Xiao Wuyou feel relieved and at ease.

"Since you know what's going on, I feel relieved."

Xiao Wuyou slowly walked to Meng Tingyue's side, and the twilight fell on her flawless face.

Her fair face was gradually made up with makeup, and the sickly look in her eyes slowly faded away, replaced by brightness and boldness. Her lips were bright red, as bright as her wedding dress today.

The wedding dress and the phoenix crown on her head were extremely exquisite. When she wore them and matched them with the indigo outfit, she looked like a completely different person.

Xiao Wuyou was fascinated for a moment, pursed his lips and lost his words.

If Tingyue had not been troubled by the disease, she should have been so bright and outgoing. She should have gone out and made friends with like-minded people like ordinary women, instead of staying in the boudoir and drinking bitter medicine.

"Aunt, aunt."

Meng Tingyue's voice brought Xiao Wuyou back from his memories

She subconsciously looked away, not wanting to meet Meng Tingyue's gaze, and casually said "hmm".

"I hope the prince will be your good match."

Xiao Wuyou's sigh-like voice slipped into Meng Tingyue's ears.

"Maybe." Meng Tingyue replied subconsciously.

It doesn’t really matter whether it’s a good match or not.

Anyway, the prince died young.

She didn't live long in her previous life.

Thinking about it this way, the two of them are really destined to be together, both of them are short-lived.

Xiao Wuyou smiled and spoke in a relaxed tone, "You may not remember, but when you were three years old, your mother took you out and met a fortune-telling monk. The monk said that you were destined to have a disaster, but as long as you found a good man, everything would turn out well."

Hearing this, Meng Tingyue smiled sweetly, "Is this true? He's not a charlatan, is he?"

Xiao Wuyou shifted his gaze to the scenery outside the window.

"Perhaps there is some truth to it. I suspect the calamity he spoke of is the weakening you've endured for ten years following your serious illness. Perhaps the Crown Prince is your true love, and perhaps your health will gradually recover after you marry him."

Meng Tingyue didn't believe Xiao Wuyou's explanation.

If what the fortune teller said was true, then marrying the Fifth Prince would probably be her destiny.

"Do you still have the jade you've worn since childhood?"

"Jade?"

Meng Tingyue took out the jade hanging around her neck and asked, "Is this what my aunt was talking about?"

Xiao Wuyou nodded, "This piece of jade was given to you by the fortune-telling monk. When you were only three years old, you fell in love with it the moment you saw it and insisted on having it. That's when your mother decided to buy it."

"Who knew that the fortune-teller monk didn't take the money, but simply turned around and gave the silver to the little beggar beside him. He said that the jade was originally yours, that everything was predestined, and that you were a noble person. I can't remember exactly what he said. When your mother heard it at first, she thought he was a charlatan and was shocked."

"She was afraid the jade might be a big problem, so she wanted to return it to the fortune-teller. But the fortune-teller just ran away."

"She later wanted to throw the jade away, but you kept crying and wailing, so she had no choice but to accept it. She then sent someone to investigate the origins of the jade pendant, but they couldn't find any problems, so she let you wear it forever."

Meng Tingyue didn't know that this jade seemed to have a close connection with her.

Her fingertips gently stroked the surface of the jade. "I heard that this jade has another half."

Xiao Wuyou said, "We don't know where the other half is. After you were lost and found, you fell ill and forgot a lot of things. Only half of the jade pendant is left. So many things happened during that time that we didn't have the energy to look for the other half."

"You want to find that half piece of jade?"

Meng Tingyue shook her head. It was just a jade pendant, not an important thing. Maybe she accidentally dropped it and lost the other half.

She already knew the origin of the jade pendant, so that was enough.

As for what the fortune-telling monk said, she didn't believe it. Even if it was true, so what? She didn't know whether she was a noble person or not, and she didn't want to care who she was noble to.

She just wants revenge.

"Miss, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Fifth Prince are almost here."

The maid from the outer courtyard came in and reported.

Nanny Qin took the veil from the side and carefully covered Meng Tingyue's head with it.

Meng Tingyue said, "Bring that box here."

Qinglan knew what it was and quickly went to get it and gave it to Meng Tingyue.

Meng Tingyue opened the box, took out the sachet inside and hung it around her waist.

The color of the sachet is similar to that of the wedding dress, so it doesn't look out of place when worn on the body.

"I'm leaving first." Xiao Wuyou glanced at the sachet around her waist and left in a hurry.

Meng Tingyue placed her hands on her knees, waiting for time to pass.

I was calculating the time when the prince would come here.

She was guessing how the person behind the scenes was planning to have her and Meng Qingjiao marry in exchange.

A hand reached out from the side, and a blue voice sounded in my ears.

"Miss, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived. I will help you out."

Meng Tingyue nodded slightly, put her hand on Qinglan's hand, and went out with her support.

Covered with a red veil, her vision was limited and she could only see a small area next to her feet, so she walked very slowly.

Shortly after she arrived at the front hall, Meng Qingjiao also arrived at the front hall with the help of her maid.
