Time Travel and Love

"Mother, I know what you are thinking, but you should also think about it carefully. Qingmeng can read and write, play the piano and dance, is well-versed in poetry, can speak eloquently, is familiar with military strategies and history books, and is even very good at policy essays. Can such a girl be raised in an ordinary family?" Mo Liujin knew that Aunt Liu was fundamentally concerned about Chu Qingmeng's background, and the reason she was making trouble was that she disliked her because she was an orphan.

Madam Liu remained silent. Mo Chenfeng looked up at Chu Qingmeng in surprise. Qingmeng could even discuss policy?!

"Mother, why can't you understand such a simple truth?" Mo Liujin sighed deeply. "Qingmeng is just lazy and afraid of trouble, so she has been hiding her incompetence. But I have been with her all day, so it is impossible for me not to notice this. Back in Zhu County, I fell ill and slept for more than half a month. It was Qingmeng who handled various affairs of the county government for me. She also handled the disaster relief! How could an ordinary woman know all this?!"

"I know that you asked me to take a concubine not only because you think I have few children, but more because you want to force a concubine into the family to disgust her. But, mother, I really don't want one. I just want to spend some time with her in peace and quiet."

"My son is now over 40. How many more years can he possibly live?! Why can't you just let him spend some quiet time with her?!"

"My son took the sterilization medicine not only to stop Qingmeng from suffering, but also because he owed her everything from the beginning. The injuries on her body were caused by him accidentally, and her body was worn down because of me! I don't want to experience the pain of separation again!"

"Mother, my son and Qingmeng don't just have two sons, Jiang Qing and Jiang Che. She had two miscarriages, both of which were caused by you. If you had been more patient, my son might have had four sons. Now that I can't have an heir, can you please be more patient and stop making trouble?"

Mo Liujin's last words seemed to have exhausted all his strength. If his mother hadn't forced Qingmeng to leave, even if it was by deception or robbery, he would have married her, and the child might have been saved. After being forced to leave, she wandered for more than two months without rest, and then traveled all the way to Zhu County to take care of him and take charge of the overall situation for him. The child was exhausted! Some time ago, it was also because Liu Qingqing and his mother poisoned Qingmeng that she was extremely weak. After she finally recovered, she was provoked by her fifth brother's wife...

"What did you say?!" Aunt Liu's voice was a little sharp.

"Liu Qingqing poisoned Qingmeng. Before she recovered, you stabbed her again. You smeared poison on the knife, didn't you? She was pregnant at the time, and that knife completely destroyed her body, which could have barely kept the child. After she finally recovered, she was…" Mo Liujin glanced at Mo Liuchen with some resentment and sighed, "Mom, you are just taking advantage of Qingmeng because she has no family to rely on, and you think that you are my biological mother and she can't do anything to you, so you are torturing her like this? If her parents were here, would you dare to do this?"

Almost every word Mo Liujin said was rebellious.

But Mo Chenfeng's focus was clearly not on this. When he heard about the poisoning, his expression suddenly turned grim. "Poisoning?! Liu! How dare you poison my son!!"

Chen Siyu stared at Concubine Liu with her eyes wide open, her face full of disbelief. Concubine Liu was a maidservant by her side, and had always been diligent and respectful. She had no idea when Concubine Liu had such vicious thoughts.

The clamor gave Chu Qingmeng a headache. She felt uncomfortable, the pain of losing her son, which she had been hiding, was being torn apart again. She wanted to escape, but found she couldn't. She hung her head, feeling depressed, and missed her father.

Unable to make out what Mo Chenfeng said angrily in the hall, Chu Qingmeng stood up and left in a daze.

She missed her father. She missed her master. She missed her fellow practitioners. Before, when her father wasn't around, she could force herself to suppress her pain, to forget it. But now, knowing that her father was right beside her, she couldn't suppress her pain anymore.

Mo Chenfeng was furious and just wanted to have Concubine Liu dragged out and beaten to death, but Mo Liujin said those words to let Mo Chenfeng keep Concubine Liu under custody, not to kill her, so there was chaos in the house.

Except for Mu Lingxue, no one noticed that Chu Qingmeng had left.

"Qingmeng!" Mu Lingxue caught up and grabbed Chu Qingmeng, "Where are you going?! I'll go with you!"

"I'm fine, Lingxue. I just miss my master and the others..." When people are in pain, they are afraid of others caring about them. As long as someone asks, their grievances will be magnified.

"Come on! I'll take you out to relax!" Mu Lingxue would not let her let her thoughts run wild and directly dragged her out of the palace and into the carriage.

As soon as he got on the carriage, Chu Qingmeng could no longer hold back and started crying while hugging Mu Lingxue.

Mu Lingxue hugged her back, patting her back from time to time, "Don't think about it, don't think about it, let's go drink milk tea, something sweet will make you feel better!"

"Lingxue, am I a bitch? What did I do to her? Why did she target me again and again?" Chu Qingmeng's emotions completely collapsed and she fell into deep self-doubt. She has always been a very introverted person, but once the floodgates of her emotions are opened, she will become extremely depressed.
