Chapter 736 Ancient Robbery 19
Fu Wenting smiled and got into her arms: "Didn't you promise to protect me?"
This was the scene Gu Zhige saw when he walked in.
Pingguo quickly pulled Fu Wenting up and asked him to stand up.
Fu Wenting saw that Gu Zhige was a little impatient. It was such a warm moment, but someone showed up to spoil the fun. It was really unlucky.
Gu Zhige looked at him thoughtfully and smiled at Meng Liu: "You are such a childish maid."
"Yeah." Meng Liu also responded with a smile.
"You are so young that you may not be able to act properly. How about I get you a more mature maid?" He suggested eagerly.
Meng Liu refused: "No need, Xiao...Fu, I am very comfortable with it."
Xiao Fu.
Gu Zhige thought about it and realized that it was rare for a maid to be given this name.
After dinner, the couple went to bed to rest.
Gu Zhige was determined to finish what he had not done last night.
He never thought that Meng Liu had her period. He hugged Meng Liu angrily and buried his head in her neck: "It's so hard to eat meat."
Meng Liu laughed out loud: "Why rush? There is still a long time to come."
Gu Zhige kissed her cheek: "Madam is right, we still have a lifetime."
The two of them fell asleep in each other's arms.
Three days passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was the day to return home.
Early in the morning, Gu Zhige instructed the maid to pack the gifts to be taken back.
After Meng Liu finished washing and eating breakfast, he suggested before leaving: "Xiao Fu's maid is immature, so let her stay in the mansion."
Meng Liu had exactly this idea. Apart from anything else, Fu Wenting's face should not be flaunted in the capital.
What if I’m recognized by someone with ulterior motives?
This time she and Gu Zhige rode in the same carriage.
The maid had to follow the carriage, which was too risky. It would be safer for her to stay in the princess's mansion.
Fu Wenting was a little unhappy, but he also knew that Meng Liu was doing this for his own good, so he did not refuse and only asked Meng Liu to let her come back early.
When they arrived at the Meng Mansion, Li Shiyun quickly pulled Meng Liu into her yard and asked her some details of their married life. The main point was to find out whether the prince was good to her.
Gu Zhige was called by Meng Qian to the study for a talk.
The time they spent chatting passed quickly, and when she looked up at the sky, it was almost noon.
Meng Liu was thinking about Fu Wenting and wanted to get up and say goodbye.
My mother's home is in Beijing, so I can go back anytime, but Fu Wenting doesn't know when he will return to the northwest, so I should spend more time with him when I have time.
And she is not in the princess's house, which makes me a little worried.
Li Shiyun looked at her reluctantly.
Seeing this, Gu Zhige came to the rescue: "Why don't we wait until lunch before leaving? We finally came back."
Meng Qian'an hurriedly ordered his servants to prepare.
Meng Dingfeng also said to his sister: "Brother-in-law is right. You have nothing to do in the princess's mansion, so you can stay and accompany me and mother. Mother couldn't eat in the past few days when you were away."
Having said that, Meng Liu couldn't refuse and could only stay and have another meal.
After lunch, she was about to leave, but Gu Zhige pulled her aside and talked to Meng Dingfeng and Li Shiyun for a long time. Seeing that it was almost time for dinner if she didn't leave, Meng Liu resolutely said goodbye.
As the two men walked back home, they could hear the sound of armor on the street.
"What's going on? It's broad daylight, what are the officers and soldiers doing?" She lifted the curtain and took a look. The people on the street had consciously stayed indoors, leaving only their carriage and the officers and soldiers.
Gu Zhige was not sure either: "Maybe they are catching some suspects."
After he said that, Meng Liu became a little anxious. Isn't the biggest suspect hiding in the princess's mansion?
Maybe Fu Wenting was discovered.
Thinking of this, she wished the carriage had eight wheels so she could go back faster.
As soon as the couple entered the princess's mansion, a maid came to report.
"Prince, Madam, the princess has ordered you to go."
Meng Liu was worried about Fu Wenting, so she followed Gu Zhige to meet her mother-in-law with her heart on her mind.
As soon as you enter the house.
"Your Majesty!"
Meng Liu stood there in a daze. She had already knelt when serving tea, so what was she doing now? She was not a spineless person and could kneel anytime and anywhere.
Gu Zhige knelt down as soon as he entered the room. Seeing that she didn't move, he tugged at her skirt and gave her a pleading look.
Meng Liu: "..."
I was speechless. For his sake, I couldn't do anything to his mother.
She knelt down deflatedly as Gu Zhige pulled her.
The prince consort tried to smooth things over: "If you have anything to say, just talk it out. We are all family..."
"Then you have to see if she treats us as a family!" The princess gritted her teeth and turned to look at her fiercely. "Tell me yourself, who is hiding in the mansion?"
Meng Liu's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Fu Wenting was discovered?
Seeing her lowering her head and not speaking, Princess Pingyang became even angrier.
Pointing at Gu Zhige, he said, "You married a good wife! How dare you get involved with Prince Duan? Do you think our Princess Mansion is too peaceful?!"
Meng Liu's heart sank back into her stomach. Rather than feeling uneasy, the worst possible outcome made her feel more at ease. It seemed that Fu Wenting had indeed been discovered.
"Where is he now? Is he in danger?!" Meng Liu asked hurriedly. Now it was more important to make sure Fu Wenting was safe.
Princess Pingyang snorted coldly: "When you did this, did you ever think about the safety of the Princess's Mansion for a moment? Secretly meeting with a man outside your family is a serious crime!"
Gu Zhige looked at Meng Liu in confusion. They had been together every day these days. No matter who Meng Liu had hidden at home, he was sure that she had never betrayed him.
"Where is Fu Wenting? How is he now?" Meng Liu did not answer, but only asked what he wanted to know.
Princess Pingyang was so angry that she almost vomited blood. She was already asking for the blame, but Meng Liu was still worried about that boy.
"Okay, Meng Liu, your mother and I just asked you to come here to ask, what is your relationship with the young prince? Why do you hide him in the mansion?" The prince consort asked relatively gently.
Meng Liu opened her mouth, but before she could reply, Gu Zhige spoke first: "I know about this matter. It was me who hid the young prince in the mansion. It has nothing to do with Meng Liu."
Princess Pingyang was almost mad: "You rebellious son, think it over first!"
Gu Zhige felt a little guilty at first, but he became more and more confident as he spoke: "It was me who did it. The little prince is not even ten years old yet, how could he have a secret meeting with a man outside of his family? The little prince and I hit it off at first sight during the Lantern Festival, and he came to the capital just to congratulate me on my wedding, so mother, where is the little prince now?"
Everyone present knew that this was Gu Zhige's lie, but the princess and her husband could not find any evidence to prove that it was Meng Liu who hid the person.
Both of them had unhappy expressions on their faces.
"I told the guards when I found out. I'm afraid he's in the palace dungeon now."
