Yin Xiuyuan's wedding was also very grand, and there were many dignitaries and celebrities among the guests.

Yin Wenxiu wore a rose-red dress with gold embroidery, and her hair was pulled up into a high bun, which made her neck look white and slender.

She held Meng Wanzhou's hand affectionately and said, "I'm so happy that you can come! I thought you wouldn't come because you were embroidering your dowry at home."

According to the rules, after Meng Wanzhou got engaged, she should not go out and embroider the dowry at home. But now that the constraints on women are smaller, they are not so strict in this regard.

Meng Wanzhou's face turned red and she said, "It's for your sake that I came out."

Yin Wenxiu leaned into her ear and said mysteriously: "The second and third princes are here today."

Meng Wanzhou's smile froze slightly and she said, "Your family is a relative of the emperor, so the two princes should be close to each other."

Yin Wenxiu felt a lot happy when she saw her stiff smile. She pulled her and said, "Let's go, I'll take you in."

Meng Wanzhou hurriedly declined and said: "No, just ask my servant to take me there. Don't wait for other guests because of me."

At this time, Wang Mingmin arrived with his sister-in-law Xia Baishao, and Yin Wenxiu asked his servants to lead Meng Wanzhou in.

Mr. Meng met an acquaintance, chatted and laughed with them and went to the banquet hall in the front yard.

Meng Wanzhou, Meng Wanqiu and Mrs. Meng followed the servants to the backyard banquet hall, where they greeted the ladies and ladies who had already arrived.

Meng Wanzhou also saw a few young ladies who were having fun, chatting together.

Meng Wanqiu, on the other hand, was sitting aside eating snacks on the table and looking around boredly.

Not long after, the banquet started, and various dishes were served one after another.

Everyone here has eaten and met before, but for the Yin family's banquet, they invited the royal chef from the palace, and every dish was unique.

Now that Master Meng is only a fifth-rank official, Meng Wanqiu doesn't have many opportunities to eat at palace banquets. He was attracted by the exquisite dishes in front of him and ate gracefully with chopsticks.

Halfway through the meal, Mrs. Meng suddenly asked in surprise: "Where is Meng Wanqiu?"

Only then did Meng Wanzhou realize that the place where Meng Wanqiu was sitting was empty. There was a pile of food on the plate in front of her, and most of them took one bite and then threw it away.

Mrs. Meng was anxious, "Where has this child gone?"

Meng Wanqiu is stupid and impulsive. If she makes any jokes at other people's weddings, she will be in trouble.

Meng Wanzhou hurriedly comforted her and said, "Mom, don't worry. I'm going to look for you. I probably felt bored and went out to get some fresh air. It shouldn't be too far away."

At the same time, I also blamed myself for only focusing on eating and not paying attention to the troublemaker.

Mrs. Meng was worried, "Let's go look for it together."

Meng Wanzhou said: "It's not good if everyone in our family leaves the table in the middle of the dinner. I'll just take the maid there."

Her relationship with Meng Wanqiu was not a good one, but it was not bad enough to leave her alone.

Meng Wanzhou left the banquet hall and went to look for him separately with the maid.

She inquired with several servants, and they all said that they had not seen Meng Wanqiu. A servant who was waiting at the door of the palace pointed to the direction of the garden and said, "Just now, a little girl in a green skirt ran over and kept walking.

Said there was something fun over there."

Meng Wanzhou hurriedly went to the garden to search, but he searched the entire garden and could not find Meng Wanqiu.

Suddenly, she found a small wooden house deep in the bamboo forest and walked over.

There are three wooden houses, which should be a place for people to rest. It is quiet and there seems to be no one there.

"Late Qiu, Late Qiu! Are you here?" she shouted, pushing the door open to look inside.

Pushing open the last door, she walked in, looked around, and shouted: "Late autumn! Late autumn!"

As soon as she finished speaking, hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside. Soon they were at the door of the room. Meng Wanzhou subconsciously hid behind the screen.

Meng Wanzhou felt a little regretful as soon as she hid in. She came in honestly to find someone, but now it seemed like she had done something shady and bad.

But in a strange environment, her first instinctive reaction is to protect herself first.

It was too late to go out now. The person came into the room where she was, and the door was quickly closed.

She heard a rustling sound, as if someone was taking off their clothes, and then she smelled the smell of medicine.

Meng Wanzhou covered her mouth and nose, not daring to move, trying her best to treat herself as an invisible person.

After a while, someone said: "Master, my subordinates have investigated and found out that the assassin is a remnant of Beiling and came to Beijing mixed with Xirong's caravan."

"Master, do you think it was the Crown Prince of Xirong who did this on purpose?"

"Should we kidnap and kill the Prince of Xirong on the way and teach him a lesson?"

"Subordinate, please see..."

The two subordinates were always talking, but the man they called their master never spoke.

In the middle of the conversation, Meng Wanzhou suddenly stopped talking. Then, Meng Wanzhou heard someone walking out and the sound of the door opening and closing.

Just as she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, she heard Leng's deep voice: "Come out."

Was he discovered? Meng Wanzhou thought to herself that she was unlucky.

But why does this voice sound familiar?

Meng Wanzhou slowly walked out from behind the screen and saw a man sitting on the chair next to the bed. His upper body was naked except for a black brocade robe. His wheat-colored skin exuded strength and sexiness.

.

At this time, his falcon-like eyes were like sharp blades, making people afraid to look directly at him.

Meng Wanzhou hurriedly knelt on the ground and saluted, and said timidly: "My maid pays homage to the Third Prince! Your Majesty, please forgive me. I did not eavesdrop on purpose. I found my sister-in-law to find you here. My lord..."

She was about to burst into tears. She seemed to have offended someone she didn't dare to offend, and heard an incredible secret.

"Pfft! Third Prince? Have you ever recognized the wrong person?" The man burst out laughing, the corners of his evil mouth slightly raised.

Meng Wanzhou raised her head and asked uncertainly: "Are you the second prince?"

Just now, he had a sullen face and cold, bottomless eyes. He really looked like the Third Prince Jingyang.

But thinking about it carefully, Jingyang would never be so careless about his image and let himself be disheveled in front of outsiders.

Meng Wanzhou managed to calm down and continued to explain: "Second Prince, I really came to see my sister."

Jing Xi's eyes narrowed slightly, she glanced at the screen on the side, and said with a half-smile, "Have you found the screen after looking for your sister?"

"My maid, my lord, I thought he was a bad guy, so I hid." Meng Wanzhou felt that this excuse was a bit pale, so she had to bite the bullet and said, "My lord, I didn't hear anything just now."

She was like a frightened little white rabbit. This was the first time she had shown such a fearful expression in front of him.

He looked at her with deep eyes, and there was invisible pressure in the air.

Meng Wanzhou was really scared, and her hands on the ground trembled, "Second Prince..."

"Pour me a glass of water." His voice was nice, but a little weak.

Meng Wanzhou stood up, picked up the teapot on the tea table, poured a glass of water, and handed it to him.

Only then did he realize that his left shoulder was wrapped in a bandage, with blood seeping out. His face turned pale, and he hurriedly asked: "Are you injured? Is it okay?"
