The exquisite space of the ruffian concubine

Chapter 173
The old man hesitated for a moment, but nodded: "Okay, I will take you there."

As she spoke, she took Meng Xiaoshu's hand.

Meng Xiaosuo only felt her eyes darkened, as if a gust of wind was coming towards her, and when she regained her senses, she was already in another place.

"He's here?" Looking around at the flying eaves, she couldn't believe it.

This is the palace, why is the eldest brother in the palace?
However, there was no response from the old man in the ear for a long time, she turned her head to see, where is the figure of the old man here?
"These spirits of all things are masters who don't want to get involved in difficult matters." She smiled wryly and said to herself.

"Little Comb?" Meng Wenqing's voice sounded not far away, with a bit of surprise and joy, "Xiao Comb, when did you come?"

"Just arrived." Meng Xiaocom said.

"Have you eaten yet? The food here tastes very good. I remember you like cakes the most. I still have some sweet potato pancakes in my room. Do you want to have a bite?" Meng Wenqing asked.

Meng Xiaosuo seemed to hear Old Man Shui swallowing, but she shook her head, rejecting her elder brother's kindness: "I'm here because I have business to see you."

Meng Wenqing's expression froze, but he returned to normal in an instant, and said with a smile, "What's the matter, why are you so serious?"

"You have a share in Yin Yichan's ascension to the throne?" Meng Xiaosuo asked.

"That's right," Meng Wenqing did not deny, "my troops are concentrated on the border. If I want to win the throne, I need to lose troops and lose a lot of effort, and most likely I won't succeed. Yin Yichan is a trustworthy person, and I support him. He, it is still possible to help him fight against his relatives. This is a more cost-effective deal."

Sure enough!

Meng Xiaoshu smiled coldly and asked, "What if he fails to compete with his cousins?"

"It's impossible for him to win." Meng Wenqing gave Meng Xiaosuo a meaningful look.

Meng Xiaocom knew what he was talking about.

His own Linglong pendant was given to him by Yin Yichan. He awakened the old man and learned the secret of the Linglong space, and most likely also knew that Yin Yichan had the Linglong pendant.

Those who own such treasures have a great chance of winning. It stands to reason that they will never lose in the power struggle.

"What agreement did you reach with him?" Meng Xiaocom asked directly.

Yin Yichan wins over Meng Wenqing, and he must have given Meng Wenqing a lot of benefits, such as after promising to help him get out of his relatives, he will transfer Meng Wenqing back to the capital, increase his rank and become a noble, or hand over most of the military power to Meng Wenqing...

"He will restore the reputation of my Meng family and tell all the common people that our parents died of injustice," Meng Wenqing said.

Meng Xiaosuo didn't expect it to be like this, and immediately felt guilty for her previous guess - it turned out that the eldest brother was just trying to restore the reputation of his parents and wash away his grievances... But he thought he was doing it to occupy a high position and gain military power...

But Meng Wenqing's next sentence made her face change.

"His request, there are two, one is to help him eradicate all ambitious people, and the other is to marry you to him."

"What did you say..." Meng Xiaoshu's voice trembled a little, she stared firmly into Meng Wenqing's eyes, "You promised him?"

Meng Wenqing was not used to looking at her like this, so he looked away and said, "He will make you a noble concubine, or an imperial concubine, or even a queen."

"So, you promised him?" Meng Xiaosu asked harshly.

Although she already had a rough idea of ​​how things had progressed, she still wanted the eldest brother, Meng Wenqing, to speak out in person.

Marry her to Yin Yichan without her permission?This is my eldest brother?My own flesh and blood relatives?

Meng Wenqing was silent for a long time, and finally nodded: "Yes, marriage is the order of parents and the words of matchmakers. My father has passed away long ago, and my eldest brother is like a father, and my brother and sister-in-law are like my mother. Your marriage, your sister-in-law and I, have already been decided. Let it go. After all, you have been married once, and it is not easy for the emperor Yin Yichan to favor you..."

"Why didn't you tell me? If I don't come to ask you, how long are you going to delay?" Meng Xiaosu interrupted him coldly.

"This marriage is scheduled for seven days later, Yin Yichan is discussing with me, and I will tell you in a few days." Meng Wenqing took it for granted.

"Let me tell you, the reason why you didn't tell me earlier is because you knew that I would be furious like now. And the reason why I am furious, you don't know!" She clenched her fists, almost gnashing her teeth in hatred, " The reason is that I don't want to marry Yin Yichan at all! But even so, you still agreed to this marriage, just like the dead Emperor Yin, who treated me as a pawn, betrothed to Yin Yichan first, and then married again Yin Tianqi... As long as it is profitable, as long as it is just right, he can do anything!"

Meng Wenqing opened his mouth, as if he wanted to refute, but Meng Xiaoshu didn't give him this chance, and continued to sneer: "But what about you? You are my big brother! Do you want to treat me as a chess piece?"

"I'm not Emperor Yin, don't compare me with him!" Meng Wenqing frowned, "You have married once, and your husband-in-law is dead. Now, you are a widow, and Yin Yichan is willing to let you be his concubine. It's extremely kind. Besides, the elders have always been the masters in matters of marriage. Do you want to go against common sense and choose a husband by yourself? You marry Yin Yichan, and I will help him eliminate those who have different opinions, and your parents will be able to get revenge. Isn't it a good thing? Do you think I want to take part in this kind of intrigue? There are some things that have no choice!"

Yin Tianqi is dead?
Of course, he is an abolished prince. After Yin Yichan ascended the throne, how could he be allowed to survive?

Hearing this news, Meng Xiaocom should be happy, isn't this what she has always hoped for?Let Emperor Yin, Yin Tianqi, and Yin Tianqi's blood-hearted mother and concubine, who was the former queen, all go to the King of Hades to avenge their parents.

But she really couldn't be happy at this moment, of course she couldn't be happy.

Why did things develop to this point?

Perhaps it was because, on the road of revenge, there had been too many deviations, which resulted in today's situation - revenge, but he could not get out of his body, but was thrown into a bigger trap.

"Sacrifice me and marry me to Yin Yichan, this is your choice." Meng Xiaoshu looked at Meng Wenqing with strange and cold eyes, as if she had never seen him clearly, "You think I will be as filial and understanding as you are?" Reasonable, but you are wrong, I am not you. I also want to avenge my parents, so I will take the risk to attack Emperor Yin, to frame Emperor Yin's queen, to frame the seventh prince Yin Tianqi... But I don't feel guilty at all, Because they're all damned! But you should feel guilty because I shouldn't accept this unfair arrangement, but I don't have a choice. Listen clearly, I'm the one who didn't have a choice!"

"Don't you want to clear up the grievances for your parents?" Meng Wenqing asked.

He vaguely knew in his heart that Meng Xiaoshu would not agree with his actions, but he still had a glimmer of hope, hoping that she would be an understanding, submissive and gentle woman who could be considerate of himself and take care of the overall situation.

But where is Meng Xiaosuo a submissive and gentle woman?In her opinion, this kind of sacrificing her life's happiness in exchange for an "overall situation" that may not last for a long time is really ridiculous.

"Of course I want to, I dream about it, but what does this have to do with what you said? Is this the only way to clear up the grievances of parents?" She really didn't want to talk to Meng Wenqing, but he was someone else. It is my elder brother, "You have military strength, and I have Linglong Pendant. Even if we don't rely on Yin Yichan, we can avenge our parents. Why do you have to rely on him?"

"The matter has come to this point, it is useless to talk more." Meng Wenqing was still unwilling to change his mind.

"Okay, very good, it's really the end of the matter, it's useless to talk about it." Meng Xiaosu looked at him with a sneer, "From today onwards, you are no longer my big brother. I have never had a big brother like you."

"You!" Meng Wenqing became angry, and several veins suddenly popped out on his neck, "You know, if Dad is still alive, he will do the same as me when he encounters this situation."

"It's a pity that father is no longer alive. I have no way of knowing whether what you said is true or not. Besides, even if it is father, he can't control me. If there is such a father, he would rather sacrifice my happiness for fame and power. I will fight with the entire Meng family." Cut off the relationship." Meng Xiaocom said coldly.

Meng Wenqing said that he wanted to avenge his parents, but who knows if what he said is true or not?
Is it not for military power at all, not for official position?Who would believe it?

At least Meng Xiaoshu didn't believe it. At first, she would rather believe that this big brother was kind-hearted, but now she only wanted to think the worst about him.

Squeezing the Linglong Pendant, she returned to the space, leaving Meng Wenqing standing alone in the white snow.

"Girl, don't you want to?" The old man came over.

"You belong to him, so go with him." Meng Xiaosu waved to him.

"This... I am in Linglong Dimension after all, so I can't stay outside forever." The old man said.

Meng Xiaosuo was both angry and funny. The old man said that he recognized Meng Wenqing as the master, and he returned to Linglong Space only because he had to.In other words, in fact, he did not place Meng Xiaocom in an important position.

But Meng Xiaocoma wasn't angry, after all, the old man said it quite straightforwardly, without beating around the bush and showing duplicity.

"Is there any way for you to leave without coming back?" she asked.

"There seems to be no way to do this." The old man scratched his head and said.

"Can you stop perceiving my thoughts?" Meng Xiaocom asked again.

She didn't want her every move, any of her thoughts to be known to the old man, but to Meng Wenqing.

"This...seems like there's no way around it," said the old native.

"Then can I make you disappear?" Meng Xiaoshu looked up at him with sharp eyes.

The native old man was startled: "Disappear?"

Old Man Shui and Old Man Mu appeared beside him at some point, and Old Man Shui said to Meng Xiaosuo, "Of course there is a way."

"You two are immortal, you both awakened before me, and your magic power is not as good as mine." The old man took a few steps back and distanced himself from the two of them.

"Since ancient times, there has never been a fight in this space." The old man Mu smiled, with wrinkles on his face, "Old man, tell me, are you sleeping by yourself, or are we going to make you disappear?"

The surrounding air suddenly became distorted. It turned out that there was a wall of water surrounding it.This wall happened to separate Meng Xiaoshu from the outside, Old Man Shui obviously didn't want her to get hurt in this fight.

At the same time, rustling sounds came from the ground, and thousands of green grasses kept bullying, as if there were countless long snakes moving forward in the grass. Meng Xiaocoma took a closer look and saw hundreds of green vines, Flood towards the wall of water.

Old Man Tu's gaze swept over Old Man Shui and Old Man Mu, then he loosened his clenched fists and said through gritted teeth, "The old man is sleeping by himself!"

Although he was the last to awaken, he was no match for Old Man Shui and Old Man Mu with four legs and two hands.

"Then you can go to sleep." Old Man Mu said.

The old man didn't seem to be reconciled, his eyes were full of resentment, but he hesitated for a moment, before he raised his fist and punched himself in the chest hard.

Countless brown rays of light appeared in midair, like countless birds, rushing straight towards the earth.

In an instant, surrounded by the water wall, only Old Man Shui and Old Man Mu were left.

"Little comb girl, don't worry, that old man has already fallen into a deep sleep." Old Man Mu walked out of the water wall and said with a smile.

The tip of Meng Xiaocom's nose was sore, and she tried her best not to shed tears.

Few people would help her like this. These two old people treated her so well, but Meng Wenqing, his biological elder brother, wanted to use her.

"Girl Meng, it's okay." Old Man Shui patted her on the shoulder, "It's just... there's something you should know."

"What is it?" Meng Xiaoshu looked down at her toes, not wanting them to see her red eye sockets.

"No, it's not one thing, but two things. The first thing, your younger brother and the others may have seen the vision just now. Second, once the old man fell into a deep sleep, the merits of this dimension will be greatly reduced. You The merits of curing the plague and controlling the drought disappeared with him. That is to say, now Yin Yichan's Linglong Pendant is much stronger than you. He can already perceive your words and deeds, perceive your thoughts, and you He will soon find out about my younger brother's presence in the space. It's just that he can't come to this Linglong space." Old Man Shui said.

"If you want to live here forever and hide from Yin Yichan, that's fine, but Linglong Space has to absorb merit every half a month, otherwise it will gradually die out, the space will slowly shrink, trees will die in pieces, and the water will flow slowly If it dries up, the fish in the water, the birds in the air, and the beasts in the forest will disappear without a trace... At that time, even if you stay here, you will have nothing to eat." Old Man Mu added.

"That is to say, I can neither hide here nor go out. Once I go out, he will find out?" Meng Xiaocom asked.

She remembered that, according to Yin Yichan, he couldn't detect her whereabouts with the exquisite space.

It's just that I don't know whether this statement is true or not. Besides, even if Yin Yichan can't detect her whereabouts, he can still perceive her thoughts with his mind, so he knows where she will go.
