In the afternoon poetry recital, Meng Guxue performed "stablely" as always. Today, she really firmly established her reputation as the most talented woman.
Baili Chengyou looked at Meng Guxue without any scruples at the poetry meeting. Anyone could see that he was really interested.
So after the poetry meeting ended that day, word spread in Beijing circles that Baili Chengyou fell in love with Meng Guxue at first sight at the poetry meeting.
The candidate for this marriage must be Meng Guxue!
When Mrs. Meng learned the news, she was so frightened that she almost fainted!
As soon as Meng Guxue returned home, Mrs. Meng quickly grabbed her and said with a white face:
"Xue'er, what happened at the poetry meeting today? Mother told you not to go, but you insist on going!"
Meng Guxue had already made a decision in her heart. Seeing Mrs. Meng who really loved her since time travel, she couldn't help but feel a little softer.
Poor Mrs. Meng, how did she know that her daughter had already died from the high fever.
She took over the body of "Meng Guxue" and made Mrs. Meng worry about it for more than a year, and she felt really guilty.
She has nothing to repay Mrs. Meng. If she agrees to a marriage tomorrow, Emperor Yong will naturally promote the Meng family and treat it as giving the Meng family a fortune.
From now on, the bridge will return to the bridge, and the road will return to the road. I'm afraid I won't be able to see each other again for the rest of my life...
"Mom, don't listen to their nonsense."
No matter how many thoughts were surging in his heart, Meng Guxue remained calm and held Mrs. Meng's arm affectionately.
Mrs. Meng was full of doubts, "The rumors have already made a big fuss, can they still be groundless?"
Meng Guxue smiled and nodded, "Mom, of course it's fake!"
"There are so many legitimate daughters from high families in the capital, so their mere talents mean nothing. Then why does the third prince like me -"
At this point, Meng Guxue's expression froze slightly, and she suddenly froze on the spot.
Mrs. Meng was shocked when she saw Meng Guxue's face suddenly turn pale.
"Xue'er, what happened suddenly?"
Meng Guxue's heart skipped a beat. A suspicion suddenly took root in her heart and began to grow wildly!
"Mom, I'm really tired today and want to go back and rest first."
Meng Guxue forced out a smile and said warmly.
Mrs. Meng was worried, but seeing that Meng Guxue was indeed not feeling well, she could only send her back to her room worriedly.
"Xiao Tao, take good care of Miss."
Xiaotao was busy and agreed.
After Mrs. Meng left, Meng Guxue threw herself on the bed, her heart already in chaos.
During the day, she was beguiled by Baili Chengyou's tenderness, but now it seems that his words are still full of loopholes!
She also had a dream. In the dream, she and the second prince were so deeply in love.
But after waking up from the dream, although she had a special affection for the second prince, she was not so affectionate that she had to be with him.
If she is like this, wouldn't Baili Chengyou, who can become the king of a country, be more sober than her...
Thinking of this, Meng Guxue suddenly felt cold all over!
If Baili Chengyou really had a dream, then he should also know that she has modern knowledge in her mind and she can help him.
Use, it’s all use...
Meng Guxue tightly clenched the quilt under her body. At this moment, she was sober as never before!
Xiaotao was frightened by Meng Guxue's behavior. Wasn't the lady still very happy during the day?
"Miss? You...what's wrong with you?"
Meng Guxue buried her face in the quilt and shook her head gently after a while.
"Xiao Tao, prepare some water, I want to take a bath."
She had to think carefully about where to go tomorrow!

Zongren Mansion.
Zhufeng was reporting everything that happened at the poetry meeting today to the second prince.
When Zhufeng mentioned the difference between Baili Chengyou and Meng Guxue, there was annoyance in Zhufeng's words.
He helped His Highness take things from Meng Guxue, so he always acquiesced that Meng Guxue belonged to His Highness.
But at today's poetry meeting, whether it was Baili Chengyou's earnestness or Meng Guxue's private meeting with Baili Chengyou, he felt that Meng Guxue seemed to be out of His Highness's control!
"Did they meet in private?"
The second prince sat behind the case, his tone calm.
Zhufeng nodded quickly, "The subordinates followed outside Taolin. Before they could enter, Prince Baili's five followers stared at Taolin to death."
"Prince Baili came later and entered the peach forest. The two of them were alone inside for more than a quarter of an hour."
"The subordinates stayed in the distance and watched Prince Baili come out, followed by Miss Meng, with an obvious smile on her face."
When the second prince heard this, his eyes fell on the poetry collection beside the desk, his eyes filled with deep thought.
He had always been certain that Meng Guxue had a secret.
Whether it's the wonderful poems in different styles that she picked up casually, or the three recipes she mastered.
Perhaps, this is just the tip of the iceberg that he knows, and there are other surprises in Meng Guxue that have not been discovered.
If he hadn't been suddenly banned for a year, those three formulas... he would have pried them out of Meng Guxue's mouth.
He could see that Meng Guxue was ambitious.
So, just because of his silence this year, Meng Guxue climbed up and down, and shifted her target to Baili Chengyou, right...
Thinking of this, the second prince twitched his lips coolly.
What surprised him the most was Baili Chengyou's attitude.
Why was he suddenly interested in Meng Guxue? Or is it that he also keenly captured the specialness of Meng Guxue?
However, Baili Chengyou is just a new arrival, and Meng Guxue has not written many poems in front of others, so it is not enough to arouse suspicion, right?
And according to what Zhufeng said, Baili Chengyou showed great enthusiasm when he first met Meng Guxue at the poetry meeting.
After Baili Chengyou came to Yong Dynasty, everything he did was really weird.
The second prince tapped the long case over and over again and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
Interesting, so interesting…
In any case, it is obvious that Baili Chengyou wants to get Meng Guxue.
There was no way he would let Meng Guxue and Baili Chengyou leave.
After all, he hasn't gotten the three formulas yet, and he hasn't figured out all the secrets about Meng Guxue yet...
"Zhufeng, I already know this. Are you ready for everything else?"
When Zhufeng heard this, his expression immediately became solemn.
"Your Highness, please rest assured, everything is ready, just waiting for the banquet tomorrow!"
The second prince heard this and nodded slightly.
The next moment, he slowly stood up and walked to the window.
The cold moonlight enveloped him, and looking at his back, he still looked like a young man.
Seeing this, Zhufeng wanted to step forward and put a cloak on the second prince, but he refused.
"Your Highness, it's cold at night, so you should take care of yourself."
The second prince shook his head, not paying much attention.
After a while, he suddenly said calmly:
"Zhufeng, the moon and stars are sparse tonight, it looks like the weather will be good tomorrow."
"Speaking of which, I haven't seen my father for a long time."
