Meng Yue picked up the tea cup unhurriedly, took a sip of tea, and replied calmly:
"Wang's wife and the king are here, why should I be anxious?"
"Are you still angry with your brother? He was doing it for your own good..."
"Sister-in-law Wang, I don't want to mention what happened back then."
What happened back then was the only thing that could make her mood fluctuate a little.
Over the years, she has tried hard to forget what happened back then. For this reason, she has developed the character of being calm and calm when things happen.
In the first few years, when Xina was sick, the queen would order someone to tell her, and she would become anxious, but she still would not take a step forward.
Over time, she knew that when Xina fell ill, a royal doctor would come to treat her, so she no longer worried.
Until later, no one came to inform her about Xina.
Although she would ask someone to secretly inquire about her current situation, it would only be an inquiry.
The queen finally picked up the tea cup. After taking a sip of tea, she put it down again. Then she raised her eyebrows and said calmly to herself:
"Xina is such a willful child. It's all my fault. It's because I neglected to discipline her and she developed a curious temperament. She heard that there was a princess in Daning Kingdom who looked exactly like her. If she had to sneak away to take a look, it’s better now. She has seen the man, and she has been captured. She doesn’t know if the enemy is in trouble... Alas!"
Her words made Meng Yue startled for a moment. Her originally calm face suddenly became filled with doubts, and there was even an elusive look in her eyes.
She fixed her eyes and looked at the queen, and asked softly in surprise,
"You said Xina goes to meet someone who looks exactly like her?"
Seeing that she was interested in this matter, the queen nodded pretending not to care.
"Yes, I also think this is very interesting. People born in two countries can look exactly the same. Even Letu can admit his mistake. If Xina is not your child, I will wonder if they are twin sisters. "
When the queen said this, she looked at Meng Yue's face carefully.
Suddenly a trace of tears flashed across her eyes, and then disappeared.
Her hands were trembling as she went to hold the tea cup on the table. Perhaps she was too nervous, and her hands were unsteady and she knocked the tea cup over on the table, causing the tea to flow on the floor.
"Xiaohong, Xiaohong."
Her hurried shouting scared Xiaohong and she trotted in. When she saw the overturned teacup, she asked and wiped it with the handkerchief in her hand.
"Princess, are you okay? Is the base of this cup unstable? It's all my fault. I didn't check carefully when I took the cup. Did it burn you?"
Meng Yue had no intention of listening to her nagging apology, but looked blankly into the distance.
Probably only she knows what she is thinking.
The queen sitting next to her seemed to see something. She raised the handkerchief in her hand and wiped the corners of her mouth before continuing:
"The war between Chu State and Daning State has been going on for a long time. I have advised the king many times not to harass Daning State many times, but he did not listen and always provoked disputes overtly or covertly. Now I am fine. I My son was captured by the enemy, and I wanted to rescue them, but because the enemy's camp was too tightly fortified, I couldn't do anything. I forced myself to attack the enemy's camp, and I was afraid of hurting them when I rescued them. It would be more of a loss than a gain. , I really don’t know what to do now.”
Hearing this, Meng Yue suddenly frowned, raised her hazy eyes and whispered softly:
"Why would the king deliberately stir up trouble?"
The queen suddenly smiled, helplessly and sadly,
"To this day, I don't know why. It's just that countless people are homeless because of the constant war between the two countries, and countless soldiers have died in battle. I'm afraid you have been hiding all day. Eating fast and chanting Buddha's name in the room cannot comfort these souls who died in vain.
Her words were harsh, but Meng Yue suddenly looked at her with a cold face,
"What do you mean by this? Are you blaming me? Could it be that the war between the two countries started because of me?"
The queen looked at her sideways and nodded sadly,
"I don't know if it's because of you. I only know that since he brought you back from Daning Country, he has been harassing the people around Daning Country endlessly in order to deliberately provoke a war. I tried to come to I asked you, but you avoided it. I came today just to tell you that countless people have been killed and injured because of this war. Now your daughter and my son are also captured because of this war. Are they alive or dead? unknown."
After saying this, she stood up from the chair and sighed quietly as she walked forward:
"I envy you very much. You hide here all day long, eat fasting, and chant Buddha's name. You don't have to worry about anything. You don't care about worldly things. You can live your peaceful life peacefully. However, you alone are peaceful, but there are countless people living a wandering life. On those days, perhaps only you and the king know why all this happened!"
After saying this, the domineering queen lifted her skirt and walked out the door without saying a word or looking back.
She probably knew her temper. She was too stubborn. Otherwise, when Meng Xin brought her back by force, she would not have entered the ancestral hall and not come out, not even her own daughter.
And she has lived here for more than 20 years. She can't figure this out no matter how hard she thinks about it.
After the queen left, Meng Yue suddenly covered her mouth and burst into tears. Over the years, she had cried secretly countless times, and she had hated and hurt in her heart, but she would not show it in front of the girl.
This time, for some unknown reason, her mood suddenly collapsed, and her tears poured out like a ferocious beast, unable to stop them.
When the girl Xiaohong saw this, she came over in a panic and comforted her:
"Princess, please don't cry. What's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"
Meng Yue cried and waved her hands vigorously,
"You go down first and leave me alone."
She suddenly felt that she was a little ridiculous. In order to vent her anger with Meng Xin, she went into this ancestral hall and did not go out for many years. However, during this period, Meng Xin actually started a war with Daning Kingdom.
She had always thought that the war between the two countries was inevitable, but she did not expect that Meng Xin deliberately started it.
If he did this because of himself, then her sin was really too heavy.
It seems that she can no longer sit idly by and ignore this matter, otherwise, she will really become the sinner accused by thousands of people.
Thinking of this, she closed her eyes tightly, then opened them and shouted outside:
"Xiaohong, change my clothes, I want to go out..."
She had not been out of this yard for more than 20 years. She had been escaping from reality. She just wanted to lock herself here, she thought, so that she would not think of the past that made her sad.
Now, it's time for her to go out...
