Prime Minister’s Illegitimate Daughter - Chapter 18

Wang Yuhan walked over to Chu Tianzuo with gentle steps. Her limpid eyes gazed at him, not concealing her love for him at all. Brother Tiansuo, you’re here! Yahan pays his respects! ”

Chu Tianzuo still had a paralyzed face as he nodded, “Miss Wang, good morning!”

Chu Mengli, who was standing behind her, looked at Wang Ya Han with an expression of spring. She immediately understood that this Wang Ya Han had taken a fancy to Chu Tianzo! No wonder he was on good terms with Chu Mengdie and even tried to protect her. He wanted to be her sister-in-law and please her in advance!

The two of them spoke as they entered the front hall.

Chu Mengli followed them into the garden, where they saw many beautiful figures shuttling back and forth. The beautiful figures looked like beautiful purple flowers. All the young misses were gathered here, chatting in groups of three or five.

As Wang Ya Han spoke to her, she didn’t bother to care about Chu Mengli and Chu Mengyue.

“Let’s go sit at the side for a while!” Chu Mengli smiled as she pulled Chu Mengyue over to the sparsely populated pavilion.

There were fresh fruits on the table of the pavilion, and the color was very alluring. Chu Mengli did not stand on ceremony and picked up a bunch of purple grapes. Chu Mengyue did not move, but looked at Chu Mengli in shock as she rolled up her sleeves and peeled the grapes.

“Whose servant is this? Why is she so unruly?” A melodious female voice rang out.

Chu Mengli was eating happily, and when she heard this, she raised her head. He saw a few dressed up “butterflies” entering the pavilion.

Chu Mengli looked at the person who spoke, Ji Mingyue?

“Oh? It’s that Chu Mengli who framed her sister two days ago? ” The woman who had spoken earlier asked. Chu Mengli rolled her eyes and saw that there was a gentle and beautiful woman with a surprised expression on her face.

“Is that so? Is that her? ”

“It’s her. I’ve seen Chu Mengdie before at the feast.” Someone was sure.

“Wah!” Is that so? “I didn’t expect him to be so scheming at such a young age.”

“What scheme?” That’s called being vicious, I’ve seen a lot of these things in the house, when those concubines were all dishonest. I heard that the concubine, Fourth Miss, wrongly accused her Third Sister of stealing from her. She’s just a concubine, so what good stuff could she possibly have? Just look at her dressing today, it’s about the same as my family’s most reputable maidservant! ”

“That’s right, my concubine’s sister is one. She feigns pity all day long and is very scheming.”

A few people started to talk among themselves, as if no one else was present. This attracted the attention of the surrounding people, who were also pointing at Chu Mengli.

Chu Mengli took out her handkerchief and leisurely wiped her hands.

Everyone in the capital knew about it? There weren’t many people present at the time, and the maidservants were all serving from close quarters. Even if news were spread out, it would still not reach the various young misses so quickly. Madame Bai and Aunt Liu wouldn’t be stupid enough to tell the news. After all, it would hinder their reputation no matter what, so who would benefit the most if it was spread out? Chu Mengli’s mind raced. When he raised his head to look at Chu Mengdie who was standing outside the crowd, he was able to catch the hint of a smile on her face. Chu Mengli instantly understood, so it was this white lotus.

Chu Mengdie raised her chin and gave a weird smile. She pulled Wang Ya Han away, pretending that she didn’t notice that everyone was making things difficult for her sister in the pavilion.

“Is that enough?” Chu Mengli stood up and brushed away the dust on her skirt.

“What, you’re still not allowed to speak of what you’ve done?” A pretty girl wearing a goose-yellow dress stood up.

Chu Mengli knew her, she was the White Family’s niece, Bai Ningxue. Her father was the assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Bai Yuanfei. He had met her several times before when he came to the Prime Minister’s Estate.

“How come I didn’t know what shameful things I did?” Chu Mengli walked in front of her. Although he was a head shorter, he did not show any fear.

“Humph!” You framed your Third Sister for stealing your stuff, causing your Third Sister to be punished. Do you dare to not admit it? ” Bai Ningxue was high and mighty.

“Who said I framed her?” Chu Mengli raised her eyebrows and asked.

“You framed and wronged Chu Mengshuang. Although Chu Mengshuang was born as a concubine, you were born as a concubine as well, so why would she try to rob you? You relied on your father’s pity for your aunt to pretend to be pitiful all day long! ”

“Does that mean I’m still talented?” From the moment she was born, she knew how to act weak and be bullied by her. ” Chu Mengli mocked.

“Who knows if you usually pretend?” Ji Mingyue said in a low voice in the crowd. Originally, she should not have opened her mouth. However, thinking about how Mo Qingchen had protected her like last time, she felt a little angry.

Chu Mengli looked at her and smiled, “I’ve faked for so many years and was pushed by her onto a fake mountain. I almost died, and she even stole something from me for so many years just to frame her? And then let my father punish her by sending her to the temple to reflect? ”

“That might not be the case. Maybe you’re someone with a plan after all.” Bai Ningxue said unwillingly.

Chu Mengli felt that she was being naive by wanting to reason with them. They came prepared, “So what if I set her up? She wouldn’t have been fooled if she hadn’t been vain. If you have to blame something, you can only blame her for being too greedy and giving me the chance to frame her. ”

Bai Ningxue was rendered speechless by the retort. She fiercely glared at Chu Mengli.

Chu Mengli also didn’t want to argue with them. She walked down the stairs without looking at them, and the crowd naturally parted to form a path.

Chu Mengyue had been hiding in the corner, but now she was nowhere to be seen. Chu Mengli wasn’t angry. Chu Mengyue had learned how to hide from her concubines since she was young. She had to endure because her own weakness and character were good too. After all, Chu Mengyue was still young.
