After three years of slavery, the entire mansion begged me for forgiveness

The next day.

Qiao Nian was not on duty.

So he stayed in the mansion and stayed with Meng Yingzhi.

Perhaps it was because he was in a new environment and was not very familiar with it, Meng Yingzhi's eyes revealed fear.

But at least I can recognize that Qiao Nian is a good person.

Therefore, when Meng Yingzhi was with Qiao Nian, he always felt comfortable.

Sitting next to the osmanthus tree, holding the pastry handed to him by Ningshuang, Meng Yingzhi had a faint smile on his face. He looked up at the branches full of osmanthus flowers with a calm and natural expression.

Perhaps to avoid suspicion, when Xiao He came yesterday, he did not see Meng Yingzhi.

But at this moment, Qiao Nian looked at Meng Yingzhi like this, and thought about what Xiao He had described before, and she felt that she was worthy of being the woman who had won the favor of Brother Xiao.

But she became more and more confused. She and Brother Xiao were so good friends, why did she poison him?

However, there is no need to rush. Just wait until Meng Yingzhi is cured, and she will have the answer.

Just as I was thinking about it, the housekeeper of the Pingyang Palace came hurriedly, "Miss, the Meng family is here."

Qiao Nian was not surprised. Meng Yingzhi's family was not weak. After such a big thing happened, they would naturally come to pick up Meng Yingzhi.

So she said she understood and asked the housekeeper to bring the person over.

The person who came was Mrs. Meng, who was also Meng Yingzhi's biological mother.

As soon as she entered the yard, she bowed to Qiao Nian, her eyes burning with sadness. Looking at Meng Yingzhi who was sitting beside her without any reaction, her eyes suddenly turned red.

"Thanks to Master Qiao, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have known that my son was injured like this by that beast!"

As Mrs. Meng spoke, she began to wipe away her tears.

Qiao Nian stood up to greet her and said with a slow smile, "Mrs. Meng is so polite. According to Wan Zeyue, Miss Meng has been ill for four or five years, so it will take some time for her to recover."

Hearing this, Madam Meng's face froze slightly.

How could she not hear that Qiao Nian was hinting at her?

She had been ill for four or five years, but as Meng Yingzhi's mother, she said she didn't know about Meng Yingzhi's condition.

How is that possible?

In this world, isn’t the closest relationship between mother and daughter?

It was indeed her. Before she was abandoned by the Marquis's Mansion, she was the closest to Madam Lin.

Meng Yingzhi's mother must have known that Wan Zeyue would abuse her.

Whether it was in a letter or when the mother and daughter were reunited, Meng Yingzhi would definitely ask for help.

But what is the result?

Now that Meng Yingzhi has become what he is now, does that mean the Meng family is completely innocent?

Madam Meng wiped her tears to hide the embarrassment on her face, pretending not to understand Qiao Nian's sarcasm, and said, "My master said that he would come to thank Master Qiao in person one day, and asked me to bring Yingzhi back as soon as possible."

This was because he was afraid that Qiao Nian would not release the person, so he specifically mentioned the Minister of War, Lord Meng.

Chu Zhiyi was leading troops outside, and all logistical matters were closely related to the Ministry of War.

Unexpectedly, Qiao Nian had no intention of stopping him. He nodded slightly and said to Madam Meng, "Okay."

Hearing this, Madam Meng was delighted, and then she told the maids behind her, "Hurry up and help the young lady!"

"Yes." The maids bowed and responded, then went forward to support Meng Yingzhi.

But he didn't expect that as soon as his hands touched Meng Yingzhi, she waved them away in panic, "Don't come over, don't hit me! Wuuuuu, don't hit me!"

There was a smile hidden in Qiao Nian's eyes.

Mrs. Meng was shocked. "How could this happen? Yingzhi, it's me, I'm your mother..."

Mrs. Meng said as she walked towards Meng Yingzhi.

But Meng Yingzhi seemed to not recognize anyone at this moment, and even Madam Meng could not get close to her.

When Meng Yingzhi waved his hands, he ended up scratching the back of Mrs. Meng's hand.

Mrs. Meng screamed and withdrew her hand, then looked at Meng Yingzhi with horror, as if he had gone crazy.

"How could this happen?" She asked helplessly, and then, as if she remembered something, she looked at Qiao Nian, "Master Qiao, Yingzhi, how could she..."

Qiao Nian then smiled slightly, then walked forward and came to the side of Meng Yingzhi.

"Miss Meng, it's okay."

With just one sentence, Meng Yingzhi gradually calmed down. His originally panicked eyes slowly looked towards Qiao Nian, and then gradually calmed down.

Looking at this scene, Mrs. Meng was speechless.

Then I heard Qiao Nian say, "Ms. Meng seems to only recognize me now. Anyone else who comes close will be kicked away. Not to mention Madam Meng, even my maid's hand was scratched by her."

Upon hearing this, Ningshuang immediately stepped forward and showed the wound on her hand to Madam Meng.

She was scratched by Meng Yingzhi yesterday, but after being comforted by the young lady, Miss Meng finally recognized her, so she could serve her closely.

But after listening to Qiao Nian's words, Madam Meng's face turned ugly, "So, Master Qiao means that I can't take her away today?"

"Of course not." Qiao Nian said slowly, "It's just that it would be better for Miss Meng to stay, but she is the daughter of the Meng family after all, how can I stop you from taking her away?"

It would be better to stay, it would be bad to take away.

Meng Yingzhi was so resistant that she had to be taken away by force.

But as a mother, how could I make a decision that was not good for my daughter?

Mrs. Meng was suddenly put on the spot and didn't know what to do.

The master repeatedly warned us to bring Yingzhi back.

But in Yingzhi's situation, even if she could be taken out of the Prince Pingyang's Mansion, people would see her acting crazy and noisy, and who knows how many rumors would spread by then.

After thinking for a while, Mrs. Meng said, "Master Qiao is a skilled doctor. Is there any way to make Yingzhi fall asleep?"

The word "sleep" was used cleverly. In fact, it was just asking Qiao Nian whether he could make someone faint.

In this way, the person can be taken away quietly.

Qiao Nian nodded slowly, "I do have some drugs that can be used, but you can see that Miss Meng is mentally damaged. If I use drugs, it will probably make her condition worse."

Since Mrs. Meng came here with the image of a loving mother, how could she be willing to let her daughter's condition worsen?

Mrs. Meng's face became increasingly uglier.

Qiao Nian glanced at Ning Shuang who was standing beside him.

Ning Shuang understood and spoke immediately, "Why didn't Madam Meng let Miss Meng stay? My young lady is a disciple of the genius doctor, so she can naturally take better care of Miss Meng than you. If you force Miss Meng to go back like this, it will not be good for her, you..."

"Ningshuang." Qiao Nian interrupted Ningshuang and smiled slightly, "This is the Meng family's family affair."

Ningshuang then said "Oh" and said nothing more.

But Mrs. Meng understood what Qiao Nian meant.

What Qiao Nian meant by this was that she already knew what the Meng family was planning, but since it was the Meng family's family affair, it was difficult for her to stop it.

but……

Maybe he’ll tell the Queen, or even the Emperor!

He immediately laughed awkwardly, "This girl is right. Yingzhi is in the best situation now if she stays with Master Qiao. In that case, I won't bother you anymore. I just ask Master Qiao to take good care of my daughter. The Meng family will definitely reward you handsomely!"

After this was said, no one could say that the Meng family had something to hide.

Qiao Nian still smiled softly, "Don't worry, Madam Meng."

How about picking someone up in person?

Not to mention Mrs. Meng, even if Lord Meng came, no one could take Meng Yingzhi away today.
