Meng Weiwei was stunned for a long time. Suddenly, she grabbed Shen

Yueqin’s hands and asked anxiously, “Mother, how’s the Bai family now?’

Shen Yueqin asked curiously, “What Bai family?”

Meng Weiwei tried her best to recall before saying, “It’s that Editor Bai from the library!”

Editors were just small officials in the Imperial City. Shen Yueqin had no impression of them at all.

Meng Weiwei continued, “It’s the Bai family that took in their mistress as soon as the first wife died!”

At the mention of this, Shen Yueqin remembered that at that time, she had invited someone to her residence to attend the flower festival. After being teased at the flower festival, the Bai family’s second wife never dared to appear in the Imperial City again.

Shen Yueqin said, “I remember that when the Ling Kingdom started the war, Editor Bai was a.s.signed to the Jingnan Prefecture to become a magistrate. Now, he’s already a member of the Ling Kingdom. I heard that the concubine that the Eldest Prince married in the Jingnan Prefecture is a female member of the Bai family.

A Bai family’s female member had become the Eldest Prince’s secondary consort!

What about the daughter then?

Meng Weiwei’s pupils constricted as she looked at the inn, confused.

But since the other party had seen her, why didn’t she find trouble with her?

Could it be that she could not be bothered to be in contact with her and was worried that she would s.n.a.t.c.h her husband away?

Shen Yueqin did not see her daughter’s darkened expression and could not help but sigh. ‘What goes around comes around.”

Fortunately, she had only “kindly” invited the other party and did not take the lead to target the Bai family.

Otherwise, if the Eldest Prince’s secondary consort wanted to settle scores with them, their lives would probably be in danger.

Shen Yueqin reacted and asked curiously, “Why are you asking this?”

Meng Weiwei lowered her eyes to hide her expression. “l was just asking.” She had to figure out the situation first.

There were many people accompanying Bai Wutong’s carriage. At the front of the carriage were the subordinates of the Southern Frontier’s governor.

Staying in the same inn as the governor of the Southern Frontier meant that they knew each other and had a close relations.h.i.+p.

Bai Wutong’s carriage looked low-key, but it was actually made of the best wood. Meng Weiwei was even more certain that Chu Tianbao’s ident.i.ty was extraordinary. It was very likely that he was the son of the governor of the Southern Frontier.

But that was just a guess.

Meng Weiwei quietly approached Auntie Yang and said pitifully, “Auntie, can you give me a bowl of water? My mother and I haven’t had water for a long time.”

Aunt Yang looked up. She was a young girl in her teens. Her face was dusty and her mouth was dry and bleeding. She was still wearing cold chains on her wrists.

Auntie Yang took pity on her and immediately fetched a bowl of hot water from the pot that she had prepared to cook noodles. “Here, young lady.”

Meng Weiwei smiled sweetly. “Thank you.’

After Meng Weiwei handed the hot water to Shen Yueqin, she slowly drank it.

When Auntie Yang saw this, she couldn’t help but sigh. Why was such a good child so pitiful and was about to be sold to the Southern Frontier?

After Meng Weiwei finished drinking, she returned the bowl to Auntie Yang. “Thank you, Auntie. I’ll remember your kindness.”

Auntie Yang smiled and said, “It’s just a bowl of water. Young lady, don’t take it to heart.”

Meng Weiwei shook her head firmly. “I don’t have anything now. Is Auntie going to the Southern Frontier too? If there’s a chance, I’ll definitely repay you in the future.”

Her sincere words moved Auntie Yang. She patted her hand and said, ‘That’s right. We’re going to the Southern Frontier too. Along the way, come find me if you want to drink water.”

Regardless, they could still afford a bowl of water.

Meng Weiwei thought that she had gained Auntie Yang’s trust, so she probed, “Thank you, Auntie. I saw that Auntie went to feed the horse just now. Does that horse belong to your master?”

Auntie Yang followed her gaze and landed on the carriage. She turned to look at Meng Weiwei again, but there was an imperceptible scrutiny on her face.

Chu Tianbao and Bai Wutong were outstanding-looking. There would always be people with ill intentions who wanted to get close to them.

Auntie Yang and the others had seen too much, so their vigilance was extraordinarily high.

Auntie Yang asked back, ‘Why are you asking this?”

Meng Weiwei was slightly stunned. Her heart beat quickly as she smiled awkwardly. “I was just asking.”

Meng Weiwei kept saying that she wanted to thank her but she was actually trying to dig up on Bai Wutong and Chu Tianbao’s backgrounds.

She was clearly a scheming girl. She thought that Auntie Yang was a country old lady who knew nothing and deliberately approached her to get information from her.

Auntie Yang’s gaze instantly turned cold. “What about you? Why are you exiled to the Southern Frontier?”

Meng Weiwei was slightly stunned. She did not know why she was the one ended up being interrogated by Auntie Yang when she was the one who first asked the questions.

However, she could not arouse Auntie Yang’s suspicion yet. She said sadly,

‘We’re members from the side family of the royal family. Since Emperor Ling Hui has given the orders, we have no choice but to obey.” As she spoke, Meng Weiwei really teared and looked very pitiful.

However, Auntie Yang became even more alarmed. The members of the royal family were naturally used to living a good life. Now that she had been demoted to an official slave in the Southern Frontier, she must be anxious to get rid of this ident.i.ty. It made sense why she wanted to ask about Bai Wutong and Chu Tianbao.

Auntie Yang’s eyes flashed quickly. She had to tell Madam Bai as soon as possible, so as not to let someone with ulterior motives find an opportunity behind her back to sow discord between her and Chu Tianbao.

Auntie Yang comforted Meng Weiwei perfunctorily and immediately found an excuse to leave.

Meng Weiwei did not get anything out of Auntie Yang. She gritted her teeth and could only change her target.

Auntie Yang entered the inn as if she had expected it. Qingfeng led her into the room of Bai Wutong.

When Chu Tianbao was not around, Auntie Yang said, “Madam Bai, I don’t know if I’m thinking too much. That young lady seems to be especially interested in you and Master Chu.’

The thought of Meng Weiwei disgusted Bai Wutong. “What did she say?’

Auntie Yang said, “I dodged all the questions she wanted to ask. However, I found out from her that she’s a female members of the previous dynasty’s royal family.”

She specially reminded, “I heard that the female members have to be sent to the Southern Frontier to be the wives of the soldiers.” The young lady was proud and arrogant, so she was naturally unwilling.

Bai Wutong raised her eyebrows and suddenly smiled. “Thank you, Auntie Yang. I know what to do. The royal family of the previous dynasty has long ceased to exist. The young lady is young, so it’s normal for her not to realise what’s reality.”

Auntie Yang had said everything she needed to say. Bai Wutong knew what to do and Auntie Yang could be at ease. She smiled and said, ‘Then I’ll go back.”

Bai Wutong nodded. After Auntie Yang went out, she stood on the windowsill and looked down.

Meng Weiwei had approached Madam Qu’s second daughter-in-law. Unfortunately, He Chunbai saw that she was wearing chains and chased her away with a look of disdain.

She did not give up and asked anyone as long as she could find out anything about the two of them. Everyone looked at her as if they were guarding against thieves.

Only then did Meng Weiwei understand that she had thought that she had disguised herself well. Auntie Yang had probably seen through her and informed the rest.

She stood rooted to the ground and stomped her feet hatefully. She looked up and met the cold gaze of Bai Wutong.

In an instant, she felt as if she had been stripped naked and had nowhere to hide.

At this point, what was the use of shame? Meng Weiwei turned around fiercely.

She had to take down Chu Tianbao..
