Chapter 72 Chapter 72: Family reunion, dreamy Meng Chen
"Master Hou, who is this young master?"
Aunt Chen, who was standing next to Marquis Xuanwu, asked in a low voice about Meng Chen's origins. She was Mrs. Hou's dowry maid and Meng Zijin's biological mother.
Aunt Chen felt that Meng Chen looked quite familiar. He looked a bit like the Duke of Qi when he was young. Could it be that he was from the Duke's mansion.
"He is Chen'er."
Chen'er? Aunt Chen was stunned for a moment, wasn't Chen'er beside her?
What happened in the dining hall did not reach her ears, but as a concubine, she was not qualified to dine with the Marquis and his wife.
etc! Could it be Prince Chen!
As an old lady in the Hou Mansion, Aunt Chen immediately thought of who the Chen'er mentioned by Marquis Xuanwu was.
She looked at Meng Chen in surprise as he was trying to calm Madam Hou. She was secretly surprised that the young prince, who had been missing for almost fourteen years and was thought to be dead, actually came back alive. The Hou family was afraid that things were about to change.
Aunt Chen couldn't help but look at Meng Chen. Now that the real thing was back, he might not be of much use as a substitute.
The aunt who entered the palace late did not know the twists and turns, but she felt that Meng Chen was somewhat similar to Marquis Xuanwu, and guessed that he might be Marquis Xuanwu's nephew.
After a moment, Meng Chen, who had finished sorting out Meng's mother's spirit, retracted his fingers. He looked at his mother with a look of guilt in his eyes.
While sorting out his mind, Meng Chen saw many memories of Meng's mother, and personally felt Meng's mother's grief and sorrow after his disappearance. This made Meng Chen feel not only guilty, but also regretful.
It was his negligence.
When he was brought to the Qianyuan Sect, he was knocked unconscious by the surprise of cultivating immortals. He temporarily forgot about his parents in Jin. If he had gone home and told her, Meng's mother would not be so heartbroken and would not suffer from Soul Leaving Syndrome. .
Meng Chen turned around and glanced at Meng Chen. For the sake of him taking his place and accompanying his mother for many years, he could tolerate him as long as this guy didn't commit suicide in front of him.
"Father, I have sorted out the sea of consciousness for my mother and cured her soul-leaving syndrome. She will wake up soon."
When Marquis Xuanwu heard this, he secretly thought that this was the method of land gods. The soul-leaving syndrome that even the great master could not cure could be cured with a click of a finger.
"You all go down." Marquis Xuanwu said to all the concubines and children.
Meng Chen looked at the few more younger brothers and sisters and was quite surprised. His father was really able to have children. Counting his eldest brother who died young, he had nine children.
"Chen'er~"
Suddenly, a weak voice sounded. Meng Chen took the lead after hearing it, ran to Meng's mother's bedside, and said quickly: "Mom, Chen'er is here."
Meng Chen frowned slightly when he saw this substitute being so active.
"You are not my Chen'er."
Meng's mother, whose soul-leaving syndrome was cured, looked at Meng Chen and shook her head. Her memory was extremely clear now, and she knew that the boy beside her bed was not her biological child, but a substitute that her husband had found to appease her.
Meng Chen's defense was almost broken by Meng Chen's words.
He has played the role of a good son to Mother Meng for more than ten years. Now that the real one comes back, will he abandon him? !
Meng's mother raised her head with difficulty, and Meng Chen quickly stepped forward to support her, calling softly: "Mother, Chen'er is here."
Hearing this, Jiang Yuncheng (Meng's mother) looked at Meng Chen, her eyes instantly turned red, she raised her hand to caress his eyebrows and cheeks, her tears couldn't stop flowing down, and the joy of regaining made her cry with joy, and she choked with sobs:
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Woo..."
Jiang Yunyun leaned into Meng Chen's arms and cried loudly, pouring out all the thoughts he had over the years. His tears wet Meng Chen's clothes and made Meng Chen feel even more guilty.
Seeing this scene, Marquis Xuanwu felt a flash of red in his eyes, and stepped forward to comfort his wife.
"Don't cry. Now that Chen'er is back, we are reunited as a family. How can you cry on such a happy day? It makes my eyes itchy and there is a lot of wind and sand." Comforting and comforting, Marquis Xuanwu He also cried. He held Jiang Yunyu and Meng Chen in his arms. After almost fourteen years, their family was finally reunited.
When Aunt Chen and other concubines saw this scene, they were not as happy as Marquis Xuanwu and his wife. Especially the two aunts who had given birth to a son looked quite ugly.
Meng Chen lowered his head to prevent others from seeing his expression.
After a while, Jiang Yuncheng, who was tired from crying, fell asleep in Meng Chen's arms. Marquis Xuanwu asked everyone to leave so as not to disturb the mistress's rest, while Meng Chen stayed to accompany his mother.
…………
Prince's other courtyard, Tengyun Pavilion.
After Meng Chen returned to his residence, he immediately closed the door. His face instantly darkened, his eyes were so dark that they were almost dripping with water, and he let out waves of low growls.
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Why is it that when that guy comes back, his father and mother only have eyes for him! Why!"
"I have been missing for almost fourteen years, why should I come back! It took a lot of effort for me to have all this, don't even think about taking it away from me! Rest!"
When the two personal maids saw that their prince had such a big reaction, the gentle and pretty maid in blue hurriedly asked:
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? Who's back?"
"Who else, except Meng Chen, who should have died, can threaten my position!"
Meng Chen gritted his teeth and was furious, wishing that Meng Chen would disappear immediately so that no one could threaten him.
It’s been almost fourteen years since you disappeared, why are you back?
Although the sisters are not old people in the Hou Mansion, they have also heard some old people mention that there once was a Crown Prince Meng Chen in the Hou Mansion, but he disappeared thirteen or fourteen years ago. So, that person is back again?
Otherwise, how could the prince lose such a temper.
Meng Chen's mind was now filled with thoughts on how to get rid of Meng Chen without anyone noticing, but due to his skill in curing the Soul Leaving Syndrome, he guessed that he was very powerful and did not dare to act rashly.
"Your Majesty, do you want to get rid of that Meng Chen?"
The gorgeous and charming maid in red saw through her master's thoughts at a glance. After all, her master was just the adopted son of the Hou Mansion. Now that the real master was back, if he wanted to avoid being abandoned, he had to get rid of Meng Chen.
Meng Chen: "Why, do you have any good ideas?"
The maid in red suggested: "You can go to the Shadow Tower and issue a reward. They can even assassinate the Grand Master. Even if Meng Chen has martial arts skills, can he be stronger than the Grand Master?"
"No, it's too obvious."
However, Meng Chen refused without thinking. If Meng Chen died in an assassination, he would be the first to suspect.
Maid in red: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, you can choose the way Meng Chen dies in the Shadow Tower, whether he dies in the street or accidentally."
When Meng Chen heard this, he remembered that the Shadow Tower did indeed say this. After all, this maid of his was once the Xuanzi killer of the Shadow Tower, and her strength was at the sixth level.
Meng Chen: "Wait for a while, and you can help me issue a mission. Give all the heirs of the Hou Mansion an assassination mission. Including me, killing a few more people from the Hou Mansion will be an accident."
It has to be said that Meng Chen is still very cautious. As long as all the heirs of the Hou family are on the assassination list, there will be no suspicion on him.
It's a pity that he still doesn't know what kind of existence Meng Chen he tried so hard to get rid of is. If he knew, he wouldn't be so wishful thinking.
