Chapter 2031 She is not one of the four beauties
Looking at Zheng Mei who was looking angry in front of him, Shi Li couldn't help laughing after frowning, and even reached out to touch the hairpin on her head.
Ever since she gave the hairpin she made to Zheng Mei, she loved it so much that she always wore it and no other jewelry pleased her.
"Since they have found you, go and see who is here to see you." She was also curious about how the "monsters" outside wanted to use Zheng Mei to deceive her.
Hearing this, Zheng Mei was no longer angry. Instead, she said to her coquettishly, "Then I'll go and take a look. But you have to arrange for a few more palace servants to follow me. I'm afraid they'll catch me outside the palace gate!"
She was not stupid. She knew that this matter was strange, but she would still rush into it.
Shi Li nodded in agreement, and asked a group of people to follow Zheng Mei and march towards the palace gate.
At the corner gate leading to the outside of the palace, there was indeed a timid middle-aged man standing there, looking carefully into the palace from time to time.
But when he saw Zheng Mei coming towards him surrounded by a group of people, his expression twitched and he even wanted to turn around and run away.
Then he thought of the purpose of coming here, and he held back his anger, forced a smile, and waited for Zheng Mei to come closer.
Zheng Mei also saw him, and her steps paused slightly. She turned her head and said to the palace servant who followed her: "Catch this man. I don't know him. He pretended to be my father, so he must have bad intentions!"
The man who came was actually the original owner's father. He was deceived by Fang Li and Shi Li, so he came to pretend to be Zheng Mei's family. His purpose was to trick her out of the palace and use her as bait to trick Shi Li out.
Originally, he didn't want to do such a dangerous thing, but he couldn't resist his precious daughter Shi Li's desperate begging in front of him.
Moreover, Shi Li also said that as long as she and Shi Li exchanged identities, she would bring her parents to the palace as soon as possible so that they could live the best life.
Her father was tricked into believing it, and only then did he muster up the courage to run to the palace and lie that he was Zheng Mei's father.
Who would have thought that Zheng Mei would call for people to arrest him as soon as they met, without even coming close.
"Zheng Mei! Don't forget, your family is still in Wu Country. Do you still want to see your father and mother again?" He couldn't run away at all, and tried every way to shout when he was caught.
Zheng Mei paused, turned back and looked at him with a frown, as if she was really persuaded.
She is different from Shi Li, who was ignored by her father and mother since childhood. She used to be a favored little daughter in the family.
"Hurry up and let someone let me go. I want to tell you about your family situation." Seeing that she was hesitating, Shi Li's father immediately struck while the iron was hot.
The golden crow gradually tilted towards the west, filling the hall with golden twilight.
Under the guidance of Zan Niang, Shi Li pointed out a small pearl flower, held it in her hand and looked at it left and right with great satisfaction.
Zheng Mei walked in with a heavy heart and called her with a frown on her face.
"What's wrong? Why do you look so unhappy?" Shi Li put down the pearl flowers and looked at her with concern.
Zheng Mei shook her head, said nothing, and just sat down quietly beside her.
She has always been an open-minded girl, and her sudden behavior made Shi Li a little worried. So she asked the two hairpin ladies to leave first, leaving only Zheng Mei, and asked her again what happened.
Zheng Mei was silent for a long time, and finally looked up at her, a little worried and nervous, "Ali, I miss home a little, can you let me go home?"
Before, she just thought that she was satisfied to live a good life, worry-free and have good food every day. But what Shi Li's father said today did give her some other thoughts.
Since Shi Li has the final say in the palace, it wouldn't be a big deal to just have someone send her back to the Wu Kingdom, right?
