Chapter 699 The delicate little white flower that dreams of flying onto the branch 12
This is so disrespectful to Nan Chaochao that no matter how much she likes Meng Huaijin, she will still speak for Nanny Lin.
"I'm not being indulgent towards my servants. It's just that Nanny Lin is different from the others. She's my wet nurse and used to be my mother's personal maid. She's treated me like her own daughter since I was born. You're being too harsh in saying that about her."
Nan Chaochao was indeed speaking up for Nanny Lin.
But her voice became smaller and smaller, as if speaking up for Nanny Lin was something she had done wrong.
But Nanny Lin next to her was very moved.
In order to avoid making things difficult for Nan Chaochao, she actually knelt down in front of Meng Huaijin and said, "I know I was wrong. Please don't blame the princess. This is all my fault. I am willing to accept the punishment myself."
"Okay, the princess is soft-hearted, and Nanny Lin is sensible. Then I'll give her twenty slaps as a lesson. She won't dare to do it again next time."
Meng Huaijin was still brooding over what happened last time when Nanny Lin was too talkative, so he decided to teach this old slave a lesson.
Seeing that Nanny Lin was about to be slapped twenty times, Nan Chaochao became a little anxious.
She looked at Meng Huaijin and pleaded, "Madame Lin is old and still by my side. If someone slaps her in the face, what's the difference between that and slapping me in the face? Are you trying to force her to death?"
Meng Huaijin picked up the teacup with a calm demeanor.
He looked at Nanny Lin and asked, "Nanny, do you think I'm forcing you?"
Just now, Nanny Lin took the initiative to accept the punishment because she didn't want Meng Huaijin to vent his anger on Nan Chaochao.
Now she shook her head towards Nan Chaochao and said, "I am fine, Princess, don't worry. I have done something wrong and deserve to be punished. Please don't plead for me."
At this time, Nanny Lin still had a gentle look in her eyes. How could Nan Chaochao not know that she was doing this for him?
Seeing Nanny Lin bowing and accepting the punishment, Nan Chaochao's eyes turned red and she almost cried.
"Did you come to my yard just to punish Aunt Lin?"
There was less tenderness in her eyes when she looked at Meng Huaijin, which surprised Meng Huaijin. He didn't expect Nan Chaochao to look at him like this.
In the past, he always felt that Nan Chaochao was a bit annoying. Every time he looked at him, his eyes were like those of a hungry wolf, as if he wanted to swallow him up.
Meng Huaijin shook his head slightly at Nan Chaochao.
"Of course it's not for such a small matter. Punishing a slave who relies on his power is not enough for me to personally go and beat him up. I do have something to discuss with you."
Nan Chaochao didn't want to listen just now.
Now she was filled with anger, and immediately raised her chin and said coldly, "Are you going to talk about that mistress? You want me to make room for her? You are truly heartless and ungrateful."
"Heartless and ungrateful? What does it mean to be affectionate and righteous? I have never let you down in these years. Qing'er and I are innocent. She is not my mistress."
"If it weren't for your fate, Qing'er wouldn't have ended up in that place. As a princess high above you, clothed in fine clothes and fed with delicious food, supported by thousands of people, how could you possibly understand the hardships of ordinary people?"
Nan Chaochao's face was pale and her whole body was trembling slightly. Even though she felt aggrieved, she was still unwilling to lower her head.
Meng Huaijin continued, "If the princess is willing to divorce, I will be grateful to you in my heart for the rest of my life."
"impossible!"
Nan Chaochao said excitedly, "I am your wife, no one can squeeze me out."
Back then, she fell in love with Meng Huaijin at first sight, but King Jing strongly disapproved of it. At that time, he had already found the top scholar for Nan Chaochao and had even consulted His Majesty in advance.
As soon as the day came, King Jing would take charge of preparing their wedding.
Unexpectedly, Nan Chaochao insisted on having Meng Huaijin, which made King Jing so angry that he scolded Princess Jing and Nan Chaochao together.
