Rebirth Of The Scum Girl (Female Dominant)

Shen Meng asked following her words, “What do you have that would make others covet it?”

It’s not that he looked down on his own wife, but apart from her beauty, no matter how hard he thought, he couldn’t think of anything else that would make people remember her.

If it’s treasure, after all, he’s just a prince. What treasure hasn’t he seen? Even if there were treasures he hadn’t seen, they should be sought after by palace princesses or the wealthiest people in the world.

Seeing Shen Meng smile discreetly, he continued, “No matter how I look at it, it seems like just a hero saving a beauty.”

Shen Meng smiled and said, “I can’t tell you for now what it is, husband. I can only say they have other motives. As for the hero saving the beauty, there are many rescuers in this world. I am a married woman, and the other party can completely use treasures to show gratitude.”

In the eyes of these high-ranking princes, whatever the commoners do for them is expected. On the road, there were no less than two soldiers and generals who sacrificed themselves to escort this prince, but this prince never had the intention of offering himself to anyone.

“Do you think the Third Prince is the same?”

He didn’t care much about the prince of the foreign country. After all, Shen Meng was already married and not a suitable marriage partner. Although the other party was not as reserved, he already had the heavy responsibility of a political marriage. It might be troublesome, but it wouldn’t cause too much interference.

It’s the Third Prince, who has recently been quiet. He instinctively felt that the other party was plotting something big. Even though they were having a happy time, it felt like a shadow was cast over them, making it hard to feel at ease.

Shen Meng hesitated for a moment, pondered for a while, and decided not to say the comforting words she had intended for Liang Jue: “Perhaps it’s because of something else.”

After observing for so long in the previous life, she really couldn’t figure out the other party’s other motives. After all, she had been dead for so long, and the Third Prince hadn’t shown any abnormal behavior.

Liang Jue felt uneasy in his heart, “Why is it that the prince of that small country has ulterior motives, while the Third Prince is interested in you?”

It’s understandable that he felt unfair. It’s just that the other person gave him too much sense of crisis, and Shen Meng’s attitude was extremely subtle.

Shen Meng didn’t want to say much more, so she vaguely evaded, “Didn’t you say before that he mistook me for someone else? Maybe that’s why.”

Liang Jue looked at her steadily, as if trying to see something from her face, “Since it’s a case of mistaken identity, it should be clarified with the person, so as not to cause any misunderstandings.”

Shen Meng asked him back, “Do you want me to explain, or do you want me to let him know?”

Liang Jue had a previous scandal with the Third Prince Xue Ning, which had a bad impact. Naturally, he didn’t want to explain. Even if Shen Meng was willing, as her husband, he wouldn’t agree.

As for those servants, let alone entering the prince’s mansion, even if they did, asking them not to speak nonsense about having improper thoughts about his mistress was unrealistic.

Liang Jue rubbed his temples with his index finger, feeling a headache coming on, “What you said is reasonable. There’s really no suitable explanation.”

Seeing him like this, Shen Meng sighed softly, “I didn’t want to say it, but since you care so much, I indeed once took care of a little beggar in the city of Yuncheng where my grandmother lived.”

Liang Jue raised his head in surprise, unable to sit still, stood up excitedly, and leaned forward to Shen Meng, “Say it again, I didn’t hear clearly just now.”

Once the words were out, it wasn’t easy to take them back. She patiently repeated, “I said, I indeed may know him.”

Liang Jue widened his eyes. In fact, he had vaguely guessed something, but he didn’t expect Shen Meng to admit it today.

His throat moved up and down, and his voice trembled a bit, “Can you say it again?”

Shen Meng had to explain, “You know about the Third Prince disappearing for a period of time when he was young, right?”

Liang Jue pondered, “My father told me about it. At that time, the people in the capital were in panic.”

Although the royal family deliberately blocked the news, it spread quickly among the upper circles, and later the common people also knew about it. Because no one knew who had kidnapped the Third Prince, rumors circulated that it was human traffickers.

Although he was a little older than the Third Prince, he was also a boy. During that time, his father took care of him very closely. Originally, he could go out often, but at that time, even his right to go out was deprived, and he could only stay at home to study.

“But wasn’t the Third Prince lost in the capital?”

“Since it was premeditated, the abducted person must have been taken away. At that time, I stayed in Yuncheng City for a while because of my father’s business. I happened to encounter a little beggar being bullied, so I took him in for a while.”

In fact, she found it quite miraculous. She considered herself a person without much sympathy, and she had never been sympathetic in her childhood.

The reason she raised the child for a year at that time was firstly because he looked very cute after cleaning up, and secondly, because her biological father died, she needed a companion to accompany her through those gloomy days.

The feeling of being needed and relied upon made her feel useful in this era. However, after arranging for someone to look for the beggar later, he was no longer there, and she gradually grew up.

With the heavy workload of studying and dealing with Shen Li, she had no time to reminisce about these messy things.

It sounded more like a storybook than reality. Who would casually save someone and turn out to be a prince or princess? “Are you sure it’s him?”

Shen Meng rubbed her slightly sore forehead, “I wasn’t sure at first, but the Third Prince mentioned a name that day.”

That name was too distant for her; she only realized it later. But even if she realized it later, she planned to use it to deal with the other party. After all, in her previous life, that was the Third Prince. She only divorced her husband because of him. In this life, she had no plans to change her husband.

Liang Jue still couldn’t quite understand her behavior, “If that’s the case, why didn’t you tell him at that time?”

Shen Meng looked at him, “Do you want me to tell him? If you want me to, I’ll find a time.”

Liang Jue immediately shook his head like a rattle drum, “No, don’t deliberately tell him!” Perhaps feeling that his reaction was a bit over the top, he quickly added, “It’s not that you can’t tell him, but it’s just that we missed the best opportunity before. It’s better to wait for a chance and let him investigate it himself.”

This was indeed a good reason, but when spoken by Liang Jue, it seemed somewhat evasive. But Shen Meng didn’t intend to argue with him about it.

There was a hint of seriousness in her tone, “Let’s not mention anything about the Third Prince from now on. I told you about this today because I hope you’ll have an idea in your heart.”

Liang Jue readily agreed, “I can promise you, but I hope you’ll agree to one condition from me.”

Shen Meng put her hand on her husband’s shoulder, half-forcing him to sit back in his chair, “You say what condition, but sit down and say it.”

Liang Jue took a deep breath, did a few deep breaths back and forth, and then said, “Before I mention this condition, let me ask again, how many people have you saved, whether male or female? I’m not in a hurry. You can take your time to think, and tell me when you’re sure.”

“Two, just two. One may be the little beggar of the Third Prince, and the other one, you know.”

“Are you sure?”

Shen Meng said, “I’m sure. You should know, you don’t have a particularly kind-hearted wife.”

“I know that. I have no other conditions, just one, that is, next time you encounter such a good deed of helping others, don’t do it, let me handle it.”

Shen Meng also agreed readily, “That’s completely fine.”

She wasn’t a particularly kind-hearted person to begin with. Saving two people meant bringing two big troubles. Three strikes and she didn’t want to have a third time.

“There’s one more thing!” They had decided to end the topic for today, but Shen Meng suddenly remembered something very important.

“In a few days, the delegation from that foreign country will be visiting the court.”

Liang Jue’s tone slightly lifted, “You mentioned this before. It’s scheduled for five days from now. Is there a problem?”

Shen Meng looked sincere, “I want to resolve the dispute before they enter the court. But the language spoken by that prince is not very fluent, and we don’t have special permission here. I can’t even find an interpreter.”

She paused for a few seconds and said the key point of today, “Tomorrow, I will go to the post station where that prince is staying. I heard that you are fluent in that language. I hope you can accompany me.”
