Mrs. Li clenched her fists, looked at her daughter unbearably, and said coldly: "Do you think that what happened to the Mei family today is Lu Yunhong's revenge?" Mei Min raised her head, thinking otherwise?
Mrs. Li said: "That day when you plotted against Lu Yunhong, I went to the Lu family to apologize. Mrs. Lu already told me everything."
"But because you were hit and couldn't accept the stupid things you did for a while, you just asked me to come back and discipline you properly without making any noise."
"I wanted to use this matter to scare you, but I didn't know that you didn't care at all. I knew it would be in vain, so I didn't mention it."
Mei Min felt as if her hair suddenly exploded and said in disbelief: "Mom, you lied. You actually lied for Lu Yunhong."
Mrs. Li became angry and said: "You are so outrageous, listen to what you are saying?"
"Don't you want to know who plotted against you?"
"Okay, then let me tell you, it's Gao Xian!"
Mei Min's eyes widened in shock. Before she could refute, she heard her mother continue: "Because you humiliated Gao Xian wantonly, so that he became angry and collaborated with Li Jin to completely smooth out your pride and make you unable to do so."
Will you marry him if you don’t agree?”
"Don't you understand yet? All of this is because you speak unabashedly, are self-righteous, humiliate others, and trample on others, which is why you have the bad consequences today."
"Today, you actually want to find Lu Yunhong to take the blame. Do you know that if Lu Yunhong really wants to deal with our Mei family, not only you, but also your father and I will not be able to escape."
"And today, it is even more impossible for him to come to the door of our Mei family and show affection and reason, just to retain your father."
"This is what I have said today, and the love between you and me as mother and daughter is also here. I hope you will understand in the future that not everyone in this world will tolerate you infinitely, pamper you, and protect you, even your biological parents.
, and absolutely impossible.”
Seeing Mei Min who was stunned and completely lost her mind, Mei Chengwang's heart tugged.
But what followed was endless disappointment and sighs.
At this moment, Mrs. Li stepped forward and took his arm, saying softly: "Let's go and go out for a walk."
Mei Chengwang looked at his exhausted wife, patted her hand and said, "Okay."
Well, who wouldn't suffer some setbacks? It's just that they have reached this age and know that some things will not always be so bad. As long as they persist and persevere, it will pass.
It's just that her daughter is still young, and she doesn't seem to understand that a momentary misstep is nothing. As long as she can change her ways, she will have a long life in the future, so why should she stop at such a flowery age?
He finally couldn't bear it and turned around to his daughter: "Even if Lu Yunhong takes revenge on you, don't you deserve it? When you plot against others, have you ever thought that others will plot against you?"
"You've been evil from the beginning, why do you have the nerve to call others evil?"
"Xiao Min, you were indignant when your father was tricked by the late emperor. But the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty didn't know that dad was tricked?"
"Otherwise... how did you get the position of Grand Master of my father? Why are everyone speechless, even Grand Master Wang Wenbai, succumbing to my father?"
"That's because they know that the late emperor set up the situation for the sake of the current emperor. And the emperor invited me to the court to be kind to the courtiers, to stabilize the people's hearts, and to think about the world."
After Mei Chengwang finished speaking, he did not look back. He held his wife's hand and walked out step by step. It was as if he was walking out of the family affection and concern as a father that had trapped him for so many years.
In fact, the moment Mei Chengwang crossed the threshold, it was not that he didn't want to ask his wife whether she had lied for Lu Yunhong? Did Lu Yunhong's handwriting play a role in her daughter's condition?
But after he thought about it carefully, he felt that it didn't matter anymore. First, as revenge, Lu Yunhong was merciful to his daughter. Second, there was nothing wrong with his wife wanting to stay in the capital. He knew that his wife was a good person.
As a person, she walks steadily step by step from low to high. But from high to low, she has never walked through it before, so it is normal to be worried and scared.
Moreover, when people live to a certain age, they must first understand that everyone must be responsible for what they have done, whether it is him or his daughter, it is the same.
The street outside is cool, but not deserted.
It's probably because the Chinese New Year is coming soon.
Many neighbors looked at him from a distance and wanted to catch up with him and say hello.
Everyone called out with emotion: "Old Master."
Then he warned with regret: "Old Master, you must take care of yourself!"
At this moment, Mei Chengwang felt that he was old, but he was also relieved.
When people get old, they have to obey their old age. But from the regretful tone of everyone, he knew that he could do something more, that is, seriously consider what Lu Yunhong said about opening another Imperial College and cultivate many good and strong seedlings.
Do your best for Dayan.
…
Upstairs in Juxian, Pei Shan was sipping tea and looking at Ji Xiangxue who was wiping sweat across from him, he finally showed a satisfied look.
Suddenly, Xu Xiao called his bluff to scare him.
However, Pei Shan remained unmoved.
Xu Xiao felt that it was so boring, so he put down the cake and said: "How much noise did your master create in the court? He led the ministers and officials to turn the current Imperial College into the North Palace, and also built a large Imperial College.
, call it Nansuo. When it is completed, please invite the old master to serve as the Nansuo Imperial Academy's wine offering."
"Not only that, because he was worried about depleting the national treasury, he also took the initiative to donate ten years' rent of all the shops on Zhuangyuan Street. Now all the officials were upset."
"Jianguo Zijian will be founded. Will the emperor have no money? Will Dayan have no money? What will he donate?"
"It's okay now. The eldest princess's palace donated 20,000 taels, the Ji family donated 10,000 taels, and the Duke Dingguo's palace donated 5,000 taels..."
“While other aristocratic families complained, they also asked what is the appropriate minimum donation?”
"Hahahaha, even my old grandmother donated two thousand taels of her private house. She really cooked dumplings under water for the emperor and served them all in one pot. Do you think it's funny or not?"
Pei Shan had no expression on his face: "Get out of the way, you're blocking me!"
Xu Xiao: "..."?
Xu Xiao looked closely and found that it was Ji Xiangxue who seemed to be asking for help. He looked very anxious, nervous, sweating, and guilty.
He suddenly said suspiciously: "Didn't you say that you would catch the suspect after he released him privately? Then what are you doing now?"
Pei Shandao: "I'm waiting for him to raise money, and then liquidate it after he has raised it. All he has raised now are IOUs, and with the witnesses and physical evidence, he can't escape."
The corner of Xu Xiao's mouth twitched and asked: "Does your master just care about you?"
Pei Shan turned around and said seriously: "Why don't you care? He came up with this idea for me. How great! I never thought it could be like this!"
"Now even if Ji Xiangxue is acquitted, their family's property cannot be saved. And I heard that he is very stingy. The family's sacrificial fields were all bought by Ji Xiangxue. In other words, even if he returns to the countryside in the end
Farming, that kind of land belongs to Ji Xiang. Ji Xiang is helping his own brother, and it’s hard for outsiders to say anything?"
Xu Xiao: “…”??
It turns out that "green comes from blue and is better than blue", is this the way to say it?
This was the first time he saw it and he was taught a lesson!
