"Lord Yu, King Jing and the side concubine ask to meet." The next person entered the hall to make a report.

"Nope!" Li Xun was upset when he heard King Jing, although he knew that Mei Qingqian hated that Tang Xun very much, and Mei Qingqian also told him that it was not her who entered King Jing's Mansion at the beginning, but he was bored when he thought of Tang Xun, and he had never felt that this person was so annoying before.

Mei Qingqian frowned, what is this Tang Xun doing again?

"Side concubine?" She suddenly got to the point.

The subordinate said cautiously: "Listen to the meaning of King Jing's side concubine, you are sisters with the princess." ”

Mei Qingqian chuckled lightly and looked at Li Xun, "Let them come in, my cousin should be on top and want to show off, let's give others a chance." ”

She thanked her and sat down in her chair.

Lord Zhou sighed secretly, why did this come about?

Speaking of which, he didn't like Du Kang very much over the years, but his mother had to read the kindness of the Du family to protect Du Kang, and he couldn't bear his mother's anger.

Fortunately, Du Kang has a good daughter-in-law who understands righteousness and is knowledgeable, and this daughter-in-law was chosen by Du Kang's father and mother back then, and her vision is really good.

Du Kang is lustful, and after making some money, he is a little floating, if he is not persuaded by his wife, I am afraid that he will make far more mistakes than these.

Mei Qingqian looked at all this, and couldn't help but spit out a few mouthfuls in her heart, her wife was going to give birth to him with a big belly, and he was still looking for an outer room outside, so he still wanted to be embarrassed?

Du Kang's wife is also yes, since it's all like this, what do you care about him? It's better to let him go into exile, take care of the family business with the children, and don't have to be angry with men, wouldn't it be more leisurely?

"Mrs. Du, this official understands your difficulties, but the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, Du Kang can't reduce his responsibility because of your intercession, otherwise how can this official serve the public? How to make the word justice worthy? Seeing that her mood had calmed down, Lord Zhou said in a slower tone.

Mrs. Du's brows furrowed, "The woman knows that she shouldn't make such a request, and she also knows that she should be punished for making mistakes, but there are so many mouths in the family, and the business is taken care of by the husband, once he is convicted, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the Du family to survive." ”

Du Kang heard this and hurriedly said: "I beg the adults to be light, just pity my soon-to-be born child, I am afraid that their mother and son will not be able to survive in the future." ”

The onlookers looked at Mrs. Du's stomach and were a little sympathetic.

Mei Qingqian's brows furrowed more and more, and she suddenly opened her mouth and said loudly: "Lord Qiqi, the women dare to say a few more words. ”

Master Zhou looked at her, "Say it." ”

This time, he was much calmer in the face of Mei Qingqian, and he didn't have to protect Du Kang, so he wouldn't look at Mei Qingqian's displeasure.

"I think it is impossible for the Du family to do business by Du Yuanwai himself, otherwise Du Yuanwai is very busy, how can he have time to rob the woman of the good family?" Mei Qingqian said word by word very clearly, which made many people wake up, yes, how could Du Kang be willing to do it himself?

"As long as Du Yuanwai hands over the following important stewards to Mrs. Du for use, even if he is convicted and punished, how the business should run can still be as usual, and the henchmen who can be selected by Du Yuanwai will not drop the chain at this time."

Mei Qingqian looked at Mrs. Du, "I see that Mrs. Du speaks clearly and understands righteousness, and if I think I can manage the family well, Lord Du can also accept the punishment with peace of mind." ”

"You woman is so vicious, do you have to put me to death?" Du Kang scolded angrily.

Mei Qing glanced at him lightly, "Du Yuanwai still reflects on himself first, his wife is pregnant with Liujia and is about to give birth, but you are looking for an outer room outside, or forcing the other party, don't you feel ashamed that you killed two women at once?" ”

"You ......"

Lord Zhou was shocked and interrupted Du Kang's words, "Mei's words are reasonable, Du Kang, you will hand over the steward to your wife later, and the official believes that she can help you take care of the family property." In the case of you coaxing and detaining He Shuhuan, this official sentenced him to two years of exile outside the border, do you have any objections? ”

Mei Qingqian saw that as soon as "two years" came out, Mrs. Du's eyes had a hint of relief, I don't know if she felt that two years was too short, or because Du Kang was exiled.

She guessed the latter, because she didn't want the woman to always treat herself as an accessory, and her husband would have to forgive unconditionally for anything wrong.

Du Kang's face changed greatly, "Two years...... Adults spare their lives, but the little ones will die outside the gates! ”

"So this official hopes that you will remember the lesson, and know what to do and what not to do in the future, if you make a mistake again, I'm afraid it won't be as simple as exile outside the border, it may be a big crime to kill your head." Master Zhou stood up with a straight face, "Retreat!" ”

He turned around, looked up and saw the plaque on his head that was "fair and honest", and breathed a heavy sigh of relief in his heart, and his back straightened.

Recalling the previous time, he compromised with his mother and turned a blind eye to Du Kang's evil deeds, then he was not worthy of the words "fair and honest".

At this moment, Lord Zhou reremembered his revenge when he was studying and gaining fame, he wanted to be an official and make decisions for the people and contribute to the court, and because of his mother's forced request before, he turned a blind eye to Du Kang, and his errand was not as dedicated as he was in the early years, and he lost the passionate ambition of his youth.

At this moment, he re-examined himself, no, he was only in his thirties, it was the rising period of his career, and he couldn't just live his life.

After retreating, Du Kang was escorted down, and Mrs. Du cried and chased after her, but Mei Qingqian felt that her eyes were more relaxed.

"Let's go, I finally understand." She went and took He Shuhuan's hand and walked out.

He Shuhuan breathed a heavy sigh of relief, "Don't worry about it, you can go home." ”

Zheng Ya had a bitter face, "Sister Huan, you want to abandon me so soon, it's too ruthless." ”

"Haha, I'm homesick, let's meet in my shop. Business has been delayed in the past few days, so distressed. He Shuhuan said with a smile.

The three of them walked out with a smile, and suddenly, Mrs. Du's painful voice came from behind, "Hurry, send me home......

The maid cried out urgently, "Madam, are you going to give birth?" ”

Mrs. Du's face turned a little pale, "The amniotic water is broken." ”

Mei Qingqian's sense of smell is sensitive, and she couldn't help but look back, Mrs. Du This is the amniotic water is broken, if you don't give birth in time, the child is likely to be suffocated by lack of oxygen.

"Find something to carry her, don't let her go on her own." She couldn't help but open her mouth.

"Thank you...... Thank. Mrs. Du began to feel pain, but she thanked her politely.

Zheng Ya was a little nervous, walked up to Mei Qingqian's side and asked, "Sister Qianqian, are we going to help?" ”

There was no doctor nearby, Mei Qingqian felt that she was just leaving, her conscience was a little uneasy, and it was Du Kang who had a grudge against them, not his wife.

Speaking of which, Mrs. Du is also pitiful, she is about to give birth, and her husband still wants to find an outer room, although she may have brought some of her own purposes, but she is not here to harm He Shuhuan.
