Chapter Twenty-Four: Madame May's Secret
After Mrs. Mei left, Mei Yanluo briefly disposed of the tombstone of the second lady, put the tribute prepared for the second lady, and burned some paper money for the second lady.
Mei Yanluo stood up and bowed in front of the second lady's monument.
"Don't worry, I will definitely find the person who killed you and let her get the price she deserves."
Mei Yanluo whispered this in front of the second lady's tombstone.
Sitting in the carriage, Mei Yanluo returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion and heard some subordinates talking.
"I don't know where Mrs. Mei went today, and when she comes back, she won't be able to give up."
"I heard that I went to see the second lady, but I think Mrs. Mei handled the aftermath for the second lady."
I didn't expect Mrs. Mei to be such a person who values love and righteousness, she must be too nostalgic.
In a blink of an eye, Mei Yanluo walked in from outside, and the subordinates who were talking quietly suddenly stopped talking, after all, the second lady was Mei Yanluo's biological mother, and she was afraid that Mei Yanluo would be sad, so the subordinates continued to do the work at hand.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Mei returned home, and she still didn't slow down, she must have a ghost in her heart.
Mei Yanluo walked to her room, but as soon as she entered the courtyard, she saw the housekeeper waiting there.
"Second Miss, my lord is invited." When the housekeeper saw Mei Yanluo coming back, he immediately greeted him and said.
Mei Yanluo followed the housekeeper to the study and saw Prime Minister Mei Cheng facing back, as if thinking about something.
"Father." Mei Yanluo screamed softly.
Prime Minister Mei turned his head when he heard the voice, and his face was even older than before.
"Yan Luo, come and sit." Prime Minister Mei's voice was a little hoarse.
Prime Minister Mei Cheng said that he also sat on a chair by himself, and patted the chair next to him with his hand, motioning for Mei Yanluo to sit there.
Looking at Prime Minister Mei Cheng's current appearance, Mei Yanluo always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't say it, so she had to wait and see what happened.
"I wonder what the father calls his daughter?" Mei Yanluo sat down and asked.
But when Mei Yanluo asked, she felt that Prime Minister Mei Cheng's thoughts were not here.
"You're going to see your mother today?"
Prime Minister Mei was pulled back to his senses by Mei Yanluo's words and asked.
Why did Prime Minister Mei suddenly ask about this, I couldn't help Mei Yanluo think about it, and Prime Minister Mei suddenly held Mei Yanluo's shoulder very excitedly.
"Yan Luo, can you tell your father where your mother is buried?"
Prime Minister Mei Cheng's voice was urgent, and Mei Yanluo's shoulder was also a little painful.
Could it be that Prime Minister Mei didn't know where the second lady was buried, and what happened to Mrs. Mei and the second lady before.
And what is unspeakable about Prime Minister Mei, he doesn't even have the right to know where his wife is buried, so he has to ask himself.
There was an expectant look in Prime Minister Mei's slightly cloudy eyes, and it was the first time that Mei Yanluo had observed Prime Minister Mei so closely.
The wings turned white at some point, Mei Yanluo looked at Prime Minister Mei in front of her, and her father died on the battlefield before he had time to take a second look.
Anyway, Prime Minister Mei can still know the burial place of the second lady through her, and who should she ask about the burial place of her Yang family.
Mei Yanluo's eyes gradually drooped, and Mei Cheng saw that Mei Yanluo had not spoken, and now she looked like she didn't want to speak.
Thinking that Mei Yanluo didn't want to tell him where the second lady was, he hurriedly said.
"Yan Luo, I know that I didn't take good care of your mother and daughter, so I caused this incident, you believe in your father, I will definitely repay you twice in the future."
Listening to Mei Cheng's belief in the promise, Mei Yanluo couldn't help sneering in her heart, what she heard the most was the promise.
Long Yu's promise came to her mind one by one, but the promise was useless except to give some unattainable expectations.
But Mei Yanluo still told the place where the second wife of Prime Minister Mei was buried, she didn't need Prime Minister Mei's promise, she just felt that Prime Minister Mei was also like a victim.
When Mei Yanluo came out of the study, she vaguely heard Prime Minister Mei instructing the housekeeper to immediately prepare a carriage and horse to go to the burial place of the second lady.
It seems that Mei Cheng is still concerned about the second lady, but why did things turn out like that.
It was already evening when Mei Yanluo returned to the room, and Zhu Ling also came in with dinner.
After a few simple bites, Mei Yanluo asked Zhu Ling to take the food away.
Mei Yanluo told Zhu Ling not to disturb her tomorrow morning, and then pretended to go to rest.
When she entered the half-watch, Mei Yanluo changed into her night clothes and came to Mrs. Mei's courtyard with light work.
According to the order of the houses in Mrs. Mei's courtyard, Mei Yanluo found the house where the second lady lived before her death.
Upon entering, the room was filled with nothing but a cramped bed and a wardrobe that could no longer be worn.
I didn't expect that a dignified second lady in the Prime Minister's Mansion didn't have a good life.
When I opened the closet door, it was so old that it almost fell off, and there was nothing left in the closet except for some worn-out clothes.
I closed the closet door and searched many other places, and finally found a few pieces of paper under the shabby bed, on which I recorded the events of the day.
Mei Yanluo looked at what was written on the paper, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, it turned out that Prime Minister Mei had a secret relationship with the second lady first, and there was no Mrs. Mei in her heart at all.
Then it's no wonder that Mrs. Mei has been targeting the second lady, after all, with Mrs. Mei's character, how can she get what she can't get.
Therefore, Mrs. Mei told Prime Minister Mei that only if she married her, the second lady would have a reason to marry into the Mei family together.
Otherwise, with the humble status of the second lady, how could Prime Minister Mei Cheng, such a good-faced person, marry directly.
But it was precisely because Mei Cheng liked the second lady too much that he caused this catastrophe.
Mei Yanluo also seemed to understand in an instant why Mrs. Mei didn't tell Prime Minister Mei where the second lady was buried.
Leaned back casually, but never wanted to touch an object, and the sound from the room made the night watchman vigilant.
When the person pushed the door open, Mei Yanluo had already jumped out of the window and hid in a tree.
Mrs. May has been haunted by the incident in the mass grave, and she has not slept until now.
Hearing some movement outside, he asked, "What happened?"
"Mrs. Hui, there was some movement in the room where the second lady lived just now, I thought someone had entered, but I didn't find anything just now." The people outside report this.
Hearing this, Mrs. May was shocked and shouted, "That woman is coming to me."
Mrs. May shouted with her hand, as if someone was approaching her.
When the subordinates saw this, they thought that Mrs. Mei was sick, and immediately called the doctor.
Several subordinates pressed Mrs. Mei and asked the doctor to take the pulse, but the doctor shook his head and just prescribed a few tranquilizing medicines for Mrs. Mei to drink.
After drinking the medicine, Mrs. May gradually began to fall asleep, and the people saw that Mrs. May was fine, so they retreated.
Mei Yanluo poked her head out of the tree, and when she saw Mrs. Mei's house where everyone had left, she sneaked in.
If Prime Minister Mei and the second lady had too deep a relationship before, Mrs. Mei would be so jealous that she would have said it in the past.
However, since the second lady married into the Mei family, the second lady has lived a life that is not even as good as her subordinates every day, why did Mrs. Mei take the life of the second lady.
There must have been something she hadn't discovered, and the secret was hidden in Madame May's room.
Nie Sheng walked into the house, and Mei Yanluo carefully rummaged through it.
Suddenly, there seemed to be movement on Mrs. Mei's side, and Mei Yanluo carefully hid and listened to Mrs. Mei's muttering.
"I'll give you all the letters."
Letters, what letters, could it be that Mrs. May has the letters of these two ladies in her hands.
Mei Yanluo tried this and asked, "Where is the letter?"
"It's in the closet, I'll give you back the letter, don't look for me in the future." There was a tremor in Madame May's voice.
"Hmm." Mei Yanluo agreed, turned around and went to the cabinet to look for the letter.
Xu heard the sound of promise, and Mrs. Mei's breathing gradually became smoother, and she finally fell asleep.
Mei Yanluo took out the letters in the cabinet, and it was a very thick pile, half of which was written by the second lady and half by Prime Minister Mei.
This time, she finally knew why Mrs. Mei did such a miserable act, and Xu found the letter that day, so she could no longer keep the second lady.
But in the end, I did something wrong, and now I will still be haunted by my dreams.
Mei Yanluo looked at the sleeping Mrs. Mei, and finally closed the cabinet and took the letter away.
The next morning, when Mrs. May woke up, as if she remembered something, she immediately called her servant.
"Quick, go see if there's any letters in that closet?" Mrs. May pointed to the cabinet and commanded.
The servant opened the cabinet and rummaged for a long time but did not find the letter that Mrs. May wanted.
Seeing the subordinate shaking his head, Mrs. May sat on the bed and muttered over and over again.
"She came, she came."
Seeing Mrs. Mei who was so heartbroken, the subordinates were at a loss, so they had to call Mei Yanying over first to see if the situation would improve.
Mei Yanying sat on the side of Mrs. Mei's bed and asked anxiously, "Mother, what's wrong with you?"
As soon as she received the news, Mei Yanying rushed over, she only knew that her mother and Mei Yanluo went out yesterday and came back.
Seeing that Mrs. Mei ignored herself, Mei Yanying continued: "Is it that little slut again, mother, when are you going to get rid of this trouble?"
When Mrs. Mei heard that Mei Yanying was going to get rid of Mei Yanluo, she remembered everything that happened yesterday, and hurriedly said, "No, that little slut can't die."
Mei Yanying was puzzled for a while, her mother was ruthless to the extreme, how could she let go of that little slut now.
However, when the next person went to call himself, he said that Mrs. Mei had been muttering to the second lady yesterday, and asked the second lady not to come.
Could it be that yesterday my mother went to the place where the second lady was buried and fell ill, if this is the case, she must find the best mage for her mother.
"Mother, what's going on?" Mei Yanying asked softly.
Now it's imperative to know what happened last night.
"Yesterday, the slut came and took the letter." Mrs. May said, her hand trembling as she pointed to the cabinet.
How could a dead person come out to pick up the cabinet, Mei Yanying never believed in these ghost and god doctrines.
suddenly thought that Mei Yanluo's little slut seemed to know martial arts, and it seemed that the little slut was pretending to be a ghost again.
Mother's current appearance is all caused by Mei Yanluo's little slut, and she must get rid of this little slut.
Mei Yanying hugged Mrs. Mei and comforted her softly.
This time she can't spare this little slut, it's no longer as simple as framing, she wants to let this little slut die and disappear into this world forever.
