Chapter 120: Opportunity
It was almost midnight, and no one in the Ming family was sleeping.
There are so many people going to Baoling Temple today, of course, it is impossible for all of them to be detained in the government office.
Unrelated people were put back one by one.
But three members of the Ming family did not return.
The second master, the fourth master, Mingsheng.
The second master is the head of the long house, and the fourth master is the head of the second house. Now that the six masters are gone, Mingsheng is the only adult male who stays in Dongning besides them.
It is equivalent to the sudden absence of a man in the family, and the Ming family is panicked from top to bottom.
Ming Wei entered the main hall, and Mrs. Ming only had a slight smile on her face, so she let her rest.
Mingwei gave the second lady a look, and the two went to the next door to talk: "Is the second aunt worried about the second uncle?" ”
The second lady was depressed: "It's only your second uncle, even your fourth uncle and fourth brother have stayed, I'm afraid of ......"
Mingwei understood. What the second lady is worried about is the impact of losing the man on the family, not the personal safety of the second master.
She pondered and said, "Auntie, I happen to be in the same place with Yang Gongzi today, and I know some things......"
The second lady's eyes lit up and grabbed her hand: "Xiao Qi! What do you know? If you can help us through the crisis, my aunt will thank you for your kindness for the rest of her life! ”
Ming Wei said: "Aunt, to tell you the truth, the fourth uncle and the fourth brother are fine, and they will be sent home later." But the second uncle ......"
"How is your second uncle?"
Mingwei shook his head: "I may not be able to go home." ”
The second lady was stunned when she heard this, and she didn't move for a while.
After a long time, the second lady's eyes filled with tears: "My poor child! He grabbed Mingwei again and asked, "Is it that your third brother can't get out?" ”
If the second master is convicted, his child will have no chance to pursue his career.
Mingwei was silent.
The second lady understood, hid her face and cried twice, and couldn't help cursing: "I knew that he was going to kill my child, he only hated, and the blood relatives could not be separated!" When he treated his eldest sister like that, I knew that he was heartless! ”
Mingwei's eyes flashed, and she asked in a low voice: "Second aunt, what happened to the eldest sister back then?" ”
At this time, the second lady had nothing to hide, and said to her: "When the eldest sister went to the palace for a banquet, she was somehow seen by the son of the Li family. The eldest sister saw that he was rude, and reprimanded him twice, who knew that she was so worried about it, and then he was secretly mistaken by him......"
When the second lady mentioned this, she gritted her teeth with hatred: "The son of the Li family already has a wife, and he wants to ask the eldest sister to be his concubine!" He dreamed! It's just that the king of the county supports their family, but he can't help it. I can only marry your eldest sister far away...... Poor big sister! ”
Mingwei had already guessed, but he didn't know who the light eldest sister was. At this time, he sighed in his heart and asked, "The second uncle doesn't have anything to say?" ”
The second lady sneered: "He's just a boneless one!" Because the king of the county said yes, he really had the idea of letting the eldest sister be a concubine. What kind of character is the son of the Li family? Even if you marry a wife, your eldest sister can't look down on him! ”
For a mother, her children are the most precious. The eldest lady suffered such a great shame, no wonder the second lady hated the second master so much.
After the second lady's mood stabilized, Mingwei said slowly: "Second aunt, if you say to save the second uncle, I can't do it." However, there is a chance now, maybe I can save the third brother and the sixth brother, you ......"
The second lady raised her head suddenly, her eyes full of hope: "You say! If you can save them, the second aunt will make you a cow and a horse in this life and even in the next life! ”
Mingwei said euphemistically: "It's just that there is such an opportunity, whether it can be done or not, I dare not guarantee." I can't do anything about it, and my aunt has to beg others. ”
"If you have the chance, you can do it." How dare the second lady ask for too much, "Xiao Qi, how do you teach your aunt how to fight for this opportunity?" ”
Mingwei sighed: "Aunt can give up the second uncle?" ”
The second lady was stunned.
"You must have noticed that the second uncle did something behind your back. The current crisis of the Ming family is that these things done by the second uncle have been exposed. This matter is too implicated, and it will reach heaven, and no one will be able to save the second uncle. However, the only way to do this is to make meritorious contributions, and perhaps the rest of the people can be saved. ”
The second lady was stunned: "It's so serious?" ”
Mingwei nodded: "The second aunt should discuss with the grandmother, as I expected, the uncle and the fifth uncle in the capital can't escape the involvement, and the seizure of the post can be regarded as the emperor's grace." ”
The second lady shuddered: "What if we can't make meritorious service for our crimes?" ”
"The most serious consequence will be," Ming Wei said softly, "to destroy the family." ”
The second lady sat down in her chair and froze.
"Think about it, time is running out." Mingwei saluted her and returned to Yu Fangyuan.
Dover has been sent back.
Because of the order, Ah Xuan personally escorted her back.
The Ming family knew his identity, and any difference between inside and outside was temporarily put down, and he was allowed to drive straight in.
"What's wrong with Dofu?" Seeing her face distorted and bleeding from seven holes, Bingxin and Sujie were stunned.
Mingwei took the handkerchief, carefully wiped the blood off Duofu's face, and asked them to prepare a pen and paper, drew up a prescription and said, "Ask someone to grab the medicine." ”
The two girls took the prescription in a daze, and said in their hearts, when will Miss know how to heal?
The doctor only understands a little, and this prescription is used to restrain evil spirits.
"Mama is frightened today?"
Listening to her question, Bingxin hurriedly said: "Miss, don't worry, Mama is fine, those officers and soldiers are not disturbing." ”
Mingwei nodded: "Duofu was injured today to protect me." You find two attentive girls to take care of Duofu. Wipe her body and feed medicine every day, don't be sloppy, she may be in a coma for several days. ”
Su Jie agreed: "Bingxin and I take turns to star, so they don't dare to slack off." ”
These two maids are stable and reliable, and they give them Duofu, and Mingwei is very relieved.
She went back to the house to freshen up and change her clothes, but she did not fall asleep immediately, and went to the mourning hall alone with the lantern.
Seeing a lone lamp flickering from a distance, the old man in the mourning hall was almost frightened. It wasn't until she approached that a heart fell to the ground: "Miss Seven, are you still coming to see the third lady so late?" ”
Mingwei replied vaguely and was about to enter.
The old man hurriedly said: "Miss Seven, it's so late, you might as well come back tomorrow." ”
Mingwei turned her head to look at him.
The old man was afraid that she would misunderstand that she was not satisfied, so he explained: "The fourth master came during the day, saying that he dreamed that the third master wanted to see the third lady...... The little one is afraid that the yin in the house will hurt your body. ”
Ming narrowed his eyes slightly: "You said, the fourth master has been here during the day?" ”
"Yes! The little one listened to the fourth master crying so sadly, it seems that it is really the third master who has returned to his soul......"
Mingwei's face was expressionless.
"Although it is a family, there is a difference between yin and yang. Miss Seven, you are young and weak, so it's better not to touch the yin qi......"
The old man babbled, and Mingwei's thoughts had already drifted away.
There are some things that she didn't pay attention to, but now she finally knows.
