Two hundred and fifty-seven: The deceased
Before the words fell, the eunuch came back just now, bent down and said to Mrs. Wei that she had some errands that were not finished, and now she had to go over first, and the king of Linjiang was seeing the cabinet ministers discussing political affairs, and she was afraid that she would not be able to see them so early, so let her wait here a little longer.
Mrs. Wei agreed, glanced at him, and knew that things might not be so simple.
These people looked at her as if they were looking at prisoners, but it wasn't like a simple guard, she was anxious to see that King Linjiang knew the news of Wei An, but she still swallowed her dissatisfaction, and sat down quietly----- if someone really wanted to look for her, it would always be found before she met King Linjiang, and it was not her who should be anxious.
The room was quiet for a while, and Mrs. Wei could hear the sound of herself drinking tea, and just looked up at the window, and couldn't help but be stunned.
She seemed to be dazzled, otherwise, why would she actually see the little eunuch that the Ming family brought back from the northwest back then?!
At that time, the Ming family guarded Yunnan, and one day the boss of the Ming family brought back a small eunuch from the northwest, saying that the family was too poor to get along, so he was castrated by his parents and wanted to be sent to the palace to serve, but unfortunately they didn't have that skill, the technology was not good, and they made people half dead, they were afraid of trouble, so they threw people in the wild and left them alone, so that the child was almost frozen to death.
It was the boss of the Ming family who happened to pass by, and when he saw that he was pitiful, he rescued the person.
Because he has been purified, there is no need to shy away from it, and he is of the same age, when he was young, the children of the Wei family played very close to him.
But he must have died in that fire
Old Lady Wei hurriedly walked two steps, and when she saw the old eunuch coughing and ordering the people below to do something, her brows furrowed more and more, and finally she didn't hold back, and shouted her former name: "Liu Cheng!" ”
The name Liu Cheng was given to him by the boss of the Ming family, saying that he hoped that no matter what happened in the future, he would always grow up decently
Old Mrs. Wei was full of hope and doubts, and when she saw that the old eunuch suddenly turned around, she sighed in her heart, she was not mistaken, it was really Liu Cheng
Why will Liu become in the palace?! When the Ming family had an accident, it was clearly said that there was no one left, and at that time, the Ming family was escorted to Beijing in the list, and Mrs. Wei saw Liu Cheng's name, and she confirmed that she would never be mistaken
And Liu Cheng didn't die, not only did he not die, he was still in the palace!
Mrs. Wei walked a few steps quickly, and when she saw Liu Cheng walking quickly, she couldn't help but raise her voice and shouted again: "Liu Cheng!" It's me! ”
Everyone looked at the two of them in amazement, not knowing what was going on, Mrs. Wei didn't care about this, at that moment, she seemed to have touched the edge of something, and couldn't help but follow a few steps and shouted again.
Liu Cheng finally stopped, turned his head with a hesitant expression, but didn't dare to look at Mrs. Wei, hung his head for a while before waving his hand to those little inner eunuchs and letting them go down.
He hesitated and slowly walked in from outside, looked at Mrs. Wei, and knelt down with a puff.
Old Mrs. Wei took a step back, her mind was still a little confused, and she didn't know why the person who should have died a long time ago was still alive and still in the palace.
What's going on? Could it be that there is something else hidden in this? Mrs. Wei is not a fool, seeing Liu Cheng knelt down without saying a word, she knew that things were not simple, she was pale, and only closed her eyes and asked him halfway: "Why are you still alive?" ”
Didn't it mean that all the people died? Doesn't it mean that no one in the family survived, except for one Ming Jing who survived because he was too lucky, and everyone else died? Why is Liu Cheng still alive?
Was he already in the palace? So why hasn't he heard from him for so many years? Looking at his appearance, he should also be a good eunuch, but why did she never find out about his existence before?
Mrs. Wei's mind was very messy, she only felt that there were buzzing mosquitoes everywhere, and finally gave up thinking, laughed, and said to Liu Cheng: "I don't want to think about it, you tell me the truth, why?" ”
Why are you still alive, but you have never come to the Wei family for so many years? Do you know that Mingjing is still alive? Why are you in the palace?
Liu Cheng straightened up, he was already very old, his gray hair was tied with a crown at the back of his head, and the folds on his face were piled together, he shouted the old lady Wei's former name, and kowtowed and said, "It's me who I'm sorry for the eldest lady, it's that I'm sorry for the eldest lady."
The eldest lady was the former Empress of Ming, and when she was at home in the past, everyone called her that, and those days were a long time ago.
Mrs. Wei felt like a world away, and smiled bitterly, her face was full of the vicissitudes of the world: "What do you have that can't stand us?" ”
In fact, she guessed that there must be something wrong with making Liu Cheng beg for mercy so tremblingly, and from the moment he appeared, Mrs. Wei knew that something was going to happen.
But what happened back then was a scar engraved in her heart, when this scar was not healed, no matter when she mentioned it, she always felt that the wound inside was aching faintly, ready to fester, Mrs. Wei supported her headache and looked at Liu Cheng and shook her head slowly: "Don't tell me this, what happened, just tell me directly, if you really still have the slightest affection and guilt for us, please tell me what happened back then." ”
She didn't want to know anything else, she just wanted to ask what happened to her parents and brothers, her relatives, what happened that night, why all the people in the Ming family died, except for one Ming Jing, but one Liu Cheng survived.
Liu Cheng snorted for a long time, as if his heart was so weak that he couldn't say a word.
Mrs. Wei smiled bitterly and looked at Liu Cheng, who was kneeling on the ground and lying silent: "Okay, for the sake of the past, please give me a good time, we asked ourselves that we were good to you back then, since you are alive, why don't you even have any news?" Why don't you send me a letter? Do you know how miserable my sister died, do you know?"
Liu Chengdu knew that his hands trembled slightly, and he pinched his fingernails into the flesh in pain without knowing it, and seeing that Mrs. Wei was about to fall, he hurriedly got up to support her, and was silent for a moment before saying, "I am I have no face to see you again." ”
