The reason why Mrs. Su reacted like this is because the "death-free gold medal" is different from the "death-free iron coupon", the iron coupon is exchanged for the master's military exploits, although there are ten opportunities to avoid death, but it cannot be exempted. In other words, the capital crime can be avoided and the living crime cannot be escaped, and the head is not cut off, but also the tattoo is used for the army. And the "Gold Medal for Avoiding Death" has three chances of pardon, not only can it be exempted from capital crimes, but even living crimes will not be suffered, and no family property will be confiscated! Its ease of use is comparable to the amnesty of the new emperor when he ascended the throne.

Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, dozens of founding heroes have received iron coupons to avoid death, but the emperor has only sent out three gold medals. Moreover, the reason why Mrs. Su cherishes the Meng family's death-free gold medal so much is because after the battle of Qingzhou, the emperor praised the Meng family's eleven tigers and gave them glory, which was exchanged for the lives of several young generals such as Meng Xuan and Meng Ying, and it was also Mrs. Su's greatest pride as a mother. On the day she got the gold medal, Mrs. Su put her hands in the secret room, took the incense burner and offered fresh fruits, three incense sticks in the morning, noon and evening, and seeing the gold medal was like seeing her son.

Now that I heard that the descendants of the cold-blooded murderous doctor Luo Maitong actually used the bad deeds of their ancestors as a threat in an attempt to take away her "son", Mrs. Su was so angry that she almost didn't ascend to heaven, and said tremblingly: "Die, let them die...... What nonsense are you talking about with them? Let Xiao Er Xiao Wu kill the ambitions of those wolves! ”

Meng Shan hugged Mrs. Su tightly with one arm, and sighed: "Madame, don't worry, listen to me first, there is another reason for this, and it was also told to me by Na Luo Chuan Gu - it turns out that Xiao Qi's daughter-in-law, the emperor canonized the lord of Qingning, was originally his niece, named 'He Angelica', and she was a girl raised by the Luo family like a granddaughter. In other words, the Luo family in Yangzhou was originally our in-laws. ”

"In-laws? What Angelica? Mrs. Su frowned, but refused to believe it, "Of course, I know that the seventh daughter-in-law is not the county lord of the in-laws, but Ying'er said that he knows the origin of the county lord of Qingning very well, and said that she is the niece of the Lu family in the capital, and she has never mentioned anything else, why did a Luo family come out again?" ”

Meng Shan guessed: "The Lu family and the Luo family, these two voices are very similar, probably because Ying'er was drunk and said the wrong thing." ”

Mrs. Su pushed him: "You have a big tongue!" ”

"Anyway, Luo Chuangu really didn't lie," Meng Shan said in a deep voice, "You played cards this afternoon, I quietly took a look in the dark, that little girl, I saw it in Luo Mansion a few years ago." At that time, Xiao Qi suddenly changed his temper and was unwilling to go back to Shanhaiguan with me, saying that he wanted to stay in Yangzhou to study, I didn't believe that he was willing to study separately, so I followed him a few times, only to find out that he was tripped in Luofu because of the little girl. ”

"How can it be!" Mrs. Su hissed, "In vain, I thought that girl was good, but I didn't expect it to be a fox!" I'm only a few years old to seduce the gentlemen and confuse my little seven! ”

Meng Shan remembered that his son entrusted him to take care of his daughter-in-law before leaving, and he knew that he had lost his words, so he hurriedly remedied: "Oh, the matter is purple, that little girl is young and young, and her medical skills are top-notch, at that time, Xiao Qi practiced and went crazy, and he didn't dare to tell me, so he stayed in Luofu and asked the little girl to treat her injuries." His daughter-in-law is his savior! And Ying'er said that in the Qingzhou line, the daughter-in-law contributed the most, which is also the reason why the Luo family proposed to avoid death - when the emperor issued a decree, the gold medal came along with the holy decree praising the county lord of Qingning, and the Luo family decided that this gold medal belonged to their niece. I was afraid that they would come to the door to pester Xiao Qi's daughter-in-law, and she didn't know how to deal with it, so I ordered her to be grounded and no one was allowed to visit. ”

"I see," Mrs. Su's anger came and went quickly, "In this case, the Meng family can do Luo Chuangu a favor and take out the part of the grain that has entered the official, and if it is insufficient, we can make up for it." But Luo Chuanwu wants a death-free gold medal or a death-free iron ticket, don't talk about it! Once you save the thieves in Huzhou, you will be in danger of the Meng family, for the sake of such a group of people, it is really not worth it. ”

Meng Shan was silent for a while, and then said, "Then it's decided, let's buy a few pills of the Luo family's treasure medicine with some silver, so as to cure your illness, Madame." ”

Mrs. Su wanted to say something, but a handsome young man rushed in from outside the courtyard, and walked around the courtyard twice before entering the house to greet the old lady. It turned out to be the fifth son, Meng Chen, who claimed to have seen the fireworks and rushed to catch the thief. But at first, he was dressed in a neat manner, not like getting up late at night; Second, although the signal flare reported an emergency, it could not clearly indicate the matter of "Xiangyun Garden making thieves", and it was not surprising that he said "catch the thief" in a positive tone as soon as he came in.

However, Meng Shan and his wife were tired, and no one noticed Meng Chen's strangeness, and after a few orders from him, he let him lead the guards to find the thief. Meng Shan lost his true anger for Mrs. Su again, and the two of them lay down in their clothes, and slept indiscriminately for a while before dawn.

Meng Shan saw that Mrs. Su's face was very bad, so he hurriedly woke her up and asked her to wait with some soup, and later he would first borrow three pills from Luo Chuangu that could cure all kinds of diseases in an emergency.

Mrs. Su still didn't want to take the Luo family's fart medicine, but she was already dumb at this time, and she couldn't say anything against it. She shook her head with difficulty to refuse, but Meng Shan was willing to comply, and her heart was full of heirlooms from the Luo family. In fact, with Meng Shan's mind and wisdom, how could he not understand that there is no medicine in the world that can cure all diseases, let alone any elixir, but seeing that Mrs. Su is so seriously ill, what do people who rush to the doctor not want to believe? Even if there is only one hope, he will give it a try!

"Madame is recuperating at home, I'll go and I'll go back." Meng Shan gave his wife a calm and gentle look, and then walked away quickly.

Mrs. Su reluctantly struggled to get up, and went to the secret room to take a look, the death-free gold medal on the incense case was still there, but the death-free iron ticket in the secret grid was gone. She was so frightened and angry that she could barely stand upright, and the old man didn't tell her the truth! This secret room was in her bedroom, and only his wife knew about opening the mechanism, and the same was true of the secret grid. Now the death-free gold medal is still here, but the iron coupon is gone, which proves that it is not someone else who patronizes the secret room, but the old man Meng Shan!

When the old man heard that she was suffering from an incurable disease, he wanted the Luo family's life-saving medicine very much. Luo Chuangu should not be so easy to hand over the medicine, let alone "first offer three pills to show the authenticity".

The condition proposed by their Luo family must be to exchange the death-free gold medal plus 40,000 taels of silver for the pill, and the master came to probe her bottom line and learned that the death-free gold medal was the glory earned by her son, and he resolutely refused to give it; At first, she thought that Luo Maitong was Engong, and she said that she could take three chances to save the three lives of the Luo family in Huzhou. The old man must have taken the ten chances on the iron ticket to negotiate with Luo Chuanwu and them!

Mrs. Su's eyes were dark, and she fell backwards, but was caught by a pair of white jade-like hands.

These hands belong to a man, and he is still the fifth son, Meng Chen, a special existence among the eleven sons of Master Meng. Everyone in the mansion knows that he is the son brought back by the master from outside, and his mother's identity is also disgraceful, so he can't go to the family tree for several years, until there is an assassin at a banquet who stabs the old man with a short knife, and Xiao Meng Chen smashed a wine glass off the blade and became a meritorious hero who saved his father, and even Mrs. Su was very grateful to him, and Meng Fu officially recognized his identity.

Over the years, Meng Chen's performance has become better and better, sometimes more eye-catching than Meng Xuan, who deliberately restrained his edge, and the master also praised him very much. Mrs. Su felt uncomfortable, so she often made a small move in secret and pulled Meng Chen's hind legs. For example, this time to marry several sons, she deliberately set a thirteen-year-old Miss Zhou family for Meng Chen, and wanted to delay his marriage for a few years, so that he would be a step behind Meng Xuan and others in giving birth to sons.

Although these small actions are harmless, after all, Meng Chen can also choose to have children with concubines and girls first, but Mrs. Su is sure that Meng Chen must hate her in her heart.

Now that she saw Meng Chen in the secret room, Mrs. Su was like a thief, she bracked her body, grabbed Meng Chen's neckline, and scolded: "Dead boy, did you steal the iron ticket to avoid death?" What do you want to do? Are you going to ruin the Meng family? If you hate me in your heart, and you only come to me alone, there is no second person in this family who is sorry for you except me, and you can't hurt them! ”

Meng Chen's appearance is very beautiful, with satin-like black hair scattered over his shoulders, and he looks like a weak scholar at first glance. His eyebrows are distinct, and his eyeballs are a bottomless pitch blackness, and if you look at it for a while, you have the illusion that you are about to be sucked in. There was a cold smile in those dark eyes, but when Mrs. Su fixed her eyes to confirm the evidence of "hatred", that sneer disappeared without a trace.

Meng Chen let the weak Mrs. Su tug at his collar, and said in a calm and gentle tone: "Mother, don't blame me, I came to report the situation of catching the thief, and I couldn't find my mother outside, so I followed my mother's coughing sound to find me." If I really am a thief, I should have fled without waiting for my mother to find out, how could I support you? ”

Mrs. Su felt justified when she heard this, dispelled her doubts, and asked Meng Chen to help her out, and Meng Chen did as she was told. Mrs. Su carefully closed the door of the secret room, returned to the bedside, and finally couldn't support it anymore, and told Meng Chen to "stop your father, don't let him do stupid things", and she fell into the torture of illness in the dark.

In the quiet room where there was no third person present, Meng Chen stood with his hands in his hands, still looking at her with a gentle face, neither going out of the house to find his father, nor rushing to call the doctor to come to see him, with a pair of deep black pupils, he locked the secret room switch in the inner room.

At noon, He Angelica in the bamboo garden was very busy. In the grounding, she has no shortage of treatment, not only does she eat and drink well, but Mama Leng also sent a hundred maids and women to let her choose her subordinates. She selected for half an hour, and only eight people were left behind.

The precious selection rate of "one hundred into eight" made everyone look at the eight inconspicuous little maids with envy, and they couldn't figure out what the selection criteria for the seventh grandmother were.

After lunch, Yitong, who was dressed as a maid, couldn't hold back any longer, he tiptoed into He Angelica's room, and asked anxiously, "Should we do something?" Could it be that he watched the fifth master murder Mrs. Su? She's the son's mother-in-law! ”
