At this time, the second brother has already gone away, right? Mingzhu simply said: "I was afraid that you would be embarrassed, so I didn't ask you." ”

Yu Wenchu was silent for a moment, and put the topic on the right track in the simplest way: "I know everything. ”

He was so crisp and neat, all the words that Mingzhu had prepared before were useless. The one who should have come will always come, and she didn't think that she could hide it from him all the time, so she was also quite relieved: "Yes, I asked the fourth brother to send the second brother away, he is innocent, even if everyone in the world says he deserves to die, he is still my second brother, even if he dies, it is a wrongful death." I don't want him to die at your hands, and he doesn't deserve to die at your hands. Now that I've done it, punish me. ”

"It's human nature for my sister to help my brother who was in distress escape." Yu Wenchu expressed his understanding, but said, "So, has the fourth uncle already sent the second uncle away?" ”

"Probably so." Mingzhu was originally very sure, but she was not confident at this time, because she did not receive a word from Fu Mingzheng, and Shen Ruilin did not send her any news. If he really left, Yu Wenchu's biggest possibility was to pretend not to know, but he wanted to talk to her.

Yu Wenchu saw Mingzhu's expression and knew that she should have guessed, so he said softly: "Send it to Jiguo to wait for the day when the truth is revealed to wash away the grievances of the second uncle, that is just your wishful thinking, have you considered the second uncle's thoughts?" ”

Mingzhu's heart fell to the bottom, she vaguely guessed the truth, but she refused to accept it, she looked straight at Yu Wenchu: "So what? ”

Yu Wenchu looked at her quietly: "The second uncle didn't go to Jiguo, and he didn't come back with the fourth uncle. He wasn't sure whether he should tell Mingzhu about Du Yu taking Fu Mingzhao away, so his words came to an abrupt end here.

Mingzhu only felt that her heart was pinched and then crumpled into a crumpled ball, her eyes were already misty, and her nose turned red: "And then?" ”

Yu Wenchu didn't look at her, but looked at the sparkling water: "A long time ago, when I sent my fourth uncle to find out the truth and find someone, I also informed Du Yu, so that he must find the whereabouts of the second uncle no matter what, because I know that you have a deep relationship with several uncles, and you can't let him disappear into Tongzhou without explanation." ”

Since the person sent out was Du Yu, of course, it was impossible to hide this matter from Yu Wenchu. Mingzhu took a breath and asked softly, "So, my second brother is with Du Yu now?" ”

Yu Wenchu nodded: "Yes." The second uncle didn't want to go to the country, and he didn't want to die in the vegetable market, he wanted to die on the battlefield, wash away the shame on him with blood, maintain the honor of the Fu family, and maintain the dignity of his brothers, sisters, and children. He wants Wenwen to marry gracefully, and he wants you to be calm. ”

Mingzhu turned her back to Yu Wenchu, staring at the vermilion pillar with wide eyes and unblinking, until she saw that her eyes were sore and tears were falling in large pieces.

"You said that I had better be the first to tell you everything, and tell you personally. So as hard as it is, I decided to tell you. Yuwen Chu handed the handkerchief to Mingzhu, he hoped that she could understand him, but he also knew that she could not understand him, at least at this time - there are few people who can remain calm and gentle in the face of the death of their loved ones, at least he can't do it, so he doesn't ask Mingzhu to do it.

Sure enough, Mingzhu didn't answer his handkerchief, she turned her back to him, with a heavy nasal voice, and asked very slowly: "If you have to send my second brother to Jiguo, Du Yu can do it, right?" ”

Yu Wenchu couldn't answer Mingzhu's question, because that's where their disagreement lies. The position is different, and the way of seeing things is different. He understands the reason why Mingzhu did this, he can acquiesce, but he will not agree with her, dereliction of duty is dereliction of duty, military law is not child's play, he must explain the massacre. There was no reason for him to stop Fu Mingzhao from ending this matter in another beautiful way, because this was the best way.

He could have said, "This is what the second uncle himself meant." Or, "I'm in pain too." But he didn't say anything, he chose to be silent.

Mingzhu left the water pavilion in silence. If Yu Wenchu really thinks that the second brother should survive, he can do it. Since he didn't do it, and prompted the second brother to go on another path, it shows that his heart does not approve of her approach. It's not easy for him, the second brother should be punished if he is wrong, she understands it, but she can't accept it.

Mingzhu returned to Yinghui Hall, fell asleep, half-asleep, half-asleep, she heard Yuwenchu come in in a trance, and asked Su Mei and the others, she didn't hear what she asked clearly, in fact, she didn't want to hear clearly, she didn't even want to see him.

How can you not be sad? Because I have seen the tragedy of the death of a loved one, it is even more terrible and painful when the tragedy is coming. She had previously sworn to Wenwen in private that her second brother would definitely come back, and she would definitely find a way to clear her second brother's grievances. But now, she doesn't know how to face Wenwen and her second sister-in-law.

Mingzhu slept from noon the first day to the next morning, Zhuang Zhuang and Mi Li'er thought she was sick, and gathered around her bed early to fight to feed her their favorite snacks. Mingzhu covered her eyes with her hands, quietly wiped away her tears, turned over and sat up, and showed a kind and gentle smile to the two children: "I'm just too tired, so I want to take a break." ”

The voices of the maids greeting from outside the door, Mingzhu saw Yu Wenchu standing at the door from the corner of her eye, and she could even feel his gaze fall on her like substance. But she still didn't want to talk to him now, so she pretended not to see him, and Yu Wenchu stood at the door for a while and left silently.

Mingzhu got up slowly, freshened up, had breakfast, and wanted to take the children home, but she didn't feel like facing the people at home, so she took the children to An Xiao's hometown.

An Xiaogu is about to give birth, basically not going out, she is very happy to see her with the children, busy with people to take out all the delicious and fun to entertain them, and said with great interest: "You see how well I maintain this figure?" The old ladies of our family were frightened by Princess Huayang, and they didn't allow me to eat more, I felt hungry every day, but I didn't dare to eat. ”

Mingzhu touched her belly and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, he is a good boy, he will definitely not make trouble with his mother." ”

An Xiaogu grew up with Mingzhu, how could she not see that she was not interested, so she sent her subordinates away and asked softly, "What's wrong with you?" Isn't the fourth brother on the way back? I haven't heard of the regent's order to do anything. ”

Mingzhu smiled bitterly: "It's about a bitter summer." ”
