Chapter 297: Mingzhi

Mingzhu saw that the hour was almost up, so he got up and said goodbye: "I wanted to have a meal with my family, but I didn't tell Your Highness that I was going back to my parents' house, so I had to come back another day." ”

Fu Cong waved at her: "Go, go." Remember not to be willful, the King of England treats you well, and you don't have to make an inch, don't be arrogant. After thinking about it, he praised it again: "The few things you did with your fourth brother a few days ago were very good." ”

Mingzhu knew that he was referring to Jiang Shanshan's incident, smiled at him, and walked out quickly. returned to the backyard and quit with Cui's, Qian and others, and hurried back to the British Palace. Packed up and prepared dinner, Yu Wenchu came back.

Yuwen first saw a few delicate pastries on the table, which were not the usual styles made in the British Prince's Mansion, and vaguely remembered that they had eaten in the Fu Mansion, so he asked, "Go back to your mother's house?" ”

Mingzhu didn't hide it from him: "Well, I went to see my father and my mother, and by the way, I asked about the affairs in the palace." ”

Yu Wenchu walked up to her and sat down, and said with a solemn expression: "Rong Ming committed suicide." He took advantage of the fact that the little eunuch who was waiting for him was not paying attention, and ran to the Kyushu platform outside the Chongzheng Hall and jumped down shouting and wrongdoing, when there were still many courtiers waiting under the Kyushu stage. ”

The tea bowl in Mingzhu's hand fell to the ground with a "dang" and fell into powder. She never thought that Rong Ming, who was supposed to die three years later, would be gone like this. And in such a tragic way, he simply ended his life.

Yu Wenchu called someone in to clean up the broken porcelain, gently held Mingzhu's hand, and said in a low voice: "This is the best way." ”

Rong Ming's reputation has been tarnished, and he was insulted by the young emperor in public, and the empress dowager threw a rat trap and couldn't openly stand up for him, but anyone who was bloody and responsible couldn't tolerate it. Since you can't take revenge, you have to think more about the Empress Dowager, then suicide is the best way to deal with it. The reason why he chose to jump off the Kyushu platform and die vigorously in front of the courtiers was also to make the most of his death to gag everyone's mouths. It is not so much that he is avenging his grievances, but that he is complaining for the Empress Dowager.

As soon as Rong Ming dies, no matter how much the other party wants to borrow him to make a fuss, he can't. At most, it can only be said that he committed suicide in fear of sin, but Rong Ming is a former Tanhualang, who writes a good splendid article, and speaks even more eloquently, he impassionedly started from Zhou Guifei's troubles in the palace on the Kyushu platform, and has been talking about the sudden death of Emperor Zhengqian, and how the Empress Dowager supported the young emperor to ascend the throne, how to work hard for government affairs, and struggled to survive in front of powerful neighbors, so that the people in the country have food and clothing, and finally he said that he was just a eunuch and could not do anything for the Empress Dowager, Only blood can wash away her humiliation.

Yu Wenchu originally had a lot of opinions about Rong Ming, no matter what, the Empress Dowager was always his mother-in-law, representing the dignity of the royal family, and it was not a pleasant thing to spread such unbearable rumors. Rong Ming's choice was both expected and unexpected by him.

It is expected that because of Fu Cong, even if the empress dowager is reluctant to die for Rong Ming, even if Rong Ming himself is reluctant to die, Fu Cong will not allow Rong Ming to live for the sake of the overall situation of his family and country, so Rong Ming must die. Unexpectedly, it was because of Rong Ming's bloodiness and responsibility, as well as his talent.

The son of the former Guogong, the young and merry Tanhualang, once fell from the clouds into the sludge, and survived for a long time, and he could not die well. If it weren't for the loyal love for the Queen Mother, how could it be?

"Rong Ming was born at the wrong time, it's a pity." Yu Wenchu commented on this eunuch who he never looked very like, if Rong's case happened in his hands, even if Rong Ming could not be pardoned due to the law, he would not treat Tanhualang of the dynasty with such a punishment as not entering the palace. Even if the capital can't keep people, there are still border passes that allow Rong Ming to play a skill.

Mingzhu raised his head and looked at Yu Wenchu, and said softly: "Actually, you already know the result, don't you?" ”

Yu Wenchu sighed and did not deny it: "Yes, I know, and my father-in-law also knows." However, this is the best option. He and she emphasized: "The Empress Dowager also knows." ”

This means that the Empress Dowager knew that Rong Ming would die, but she didn't stop it? Mingzhu knew that they were all right, and they were the most rational and calm choices, but she always felt that there was a large heavy stone blocking her throat, making her unable to swallow or spit out. If it were her, she would probably never have been so calm and ruthless.

Yuwen Chu saw her unbearable and sad, and couldn't help but sigh again, and said in a low voice: "Zhuzhu, this is a power struggle. Unlike the things you did before, you didn't see blood in those things, and the people who died were people who didn't have a direct connection with you, so you won't feel too embarrassed. This time it's different, you have to see the blood, the undead can't stop, and even more people will die. In a power struggle, it is not possible not to be ruthless. ”

Mingzhu shook his head: "I know, how can there be no blood in the battle?" What I am sad about is that I am unwilling...... "It is two people who have affection for each other, but the one who can save them has to indifferently watch each other die for themselves for the sake of the so-called overall situation and personnel." She couldn't do it, so when she saw Yu Wenchu calm down in a blink of an eye, she would think that if one day, he also needed her to sacrifice for the so-called overall situation, would he also calmly watch her die? Just thinking about it, my heart is cold.

Yu Wenchu stared at her for a while, then suddenly hugged her into his arms and said word by word: "Don't worry, I'm not such a person." ”

"Hmm." Mingzhu replied absentmindedly, broke away from his arm, and said, "Tomorrow I want to enter the palace to see the Empress Dowager." Even if the Empress Dowager didn't allow her to get involved, but her surname was Fu, and she was the Empress Dowager's favorite person, so it was impossible for her to stay out of the matter, not to mention, she didn't want to stay out of the matter.

Always pinning your hopes on someone else, what if that person can't be trusted? The Empress Dowager and her father and brother will grow old, get sick, die, and leave, and the same is true for Yu Wenchu. If Eunuch Rong had enough strength to protect himself, then the person who died today must not be Eunuch Rong, but his enemy and opponent. She doesn't want to be the one who is slaughtered by others, she dies for her lover, she is very brave and touching, but she wants to live, live heartily, and smile to see her lover die of old age. Seeing that when your lover is anxious and has nothing to do, wouldn't it be better to have the ability to help him solve his difficulties?
