Chapter 173: When we see each other and fight like we don't see each other (3)
Ming's? Out of Xiu thought about it for a moment, and then remembered that he had indeed accepted the Ming family's worship today, and he only blamed himself for remembering to see Shen Yu enter the city in the morning, but he forgot about it. Izuku smiled self-deprecatingly, trying to recall what Mingying looked like many years ago.
Izumi boasted that she never forgot it, and her memory was amazing, but at this moment, she found that no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't remember Mingying's appearance at all. The jealous and arrogant lady in the impression is now only a vague shadow of arrogance, and she can't even remember how she insulted herself and how she felt at the beginning.
How hateful, unwilling, humiliated, and desperate I was...... Now it's a thing of the past. Just after going to see Shen Yu enter the city, she suddenly realized that two years of life was enough to erase the past, not to mention that her grievances with Ming Ying had passed for a long time.
If it weren't for the 50 million taels of gold, she would have let go completely. But Yun Ci started deploying more than six years ago, how could she let him down? How could he live up to his plan?
She naturally wants to carry out Yun Ci's unfinished plan to the end.
Izumi pondered for a long time before he asked Yun Feng, "Is Lord Helian here?" ”
Yun Feng shook his head: "There are only two Ming brothers and sisters." ”
Helianqi didn't come? Out of Xiu was quite unexpected. This is strange, last month she clearly saw Helian Qi send the post to King Cheng's mansion, proving that he also came to Yanlan City. Why didn't he and his wife come together? Or did Nie Peixiao also refuse to see Helianqi?
If Nie Peixiao really refused to meet, Izumi could also guess the reason. One is that the dignified King Cheng wants to get rid of his relationship with the Ming family; The second is that he is disgusted with the past when Helian Qi abandoned Han Chu.
Izuku sighed silently in the bottom of his heart, looked at the men's clothes on his body again, and then said to Yun Feng: "Teach their brothers and sisters to wait in the living room, and I'll change my clothes and come over." ”
Yun Feng took the order and left.
*****
Two hours ago. A small building on the outskirts of Yanlan City.
This small garden is not big, only a small building that is not high, but it is quiet and quiet, chic and exquisite, and it is also a very good courtyard. In the past, the small building was the private property of an official in the Nanxi Dynasty, and five or six years ago, he gave this chic and exquisite garden to the Ming family because he had a request for the right minister Ming Cheng. Later, Ming Ying got married, and Ming Cheng transferred it to his beloved daughter, which was one of her dowries
More than a year ago, when Shen Yu was ordered to try the Ming family's case and raid his house, Ming Ying had already married Helian family, so this small building of blowing flowers was saved from confiscation. The Mingying brothers and sisters and Helian Qi have been living here for a few days, looking forward to finding an opportunity to visit King Cheng and Mrs. Dexiu.
Today's Mingying is no longer the concubine of the right minister and the niece of the queen. Although she is still the eldest daughter-in-law of the Helian clan and the mother of a pair of children, in the end, she is a person who has suffered a great change in her family, and she is not as sharp as she has ever been in the front, but she still has a strong temperament.
In particular, after the Ming family fell into the middle, she was forced to hand over the power to preside over the feed, and her mother-in-law became more and more unwilling to see her. This alone made her feel resentful.
"Looking at the Nanxi Dynasty now, the most prominent ones are Prince Cheng and the Yun family, these are all people with deep family backgrounds and meritorious support, and now we can't afford to be offended." Mingying was grooming in the mirror, sighing faintly, looking extremely sentimental.
Since Helian Qi knew that Izuku had taken over Mingzhang's post, he was also worried and mixed in his heart. Why doesn't she answer her own posts? Instead, will you pick up the posts of the Ming brothers and sisters? He couldn't figure it out and was anxious about it.
But Helian Qi also knows that today's Mrs. Izumi is no longer a weak and bullying Han Chu, not to mention that the clan has fallen, even if the Ming clan is standing, Izuxiu, as the head of the Yun family, will no longer be afraid of Ming Ying. What's more, now that Mingzhang owes the Yun clan a huge amount of money, he is already a dwarf.
So this time the Ming brothers and sisters went to Yunfu to visit, and he was not worried that Ming Ying would hurt Chu Xiu at all.
Helian Qi was thinking about it, but heard Ming Ying say again: "Today, my eldest brother and I went to visit Mrs. Zhuxiu, you must go to King Cheng's Mansion and wait, even if you can't see King Cheng himself, you are not allowed to leave." ”
Helian Qi was most disgusted with Ming Ying's strong tone, and subconsciously sneered at her, sarcastically mocking: "Why should I go? ”
Ming Ying didn't see annoyance, turned around from the dresser, and said to him: "Think about it, now that King Cheng and the Yun clan are entrenched at the north and south ends of Yanlan City, which one of them can we offend?" If King Cheng knew that we had gone to see Mrs. Izuku first, what would he think? He will inevitably fight for this 'first come, first come, first come' principle, maybe he will think that we don't take him seriously, or think that we have some shady tricks with the Yun Clan. That's why you have to go to King Cheng's Mansion and let King Cheng understand that we are a bowl of water, and neither of the two families can be offended. ”
Helian Qi sneered again when he heard this: "You think really carefully, I'm afraid you're too worried." He asked himself if he had known Nie Peixiao for many years, on top of these etiquettes and etiquette, Nie Peixiao had never followed the rules, so where did he think so much?
Ming Ying seemed to be accustomed to seeing Helian Qi being cold to herself, and when she heard this, she only glanced at him and replied: "It is said that it is useless to be a scholar, if I am a man, I should be able to see the situation in the Qing Dynasty better than you." ”
"Aren't you also married to a scholar?" Helian Qi's face was expressionless: "My father-in-law has indeed seen the situation between the DPRK and China clearly, otherwise he would not have come to this point." ”
Since the fall of the Ming family, Ming Ying has not listened to others satirizing her family background. At this moment, she was annoyed when she heard this, so she suddenly got up and walked towards Helianqi, pointed at him with one hand and said, "What do you mean by this?" All right! Now that my Ming clan has fallen, you dare to yell at me! If I hadn't had my father and aunt to support you, would you have been able to become a waiter in the criminal department at a young age? Even if the Helian family is a century-old scholar, it is also a group of scholars, what real power can they have? ”
"I really don't have real power in my hands, so why did you marry me in the first place?" Helianqi sneered.
yes, why did I marry her. The tip of Mingying's nose was sour, remembering a scene from her childhood. At the beginning, Helian was the head of the Helian family, and he brought his most beloved grandson to the Prime Minister's house, and it happened that he had just been bullied by his second brother, so he ran to his father to complain regardless of it, and broke into his father's study.
At that time, she was only eight years old, and Helianqi was ten years old, and when she broke into the study, Helianqi was sitting in a chair, politely replying to her father's questions word by word. Ming Ying has not been out of the Prime Minister's Mansion since she was a child, and her two elder brothers are also domineering tempers, and the first time she saw this kind of gentle and gentle family disciple, she was also quite impressed by Helian Qi.
Later, when she was twelve years old, she met Helian Qi again, but the other party had long forgotten who she was, but she still clearly remembered the time she met him four years ago. Mingying reported to her family and tried to evoke Helianqi's memory, but she only got him a sentence "Who is Mingying?" ”
This incident, this sentence, made her reserved and proud heart fall into the abyss, and the heavy sense of loss and shame came to her face, which made her linger. At that time, she swore that one day, she would let Helianqi remember her, and willingly like her, even begging to marry her. Then, she would kick him away with a hard kick, breaking his heart.
The name "Helian Qi" was a hard wound in Mingying's heart when she was a girl, she held a grudge for many years, but she was ecstatic when she heard that Helian was proposing marriage for her grandson, and she no longer remembered the original intention of refusing to marry.
However, she later learned that it was not Helian Qi's intention to marry her, but his grandfather Helian Zheng's intention. At the same time that the marriage between the two families was quickly decided, Helian Qi also went in and out of Fengyue and pampered a prostitute!
is his dignified concubine and the queen's niece, do you want to compete with a lowly prostitute for a man?! Mingying only remembered that she was jealous at that time and felt greatly insulted, so she complained to her aunt, who was the queen, and her aunt came forward to recruit Helianqi's mother and reprimanded her.
I don't know how Helian Qi's family was settled, in short, after that, Helian Qi intermittently stopped intermittently intermittently intermittently intermittent to deal with her, but Mingying still felt indignant, so she called Han Chu out many times to insult her, and even wanted to scratch her face with a hairpin.
If it weren't for the fact that she was afraid of the many admirers of Han Chu, and was afraid that the world would criticize her for being jealous, she would have ruined Han Chu in spite of dissuasion. It's a pity that before he could do it, a fire burned the "Nanxi No. 1 Beauty" to death. I heard that it burned beyond recognition, like black coal.
Mingying and Helian Qi were newly married at the time, and when they heard the news, they only felt extremely happy, but they found that Helian Qi was becoming more and more cold to him...... She thought about it for a long time before she realized that Helian Qi suspected that she was behind the burning of Han Chu.
For so many years, the two of them have always been inseparable, Mingying knows that she has a big temper, and she has not thought about changing, but Helian Qi is too cold to herself, and when she has sex, it is like completing a task, and she has never said a word of warmth......
And when the Ming clan fell, the Helian family was worried, and they ran up and down to mediate, but only she, her husband, Helian Qi, seemed very calm, watching the fire from the other side, and even ...... Gloat.
Whenever she thinks of these old things, she also wants to be angry, but also to maintain her pride, and she doesn't want to beg him. Thinking like this, Ming Ying was also discouraged, and then saw that Helian Qi was still expressionless, and couldn't help but feel sour in her heart, and sighed coldly: "After so many years, you still can't forget Han Chu." ”
Helian Qi's face froze and he didn't make a sound.
Mingying lowered her eyes and said, "I know, you thought I set fire to her, so you were angry with me." But this matter really has nothing to do with me! ”
"I didn't say that you set the fire, you are too careful." Helian Qi replied, still in a cold tone.
Hearing this, Ming Ying felt even more sour. Over the years, she has clarified at least five or six times in front of Helianqi, saying that she is not the real culprit behind the burning of Han Chu. But every time she explained like this, Helianqi always replied to her coldly - "You are too careful".
He still refused to believe her. Between husband and wife, there is no trust at all. But she has given birth to children for him, and now she can't do without it. What's more, the Ming clan has fallen, and clinging to the Helian clan is her only way out.
Ming Yingwu sighed with emotion, but at this moment she heard a greeting from outside the door: "Third sister, sister-in-law, have you cleaned up?" ”
Ming Ying hurriedly came back to her senses and replied to the door with restraint: "Hmm! This is out! After that, he looked at Helian Qi again and asked him, "Then do you want to go to King Cheng's Mansion?" ”
Helian Qi sneered on his lips: "I inquired about the news that today Shen Yu led the army back to the city, and King Cheng wanted to set up a banquet to reward the lieutenant officers and soldiers of the army, but I am afraid that he will not be free all day...... I know that if I go, I will be closed, so why should I go? ”
Seeing this, Mingying was no longer reluctant, but sighed: "That's why I said, this Mrs. Xiu is really not simple." Shen Yu, that chaotic minister and thief, if he hadn't been the uncle of the Yun family, and she would have protected him, how could he have turned over, and his career was smooth sailing, and he also copied my Ming family! Speaking of the last sentence, Mingying's mouth had a faint sense of resentment.
Helian Qi looked at her sideways: "How do you know that it was Mrs. Xiu who protected Shen Yu?" He used to be friendly with King Cheng, and now he is under King Cheng, wouldn't it be King Cheng who protected him? ”
Hearing this, Ming Ying analyzed quite complacently: "If you really want to talk about identity, King Cheng and Emperor Tianzhu have a deep brotherhood, because of this, how can he recommend King Fu's sister-in-law to join the office?" You must know that in the past, King Fu and Emperor Tianzhu were mortal enemies, and King Cheng would not be so stupid, isn't this pouring dirty water on himself! ”
At this point, Ming Ying paused, and said in a low voice: "On the contrary, it is rumored in the world that when the day before yesterday granted Emperor Long Qianfangzhou, he had a personal ...... with Mrs. Zhuxiu."
Before the word "love" could be spoken, Helian Qi had already stood up suddenly, frowned and reprimanded: "What nonsense are you talking about!" ”
In front of Mingying, Helian Qi was rarely angry. Seeing him suddenly like this, Ming Ying was a little surprised, and immediately replied, "What are you doing to get angry?" Am I wrong? She was a widow at a young age, if she didn't have the means, how could she take the Yun clan to this peak status? It must have been King Mu who supported her behind her back. ”
"Mingying!" Helian Qi seemed to be really annoyed, and even called her full name, and then reprimanded: "If you slander her again, go back to Jingzhou immediately!" ”
Mingying still didn't know who Mrs. Chuxiu was, and when she saw her husband so annoyed, she only felt confused, and dropped a teacup on the case: "When is this!" You're still making trouble! I don't think about how to help my brother pay off his debts and let him go back to work, you still mess with me! ”
Xu is movement in the house was too loud, Mingzhang outside couldn't wait any longer, and broke the door in: "Why is it arguing again!" ”
Ming Ying snorted coldly, forcibly enduring her grievances and unwilling to shed tears.
Mingzhang knew that his sister had a strong temperament, and his brother-in-law was mostly forbearing, and sighed: "Okay, okay, I have to go to Lixinhou Mansion today, if it's late, it's rude." Now your brother and I still have a request for her. ”
As he spoke, he turned to Helian Qi and asked, "Sister-in-law, are you going?" ”
Helian Qi's lips hooked up a meaningful sarcastic smile, glanced at Ming Ying, and then replied, "I'm not going...... I won't go to King Cheng's Mansion either, I'll just wait here. ”
He waited to see how Ming Ying behaved when she saw Izuxiu, and waited to see her come back in a rage. This kind of pleasure of revenge, Helianqi has been waiting for too long.
