Chapter 637: No news is the best news
As soon as I entered the alley, an aunt stepped forward and asked: "Ouch, you just moved here, these three are your granddaughters, three golden flowers, blessed!" ”
The old woman rolled her eyes: "Are you scolding?" Is this called blessedness? What is the blessing of your family? Three golden flowers, three money-losing goods, I'm bah! ”
The old woman said, a mouthful of thick phlegm spit out, almost spit on the aunt, the aunt took a step back, ouch, where did this barbarian come from, we don't have this person in the capital, let's stay away, it's disgusting.
In less than half a day, the news that the new neighborhood was an unreasonable evil old woman spread all over the alley.
When the mother-in-law told her daughter-in-law, don't provoke that family, and when the mother told her own children, don't play with the children of that family, lest something happen to her family.
In short, it has only been a day since the three generations of grandparents moved in, and they have become cats and dogs.
Therefore, when the arrogant old woman went out with her pitiful-looking granddaughter, the old lady and the little daughter-in-law, who were gossiping in the alley, and the children who were playing, all turned their faces to the other side and pretended not to see them.
So Minghui and Duoduo walked out of this alley in rows of back heads.
When they came to the bun shop not far from the Imperial Prison, Deng Ce was dressed in a green coat and a small hat, dressed like a scholar of some family, and was waiting for them with a sad face.
"Sister-in-law." Minghui ignored him, this kid really has no eyesight, you are so young, will you have a sister-in-law who is old and strong?
The bun shop has obviously been arranged, and the three of them successfully entered the secret passage, and in the secret passage, they simply changed their appearance, turning into a eunuch and two palace maids, and when they saw the light of day again, they were already in the Dan room of the first emperor's alchemy.
Unlike last time, there was no one in the Dan room last time, but this time, there was already someone waiting for them here.
Ji Mian.
Seeing Ji Mian, Minghui was startled, not because of Ji Mian's sudden appearance, but because of Ji Mian's appearance.
Compared with the last time they met, it has been less than a year, and Ji Mian has lost his weight to the point of losing his appearance.
It's like being twenty years older.
"Master Ji" Minghui didn't know what to say.
She knew that Ji Mian was also a teacher and friend to Huo Yu, and Huo Yu's affection for him far exceeded that of Huo Houye.
Before, Minghui only knew that Ji Mian's health had been bad after he was seriously injured, but she didn't expect that it would be "bad" to this point.
Ji Mian smiled: "I scared you like this?" It's okay, I'm just hurting my vitality, and Ge Wu said that as long as I recuperate, I can live for at least another ten years. ”
He said it calmly, but Minghui's heart was very sad, could he only live for another ten years at most?
After becoming a mother, her heart is softer than before.
Minghui didn't speak, waiting for Ji Mian to continue.
"I heard Xiao Deng say that you want to enter the palace, I thought about it, it's okay to enter the palace, there are some things I have to tell you."
Ji Mian's body was weak, and after only a few words, his breath was already unstable, he paused, let himself relax, and then continued: "You may think that with Huo Yu's current status and his importance in Flying Fish Guard, he shouldn't have to perform such a dangerous mission anymore, right? ”
Ji Mian's voice was gentle, like an ordinary family elder, Minghui lowered her head, and silence was her answer.
Ji Mian continued: "In the interrogation of Si Qin, Zheng Yuzhu and others, we have a guess, that is, Cai Jiufeng's life is not long, and his godsons and grandsons have been secretly allied and divided into several forces, on the surface the biggest forces are the boss and the seventh, nine and thirteenth fourteenth, they serve the boss as the mainstay, and secretly have close contacts with the king of East and West, but after our analysis, we think that this is only a superficial phenomenon, Cai Jiufeng deliberately let them sit big, but in private, but he is cultivating the eleventh.
Cai Jiufeng is worthy of being a generation of overlords who have been crisscrossing the sea for 50 years, he creates contradictions, lets his godsons fight each other, he cultivates Lao Eleven, and lets Lao Eleven do business with the generals of the Wa Kingdom instead of him, and cultivate his own forces, so among Cai Jiufeng's godsons now, the most powerful is actually Lao Eleven.
After we came to this conclusion, we decided to send a fine saku to go undercover, intensify the contradictions, and let these godsons be defeated and injured, and without waiting for the new forces to be cultivated, assassinate or aggravate Cai Jiufeng's condition, and then cooperate with the water master.
I originally had other candidates, but Huo Yu took the initiative to ask Ying, and he said that he was the most suitable person, and he had to go, because his biological mother was on the island. ”
Speaking of this, Ji Mian took out a letter, and the fire paint on the envelope was intact.
Minghui knew this fire paint, when she and Huo Yu were not married, every time they communicated, it was this fire paint.
In front of Ji Mian, she took out the letter from the envelope.
After only a few lines, she burst into tears.
It was Huo Yu's suicide note to her!
In fact, she didn't need to look at it, she also knew why Huo Yu went in person, it was because of her mother-in-law Feng.
Of course, Huo Yu could ask others to bring Feng back, but in that case, no one could guarantee that he would be able to escape with his whole body, let alone bring a woman with no martial arts.
Besides, the Feng family seems to be on the island where the slaves work, and does not live on Cai Jiufeng's island, and this mission, the target is only one person, that is, Cai Jiufeng, as for the slaves who were caught on various islands, it is very likely that they will be abandoned, and Feng is of course among them.
Therefore, if Feng can still have the possibility of being rescued, then it must be Huo Yu, and it can only be Huo Yu.
Ming Hui knew that if Huo Yu didn't go in person for this mission, and Feng didn't come back, it would be a heavy blow to Huo Yu, and this blow would affect his life, and he would blame himself until he died.
What Huo Yu said in the letter, Minghui had already thought of it, but when she really saw it, she still burst into tears.
Her Huo Bao, and didn't even come back to see her and Brother Zao'er for the last time before leaving.
He couldn't bear it, let alone dare, he was afraid that he would be reluctant, and he was afraid that he would change his mind.
Minghui folded the letter and put it back in the envelope, she wiped away her tears and looked at Ji Mian with a calm expression: "You handed me this letter because he died?" ”
Ji Mian was startled and secretly regretted that he just wanted to explain this matter to Minghui, but he ignored that there was another meaning of the letter.
"No, as for today, at this moment, I have not received news of his sacrifice."
Minghui nodded, a smile tugging at the corner of her mouth: "No news is the best news." ”
Ji Mian sighed silently in his heart, Huo Yu's daughter-in-law is really transparent, this kid's vision is very good.
