Riding the Pheonix Chapter 164: Cousin
The emperor is an emperor after all. He quickly adjusted back and asked Yang Shu: "Is Ming Xin really not dead? In the early years, I thought that he was talented and had a good temper. If he polished it, he might be put to use. I didn't expect that he turned out to be useful. Such evil intentions."
"I have already verified it, and there is no doubt that it is Ming Xin." Yang Shu reported, "He has a twin brother, and this is also confirmed."
The emperor sighed: "The Marquis of Nanxiang was famous for his lifetime, but his descendants are so useless."
Yang Shu said: "Ming Xin certainly has evil intentions, and his brothers are also accomplices. However, the Ming family is not without good people. His brother Ming Chang, his nephew Ming Sheng, both contributed a lot, and his daughter... ”
Speaking of this, the emperor was very interested: "What you said before was ridiculous. The daughter of Mingxin has been stupid for more than ten years. Not only did she suddenly become better, she also learned some mysterious skills. There is such a magical thing in the world. ?"
Only Yang Shu and Ah Xuan Ah Wan knew the inside story of Ming Wei's soul resurrecting. Jiang Wenfeng probably guessed a little, but didn't ask in detail. This was somewhat considerate of her. If he knew the inside story, he would have to report it in detail out of the ethics that a minister should have.
Yang Shu reported: "It is true. According to her, she was born stupid because her soul was lost. Because her mother worshiped Empress Xuannv day and night, her sincerity moved the heavens, so she was taken in by Empress Xuannv and learned from her. A master of mystical arts."
The emperor has seen Xuan Shu. Xuandu Temple was appointed as the temple master, and he was the national master of this dynasty. It is said that Taizu made many achievements when he conquered the world. After hearing this statement, he was not suspicious and just sighed: "Ms. Ji is really a loving mother. What a pity."
Asked him again: "What is the relationship between this Ji family and the Ji family in Dongning that was almost wiped out?"
Yang Shu replied: "The Ji family is from this Ji family."
The emperor nodded: "No wonder. The Ji family is very courageous, but unfortunately they were unlucky and were almost wiped out by the rebel army. Is anyone in his family currently an official?"
"Yes. Ji Shu, the eldest brother of the Ji family, is currently a doctor of the Imperial College."
Of course the emperor would not remember such a minor official, but the Imperial College is a first-class university, and those who can become a doctor must have good knowledge.
"It seems that the Ji family has lived up to the legacy of their ancestors. This is good, and learning is the right thing to do."
When Yang Shu heard this, he felt relieved.
Mrs. Ming’s experience is not easy to make public, so it will probably be hidden in this case. And Mingwei had indeed made great contributions. The emperor asked this, intending to attribute this credit to Ji Shu.
He breathed a sigh of relief after finding out what he was talking about.
The family members of Prince Qidong can be saved, and the women and children of the Ming family should not be implicated.
No matter what, the emperor is indeed a rare benevolent king.
"Let's talk about the rest tomorrow." The emperor looked at him with a smile, "I've worked **** you these days. If I don't let you go back, I'm afraid the noble concubine will be angry with me."
A faint smile appeared on Yang Shu's face: "This is what I should do."
The emperor sighed: "You have grown up now, and you are able to handle things properly. But I still miss your wild and reckless behavior before, and I feel closer to you."
Yang Shu said: "I can't live in such a disorderly manner for the rest of my life, otherwise my grandmother will never be able to feel at ease..."
As he spoke, his voice dropped.
The emperor thought of his eldest sister and felt a little sentimental, and said: "Eldest sister must be relieved that you are like this now. Well, go back and rest. Jiang Qing will take care of these matters. You can rest well for a few days before returning to the palace. See your aunt inside."
"I resign."
Yang Shu came out of the palace, sat on his horse, looked back at the majestic palace city, and sighed quietly.
……
Mingwei slept well that night.
When she got up in the morning, she freshened up and took Duofu out to have breakfast.
In the main hall, the juniors have already arrived.
Ji Xiaowu drooped his head and was being laughed at by his niece: "Uncle is so shy and so swollen!"
His delicate and handsome face had a big swelling on his forehead, and Ji Ling was applying medicinal wine on him.
Ji Xiaowu grinned in pain, and even quarreled with his niece: "It's your father's fault, he made me fall!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Ling pressed hard, and Ji Xiaowu jumped up with a "ouch".
Little Zhuer was amused by him and giggled. She turned her head and saw Mingwei coming in. She stretched out her hand and shouted: "Auntie!"
Ji Xiaowu thought, has my sister returned to her parents’ home? Unexpectedly, when he looked up, what he saw was not either of the two sisters.
This girl...
He blinked.
Mr. Dong's voice sounded: "Uncle, this is my cousin. You came back late last night and didn't see me."
Mingwei stepped forward to greet him: "Fifth cousin."
Ji Xiaowu did not respond, staring straight at her without blinking.
Ji Ling saw that he didn't look good, so he pushed the swelling on his forehead: "My cousin is calling you!"
Ji Xiaowu jumped up with another "ouch", but pointed at Mingwei and shouted: "Brother! It was her I saw last night! She tricked me into climbing the rope!"
Ji Ling slapped him on the forehead, making Ji Xiaowu shrink back in fear as he covered the swelling on his forehead. His brother is so inhumane, he doesn’t treat his brother as a human being after he has a cousin!
Ji Ling scolded: "How dare you talk nonsense! It was obviously you who came back drunk and did such a shameful thing, and you actually blamed it on your cousin."
Ji Xiaowu protested: "I'm not drunk! I just drank two glasses of fruit wine with others, and I'm not drunk at all!"
"You're not drunk and you're riding on the wall in the middle of the night and driving yourself crazy?" Ji Ling didn't believe it at all. ~IndoMTL.com~ Ji Xiaowu was about to cry. He did go a little crazy last night due to the drunkenness, but his mind was sober! The scene last night is vivid in my mind. It was this cousin who dug a hole for him to jump in, causing him to hang under the flower stand and climb the rope in a daze. His brother shouted and was so frightened that he fell to the ground.
Ji Ling turned around and said softly: "Cousin, don't argue with him, he just has such a crazy temper."
Ming Wei smiled: "How could it be? I think it was too late yesterday and my fifth cousin was dazzled!"
Ji Xiaowu stared at her in disbelief.
This cousin looks like a fairy, how come she lies so easily!
At this time, Mr. Ji and Mrs. Ji came out.
The juniors stood up and greeted.
When Mr. Ji saw Ji Xiaowu's appearance, he frowned and scolded: "Look what you look like! I told you yesterday that my cousin was coming, why did you come back so late? Now you are still yelling and screaming, Not even polite."
Ji Xiaowu called out "Daddy" aggrievedly and wanted to complain, but he opened his mouth and held it back.
Forget it, even my eldest brother doesn’t believe in him, how do you expect your father to believe in him?
Thinking of this, he glared at Mingwei with resentment.
Master Ji was even more annoyed: "What's that look in your eyes? Have you greeted your cousin?"
In front of his father, Ji Xiaowu did not dare to be stubborn, so he had to hold back his grievances, casually saluted Mingwei, and called his cousin with a face.
Master Ji still wanted to scold him, but Mrs. Ji knew what kind of temper his younger son was, so if her husband continued to scold her, she didn’t even need to eat breakfast, so she came out to smooth things over: "Okay, okay, let’s eat first! Master, what are you doing?" If we have to give lectures, Xiao Wu also has to go to school!"
Master Ji then gave up and ordered with a sullen face: "Eat!"
