Riding the Pheonix Chapter 86: Old things

Yang Shu did not enter the inner room, but sat in the outer room, listening to the conversations coming from inside.

"Ten years ago, the master died in Beggarhu, and even the body was not recovered. The wife was heartbroken, so she had to go back to Dongning to erect a tomb. The family treated her very well, built a garden, and hired someone to call her Mrs. Stay at home with peace of mind."

"After a period of time, one night when Madam was in Liujingtang, the Sixth Master suddenly broke in and gave Madam..."

Mother Tong stretched out her hand to wipe her tears: "This matter was handled by the second master. He beat the sixth master severely, and drove the related maids and servants to sell them. The lady did not dare to commit suicide for the sake of the young lady. I have to endure it."

"We all thought that the matter was over. Until one day, the second master came over and said that he wanted to talk to the wife alone. But we found out after a while that the second master and his wife had disappeared together!"

"Where did they go?"

Nanny Tong said: "Madam didn't come back until the next day. Madam looked very bad. I kept guard for several days before she recovered and told me..."

She gritted her teeth and said with difficulty: "The second master actually knocked her out and gave her to someone else!"

Although Mingwei had already made a guess, when he heard what Nanny Tong said, he still felt heartbroken like thousands of ants eating his heart.

Mother Tong shed tears and said: "Everyone in Dongning knows that Madam is beautiful. That man saw her once and never forgot her. In order to please that man, the second master actually sent Madam away! It was us who mistakenly considered Jackal as our family member. , and this is beyond redemption!"

Mingwei remained silent, listening to Nanny Tong crying for a while, and then continued: "If there is one, there are two. They were sure that Madam did not dare to die, and they became more and more reckless. Madam gradually gave up and simply stopped. I think too much, just for the future. When the young lady grows up, I will send the young lady to my uncle’s house in the name of marriage. When the time comes..."

"When the time comes, will she die to prove her ambition?" Mingwei intercepted her words.

Mother Tong covered her face and cried.

She is just a weak woman. Her husband is dead and her family is far away. What can she do except fight with death?

Mingwei didn't dare to think about it any more.

She asked hoarsely: "Who is the second master trying to please?"

Mother Tong choked and shook her head: "Madam never mentioned those things."

Mingwei took a deep breath and brought the topic back to that matter: "Mommy, do you remember if anything unusual happened in the garden ten years ago?"

Mother Tong wiped away her tears and said, "Miss, do you want to ask about the corpse in the garden?"

Mingwei nodded: "Counting the time, that person happened to die ten years ago."

Mother Tong thought hard: "Ten years ago...if there was anything going on, it was probably haunted."

Sure enough, I mentioned this!

"I asked my mother about this, but she didn't seem to want to mention it."

Mother Tong laughed miserably: "Why would you want to mention it, madam? That ghost is the master!"

Sujie let out a low exclamation.

She was young and was chosen later, so she didn’t know these things.

Mingwei's eyes flashed, thoughtfully.

"What's going on?"

Mother Child sighed: "At that time, my wife was stuck in the mud and suffering. One night, she went to the lake in a daze..."

Mingwei heard the meaning. Mrs. Mingsan hadn’t thought about it at that time and was thinking of committing suicide.

"The slave found that the madam was not there and hurriedly went out to look for her. Later, she found the madam by the lake and found that she was crying bitterly, saying that she was sorry for the master. After listening for a long time, the slave knew that the madam had seen the ghost of the master... Later, the lady I will never mention this matter, and I will no longer seek death."

Ming Wei felt heavy after hearing this, and it took him a long time to ask with difficulty: "That day, was there a crescent moon in the sky?"

Nanny Tong shook her head: "It was the fifteenth day, and the moon was full. I remember it very clearly, the moonlight was very bright."

……

Back at Liujingtang, Mingwei didn’t speak for a long time.

Yang Shu wanted to say it several times, but swallowed it back.

Even Ah Wan behaved herself and made no sound except pouring tea for them.

Yang Shu thought about it for a long time and finally came up with an explanation: "Not all men are like this, at least I'm not..."

Mingwei chuckled: "Others are sanctimonious, but you are the opposite, right?"

Before he could speak, Mingwei waved his hand: "Forget it, this kind of words is more appropriate for Mr. Jiang."

Yang Shu was unhappy: "What do you mean? What's wrong with me?"

"Okay, okay, you're fine." She replied perfunctorily and said, "I didn't say that all men in the world are like this. You don't have to rush to defend yourself."

She has been wandering around the world for many years, what kind of dirty things has she not seen? There are bad people and good people in the world.

She just felt that Mrs. Mingsan was so pitiful. Others would also meet good people when they met bad people, but she met all bad people.

With this interruption, the atmosphere became a little more relaxed.

Mingwei returned to the topic: "As I expected, the so-called seeing ghosts is actually seeing people."

Yang Shu nodded: "Ming San is not dead, where is the ghost? That night was most likely the time when Geng San was killed. But there is one thing, it was a full moon..."

"The moon in Gengsan's impression may not be the real moon." Mingwei paused, "I still have one doubt that I can't figure out."

"Huh?"

"Mingsan was a weak scholar." She said, "According to what you said, Gengsan was extremely powerful. How was he killed? His neck bones were directly twisted. This was absolute suppression by force."

Yang Shu sighed: "This is something I can't understand either."

The number one master of the Imperial City Division, there are only a few people in the world who can surpass him, and each one of them has a well-known name in the world.

Will those people come to help Ming San kill people? Just kidding...

"But some things ~IndoMTL.com~ can be straightened out." Mingwei continued, "Based on time, my mother returned to Dongning and was first bullied by Mingliu and then asked Minger to give it to someone. . Later, Mingsan sneaked back to Dongning. There was a time lag here. By the time Mingsan came back, things were irreversible, and it was his brother who did this. He was a dead man and could not show up. He had to You can only rely on your brothers. If you weigh the two, you will simply push your wife deeper into hell..."

"This choice is quite smart." Yang Shu's tone was mocking, "My wife has been defiled, and he can't let time go back. Thinking about it this way, it's better to make the best use of everything."

"It's good to put everything to its best use." Mingwei sneered, "In his eyes, his wife is just a thing."

Yang Shu sighed: "My wife can remarry, and my children can be reborn. In the past, when the emperor of the Han Dynasty was at stake, didn't he push his children out of the car?"

Don’t Mingwei know this? This is the world.

Hateful world situation!

"As for the person the second master wants to please, I think it should be..."

"Prince Qidong." Yang Shu said, "At present, it seems that Ming Er should be an insider. When the news of Ming San's death came to him, he must have been panicked, and he couldn't even try to please Prince Qidong in order to seek protection. It can be known."

Ming Wei whispered: "One day the truth will be revealed. None of these people can escape!"

When Yang Shu left, he looked at the golden hairpin in her hair and told Ah Wan: "After wearing it for a few days, I know everything I need to know. If this thing is really so important, the other party can do anything. It's possible, so you have to be extremely careful. We still don't know Mingsan's details, but if there really is a top expert around him..."

Ah Wan is very confident: "Don't worry, young master! No matter if they assassinate, poison, or steal, as long as I'm here, I will never let them succeed - why don't you scream if I can't defeat you?"
