Rebirth of the eldest daughter

Meng Ziang leaned against the damp and cold wall, tears streaming down his face.

He opened his mouth, his voice choked and hoarse, and he slowly told the secret that destroyed his family.

He said: "When I was still in Beijing, Ajun and Qin Huan were like-minded. It's strange to say that the Bai family and the Qin family are at odds with each other, but Qin Huan is different from everyone in the Qin family."

Bai Mingwei frowned slightly when he heard the words: "Qin Huan?"

Mencius nodded: "Yes, Qin Huan. But I heard that he is already dead."

Bai Ming said softly: "Killed by me."

Meng Ziang was stunned for a moment. He took a deep look at Bai Mingwei, and then spoke again:
  "In the beginning, Qin Huan was broad-minded and ambitious. He was a rare talent. He was admired and liked by Ajun and I, so the three of us were often together and naturally understood each other's situations better. "

Bai Mingwei asked: "At the very beginning?"

Meng Ziang nodded: "That's right. At first he was indeed a very good person, but gradually he changed."

"Perhaps it's because he is obviously equally good, but outsiders only know about Bai Jun, the jade in the capital, but they don't know about Qin Huan."

"Ajun was the first person to notice his changes, and he reminded me more than once that we had different opinions from him, but I didn't listen."

After a pause, Meng Ziang continued to speak:
  "Later, because of my father's reputation and reputation, I had the opportunity to be recommended as an official. But soon, Qin Huan found me and said that the prince admired my talent in water conservancy."

"I was still young at that time, and I was proud of my talents. I was immediately flattered by the prince's appreciation, but I never thought that the prince of a country would notice me, a commoner like me."

Bai Mingwei's face was calm: "So, Mr. Meng believes that all the tragedies of the Meng family began with the incomprehension of people?"

Meng Ziang laughed at himself: "Where is the lack of understanding of people? He is clearly motivated by profit! He feels that if he has some talents, he can climb to the sky by stepping on the ladder of the prince, so that he turns a blind eye to Ajun's dissuasion."

"Immediately afterwards, I was summoned to the prince's residence by the prince. The prince acted like this, which made me feel that I was really valued by the prince, and I had the opportunity to step into a place that many people dream of."

"At that time, I was so complacent that I had no idea that the crisis was coming. It was precisely because of my lack of caution that I was punished in the end, and even the Meng family was implicated by me!"

Bai Mingwei was silent. She didn't think there was anything wrong with Meng Ziang's behavior?
  Being young and ignorant is one thing, but Meng Ziang's own environment is the fundamental reason.

Learn the arts of literature and martial arts, and sell it with the emperor's family.

In this world, a man's lifelong pursuit is to enter an official career and have a prosperous official career. From then on, he can rewrite the destiny of his tribe and join the ranks of the powerful.

The woman's wish is to learn chess, calligraphy, calligraphy, painting, and nvren, and finally find a good son-in-law to help her parents' family.

Master Meng was well-known abroad, but he was nothing more than a white man.

If it weren't for the fact that the students were all princes and nobles, they would have a somewhat aristocratic attitude.

Otherwise, the Meng family would just be ordinary people.

It is reasonable for Meng Ziang to want to become an official.

Because only if he becomes an official can he completely change the fate of the entire Meng family. This is probably the ambition he has had since childhood, and it is also the responsibility he has shouldered.

In addition, he himself does have some real talents. In that situation, the only one who could be calm and calm in that situation was probably only the eldest brother, the heir whom his grandfather cultivated with all his heart, right?

Only when you have it yourself will you not fall into the trap easily.

Temptation has always been about taking advantage of people's desires.

No one will be seduced by what they already have and don’t need.

What's more, it was the temptation given by the prince. So the eldest brother was sober at the time, while Meng Ziang was deeply involved.

"Do I deserve death?"

Meng Ziang suddenly asked this question.

Bai Ming raised his eyes slightly, looked at Meng Ziang seriously, and said solemnly: "Everyone is not guilty of harboring the jade. They have taken a fancy to Mr. Meng's talent, and even if they don't induce him, they will intimidate him."

"Whether Mr. Meng chooses to help Zhou and be punished in the end, or he chooses to join in the evil deeds, and is eventually driven out and killed. From the moment Mr. Meng is noticed, the outcome is actually already doomed."

Meng Ziang smiled sarcastically: "If you say that, I won't let myself go."

Bai Ming shook his head slightly: "Mr. Meng misunderstood. I am not trying to explain Mr. Meng. I am just telling the truth."

"Even a prosperous family like the Bai Mansion collapsed overnight. It is impossible to guard against the evil plot, let alone the weak Meng family?"

Meng Ziangfu took another deep look at Bai Mingwei and continued: "Since then, I have often been in and out of the Prince's Mansion."

"The prince was extremely polite to me and even allowed me free access to the front hall and back garden."

"Once I discovered that the artificial lake in the Prince's Mansion was not well drained, causing the lake water to stink and green algae to overflow. I thanked the Prince for his kindness and wanted to help solve this problem."

"However, there were many remaining problems when the artificial lake was built, so I often stayed late in order to think of countermeasures as soon as possible."

"One day I met a strange person. I can't say why he was strange, but I just thought he was different, until he accidentally said a rong language."

Bai Ming frowned slightly again: "Rong Yu?"

Mencius nodded: "Ajun can speak Rong language. At that time, we were determined to kill all the people of Beiyan. The first blood had been oppressed and bullied for hundreds of years, so I asked him to teach me some things in private."

"I became suspicious at that time, but I didn't dare to pry into the prince's affairs, so I could only remain calm."

"Not long after, the prince came to me and said that Tangling wanted to use the hydrological characteristics of Tangling to benefit Dongling."

"He asked me to give him a detailed hydrographic map, and mark the places where docks, boats, and canals can be built for irrigation, as well as the places where embankments and dams need to be built."

"I didn't have any suspicion at first. It wasn't until I discovered that he paid special attention to areas that could cause catastrophe if the embankment burst that I realized the problem."

"Later I handed him a hydrographic map, but this hydrographic map was half-true and false. It was not accurate and was of no use in my hands."

Having said this, Meng Ziang was silent for a while before he continued:
  "I don't know if he saw that it was fake, or if it was just like I deliberately showed that it was my lack of ability that led to such a waste."

"Anyway, during the period when I was anxiously waiting for punishment, everything was calm; then, I competed with Qin Wenjin, and everyone knows what happened next..."

"My father was very puzzled when he saw that the prince and I were getting close, but were forced to come here by the Qin family. Until I told what happened, he made a quick decision and took our family to leave the capital."

"I proposed telling Prime Minister Bai about this matter, but Prime Minister Bai was not in the capital at the beginning, and the matter is so important. We have no tangible evidence and can't prove anything at all."

"No matter what we do, it's a dead end. This is why we didn't tell anyone at the beginning, just for fear of injuring others."

"My father cared about reputation, but he cared more about Dongling's safety. He always felt that this matter was by no means simple. It was related to Dongling's survival, but he was unable to do anything about it. After suffering from worry and hard work, he finally passed away with regret."

Speaking of this, Meng Ziang burst into tears.
