Rebirth of Noble Menjiao

Mingyi suddenly remembered on her way back that she had heard when she was at Chu's house that Chu Zhiyu became "sick" ten years ago, probably after the Anxi Rebellion. What a coincidence.

What if Xue Lin sent back the incomplete monogram and Emperor Chongning recognized it, but for some reason, he did not accuse him, but for the sake of the safety of his family and country, what if he asked him to withdraw from the court and not be involved in political affairs?

The more Mingyi thought about it, the more she realized it was possible.

After hearing her question, the eldest princess's face clearly looked a bit off. Not only Mingyi, but even Li Fengjiao also noticed that there was really something going on in this?
The eldest princess sighed, and she did not hide it from them after all, "Speaking of which, Chu Zhiyu and the late empress grew up together as childhood sweethearts. Their families were family friends, and they even joked that they would get married, but later..."

The princess did not say the following words, but they were enough for Mingyi and Li Fengjiao to imagine. The two looked at each other and saw similar surprise and surprise in each other's eyes. That's it!
It was the hatred of seizing his wife! No wonder... no wonder...

"But haven't Mr. Chu and his wife always had a close relationship? If that's the case, it's a mistake, so why bother? Is it just because of the man's pride?" Li Fengjiao remembered that Chu Zhiyu had just asked about Emperor Chongning in the Fahua Temple. , that arrogant look, frowning.

"Yue Shunhua? She is the daughter of a minor official from out of town. At that time, not long after the late queen entered the palace, Chu Zhiyu hired this girl. I also heard that they were a loving couple. I was surprised until I saw her at a banquet. Her facial features are somewhat similar to those of the late empress..." The eldest princess said this, so there was no need to explain.

Mingyi frowned and said, "Shunhua...is the Prime Minister's wife's maiden name? I thought there was an English character in her maiden name!"

The eldest princess's face changed slightly, "Why do you think so?"

Mingyi didn't understand the eldest princess's reaction, but her intuition was that something was wrong. She stretched her body slightly, pursed her lips slightly and said, "I only heard it by chance that the prime minister called his wife 'Yingniang'..."

The look on the eldest princess's face changed several times, and she was very complicated. After a moment, she said quietly, "I don't know if Yue Shunhua has a nickname named Yingniang, but the first queen's nickname is indeed these two characters!"

Mingyi looked slightly calm. In her previous life, she really didn't care about these things. She only knew that her mother-in-law's surname was Yue. When she heard Chu Zhiyu call her Yingniang, she took it for granted that her maiden name was Yingniang, and never thought about anything else. possible. No wonder... At that time, she always felt that the relationship between her parents-in-law, who was rumored to be very affectionate, was a bit strange, especially when her father-in-law called her mother-in-law "Yingniang", her mother-in-law's face would always stiffen unconsciously. It turned out that... actually... Will it be like this?

Li Fengjiao was stunned for a moment, and then she couldn't help but said, "Mr. Chu...could he be crazy?"

The eldest princess sighed, "In this world, the word "love" is hard to understand. Once you have obsessions, you will inevitably go crazy."

"I didn't know before that I was envious of the Prime Minister's wife, and even thought that his family had a good family tradition, so she had thoughts of marrying Chu Yanqing..." Li Fengjiao thought about it, shook her head with a pale face in fear, and held on to Mingyi beside her. holding her hand and looking at her earnestly, "Thanks to Mingyi!"

Mingyi shook her head, raised her hand and patted the back of her hand, "This is the blessing that comes with your destiny. Maybe I'm here... just to prevent your bad luck."

To Li Fengjiao and the eldest princess, these words were just her humble words. Only Mingyi herself knew that every word was sincere and was what she felt in her heart at this moment.

"Now that I think about it, this Prime Minister's wife is also a pitiful person. She has lived her whole life as the shadow of others." Li Fengjiao sighed deeply.

is not that right? Mingyi's eyes flashed darkly. After coming out of the eldest princess's mansion, Mingyi got on the carriage. The calmness on her face broke instantly, and there were traces of unspeakable anxiety in her eyes. No one knew how scared she felt when she understood Wei Xuazhi's purpose of stirring up the Anxi rebellion. If you want to hold back An Xijun and Xue Lin, the best way is to have no more Xue Lin in the world.

And whether it was Beidi or Tubo, they would naturally be happy to see it happen. He wanted to defend Anxi, and the swords had no eyes on the battlefield... The more Mingyi thought about it, the more frightened she became. Her hands trembled uncontrollably, and she held them tightly. In one place, he pinched his palms to make the tremor lessen. No, he had experienced hundreds of battles and had waded out of the mountains of corpses and seas of blood. He had never seen any situation before, and he had fought through it one by one. , there is nothing he can't handle. It'll be okay, it'll be okay!

Although she thought so, the uneasiness in her heart still grew like wild weeds in spring. Speaking of which, she hadn't heard any news from Anxi in how many days?
It was late at night, and the Anxi Governor's Mansion was quiet. It looked no different from usual days, and it was not even as heavily guarded as when Beidi and Tubo besieged the city a few days ago. But after entering the inner courtyard, it was loose on the outside and tight on the inside. At this time, the lights were still on in the main room, and there were many secret guards in the courtyard, so water could not get in.

The candlelight was dim, and the room smelled of medicine and blood.

Xue Lin was half-lying on the couch. He had just drank a bowl of thick black concoction. He turned his head and vomited it out. Half a mouthful of blood came out from one mouthful of concoction. His arms were weak and rested on the edge of the couch, dripping. Blood.

Uncle Chen hurriedly stepped forward, unbuttoned his lapels, and looked at the wounds inside.

There was silence on the left and right, Li Zhi and Xue Tai stood on either side, both with solemn expressions.

Uncle Chen brought the medicine bowl over again. Xue Lin didn't need anyone to feed him. He half-stretched his body and drank the medicine. Within a moment, veins all over his body were so painful that he turned around and vomited it out again. This time he took it out. More blood.

He grasped the edge of the couch tightly with one hand and raised his eyes, but they were not very clear. After searching for a long time, he finally landed on Li Zhi and gasped, "Master, seal the news of my injury and let people stare at the two of them." Fang retreated his troops and defended the city..."

"Don't worry, your master doesn't know this yet? It's all been arranged!" Li Zhi frowned.

Xue Lin was already covered in cold sweat, and the veins on the hand holding the edge of the couch were bursting out, and he was shaking uncontrollably, "Send a message to Wangjing to bring the wife back! I'm afraid it's too late, too late... Wangjing... Wangjing is afraid... It’s a mess.”

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room was shocked, especially Li Zhi, "Why do you say that?"

"They wanted to hold back the Anxi Army, and they tried to kill me at all costs, even using poison, but Xiangnan was as quiet as ever, without any movement..." Xue Lin turned over, leaned back on the couch weakly, and continued intermittently. , but both Li Zhi and Xue Tai understood clearly, "Master, on the other side of Wangjing, you send a message and ask them to take out the eldest princess and Princess Changning as well!"

Li Zhi's expression changed drastically, and he turned around and strode away without saying a word.

Xue Lin didn't seem to notice his departure. He stared at the roof with half-open eyes, but his eyes were dim and became increasingly unclear.

"A Tai..." After a long time, he sighed quietly, "I just thought that there was chaos in Anxi, and I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to defend it, and that she would not be safe here, so I found an excuse to send her back to Wangjing, but who knows ...Who knew Wangjing was such a dangerous place? I regret it. If I had known this... I shouldn't have let her go to Wangjing. I am in this world. At least I will be in front of her before the knife is swung. But now, I am leaving. Being so far away...if she is in danger, how can I save her?"

Xue Tai's throat rolled slightly and he couldn't spit out even a single word.
