From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 182

Reaching out his hand quickly, he found the greeting card from Duke Lu's mansion from a pile of greeting cards. Mei Zhongkai opened it and handed it to Mei Xin, saying, "Mrs. I came to the greeting card and said that I would come to visit my sister. I thought that my sister had no time to return directly, but who would have thought that she handed in the greeting card again this morning. Eldest sister, Duke Lu’s mansion is the grandparent’s house of elder brother , if I refuse again, I'm afraid it will be bad."

Mei Zhannan's original wife was the eldest daughter of Duke Lu's mansion. Although the Lu family was dead, they still attached great importance to Mei Jinze, the nephew of the Lu family.Ai Wu and Wu, they also love Mei Xin very much, and every year they will send her a share of the New Year's gift to Liangzhou, and the gift is not light.

People's hearts are fleshy, not to mention that the Lu family's love for her is not a day or two, but it has been more than ten years since she came to Liangzhou.It is not an easy task to be like a day for more than ten years, but obviously the Lu family has never forgotten her, let alone treated her badly.

Even though she clearly knew that they would be nice to her because of her eldest brother, it was still impressive. On the other hand, her real grandparents, Shangguan's family, grew up so old, let alone a New Year's gift, she had never seen them before .

Not only did she not receive anything from them, every year Shangguan Xinrou asked her to give her a gift.And they are all valuable gifts, and every elder in the Shangguan family should have them.

There is no harm without comparison, therefore, in her previous life, Mei Xin was closer to members of the Lu family than to members of the Shangguan family.Knowing the scandalous things Shangguan Xinrou did in this life, she doesn't plan to associate with Shangguan's family.So, after receiving the post from Mei Zhongkai, she said with some confusion: "Although the news of my pregnancy has not yet spread, Mei Xiao is already dead. I am a widow now, and my husband is newly bereaved. In two days I'm afraid it's inappropriate to visit Lu's house. You have someone tell your aunt about this, if she doesn't mind, invite her to visit after three days."

She is a junior, so she is supposed to visit Duke Lu's mansion, but the widow is unlucky and she is newly mourned, so it is not easy to visit other people's houses, and she is afraid that people will think too much.

Speaking of the new funeral, Mei Zhongkai reminded: "Since it is a new funeral, should the family..."

Knowing what he was going to say, Mei Xin interrupted directly: "I'm not a man in Prince Liang's mansion. When my wife dies, I have to hang a white cloth. I'm a married woman. It's bad luck to go back to my mother's house at this time. If I dare to wear mourning at home, what's the point?" what."

Sometimes it’s ridiculous to think about it. She didn’t experience the love of a young man, didn’t wear a wedding dress, didn’t experience the joy of being married to a wife, and she didn’t even touch a man’s hand. She became a widow in the blink of an eye.Moreover, the most ridiculous thing is that she is still dominating her mother's family. Thinking about it, she herself finds it unbelievable and unbelievable.

Although Mei Zhongkai was sensible, but he was young, and Mei Xin was not a woman at all in his heart, so he didn't think about it that much.Smiling slightly, she sat down on the chair and said, "What my sister said is true, I was the one who didn't think about it."

Smiling without saying a word, Mei Xin picked up a bronzing post and looked at it. Seeing that it was sent by the Crown Princess Qiu Yuwei again, she said with some emotion: "Spangled flowers are charming eyes, power and wealth can really distract people's minds. In the past She is also arrogant and arrogant, now... hum..."

With a sneer, he threw aside the greeting card from the Prince's Mansion, and Mei Xin picked up another plum blossom card to look at and said, "Censor Zhongcheng, it really is the eldest princess's name, it's only half a day's work, and Yushi Zhongcheng's Madam has sent me a post."

Sitting down depressed, Mei Xin felt a little irritated, she was never a social person, but she couldn't see these people.The capital city is no better than Liangzhou. Human relations, conflicts of interest, and alliances all require the female relatives to move around frequently.If she wanted to inquire about the news of various prefectures, she had to go through these ladies, but she was really impatient with these women.

There were so many posts that Mei Zhongkai didn't read them one by one. When he heard that Mrs. Yu Shi Zhongcheng had posted all the posts, he hurriedly picked them up and looked at them, saying: "This is strange, who doesn't know that Mrs. Yu Shi Zhongcheng doesn't like to socialize. I seldom attend banquets usually. My sister will post a post to my sister just after she comes back, I'm afraid there is something strange about it."

"What's strange, what's strange? It's just grass on the wall, blowing one way and falling the other. Seeing that the emperor has become suspicious of the Mei family, they have launched impeachments. Now that the wind direction is not right, the emperor named me the eldest princess of the country and they all went one by one. It’s changed. Literary integrity, it’s just a joke.” I really don’t like Yushi Meixin at all, and they all say that if Wen dies to remonstrate, and Wu dies to fight, if the Prince of Liang’s mansion really did something outrageous, it should be impeached.But it's obvious that they have done nothing to make a big contribution, and the trivial matters of sesame and garlic are infinitely magnified in their mouths, which is really enough.

Mei Zhongkai is a scholar, so he naturally knows the integrity of a scholar, but there are many scholars in this world, but not all of them are the same.Therefore, I couldn't refute it, and said lightly: "My eldest sister didn't know this censor Zhongcheng Wei Lord when she first came back to the capital. Not forgiving. It is said that there is no one from the emperor to the officials who is not afraid that he will not bother him. Therefore, he generally does not interact with others, and Mrs. Wei seldom goes out to socialize."

Frowning slightly in surprise, Mei Xin said with a oh: "There is such a person, it seems that he is a person who tells the truth and does practical things."

"Yes, otherwise, the emperor would have given up his official position because of his ability to choke people to death, because he told the truth and did practical things, and the emperor has relied on him very much in the past two years. Therefore, how many people are rushing to curry favor with him now? I can’t flatter you.” The censor and supervisory officials, just reading a book is enough to drink a pot.Therefore, many people had no choice but to find ways to befriend him even though they bothered him and wanted to kill him.

Helpless, he is a master who doesn't give in to oil and salt. He uses all threats and temptations, and he can drive you to death if he doesn't say anything.

Reaching out to take the post in Mei Zhongkai's hand, Mei Xin looked at it and thought for a while before saying, "Is he included in the imperial history of the impeachment of Prince Liang's Mansion?"

Mei Zhongkai didn't know about this, so he shook his head gently and said: "Based on what I know about him, he won't impeach him casually without any real evidence, and as long as he impeaches the emperor, he will order a thorough investigation. The emperor didn't move, I don’t think there is him here. Oh, I suddenly remembered something, his wife seems to be from Liangzhou.”

Putting down the post in her hand with a face full of surprise, Mei Xin blurted out and asked, "Liangzhou?"

I don't remember who I heard it from. Mei Zhongkai thought about it carefully and said with some uncertainty: "Well, it's Liangzhou. It seems that I went back to my hometown to visit relatives not long ago. Big sister, did Mrs. Wei meet you in Liangzhou? Otherwise, why would I post you for no reason?"
