From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 201 Life and Death Deal
It's not that I can't see it, or that I'm stupid and can't figure it out, but that I don't want to believe it from the bottom of my heart.Knowing each other when they were young, she loved him when they were young, and she gave King Huai of Chu the best years of her life, and even gave birth to him a pair of sons and daughters.She didn't believe that he would abandon her, let alone say that he was seduced by her, designed by her, and he was innocent.

Unable to accept this fact, Shangguan Xinrou collapsed as soon as his legs gave way.Sitting slumped on the ground as if he had suffered a great blow, he shook his head and murmured anxiously: "No, it's impossible, you are lying, you are lying to me. Brother Yan loves me the most, and he loves me the most. Chu'er, he will never do this, he will never leave our mother and daughter alone."

The voice gradually grew louder, as if speaking for herself.Mei Xin smiled without saying a word, and said after a moment of silence: "Could it be that you know very well in your heart, and I don't bother to argue with you. You have been with King Huai of Chu for decades, and I believe you know him better than I do." What kind of person is he? Mother and daughter, you are not benevolent but I can't be unrighteous, I will give you a chance in return for your favor, as long as you answer me a question, I will let Cheng Sichu live."

"What's the problem?" Shangguan Xinrou was in a hurry because it was a matter of his daughter's life and death.However, as soon as the words came out of her mouth, she realized that something was wrong.

Judging from everything that Mei Xin has done after returning home, she is not a kind person, but judging from her attitude towards her little daughter yesterday, it can be said to be extremely disgusting.Since you want to put them to death, it cannot be changed overnight.The most important thing is that as long as the youngest daughter is alive, it will be a disgrace to the Mei family, a stain that will never be erased from Mei Zhannan, she cannot be so kind.

Feeling vigilant, Shangguan Xinrou looked at Mei Xin unkindly, stared at her firmly and said: "What the hell are you planning, I tell you, I..."

"It seems that you want to watch Cheng Sichu die?" Standing up and letting out a long sigh of relief, Mei Xin continued: "That's right, how can someone like you, who is even worse than a beast, care about other people's lives. That's all. , let her starve to death."

A tiger's poison does not eat its offspring, and Shangguan Xinrou can kill her many times since she was born, let alone Cheng Sichu, not to mention that she killed her with her own hands in the previous life.

What she said to Cheng Sichu was a deep love between mother and daughter, but it's just that the moment of life and death has not yet come.Just like King Huai of Chu, he can abandon her at any time. In fact, they are all the same person, and they can abandon anyone around them for their own selfishness.Ruthless, selfish, ruthless.

After saying that, Mei Xin turned around and walked out, but she was stopped by Shangguan Xinrou before taking two steps, and she only heard her say: "I can answer your question, but besides letting Chu'er live, I have to go back to Qinchun Court."

"There is nothing here, I don't want to stay here. I want to go back to Qinchun Garden, I want to take a bath, I want to eat."

Shangguan Xinrou has never been hungry, let alone locked up.Therefore, like Cheng Sichu, she couldn't take it anymore, she felt that she was going crazy, and wanted to go back to the yard where she lived.

The corner of her mouth raised and Mei Xin smiled, turned around and said very straightforwardly: "Yes, as long as you answer my question honestly, I can satisfy your request. On the contrary, if you dare to lie to me, I will make you a human pig Throw it in the latrine."

Knowing what a human being looks like, Shangguan Xinrou shuddered in fright, pretending to be calm and said: "Okay, you...you can ask!"

No matter what, go out first, as long as she leaves Fuqu Pavilion and returns to Qinchun Garden, she will have a way to live.

Stepping forward, she walked directly in front of Shangguan Xinrou, Mei Xin looked down at her and said, "You use my family's money to subsidize King Huai of Chu's private soldiers. I want to know where those private soldiers are now?"

Pupils constricted and she lowered her head suddenly, Shangguan Xinrou replied in horror: "I don't know what kind of private soldiers."

"You don't know? You don't know why you gave him money, and the amount was so huge that it almost emptied the entire Prince Liang's mansion." It's an exaggeration to say that it was evacuated, but there is indeed no money in the public account to spend.

Shangguan Xinrou didn't answer, and didn't make a sound, she sat quietly with her head down, as if she was thinking, but also seemed to be caught in a tangle.

Mei Xin was not in a hurry, she sat down on the stool again and said: "The queen mother is furious after the birth of mother and child. Do you think she can't help but the emperor can't stop this matter. Who will vent her anger on?"

"Also, King Huai of Chu was banned from the emperor's mansion, and he set off to fief the land as soon as the year passed. Do you think he will really take care of you? Take a step back, even if he wants to take care of you and is willing to take care of you, do you think he can take care of you? ? On the contrary, without my order, you can’t even get out of this Fuqu Pavilion, let alone Prince Liang’s Mansion. The soldiers in the mansion are all elites from our Mei family’s army, not to mention embroidered pillows like King Huai of Chu’s. Even the Imperial Forest Army can't break in. So, you'd better think about which is more important."

Looking up at Mei Xin, Shangguan Xinrou said, "Will you kill me?"

She hasn't lived enough, she's young, she doesn't want to die, she wants to live.Leaving Prince Liang's Mansion alive, meeting King Chu Huai alive, being with him alive, and entering King Chu Huai's mansion alive.

Unexpectedly, Mei Xin shook her head: "It's not worth bearing the name of killing your mother because of you, and I don't even need to do anything if I want your life, I just need to use my words."

"Don't worry, you are someone the emperor left for my father to deal with. I won't do anything before my father comes back. As for Cheng Sichu, it depends on your choice."

Thinking of her nominal husband, Shangguan Xinrou, she felt a little apprehensive. She hated Mei Zhannan, but was even more afraid of him. Otherwise, she would never have consummated the marriage with him and had a child.

After thinking about it, I thought of Cheng Sichu, and how she raised her when she was young.Yu Xin couldn't bear it and really didn't want her to die. Shangguan Xinrou struggled for a long time and finally made up his mind. He said with a look of death: "It is a serious crime to keep a private soldier. He is very cautious and didn't tell me where it is. But he I said that in order to prevent anyone from finding out, I deliberately found an uninhabited place, I think it should be in the mountains."

Seeing that Mei Xin didn't believe it, she immediately added: "He also said that he would train troops every day. Tens of thousands of people must be moving a lot. They won't be in the capital. I think it should be in his fief. There are all his people there, so it's not easy It can be found, and it is convenient to transport food without attracting anyone's attention."

I have known for a long time that he has a lot of private soldiers, but I didn't expect that there are already tens of thousands of people at this time.I have to say that his ambition is not small, and his courage is really great.

Mei Xin remained expressionless, her sharp eyes seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts.Shangguan Xinrou's scalp became numb from her stare, and then said: "I really only know this. He is very tight-lipped and talks very little."
