From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 311
At that time, the matter of asking to leave the clan caused a lot of uproar in the city, and when Jianchun came, he had expected this situation.However, she did not turn around and leave like Yunluo, but kowtowed three times on the ground and said: "Old lady, please calm down. Concubine Rong was very worried when she heard that the old lady was ill, so she specially sent her slaves to visit. Your Majesty I don't ask the old lady to forgive me, but I only ask the old lady to cherish herself and live a long life."

After finishing speaking, he kowtowed three times to Mrs. Mei again.

Smiling back in anger, Mrs. Mei forced herself to get off the ground on crutches.Seeing her standing up wobbly and trembling, Lin was afraid that she would fall down, so she quickly got up and helped her without thinking.

Mrs. Mei was so angry that she threw off her hand and rushed to Jianchun, pointing at her and scolding: "The imperial concubine, the imperial concubine Rong, is the same as the deputy queen but not the queen. After all, she is just a concubine, a superior It's a nonsense thing. When she asked her to leave her family and abandon her name and parents, Lin Lang of my Mei family died, and my daughter died. Get out, get out of here, and you will never be allowed to enter my Mei house again. From now on, even if I die, I will not allow her to shed a single tear or cry. Get lost!"

With a roar, he raised the crutch in his hand and hit Jianchun hard on the back.

Jianchun didn't hide from it, but Mrs. Mei almost exhausted all of her strength because of her anger.With a bang, the crutches were released from his hand, Jianchun groaned and kowtowed again, then fell on the ground and said: "Lady take care, servants leave!"

Enduring the severe pain and controlling his involuntarily trembling body, Jianchun got up from the ground and bowed back.

Before reaching the door of the outer room, she heard Mrs. Mei's crying like killing a pig, she cried out in tears, "Emperor Empress Dowager Bodhisattva, what evil have I done, what evil have I done?" .”

Beating his chest, stomping his feet and crying, his heart was broken, and Jianchun felt uncomfortable hearing the shrill voice.Without staying any longer, she opened the cotton curtain and went out.

Yun Luo stayed outside the whole time, seeing her coming out, she came forward and said, "Are you all right?"

Squeezing out a smile, Jianchun shook his head lightly, wanting to say that he was fine, but his nose was sore and he couldn't help but burst into tears.Turning her head to look aside, she said: "I know the hatred in the old lady's heart, and the empress knows it too. I shouldn't have come to see you today, but the empress is still worried. After all, mother and daughter, no matter how much you hate, you will be annoyed again." A broken bone is always connected to a tendon. It’s just that there’s no going back.”

For more than ten years, she has never cared about her daughter's life in the palace other than blaming and complaining.Just like when Mei Linlang was a child, apart from saying that she was restless all the time like a wild boy, she never cared about her thoughts.If she had been carefully educated back then, maybe there would not be such a thing as asking herself to leave the clan.

However, who is to blame, the road is chosen by oneself, and the bitter wine brewed by oneself is ultimately drunk by oneself.Back then she insisted on going her own way, but now it is normal for the old lady to behave like this.

Seeing the desolation and sadness she said with tears like rain, Yun Luo opened his mouth to persuade him: "Since you know you can't go back, don't think about it anymore. The Major General is already waiting at Qingzhixie, so follow me."

Turning around and looking back, Yunluo walked forward first, Jianchun thought about it too, wiped the tears from his cheeks and followed.

Qing Zhixie Zhongmei Xin had already finished her lunch, when she learned that Jianchun was beaten by the old lady, she hurriedly asked Luoqiu to get the wound medicine.Not long after Jianchun arrived, Luoqiu asked her to change her clothes and apply medicine before leading her into the Nuan Pavilion.

A few foxtail lilies are placed in the warm pavilion, and the faint fragrance makes people relax for no reason.As soon as Jianchun entered, he saw Mei Xin, without further ado, he knelt down and saluted and said, "My maidservant greets Miss, Miss..."

Before she finished speaking, Mei Xin bent down to help her up and said, "You're so polite, let's sit down and talk."

Pulling her to sit down on the chair, Bai Zhi immediately served tea and pastries.Mei Xin said: "The road is slippery in snowy days, please take this trip, this is ginger tea to drive away the cold, you can drink a bowl."

Standing up to salute again, Mei Xin motioned her to sit down and said, "I'm a general and don't pay much attention to those formalities, so sit down and drink tea at ease. It's cold, and it's time for dinner now, why don't you eat some pastries first?" Take it easy, let's talk again."

After saying that, Mei Xin directly picked up the ginger tea and handed it to her.

Jianchun was grateful and felt that she was very considerate, but his eyes were moist but he didn't stand up to thank her again.Quietly drank tea and had a few snacks, and while wiping her hands, Mei Xin said again: "Grandmother is getting older, her temper has become more left-handed in the past two years, she also talks and acts like a child, don't be surprised. Don't tell Auntie when you go back, Auntie is still ill and can't get angry, if you don't listen to these unpleasant words, don't listen."

In fact, she could somewhat understand the hatred in the old lady's heart. She hated that iron could not be made into steel, and hated that the good young lady in Prince Liang's mansion wanted to enter the palace as a concubine instead of being a good lady.

Jianchun burst into tears when she heard the word "aunt". She never thought that Mei Xin would recognize them. She said in disbelief: "Your Majesty invited her out of her family and she is no longer from the Mei family. Miss... Miss..."

With a lump in his throat, Jianchun finally couldn't help crying.

Knowing why she was so excited and sobbing, Mei Xin said with some helplessness and distress: "Being out of the clan is just a formality. Is it true that the Mei family cares not about the name. My aunt has been in Luomei Palace for eight years, and she has never taken a step. I'm afraid that he committed suicide by taking poison that day either for my father or for me."

At first she couldn't figure it out, she wasn't sure, but the moment Jianchun saluted her, she understood.The daughters of the Mei family are naturally proud, and would rather die standing than live on their knees. If my aunt really wanted to die, she would have died eight years ago, so why wait until today.Therefore, there must be a reason for this, and this reason must be related to the Mei family.

Apart from her being ruined by the prince, the Mei family’s innocence was ruined, and her father was jealous of the emperor, and her aunt suddenly opened the door to perform in front of the emperor. It was nothing more than these two reasons.

Jianchun stood aside when the emperor praised Mei Xin's intelligence in front of Mei Linlang, but she never thought that she would think so deeply at such a young age and guess so accurately.Nodding his head, Jianchun held back his tears and said, "Miss's guess is right, but that's not all. The cause is still a dream, a dream that seems to be a warning from heaven to the Mei family."

Frowning slightly in surprise, Mei Xin opened her mouth and asked, "Dream, what dream?"

Jianchun didn't answer right away, but turned to look at Yunluo who was standing in the room and didn't go out.

Mei Xin understood immediately and said: "Yun Luo is a sister who grew up with me and followed me through life and death, so don't worry, just be honest."

Jianchun, who had followed Mei Linlang on the battlefield, understood the love for robes and felt relieved.Immediately said: "One night last month, the empress had a nightmare..."

　Mei Linlang just had a dream, not rebirth.
