From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 702 It's Over Before It Begins

Originally, he wanted to respect Mei Xin's wishes and not embarrass her, so he just stayed by her side silently, but who knew that Mei Zhannan talked to him for a long time yesterday.The situation in the court was not hidden from him, and he already knew all about the Mei family's rebellion.

To be honest, he was not as surprised or shocked as he imagined. On the contrary, he thought it should have been reversed long ago.The Mei family guarded Liangzhou loyally for generations and suffered countless deaths and injuries. It can be said that the past dynasties have made great contributions, but what did they get in the end?

It was suspicion, unreasonable suspicion, Mei Xin's innocence ruined by the crown prince, and General Mei being forced into marriage again and being trampled on.Therefore, he is very supportive, and according to General Mei, his father has secretly purchased a large amount of medicinal materials and prepared a large amount of wound medicine.

The An family has practiced medicine for generations, and has received the favor of Mei Zhannan in Liangzhou all these years. In order to let them take root in Liangzhou and have food, he has bought medicines for the An family in large quantities more than once.The price is fair, and he has never been in arrears with silver taels. It is precisely because of his help to settle down that the current family fortune is achieved.

The grace of saving lives and protecting each other, the feelings of support, I am so grateful that I can't express it in words, and I can't repay him and follow him to the death.Especially now that the Mei family needs them, they have to spare no effort to buy and prepare medicines even at the risk of exterminating the nine clans.

Concubine Xiangui always hated her father and wanted to put her family to death. If Mei Zhannan hadn't been protecting them for many years, they would have died long ago.Therefore, in terms of emotion, reason and reality, they also have to help.The Mei family is their umbrella, if this umbrella is no longer there, they will be in trouble.

There is no doubt that the Meian family has been tied together and sat on the same boat.No matter how big the turmoil in the future is, they will all prosper and lose together.

He liked Mei Xin, knowing that she and Zongzheng Mingzhen would never be together for the rest of their lives, so he agreed to Mei Zhannan.Therefore, he changed his mind from that moment on, he would spare no effort to pursue her, win her heart, and let her marry him willingly.

Mei Xin is kind and soft-hearted, he believes that as long as he works hard, he will be able to touch her heart.Anyway, if you are close to the water, you will get the moon first, and love will come naturally after a long time.

After Luo Qiu's publicity, the mansion already knew all about it. Sanniang felt that he was very good and knew everything, so she nodded without hesitation and said, "OK, it's just that I'm not very good at talking. I'm afraid it's not good to say it, it's self-defeating, if it backfires after that time, don't blame me."

Right now, the major general's heart is already on Lord Zongzheng, and he might not be able to return for a while.However, he left without knowing the date of his return, maybe he will slowly forget it as time goes by.

An Qi just didn't care, because after he recognized Mei Xin, he suddenly realized that he was too unsteady and cared too much about Mei Xin's feelings.He should stand firm, no matter how much Mei Xin likes Zongzheng Mingzhen, he will not back down, just like fighting a battle to siege a city, he will not give up until he reaches his goal.

Waving her hands to indicate that she would never blame her, An Qi got up to help Mei Xin and gave her the medicine herself.

During this period, Bai Zhi kept looking at him in a daze, tears came out as she watched.I don't know why I cry, but I feel uncomfortable like a cat scratching.

As the sun set and the sun set, Mei Xin finally woke up after sleeping for three days and four nights.Looking at the familiar bed curtain, she was in a trance for a moment, but she recovered after a while.

I don't know when she got home and she wanted to sit up, but who knew that her whole body was limp and weak, as if she had run thousands of miles, and her exhausted and limp arms and legs didn't listen.

Luo Qiu and Nanny Sun were sitting by the bed and immersed themselves in their embroidery work, and they stopped immediately when they heard any noise.Looking up, she found that she was awake, and blurted out one by one in surprise: "Major General, Princess, you are awake."

They spoke in unison, as if they had made a deal, and after they finished speaking, the two quickly got up, one went to pour water, and the other went to the kitchen to serve food.

Dizzy, with no energy all over her body, Mei Xin raised her hand tiredly and touched her forehead, then asked listlessly: "What's wrong with me? Why do I feel sore? How long have I been asleep?"

It was like being crushed by the wheels of a car, and there was no place in his body that was not sore and limp.

Seeing that she didn't know anything, Luo Qiu poured a glass of water and gently helped her up and said, "I'm sick. The wind and cold entered my body and burned for three days, which frightened the general and the second lady. Doctor An's anxious mouth Doctor Han did not dare to go away, and the imperial doctor Zhou in the palace also came to check the pulse every day. Major general, drink water first, and I will tell you slowly after drinking water."

Mei Xin opened her mouth as she said, but she was very surprised in her heart, you must know that she has rarely been ill in the past two years, especially Fenghan had never visited her, and suddenly fell ill for some reason.After drinking the water and laying down again, Mei Xin said: "Where is my letter, didn't the general see it?"

Thinking about it, after reading Zongzheng Mingzhen's letter, I felt panicked and uncomfortable, and sat on the porch for a long time.She probably got sick from the cold wind, and she felt uncomfortable again.

Shaking his head, Luoqiu put down the teacup in his hand, then took off his shoes and climbed into the bed to take out the letter written by Zongzheng Mingzhen: "It's put away, the general doesn't know. But Doctor An knows, he didn't open it Look."

She opened it secretly and didn't write a few words, but she didn't know why the major general was sad.

Silently reaching out to take it, Mei Xin opened it and looked again, only to see that it was still written: "My heart is the same, I will not change it in this life, wait for me to come back!"

It is short and generous, but every word seems to weigh a thousand catties to Mei Xin.She could wait for him to come back, but what about after he came back?

This relationship was over before it even started, and their fate was already doomed.

If she had known this earlier, she shouldn't have agreed to him in the temple, let alone propose a one-year agreement.She can't do it, and he can't do it, so why bother to hurt others and yourself.

She had already made a decision in her heart, so as not to be affected in the future, Mei Xin closed her eyes in pain and said, "Take it and burn it, and return the jade pendant I asked you to put away to Mrs. Zongzheng Hou. Go back to the bridge, go back to the road, don’t report any news related to him, let’s stop here.”

What Dad said was right, long-term pain is worse than short-term pain, why bother to be entangled if we can't be together.Besides, it was because of my own greed that I lost my heart as if possessed by a demon.

Seeing a tear drop down the corner of Mei Xin's eyes, Luo Qiu couldn't bear it and said with distress: "It's just a letter, the major general doesn't want to..."

Mei Xin opened her eyes before she finished speaking, and said decisively: "If you don't see it, you are pure. Send all the things he gave me to the Zongzheng Hou Mansion. If the old lady doesn't accept it, I will take it all away. No, everything Hand it over to Ji Yun, let him exchange it for silver, and then add food to the children of Yiyingtang."

She cut the mess quickly, she didn't want to bother about this matter anymore, she had more important things to do next.
