From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 846
Mei Xin smiled lightly and wiped her sweat with a handkerchief, took two sips of the tea in his hand and said, "Slick tongue, smooth tongue!"

"You wronged me. What I said is the truth. If you don't believe me, ask Jingchen." Looking back at him solemnly, Yan Jingchen was having a headache, and felt that he was throwing a rock at his own foot, and it was a big loss.

Seeing him bowing his head and looking sullen, Mei Xin leaned forward and asked in a low voice curiously: "What's the matter with him, did he know what happened last night?"

Could it be that he blamed himself for meddling in his own business?

Hearing the sound, he turned around and smiled slightly, Zongzheng Mingzhen took the teacup in her hand and said: "Maybe you regret it, don't care about him, do you still want to practice?"

It took only an hour for a stick of incense to pass, so it was natural to practice, Mei Xin said: "Well, you can go have breakfast first if he is in a bad mood, I will go back after I finish practicing, don't wait for me."

After speaking, she left and returned to the center of the martial arts arena.

Zongzheng Mingzhen didn't want to leave, but thinking that his son was about to wake up, he promised to help them get dressed yesterday, so he called Yan Jingchen and went back first.

An hour later, Mei Xin had just finished practicing Kung Fu and Cardamom came, her complexion was very bad, as if she hadn't slept all night, she saluted as soon as she met her, "Young General!"

Since Cardamom is the most calm and calm person among the five of them, she won't get angry easily, and her emotions and anger have long been invisible. What's the matter, why did you come here so early in the morning?"

Usually, she would follow her eldest brother into the palace for the morning court, but in order to protect his safety, she would not leave easily.

Dougao got up and followed her into the room, knowing that she was going to wash her face, she went forward and twisted the veil immediately and said: "There is something that I don't know how to deal with, and I dare not tell His Royal Highness, so I came here to ask the Major General for instructions, and I also asked the Major General to show me .”

Handing over the handkerchief with both hands, she hesitated to speak.

Thinking it was about her and Fei Chen, Mei Xin waved her hands away from the left and right, and after washing her face, she pulled her to sit on the chair and said, "Although you and I are master and servant, we are like sisters. If there is anything embarrassing, just say , I will make the decision for you."

Changing the world and changing the surname, although she is a princess, she holds great power, and it is too easy to make decisions for her, it is all a matter of one sentence.

Dougao knew that she had misunderstood, and immediately said: "No, it's not about my minister, it's about County Lord Su. I wonder if she has visited the Princess Mansion recently?"

Su Miaoyi, the daughter of Yuan Muqiu, was named the county head two years ago.

I don't know why she suddenly mentioned Su Miaoyi, Mei Xin was slightly stunned and said: "I came here at the beginning of last month, I haven't seen her recently, but she just got engaged and can't walk around, she should embroider the dowry at home. What, what do you want?" What you said has something to do with her?"

The customs in the capital are different from those in Liangzhou, and as Su Yu'an's business grew bigger and bigger, it has now spread all over the capital, and Yuan Muqiu's family returned to Beijing half a year ago.

Because she is Mei Xin's godmother, the emperor and the prince have always remembered her kindness. When she entered Beijing, not only was she rewarded with the mansion and sealed the imperial order, but she was also given the freedom to enter and leave the palace gate at will.

The seven-rank official in front of the prime minister's door, not to mention the princess godmother who is treated with respect by the emperor and the prince, Yuan Muqiu is quite different from before, and has become a well-known noble lady in the Beijing circle.

"The major general doesn't know something. In the past month, County Lord Su has often been in and out of the East Palace. At first, he just brought some food to His Royal Highness. Later, he met the little princess. The little princess likes to play with her very much, and also likes to eat her cooking. All kinds of snacks, she often comes to accompany the little princess." Xiumei locked her hands tightly, and couldn't help thinking about when she got married.

It doesn't sound like a problem, but Mei Xin knows that things are not that simple, otherwise Cardamom wouldn't be frowning all the time.

Sure enough, Dou Kou breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "The prince often stays in the palace because of the busy state affairs. The princess was in a bad mood a while ago and didn't take care of the little princess like she used to. County Lord Su went to the East Palace to play with her every day. The little princess was young, and after the crown princess fell ill, she often cried and fussed. Two days ago, I didn't know whether it was because of the wind or eating badly, and she was vomiting and diarrhea..."

"Xiaobao is sick, why didn't I know?" Because the Mei family doesn't favor boys over girls, the little princess is also the heart of the emperor and the prince, the treasure in the palm, Mei Xin, the aunt, loves her very much, and specially took a baby for her. The nickname is Xiaobao.

Yun Luo came in before he had time to answer, and said immediately after hearing this: "It's the servant's fault. The servant did not report when he heard that he was cured. Please be punished by the Major General."

Blunting out in a daze, Mei Xin said again: "Okay?"

When did this happen? Why didn't she know anything.

Cardamom nodded, opened his mouth and said: "Young General, don't be in a hurry, be safe and don't be impatient, Rong Weichen is finished."

No matter what kind of illness it is, as long as it gets better, Mei Xinxin let go and signaled Yunluo to get up and said: "Okay, you continue to talk."

Yun Luo got up, and Dou Kou continued to say: "When the little princess got sick, His Royal Highness became anxious, and immediately called the imperial doctor to see a doctor, but the little princess was young, and the medicine was too bitter, so she kept drinking less and vomited more. The fever started. His Royal Highness was worried and stayed with him all night, because he had to go to the palace early in the morning, but fortunately the little princess got better the next day, and Princess Su coaxed her to drink some medicine, and she recovered yesterday."

Speaking of this, Dou Kou paused for a while, subconsciously glanced at Yun Luo, and lowered her voice on purpose, and said again: "Because the Crown Princess is ill, people in the East Palace are fluctuating, and His Royal Highness is busy with state affairs, so all matters in the inner court are left to you. The humble minister takes care of it, and the people below are talking about everything."

"At first, I didn't think much about it, and I didn't pay much attention to it. It wasn't until County Lord Su's handmaiden He Hua made a slip of the tongue yesterday that Weichen knew that the little princess' illness was related to County Lord Su, and he did it on purpose.

Mei Xin probably guessed what happened next, but she still couldn't believe it, after all Su Miaoyi was engaged to the third son of Wang Hanlin's family.

Seeing that she was doubtful and raised her robe and knelt down, Dou Kou said again: "I know that the Major General has always been grateful for Madam Su's care, and I have always turned a blind eye to some things in the past two years. I am afraid that I will be wronged." I found her, specially checked, and finally confirmed that she is the mastermind of this matter, and the purpose is to make the little princess unable to leave her, so that she can enter the East Palace and get closer to the crown prince."

Mei Xin was silent but her expression changed, and Yun Luoyin knew Su Miaoyi Xinyue all along and Mei Jinze was even more silent.

In fact, she had mentioned something about Yuan Muqiu at the beginning, and she also brought Su Miaoyi back to Liangzhou tactfully, but later on, the Mei family became the master of this country, and it was reasonable for her to return to Beijing as the daughter-in-law of the princess. among.

There is also Su Yu'an, although he is a businessman, he is Mei Xin's right-hand man. He has contributed a lot to this because the treasury has been empty these years. The emperor and the prince have always treated the Su family kindly, and the holy family is strong.
