From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 851

She doesn't like going around in circles, and Mei Xin also feels that there's no need to do this with Su Yuqing. She opened her mouth and leaned on the back of the chair and said wearily, "You probably didn't know it when you came back. My elder brother agreed to the draft this morning."

The news she just received before entering the door has not been fully digested yet, and she feels that there must be something happening that she does not know about. She is going to go to the palace for a while to ask and see what is going on.

Because the Mei family has a family rule that men can only accept concubines when they are forty and childless, and the crown prince Mei Jinze has never intended to draft, and she has refused without hesitation in the past two years. Suddenly she let go, and Su Yuqing was shocked and said: "His Royal Highness Didn't you always...why...agree?"

His eyes rolled wildly, and he couldn't help thinking about it in his heart. Thinking of his sister's recent actions, he suddenly tightened his throat and felt a shock in his heart.

Mei Xin saw the clues from his expression, and concluded that he was not ignorant of Su Miaoyi's affairs. She said in a deep voice, "There are three things that are unfilial, and there are no descendants. What's more, the courtiers have repeatedly reported, and my sister-in-law has been ill recently. It wouldn't be surprising to agree to the draft."

It must be that the sister-in-law did something that touched the bottom line of the elder brother, otherwise, even if he wanted to, he would never agree so quickly and change his mind in such a short period of time.

In the past, Mei Jinze was only the son of Prince Liang, the eldest son of Prince Liang's mansion, the young prince, naturally he had to abide by the family rules, and he could only take concubines if he was forty or childless.But it is different now, he is the crown prince, the heir apparent, and the future emperor, not to mention the 72nd concubine of the Sixth Court of Sangong should have a son.

Of course, the most important thing is that he has no siblings, and the emperor has only one son under his knees. If something happens to him, no one in the world will know who to pass it on to.Therefore, the courtiers' repeated performances are only to reassure the hearts of the people in the world, and to reassure their own hearts.

Thinking of this, Su Yuqing smiled embarrassingly and said: "That's true, the prince has been married for two years and it's time for a draft."

An ordinary man has three wives and four concubines, not to mention he is the crown prince of the East Palace. Besides, the crown princess is not unparalleled in the world. How could it be possible to spend her whole life with only her and one woman? Undoubtedly, this is too difficult for that man up.

Mei Xin became silent without saying a word, and the room was also silent for a while.

The sudden silence made the atmosphere a little tense and depressing. After a while, Su Yuqing coughed lightly twice and said, "You're going to get married in a few days. I wonder how the preparations for the wedding are going?"

The princess's marriage is handled by the Ministry of Etiquette, although he helps Mei Xin manage the property of the shop, but he has no right to intervene.

Xu Shi is used to seeing iron and blood go through death on the battlefield, Mei Xin doesn't have much feeling about the big wedding, and she doesn't look forward to it like others.She felt that this was a matter of course. She and Zongzheng Mingzhen had two sons, and they were in love with each other. Naturally, they were going to get married. As for how grand the day was, she didn't really care much.

Shaking her head to indicate that she didn't know, Mei Xin sat up straight and said: "The godmother is not feeling well, and she has been working hard for me all these years. I can't bear to see her troublesome again, so I didn't say some things in front of her. Brother Qing, although you and I are not Born to one mother, but these years I have always regarded you as my own brother, and Anzi and Miaoyi as my own younger siblings. To be honest, I wish you well, and hope that your life will be safe and smooth, free from disasters, and go well. "

If she could choose, she would never want to say the following words for the rest of her life, but people always have choices, and some things must be said, especially before it leads to a big mistake.

She was already feeling guilty, but when she saw her serious expression, Su Yuqing's heart beat faster.Plopping wildly, he asked nervously and nervously, "Why...why are you talking about this all of a sudden?"

Mei Xin, including the entire Mei family, is very clear about how they treat them, and everyone in the world sees them, and it has always been a good story.

Seeing his dodging eyes, Mei Xin felt mixed emotions, and suddenly felt sad for no reason.It's not that she has never seen rights and people's hearts, but she never thought that the people around her would change.

In fact, both Fang Pingsheng and Mei Linlang had reminded her, but she didn't take it seriously, and felt that no matter who changed in this world, the Su family would not change, and the godmother who cared for her in the previous life would not change.

"Brother Qing, do you remember that when we were young, we read a storybook together called Zhitoufeng? It was about a girl who was willing to be a concubine, and finally her family was ruined?" , It's just that Luoqiu likes to read storybooks since she was a child. They circulated them to each other, and she casually flipped through them when they sounded good.

The story is clichéd but thrilling. The girl was originally a daughter of a commoner's family, but she fell in love with the son of a rich family, and she was quite scheming, and finally got what she wanted.

There were many fights among the rich family, and the girl was even more greedy when she entered the back house. In the end, the authorities tried their best to take the lives of the whole family.

The shock in his heart was like a blow to the head, and the words "family ruin and death" pierced into his heart like a sharp knife, making him panic instantly.

She must have noticed it, must have known it, otherwise she would never have said such a thing.

What to do, what to do, what should I say now?
Eyes slightly narrowed, Mei Xin saw his expression fluctuate, and then said: "It's been many years, brother Qing thinks he forgot, how about me..."

"No, I haven't forgotten, the only thing I've read is how can I forget the book." Cold sweat broke out on Su Yuqing's back, subconsciously moved the stool and lowered his head.

Seeing him like this, he should understand, Mei Xin nodded and said with a long breath: "I heard Luo Qiu talking about it before, it seems like a lifetime ago, I really miss my childhood, we played together, Miao Yi followed me, then I don't know how happy I am."

Miao Yi is actually a very simple girl. She has always been well protected and cute, but she doesn't know when it changed.

Perhaps it is true as people say, love does not know where it comes from, but love is deep, the living can die, and the dead can live.

Su Yuqing also laughed when thinking of when she was a child, and said with relief: "Yes, I was so happy when I was a child. We played together every day, but when I grew up, I didn't have time to meet each other, and the time we spent together was even more limited."

Like the second brother, Su Yu'an, who runs on the sea all the year round, even as an elder brother, he rarely sees him a few times a year, let alone Mei Xin.So, it was really good when I was a child.

Nodding her head in agreement, Mei Xin said: "It's just the beginning now, and it will be even more difficult when we all become families. Everyone has their own affairs, and meeting each other may not bring back childhood happiness."

"Brother Qing, I hope that everyone will not change for the rest of their lives. They will still be the same as when they were young. I hope that one day when I am too old to walk, I can talk face-to-face with you and recall the past."
