From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 982 Lead the snake out of the hole
She has a clue but is not sure, in order to verify whether what she thinks is right, she has to take action.

Zi Fu listened to the order, turned around and left. Soon, Yunying and Xiao Douzi both came in. I don't know when Xiao Douzi came. Mei Xin motioned them to sit down and said, "Have you eaten yet? The steamed stuffed bun made by Mrs. Li , Luo Qiu just brought it over, you two eat it."

Feeling sad and without any appetite, and not even thinking about eating at all, Mei Xin put the millet porridge in front of Xiaodouzi.

Speaking of Mrs. Li, I couldn't help but think of Yuan Muqiu. After learning of her death, he was also very, very sad. Yunying said: "Mrs. Su passed away suddenly, I will know that the major general is very sad, but I can't come back to life, so I ask the major general to express my condolences." .”

Seeing that her eyes were red as if she had cried just now, and she was haggard a lot overnight, Xiaodouzi put his hand on her arm and squeezed it tightly and said, "Major General, you must be fine."

After hearing the news of his death, he cried. You must know that Yuan Muqiu was very kind to him when he was in Yiyingtang. Every time he went to deliver food and food, he would go to see him specially.

In fact, it's not just him, every child in Yiyingtang has been taken care of by her, they all like her very much, they all have eaten the meals and snacks made by her, and they all remember her kindness to themselves one by one.

Nodding with a bitter smile, Mei Xin pretended to be safe and said: "It's okay, I'm fine, don't worry."

After finishing speaking, she changed the subject, looked at Yunying and said: "Although we still have no clue or news, we can't just wait like this. We have to do something more. Remember Cheng Sichu, She is in the dungeon of the East Palace, you go with Feichen, bring more people, tie her into the prison van and bring her here, I have something to ask her."

After she became Zhongliang, there were not many enemies, and there would not be many people who were so bold as to assassinate their family.Therefore, King Huai of Chu who has never captured his real body is counted as one, and if it is really him, then Cheng Sichu must know something.

Yunying frowned, but she didn't quite understand what she meant, and His Royal Highness Prince Cheng Sichu should have interrogated him before, and he would not say now if he didn't ask anything: "There is no place to detain or interrogate prisoners here, why don't the major generals go to Jingzhao Let’s go to the Yamen, there are instruments of torture for interrogation.”

Mei Xin had seen the torture tools in Jingzhao Yamen before, and felt that it was useless to Cheng Sichu, and she didn't have time to wait, so she shook her head and refused, "No, it's here, I have a way to deal with her. Xiaodouzi, go and help me prepare it." Something I need in a moment."

Nodding her head and agreeing to go over, Mei Xin told him that she needed something and then he got up and left.

Yunying got up, and Mei Xin also got up, and said: "If my guess is correct, someone will kill her as soon as Cheng Sichu shows up or save her. You must guard against archers. In addition, I will send secret guards to follow. Just in case."

Suddenly, no information about the identities of the assassins was found on the corpses of those assassins. Mei Xin was very uncertain, so she could only use this method to verify whether what she thought was right or wrong.

Yunying understood, she wanted to lure the snake out of the hole, and immediately said: "The general obeys, please rest assured, the general will definitely bring her here intact."

Mei Xin believed him, and let him go without saying a word.

After a while, Zifu saw that she had no intention of moving her chopsticks after sitting down, so she couldn't help but stepped forward to persuade: "The emperor and the prince were assassinated at the same time, and there will be a great commotion in the early court. There are so many assassins in the capital, courtiers and The people are all in panic. The emperor ordered the eldest princess to take over the capital and guard the capital. The responsibility is heavy. There must be many things to do in the follow-up. Besides, you didn't eat anything during the big wedding yesterday, and you have been busy all night. Eat a little, or the Duke and the two young masters will be worried when they find out."

Speaking of Cao Cao, when Cao Cao arrived, he saw Zongzheng Mingzhen coming in with a three-layer food box.

Zifu was the first to see him, and immediately called out respectfully, "Master Guo!"

Wen Sheng raised her head and stared at Mei Xin for a moment, she didn't expect him to come to deliver food so early, she forced a smile and said, "Are you here?"

Nodding "Yeah", he walked up to Mei Xin and sat down beside Mei Xin with soft eyes full of distress: "Mother is worried about you, she makes wontons early in the morning, thinking that you will feel better if you drink chicken soup all night, so I will It was delivered quickly."

The eye circles were as red and swollen as walnuts. He didn't need to think about it to know that she had cried, and she cried very sadly.

Chicken soup wontons are very delicious. Mei Xin had eaten them when she was pregnant with a child, and Magnolia had made them for her more than once, but it was two or three years since the last time she ate them, and she almost forgot what they tasted like.

As a bride, according to the rules and etiquette, she should get up early in the morning to serve tea to her mother-in-law, recognize relatives, and then take out the gifts she had prepared before, give them to them one by one, and return home three days later.

If you don't go to serve tea, you don't understand the rules. It's not right to ask your mother-in-law to cook chicken soup and wontons early in the morning. I feel very sorry. Mei Xin said apologetically: "I'm really sorry, I should make breakfast for my mother I……"

Opening the food box and bringing out wontons, snacks, and side dishes one by one, Zongzheng Mingzhen said softly: "The whole family doesn't say such things, the eldest sister and the others also know what happened last night, and they are very worried about you at home. You Lan'er and Shuo'er asked you where you were when you got up early in the morning."

Holding her hand sideways, Zongzheng Mingzhen looked down at her and asked softly, "Are you okay?"

She should have come out with her last night, but she was worried about the two children, so he had no choice but to stay at home and guard them.

At dawn, he received the news that he was going to come, but who knew that the two children went to bed early and woke up early, so he didn't dare to tell them that Yuan Muqiu had passed away. He could only coax them to wash and eat, and then handed them over to Yun Muqiu. Luo, he came to see her with the meal cooked by his mother.

An affectionate greeting made Mei Xin burst into tears, but she was used to forbearance, and she didn't want him to worry about herself, so she suppressed the urge to cry and shook her head, "It's okay, I..."

With a big hand hooking her into his arms, Zongzheng Mingzhen gently pressed her head on his shoulder and said, "Don't hold back, cry if you want, it will feel better when you cry."

Seeing Zifu retreating, she closed the door tactfully, and Zongzheng Mingzhen hugged her a little tighter.

Immediately, unable to bear it any longer, Mei Xin burst into tears.

Tisi was pouring down, and Zongzheng Mingzhen's heart was about to break when he heard her cry. He had never seen her cry so sadly, and he felt like a knife was cutting his heart one by one.
