world wife

Chapter 184
"I was just a vagrant girl. Madam brought me in and became my husband's little daughter-in-law." Madam Mei smiled even more when she said this, "At that time, I and he both Small, and I got away with it because no one knew I actually saw everything."

"What did you see?" Zhao Lingyi stared at Mrs. Mei closely. He only remembered a very vague part of what happened back then, that is, the old lady hid the elder brother. He couldn't remember anything else, but he just remembered There was a big fire. As for why the fire started, he didn't believe that his elder brother set it on fire. According to his own investigation, he only knew that his mother was killed by someone back then, and he still hasn't investigated clearly about those killers.

Mrs. Mei turned her eyes to look at Zhao Lingyi, and smiled slightly

"Your father is the current emperor of Xiyun Kingdom." Mrs. Mei said with a slight smile.

Zhao Lingyi's complexion turned dark after listening to Mrs. Mei's words, but Mrs. Mei did not explain these things

"Do you know why Madam was killed that year?"

"Enough, I'm tired tonight, you go back and rest first." Zhao Lingyi didn't want to listen any more, and probably guessed what happened back then in his mind.

Huai Li looked at Mrs. Mei with anxiety in his eyes, and it was the same with what he investigated, so he hesitated for a long time and dared not tell Zhao Lingyi.

"It was the master who let those people in, because Madam was in his way, so he let those people kill Madam, but he didn't dare to kill you, for fear that he would not be able to explain to the Eighth Prince of Xi Yunguo who entrusted you to him back then." Madam did not get up and continued to talk.

"I don't want to listen anymore, you go out!" Zhao Lingyi's eyes were slightly red, and he looked at Mrs. Mei and reprimanded in a deep voice.

Mrs. Mei smiled gently

"Ling Yi, you are still so timid, and you were the same back then, so the old lady has always believed that you are the blood of the Zhao family."

Zhao Lingyi frowned, Madam Mei smiled
"So she told your brother that he killed his mother and forced him to commit suicide."

Zhao Lingyi's complexion was as dark as water

"Why should I trust you? For so many years, you have lived comfortably in Rongguo Mansion. Even though you know so much, you still enjoy everything in Rongguo Mansion comfortably. Why should I trust you?"

"Believe it or not, you already have an idea in your heart, Ling Yi, you married a smart lady, if it wasn't for her, maybe the Rongguo Mansion wouldn't fall apart so quickly. I originally thought about contacting the emperor of Xi Yunguo first and then deal with it This matter, but she has already helped me deal with it very neatly." Madam Mei smiled slowly, looking at Zhao Lingyi with extra gentle eyes.

"You mean, Mr. Zhao killed my biological mother, and the old lady killed my biological brother?" Zhao Lingyi looked at Mrs. Mei with eyes as cold as ice.

"Half right, half wrong." Mrs. Mei chuckled, "It was people from Xi Yunguo who killed Mrs. He is still alive today, but Mr. Zhao let those people come in and kill Mrs. That's all, and induced your brother to hang himself It was the old lady who started the fire, but it was the old lady who set the fire in the end." Madam Mei spoke slowly, each word clearly, and each word fell on Zhao Lingyi's heart.

"Why did you tell me now." Zhao Lingyi looked at Mrs. Mei and asked in a deep voice.

Mrs. Mei smiled, turned her head to look at Zhao Lingyi

"Because I don't want you to suffer." If you take these things to heart, it will only become heavier and more painful every day.

Zhao Lingyi skipped Mrs. Mei's gentle eyes, and didn't try to guess the meaning in her eyes

"I'll find out the rest. It's late at night, sister-in-law, go back and rest. If you come out like this, grandma must be in a hurry."

Mrs. Mei listened to the meaning of Zhao Lingyi's words and knew that he still didn't believe her, so she smiled lightly.

"Lingyi, Xiyu is a good child, but the people over there won't allow her to stay by your side, let her go." Seeing the pain in Zhao Lingyi's eyes, Mrs. Mei also had a look of loss in her eyes , turned and left the study.

The study suddenly fell into dead silence, and Huai Li didn't dare to speak, but just looked at Zhao Lingyi, his eyes full of worry.

"What she said isn't true, is it?" Zhao Lingyi asked. He couldn't believe that his father, who he had known for decades, was actually an enemy, while the grandmother who loved him was the one who killed his own brother. , I can live until now, but it makes one of them fearful, and the other has a wrong perception.

Huai Li felt that his palms were already sweating, but he couldn't lie
"Everything Mrs. Mei said is true." Huai Li lowered his head, not daring to look at Zhao Lingyi's expression.

Looking at Huai Li, Zhao Lingyi lifted the table angrily, but then sat down on the chair slumped in self-annoyance. Mrs. Mei was right, he was a coward, a coward who dared not even admit the facts.

"Go down, I want to be alone for a while." Zhao Lingyi ordered, but there was no anger in his tone.

Huai Li took a trembling look at Zhao Lingyi, and exited the study, but he didn't dare to leave too far, so he waited at the door of the study.

Zhao Ling stood up, took out a scroll from the round-bellied vase at the side, spread the scroll carefully, and looked at the smiling woman inside, her throat was slightly choked, this was the appearance of his mother in his memory, if someone came If you look carefully, you will see at a glance that this person is somewhat similar to Lian Xiyu's appearance.

Zhao Lingyi looked at this painting scroll all night, no one knew what he was thinking, until it was bright, he finally came out of the study, but his clothes had already been tidied up.

Huai Li watched Zhao Lingyi come out and rubbed his dry eyes

"Master, do you want to prepare breakfast?"

"No need, go to the half-acre garden." Zhao Lingyi said and walked forward, but before he had gone far, he saw someone coming to report back

"Master, something happened to the old lady." The visitor looked at Zhao Lingyi and said anxiously.

Zhao Lingyi frowned when he heard the girl's words, but then relaxed again
"Doctor, please go there. I have something to do now, so I will go there later."

The maid was stunned for a moment, watching Zhao Ling stepping away, and then hurried to the old lady's yard.

Lian Xiyu sat at the dining table, watched Zhao Lingyi's figure approaching from afar, and got up to give a blessing.

Zhao Lingyi just looked at Lian Xiyu like this, a little happy and a little worried, happy that she did not leave, but worried that she still had to leave.

"Breakfast is ready, let's eat together." Lian Xiyu smiled, she had already got what she wanted, and she could leave at any time when the Rongguo Mansion was over. More importantly, she did not It is inconvenient to come and go in and out of the General's Mansion casually. With that woman around, it is more convenient for her to take the secret path here.

Zhao Lingyi smiled lightly and nodded, and the two sat down to have breakfast as if nothing had happened.
