Chapter 394 The Last Hope (6)
Xiao Mingyu didn't expect Xiao Mingxuan to be so free and easy.Xiao Mingyu shook his head and smiled, "Fourth Sister, things are not that simple. In the past, there was only icing on the cake, not instant charcoal. Besides, after our Xiao family lost the mine, do you think other aristocratic families in Zhongzhou City will let this snipe go?" Is it a good opportunity for our Xiao family? In the future, other businesses and mines of the Xiao family will be affected to varying degrees. When the Xiao family's business has no turnover of money, those cooperative businesses will not give the Xiao family face. They will take the opportunity to attack and divide up the remaining property of the Xiao family. In this way, the Xiao family will really fall."

Xiao Mingxuan frowned, "What you said is right, I thought it was too simple. For the Xiao family, what happened this time was not just the loss of two mines, but the loss of the trust of the palace, which gave the crowd an opportunity to attack. an excuse and a target."

"Exactly. Fourth sister, no matter what, as a member of the Xiao family, we will do what we should do. Even if we can't change the result in the end, at least we have a clear conscience, and no one can blame our fifth family." Xiao Mingyu said firmly, That's what she planned from the beginning to the end.

"Ming Yu, I understand what you mean, and I will cooperate with you. But you can't go out."

"Don't worry, I'm afraid I won't have a chance to go out." Princess Fan might not agree to meet her.Even if you see her, it may be when the dust has settled.Although the hope was very slim, Xiao Mingyu still made this request to Princess Qinghe for the sake of that tiny bit of hope.

That day Xiao Mingyu slept deeply, but when he woke up the next morning, the sun was already high.The girl Manchun came in to report, saying that Xiao Mingzhen had been here for a while.Xiao Mingyu hurriedly got up to wash up, used a little pastry, and then went out to see Xiao Mingzhen.

Xiao Mingzhen first looked Xiao Mingyu from head to toe, "Sister Mingyu, seeing that you have a full beard, I feel relieved."

"Thank you, third brother, for your concern. I don't know how the situation is when third brother went to Lu's house before?" Xiao Mingyu didn't talk nonsense, and asked the main point directly.

Xiao Mingzhen frowned and sighed, "It's not good. The Lu family has made their position clear and will not participate in this matter."

Xiao Mingyu thought it was true.The palace has expressed its attitude, and the Lu family naturally chose to stand on the side of the palace.The Lu family didn't take the opportunity to add insult to injury, it was considered benevolent and righteous.

Xiao Mingyu asked: "Brother Minghui is still in prison, doesn't the Lu family care?"

Xiao Mingzhen smiled wryly, "The Lu family said that the government will not embarrass elder brother, so let me rest assured. They also sent a mother-in-law to take care of sister-in-law, so that sister-in-law can raise her baby with peace of mind."

"Is that so?" Xiao Mingyu also sighed, not knowing what to say other than sighing.

Xiao Mingzhen asked: "Sister Mingyu, do you know what happened yesterday?"

Xiao Mingyu nodded, "It was Zhou Rong who colluded with bandits to kidnap me. The palace already knew about it. I met Princess Qinghe yesterday. The princess also found out that this matter was ordered by the prince, and no one can change the prince's decision. As for the Sima family, the Song family, and the Fan family, they are just opportunistic and seeking benefits for their own family. In addition, I am from Qinghe county. The Lord confirmed that the Second Household of the Dong Mansion was indeed connected with the Fan family and betrayed the Xiao family. As for the Zhang family, maybe we will get news today that Zhang Fengyun came forward to ask His Royal Highness. His Royal Highness has already agreed to keep the Zhang family. As for the Zhang family, they cannot participate in the affairs of our Xiao family. The Zhang family will take the opportunity to draw a clear line with our Xiao family. The situation is very bad, and the Xiao family can no longer stop the development of the matter. They went out. The only thing we can ask now is that the palace should not be wiped out, and at least give the Xiao family a way to survive."

Xiao Mingzhen's face was pale, "Did Your Highness tell us what we should do?"

Xiao Mingyu shook her head, "Princess Qinghe can't be the master. All she can do is to help us pass the message. I have already begged Princess Qinghe to pass the message to the princess, and hope that the princess can give our Xiao family a chance to meet me. But I have not done this. I'm not sure at all. I don't know what the princess' position is, and I don't know what the princess's attitude is towards our Xiao family."

Xiao Mingzhen's face was ugly, as if mourning his concubine, "The Xiao family is hopeless, is it?"

"The Xiao family must be prepared for cutting and bloodletting." Xiao Mingyu said affirmatively.

"How much meat can be cut from the Xiao family, and how much blood can be released. Are they trying to force the Xiao family to death? Why are they targeting the Xiao family? There are so many great families in Zhongzhou, who is not good to move the palace, why should they move our Xiao family?" Fundamentally." Xiao Mingzhen became excited, and his heart was filled with anger. "Everyone is falling into trouble, and everyone is breaking their promises. What I said in the past was beautiful, and this will be so ironic."

Xiao Mingyu's expression was calm, without the slightest fluctuation, "The Xiao family has become the first bird, so naturally it will be attacked by the Wangfu. The Wangfu can no longer tolerate the current situation, especially the hedging of the aristocratic family. Our Xiao family took the lead and won There are a lot of benefits, and now is the time to spit out all that we have gained in the past. The purpose of the Wangfu to make an example to the monkeys is to tell everyone that betting on both ends of the first mouse will end up with the fate of our Xiao family."

Xiao Mingzhen's hands were shaking, "Is it because of this reason?"

"Yes, I can already confirm that it is because of this reason. The previous speculation that the palace covets the Xiao family's mine and wants to get money is our guess." Xiao Mingyu was neither sad nor happy.The matter has developed to this situation, and neither sorrow nor happiness can solve the matter.The only thing to do is to face everything calmly.

"Then what can we do now? Besides waiting for the final result, Ming Yu, tell me, what else can we do?" Xiao Mingzhen couldn't calm down, it hit him too hard.

Xiao Mingyu said: "According to the original plan, first fish out the person. The next thing to do is to ask the old man to find a way, and we can step aside. The other thing is the betrayal of the Dongfu. We must do it." What. My uncle has come out of Qingyun Temple, third brother, you go to see my uncle. Since Zhang Shiqian has given up on our Xiao family, then our Xiao family must find a way to save ourselves. , now it is best to draw the uncle into these matters."

Xiao Mingzhen frowned slightly, thought about the key point, and said: "You are right, no matter how the outside world changes, what we have to do is to get people out first. Zhang Shiqian gave up the Xiao family and let them go. Our Xiao family also I don't care about the Zhang family. As for the East Mansion, I'll go right away. If Zhang Shiqian doesn't come forward, my mother will definitely have something to say. But if my uncle comes forward, my mother's mouth will definitely be silenced. Ming Yu, you worked hard yesterday You were killed, and you were kidnapped. Time is limited now, and I will come to visit you another day. Take good care of your health, and I will remember everything you have done to the Xiao family. "
