Chapter one hundred and sixty-ninth farewell
"No." Li Xia interrupted Guo Sheng, "Uncle knows? Where is dad?"
"I haven't told Magistrate Li yet. I thought, he knows, that is, he knows that your majesty is timid and cautious. It would be better to wait until the dust has settled before telling him." Guo Sheng first explained that he had not told Magistrate Li about this matter.
Li Xia hummed, she also meant the same thing. At this moment, it would be better for my father not to know than to know.
"Xu Dalang was upset and went out shopping." Guo Sheng continued to say about Xu Huan, "Xu Dalang is a rare understanding person. He can understand immediately with a little guidance."
Li Xia hummed again, lowered his head and began to write.
Guo Sheng looked at her, hesitated for a moment, and asked in a low voice: "Is the uncle's uncle okay?"
"I don't know." Li Xia answered casually without raising his head or even pausing while tracing the words in his hand.
Guo Sheng looked at her hand that was tracing words smoothly and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the uncle of the uncle's house was at least fine, so that was good.
……………………
In the capital city, the May wind carries a biting chill and a strong smell of blood.
Behind the Dali Temple, in the gloomy dungeon, Li Wenshan, the eldest son of the Yongning Mansion, and Li Wenlin, the third eldest son, each carried a food box and followed the jailer. With their legs and feet dangling, they moved down the slippery stone steps step by step.
Go through a dark, long corridor.
In front, a torch was inserted into the crack of the stone. The fire burned like a will-o'-the-wisp, illuminating the prisoners in brocade robes one by one on the ground.
The jailer opened the iron door with a clang. Li Wenshan and Li Wenlin stood close to each other, standing behind the jailer, looking straight at Ming Shangshu and Ming eldest son who were sitting on the ground.
Hearing the noise, Ming Shangshu looked up and saw that the jailer had already unlocked and pushed open the iron door, "Half a quarter of an hour, don't waste more time, this is against the ban!"
"Ming Shibo." Li Wenshan shook his legs and moved into the iron gate. He looked at the dejected Ming Shangshu, his lips trembled a few times, and tears fell in clusters.
"Da Lang." Li Wenlin followed closely, squatting next to Mr. Ming, and put his hand on Mr. Ming's shoulder, with tears on his face.
Mr. Ming looked at him and wanted to laugh, but tears flowed down his face.
"You're here... why are you here? How could you come here? You shouldn't have come." Ming Shangshu looked at Li Wenshan, and then at Li Wenlin, who was crying face to face with his son, "My case is not
Fraud, you shouldn't have come, you and Wenlin...does your mother-in-law know?"
"Aniang knows, Aniang said... I know what Shibo means, Aniang also told me, Aniang said that if my father was at home, he would come, and there is also the fifth brother. It was the fifth brother who begged Qin
Your Majesty... my third brother and I... came to give you and Dalang a treat... I brought you wine and food, and you... said it would be tomorrow... tomorrow..." Li Wenshan couldn't say a word, and her tears kept flowing.
This was the first time that he had experienced the tragedy of his family being destroyed and his head falling to the ground in the blink of an eye.
While Li Wenshan was crying, he opened the food box, put the food and wine in the food box on the ground, poured the wine, handed one cup to Minister Ming, and handed another cup to Master Ming.
Ming Shangshu took the wine, raised it to Li Wenshan, and drank it in. "Thank you, nephew. Go back and thank your mother for me. When I see your father in the future, tell him that if there is an afterlife, Ming is willing to be with you."
He will make another brother."
"Yes, I have written it all down." Li Wenshan burst into tears and kept nodding. He took the cup from Ming Shangshu and was about to pour another drink when he suddenly remembered and said hurriedly: "Fifth brother has something to say,
Let me pass it on to you, fifth brother said: I heard that the emperor almost couldn’t survive the minor illness he suffered from a few years ago. It was said that you... deceived the emperor into becoming seriously ill..."
Ming Shangshu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly punched the ground with a heavy fist, "So...that's it, I was careless, and she got into trouble! I harmed the prince...I was careless!"
Li Wenshan looked at Ming Shangshu, who was instantly angry, annoyed, and heartbroken. He was so stunned that he couldn't even shed tears.
Ming Shangshu let out several sad laments and sighs. Looking at Li Wenshan who looked blank, he reached out and patted his shoulder, "Thank you for me, Fifth Brother. Fifth Brother... I am very happy that the Li family is expected to prosper."
, I am very happy for your father, okay, this is good."
Li Wenshan's tears fell again in clusters. He lowered his head and poured another glass of wine. Before he could lift it up, Ming Shangshu reached for it and drank. He stared at him for a moment, and suddenly reached out and touched a small folded square from his arms.
After winning, he quickly stuffed it into Li Wenshan's hand and leaned forward. Li Wenshan whispered in his ear: "Give this to Fifth Brother. Don't look at it. Give it to Fifth Brother. Just say, give him all these."
Yes, I know I have nothing to ask for."
No matter how hard Li Wenshan understood the meaning of these words, he hurriedly put Fang Sheng into his purse.
Ming Shangshu sat back and let out a long sigh, "I was just hoping against hope, but I didn't expect... The Li family in Xiali Town has inherited the Renyi family, and it turned out to be the case. Let's go, if there is an afterlife... let's go."
Outside, the heavy footsteps of the jailer gradually approached, and Ming Shangshu waved his hand to signal Li Wenshan and Li Wenlin.
The two stood up, took half a step back, knelt down on the ground, kowtowed a few times to Master Ming, turned around slightly, and kowtowed a few more times to Master Ming.
The Minister of the Ming Dynasty and the Grand Master of the Ming Dynasty sat upright and received the ceremony. This was regarded as a living sacrifice.
……………………
Li Wenshan held the piece of Fang Sheng, which was only the size of a copper coin, and stayed for a long time. He lowered his head and stuffed it into his purse, walked out of the palace and went straight to Prince Qin's palace.
In the study room of Prince Qin's Mansion, Prince Qin looked very relaxed and sat behind the long desk. He turned over and over and looked at the little Fang Sheng that Li Wenshan handed him. After looking at it for a long time, he raised his hand and handed Fang Sheng to Lu Yi, "Look
Look, this thing is folded very delicately."
Lu Yi took it, turned it over and over for a few times, handed it to King Qin again, and said with a smile: "It's really exquisite. Look at Fang Sheng. Ming Shangshu died calmly."
King Qin took it and slowly opened it. He looked at the neat and beautiful lines of small regular script on the paper. He slowly read them line by line. He raised his hand and handed the paper to Jin Zhuoyan, but his eyes fell on the expression on the armchair.
Li Wenshan was depressed and just drank tea.
Jin Zhuoyan read very quickly. After reading it, he folded it up and handed it to King Qin. The two looked at each other. Jin Zhuoyan walked to Li Wenshan and tapped his shoulder with a folding fan. "Ming Zhenbang did violate the national law.
Not to mention a pure minister, since he has stood on the stage, he must have thought of such a tragic event today and is prepared, so don't be too sad."
"I know, I'm either sad, or..." Li Wenshan didn't know how to describe his mood. His heart was filled with all kinds of complicated and complex emotions that he couldn't explain clearly.
"You haven't practiced kung fu for a while, right? Let Cheng Ying accompany you to do a few moves. After sweating, you will feel refreshed and relaxed." Lu Yi came over, patted Li Wenshan's shoulder and said warmly.
Chapter completed!
