——————
Ming Jin came out of Red Stone Valley, and Tuo Ze, who was waiting outside, saw that she looked wrong.
"My lord?"
Tuo Ze asked, Ming Jin shook his head and said nothing, but he was not in a hurry to go back, but instead rode his horse slowly towards the capital.
She was wondering what the Lord was thinking. She had known for a long time that he wanted to get him.
She probably looks at men too much. No matter what they say or do, she only looks at him.
There are very few people in this world who can hide their eyes, even the master of crossing the river with a reed.
Since she returned to the capital and saw this mediocre emperor for the first time since she was young, she has seen her reflection in his eyes.
But she didn't care too much, she only cared about the good and evil of the other party towards the Xie family.
I only care about whether this plot is worth using.
But when she saw him today, she felt a little strange.
"Tuoze, have you ever had the woman you wanted?" Ming Jin asked suddenly.
Tuo Zefa was stunned, thought for a moment, and shook his head, "No, that one is too hurtful. I dare not touch it."
He became curious. Could it be that there was someone in the Lord's heart? Was it the person he saw inside?
"It's hurting people, so it's good if you don't touch them." Ming Jin smiled slightly, there was no emotion in his eyes, but he tolerated the coldness and frost around him.
"I'm afraid it's going to snow."
She sighed softly, but she didn't know that at this time, the Xie family's carriages and horses were entering the city on the city wall, but Yan Zhen, who was holding a sword on the wall, looked at it for a while, but did not see Ming Jin.
Instead, I saw Xie Mingrong with a startled look when the curtains were opened.
Eyes facing each other.
After a while, they met in the private room of Xianlou.
Yan Zhen was surprised that Xie Mingrong would send someone to contact her, but seeing that the other party's face had become much thinner, the news about the Xie family was a trivial matter even if it was a fly inside, but it would be a big deal if it floated outside.
What's more, after Xie Jun's death, Xie Mingrong lost his son and reconciled with Zhang Yong... She lowered her eyes, but she didn't show any alienation from the Xie family. She had much respect and pity for this woman in her heart.
Around this time, she also knew that these things actually had nothing to do with women from aristocratic families.
"Why do you call me Miss Mingrong?"
Mingrong looked up at her and asked, "Why are you here? You should hate my Xie family to the core."
Yan Zhen frowned and said nothing.
"Do you also think that these family fights have nothing to do with women?"
Yan Zhen lowered her head and looked at the ripples in the drink, "If Yuzhu had been treated like this by others, there would not have been so many things later."
"Actually, they are all related."
Xie Mingrong's words made Yan Zhen look up suddenly.
"There are no intact eggs under the overturned nest." Xie Mingrong lowered his eyes to drink water, his fingers were so pale that they were almost transparent, "You and Su Yuzhu are both qualified to be resentful, but you are just willing to be a little more lenient to my Xie family girl, thank you very much."
A long time ago, Yan Zhen knew that the Xie family had such an eldest sister who strictly abided by the rules. She also heard Ming Jin mention it many times. The latter was very respectful to her, but she and Yuzhu were very frightened and felt that such a sister was too scary.
Already.
After so many years, things have changed and people have changed, but she is still afraid of this woman from the bottom of her bones.
Perhaps it was because he was afraid that despite these changes, the other party could still maintain his courtesy and character despite his weak skin.
On the contrary, it was me who stabbed Xie Mingjin with a knife out of hatred...
Could it be that the other party is here to blame today?
"You're welcome, I'm just growing up."
"Yes, you have grown up, and Ajin has grown up too."
Yan Zhen squeezed the cup tightly, "Miss Mingrong, do you have any advice?"
"Actually, when she fought against my uncle for the Su Yan family, I even thought she was unworthy of being the heir of the family."
Yan Zhen's face was slightly cold, but her eyes flashed with complexity, but she said nothing.
"I have always felt that whether winning or losing in a fight, she should remain calm and not be emotional. After so many years, I have not changed, but I found that she has not changed either."
Yan Zhen looked away, feeling sour in her heart, and only asked: "Are you saying that she has sacrificed a lot for me and Yuzhu, and hopes that I can let go..."
"No, I just want to persuade you to help me persuade her to let it go."
What's the meaning?
Yan Zhen suddenly didn't understand, but saw Xie Mingrong sitting there, with a rare sadness in his pale face.
"I'm afraid you still don't know that those who bullied and humiliated Miss Yuzhu back then have ended up in extremely tragic situations for various reasons over the years. Either their families were ruined or their lives were worse than death."
Yan Zhen was shocked. The list of those events back then had been destroyed. She could not find out the old events of that person who had gone through so many changes.
Naturally, I can't find out who they are.
But Xie Mingrong found it.
Was it Xie Mingjin who did it? She is such an upright and elegant person, who restrains herself and returns to etiquette, but would she go on a killing spree in private?
And it was an old thing, that is to say, Xie Mingjin had already started it many years ago.
But no one knows.
"Actually, it's just a clue, because when the incident came out, I broke up with her and sent people to investigate and found out the identities of individual people. After checking again over the years, I found the fate of those people... Miss Yan, she put her most
All the good things are given to you."
"Those things that are unbearable, things that cannot be forgiven by humanity, things that she can't let go of, there is no one in this world that she can tell her about."
Yan Zhen suddenly understood, and she understood that Ming Jin's current state was probably just like back then. For Yuzhu, Ming Jin could lie dormant for many years and crazily take revenge on those people in the dark. Now, for Xie Mingdai, I'm afraid...
"What does she want to do?"
"I'm not sure." Xie Mingrong pressed his eyebrows lightly, showing a tired look, "I just want to ask you to take a step forward, even one step."
After she finished speaking, she didn't press for an answer, so she stood up to leave, but Yan Zhen asked her, "Why didn't you persuade her yourself?"
Yan Zhen did not know the truth about Xie Juan's death. She only knew that the latter seemed to have violated family rules and was punished. However, she did not know that Ming Jin personally beheaded him.
Hence this question.
"The Xie family will become her weakness. If I take another step closer, it will be like pushing her into the abyss."
"You are different. You are the past that she did not dare to recover even after she lost it."
Ming Rong left the box, went downstairs and got into the carriage, and saw the street was bustling with activity. It turned out that there was a notice.
The case of collusion between the imperial court and the heretical cult came to an end. One of the main suspects, Xiao Ji, confessed that he had colluded with the King of Yan, and united with Guangling Valley to plot a great cause, corrupted the foundation of the imperial court, harmed the people, and even went so far as to falsify imperial edicts...
There are people involved in the notice.
Xie Mingrong asked his confidants to read the notice and write down the identities of the people involved.
"From the Qin family?" Xie Mingrong frowned slightly.
Has the Qin family been implicated?
Regardless of whether he is really involved or not, the Ministry of Punishment actually dared to mention it. You must know that Zhonggong is pregnant now. This child is of great significance. If it is a boy, the atmosphere in Zhaoguo's court will be divided because of it.
If the Ministry of Punishment actually hangs up the Qin family, wouldn't it be a slap in the queen's face?
By the way, Concubine Ling has a strong foundation in the Ministry of Punishment.
But...it also has the roots of the Xie family and the Thirty-Fifth Clan.
Xie Mingrong thought for a moment and felt that Ming Jin and Xiao Rong were about to fight against the Qin family's opponents.
"But the Queen has a son. With her bright and cautious character, she should know that it is never a good time to take action before the child is born."
Xie Mingrong dispelled this suspicion, but suddenly thought that if it were in the past, she would definitely go to Ming Jin to have a good talk. She has always liked to be different from him in this aspect. She said that she was unwilling to be second to others, but it was actually a kind of sympathy. After all, she had no other
People can tell.
But now I can't.
She smiled lowly, with a bitter taste in her mouth.
