After my rebirth, I married my ex-husband and his uncle

Chapter 259 It's Grandpa's Arrangement
He Tingrong stretched out his hand and gently brushed He Tingyi's slightly messy temple hair, looked at her with a smile, and asked, "Tingyi, how did you rest last night?"

In fact, He Tingyi didn't rest well. First, she cried bitterly, and then she barely fell asleep after being exhausted. Then she dreamed of Hongying in her dream. In her dream, she watched her being stoned Dead, Hongying kept saying to her, "Miss, I hurt so much, my head hurts so much"

In the dream, she panicked and covered Hongying's bleeding wound with her hands, but the blood seemed to have leaked out, pouring out in large streams like a flood, warm blood Her hands, her clothes were dyed red, and her eyes were engraved into her eyes. Her eyes were full of blood, and she panicked in her dream. She hugged Hongying tremblingly, and kept calling Hongying. She kept calling Hongying, but Hongying's pupils gradually became dilated...

The blood was still warm, but the person had gradually cooled down. In the end, even the blood cooled down bit by bit, and Hongying died in her arms.

But He Tingyi did not tell He Tingrong about the tragic scenes in these dreams, she just raised her pale cheeks slightly and said obediently to He Tingrong: "Sister, I slept well."

He Tingrong stopped talking, and the soft pain filled his heart again. The fourth sister was not like this, she would not talk to others pretending to be obedient, and she would not show such a cautious and ingratiating look.

She used to be such a proud girl, she would act like a baby when she was uncomfortable, she would make trouble when she was unhappy, and she would laugh when she was happy. Although she would occasionally get angry with Miss Jiao, she was innocent and romantic after all, but now...

He Tingrong suddenly couldn't speak what was in his heart.

"It's good to sleep well," He Tingrong stroked the top of her hair, and said softly, "Fourth sister, you should be hungry after sleeping for so long. Get up, wash up, and go eat. I'll have breakfast in the kitchen." It makes people warm."

"Okay." He Tingyi responded in a low voice.

Seeing that she agreed, He Tingrong turned her head and called the serving maid, who waited on He Tingyi to get up and wash.

Several maidservants rushed in, holding a washbasin in their hands, holding face towels, clothes and other things, and waited for He Tingyi to get up and freshen up.

He Tingyi sat in front of the vanity mirror and let the maid who combed her hair comb her hair. He Tingyi looked at herself in the mirror, gradually becoming the same as before, with a dazed expression. The person in the mirror was her, but not her.

Just when she was in a daze, her sister He Tingrong came up behind her, put her bare hands on her shoulders, and looked at her through the mirror, He Tingyi looked at her sister reflected in the mirror, saw her smiling, and said to her: " Tingyi, you can stay here with peace of mind, and my sister will take care of the rest with peace of mind."

He Tingyi's somewhat empty eyes gradually focused, and a little bit of joy welled up in her pupils. She raised her red lips with rouge, and said, "Thank you, sister."

He Tingrong wanted to say that there is no need to be polite between sisters, but He Tingyi suddenly turned around, looked up at her, and asked, "Sister, grandfather, mother...how are they?"

He Tingrong covered her eyes and replied in a low voice: "The case is not over yet, they are still locked in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice."

"Then... what about father? Where did father go?"

He Tingyi actually noticed something strange when her grandfather suddenly resigned and returned to his hometown. Their family left Beijing as soon as their grandfather resigned, but there was no sign of their father in the returning team. How could this not make her suspicious? Although she asked her mother and grandfather insinuatingly on the way, they kept silent and did not tell her. It was not until the imperial examination incident that she wandered all the way to the capital that she finally found out what the He family was involved in.

All the members of the He family, except her and her father, were imprisoned in the prison of the Criminal Ministry, waiting to be released. She is now in the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, but her father's life and death are still unknown.

"Father was found by the forbidden army yesterday. He is in the same state. He should be on his way back by escort now."

"Why did father go to Tongzhou?" He Tingyi asked anxiously.That is obviously the opposite direction from He's hometown, and further north will be the Northern Territory.

He Tingrong shook her head: "I don't know, I heard that this seems to be the arrangement of my grandfather."

"Grandpa's arrangement?"

"Yes, my father is the mastermind of this imperial examination fraud case. In order to save my father, my grandfather sent him away before the incident happened, and then went to His Majesty to bear all the responsibilities for my father." He Tingrong explained.

"So it's because your majesty knew about it in advance when grandfather suddenly resigned from his old age and returned to his hometown?" He Tingyi asked.

He Tingrong nodded: "Yes, Your Majesty, for the sake of grandfather being the elder of the three dynasties, and grandfather taking the initiative to confess, gave him dignity and asked him to resign by himself."

"Then...then since His Majesty forgave grandfather, now...why do you want to pursue the He family?"

"This matter was originally handled in secret in a low-key manner, but it was kept secret. On the day when the list was published, this matter was still revealed by someone with a heart. Flocking to the Xuanzheng Hall, His Majesty has no choice but to order Prince Dun Li Su, Minister of Dali Temple Chang Xia, and Shang Shu Yuan Zhi of the Ministry of Punishment to thoroughly investigate this matter."

"It turned out to be like this, it turned out to be like this." He Tingyi finally understood the whole story, "Father is so foolish, so foolish, for his own selfish desires, he brought the He family to this point."

He Tingrong smiled and didn't speak.

"Then...then what will happen to our family when father comes back? What will happen to our family? Will father...will he die?"

He Tingrong shook her head and said: "I don't know, now that the case has become so big, I wonder if His Majesty will spare father's life under pressure."

He Tingyi remained silent, thinking to himself, probably not, no matter how proud his grandfather was, no matter how hard he worked, the bond between the king and his subjects had already been exhausted last time, this time, it is impossible for His Majesty to do it for his grandfather , Offended the scholars of the world.

As soon as the two sisters finished talking, the servant girl came in: "Second Grandma, Miss Cousin, breakfast is already on the table, you can move over to eat."

He Tingrong nodded, smiled and pulled her younger sister away, and walked towards the outside. He Tingyi looked down at her sister holding her white and slender hand, and compared it with her own scarred, rough, dark yellow and dry hand Without saying a word, she obediently followed He Tingrong's footsteps and went out.

Later that day, Qin Fenghua came back from inspecting the shop outside the mansion. As she walked towards the main hall, she tilted her head and explained something to the old housekeeper, Qin Ze. Shang looked at the old butler calmly, and asked in a low voice: "What's going on?"
