Chapter 87
Shi Ziyu's death caught everyone by surprise, and they didn't even know what it was like to be sad.

The sunny day in the morning suddenly turned cloudy, and it started to rain.

Mei Qi's joyful mood was instantly washed away and dissipated.

Standing in the gazebo, Mei Qi rested her hands behind her back, quietly watching the rain on the green bamboos outside.

When Mu Chuxi walked in holding an umbrella, she saw such a lonely scene.

For the first time, Mu Chuxi didn't bother Mei Qi with a hint of sadness on her small face.

For some reason, she knew that Mei Qi didn't want anyone to bother him.

Maybe he is recalling at this time, recalling the unique memories of him and some people back then.

Maybe he is heartbroken, sad that there is no possibility of seeing his old friends again.

Mu Chuxi walked slowly behind Mei Qi, listening to the sound of rain outside, and thinking of her short time with Shi Ziyu, tears flowed down unconsciously.

A slender finger slowly wiped away the tears on her face.

Mu Chuxi looked at Mei Qi, and instantly felt that she was crying more.

Mei Qi let out a long sigh, and stretched out her hand to gently hug Mu Chuxi into her arms.

The two of them didn't speak, just cuddled together.

"Actually, that elder sister is very good. I don't know why the emperor locked her in that place! She didn't even have a little light there, but she was still afraid of me, and she talked with me for a long time!"

Thinking that such a good person has been separated forever, Mu Chuxi felt how sad it is for the first time that the world is impermanent.

"She was originally a gentle and considerate person! No matter what mistakes others made, she would accept them with a smile, and comforted them by saying that no one in the world makes mistakes, and no one in the world will repent! It's a pity that such a person still escapes. Don't let go of the cruelty of this world!"

There seemed to be a ball of fire burning in Mei Qi's heart, and it seemed to be covered by a ball of ice, which made him want to roar, but also wanted to cry bitterly.

"My sister said that she was under strict supervision there, and I don't know why she can die by herself?!"

Mei Qi smiled bleakly: "If a person doesn't want to live anymore, no matter how you look at her, she still has a way to leave!"

Mu Chuxi looked up at Mei Qi, and reached out to gently touch his face.

"You must be very sad! You wanted to rescue her so much, but in the end you let her die in that dark place! If you want to cry, just cry, I won't laugh at you!"

Mei Qi looked down at Mu Chuxi and shook her head silently.

"Chu Xi, do you know? Tears are very precious! People like me are not qualified to cry!"

"Why don't you have the right to cry?" Mu Chuxi showed confused eyes: "Crying is everyone's right! You should cry when you are in a bad mood!"

Mei Qi smiled helplessly, and hugged Mu Chuxi even tighter in her arms.

"I have seen too much bloodshed and cruelty. If I cry at this time, those who died innocently will cry in the ground. Who can see their tears! So, although this world is given to me Countless glory and wealth have also given me endless pain and ruthlessness. Sometimes, I would rather just be a woodcutter, collect firewood and hunt every day, and watch the sunrise and sunset with my wife and children, instead of being like this, always They are constantly on guard and scheming. Sometimes it is not necessarily the flames of war that are fighting, but more often it is this peaceful moment where no swords, lights and swords are seen, which is even more frightening! Do you understand?"

After speaking, Mei Qi continued to look up at the rain falling outside.

Mu Chuxi won't understand. In her world, there are only sunshine and rain, only grass and flowers, while his world is nothing but haze and fighting. How different are these two extremes!

"I understand!"

Mu Chuxi looked up at Mei Qi very seriously, and said again with an emphatic tone: "I really understand!"

Mei Qi looked at Mu Chuxi again in surprise.

Mu Chuxi was a little annoyed.

"Don't really think I'm stupid and stupid! Sometimes when my father comes back, he will always be very angry, and then tell my mother some angry things in court. Those things sound very unfair, and when some good people are punished When I was wronged, my father would cry sadly, saying that the world is impermanent and the country is cruel! At the beginning, I didn’t know why my father was so sad, so I asked my mother. My mother would only sigh and tell me not to ask anything. , let alone read any history books and allusions. Then ignore me. I was unhappy, so I secretly ran to ask my elder brother, but my elder brother would tell me everything. He said that power is the most terrible thing in this world. Will kill people! People with power will always do things that they may not like for the sake of power. But there is no way, even if it is wrong sometimes, you have to do it!"

When Mu Chuxi said this, she wrinkled her face.

"This must be wrong! Wrong is wrong. Why do you do something wrong? Isn't that wrong? I think it's an excuse for myself! So, I know that the official is not good. It's even more difficult to be a good official! So, I think my father's official is like this. Moreover, I know that the person they said is the emperor. Although I don't know whether the emperor is doing right or not, but there must be something wrong I will never admit my mistakes. I don’t like it so much, and when my father came back and was sad, I pretended not to see him! Because I can’t help anything, so I have to make trouble at home and live the life I want! "

Mu Chuxi raised her head and looked at Mei Qi very innocently: "Mei Cao Bao, do you think people will be unhappy when they grow up? Actually, I don't want to grow up at all, and I don't want to get married!"

Mei Qi felt even more distressed after hearing Mu Chuxi's words.

Touching her tender little face, she said softly: "Growing up is really not happy! Don't worry, I will do my best not to let my worthless grow up. You just need to live in your world. .”

"However, people cannot grow up forever..."

"Yes! As long as I guard you, I will let you live in your own happy world! I promise!"

Said, Mei Qi stretched out three fingers to swear to the sky.

Mu Chuxi looked at Mei Qi and smiled, but she began to shake her head while smiling, and tears fell down again.

Reaching out to hold Mei Qi's fingers gently, Mu Chuxi's face was full of happiness, happiness with tears.

"I don't want to grow up all the time, so that I can't share your sadness! I don't want you to be sad, I want to be like a mother, and everything will be expected, so that you will feel like you have got a pair of wings and can fly Higher places!"

Mei Qi looked at Mu Chuxi in front of her, her eyes suddenly became a little bit astringent.

"Do you know? The place where you are is the direction I fly! There is nothing but cold in the place that is too high, but the place where you are is very warm. I like warm places! When the matter of the Qianjiajun is finished, I will Take you back to the northwest, let us go to herd eagles and ride horses together, and live the life of gods and couples. Ignore the chaos and complexity of this world, okay?"

Mu Chuxi nodded, smiling so beautifully, yet so sadly.

Although Mu Chuxi is simple, she knows that a person like Mei Qi will not be mediocre. He is destined to be a man of the hour when he is born. Only when he grows powerful wings can he fly to higher and farther places with him place.

The two of them stopped talking, silently thinking about their own thoughts.

It's just that one thinks of a peaceful pasture, while the other thinks of fanning the wings of the wind and clouds.

"Father!"

At some point, Ding Dou quietly stood outside.

"Say!"

"Second Miss let you enter the palace secretly!"

Mei Qi finally turned around.

"Secret? Hmph, is there a word "secret" in this palace?"

Ding Dou lowered his head in silence and did not answer.

Mu Chuxi patted Mei Qi's hand.

"Go quickly, maybe the imperial concubine has something important to do!"

Mei Qi looked at Mu Chuxi and heaved a long sigh.

"Okay! Then you wait here for me! I'll be back in a while!"

"Ok, I will wait for you!"

Mei Qi forced a smile to Mu Chuxi, then walked out with a heavy heart.

Mu Chuxi was watching Mei Qi's back from behind, suddenly she became a little crazy.

Mei Qi did enter the palace secretly.

Wearing a bodyguard's clothes, Mei Qi's face was extremely cold, she just lowered her head so that people couldn't see it for a while.

In the palace, Mei Junxian was standing by the window alone, quietly watching the clear rain outside.

"sister!"

After Mei Qi walked into the main hall, the door was gently closed behind.

Mei Junxian didn't look back, looking at the scenery outside, it seemed that she had been standing here for a long time.

Mei Qi walked slowly to Mei Junxian's side and remained silent.

Mei Junxian didn't look at her younger brother, but slowly rested her head on Mei Qi's shoulder.

"I was born young and young, and if I marry you well, I will stay as old as I can. This is the letter she wrote to Brother Qian when Riyu and Brother Qian were engaged, and included a letter of her own in it." The purse I sewed myself. At that time, I laughed at her, saying that she was going to get married soon, and she was so greasy and crooked, it was disgusting! She smiled and said, when I get married one day, I will definitely wear my own beautiful wedding dress. After that, she will show off a groom’s gown by herself. But how could things have become like this? She didn’t wait for Brother Qian’s white hair, and I didn’t wear the wedding gown that I showed off by myself. Even if the sky is merciless , but it won’t make lovers end up like this now!”

As she spoke, Mei Junxian burst into tears in her beautiful eyes.

Mei Qi rarely saw Mei Junxian cry, she didn't even cry when she was wearing a wedding dress she didn't like, but now, she was crying like a child.

Reaching out to hug her sister's slender shoulders, Mei Qi patted her sister lightly, comforting her sister with her movements.

"Sister Shi has endured for so many years, and finally she couldn't bear it any longer. She was relieved. But, if she perseveres, will she see a different ending? Xiaoqi, sometimes my sister is afraid that she won't be able to bear it too. It's..."

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Mei Qi immediately interrupted her sister's words.

"Second Sister, we have endured for so many years, and you gave birth to Sinan, no matter how sad the day is, we have come through it, are we going to give up at this time?"

"But I really can't live like this!"

Mei Junxian raised her voice all of a sudden, as if a fire was about to explode in her heart.

Breaking away from Mei Qi's hand, Mei Junxian's eyes were filled with indescribable cruelty and pain.

"Do you know what's going on in my heart every time I have to face Yu Zeya with a smile? I really want to die! I want to die every minute!"

Mei Qi looked at her sister, and said slowly after a long time: "At least, at least Yu Zeya really loves you..."

"Do I still care about his love? Do you know that the more he is like this, the more painful it is for me!"

Mei Junxian turned around slowly with tears in her eyes, "Do you know how many people's misfortunes are used to buy this kind of love?! Don't you know who is really in love with Yu Zeya? Yes Eldest sister! She is our own sister! Back then, my sister was such a savage person, but look at her now, what else does she do besides chant Buddha all day long? Walking dead! It’s walking dead!"

Mei Qi suddenly stopped talking.

There was unspeakable pain in his heart.

Such pain drags everyone down to hell.

At that time, he was still a teenager.

Do not!
Maybe when he was a child, there was really no difference between him and Mu Chuxi.

His parents died early, and his two elder sisters doted on him, so everyone in the Hou's mansion said that the young master was the happiest person in the world.

On the Mid-Autumn Festival that day, the gardenias were in full bloom, and the fragrance of flowers was everywhere.

After the realgar wine was brewed, the sweet-scented osmanthus mooncakes made by my sister were also served, and four distinguished guests came to the house.

Those were the prince Yu Pingzhang and his two younger brothers, Yu Zeya and Yu Langxian, and the other person was Qian Yu.

At that time, Yu Zeya and Yu Langxian were not even princes, they were just two princes.

Qian Yu was Yu Zeya's childhood companion, but was reused by the prince.

In that year, the world-crossing Xiaomei Qi was charmed by someone for the first time, and that person was Prince Yu Pingzhang.

Mei Qi can't forget Yu Pingzhang's demeanor even now.

Also in that year, he got two sworn brothers, Qian Yu and Yu Zeya.

Although Yu Zeya was the prince at that time, it was completely different from now.

At that time, he was also a handsome and suave young man with a sword in his hands, drinking with Mei Qi and Qian Yu in big bowls, eating meat, traveling all over the world, commenting on the past and the present.

Xiaomeiqi likes these people, so that Mid-Autumn Festival was the happiest reunion day in his life.

The eldest sister, Mei Haojia, is full of the friendship of a landlord, and the second sister, Mei Junxian, is young and youthful, and she is even more charming in front of everyone.

At that time, everyone was still young, full of love and pure.

Xiaomei is a big kid with seven people, and she likes these people very much, so, after getting drunk once, she even messed up the mandarin ducks.

The eldest sister must marry the prince, and the second sister should marry Yu Zeya, who he likes very much.

As a result, he was beaten up by the second sister.

After a long time, Mei Qi realized that although the eldest sister Mei Haojia had never said anything at the time, she had all her eyes on the suave Yu Zeya.The second sister, Mei Junxian, fell in love with Yu Langxian, who was always only waving a fan, only liked to laugh and didn't like to talk.

Yu Pingzhang also liked Mei Qi very much, and asked his younger brother Yu Langxian to be his master, and wanted to teach him to write and study.

As a result, Mei Qi really hated reading, and tried to escape and torment Yu Langxian every day.

Yu Langxian was not angry at all, and he was always able to defuse his weird tricks.

Yu Pingzhang once told Mei Haojia about Mei Qi's study, but the eldest sister didn't care much, saying that Xiao Qi was like this, and it would be nice if she could practice her kung fu well in the future to keep her family business.

Those days were like a dream.

Every day, Mei Qi can learn Kung Fu with Qian Yu, she can watch her eldest sister sitting under the osmanthus tree while embroidering mandarin ducks, and watch him and Yuze Yabi's arrow skills, and she can also watch Yulangxian when her second sister is blushing. , secretly scattered rose petals all over the sky.

More importantly, he can listen to Yu Pingzhang tell him countless stories, and he can tell him how to lead troops to fight and rule the world.

If the days go on like this, the world will be a different scene.

Even the best banquet in the world will end sometimes.

After a month, everyone was gone.

But Mei Qi went directly to Qian Yu's imperial guards to learn to lead the army to fight.

If everything remains the same, then the crown prince will become the emperor, the eldest sister will marry Yu Zeya and become a princess, the second sister can spend time with her lover every day, and she can be so happy forever!

However, God just can't see the full moon in the world.

Where did things take a turn?
Is the old emperor sick?

Seems to be!
It doesn't seem to be!
When Mei Qi thinks about it now, it seems that there has been a real change, it should be a battle in the palace.

It was the beginning of a misunderstanding between the queen at that time, the mother of the prince, and concubine Jing, who was Yu Zeya.

Right and wrong in the palace are never clear, but speaking of it, it's just a matter of concern among women.

However, it is precisely because of the small actions of those women who will never get ahead between these two sisters who were originally in love, that the two went from misunderstanding to suspicion, and finally to a life-and-death struggle.

Maybe Concubine Jing has been thinking of letting her son stand out for so many years, so that time, she really played a ruthless hand, not only cooperating with the people below to make a good layout, but also framing the queen and the imperial physician.

However, although Concubine Jing's plan was thoughtful, she forgot the relationship between the emperor and the empress.

The queen is the first wife of the emperor, and she has come through many disputes between Xiaoqiang, so the queen just cried a little bit, and then deliberately designed a trap for Concubine Jing behind her back, and Concubine Jing completely fell into her own trap up.

Mei Qi remembered that night.

It was pouring rain that night, Yu Zeya cried, knelt and crawled from the palace gate to the gate of Qianqing Palace, just to keep her mother alive.

But the door of Qianqing Palace never opened that night.

Even the prince knelt outside together, begging the emperor for mercy.

But in the end, only the queen came out and slapped the prince severely.

Got the phrase "If you don't treat the world cruelly, the world will definitely treat you cruelly!"

The prince didn't remember that sentence, but Yu Zeya did.

Concubine Jing was finally sunk.

Yu Zeya watched helplessly as her mother was sunk, but she never cried or shed a single tear.

When Concubine Jing left, Mei Qi was beside her, accompanying Yu Zeya.

She walked very calmly, just smiled and said to her son: "Son, you see, no matter how old you are, that's all!"

After speaking, he jumped down by himself.

From that moment on, Yu Zeya changed.

Become silent, become submissive, become more fond of drinking, but never say a word about the world.

Then, Qian Yu became a bigger official and had his own Qian Family Army.Invincible, invincible.

Mei Qi was sent back to the fief, and Yu Zeya always sent letters forcing him to learn how to lead troops to fight.

Later, the news that the prince in Beijing was absurd, drowsy and drunk all day long.

Later, the news became even more exaggerated.

Until the emperor personally caught the prince fornicating the harem concubines and sleeping on the dragon bed.

The hat of rebellion was completely buckled.

At that time, Mei Qi didn't believe the news, so he took people to the capital himself.

The capital has long been jittery.

He didn't believe what anyone said, but he believed what Qian Yu said.

Qian Yu had already married a wife at that time, but that night she held Mei Qi and cried like a child.

He kept saying that sentence repeatedly in his mouth, "The prince can't keep it!"

The prince can't keep it!

Mei Qi was struck by these words repeatedly.

At that time, it was not Yu Zeya who had the most imperial power, but the third prince Yu Tongze.

Seeing that the prince's mansion has been completely locked up, it will be the time when Yu Tongze will be named the new prince.

At this time, at the darkest hour of the night, Yu Zeya took Qian Yu and Mei Qi to meet the prince at the risk of death.

The prince couldn't get up at this time, only his thin face and heart full of grief and indignation remained.

"I was framed! I didn't do any of these things! My wine has been drugged a long time ago! I can't control my thoughts!"

At that time, everyone thought that Yu Tongze must have done it.

Therefore, Qian Yu and Mei Qi swear that no matter what, this world cannot be won by such a person. Therefore, under Yu Pingzhang's instruction, everyone went to support Yu Zeya together.

Every time Mei Qi thinks about that night, she hates herself to death.

Why didn't he see the cunning and treachery in Yu Zeya's eyes at that time.

In the end, things went as expected. With the support of Qian Yu and Mei Qi, Yu Zeya defeated Yu Tongze and became the new prince.

Just when everyone thought things had turned around, the old emperor passed away.

Yu Zeya became the new emperor in that instant.

And Yu Zeya's first imperial order was to lock up all the people in the former prince's mansion to the sky prison.

Mei Qi didn't understand why, just when he wanted to question Yu Zeya face to face, when a war came from the frontier, Mei Qi immediately led troops to the expedition.

It was that time that Mei Qi became famous in the first battle and became the new God of War in the world.

Before he returned to the imperial court triumphantly, he received a report from the imperial court: the former prince Yu Pingzhang murdered the late emperor, and he was stabbed to death by all kinds of traitors!General Baoguo Qian Yu led the army of thousands of families in an attempt to rebel, and all of them were executed on the spot!

Mei Qi didn't fully understand Yu Zeya's plot until now.

Just when he was so angry that he really wanted to raise troops and return to the court, the two elder sisters in the family had been brought back to the palace one after another and made noble concubines.

One mistake and the whole game is lost!
Half a year later, the virtuous king Yulangxian was found out to reverse the case for the former crown prince, directly remove his title, demote him to common people, and distribute his family to the frontier.

Mei Qi fought to the death to save the dying Yulang Xian at the end, but since that moment, there has been no such person as the Xian Wang in this world, only Jiang Simiao, who will never see the light, has been added.

Some hates need not be spoken out, and some resentments become hates when spoken out.

Eight years!

Eight years passed by!
In the past eight years, Mei Qi has become the undisciplined bastard Hou Ye that everyone in the world ridicules.

In eight years, Mei Haojia, who was in the prime of his life, lost his love and died; in eight years, Mei Junxian, who was once more beautiful than peach blossoms, was buried in a frost mask; in eight years, Yulang, who was once elegant and immortal Xian has become a shady gambling king.

Eight years later, the bones in the ground became colder.

Eight years later, Yu Zeya's heart became colder.

Today, when Shi Ziyu passed away, everything seemed to be blown up by the wind from hell, and people's hearts were scarred by hatred.

"Xiaoqi! Tell my sister, when will such a day be the end? I am afraid that if I face Yu Zeya again, I can't help but take out a dagger, stab him to death, and kill me too! Yes, it's really hard!"

Sometimes Mei Junxian really can't tell what kind of feelings she has for facing the person next to her pillow every day.

Sometimes, when Mei Junxian looked at Yu Zeya sleeping soundly, she really wanted to kill him, but sometimes because of the sound of him calling his mother after drunk, she felt as uncomfortable as being pierced by a thousand needles!

Mei Junxian thinks about the past every day. She is really afraid that she will end up lost in this bustling world, but forget her pain back then.

"It won't be long!"

Mei Qi murmured.

Mei Junxian looked up at her younger brother.

"You, are you ready now?"

"Sister, there is nothing in this world that will definitely be ready! It's just that Yu Zeya has fallen into madness now, and he will bury himself!"

Mei Junxian let out a long sigh.

She admitted that Yu Zeya would have nightmares almost every few days now, dreaming that everyone back then was looking at him with blood dripping.

If this continues, the sky will not kill him, and he will be sent to hell by himself.

"Sister, tell me, Sister Shi has endured for so many years, why can't she survive these few days?"

Mei Junxian was stunned for a moment, looking at her younger brother, she didn't know what to say for a while.

Mei Qi continued to talk about her thoughts.

"Chu Xi said that she talked a lot with Sister Shi. I believe Chu Xi will definitely mention me! Since Sister Shi already knew that I was going to Beijing, she must know that I would save her. But why didn't she insist at this time? What! She must be clear about how important that list is. Otherwise, she wouldn't have insisted on dealing with Yu Zeya for so many years!"

Mei Junxian immediately understood what Mei Qi meant.

"You mean that the reason why sister Shi chose to hang herself at this time is because she has passed the news to Chu Xi?! In this way, she is equivalent to handing over the list to you, and in this way, she gave up. persist in?"

Mei Qi nodded slowly.

Looking at the pattering rain outside, Mei Qi showed a look of sadness on her face.

"Sister Shi still didn't forgive me. How could she not know how innocent Chu Xi is! She brought in such a simple Chu Xi just to make me feel the same anxiety and pain! Hey, why did she do this? Could it be Have I had a good time these years?"

Mei Junxian let out a long sigh and patted her younger brother on the shoulder.

"Xiaoqi, sometimes we shouldn't be so narrow-minded in thinking about things! Maybe it's because Sister Shi really found support, but she really couldn't hold on anymore? To be honest, how did she persist in these years? It's hard to imagine! I'm still in the palace, and I'm still in luxury, and I've already suffered infinitely, not to mention, she's still in such a dark place."

"However, Yu Zeya soon found out that Chu Xi got the list! He is not a fool, on the contrary, he is much smarter than everyone else. In this way, Chu Xi will be in danger!"

Mei Junxian sighed helplessly.

"Xiao Qi, it's not my sister who said it. Falling in love with you already represents danger and hardship! If Chu Xi can't resist, then she won't be able to go too far with her! Whether you like it or not, people like us are doomed It has nothing to do with peace and prosperity!"

Of course Mei Qi knew that what her sister said was right, but he was not reconciled!
Not reconciled to death!
Clenched his fists tightly, if Yu Zeya dared to embarrass Chu Xi, he would have to spell out an explanation even if he died.

Just as the siblings were talking in their hearts, someone outside suddenly knocked gently on the door.

"what's up?"

Mei Junxian frowned slightly.

"Go back to the empress, the empress empress and Concubine Zhuang have already returned to the palace, let you go to Kunning Palace to have an audience!"

Mei Junxian and Mei Qi glanced at each other immediately.

It was obvious that there was a reason for coming back so soon.

"Okay! I get it! I'll be there right away!"

"Yes!"

After waiting for a while, the outside continued to report back.

"Immortal Concubine Zhuang asked me to tell my empress that if Master Qi is here, then let him go to Zhuang Ning Palace. My empress has something to say to Master Qi!"

Mei Qi nodded.

"Okay! Got it!"

This time, there was no movement outside.

"Eldest sister wants to see you, I'm afraid she has got some news!"

"Okay! I got it! Sister, go see the queen first! I'll go to Zhuangning Palace!"

Mei Junxian nodded and quickly wiped away the tears on her face.

"Be careful when you go to my sister's palace, I will go there in a while!"

"okay, I get it!"

Mei Qi didn't delay, she came out of the second sister's palace and came to Zhuangning palace immediately.

This place is extremely secluded, apart from being exceptionally clean, there are even few people serving it.

Mei Qi stood in front of the Buddha statue in the palace, quietly looking at the always smiling Buddha statue in front of her.

After waiting for a long time, footsteps slowly sounded outside.

As soon as Mei Qi heard it, she knew that it was the eldest sister and the second sister who came back together.

Turning his head, Mei Haojia walked in calmly.

"My younger brother has met my eldest sister! My sister is safe and sound!"

Mei Haojia is very beautiful, but it is completely different from her younger sister's beauty. There is always a kind of calm and gentleness on her face.

In recent years, worshiping the Buddha has made her look extravagant and detached.

It seemed that Mei Haojia hadn't seen her younger brother for a long time, but when she saw her brother at this moment, she actually smiled sincerely.

Walk over, help Mei Qi up, and take a closer look.

"There is a little more stability on the face, and five more peach blossoms between the eyebrows!"

Mei Qi immediately touched her face, was it so obvious that she felt strange about Mu Chuxi?

Mei Haojia didn't say anything more about his brother, walked to the altar, first lit three sticks of incense, and then walked aside and sat down slowly.

Mei Junxian walked aside automatically, and poured tea for her sister.

"Sister, why did you come back so soon? Didn't you say it will take two days?"

Mei Haojia picked up the teacup and fiddled with it lightly.

"The Queen's health is not very good. If you are tired from the wind and frost outside, it's better to come back early!"

"My sister has worked hard!"

Mei Qi walked over and said sincerely.

Mei Haojia smiled slightly, it was hard to tell if it was happy or normal.

Looking up at his younger brother, Mei Haojia asked indifferently: "Madam Qian was gone last night?"

Mei Qi's face darkened for a moment, and she nodded.

"Well! I got the news this morning!"

Mei Haojia didn't have a particularly big reaction, but showed a comforting expression.

"After suffering for so long, it's good to leave! Birth is extinguished, and death is extinguished. It's just an extra mourning hall and a memorial tablet!"

Mei Qi and Mei Junxian stopped talking.

Mei Haojia's words really made the two of them at a loss as to how to proceed.

"Just now when I came back, the people below said they were going to report to the emperor. But the emperor didn't come to see the empress, I'm afraid he was upset!"

"It's annoying to death!" Mei Junxian said angrily, "I'm locked up in my own palace now, and I heard that the things inside have been smashed all over!"

Mei Qi immediately said "Cut!", "Small it well! Didn't he smash it all, why are the people below so greedy when they buy new things!"

Mei Haojia didn't say much to what her younger siblings said, instead she raised her head and looked at Mei Qi.

"Ziyu passed away, who did she leave her things to, you already know?"

Mei Qi's expression turned ugly immediately, and she said angrily, "I know!"

"Know what you want to do?"

"What can I do? I can only protect Chu Xi first!"

Speaking of this, Mei Qi had a bad look on her face.

"You said the emperor would go to grab it?" Mei Junxian frowned and asked.

Mei Qi immediately stared, "He really wants to! But I'm afraid he doesn't have the ability!"

"madness!"

Mei Haojia said something coldly.

Mei Qi and Mei Junxian stopped talking immediately.

"Yu Zeya is the emperor, so he still needs to grab someone if he wants?"

After saying this, Mei Haojia looked at Mei Qi coldly: "What's more, she's a woman!"

Mei Qi immediately sensed the embarrassment, and looked straight at the elder sister.

"Sister, what do you mean?"

Mei Haojia didn't speak, but took out a letter from his cuff and handed it to Mei Qi.

Mei Junxian hurried over and opened the letter with Mei Qi.

There were only a few words on the letter: Beifan and his relatives are coming to Beijing soon!
"Northern marriage?"

Mei Qi immediately raised her head and glanced at Mei Haojia.

Mei Haojia gave Mei Qi a hard look.

Mei Qi knew immediately that she was wrong!
"Sister! I was wrong!"

Mei Junxian looked at her sister and excused her younger brother.

"Sister, there is no one else here, just the three of us! Xiao Qi's literacy..."

"This matter can't be said even if you die!"

Mei Haojia interrupted her sister coldly.

Mei Junxian immediately lowered her head and fell silent.

"I've been saying that walls have ears for eight years, don't you know?"

Mei Haojia changed her attitude and reprimanded her siblings coldly.

"How much pains did Dad take to hide this matter back then! Do you think why Yu Zeya kept Mei Qi behind and killed Qian Yuman's family? He had already figured in his heart that Xiao Qi was no matter how capable she was, but as long as I can't read, that's a good-looking idiot! Without this, Xiao Qi has died countless times! Do you think this is just a joke?"

Mei Junxian and Mei Qi saw that the eldest sister was really angry, and they both knelt on the ground.

Mei Haojia looked at the two people on the ground, and the anger in his heart didn't subside in the slightest.

"If Daddy hadn't seen through the world and people's hearts long ago, how could he have kept Xiao Qi's literacy behind the scenes! What kind of place is this? This is the den of tigers and wolves. This is the place where we will be killed in an instant! Don't you want to let Xiaoqi know how to read? Our Mei family died with injustice?! Don’t forget, we carry countless wronged souls on our backs, so we can’t die too peacefully!”

Neither Mei Qi nor Mei Junxian dared to say a word, they just lowered their heads and remained silent.

Mei Haojia looked at the two of them, and after a long time, it seemed that she slowly calmed down.

"Habits are a terrible trap. Once a habit is formed, it will reveal its whereabouts. Xiaoqi has done a good job these years, and we can't fall short at the end!"

"Yes! My brother has remembered my sister's lesson. Next time, my brother will definitely not talk too much!"

Mei Qi hurriedly kowtowed, admitting her mistake and apologizing.

"You talk too much!"

Mei Haojia looked at his younger brother and gave him a hard look.

"Okay, now go and kneel on the futons! If someone sees you later, I'll teach you a lesson for being too arrogant!"

"Yes!"

Mei Qi immediately stood up, helped her second sister up, and knelt down in front of the Buddhist hall.

Seeing that her sister and brother were all kneeling down, Mei Haojia let out a long sigh.

"Listen to me, from now on, it's time for us to really start to move. You must be extra cautious in all your actions, activate all our hidden stakes, and wait for orders at any time!"

"Yes!"

When Mei Qi heard what her sister said, her face became serious.

"Sister, since the emperor has already set his sights on Chu Xi, what should I do?"

Mei Haojia stood up slowly, walked in front of the Buddha statue, and smiled slightly.

"I've already thought of a solution! As long as the emperor dares to do it, I will let him understand that the Mei family is not so easy to mess with!"

Mei Qi and Mei Junxian looked at each other immediately.

"Then what are we going to do?"

"Don't worry about it! As long as you do what I say!"

"Yes!"

Mei Haojia glanced at Mei Qi, and finally settled on the letter.

A cruel smile slowly crossed the corner of his mouth.
