Chapter 19: If the Small One Doesn't Work, Then Kill the Big One
Chapter 19 If the little one can’t do it, then kill the big one
When Zhong Ming heard this, he was shocked and quickly opened the door and went in.
But he saw the old lady sitting on the ground, surrounded by maids and servants. The old lady's hair was disheveled, her clothes were disheveled, she was lying half on top of a mother, crying and fussing, and she had no image at all.
There is also a piece of white silk hanging on the beam.
"What is this for?" Zhong Ming couldn't help but roared when he saw this.
When the servants saw that Zhong Ming was back, they felt as if they had met their master. They knelt down and saluted, shouting: "The master is back, the master is back..."
The old lady was sitting in the middle. When she heard this, she turned back and looked at her son.
When she turned around, Zhong Ming saw clearly the bright slap mark on his mother's face.
"What's going on?" Zhong Ming asked.
But I saw the old lady with a swollen face, tears streaming down her face and shouting: "Ming'er, you are back."
"Ming'er, you have to make the decision for mother. If you kill that bitch, kill that bitch for mother."
Her face was so swollen that her eyes and nose were pushed together, and she couldn't even speak clearly. Well, Ma from outside the door couldn't help it, so she covered her mouth and laughed twice.
.
But she saw Zhong Ming looking at her with an angry expression.
"What's going on?" Zhong Ming asked.
Ma had no choice but to tell exactly what Mu Qingchao did today.
"Nonsense!" Zhong Ming shouted angrily.
"Who asked you to make the decision without authorization? Can't you just delay me and wait for me to come back?"
"I think so too, but mother..."
Mrs. Ma secretly glanced at Mrs. Zhong.
She was still aggrieved. She was the legitimate daughter of a noble family, and when she met this concubine mother-in-law, she couldn't even explain why she was right. However, she still had to take care of everything and stir up trouble even if it was unreasonable.
If it weren't for the fact that Zhong Ming was now in a high position, she wouldn't be too lazy to deal with this old pious woman.
Mrs. Zhong looked at Ma's look and cursed: "What do you mean? Are you blaming me?
You stood there and watched that bitch beat me without saying a word, but now you have the nerve to complain about me?"
Zhong Ming watched the women arguing and had a headache: "What can I do now? Mu Qingchao has returned to the palace, can't I be allowed to enter the palace to arrest people?"
"Then you mean to let me suffer this humiliation in vain?"
When Mrs. Zhong heard this, she immediately became excited. She stood up and scolded her son without wanting to die.
"Okay, okay, Zhong Ming, I have worked hard to cultivate you and let you read the books of sages. Now you have become famous, inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people, but you are watching your mother being insulted and beaten by others.
You are really a good son raised by your mother..."
Zhong Ming was scolded by this, and he also felt angry in his heart: "This is not what I am..."
"master!"
At this moment, Ma spoke.
"Actually, I also have a way."
"Do you have any idea?" Zhong Ming turned to look at Ma after hearing this.
"We can't do anything about this little one, but isn't there an older one living in our house?" Ma said and smiled slyly at Zhong Ming.
Mrs. Zhong's eyes lit up when she heard this: "Yes, yes, that family has been eating and drinking in our house for so long, and now they are repaying kindness with enmity.
Ming'er, let's go to the west courtyard.
If Mu Qingchao dares to do this to me, I always want her to experience the loss of her relatives and the destruction of her family." Mrs. Zhong said this with a hint of cruelty in her eyes.
Zhong Ming was really frightened by his mother's cruelty.
"But Ayin is my sister after all. Wouldn't this be...not good?"
After all, Zhong Ming did not completely destroy people's hearts. Although Zhong lived at home all year round, he found it annoying, but after all, she was his half-sister.
Do you want him to kill his innocent sister who lost her father?
He seemed a little impatient.
After all, Zhongyin doesn't pose any threat to them now, right?
But the old lady said fiercely: "What sister? What kind of sister is the seed of the old woman? You have been the prime minister for a few days and you have forgotten whose belly you crawled out of?
Okay, just go and accept her as your sister, and don’t want me as an old woman!"
When the old lady said this, how could Zhong Ming be able to withstand it?
He had some conscience, but not much, so he gathered a group of servants and headed towards the west courtyard, hoping that his mother would be able to calm down after ringing the bell.
But when a group of people arrived at the west courtyard, they saw a group of guards with knives standing there.
Fifty imperial guardsmen surrounded the west courtyard in an orderly manner, like iron barrels. When they saw Zhong Ming and a group of people approaching, they swung their swords and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhong, the Queen Mother has ordered that except for the Mu family, no one else is here."
No need to enter."
"You can see clearly who I am!"
Zhong Ming was stopped and said angrily.
He felt that his majesty had been challenged, and with it, the last bit of guilt he felt towards Zhong Yin was gone.
But the imperial guard still said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhong, we are assigned by Your Majesty to the Queen Mother, so we can only obey the orders of the Queen Mother alone."
The Royal Forest Army has received professional training and is an army directly affiliated with Shen Muchi. They will do whatever Shen Muchi tells them to do without any personal emotions.
When the old lady heard this, she jumped out immediately.
"You have figured it out, my son is the chief minister of the dynasty. Do you know what will happen if you offend him?"
The old lady was born as a concubine. When she was young, she only cared about writing and writing. Naturally, she had no idea about the affairs in the court. She just felt that now that she was in charge, her mood became more and more inflated. She did not care about what she said and used her status to pressure others.
But the answer she received was still: "Mr. Zhong, please forgive me, but we only follow the orders of the Queen Mother."
The old lady was so angry that she fell down.
"Okay, okay, you guys..."
"mother!"
But before the old lady could say anything, she was stopped by the bell.
"Mom, stop talking!"
Zhong Ming knew that the imperial guard's status was unusual and he could easily be offended. If some words reached Shen Muchi's ears, there might be more trouble.
But how did the old lady know? She just scolded: "Why can't I say it? You should give them some color to see these things that have no eyesight."
When you go to court tomorrow, you will submit a letter to His Majesty..."
"mother!"
Zhong Ming was afraid that the old lady had said the wrong thing, so he quickly stopped drinking and even his tone of voice became a little heavier.
He frowned and said in a deep voice: "Go back, this matter needs to be discussed in the long run."
But how could the old lady listen to this at this time? She stared at the bell, and all she could think about was: "You yelled at me?"
Zhong Ming was upset, so he went to hold the old lady's hand and said in a deep voice: "Go back first, and we will talk about the rest later."
"Okay, just go back when you go back!"
The old lady was not difficult to deal with this time, and she shook off Zhong Ming's hand and headed towards Rong Xuetang.
Zhong Ming saw that his mother finally stopped making trouble and breathed a sigh of relief, but this breath did not last long.
As he watched the old lady walk to the front hall, she turned around and bumped against the pillar of the ancestral hall.
The servants around were startled and rushed to pull him away.
But I saw her kneeling on the ground and shouting into the ancestral hall: "Master, I'm here to find you!"
