The second lady returned to the house, closed the doors and windows, and was still frightened.
She can still clearly recall the cold hand in her dream.
Is it really a dream?
Can you have such a clear dream?
She clearly remembered every word of what she said in her dream, even her tone...
When Nanny Hu came in, what she saw was her sitting there, holding her wrist in a daze.
"lady?"
The second lady came back to her senses and saw that it was her. She forced a smile and said, "Didn't you tell me to go to rest a long time ago? Why haven't you fallen asleep yet?"
Aunt Hu said: "I was going to sleep, so I thought my wife must be hungry, so I went to get a bowl of noodles."
With that said, he motioned to the little girl to put the noodles on the table.
The second lady has no appetite now. When she opens and closes her eyes, she sees the gray death face of the third lady.
No! She had to talk, otherwise she wouldn't even be able to sleep, let alone eating noodles.
"Mommy!" She grabbed Nanny Hu's hand, "I have something to tell you!"
Aunt Hu had been with her for many years, and it was rare to see the Second Madam so frightened. Seeing her like this, she knew something big was going on, so she immediately told the little girl: "Go and watch outside."
The little girl agreed and went out.
"Madam, don't be afraid." Aunt Hu comforted her softly, "If you have anything to do, please tell me slowly, I will listen to you."
How could the second lady not be afraid? It was a quiet night, the chanting in the front had stopped, and the candlelight flickered, making the dream seem more real and terrifying.
She looked around and saw no one, so she lowered her voice and told her dream.
"Mommy, the third brother and sister came to see me!" the second lady cried, "I did something wrong, so she came to me!"
Aunt Hu broke out in a cold sweat. She thought about it carefully and comforted her: "Madam, you have been too tired these past two days. People say that you think about everything during the day and dream about it at night. You feel guilty for Miss Seven, so you are so tired."
It's not the third lady who would have such a dream..."
"No!" The second lady's voice was slightly sharp, and she grabbed Nanny Hu's hand, eager to get approval, "It's so true, you know? Her hands were so cold, as if they were frozen to the bone. I still remember that feeling...
…”
The second lady held her wrist again and couldn't help but tremble.
"I'm sorry for her! I'm sorry for her!" The second lady cried out, "I became an accomplice! Mother!"
The second wife is over forty years old and has been in charge of the family for many years. She is always kind and steady in front of others. Aunt Hu can't remember how many years she has not seen her like this. She looks as frightened as a little girl.
"lady……"
"She said retribution would be passed on to the children. What if it was true? My eldest sister is already like that. If something happens to San'er and Liu'er, how can I survive?"
Seeing her like this, Aunt Hu had no choice but to hug her tightly and shouted: "Madam!"
When the second lady drank from her, a look of confusion appeared in her eyes.
Aunt Hu sighed and said softly: "Since Madam is worried, then make up for it! The Third Madam is a reasonable person and knows that you didn't mean it. As long as you have the intention to compensate, she will definitely understand."
"Compensation..." the second lady murmured and repeated, and she also woke up, "Yes, compensation! How can I compensate? Treat Xiaoqi kindly? Of course. What else? And..."
She remembered the words in her dream.
Third sister-in-law, how wronged I am! I have never harmed anyone, why did I end up like this!
How wronged I am!
injustice……
The second lady closed her eyes.
Should she be asked to avenge her?
How is this possible?
How could she do it!
…
Xinyuan.
Yang Shu looked through the autopsy documents.
A guard in black stood beside him, his back straight like a gun.
"So, Mr. Jiang has determined that that person is Geng San?"
The black-clothed guard said: "Geng San had injured his leg in his early years. Mr. Jiang found scars on the leg bones. His height and age are consistent."
Yang Shu nodded and sighed: "Unexpectedly, a dignified gold medal spy actually fell into the humble Ming family!"
There are countless spies in the Imperial City Department, and only a handful of them can be awarded gold medals.
Yang Shu has been in the Imperial City Division for three years and has only met two gold medal spies, one of whom was a faceless spy.
Even if he is the Imperial City Siti Dian, there is no way of knowing where the remaining three have gone.
Every gold medal spy is trained with huge human and financial resources. There is a saying within the Imperial City Division: A gold medal spy is worth 10,000 elite soldiers.
In fact, what a gold medal spy can do, ten thousand elite soldiers may not be able to do.
For example, during the reign of Taizu, Qi and Chu were at war, and the Northern Hu wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to invade the south. A gold-medal spy sent the news in time, allowing Taizu to withdraw his troops in time, thus shattering Lord Hu's conspiracy.
If the news had not been received at that time, the newly pacified north might have fallen into the hands of Beihu.
Ten years ago, the case of Prince Liuyang's rebellion was prevented by a gold-medal spy named Geng San who got the information before the incident occurred and prevented it from causing a catastrophe.
Losing a gold medal spy is an immeasurable loss to the Imperial City Division.
"The cause of death was... a fracture of the neck bone?" Yang Shu was incredulous, "Geng San's martial arts is his strong point, right?"
The black-clothed guard nodded: "Yes. The roster within the department says that Geng San's martial arts can be ranked first in the Imperial City Department."
"That's weird." Yang Shu murmured, "The number one in the Imperial City Division is rare in the world. How could he have his neck broken? Where does the Ming family come from?"
He thought for a long time and asked: "Is there anything going on in the county prince's palace?"
The guard in black shook his head: "No."
Yang Shu smiled and said: "My cousin is not too stupid. It is better to be still than to move at this moment. The more he moves, the more likely he is to make mistakes."
"Geng San has been dead for ten years," the black-clothed guard said. "Even if we find the bones, it will be difficult to find clues. The prince does not need to worry."
"Lei Hong said earlier that this matter may not necessarily have anything to do with him. Now that Geng San's bones have appeared in the Ming family, I think he can't escape the connection - the Ming family was working for him." Yang Shu sneered, "I said before
I didn’t take the Ming family seriously, but now that I think about it, I really can’t ignore it. To be able to kill Geng San, the Ming family is not an easy person.”
"It's a pity that Mrs. Ming San is dead." The black-clothed guard said, "According to Miss Ming Qi, it is very likely that she was often sent out by the Ming family to receive guests. If she were alive, she must have known a lot about the Ming family.
secret."
"Maybe she will die because she knows better." Yang Shu paused and suddenly laughed, "Now the two things have become one thing, which is exactly what she wanted."
The guard in black didn't understand: "Young Master?"
Yang Shu said: "It is very strange that Mrs. Ming San will die. She died sooner or later, but she died at this time. There must be a special reason. If we want to investigate Geng San's death, we must find out.
Family, to find out the family, it’s easiest to start with the cause of Mrs. Mingsan’s death, doesn’t it become one thing?”
"Isn't this just right?" The guard in black said, "Young Master doesn't need to do anything more to make Miss Ming Qi available to us. I think she will do her best to avenge her mother."
"That's not bad." Yang Shu said happily, "Then let's see what she does next. She can be involved in things, but she has to fight for any treatment."
