She couldn't find anything out from her second uncle's place, but from her father's place, she felt that she could still gossip.
"What's the matter?" Xu Jin asked with a smile.
Recently, his daughter has been pestering him to ask some questions, mostly related to the court, and he is happy to talk about them.
After all, the things a father should do have been taken away by his old father over the years. Now he finally has the opportunity to show off in front of his daughter, and he is really happy about it.
"Second Uncle and the Queen, do you have a deep quarrel?"
Hearing this question, the smile on Xu Jin's face froze slightly, and he looked at his daughter who seemed to have guessed something, and whispered: "Younger, don't ask about this..."
Xu Mingyi wanted to look at the sky after hearing this.
One or two of them all used the same rhetoric - didn't this tell her clearly that there was indeed something inside?
This reluctance to speak out creates suspense... Who can bear not to ask further questions?
"Father, I will never tell anyone." Xu Mingyi patiently discussed: "Now I have a lot of contact with the Queen, and I know more, so I can be aware of it so as to avoid touching things that I shouldn't touch again.
Taboo——"
Well, although this statement is somewhat hypocritical, it is not entirely hypocritical.
"This matter, tsk, that's all..." Xu Jin shook his head and sighed: "You'd better stop asking."
"..." Xu Mingyi took a breath silently, and even faintly felt that his fist was starting to become hard.
Reason reminded her that she should not have such unfilial thoughts.
Then he continued his little patience: "Father, can I ask Akui to go to Qingfeng Building to buy some food and wine later?"
"This..." Xu Jin swallowed, coughed lightly and said, "Let's do it another day."
We can't just fall into my daughter's trap.
Although he really wanted to eat, he was also a man with money.
Although he is indeed richer than his daughter who is extremely rich, it still allows him to achieve the freedom of food without having to sell his dignity and bottom line in front of his children just for the sake of eating.
"That's it..." Xu Mingyi imitated his tone, rubbed her wrist, and said, "I have never mentioned the burn on my wrist to my grandfather."
The last time they had a barbecue in the garden, her father insisted on showing off his skills, but the smell of the barbecue was hard to describe and he accidentally burned her.
But it wasn't serious, and she didn't really take it to heart.
It can be estimated that it should be useful if you take it out and use it at this time.
"Didn't you say there won't be scars? There's no need to mention this little thing to your grandfather..." Xu Jin laughed twice, and his old father seemed to have appeared in front of him, waving a palm as big as a leaf fan and slapping him with strong wind.
terrible picture.
Seeing that his daughter did not comment on this, Xu Jin could only smile and said: "... My father feels that if we bring the food from Qingfeng Tower back to eat, it will ruin its deliciousness. If we have nothing to do in the evening, we might as well go directly to Qingfeng Tower.
how?"
Xu Mingyi smiled: "Father is right."
"We really can't say much about the matter between your second uncle and the Queen..." Xu Jin sighed quietly, "Generally speaking, a four-character summary is enough."
Xu Mingyi looked at his father.
Which four words?
Irreconcilable?
Xu Jin bent down slightly and whispered: "It started with chaos and ended with abandonment..."
"..." Xu Mingyi's eyes suddenly widened as wide as his third eye.
What happened?
"Then...who is the abandoned one?" she asked in a low voice.
Xu Jin sighed again and asked instead: "What do you think?"
Xu Mingyi fell silent with a complex expression.
Seems obvious...
No wonder the second uncle hasn’t married yet. Was he hurt by the empress?
Can……
She felt that the Queen was not suitable for such a person.
Could it be that it was due to family issues and forced by helplessness?
Entering the palace is such a big event, and there must be a lot of things you can't help but do.
Xu Mingyi thought a lot in a flash, and finally sighed with emotion.
She really had never thought that there would be such an entanglement, and she only thought that there was something worth mentioning. Now that she knew such an inside story, she did not feel the pleasure of catching a glimpse of the gossip as she wished, and she only felt her heart heavy.
She didn't want to ask any more questions about the rest.
It's meaningless, it just exposes people's scars.
"Not many people knew about this back then, but now that the status disparity is here, we can just pretend that this old incident never happened..." Xu Jin explained.
Xu Mingyi nodded and responded seriously.
She turned back and glanced at the courtyard behind her that was almost out of sight.
She had heard about the relationship between men and women, and had read many books about it, but perhaps she had never really felt the same way, so in fact she still couldn't figure it out - was the second uncle angry?
Or is it that the word love is really different from other emotions, and is it really so difficult to let go of it?
But no matter what, it can be seen that the second uncle must have been very affectionate back then.
If you just feel angry and are angry in your heart, then why bother even refusing to get a wife?
Xu Mingyi was uncharacteristically pondering this matter in his mind for a long time.
Even when writing a letter to Wu Chao, I felt a little distracted for no reason.
This time, she was not in the mood to talk too much about trivial matters.
Apart from explaining what was about to happen in January, she only talked about the current situation of the Third Eye. After folding the letter, she took out the peace charm she had asked for from Hanming Temple today and put it into the envelope.
inside.
After experiencing rebirth, she now treats the things of gods and Buddhas with a lot of awe.
Today in Hanming Temple, she also sincerely recited it in her heart for a long time, and generously promised incense, money, and tributes - when Wu Chao escaped this disaster, she would go to Hanming Temple to fulfill her wish.
Ten thousand taels of silver, she made a big deal.
This amount of money was the last thing she wanted to save in her life. She hoped that Wu Chao would be able to give it away as she wished.
To be honest, she had never worried about one thing so repeatedly.
Maybe it's because this is a knot in her mind from her previous life, and knots in her heart always make people a little abnormal.
I hope that this gift of ten thousand taels of silver can put an end to this knot in my heart and give her back, ahem, no... I want to give the Wu family a complete Wu Chao.
…
In the next few days, after Princess Jingrong woke up, news gradually spread that she was suffering from hysteria.
There was a lot of discussion about this speculation in the city.
Some people say that the eldest princess was driven crazy by the ghost of Jia Junzhi, while others say that she didn't wake up at all, but it was just rhetoric to the outside world.
There were also people who came to the house under the guise of visiting to see the excitement and find out what was going on, but they were all rejected by Princess Yufeng on the grounds that 'my mother is sick and it is not suitable to see guests'.
But early in the morning on this day, the sound of crying could be heard one after another in the eldest princess's mansion.
