It was not the first time for Mingyu to visit Prince Qin's Mansion, but it was the first time she knew that the small courtyard prepared for her here was so delicate and elegant. It was right next to the upper room. Besides all kinds of flowers she liked, there was also a swing And Tingzi, she fell in love with it immediately.
"You and Mio live here, and it is cleaned every day." Mingxi said to Mingyu.
"Can I live with you?" Mio asked suspiciously.
Mingxi coughed lightly, "Mio'er, we have grown up and can't live together anymore, you live with Mingyu."
Mio'er is naive and naive, she doesn't know whether a man and a woman are close or not, and he doesn't want others to talk about her behind her back.
"Okay." Mio nodded half-understood, she was very happy to get along with Mingyu anyway.
After Mingxi had lunch with them, he went to Lu's house to look for Lu Shiming.
Lu Shiming was very happy with Mingxi's return, "I heard that you entered the palace this morning, and I thought you would stay in the palace today."
"Mingyu and I are both out of the palace. She is in Prince Qin's mansion and will come over tomorrow." Mingxi said with a smile.
"I haven't seen Mingyu for more than half a year. Last time I heard that she was assassinated in the palace. Fortunately, she was fine. Both your grandmother and little aunt went to the palace to see her." Lu Shiming said in a low voice, "You Have you suffered outside for half a year?"
Ming Xi said, "We didn't suffer, we had a good life. When we were in the wasteland city, Teng Ye and the others regarded me as the young master of the Fang family, and they didn't dare to do anything to me."
Lu Shiming frowned upon hearing this, "Teng Ye doesn't know Fang Yunsong too well. With his temperament, it is absolutely impossible for him to be a traitor."
"Grandfather knew Fang Yunsong?" Mingxi asked.
"I used to study in Fang Family Academy, and Fang Yunsong was my teacher." Lu Shiming said, although he has not been in Fang Family Academy for a long time, he is a teacher for a day and a father for life. Fang Yunsong used to be his teacher. Can't be changed.
Mingxi whispered, "Grandfather, there is something I want to tell you."
Seeing Mingxi's serious tone, Lu Shiming couldn't help asking seriously, "What's the matter?"
"When Teng Ye was caught by me, he said that his grandfather was in the same party as them." Mingxi said, "I'm afraid he did something to frame you."
"Same party?" Lu Shiming was stunned for a moment, "I have never had friendship with Teng Ye, and we can't even talk on weekdays, so we even spouted blood."
Ming Xi said, "The emperor also knows about this, but he should know that this is Teng Ye's nonsense, so he didn't believe it."
Lu Shiming raised his head and looked at his grandson. If it was really just Teng Ye spitting blood, Ming Xi would not have come to tell him about it specifically, "What do you find, continue to talk."
"On the way back to Kyoto, I asked someone to check the people who had been in the capital before Teng Ye. One of them was named Lu, named Lu Shizhou. Now he is the prefect of Shenzhou Prefecture, and the secret guards have already arrested him. , is being escorted to the capital city, this man...has he ever begged his grandfather to do something?" Ming Xi asked in a low voice.
Lu Shizhou? Lu Shiming's face changed. Of course he knew that this person was the nephew of the Lu family's branch. He came to the Lu family when he came to Beijing to report on his work last year. He was asking him to accommodate one thing.
"He wanted to open a river trade in Shenzhou Prefecture. At that time, some people in the court objected. He came to ask me for help, but the opening of trade was for the people of Shenzhou Prefecture. I saw that he was dedicated to the welfare of the people, so I said more in front of the emperor. A few words, does it have something to do with this?" Lu Shiming asked in surprise.
"Tengye wanted to transport weapons, so he couldn't use the maritime trade in Tianjin City, he could only use the river channel from Shenzhou Prefecture, and...it was also found that Lu Shizhou was in collusion with the salt dealer, and all the money fell into the hands of Tengye." Mingxi said , These were only found out not long ago, and they should not have been delivered to Uncle Six.
"What?" Lu Shiming was shocked, "That bastard... is so rebellious!"
Ming Xi said, "Apart from speaking well for Lu Shizhou in front of the emperor, have you done anything else?"
Lu Shiming shook his head, "Let's think about it again, ever since I spoke for him in front of the emperor, my colleagues in the court have regarded him as my nephew, and they will treat everything badly. I don't know what else he has done .”
"Grandfather is loyal to the emperor, and the emperor will not trust Teng Ye based on these." Ming Xi said, he will come to remind Lu Shiming, and he is also worried that he will be used by others.
"I will go to the palace to plead guilty immediately." Lu Shiming said, "You don't need the emperor to ask me about this matter, I will tell the emperor clearly."
Mingxi didn't stop Lu Shiming, after all, Murong Ke is just his sixth uncle now, and he doesn't know what the sixth uncle will think of the Lu family, if he really believes that Lu Shizhou and Lu Shiming are inseparable, then he can only think of another way .
"You go to your grandmother first, I will go to the palace to see the emperor." Lu Shiming said to Mingxi.
"Okay." Ming Xi nodded slightly. After Lu Shiming left, he also went to the backyard to find Mrs. Pei.
When Mrs. Pei heard that Mingxi was coming back, she was waiting anxiously in the house, and wanted to go directly to the study to find her precious grandson a few times.
"Grandmother." Ming Xi started calling before entering the room.
"My Mingxi..." Mrs. Pei walked out directly, hugging Mingxi in her arms, "Let me see if you have suffered, and see how dark and thin you are, you run away alone What do you go out for, your parents are really relieved."
Ming Xi listened to Pei's muttering and complaining with a smile, hugged him distressedly and shouted, he said with a smile, "Grandma, I am not thinner, I have grown taller, you see, I am as tall as you."
It was only then that Pei discovered that her grandson, who was a little shorter than her before she left, was actually about the same height as her, "That's because he lost weight, and must have suffered outside."
"Grandmother, I took Mingyu out of the palace. She lives in Prince Qin's Mansion today, and I will bring her to visit you tomorrow." Mingxi shifted his attention tactfully.
"I haven't seen Mingyu for a long time. The emperor has kept her in the palace. I don't know if such a young child will be wronged in the palace." Empress of the palace, she didn't worry about Mingyu for a day, not to mention that Yu was just a princess, she was not the emperor's biological daughter, if those concubines were pregnant, would Mingyu still have her current status
Su Xiaoxiao walked to Pei's side, "Mother, doesn't it mean that Yu will come tomorrow? You will see her soon."
"Little aunt." Ming Xi bowed to Su Xiaoxiao.
"Mingxi, come in and sit down. Have you had your lunch yet?" Su Xiaoxiao held Pei's hand and asked Mingxi to follow him back into the house.
Pei immediately said, "Yes, I have someone prepare some snacks, you can eat more."
Mingxi smiled and nodded, "Okay, I'll eat."
