"Why are you talking so much nonsense to her?" Luo Lingxian's face flushed red, and she said angrily, "It's just that there are two loyal heroes in the Marquis' Mansion, so they are right in everything! I don't believe that there is no place to reason in this world. I'm going to find the princess and ask her to help my eldest sister!"
Mingyu looked at the sad and angry Luo mother and daughter with pity. Luo Lingxiu looked pale and pale, and it was hard to tell what she was thinking. With a long sigh, Mingyu shook her head and said, "You really don't know anything. The madam used to love her sister-in-law very much..."
Before Mingyu could finish, Luo Lingxiu screamed, suppressing Mingyu's voice and shouting, "Don't say it, don't say it! Everything you said is fake, fake!"
Mrs. Luo hugged her daughter tightly, comforted her for a while, and said to Mingyu angrily: "Okay, tell me, tell me what happened to my third sister! If you can't give me a clear answer, I will sue you!"
Luo Lingxiu curled up into a ball and cried loudly. The nun's hat on her head was rubbed off by her, revealing a bald head with a head of black hair that had been shaved clean. Hearing what Madam Luo said, Luo Lingxiu raised her head from Madam Luo's arms in horror, her face covered with tears and snot. She grabbed Madam Luo's clothes and cried, "Mom, don't believe what Mingyu said, she is lying to me!"
Seeing this scene, Mingyu suddenly felt a little bored. Even at this point, Luo Lingxiu was still obsessed with covering up her own ugly deeds and had no remorse for the wrong things she had done. If it weren't for her good luck and if the Tartars hadn't attacked, Mingyu would have taken the opportunity to leave the Marquis' Mansion. She didn't know how many times she would have been harmed by this black-hearted woman.
"Sister-in-law, when the Marquis' Mansion proposed marriage, why didn't you tell Lord Luo and Mrs. Luo that you wanted to marry the second young master?" Mingyu asked lightly.
"What did you say?" Mrs. Luo, who was patting Luo Lingxiu's back to calm down, was stunned. She looked up, her face full of disbelief.
Luo Lingxian was also stunned. After all, she was an unmarried girl with a thin skin. Her face turned red when she mentioned marriage. She gritted her teeth and said, "You...you...you are talking nonsense!"
"You are reluctant to give up your position as the wife of the Marquis's Mansion, and you think the eldest son is cold-tempered, so you insist on having an affair with the second master in private..." Mingyu turned to Madam Luo and asked, "Madam Luo, you also have a son. If your daughter-in-law was like this, would you hate her so much that you want to peel her skin off?"
"No, it's impossible! My Lingxiu has always been well-educated and virtuous. How could she do such a thing?" Mrs. Luo shook her head and stuttered. She had doubts in her heart. Her third sister praised Lingxiu highly when they met last time. How could she hate Lingxiu to such an extent this time? It didn't make sense.
Luo Lingxiu was embarrassed and anxious, her face turned the color of liver. She grabbed Mrs. Luo's hand and said, "She is lying, mother, don't believe her!"
Mingyu shook her head, "Whether you admit it or not, the fact is this. From now on, you and I will have nothing to do with each other. I just can't stand your mother and sister who spared no effort to protect you, trust you, run around for you, and beg for help. You, the instigator, hid the shame from them and still refuse to admit it. Madam is so good to you. When something like this happened, the first thing she thought of was to protect your reputation. But what did you do? You ran back to your parents' home as soon as you returned to Beijing. You were afraid that she would harm you, and you wanted to remarry with great fanfare. You have disappointed Madam, so don't blame her for being ruthless to you."
Even at this point, Miao never did anything to her own niece, but Mingyu could do it, just like Luo Lingxiu did to her. She knew that her heart was hard enough, and she had no pressure to push Luo Lingxiu into the well and then add insult to injury.
Luo Lingxiu could no longer hold on, and she fell on the edge of the bed, howling and crying, saying intermittently: "I...what can I do...the madam wants to marry me...how can I not marry...Sima Xi is good in your eyes...he is just a heartless and ungrateful bastard...he deserves to die...it would be better if all the men in the Sima family died...no descendants..."
Vicious curses kept coming out of Luo Lingxiu's mouth. Without looking at her face, Mingyu could guess that she looked ferocious and shrewd. There was no trace of the dignity and elegance of the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion when she first met her. Without the identity of the mistress that the Marquis's Mansion had given her, which brought her glory and halo, Luo Lingxiu was now just a shrew.
"Do you think this result is unfair to you?" Mingyu asked.
Luo Lingxiu was busy crying and cursing, and didn't hear Mingyu's words at all. Luo Lingxian at the side spoke up, somewhat unconvinced, "Even if my sister did something wrong, you don't have to force her to death! Look at this place, is this where people live?"
"Then you are wrong." Mingyu said leisurely, "This place was given by the Queen Mother. If you are not satisfied, go and talk to the Queen Mother. It is wrong to force her to death. My sister-in-law is here. She has food to eat, clothes to wear, and a place to live. She doesn't have to work. She is much better off than those beggars on the street who are half-naked and hungry. They are not dead, so she will not die either."
Luo Lingxian was choked by Mingyu's words. Looking at Luo Lingxiu's reaction, she knew that she was in the wrong. Her sister had done something shameless and it was against the ethics of women. As a girl, she couldn't bring herself to continue talking about this matter. She held it in for a long time and didn't say anything.
"I was wrong!" Luo Lingxiu, who had been crying, suddenly looked up, her face full of tears and snot, and her bald head, which was very funny. Seeing Mingyu and her mother and sister looking at her in surprise, Luo Lingxiu didn't care about the embarrassment and spoke again with a thick face, "I was wrong! Mingyu, I really know I was wrong, please forgive me!"
Luo Ling stomped her feet in anger. She was used to being arrogant, so how could she tolerate Luo Lingxiu bowing her head to Mingyu? "Sister, what nonsense are you talking about? Why are you apologizing to her? If anyone needs to apologize, she should apologize to you!"
Luo Lingxiu ignored the angry girl, wiped her face, looked at Mingyu and said: "Mingyu, sister-in-law knows she is wrong, don't pay attention to Lingxian, she is young and ignorant, don't bother with her, just forgive sister-in-law!"
"I came to see you today, not to make you repent or beg for my forgiveness." Mingyu shook her head.
Luo Lingxiu nodded desperately and said, "I know, I know. You have always been smart and have your own ideas, much better than my sister-in-law. My sister-in-law was bewitched and jealous that you were better than her in everything, so she did something wrong. Now my sister-in-law has been punished and has suffered retribution. She knows she was wrong. Mingyu, you must forgive me!"
"Yes, yes!" Mrs. Luo, who was hugging Luo Lingxiu, also quickly agreed, looking at Mingyu eagerly, and pleading, "Second Madam, you see, Lingxiu knows she was wrong, and she has suffered so much. We won't let her marry again, and let her stay with the eldest master for the rest of her life! Please go and ask the Queen to let her practice at home, and don't let Lingxiu become a nun. This place is too hard!"
"I don't have the ability to change the Queen's mind." Mingyu said lightly, looking at Luo Lingxiu who was originally hopeful, but then turned into a face full of resentment because of her rejection, and continued: "You don't have to feel that you have been wronged and it's unfair to you. No one has suffered less than you. There is no fairness in this world. When you were in Tianshui, when you bullied others, did you ever think about fairness and grievance for others? You have no right to resent anyone. If you have a conscience, you will not do these wrong things. If you and the Second Master are in love with each other, I have nothing to say, but you shouldn't murder innocent people just because you can't get it."
Luo Lingxiu was completely disappointed. She covered her face and started crying again. Mingyu took one last look at her, turned around and walked out. The moment she stepped out of the door, she heard Luo Lingxiu's shrill and terrified cry behind her, "Please, I was wrong, I really regret it! You can ask for anything, but don't let me live here as a nun. I'm only eighteen years old... Sima Xi never touched me. I'm not his person. I'm not the mistress of the Marquisate!"
Mingyu paused on her way out, but did not look back at Luo Lingxiu. If she did something wrong, she would have to pay the price. She could tolerate Luo Lingxiu's tricks to bully her, but she could not tolerate Luo Lingxiu's disregard for human life and her attempts to murder her and Lixiang several times. She could not be forgiven for doing something wrong just because she was young. Luo Lingxiu's future life would be a life of seclusion and devotion, with no chance of being in the outside world. With Mrs. Luo who loved her, she did not have to worry about her food, clothing and expenses. Compared with those who worked hard all their lives but could not even have a full meal, she was already doing well.
What's more, Luo Lingxiu's fate was decided by the Queen, and even if Mingyu wanted to change it, she was powerless.
Coming out of Huang'en Temple and leaving the dark and damp wing, Ming Yuwu's mood, which had been gloomy for a few days, finally became as bright and sunny as the sunshine at noon. It really proved the saying, "I feel relieved when I know you are not doing well."
Mingyu had been gone for a long time, and Xu Mingye was getting a little anxious waiting in the carriage. He got off the carriage several times and walked around the entrance of the nunnery. However, the Huang'en Nunnery was full of nuns and male guests were not allowed to enter. He could only worry and sit back in the carriage.
He couldn't remember how many times he had opened the curtain to look out, Mingyu finally came out with Lixiang. Xu Mingye smiled with his eyes slanted, "Why, when did you become so close to her that you talked for so long?"
Mingyu smiled, took the hand that Xu Mingye extended to get on the carriage, and rolled her eyes at Xu Mingye. She was a great people's teacher, and she didn't care about Xu Mingye, a narcissistic and sharp-tongued problem teenager. No matter how steady, sensible, intelligent and talented Xu Mingye was in public, he was just a rude and arrogant 17-year-old kid in front of his family.
Just after I got home, before I even reached the gate of the courtyard, Madam Liu came to greet me and said, "Miss, a maid from the Marquis's Mansion came and said that the Second Young Master Sima has arrived in the capital, and the Marquis's wife wants you to come over."
