Wei Heng was not annoyed at all, and said calmly: "Man, you have seen it now, go back."

He was so calm, but Mei Qingyun was a little uncomfortable with it. She looked at him steadily and smiled: "I haven't appreciated enough of your embarrassed look."

After saying that, Mei Qingyun bent down and placed the food box on the ground, slowly opened the food box, and took out two meats, one vegetable, a bowl of white rice, a pot of wine, a wine glass, and a pair of chopsticks.

She handed the chopsticks to Wei Heng and said in a condescending tone: "Eat, this is the last time you will eat such a good meal. The wine is also your favorite green plum wine, give it a try."

Wei Heng didn't reply. He took the chopsticks silently, sat on the floor, picked up the rice, picked up a piece of meat and started eating.

Seeing this, Mei Qingyun felt like she was punched in the cotton. In the past, if she said something unpleasant, Wei Heng would hit her back, but now it fell on deaf ears. Seeing that Wei Heng was eating well, she frowned: "Wei Heng, aren't you afraid that I will poison the food?"

Wei Heng paused, raised his head to look at her, and said in a calm tone: "If you poisoned me, then I have to thank you for letting me die of poisoning before going to the guillotine and leaving a whole body. However, you are smart People would not do stupid things at times like this and involve themselves.”

Mei Qingyun was choked by his words, but he was right. She would not do such a stupid thing. She sneered and asked: "Wei Heng, you will be on the guillotine tomorrow, aren't you afraid?"

Wei Heng had a completely drunk attitude: "It's a fait accompli, what's the use of being afraid? Just live today well."

When Mei Qingyun heard this, she immediately became angry and lowered her voice and yelled: "You walked away in style and died. Have you ever thought about me?"

Wei Heng was at a loss: "I remember that according to the laws of this dynasty, if an official commits a crime, his ex-wife will not be harmed."

Mei Qingyun felt aggrieved when she thought about her recent experiences, and asked: "You bastard, why do you want to be a corrupt official when you are a good person?"

Wei Heng didn't expect that she would ask such a question, and he fell into silence for an instant. There are things that happen for the first time and will happen countless times later.

When someone comes to bribe him with one hundred taels, he will be very disdainful and refuse without hesitation. The next time someone comes to bribe him with five hundred taels, he can also refuse. Later, someone comes with one thousand taels. He can still refuse to bribe him, even two thousand taels or three thousand taels.

Later, someone came to bribe him with five thousand taels, and he was moved.

Temptations are placed in front of you again and again. You can refuse them at first, but you can't refuse them later. How many honest officials are there who are truly honest? There are countless officials who accept bribes, ranging from low-ranking petty officials to high-ranking officials. So what if there is one more?

However, he was the unlucky one among so many corrupt officials. He escaped time and time again, but finally fell into the hands of Gu Jingxi.

Seeing that he didn't reply, Mei Qingyun became even more angry and said: "Wei Heng, why can't you be a good official who asks for orders for the people? You have to be a corrupt official. You have to worry about marriage at my age. Worry, I will be thirty after the Chinese New Year. At this age, how do you expect me to find a satisfactory in-law?"

Wei Heng never expected that she would actually complain to him about this. He raised his eyes and looked at her angry and aggrieved look, and suddenly smiled: "Miss Mei, what are you saying? You are as beautiful as a fairy, and you have outstanding talents. The suitor You have so many people, but you still need to worry about marriage? Isn’t it your biggest wish to leave me? Now that you have got your wish, why are you still worried? "

Mei Qingyun's eyes turned red with anger: "You made me become an abandoned woman at such an age, and I am also a second-married daughter. How can I not be annoyed by this? It was obviously you who said you would treat me well, but you failed to bear the consequences. You married me, took concubines one after another, and became a corrupt official. The whole family was ruined. You ruined half of my life. You are a bastard!"

Wei Heng thought it was funny: "You haven't cleared your mind yourself and are half-hearted, so what qualifications do you have to ask me to be single-minded? You think Gu Jingxi is good, why do you want to break off the engagement? Why don't you marry him and choose me?"

No man can tolerate his wife comparing him to another man, especially when that man is his wife's former fiancé.

Gu Jingxi is the shadow of his life. He will never be as good as Gu Jingxi. When Gu Jingxi was favored by the emperor, he had just won the imperial examination and was sent to work as a seventh-grade small county magistrate, and he was not yet the magistrate of a wealthy county.

With great difficulty, he was promoted to the fourth-rank magistrate by his brother-in-law Han Jin, and Gu Jingxi was already a third-rank imperial official, the minister of Dali Temple among the ninth ministers, and a favorite of the emperor. His official position will definitely continue to rise.

Apart from being a normal man, Gu Jingxi is better than him in everything. Now he listens to the jailer's gossip and learns that Gu Jingxi's hidden illness has been cured and that Mrs. Gu is pregnant.

He was no longer better than Gu Jingxi, and he became a prisoner about to be guillotined.

Mei Qingyun was speechless for a moment. That was because Gu Jingxi couldn't be a normal man. Although she liked Gu Jingxi, she didn't like him to the point where she had to be her lover. How many girls would be willing to marry such a man and remain a widow?

Wei Heng saw her glaring at him with hatred, and he no longer had the idea of ​​arguing with her in the past. He said quietly: "Since you have hated me for so many years, then continue to hate me. If you don't hate me one day, Me, I still feel uncomfortable."

After saying that, he continued to eat. He was born in a noble family and received good table manners education from an early age. Even though he became a prisoner, he still maintained the demeanor expected of a wealthy family when eating, eating elegantly and chewing carefully.

Mei Qingyun looked at him like this and felt at a loss. She came to see his jokes, but she didn't seem to see his jokes. When faced with life and death, he didn't even have the slightest fear.

This was the first time she had seen Wei Heng like this.

In her impression, Wei Heng was always a coward who argued with her hysterically and was so angry that he wanted to kill her but didn't dare to do it.

She opened her mouth, not knowing what to say, and she lost interest in venting her anger at Wei Heng.

Mei Qingyun looked at him for a long time, took a deep breath, and said to him like charity: "Wei Heng, for the sake of the letter of divorce, if you have any unfulfilled wishes, as long as they are not excessive and I can do it, I can help you achieve whatever you want, but I can only mention one thing.”

Wei Heng's face paused, and he was silent for a while, and then said: "After I die, find someone to help me collect my body, and bury me on the hillside at the intersection on the road to Lingyun Temple, with the tomb facing the east."

Mei Qingyun looked surprised. She didn't expect him to make such a simple request. She said in disbelief: "This is your only wish?"

Wei Heng looked at her and nodded gently: "Yes, that's the only wish."
