"So Gu Jiarou's body still hasn't been found?" In the afternoon, Mingjin and Gu Mingheng sat in the yard to eat.

Gu Mingheng just came back from dinner at the palace.

Mingjin had just woken up.

After hearing the news brought back by Gu Mingheng, Ming Jin was speechless for a moment.

She didn't expect that Gu Jiarou would die in this way.

However, Ming Jin couldn't feel any sympathy for this person.

In the previous life, Sister Xu was killed by her.

One corpse, two lives.

In the final analysis, it's nothing but cause and effect.

But she might not know who killed her until she died. If she knew, I don’t know how she would react.

Killed by his own mother and uncle...

This way of dying is really unbelievable.

I'm afraid even the storytellers couldn't come up with such a script.

"I can't find it. The cliff is a thousand feet deep, and there is no way down. It's covered in fog, so I can only go down a little bit, but I can't reach the bottom."

"We sent several waves of people, including the Five City Guards, the Imperial Guards, and even the Imperial Guards, but in the end, the matter was left unresolved."

After listening to this, Ming Jin didn't say anything.

"Then Xiao Jian will take charge of all the matters?" As she said this, she picked out a piece of boneless fish for Gu Mingheng.

She found that although Gu Mingheng had a modest appetite and ate everything, he was easy to feed.

But I really like fish.

Whenever there is fish on the table, he will definitely eat more.

Therefore, every time Gu Mingheng came to eat, Ming Jin would ask someone to prepare a portion of fish.

Gu Mingheng didn't notice it and continued eating, saying "Eat by yourself, don't bother me", and then he explained to Mingjin.

"He told his brother that he was afraid that Mingyao's presence would affect Yue Qing. He didn't expect Ancheng to go out that day."

It’s exactly what Mingjin thought.

But Mingjin didn't believe it. This matter had nothing to do with Concubine Xian.

I'm afraid the mastermind behind this incident is Empress Xian.

However, Mingjin also knew that the matter could only end here and it was impossible to investigate further. Whether in public or private terms, the royal family could not afford to reveal the true truth.

Gu Mingheng obviously also knew that Xiao Jian was just taking the blame for Concubine Xian.

Those who harm others will always be harmed by others.

But Gu Mingheng couldn't help but sigh, it's fate.

If Concubine Xian had not been so cruel in the beginning, she would not have lost her daughter now.

"I was in the palace today and heard that Concubine Xian fainted."

"Yue Qing is still reflecting on her mistakes behind closed doors, and An Cheng has done something like this again. My brother has grown disgusted with her. Although he hasn't punished her openly, I'm afraid her favor will come to an end."

"The Xiao family was completely ruined because of this incident."

"The Xiao family was raided, Xiao Jian was executed, and although the women of the Xiao family were not implicated, several of the Xiao family's sons were also exiled."

"The Xiao family is completely finished."

"It's time for her to live in peace."

"It's time to live in peace." Ming Jin said calmly, "Because of her own selfish desires, she killed her own daughter. I'm afraid she will remember this for the rest of her life."

"She should remember it, remember it well."

However, thinking of Concubine Xian's true character, she might still blame her and Yixian, thinking that it was because of them that Gu Jiarou died, the Xiao family fell, and she came to this point.

Think so.

Ming Jin couldn't help but feel that she and Ming Yao were almost going to be mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

No matter what happens, I always blame others.

He just knows how to push everything onto others.

It seems that this can alleviate their guilt and make them feel innocent.

"Be careful when you enter the palace in the future. I'm afraid she will become desperate and do something bad to you." Mingjin told Gu Mingheng.

Gu Mingheng smiled and agreed with her, but he didn't take Concubine Xian seriously in his heart.

"And one more thing."

Gu Mingheng and Ming Jin said, "Ming Yao has been executed by the order of the emperor. The Ming family has not been affected, but..." He paused, "After what happened, it will be difficult for your father and your brother to be reused in the future."

He hesitated and said, "...I didn't speak for them either."

"You shouldn't have spoken."

Ming Jin took over his words without any blame: "It's good enough that His Majesty can let us go. If you continue to persuade him, it will only make His Majesty more disgusted with the Ming family, and it will also implicate you."

This is a blessing in disguise.

Unlike Ming Yuandu who is eager to move up to a higher level, Ming Jin just hopes that the Ming family can remain as it is.

The first bird to stick its head out gets shot.

Those who strive to be the best may enjoy temporary glory, but they may also easily fail.

Instead of being cautious every day, it is better to maintain the status quo.

It's pretty good now.

Mingjin took Gu Mingheng's hand from the table and said, "Really, it's fine now. I think grandma must think so too."

After hearing her say this, Gu Mingheng finally breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't say anything else and held Mingjin's hand instead.

The two looked at each other under the tree.

In each other's eyes, besides the golden light, there is each other.

……

The next day.

The news of Ming Yao's execution reached Ming Jin's ears.

Mingjin was writing by the window at that time, and the words were brought in by Huasui.

The words conveyed by Wu Jilai.

Although he already knew the result, Ming Jin still hesitated to speak after hearing it.

She fought with Mingyao for two lifetimes.

In her previous life, Mingyao always suppressed her, but she didn't expect that in this life, she would die like this.

The people betrayed their relatives.

There was not even anyone to collect the bodies.

But Mingjin didn't say anything.

Disgust, fear, resentment, jealousy...these emotions had ended long ago in the previous life.

Now that she heard that she was dead, she had no other emotions.

The warm winter sun is nice.

"Got it." Ming Jin continued to write with his head down.

As for where Mingyao's body went, it had nothing to do with her.

She didn't ask.

Hua Sui didn't leave.

"Is there anything else?" Ming Jin also noticed it, so he looked up and glanced at Hua Sui.

Hua Sui hesitated, not knowing whether he should say it.

Ming Jin held the wolf hair in his hand and said, "Speak now, you can't hide anything."

When Hua Sui heard this, his cheeks turned slightly red.

He did not hesitate any longer and told Ming Jin the truth: "Wu Ji also said one more thing. Madam...seems to be really crazy."

"what?"

Ming Jin blinked, thinking he had misheard.

She looked at Hua Sui again.

Hua Sui looked at her and said, "I heard that several doctors went to the Marquis' Mansion yesterday, but they all shook their heads and left. That is..."

Hua Sui muttered softly, she was obviously still bothered by what Ming Yao said that day.

“I don’t know if it’s true or not.”

Mingjin said nothing.

She really didn't expect it.

Yesterday she sent someone to the Marquis' Mansion to deliver a message to her grandmother, telling her of His Majesty's arrangements, but her grandmother did not send anyone to tell her about it.

But it's just like Hua Sui said.

No one knew whether it was true or not, she was just a little dazed for a moment.

The wind blows in.

The bamboo bell hanging in front of the window made a tinkling sound.

It took Ming Jin a long time to come back to her senses. She sat on the chair and was silent for a long time before she said, "...I know, let's go down."
