I can tell fortunes, so I’m not easy to mess with [Cross Book]
Chapter 115 Coming out of the closet
Bai Yiling's words were too outrageous, and Sheng Hao didn't believe it at all, he shook his head and smiled and said, "I understand your feelings, but for this sake, is it interesting to be stubborn? There is a red and swollen spot on the back of your neck, The collar isn't high enough, but it doesn't cover it."
In normal times, he wasn't originally a restless character, but when facing Sheng Mian, he wanted to win and see the opponent lose his composure too much, so he could hardly hide his complacency.
Bai Yiling laughed loudly and said, "Oh, there was a mosquito with a cheap mouth last night, and I was bitten. I'm bothering you to notice it. It's really a tricky thing, and it looks like a mouse. If you don't believe me, you can ask My father and several elder brothers, anyway, face saints are all together, no one says the same."
Sheng Duo couldn't bear it any longer, and immediately answered Bai Yiling's words, and said quietly: "So that Second Uncle knows that last night, the illustrious prince Gao Guilie attempted to rape the daughter of King Youzhou, Sang Hongrui, and Injured her, when the King of Linzhang rushed to save her, he encountered the King of Ying patrolling the city, and the whole incident was broken on the spot. We were all at home, and my younger brother was with His Highness Huai Wang all the time. For some reason, I heard about Gao Guilie The person I made an appointment with was originally my younger brother, so I waited to enter the palace overnight, and didn't return to the mansion until the end of the day. Did Second Uncle understand?"
"You, you guys, how could..." Sheng Hao's forehead was dripping with sweat, and he finally started to feel flustered.
"It's time for us to ask you."
Sheng Mian finally spoke, his expression was not as gentle as usual, his brows were deeply furrowed, and anyone could feel the gloom and anger coming from him.As the younger brother who has lived under the same roof with Sheng Mian for more than ten years, Sheng Hao can naturally feel the difference in his emotions.
Sheng Mian said: "Gao Guilie has already said that it was you who just gave him the idea to ask Ling'er out, and it was you who sent someone to imitate His Highness Huai's handwriting. Why did you go to this extent? "
A chilling light burst out from his eyes, Sheng Hao couldn't help taking a step back under such staring eyes, and said loudly: "I don't! What does it have to do with me, it's absolutely nonsense!"
Sheng Mian's eyes sharpened sharply, and he pulled Sheng Hao in front of him, pinched his neck directly, and repeated sharply: "I'm asking why you did this!"
The sudden suffocation made Sheng Hao grab his hand and struggle desperately, Sheng Mian had already thrown him to the ground.
He said coldly: "In the past, I didn't care about you. I didn't feel guilty because I thought my mother killed your mother, but it was meaningless. But you became more and more rampant every day. We also have the blood of the Sheng family on our bodies. I treat you as my younger brother, but you don't cherish the relationship between us, so there is nothing to say."
Sheng Hao fell to the ground and looked up at him, his chest heaved and his expression changed several times. The habit of maintaining his self-esteem in front of Sheng Mian for many years still prevented him from denying it, so he turned to Bai Yiling and asked, "Why didn't you come to the appointment?"
Bai Yiling smiled and didn't answer the question, but at this moment a voice came: "Because of me."
Sheng Hao's body froze, and he turned his head slowly, only to see Sheng Li, who had been silent all this time, stood up from the table, tidied his cuffs slowly, raised his eyes and looked around at the other people who were watching him, and repeated: " The note you sent was originally thrown away by me."
The rest of the people had heard about this before the banquet, but there was not enough time to ask her why, but Sheng Hao was stunned and stared at Sheng Li for a long time before standing up: "You...you overheard me. Talked?"
Sheng Li said: "Oh, if you want to blame, you can only blame yourself for not guarding against me."
Sheng Hao rushed to his forehead and cursed: "Unworthy girl!"
Sheng Li was silent, Sheng Ji was shocked when he heard these three words, and suddenly said: "What did you say? Who is the unworthy girl?"
If Sheng Mian, a father, said this word, it would be the same. No matter what Sheng Li did, it would never be Sheng Hao's turn to scold him!
A terrible conjecture welled up in his mind.
Sheng Hao sneered and said: "Everyone's waist is stiff, so no one will have a hard time today. I tell you clearly, this girl is my daughter, and now it's good to help her father deal with outsiders! What a follower!" She's a slut like a mother, she eats the inside out and the outside grows to the bone."
Sheng Ji was at a loss. He and Sheng Li were still young when they came to Zhen Guogong's mansion. He and Sheng Li were not born to the same mother. He had no impression of the person Sheng Hao talked about, let alone his sister Keep it a secret for so long.
When Sheng Li heard these words, her heart suddenly felt sour, and tears almost fell from her eyes. She pointed at Sheng Hao, trying to restrain her emotions, and finally managed to speak.
Sheng Li resentfully said: "You are a bitch, you old bastard! When you were a guest in Jiangbei, my father warmly entertained you, but you saw my mother's beautiful appearance, and you tricked her into having an affair with you with sweet words. I was born again. This matter is my life, and I won’t say anything.”
The father and mother here naturally refer to her own parents. The secret was revealed by her, and the people around were stunned. Sheng Li turned his head and said to them: "Later, there was news from the capital that it was from the Zhen Guogong's mansion. The little son died at birth, and the princess was overwhelmed with grief. The Duke of Zhen intended to adopt a child among his relatives to comfort her. At that time, the family had an accident and his father passed away. The nanny discussed taking her brother to the capital to seek refuge... "
Sheng Ji let out an "ah", suddenly remembered something, and said, "I was supposed to come here alone, but your mother hanged herself suddenly on the third day, so the two of us were sent to Kyoto together!"
Sheng Li sneered twice: "It's such a coincidence that he hanged himself? Sheng Hao never mentioned his love affair in the past, and he never looked at my daughter more. When he heard that he had the opportunity to enter the Zhen Guogong's mansion, he stayed overnight. Send someone over and strangle my mother to death!"
Sheng Yang angrily said to Sheng Hao: "Are you still human?!"
Sheng Li held back his tears at the beginning, but when he heard the words that the elder sister said to him, he couldn't hold back all of a sudden, wiped away his tears, and said: "I didn't know anything before, when I was young, I only felt that two My uncle and my father were at odds, and people in the family didn't like him, but every time he saw me alone, he would talk to me very kindly. Later, when I was 16 years old, he, he suddenly told me that I was the His biological daughter even took out the token from his mother back then..."
Sheng Ji murmured: "That's why you always feel uneasy in your heart, making friends widely, afraid of being rejected by your parents..."
Sheng Li said: "I understand that the relationship between him and my father is not good. When I first found out, I was really flustered, but I didn't find it difficult to accept it, because since I was a child, he has really taken good care of me. It won’t harm me. As a result, shortly after he revealed his identity, he changed and often used it as a threat to ask me to help him with affairs... If I refused, he said that he would tell my father my real identity, so that the whole family hate me..."
"The more I realized how despicable he was, the more I felt that I couldn't let you guys know about it. Later, I found out that my mother was actually killed by him, just for me to come to Zhen Guogong's mansion!"
Sheng Li smiled sadly: "I wish I was the biological daughter of my parents like my eldest sister. If not, I would be like my third brother. But my father is him. I think about it every day and every night. I killed him to avenge my mother, but I dare not ask you to help me, so I can only make friends with outsiders... I am really, really..."
Lu Mo said: "Lier, stop talking, come here."
When Sheng Li was talking, she kept trying to make herself look calm and calm like Bai Yiling, but she found that she couldn't do it, so she deliberately raised her airs, which made her look pitiful and ridiculous.
Until the only remaining persistence failed in Lu Mo's words, Sheng Li shrank his head subconsciously, as if he was afraid of being beaten, stood there and hesitated for a while, lowered his head and dawdled to Lu Mo's side.
She moved her lips, wanting to call "Mother", but she was afraid that Lu Mo would not want her, so she didn't make a sound.
Lu Mo said: "You told Liu Bo about Sheng Kai and Jia Xiangbing, do you want to cause trouble for them?"
Lu Mo nodded, and said "yes" in a low voice, her shoulders trembled a little, and she didn't dare to look into Lu Mo's eyes: "I wanted to take revenge on them, I was already dizzy at that time... I, I didn't want to let Mr. Liu die……"
Tears flowed down her face, and the accumulated guilt and fear of these days erupted together. She could hardly speak, and could only cry and repeat "I'm sorry" repeatedly.
A trace of unbearableness flashed across Sheng Duo's face, and he wanted to persuade him, but he couldn't say anything, so he let out a long sigh.
Lu Mo pressed Sheng Li's shoulders and watched her daughter's tears streaming down her face seriously. When Sheng Li was almost crying and sobbing, she raised her hand.
Sheng Li subconsciously closed his eyes, and moved his body back slightly, only to be hugged by his mother.
She was a little silly, timidly leaning on Lu Mo's arms, not daring to put all her strength on it, and unwilling to leave this embrace.
Lu Mo wiped her tears and said, "Whose children don't make mistakes? How can there be parents who don't want their own children because they made mistakes? No matter whose family you are, bring me here and eat my family's food for so many years , It’s not easy for anyone to ask for it! Your father and I have been thinking about your brother all these years, and neglected other children. It’s our fault. Now let’s take care of things together!”
When she said these words, Sheng Li was crying so hard that he couldn't even breathe. He slipped and knelt down in front of Lu Mo, and said repeatedly: "Thank you mother! Thank you mother!"
Lu Mo sighed and said, "Stupid child, but you have done a lot of things wrong, and you have to bear the responsibility, do you know? You are not guilty in law, but you can't justify it in logic. When things here are over, you are not allowed to run around outside. Let’s copy scriptures for a year or so in the Buddhist hall.”
Sheng Li wiped his tears while sobbing: "Yes, my daughter must honestly copy the scriptures and repent... I won't do it again..."
She reluctantly said this, and couldn't help throwing herself into Lu Mo's arms, laying her head on her knees and crying loudly: "Mother! My daughter is wrong...you are my real mother!"
Lu Mo turned her head slightly, and couldn't help but wipe the corners of her eyes.
The scene in front of him was unexpected by Sheng Hao.He never imagined that Sheng Li had such a big handle in his hands, that he had the guts to remind Bai Yiling, and that after Lu Mo and others knew about this, they didn't have the idea of abandoning her.
He doesn't know how much the emperor knows, but so many people have been involved in the matter, and the grievances that have been closed by the Sheng family have completely escalated. No matter who is backing him, it is impossible to suppress it, unless Sheng Mian Willing to open the door.
When the mother and daughter were crying in each other's arms, Sheng Hao kept looking at Sheng Mian, clenching his teeth, thinking in his heart whether to plead with this always gentle and soft-hearted brother.
plead.He has been competing with Sheng Mian for most of his life, trying to prove that a concubine may not be as good as a concubine, and achieved the position of governor with his own efforts.In this way, all the hard work and maintenance before are meaningless.
But if he doesn't intercede, even if he can save his life this time, he will be exiled. It is estimated that he will not survive half a year at his age.
He is still thinking about it here, but others will not give Sheng Hao time to think too much. Sheng Duo already hated this uncle who harmed his younger siblings. Your Majesty said that we should investigate this matter within three days, and now that Sheng Hao's crimes have been proven, let your son send him to the Ministry of Punishment to interrogate his confession."
Sheng Mian looked at Sheng Hao with a complicated expression.
He values love and righteousness, Sheng Hao is still his brother no matter what, although they are more wary of each other and hate each other, they spent time together when they were young and vigorous. When he was just born, he was still under the direction of his mother. Huhu's little hand is held in the palm of the hand... How many fragmentary memories always come out inadvertently, and finally they are trampled by time beyond recognition.
He said slowly: "Okay, you can escort him out."
Sheng Hao was startled. Seeing Sheng Duo raised his hand, several guards rushed up to take him away. He finally felt nervous, stepped back immediately, and said without thinking, "I'm not going!" I'm not going! Brother, I was wrong, please forgive me!"
Sheng Duo said: "Second Uncle said this, don't you think it's a bit late?"
Sheng Hao ignored him, rushed to Sheng Mian and knelt down, Sheng Mian hid, and he begged hoarsely: "Please let me go, this is just a matter of your words! I am not without success Well, didn’t I already know I was wrong? I will never do right with you again! If this is brought to the Ministry of Criminal Justice...if, if it is brought to the Ministry of Criminal Justice..."
There was a look of panic in his eyes, how could he have thought that things would come to this point at first, the only thing he knows now is that all his vitality is in the hands of Sheng Mian, so he can't care about anything else, desperately want Impress him: "I am your brother!"
Sheng Mian's face was calm, and his hands were clenched in his sleeves. He whispered: "Yes, you are my younger brother, but Ling'er is also your nephew. He has suffered so much since he was a child, and finally he can go home. You how come……"
He sighed, and said slowly: "How can you bear to treat him like that? Sheng Hao, do you still have the heart?"
Sheng Hao almost collapsed on the ground, looked up at Sheng Mian in a daze, as if he couldn't believe that this good-tempered brother was really so cruel.Sheng Mian bent down, pulled the hem of his robe out of his hand, waved his hand and stopped looking at him: "Take it off."
Sheng Hao hissed: "I won't go, I won't go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice! You all go away, don't drag me!"
Sheng Duo said: "Quickly shut up and pull it out, don't let him shout here!"
So, all Sheng Hao had left was whining, which soon disappeared.
Sheng Yang quietly walked to Sheng Mian's side, hugged his arm, shook it coquettishly, and said, "Father?"
Sheng Mian came back to his senses, smiled gently at his daughter, and said, "Father is fine, we can enter the palace tomorrow morning."
Coupled with Sheng Hao's confession, the whole matter soon came to light. According to the previous decision, the emperor married Sang Hongrui to Lu Qi as his concubine.As for Gao Guilie, he was temporarily detained. Because of his special status, he was handed over to the Ninth Prince Pei Wang to take care of him, and he would deal with it after Sheng Mian and Lu Yu sent back news from Hehe.
After this series of processing was over, the emperor looked at Bai Yiling again, feeling a little sorry for this nephew.
Although Bai Yiling is young, he has outstanding ability to handle affairs. The most important thing is to know how to advance and retreat, and to speak and act properly.Later, because he had a good relationship with Lu Yu and was the most beloved child of his righteous sister, the emperor also had a good impression of him.
Thinking of his first fiancée becoming a murderer, and later hearing that Sang Hong's family intended to marry Bai Yiling, it turned out to be a scandal. Bai has such a face, and it can be said that the marriage is full of disasters .
The emperor expressed his kindness, thinking that he had suffered a loss in this matter after all, and wanted to make up for Bai Yiling.
Thinking of this, he looked at Bai Yiling with a smile, and said, "Bai Aiqing is twenty too?"
A trace of uneasiness flashed across Lu Yu's heart, Bai Yiling bowed and said, "Yes, I just performed the coronation ceremony not long ago."
The emperor said: "Well, you can marry a wife after being crowned. With your ability, you must have a good marriage to be worthy..."
Lu Yu frowned, raised his head and quickly glanced at Bai Yiling who was standing diagonally across from him, just in time to see him looking at him with a little uneasiness, their eyes met, and they both realized that something was wrong.
The emperor unexpectedly had a whim, and without even saying hello in advance, he was about to get married!
Lu Yu couldn't help feeling sorry for him, he was afraid that such a thing would happen, he had greeted the emperor in advance, explaining that he had a sweetheart and would not let him intervene, but he never expected that something went wrong on Bai Yiling's side.
The emperor said: "There is only one princess under my knees, and her appearance and character are not bad..."
When he said this, he saw Bai Yiling and Lu Yu stepping forward at the same time, which made him pause slightly for what he was about to say.Lu Yu glanced at Bai Yiling, quickly walked up to the emperor, knelt down, and hurriedly said, "Father, my son has something to say!"
Bai Yiling said: "Your Majesty, I..."
Lu Yu didn't even look at him, and he suppressed him with his own voice: "I told my father last time that I already have a sweetheart, please don't marry me. The emperor told me that the person I like is Bai Yiling."
While talking, he turned his head to look at Bai Yiling, and said, "I've never told you about this matter, and I don't know what your intentions are. I originally wanted to develop slowly. But now...the matter is urgent, so I can only be abrupt. Please... Lord Bai forgive me!"
Seeing Bai Yiling stand up, Lu Yu was afraid that he would offend the emperor by refusing the marriage and cause criticism from others, so he rushed to say these words, and what he said was like a cannonball.
After he finished speaking, the people around him, including Bai Yiling, were all dumbfounded.
The emperor was stunned for a moment, looked at Lu Yu, then looked at Bai Yiling along the way, finally came back to his senses, suddenly flew into a rage, slapped the dragon case hard, and cursed: "You are talking nonsense! Duke Huai, you Do you even know what you're talking about?!"
Lu Yu was calm and fearless: "I know that. Once when I was injured, I was rescued by Commander Bai and returned to the mansion to recuperate. He took care of me in every possible way. At that time, I believed that he was the love of my life. I have no choice but to agree As a man, Lord Bai doesn't care about me, so I have never dared to express my feelings, and he doesn't know about it. But if the emperor proposes marriage for him now, I will not be reconciled!"
The expressions of the people around were horrified—I have seen straightforward people, but I have never seen such straightforward ones, they are so frank and bold.
In normal times, he wasn't originally a restless character, but when facing Sheng Mian, he wanted to win and see the opponent lose his composure too much, so he could hardly hide his complacency.
Bai Yiling laughed loudly and said, "Oh, there was a mosquito with a cheap mouth last night, and I was bitten. I'm bothering you to notice it. It's really a tricky thing, and it looks like a mouse. If you don't believe me, you can ask My father and several elder brothers, anyway, face saints are all together, no one says the same."
Sheng Duo couldn't bear it any longer, and immediately answered Bai Yiling's words, and said quietly: "So that Second Uncle knows that last night, the illustrious prince Gao Guilie attempted to rape the daughter of King Youzhou, Sang Hongrui, and Injured her, when the King of Linzhang rushed to save her, he encountered the King of Ying patrolling the city, and the whole incident was broken on the spot. We were all at home, and my younger brother was with His Highness Huai Wang all the time. For some reason, I heard about Gao Guilie The person I made an appointment with was originally my younger brother, so I waited to enter the palace overnight, and didn't return to the mansion until the end of the day. Did Second Uncle understand?"
"You, you guys, how could..." Sheng Hao's forehead was dripping with sweat, and he finally started to feel flustered.
"It's time for us to ask you."
Sheng Mian finally spoke, his expression was not as gentle as usual, his brows were deeply furrowed, and anyone could feel the gloom and anger coming from him.As the younger brother who has lived under the same roof with Sheng Mian for more than ten years, Sheng Hao can naturally feel the difference in his emotions.
Sheng Mian said: "Gao Guilie has already said that it was you who just gave him the idea to ask Ling'er out, and it was you who sent someone to imitate His Highness Huai's handwriting. Why did you go to this extent? "
A chilling light burst out from his eyes, Sheng Hao couldn't help taking a step back under such staring eyes, and said loudly: "I don't! What does it have to do with me, it's absolutely nonsense!"
Sheng Mian's eyes sharpened sharply, and he pulled Sheng Hao in front of him, pinched his neck directly, and repeated sharply: "I'm asking why you did this!"
The sudden suffocation made Sheng Hao grab his hand and struggle desperately, Sheng Mian had already thrown him to the ground.
He said coldly: "In the past, I didn't care about you. I didn't feel guilty because I thought my mother killed your mother, but it was meaningless. But you became more and more rampant every day. We also have the blood of the Sheng family on our bodies. I treat you as my younger brother, but you don't cherish the relationship between us, so there is nothing to say."
Sheng Hao fell to the ground and looked up at him, his chest heaved and his expression changed several times. The habit of maintaining his self-esteem in front of Sheng Mian for many years still prevented him from denying it, so he turned to Bai Yiling and asked, "Why didn't you come to the appointment?"
Bai Yiling smiled and didn't answer the question, but at this moment a voice came: "Because of me."
Sheng Hao's body froze, and he turned his head slowly, only to see Sheng Li, who had been silent all this time, stood up from the table, tidied his cuffs slowly, raised his eyes and looked around at the other people who were watching him, and repeated: " The note you sent was originally thrown away by me."
The rest of the people had heard about this before the banquet, but there was not enough time to ask her why, but Sheng Hao was stunned and stared at Sheng Li for a long time before standing up: "You...you overheard me. Talked?"
Sheng Li said: "Oh, if you want to blame, you can only blame yourself for not guarding against me."
Sheng Hao rushed to his forehead and cursed: "Unworthy girl!"
Sheng Li was silent, Sheng Ji was shocked when he heard these three words, and suddenly said: "What did you say? Who is the unworthy girl?"
If Sheng Mian, a father, said this word, it would be the same. No matter what Sheng Li did, it would never be Sheng Hao's turn to scold him!
A terrible conjecture welled up in his mind.
Sheng Hao sneered and said: "Everyone's waist is stiff, so no one will have a hard time today. I tell you clearly, this girl is my daughter, and now it's good to help her father deal with outsiders! What a follower!" She's a slut like a mother, she eats the inside out and the outside grows to the bone."
Sheng Ji was at a loss. He and Sheng Li were still young when they came to Zhen Guogong's mansion. He and Sheng Li were not born to the same mother. He had no impression of the person Sheng Hao talked about, let alone his sister Keep it a secret for so long.
When Sheng Li heard these words, her heart suddenly felt sour, and tears almost fell from her eyes. She pointed at Sheng Hao, trying to restrain her emotions, and finally managed to speak.
Sheng Li resentfully said: "You are a bitch, you old bastard! When you were a guest in Jiangbei, my father warmly entertained you, but you saw my mother's beautiful appearance, and you tricked her into having an affair with you with sweet words. I was born again. This matter is my life, and I won’t say anything.”
The father and mother here naturally refer to her own parents. The secret was revealed by her, and the people around were stunned. Sheng Li turned his head and said to them: "Later, there was news from the capital that it was from the Zhen Guogong's mansion. The little son died at birth, and the princess was overwhelmed with grief. The Duke of Zhen intended to adopt a child among his relatives to comfort her. At that time, the family had an accident and his father passed away. The nanny discussed taking her brother to the capital to seek refuge... "
Sheng Ji let out an "ah", suddenly remembered something, and said, "I was supposed to come here alone, but your mother hanged herself suddenly on the third day, so the two of us were sent to Kyoto together!"
Sheng Li sneered twice: "It's such a coincidence that he hanged himself? Sheng Hao never mentioned his love affair in the past, and he never looked at my daughter more. When he heard that he had the opportunity to enter the Zhen Guogong's mansion, he stayed overnight. Send someone over and strangle my mother to death!"
Sheng Yang angrily said to Sheng Hao: "Are you still human?!"
Sheng Li held back his tears at the beginning, but when he heard the words that the elder sister said to him, he couldn't hold back all of a sudden, wiped away his tears, and said: "I didn't know anything before, when I was young, I only felt that two My uncle and my father were at odds, and people in the family didn't like him, but every time he saw me alone, he would talk to me very kindly.

Sheng Ji murmured: "That's why you always feel uneasy in your heart, making friends widely, afraid of being rejected by your parents..."
Sheng Li said: "I understand that the relationship between him and my father is not good.

"The more I realized how despicable he was, the more I felt that I couldn't let you guys know about it. Later, I found out that my mother was actually killed by him, just for me to come to Zhen Guogong's mansion!"
Sheng Li smiled sadly: "I wish I was the biological daughter of my parents like my eldest sister. If not, I would be like my third brother. But my father is him. I think about it every day and every night. I killed him to avenge my mother, but I dare not ask you to help me, so I can only make friends with outsiders... I am really, really..."
Lu Mo said: "Lier, stop talking, come here."
When Sheng Li was talking, she kept trying to make herself look calm and calm like Bai Yiling, but she found that she couldn't do it, so she deliberately raised her airs, which made her look pitiful and ridiculous.
Until the only remaining persistence failed in Lu Mo's words, Sheng Li shrank his head subconsciously, as if he was afraid of being beaten, stood there and hesitated for a while, lowered his head and dawdled to Lu Mo's side.
She moved her lips, wanting to call "Mother", but she was afraid that Lu Mo would not want her, so she didn't make a sound.
Lu Mo said: "You told Liu Bo about Sheng Kai and Jia Xiangbing, do you want to cause trouble for them?"
Lu Mo nodded, and said "yes" in a low voice, her shoulders trembled a little, and she didn't dare to look into Lu Mo's eyes: "I wanted to take revenge on them, I was already dizzy at that time... I, I didn't want to let Mr. Liu die……"
Tears flowed down her face, and the accumulated guilt and fear of these days erupted together. She could hardly speak, and could only cry and repeat "I'm sorry" repeatedly.
A trace of unbearableness flashed across Sheng Duo's face, and he wanted to persuade him, but he couldn't say anything, so he let out a long sigh.
Lu Mo pressed Sheng Li's shoulders and watched her daughter's tears streaming down her face seriously. When Sheng Li was almost crying and sobbing, she raised her hand.
Sheng Li subconsciously closed his eyes, and moved his body back slightly, only to be hugged by his mother.
She was a little silly, timidly leaning on Lu Mo's arms, not daring to put all her strength on it, and unwilling to leave this embrace.
Lu Mo wiped her tears and said, "Whose children don't make mistakes? How can there be parents who don't want their own children because they made mistakes? No matter whose family you are, bring me here and eat my family's food for so many years , It’s not easy for anyone to ask for it! Your father and I have been thinking about your brother all these years, and neglected other children. It’s our fault. Now let’s take care of things together!”
When she said these words, Sheng Li was crying so hard that he couldn't even breathe. He slipped and knelt down in front of Lu Mo, and said repeatedly: "Thank you mother! Thank you mother!"
Lu Mo sighed and said, "Stupid child, but you have done a lot of things wrong, and you have to bear the responsibility, do you know? You are not guilty in law, but you can't justify it in logic. When things here are over, you are not allowed to run around outside. Let’s copy scriptures for a year or so in the Buddhist hall.”
Sheng Li wiped his tears while sobbing: "Yes, my daughter must honestly copy the scriptures and repent... I won't do it again..."
She reluctantly said this, and couldn't help throwing herself into Lu Mo's arms, laying her head on her knees and crying loudly: "Mother! My daughter is wrong...you are my real mother!"
Lu Mo turned her head slightly, and couldn't help but wipe the corners of her eyes.
The scene in front of him was unexpected by Sheng Hao.He never imagined that Sheng Li had such a big handle in his hands, that he had the guts to remind Bai Yiling, and that after Lu Mo and others knew about this, they didn't have the idea of abandoning her.
He doesn't know how much the emperor knows, but so many people have been involved in the matter, and the grievances that have been closed by the Sheng family have completely escalated. No matter who is backing him, it is impossible to suppress it, unless Sheng Mian Willing to open the door.
When the mother and daughter were crying in each other's arms, Sheng Hao kept looking at Sheng Mian, clenching his teeth, thinking in his heart whether to plead with this always gentle and soft-hearted brother.
plead.He has been competing with Sheng Mian for most of his life, trying to prove that a concubine may not be as good as a concubine, and achieved the position of governor with his own efforts.In this way, all the hard work and maintenance before are meaningless.
But if he doesn't intercede, even if he can save his life this time, he will be exiled. It is estimated that he will not survive half a year at his age.
He is still thinking about it here, but others will not give Sheng Hao time to think too much. Sheng Duo already hated this uncle who harmed his younger siblings. Your Majesty said that we should investigate this matter within three days, and now that Sheng Hao's crimes have been proven, let your son send him to the Ministry of Punishment to interrogate his confession."
Sheng Mian looked at Sheng Hao with a complicated expression.
He values love and righteousness, Sheng Hao is still his brother no matter what, although they are more wary of each other and hate each other, they spent time together when they were young and vigorous. When he was just born, he was still under the direction of his mother. Huhu's little hand is held in the palm of the hand... How many fragmentary memories always come out inadvertently, and finally they are trampled by time beyond recognition.
He said slowly: "Okay, you can escort him out."
Sheng Hao was startled. Seeing Sheng Duo raised his hand, several guards rushed up to take him away. He finally felt nervous, stepped back immediately, and said without thinking, "I'm not going!" I'm not going! Brother, I was wrong, please forgive me!"
Sheng Duo said: "Second Uncle said this, don't you think it's a bit late?"
Sheng Hao ignored him, rushed to Sheng Mian and knelt down, Sheng Mian hid, and he begged hoarsely: "Please let me go, this is just a matter of your words! I am not without success Well, didn’t I already know I was wrong? I will never do right with you again! If this is brought to the Ministry of Criminal Justice...if, if it is brought to the Ministry of Criminal Justice..."
There was a look of panic in his eyes, how could he have thought that things would come to this point at first, the only thing he knows now is that all his vitality is in the hands of Sheng Mian, so he can't care about anything else, desperately want Impress him: "I am your brother!"
Sheng Mian's face was calm, and his hands were clenched in his sleeves. He whispered: "Yes, you are my younger brother, but Ling'er is also your nephew. He has suffered so much since he was a child, and finally he can go home. You how come……"
He sighed, and said slowly: "How can you bear to treat him like that? Sheng Hao, do you still have the heart?"
Sheng Hao almost collapsed on the ground, looked up at Sheng Mian in a daze, as if he couldn't believe that this good-tempered brother was really so cruel.Sheng Mian bent down, pulled the hem of his robe out of his hand, waved his hand and stopped looking at him: "Take it off."
Sheng Hao hissed: "I won't go, I won't go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice! You all go away, don't drag me!"
Sheng Duo said: "Quickly shut up and pull it out, don't let him shout here!"
So, all Sheng Hao had left was whining, which soon disappeared.
Sheng Yang quietly walked to Sheng Mian's side, hugged his arm, shook it coquettishly, and said, "Father?"
Sheng Mian came back to his senses, smiled gently at his daughter, and said, "Father is fine, we can enter the palace tomorrow morning."
Coupled with Sheng Hao's confession, the whole matter soon came to light. According to the previous decision, the emperor married Sang Hongrui to Lu Qi as his concubine.As for Gao Guilie, he was temporarily detained. Because of his special status, he was handed over to the Ninth Prince Pei Wang to take care of him, and he would deal with it after Sheng Mian and Lu Yu sent back news from Hehe.
After this series of processing was over, the emperor looked at Bai Yiling again, feeling a little sorry for this nephew.
Although Bai Yiling is young, he has outstanding ability to handle affairs. The most important thing is to know how to advance and retreat, and to speak and act properly.Later, because he had a good relationship with Lu Yu and was the most beloved child of his righteous sister, the emperor also had a good impression of him.
Thinking of his first fiancée becoming a murderer, and later hearing that Sang Hong's family intended to marry Bai Yiling, it turned out to be a scandal. Bai has such a face, and it can be said that the marriage is full of disasters .
The emperor expressed his kindness, thinking that he had suffered a loss in this matter after all, and wanted to make up for Bai Yiling.
Thinking of this, he looked at Bai Yiling with a smile, and said, "Bai Aiqing is twenty too?"
A trace of uneasiness flashed across Lu Yu's heart, Bai Yiling bowed and said, "Yes, I just performed the coronation ceremony not long ago."
The emperor said: "Well, you can marry a wife after being crowned. With your ability, you must have a good marriage to be worthy..."
Lu Yu frowned, raised his head and quickly glanced at Bai Yiling who was standing diagonally across from him, just in time to see him looking at him with a little uneasiness, their eyes met, and they both realized that something was wrong.
The emperor unexpectedly had a whim, and without even saying hello in advance, he was about to get married!
Lu Yu couldn't help feeling sorry for him, he was afraid that such a thing would happen, he had greeted the emperor in advance, explaining that he had a sweetheart and would not let him intervene, but he never expected that something went wrong on Bai Yiling's side.
The emperor said: "There is only one princess under my knees, and her appearance and character are not bad..."
When he said this, he saw Bai Yiling and Lu Yu stepping forward at the same time, which made him pause slightly for what he was about to say.Lu Yu glanced at Bai Yiling, quickly walked up to the emperor, knelt down, and hurriedly said, "Father, my son has something to say!"
Bai Yiling said: "Your Majesty, I..."
Lu Yu didn't even look at him, and he suppressed him with his own voice: "I told my father last time that I already have a sweetheart, please don't marry me. The emperor told me that the person I like is Bai Yiling."
While talking, he turned his head to look at Bai Yiling, and said, "I've never told you about this matter, and I don't know what your intentions are. I originally wanted to develop slowly. But now...the matter is urgent, so I can only be abrupt. Please... Lord Bai forgive me!"
Seeing Bai Yiling stand up, Lu Yu was afraid that he would offend the emperor by refusing the marriage and cause criticism from others, so he rushed to say these words, and what he said was like a cannonball.
After he finished speaking, the people around him, including Bai Yiling, were all dumbfounded.
The emperor was stunned for a moment, looked at Lu Yu, then looked at Bai Yiling along the way, finally came back to his senses, suddenly flew into a rage, slapped the dragon case hard, and cursed: "You are talking nonsense! Duke Huai, you Do you even know what you're talking about?!"
Lu Yu was calm and fearless: "I know that. Once when I was injured, I was rescued by Commander Bai and returned to the mansion to recuperate. He took care of me in every possible way. At that time, I believed that he was the love of my life. I have no choice but to agree As a man, Lord Bai doesn't care about me, so I have never dared to express my feelings, and he doesn't know about it. But if the emperor proposes marriage for him now, I will not be reconciled!"
The expressions of the people around were horrified—I have seen straightforward people, but I have never seen such straightforward ones, they are so frank and bold.
