"But I kindly tell you that my disciple doesn't like to use things that have been used by others. If you let her know that you gave Ranran this piece of jade before, I dare say she will throw it into the furnace for you right away. !”
Xuan Hui raised his eyes and glanced at Hua Niang and said, "As long as you don't talk too much, the little thing won't know."
Hua Niang bit her cheek.
"Don't blame me for not reminding you, dyeing is a taboo for her. Because of this, the disciple doesn't even call me master, but insists on calling me master. Listen, I will gain more points."
When Xuan Hui was interrupted by Hua Niang, he forgot what he was paying attention to just now and continued to ask questions. Now he just felt that Hua Niang's nagging was annoying.
"You go back to Qingluo Pavilion to sell goods. Make more money and prepare more elixirs for the little thing. If you still have nothing to do, study more teaching methods and don't let her learn too hard."
After listening to Xuan Hui's words, Hua Niang felt that her whole cheek was sore.
"You are too..."
Hua Niang has lived for hundreds of thousands of years, but she can't find a suitable word to describe Xuan Hui's behavior.
"It's a small thing at a mouth. You don't look good to others, but you secretly care about me behind your back. I'm so simple-minded that I wouldn't know that you are..."
"go out."
The non-host Xuan Hui said that he wanted to see off the guests.
"I do not go!"
Hua Niang persisted and found a mat to sit down on, "I won't leave!"
Do you like to walk or not?
It would be better not to leave!
In the study, Mei Tinghan and Li Sinian looked up at the Crazy King. The Crazy King seemed to be troubled by something and didn't really want to talk to them. He just said: "To make a long story short, I am very busy."
Mei Tinghan blocked Li Sinian with her arm, holding her head high as if she was going to die generously.
"I am the son of a guilty minister. My crime is unforgivable, and death is not a pity. I only ask the prince to let Li Sinian go. When he released Li Sinian privately, he was threatened by me and coerced by me..."
"If you pick up the key point, don't you just want me to forgive Li Sinian's sin?"
As for Mei Tinghan's little Jiujiu, the Mad King had already noticed it. He was thinking about his daughter and was so uneasy that he had no time to listen to Mei Tinghan's vain words.
"Mei Tinghan, if you want me to let Li Sinian go, you have to come up with something significant, right? What are you going to do in exchange for his life?"
Isn't this hint obvious enough? The Mad King means that if you want him to survive, you have to hand over the batch of disaster relief money that was embezzled by the Mei family.
"Brother Mei, there's no need for that. I'm not worth saving."
Li Sinian stood in front of Mei Tinghan, kowtowed to the Mad King and said, "Your Majesty, is it time for this torturing game of yours to end? If one of us must die, I am willing to bear everything."
"Can you afford it?" Mad King was waiting for Mei Tinghan's answer.
"Banqu, drag Li Sinian into the dungeon and keep him under strict supervision."
Ban Qu came in and wanted to take Li Sinian away, but the Mad King told him again, "Watch him and don't allow him to commit suicide!"
Li Sinian shuddered slightly. The Mad King didn't even give him this escape route.
"Si Nian, you must wait for me, I will rescue you!"
Li Sinian turned around and saw that Mei Tinghan was so steadfast in his words that he couldn't take a step out.
After saying goodbye today, he would never see Mei Tinghan again.
They finally cleared up the estrangement, but they never had the chance to talk to each other honestly.
"Mei Tinghan, I will only give you one hour."
The Mad King pointed to the stars outside the window and said, "Before dawn, if you can't find what I want, I will still kill Li Sinian."
The Mad King took a breath and said, "This time, I will kill for real!"
Mei Tinghan understood what the Mad King meant. Li Sinian was able to survive the execution and turn into Wan Yun's face before, all because of the Mad King's instruction.
But what is his purpose in doing this?
Just to tease him and play with Li Sinian?
Or is it just to take revenge on Li Sinian for saving him by substituting one thing for another?
Mei Tinghan couldn't figure it out, and she didn't have time to think about it. She only had one hour.
Mei Tinghan ran out of Prince Rui's Mansion, but the Mad King refused to even lend him a horse. He could only run on his own two legs. Mei Tinghan finally understood what it meant to be "tired of running for his life", even though he had already run His calves were sore, and there was a voice in his head that kept telling him that he was too tired and needed to rest, but he couldn't stop, otherwise Li Sinian would die.
He wanted to give Li Sinian the life he should have had, return everything to its place, and return it to the way it was before he returned to the capital.
There was only one chance to make up for his mistakes. If he couldn't seize it, he would not be able to feel at ease even if he died.
Fifteen years ago, he just gave a robe to a beggar on the roadside. He did not expect that the beggar would remember it for his whole life. In order to repay his kindness to his classmate for ten years, the little beggar was always the boy who stood in front of him to protect him. After becoming an official, he took the risk of being beheaded to get himself out of the prison and sent him out of the capital.
Such a person has been wrongly hated by himself for five years.
The scenery passed by uniformly. Mei Tinghan had never run such a long distance in his life. When he arrived at his destination, Mei Tinghan knelt on the ground and started retching. His heart and lungs seemed to explode.
The sky has turned slightly white, and there is no time to rest.
In front of Mei Tinghan's eyes was a large area of ruins after fire. Here, more than a month ago, was Wenyu Academy.
Concubine Sun told herself that this academy was actually an asset of the Mei family.
The disaster relief silver was secretly converted into stones during the process of being pulled out of the Ministry of Household Affairs and transported out of the capital. Most of the real silver was buried under Wenyu Academy.
In Wenyu Academy, Mei Tinghan checked back and forth, and unexpectedly returned to the starting point.
So when my father asked Wan Yun to study at Wenyu Academy, did he want him to take care of the money?
Now that Wanyun is dead and Prince Xuanping is also dead, there is no way to test his conjecture.
So where can a large amount of silver be buried?
Mei Tinghan couldn't care less, so he rushed directly to the ruins and dug up the bricks, rubble, and broken walls. Mei Tinghan clumsily picked up the hard bricks on the ground with the sharp stones he grabbed casually.
However, the area of Wenyu Academy is not something that Mei Tinghan can dig out casually. The sky is already turning red. Mei Tinghan's hands are dirty, and his fingers are dug into pieces. There are stains all over his hands. is blood.
Mei Tinghan has never looked forward to the sun rising later than he did today, and he hasn't found it yet.
"Damn it! Where did you put it?"
Mei Tinghan was almost exhausted, and her arms were so sore that she couldn't lift them up.
One hour was too short, and the Mad King didn't give himself a chance to let Li Sinian live.
In the Mei family, the Mad King never thought of letting go.
He is not a lunatic at all. He is even crazier than a lunatic. He is more ruthless and ruthless. He wants to pay back all the sins he suffered in Bei'an City to the people who framed him back then.
The Mad King has never been a tolerant person. From the beginning, he wanted revenge.
And his way of revenge is to torture these people's hearts. The so-called murder and heart-breaking is nothing more than that.
