《The Story of Ming Lan》E66
Episode 66
The British Duke wanted to report to Zhao Zongquan, but now there was no turning back, so he said that Zhang would rather become a Taoist nun. The couple would go to the Shen family to appease them. They were still secular relatives, so Zhao Zongquan had nothing to say.But Mrs. Zhang didn't want to, she wanted to go out and conquer another world.A few days later, Mrs. Zhang's child was one month old, and many ministers and family members of the court had gone. Little Mrs. Zou struggled not to be taken away, and Mrs. Shen suddenly felt distressed. She rushed into the crowd and wanted to have a big quarrel with Mrs. Zhang.Xiao Zou was sent away, and after the crowd dispersed, Xiao Shen knelt down and begged Shen Congxing to go away, and even vented her anger on Sheng Minglan.Little Shen was still stubborn, so Sheng Minglan told them all their mistakes and advised Shen Congxing to cultivate his moral integrity at home.But the little Shen family was still worried about the little Zou family, so Sheng Minglan had to use the elder Zou family's children to persuade her.
Just as Sheng Minglan was about to leave, someone came from the Sheng Mansion to report that Mrs. Sheng was dying.Sheng Minglan was extremely flustered and hurriedly returned to Sheng Mansion.Old Mrs. Sheng's complexion was yellow and she was unconscious. Sheng Hong, Sheng Minglan and others were anxiously surrounding the imperial doctor.After checking the pulse, the imperial doctor only asked Sheng Hong to speak. Sheng Minglan and Wang Ruofu also followed.The imperial doctor seemed to be holding something back and didn't dare to say anything, so he just prescribed a prescription.Wang Ruofu breathed a sigh of relief, but Sheng Minglan asked about the cause of the disease. Mrs. Sheng had always been in good health, so how could she suddenly be like this?The imperial doctor said that the matter could not be explained clearly. Sheng Minglan wanted to ask more questions, but Wang Ruofu interrupted guiltily.Sheng Minglan asked the imperial doctor to stay one more night to reassure her. Wang Ruofu was not willing to do so, but Sheng Hong also meant the same, so she had nothing to say.Sheng Minglan refused to go back and drove Sheng Hong and Wang Ruofu back to the room to rest.Back at Mrs. Sheng's house, Sheng Minglan persuaded Hai Chaoyun to go back to her courtyard and asked Fang's mother to go out and guard the courtyard.
Then, Sheng Minglan asked Dr. Zhao about the real cause of Mrs. Sheng's illness. Dr. Zhao said that Mrs. Sheng was indeed ill, and her symptoms seemed to be poisoning.Sheng Minglan suddenly softened and almost cried. After sitting down for a while, Sheng Minglan asked Mrs. Sheng what she had eaten today.Old Mrs. Sheng has always been cautious, and everything she eats is cooked in the small kitchen. As she got older, she fell in love with pastries from outside.Mom seemed to have thought of something, and hesitated for a long time before saying that Wang Ruofu often sent people to buy snacks for Mrs. Sheng, but it had been a long time and it had never gone wrong!Mother brought Mrs. Sheng a few bites of pastry. Doctor Zhao was silent for a long time after testing the poison, and then continued to say "very powerful".There are inedible ginkgo buds in it. It doesn't sound like poison, so a silver needle can't detect it.Sheng Minglan was flustered again. Fortunately, Mrs. Sheng didn't eat too much, otherwise even the Great Luo Immortal wouldn't be able to save her.Sheng Minglan looked at Dr. Zhao, and when she learned that she was not completely sure of saving Mrs. Sheng, tears almost overflowed from her eyes.
Doctor Zhao went to check the food. Sheng Minglan asked Xiao Tao to hold the sign and asked the people left by Gu Tingye to block the Sheng Mansion and no one was allowed to let out.Sheng Minglan sat alone and cried, unable to help but curse.Looking at Old Mrs. Sheng, Sheng Minglan was very sad, but she still had to swallow her tears and choked back. Only she could seek justice for Old Mrs. Sheng.
At dawn the next day, Liu's mother came to Sheng Minglan's place to make trouble, saying that Sheng Hong was in a hurry to go to court.Sheng Minglan didn't say anything and went to Wang Ruofu's place.Wang Ruofu and Sheng Hong wanted to scold her when they saw her, but Sheng Minglan said that she had asked someone to take leave for Sheng Hong, saying that her mother was seriously ill and was staying at the house to take care of her. This would be of great benefit to Sheng Hong's reputation.Sheng Hong was happy. Although this was not bad, what was the point of asking people to surround the yard?Sheng Minglan explained the poisoning in detail, and then looked at Wang Ruofu, who was now extremely guilty.Sheng Hong understood immediately and questioned Wang Ruofu, but Wang Ruofu tried his best to evade. Sheng Hong was so angry that he could not speak.Sheng Minglan wanted to invite more imperial doctors to investigate carefully, but Sheng Hong felt that these were family scandals that should not be publicized and could not be discussed.Wang Ruofu still slapped her face and pretended to be fat. Sheng Minglan also said that she would go to Kaifeng Mansion to sue her. However, Sheng Hong still cared about the reputation of the Sheng family and insisted on closing the door and investigating slowly.Sheng Hong had talked about all the good and bad things, but Sheng Minglan decided to vindicate Mrs. Sheng.
Mrs. Sheng broke up with her family for the sake of Sheng Hong's future. Sheng Minglan said all these things, which just hit Sheng Hong's heart and actually hit her.Sheng Minglan was already heartbroken. Sheng Hong valued her face the most in her life, but she could never let Sheng Hong turn this matter into a trivial matter!Sheng Minglan doesn't want any official appointments, any glory and wealth, she only wants justice!Sheng Minglan almost dropped the table. Sheng Hong approached and wanted to hit her, but she still held back and looked at Wang Ruofu. If she didn't tell the truth, he would only have a divorce letter.
Wang Ruofu looked at Sheng Minglan again and said that she was disobedient to her elders.Seeing that Wang Ruofu still refused to plead guilty, Sheng Hong quickly sent someone to get pen and ink for him to write a letter of divorce.Wang Ruofu was crazy but couldn't say anything. Liu's mother hurriedly stepped forward and cried to persuade her. If Wang Ruofu didn't tell the truth, her three children would be hurt!Although Mother Liu came from the Wang family, she still felt that Aunt Kang was too outrageous, and even tried her best to persuade Wang Ruofu not to associate with Aunt Kang anymore.Wang Ruofu has always been a straight man and would not use such complicated methods to scheme against people. It was precisely because of doubts that Sheng Minglan forced Wang Ruofu to tell the truth.After Mrs. Liu's heart-breaking persuasion, Wang Ruofu said that Aunt Kang had tricked Wang Ruofu into poisoning, but Aunt Kang had lied to Wang Ruofu that the medicine was non-toxic.After hearing the truth, Sheng Minglan repeatedly said that Wang Ruofu was confused. Her grandson often went to play with Mrs. Sheng!If Mrs. Sheng is really dead, Aunt Kang will hold the evidence that Wang Ruofu killed her mother-in-law, and the entire Sheng family will be controlled by Aunt Kang.
Sheng Minglan's people caught a female envoy who was trying to climb out of a dog hole. Tu Erye used some tricks, and the female envoy told her that Aunt Kang bribed her to be an eyeliner.Sheng Hong never thought about what happened next, but Sheng Minglan had to think about it. She asked Mother Liu to look panicked and invite Aunt Kang, saying that Mrs. Sheng was dying.The great future of the Sheng family cannot be ruined in Aunt Kang's hands, only by holding her in her hands.Sheng Minglan said lightly that she would take Aunt Kang outside to kill her. Sheng Hong was immediately shocked. How could such a well-behaved child act like a yaksha today?Liu's mother came to report that Aunt Kang went to Wang Ruofu's house alone, and now someone has detained her. The strange thing is that Aunt Kang's close mother did not come.
