《The Story of Ming Lan》E70
Episode 70
After kowtowing to Sheng Minglan, Danju married out of the prince's mansion, which was considered a good thing.Sheng Minglan wiped her tears from behind. Dan Jue, like Xiao Tao, had been with her since childhood. As long as Dan Jue married well, she would feel at ease.A few days later, Sheng Molan heard about this incident and was inevitably sarcastic. She was also dissatisfied that the Sheng family had kept Mrs. Sheng's affairs from her.Since Sheng Molan had no heirs, she begged Hai Chaoyun to ask Mrs. Sheng to help her connect the dots and ask Mrs. He to help her take care of herself.Hai Chaoyun said that Mrs. Sheng was ill, so why not ask Liang Han to post a message to ask the imperial doctor for diagnosis and treatment.Sheng Molan pretended to be surprised. Grandma is sick?Hai Chaoyun didn't let her visit and left alone.
Sheng Molan then went to see Sheng Changfeng. Sheng Changfeng already had a daughter and was very happy.Sheng Molan asked about the cause of Mrs. Sheng's illness. She didn't believe the official statement. Otherwise, why would Wang Ruofu return to Youyang?Sheng Changfeng said nothing, and Sheng Molan continued to play the emotional card, but Sheng Changfeng still didn't tell her.Sheng Molan was so angry that she scolded Sheng Changfeng for being useless, saying that he had an ugly wife in the house, and she only got a move after staying at home all day.The girl who delivered food to Aunt Kang was none other than Xue Niang, who was beside Lin Sushuang back then. After the two of them exchanged a few words, Aunt Kang got angry again. She refused to go to the inner prison, and even mocked Sheng Molan for only caring about her own popularity.Drink spicy food regardless of the old master-servant relationship.Sheng Molan then went to Sheng Hong to inquire about the cause of Mrs. Sheng's illness, and also said that Sheng Minglan was acting against the will and had ruined the reputation of the Sheng family.Sheng Hong was very dissatisfied, and Sheng Molan began to behave miserably again.Sheng Hong was a little soft-hearted, but remembering Sheng Changbai's words to him, he quickly said that there was no inside story, and in the blink of an eye he began to lecture Sheng Molan about the unrest in the family, disregarding the basics and ignoring the bottom line.Sheng Molan was very aggrieved, but she was kicked out by Sheng Hong.
Sheng Molan was very sad. As soon as she went out, she was pestered by Xue Niang, who begged her to take her to the Earl's Mansion.Sheng Molan disliked Xue Niang very much and refused to take her away, so Xue Niang begged her to give her some money.Sheng Molan still ignored her. Xue Niang followed Lin Sushuang and plundered a lot of money that day.Xue Niang also said that she was lame when she married Sheng Molan and all her money was scattered. If Sheng Molan refused, she would go out and gossip.Sheng Molan grabbed her collar and told her to go away, but Xue Niang used the matter of Mrs. Sheng as a bargaining chip, took Sheng Molan's hairpin, then changed her clothes and took her to see Aunt Kang.Seeing Aunt Kang's desolate look, Sheng Molan laughed so hard that Aunt Kang became so angry that she wished she could shout loudly to attract many people to see Sheng Molan's appearance.Sheng Molan asked Aunt Kang to tell her some inside stories, but Aunt Kang disliked her for being a concubine.Sheng Molan wasn't upset, she just said that they had a common enemy. Wouldn't they be just grasshoppers on a rope?Aunt Kang only said a little bit, but if she wanted to know more about the inside story, she had to ask Sheng Molan to help her out.
A few days later, Xue Niang secretly set a fire in the kitchen, and the Sheng Mansion was in chaos. Even the people who were looking after Aunt Kang went to put out the fire.Xue Niang took the opportunity to break the lock, changed Aunt Kang's female servant clothes and escaped.Aunt Kang took some money from Sheng Molan and told her the matter.Sheng Minglan concluded that Aunt Kang would not leave Beijing and asked people to keep an eye on the Wang family and Kang Jin.Aunt Kang being released was like a poisonous snake being released into the grass, it was too dangerous.Sheng Molan's envoy followed Aunt Kang and watched her go to Xiao Qin's place.Sheng Molan guessed the inside story. Although Aunt Kang insisted that Wang Ruofu framed her, she knew Wang Ruofu's temperament and would never have the courage to harm others.Sheng Molan just wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife and reap the benefits herself.
Sheng Hong looked at the burned kitchen and was very unhappy. When he heard that someone from the Wang family was coming, he told them to get out, but finally went out to meet them.Uncle Wang didn't know, but Sheng Hong believed that the Wang family set the fire and rescued Aunt Kang, and mocked them for acting.Xiao Qin received a letter saying that Gu Tingye was assassinated again in the south, and then asked Aunt Kang if she wanted to tell the Wang family.Aunt Kang only said that she could go back in glory after taking care of things here.At this time, news of the assassination of Zhao Ceying and his party also spread back to the capital.On the day Sheng Changbai returned, Sheng Hualan, Sheng Minglan and Hai Chaoyun came to the outskirts to greet him. Sheng Minglan had been restless and had nightmares recently, so she wanted to know when Gu Tingye would return.Sheng Changbai denied that Gu Tingye was injured, saying that it was just the salt work that was complicated and he did not come back with him. He said that Gu Tingye would be back in a few days.Sheng Minglan confirmed again and again, but her heart was still uncertain.
Sheng Minglan was sitting by the lake with a sad face. Two female envoys passed by and talked about rumors that Gu Tingye had blocked a knife for Zhao Ceying.Sheng Minglan ran over in panic, feeling anxious that she was about to give birth prematurely.Xiao Qin was very proud after learning that she had spread this rumor intentionally.Due to the abnormal position of the fetus, Sheng Minglan had to give birth while standing, but she still did not forget to ask Gu Tingye about it.From day to night, Xiao Qin told Aunt Kang about Sheng Minglan's birth through her mother's mouth, and said that she would put out a lantern to pray for blessings.Aunt Kang was very dissatisfied and scolded Xiao Qin for being soft-hearted, but Xiao Qin angered Aunt Kang implicitly and subtly.Little did they know, Xiao Qin was just waiting for Aunt Kang to stumble Sheng Minglan.Sheng Minglan had no strength. At this time, Chengyuan was on fire, and everyone was in chaos.Grandma Chang looked very anxious, but Sheng Minglan was still in labor and couldn't move.Just as Qi Heng and Shen were saying this, they saw a fire in the direction of Chengyuan from a distance. Qi Heng immediately asked people to bring fire-fighting equipment. He wanted to go over and have a look.Shen was naturally unwilling to let Qi Heng go, but she couldn't stop him.
