The empress of fast wear is married

Chapter 641 Qingqiu Fox (46)

Wei's mother covered her face, hot tears overflowed between her fingers, and sobbed, "Chengzhi, it's all my fault, it's all my fault for being infatuated..."

The servants in the room have already been dismissed, only the mother and the child are left, some are deeply hidden in her heart, every time she dreamed back in the middle of the night after being glamorous and beautiful, she would think of the words that made her conscience uneasy, and at this moment she became very indifferent unspeakable.

"Master Mei and Mrs. Mei are kind to our mother and son. They took us in as old friends after your father died, so that you can study and gain fame, and even betrothed their most precious jewel to you. He likes her and wants her to be his daughter-in-law,... how could mother harm her?"

Mother Wei's voice was whimpering, crying miserably, with an inexplicable sense of sadness.

When she talked about the past, Wei Zhang couldn't help sobbing in his throat, so painful that he couldn't make a sound.

Mother Wei took her hand away, her eyes, which were more than ten years old, filled with tears and vicissitudes, no longer the brilliance of a noble lady in the past, looked at her son, shed a line of regretful tears, and murmured: " But, it turns out that you have been admitted to the first prize!"

she says.

"You are the No. [-] Scholar of Jinke hand-picked today, and your future is boundless. Meiniang is just the daughter of a merchant, and it will only delay you."

she says.

"You are the favorite student of Chief Minister Wei Gelao. Miss Wei has a crush on you. Wei Gelao intends to let you be his son-in-law."

she says.

"One side is Mei Niang, and the other side is Miss Wei. I like Mei Niang, but people are biased. She is not my own daughter after all. How can a mother not consider her son?"

"Mei Niang's parents are both dead, so it won't be able to help you in your official career. Behind Miss Wei is the entire Wei Mansion. You have a marriage contract with Mei Niang. It is absolutely impossible to be that Chen Shimei."

"I've already let go of this idea. It's not bad for you to marry Mei Niang, but I didn't expect..."

"That night there was a big fire in the Mei Mansion."

Mother Wei's eyes were empty and distant, as if she was telling someone else's story, her tone was penetrating:

"...Mei Niang's door was locked by someone with an iron chain, and the windows were nailed with wooden boards. She was awake. She patted on the door and called for help... Fire, it's a big fire, That night, the entire Mei Mansion was filled with fire billowing with thick smoke."

"I was shocked when I heard Mei Niang calling for help. I originally planned to save her. After all, she is Chengzhi's childhood sweetheart. You told me to take good care of her before you went to Jinling. She is also my future daughter-in-law... "

"Daughter-in-law, it suddenly occurred to me that the old nanny sent by Mrs. Wei was talking, and then a ghost got caught up in her mind!"

Speaking of this, Wei's mother seemed to be crying and laughing, "I originally ordered people to draw water to put out the fire, but in the end, I just watched helplessly as Meiniang gradually... fell silent in the fire."

The veins on the back of Wei Zhang's hands popped out one by one, his teeth were clenched, his eye circles were red, and his otherwise handsome face looked slightly ferocious.

Listening to his mother's words, he seemed to be able to imagine that when his Mei Niang was dying, the doors and windows were locked, and there was nowhere to ask for help... Despair!
And his biological mother was the accomplice who killed her!
"Mother, you are confused!" In ancient times, filial piety was the first priority, and Wei Zhang spoke to Wei's mother in such a strong tone for the first time, "Official career, official career, if I knew it would kill Mei Niang, I would rather not get this honor !"
