Chapter 574 What Is the Twenty-Year Case
"Ma'am, you are not someone else, you are one of your own." Pang Yi said in a hurry.
Xiao An: "...how did I know you are a fool?"
"Ahem, then I'll cook the dumplings." Pang Yi coughed awkwardly, then hurriedly walked towards the kitchen with the tray in his hand.
...
Two large trays of dumplings were cooked in two pots, and they were not eaten in the dining room. The five of them ate around the stone table in the gazebo, chatting while eating, and drinking Gu Changlin's iced plum wine. It's sour, the alcohol content is not high, Mei Ya and Xiao An's can also drink a little.
"What the hell is this? Can this be eaten?" Gu Changlin looked at a suspected dumpling in the bowl, then suddenly frowned and looked at Pang Yi, "Hey, boy, can you stop wasting food in the future? You can't make dumplings. Just don't pack it!"
"If you're ugly, you'll be ugly. Don't you eat the same thing? Is it necessary to be so picky?" Pang Yi was not happy at the moment, and angrily snatched the four-faced image from Gu Changlin's bowl. Putting it in his own bowl, he ate it with gusto, "I just like ugly dumplings like this..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhong Mingwei put the four images in his own bowl into Pang Yi's bowl.
The corner of Pang Yi's mouth twitched: "..."
Xiao An also silently picked up the four images in her bowl.
Pang Yi: "..."
Although it is said that a good man does not fight with women, why does he want to beat his wife so much?
"Bang bang bang!"
When Pang Yi was looking at his bowl full of four images without love, he heard a knock on the door outside.
"I'm going to open the door," Pang Yi put down the bowl and chopsticks, wiped his mouth, and walked out of the gazebo. After a while, he saw Pang Yi leading a young man in. Pang Yi introduced to Zhong Mingwei, "Master, this is Mr. Fang's personal bodyguard named Song Duan."
The young man named Song Duan was so busy that he clasped his fists at Zhong Mingwei and said, "I'm next to Song Duan, I've seen you."
"Get up," Zhong Mingwei took the handkerchief from Meiya and wiped his mouth, while looking at Song Duan, "What's the matter?"
"Yes, I'm ordering you to hand over a letter to me." Song Duan said as he took out an envelope from his arms and handed it over with both hands.
Pang Yi took the envelope and handed it to Zhong Mingwei.
Zhong Mingwei looked at the letter and asked Song Duan, "Why didn't you see Guard Kong?"
Usually it was Kong Wenjie or Kong Wenmin who came to deliver the letter, but this time Fang Zuotang changed his face, Zhong Mingwei felt a little strange.
Song Duan said: "Master Qi, the guard Xiao Kong escorted the young lady into Changbai Mountain for hunting half a month ago, but the young lady was injured just after entering the mountain. My lord only received the news six days ago, so I hurriedly asked the guard Big Kong to pick the young lady back Ning Guta."
"Not seriously injured?" Meiya, who had been sitting quietly all this time, suddenly raised her head and asked, "And guard Xiao Kong, is he also injured?"
Meiya and Fang Chengyin have met each other several times, and they have a good impression of this unassuming young lady, and Kong Wenjie has even given her a lot of favors, so when she first heard the news, Meiya was naturally worried about the two of them.
"Madam Qi, the lady suffered a skin injury and it is not a serious problem, and Xiao Kong's guard is not injured." Song Duan glanced at Meiya, and then said respectfully.
"That's good." Meiya nodded, finally breathed a sigh of relief, "When they come back, I'll go over to visit them."
"Thank you, Ma'am," Song Duan said, bowing to leave, "This subordinate will leave."
...
"What did you write?" After Song Duan left, Zhong Mingwei opened the letter to read it. He didn't speak for a long time, and then put the letter back, but his face was a little heavy, and Meiya was inevitably a little worried.
"Prince Pingxi is going back to Beijing. Things are not peaceful here in Ninggu Pagoda. The magistrate just reminded us." Zhong Mingwei actually didn't want to talk about this with Meiya, but he was afraid that if he didn't talk about this girl, he would think wildly again. He said it lightly at the moment.
"Is it the prisoner who was sent to Ninggu Pagoda for the 20-year exile of the screwdriver, as well as the criminal minister?" Meiya didn't understand, but Xiao An understood.
"What is a 20-year case?" Meiya was at a loss.
Zhong Mingwei glanced at Xiao An, and then whispered to Meiya: "A case more than ten years ago was caused by King Pingxi, and some ministers involved in the case were dismissed and sent to Ninggu Pagoda. There are cases like this every year. It's nothing. Amazing."
