Chapter 222 Secret Affairs of the Mi Family
The memories of Mi Songbu and his concubine always contain fear and disgust for what happened during that period.
It was a very ordinary day. There were frightened screams from the house where the original owner lived, and the chaos attracted everyone in the Mi Mansion.
They saw that the original owner's house was shrouded in black fog, and something evil was visible to the naked eye.
Just standing outside the house with the wind blowing over me, I felt a bone-chilling chill. Even though it was a nice day, the steps, eaves and pillars were actually covered in frost.
The maid who ran out of the house collapsed on the ground. When asked what happened, she burst into tears and said: "Miss, miss's belly, belly..."
I couldn't get any more information out of this maid. , the black fog shrouding the house was suddenly dispersed by a white light.
Everyone outside was hesitant, but Mi Yixian first proposed to go in to see his sister.
Yunshi and him set off, and the others followed.
When I entered the house, I saw the original owner lying on the ground unconscious. What was shocking was that there was a baby in her arms.
The baby was covered in bruises and looked like he had died. However, in front of everyone, the baby suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes were gray and empty, so big that it was almost impossible to see the whites of the eyes.
The old lady of the Mi family was frightened and fainted on the spot.
After this incident, there was another turmoil. Mi Songbu and others took care of the old lady's body. A group of people escorted the old lady out to find a doctor, temporarily forgetting about the original owner and the weird baby. In the end, only Mi Yixian and her son were left present.
In fact, they were frightened by the baby and did not dare to stay in the original owner's house.
Because the matter was not handled in time, it didn’t take long for news of this matter to spread in the Mi Mansion, and some rumors spread outside.
By the time Mi Songbu discovered it and sealed it, it was already too late. Fortunately, the most widely circulated version was that the original owner gave birth to a child before they were married. From this, it was derived that the original owner was defiled outside, or by himself at home. He had a good reputation and did some shameful things, and some said it was a frame-up.
In any case, this is more acceptable to Mi Songbu than the messy version that his family was haunted by evil spirits.
To deal with such rumors, the Mi family dealt with them very quickly. Of course, they denied the authenticity of the matter on behalf of the original owner, and then arranged the marriage between the original owner and Sun Yingxian. But I don’t know how the original owner and Sun Yingxian got along. The two got along several times with the help of the two families. Each time the original owner came back, his mood became more and more unstable, and finally he locked himself in the house and refused the marriage.
In Mi Songbu's opinion, this means that this daughter is ungrateful. You know how much benefit he has paid for this marriage, how dare an evil creature say that he is unwilling?
When it comes to evil spirits, Mi Songbu thinks of another more evil thing, that is, the baby of unknown origin.
The Mi family, who had seen the way the child was born, naturally did not want to keep this thing in their family. They thought of killing the child directly or throwing her away. The strange result was that all the people sent to deal with the child died violently.
As a result, no one dared to face the child. Mi Songbu gave an order to lock the original owner and the baby in the house and not allow her to go out. She was only allowed to have food and drink brought inside the door every day.
Yunshi and Mi Yixian came to resist but were rejected by Mi Songbu.
After half a month like this, the old lady of the Mi family died of illness.
Almost everyone blamed the original owner and the baby, believing that the original owner and the baby were evil spirits. When attending the funeral of the old lady, they unanimously decided to send the original owner and the baby away.
Only Mi Yixian stood up to oppose this decision. He said that the baby could be sent away, but the original owner was also a victim of this incident and should not be treated like this.
But this opposition is still useless. Several main people in power in the Mi family have already made their decisions.
"If I could have sent the child away alone, I would have sent it away long ago. The only one who can get close to the child without dying is Mi August. Do you dare to say that Mi August is innocent?"
"For the sake of her For the sake of the children of the Mi family , It’s a mercy not to take her life, so just send her to her ancestral home.”
Mi Yixi’s eyes turned red, “The ancestral home was abandoned long ago in a border town, how can Xiaoyue survive in such a place. ”
"Then send two people to follow her and give her some more money every year."
In this way, the original owner was arranged on a carriage to Yongmengxiang in Beiyuan City, but the man and woman arranged by the Mi family for the original owner had long been taken away. concubine bribery , the two parties talked and decided to send the original owner to Yongmengxiang and then collect the money and leave. As for the so-called sending some money to the original owner every year, it was actually just to appease and coax Mi Yixian. Mi Songbu and the others had no intention of giving it to the original owner and their children. Way to survive.
But because of the child's evil ways, they didn't dare to take action nearby, so they thought that the sky was high and the emperor was far away, and they abandoned the people and turned them into abandoned ancestral homes, leaving them to fend for themselves.
After listening to the concubine’s words, the two of them no longer had any worries and agreed to the job.
In the next few years, Mi Yixian sent people to his ancestor's house many times to inquire about the original owner. He didn't know that the people he sent were bribed, and the information he got was fabricated by Mi Songbu's people.
Mi Yixian thought about going to see the original owner in person, but his broken body made it difficult for him to travel far, and the Yun family also stopped him from going.
Last year, Yun passed away. Before she died, she cried and said to Mi Songbu: "I have never asked you for anything in all these years. I know Xiaoyue must be gone. Now I am gone too, no. I'll get in your way again Eye, now I just ask you, for the sake of Xian'er suffering so much, let him live a good life."
Mi Songbu nodded and said nonchalantly: "As long as he doesn't go. Think of something he doesn't deserve "
Later, while Mi Songbu was leaving, the concubine secretly came in and said to the dying Yun: "My good sister, please remember to wait below. My sister knows that you are most afraid of loneliness. Yes, soon Send your son to accompany you so that you can be mother and son in the next life. Oh, by the way, maybe you can find your little daughter.” I will never die with my eyes in peace.
It's a pity that the concubine didn't have everything she wanted. Even if Yunshi died, she would not be lifted up immediately. The Mi family is a scholarly family that values face. Yun is the daughter of the mentor of the brothers in the Mi family, so she must keep her face. Even if Mi Songbu wanted to raise his concubine, his elder brother who was a bachelor would not agree.
After Yun's death, her elderly father vaguely felt something. He was too old and incapable, but he could write a letter and send it to his disciples, including that one The eldest brother of the Mi family who is a bachelor.
The eldest brother wrote a letter to Mi Songbu, warning him to take good care of Mi Yixian and not to let women fool him. And Mi Yixian finally had a few people assigned to protect him, and he himself lived in seclusion and survived in a low-key manner.
Until this time the royal team was coming to Beiyuan City and passing through Fengxia City, Mi Songbu got the news and joined them, bringing his favorite concubine and concubine. Before leaving, Mi Yixian Dragging the sick body followed closely.
After learning everything, Mi August erased their memories of Mi Feixue and went to Mi Yixian's residence.
Just in time, the concubine of the Mi family was outside the door, but was stopped by a guard guarding the outside and refused to let him in.
Mi Zhenbang shouted into the closed room with a half-smile, "Brother, look at you. They say you shouldn't run around if you are not in good health. You will be served delicious food and drinks along the way. No more food." Even after just one step in the carriage, I lost half my life. I feel really sad to see him.”
Mi August entered the door silently and heard a cough, looking at the brother of the original owner. .
Mi Yixian was obviously sick and frail, and his emaciated appearance reminded Mi August of Mi Feixue when he first met.
If Mi Feixue was like a little fire stick when we first met, then Mi Yixian was like a dead branch. He is clearly in the best years of his life, but his face is sickly, he is dressed more heavily than anyone else, and his lips are still blue from the cold.
As soon as Mi August pointed down, Mi Yixian lost consciousness.
She first fed Mi Yixian a Tianshou Pearl, and then took a magic weapon and integrated it into his body.
With this trick, the toxins remaining in his body will no longer harm his body, and the poison can be hidden in the body and released at any time.
For an ordinary person, this ability is enough for him to protect himself in the future.
Seeing Mi Yixian's complexion improving at a speed visible to the naked eye, and a thin layer of sweat breaking out on his forehead, Mi August left as quietly as when he came.
She does not intend to recognize the original owner's family, nor does she intend to have too much interaction with them.
But seeing as the relationship between the original owner and her mother and brother was good, and Mi Yixian sincerely cared about her sister, she didn't mind giving some help. It's a pity that Yun didn't hold on longer, otherwise he could have saved the other party's life.
Mi August returned to Siye Mansion and wrote a letter to be delivered to Yi Zhen.
After Yi Zhen got the letter, he immediately opened it and read it. There was only one name in it.
[Mi Yixian]
Yizhen’s eyes flashed.
Are you asking him to help Mi Yixian?
“Here comes someone.” Yi Zhen said, “Go and ask Mr. Mi to come...Wait a minute, I’ll go there myself.”
Yi Zhen personally visited the residence of several members of the Mi family. , making the servants inside fearful.
"The master suddenly fell into a coma. He has already sent for a doctor."
Yi Zhen smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm here to see Mr. Mi."
The servants took care of him. He led him to Mi Yixian's side, and happened to see the eldest son, who was always seriously ill, punch Mi Zhenbang to the ground.
This scene shocked the Mi family’s servants, almost thinking they had seen it wrong.
But Yi Zhen was calm and his eyes were shining.
In less than half an hour since he sent the letter to Si Ye Mansion, Mi Yixian had transformed from a person who had been seriously ill for many years back to a normal person, even worse than a normal person. This method is really amazing.
“Brother Mi!” He greeted him with a reserved smile.
Mi Yixian, who had just let out a breath of anger, looked up and was stunned by the enthusiasm of the fourth prince, whom he had never interacted with before.
"Your Highness?"
He came to his senses and was about to salute when he was stopped by Yi Zhen, "We two don't have to be so polite."
Mi Yixian: "..."
Could it be that his memory was wrong? When did he have a "no need to be polite" relationship with the fourth prince?
Yi Zhen held his hand and sighed: "It's still a little cold. Brother Xian's body has just recovered and he can't bear the cold. Let's go into the house and talk."
Brother Mi became Brother Xian again. , Mi Yixian was stunned when he was pulled into the room.
It wasn’t until he sat down that he reacted. How did the fourth prince know that he had just recovered?
