"Yeah, I've heard about that, too," Zhong Mingwei nodded, picking up a piece of crispy pork for Mei Ya with his chopsticks, and added, "I've never had a good impression of An Zishang, but for the sake of Pang Yi and his wife, as long as he behaves himself, I'm willing to let him stay in the capital. But if he doesn't behave himself, then naturally he doesn't have to stay in the capital anymore."
"That's what I meant. Why not find a reason to send him out of Beijing?" Mei Ya nodded hurriedly. After a pause, she added, "It would be best to choose a remote place for him to retire. I think Lingnan is a good place."
"Well, I also think Lingnan is good. It has a mild climate and is sparsely populated. It is a good place to retire," Zhong Mingwei said with a smile. He stretched out his hand to pinch Mei Ya's cheek and said, "Girl, we are getting more and more in tune with each other."
"Hehe, of course, this is what we call a couple look alike!" Mei Ya was a little proud, eating the crispy meat with her chopsticks, but her face darkened, "But when I think about how An Zishang treated Sister An in the past, I feel very uncomfortable, but I can't really kill him. And that Madam An is so vicious! Just because Sister An is not her biological daughter, just to win over Prince Rong, she is determined to kill Sister An. She is really as vicious as a snake."
Zhong Mingwei drank a mouthful of soup and looked at Mei Ya with a smile: "Talking about other people's business, why are you so excited? Aren't you afraid of choking?"
"I'm standing up for Sister An!" Mei Ya said angrily, "I just regret that there is no suitable name to punish that vicious woman. Otherwise, let her have a good taste of prison. It would be best if she stayed in prison for life and could not get out even if she died!"
"It's actually not difficult to cure her. We don't need to do anything." Zhong Mingwei looked at Mei Ya's angry look and couldn't help but smiled, reaching out to pinch her puffy cheeks.
Mei Ya was startled: "What are you saying..."
"Your Majesty, Commander Kong requests to see you!" Suddenly, a palace servant hurried in to report.
"Announce." Zhong Mingwei said.
"Yes." The palace servant hurriedly took his leave.
"It's so late, and Guard Kong is still looking for you. Something must have happened." Mei Ya looked outside anxiously, and then turned back to ask Zhong Mingwei, "Mingwei, what exactly happened?"
"How would I know?" Zhong Mingwei laughed dumbly, "Let's wait for Wen Min to come in and report."
"Your Highness, your subordinate greets you! Your Highness, your Highness!" Kong Wenmin hurried in and bowed to the two of them.
"Okay, tell me what happened." Zhong Mingwei said.
"Yes," Kong Wenmin said hurriedly, "News just came from the An Mansion that An Zishang and his wife committed suicide by taking poison at home this afternoon."
"What?" Meiya was shocked. "Did An Zishang and his wife take poison? How could that be?"
"Madam, it is absolutely true," Kong Wenmin said to Mei Ya, and added, "But he was discovered in time, An Zishang had already vomited out all the poison and was out of danger, but Madam An died."
"Is An Zishang okay?" Zhong Mingwei frowned and looked at Kong Wenmin. "Since the couple committed suicide by taking poison at the same time, how come Mrs. An died but An Zishang is okay?"
"This subordinate also feels something is strange," Kong Wenmin said, thinking for a while, then hesitantly said, "I heard from the housekeeper of the An Mansion that Madam An fell ill due to missing her daughter and has been unable to get out of bed for half a year. She has always been weak, and she took poison. It is obvious that she was determined to die, so it is reasonable that she was not saved."
"Did An Zishang and his wife commit suicide by taking poison because they missed their daughter so much?" Zhong Mingwei asked with a frown.
"Oh, here is the suicide note left by An Zishang and his wife before they committed suicide. I brought it to His Majesty." Kong Wenmin said, while busy taking out the suicide note from his arms and handing it to Zhong Mingwei.
