"So that's how it is," Zhong Mingwei nodded, taking a sip of tea. He then asked in confusion, "But what does this have to do with me? Why did Commander Ma come all the way to Ningguta?"
Yes, Ma Zhiming's identity is extraordinary. The safety of His Majesty and even the entire imperial city is at stake. If it is not extremely urgent, Ma Zhiming will never leave Beijing.
"Master, the reason why I personally went to Ningguta is that someone asked me to bring you a message. Please listen carefully." Ma Zhiming said in a deep voice, while standing up and respectfully speaking to Zhong Mingwei. "No matter who will be involved in the downfall of the Xu family, whether it is people in southern Xinjiang, people in the harem, or people in Mount Wutai, please do not care. You are no longer a member of the royal family, and you have nothing to do with the Xu family. You are just a country bumpkin now. Although your life is hard now, it is much better than before, so cherish it, and don't throw away this hard-earned peace and happiness for the sake of the past. Remember! Remember!"
As soon as Ma Zhiming finished speaking, Zhong Mingwei suddenly sat up from the couch. His face was extremely ugly. He stared at Ma Zhiming, then suddenly turned to Pang Yi and roared hysterically: "Jinghui! How is Jinghui?!"
"Master..." Pang Yi was startled. Seeing Zhong Mingwei like this, he felt very guilty. When the empress dowager asked him to bring Jinghui from Mount Wutai to the palace, he knew that this day would come sooner or later. As a personal guard who had been with Zhong Mingwei since childhood, he naturally knew best what Jinghui meant to Zhong Mingwei. So he had been mentally prepared to face Zhong Mingwei's rage. But at this moment, he was still very nervous and guilty. His lips trembled for a long time and he couldn't utter a word. Then his legs softened and he knelt down.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Mei Ya heard the noise in the backyard from the front yard, and ran in from the back. As soon as she entered the door, she saw such a scene. Fang Zuotang and a man she had never seen before were standing with their backs bent, Pang Yi was kneeling at Zhong Mingwei's feet, and Zhong Mingwei was staring out the window with his fists clenched, with an expression of violent anger that could not be concealed. Mei Ya had never seen Zhong Mingwei with such an expression before, so she walked over carefully, patted Zhong Mingwei's hand, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong? Why are you so angry?"
Zhong Mingwei exhaled deeply and ignored Mei Ya. He silently turned his gaze to Pang Yi again, suddenly raised his foot and kicked Pang Yi to the ground, then he limped out of the room.
"Zhong Mingwei, are you crazy?" Mei Ya was shocked. After Zhong Mingwei left the study, she yelled out of the window, then squatted down to help Pang Yi, while apologizing non-stop, "Pang Yi, don't argue with him. I think his brain must have been squeezed by the door panel, and it's not working well. Come on, get up quickly..."
"Madam, don't blame me. I did something wrong and I deserve to be punished." Pang Yi said in a hoarse voice. He refused to get up from the ground and just knelt there straight.
"What are you doing?" Mei Ya was so anxious that she broke out in sweat. When Pang Yi first came to Ningguta, he and Zhong Mingwei had an obvious master-servant relationship. She felt uncomfortable watching them and felt a little sorry for Pang Yi. Later, as they lived in the same courtyard for a long time, their relationship gradually became harmonious. Pang Yi also changed from his original taciturn personality to an increasingly noisy and annoying chatterbox. But she really liked this change. She liked Zhong Mingwei's increasingly approachable attitude and the strong worldly air about him. She also liked Pang Yi's increasingly cheerful attitude and his unwillingness to regard himself as a servant. But today, Pang Yi suddenly turned back into a servant, kneeling in front of her so humbly. Mei Ya felt so uncomfortable.
"Pang Yi, listen to me, get up quickly, he is just angry for a moment, let's not argue with him," Mei Ya's voice was a little hoarse when she spoke again, she went over to help Pang Yi up, and then she said with some unquestionable tone, "If you still regard me as your wife, then listen to me, don't just listen to your master blindly, do you hear me?"
