"not see."
Meng Kuo refused without hesitation.
The county magistrate was furious: "The Ming family has harmed my son so badly, and they still have the nerve to ask to see me? Dream on!"
She was even more furious, realizing that she had been deceived by the Ming family and had agreed to this marriage.
As a result, he almost killed his precious son!
The fact that she hasn't asked His Majesty to execute the entire Ming family is already a result of her extreme restraint!
Do you want to see Kuo'er again?
Stop daydreaming!
“But young master, Miss Ming said she wants to apologize to you in person.”
"Her apology has nothing to do with me."
Having experienced life and death, Meng Kuo no longer cared about anything.
Although he only saw Ming Ruyue as a responsibility from the beginning, he believed he had treated her quite well.
Knowing that she was far from the capital, they would send someone to deliver fashionable jewelry from the capital to her two or three times a year.
Knowing that she was in poor health, they would send her good health supplements every month.
Knowing that she had been separated from her family since childhood, they arranged for someone to come to the Ming family every three months to paint her portrait and send it to her, so that she would know about every plant and tree in the family and the changes in the appearance of everyone.
I'm just worried that when she comes back one day, she'll feel like this house is a stranger.
Later, when I arrived at the border town, I met her by chance. I never asked her why she was there, but I took care of her wholeheartedly.
But what about her?
From the time I was six years old and got engaged until now, how many gifts have I given?
But Mingruyue has never returned a single gift!
Perhaps some things had already revealed clues long ago, but he just didn't notice them.
He deserved it; he had nothing to say.
But I've already eaten there once, why would I go again?
"yes."
When the other party saw that Meng Kuo insisted on not seeing him, he left.
The county princess, worried, helped Meng Kuo up and said, "Alright, go and rest. Don't think about the Ming family's affairs anymore."
She will make the Ming family pay the price.
Meng Kuo was weak at the moment and didn't think much of it, so he went to sleep.
To everyone's surprise, the county magistrate went to the prison to see the Ming family.
Although the Ming family members were imprisoned, there was no official decree forbidding visits, so the prison guards were not very strict in their supervision.
They know exactly who can't enter and who can be visited.
Upon entering the prison, the county princess began to frown and covered her mouth with a handkerchief.
She wouldn't have come to such a dirty place if it weren't for Kuo'er!
"Help! Help me!"
"I'm innocent! I'm innocent!"
"It has nothing to do with me, it really has nothing to do with me."
Everyone in the prison, upon seeing someone appear, immediately scrambled over, shouting for help and accusing the injustice.
The jailer following behind the county magistrate knocked on her door several times before the shouting stopped.
But the county princess was still startled, her heart pounding, and she wished she could leave right then and there.
However, she certainly couldn't leave empty-handed.
After several turns, we finally arrived.
The prison here is still very quiet, but it remains dark, and you need a torch to see it clearly.
“Your Highness, this is the place. Please speak here, and I will wait here.”
Even the boldest jailer wouldn't dare let an outsider see a prisoner alone.
In situations like this, someone will be positioned nearby so they can see and hear clearly what is being said.
It wasn't about eavesdropping, but rather the fear that they might kill the prisoner!
Or, if the prisoner were to do anything harmful to the county magistrate, she would be able to detect it immediately.
Otherwise, if the county princess were to suffer any injury, it would be beyond their ability to bear the consequences.
"Okay, go down."
Upon hearing the voices, the Ming family members instinctively looked up.
She's actually a county princess?
Madam Ming immediately rushed over, trying to grab the county princess through the gaps in the railing.
Her hair was messy and her face was dirty; she showed no signs of being a lady of high society.
"Princess, please save us! We really didn't collude with Prince Anping!"
"Princess, please save us! We are truly innocent!"
“Princess, Ming Ruyue was never raised in the Ming family. Who she is and what she does are all her own ideas and have nothing to do with us.”
"Your Highness, this is an adult matter, it has nothing to do with the children. Please, Your Highness, let the children go."
The Ming family cried and begged, hoping that the county magistrate would have mercy and save them.
In fact, the county princess and Madam Ming were good friends, even close confidantes.
Otherwise, if the county princess were so arrogant, why would she have arranged a marriage between her son and the Ming family?
But even the best of friendships can't outweigh the loss of one's son!
"Green Bamboo, what happened to you? You look worse than a peasant woman!"
The county princess said with some disdain.
Mrs. Ming: ...
Once you're in prison, who can still maintain a clean and dignified appearance?
But now that she needed someone's help, Madam Ming dared not refute them.
She simply knelt there and pleaded, "Princess, I know you're angry. But the only one who did wrong is my daughter, Mingruyue. Even if you're still angry, my husband, Yue'er, and I have three lives to pay for it! That's enough. Please, please spare the others."
Madam Ming knew this very well.
The county magistrate was a vindictive person and not exactly kind.
Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to get the county magistrate to release them all.
She doesn't indulge in that daydream.
Even the deepest sins are enough to be repaid by the three of them!
Their own son, daughter-in-law, grandchildren, and other relatives are all innocent.
