My Lord, your wife is spreading rumors about you again.

Chapter 28 The Rebel King's Daughter
Mingli was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Liu Liu? Real name?"

Liu Liu bit his lip and nodded silently. He had a feminine appearance and looked extremely gentle. His every move made it hard to doubt whether he was a complete man.

Mingli asked again: "Where did you come from?"

Liu Liu replied tremblingly: "Anxianglou"

Hearing this, Mingli's eyes suddenly showed doubt, "Anxianglou? Are you a waiter?"

"Waiter?" Liu Liu had been a prostitute for seven or eight years, but this was the first time he heard someone say she was a waiter. He asked tentatively, "Miss, do you know what Anxianglou does?"

This question confused Mingli: "Isn't it a restaurant?"

"It's a brothel."

Mingli blinked, still not understanding. Brothel? What is a brothel? A cyan-colored restaurant?
My sister never mentioned it in the letter, and it seems that the master never told her about it either.

At this time, Shan Cha came back after sending Nanny Li away. She happened to hear the conversation between Ming Li and Liu Liu. Her face turned red. How could her daughter explain to the second girl what a brothel is in the letter?

She hurried over and whispered a few words into Mingli's ear.

Mingli said "Oh" and nodded in understanding. No wonder when she said she wanted to go to Anxianglou, Zhang Zhi and Shancha both showed that weird expression.

"Do you have any water slaves in your Anxiang Tower?"

Liu Liu nodded truthfully: "Yes, which one do you want to play, girl?"

Mingli held her chin and thought for a while, and she decided to leave Zhang Zhi behind. With someone from Anxianglou in front of her, why did she still need Zhang Zhi to lead the way?
Obviously not necessary.

"Then take me to see it." Mingli took a dagger and cut the hemp rope that bound his wrists. "Don't think about escaping. After tonight, I will let you go. If you have any other thoughts, I will poison you to death."

Shan Cha was stunned when she heard this. "Miss, are you going to Anxiang Tower now? It's going to be dark soon. When will you be back?"

"I'll be back before I get up tomorrow morning."

Mingli picked up a woman's dress and threw it to Liuliu, "Put it on, and I'll take you out later."

After saying that, Mingli walked away, and Shancha followed him with an anxious look on his face.

"No, I don't agree with you going! Second Miss, are you crazy? You haven't slept for two nights, you've dealt with so many people, and you haven't even had a hot meal. Even if you don't want to die, you shouldn't go through so much trouble like you did."

Mingli didn't care. She took out a well-wrapped handkerchief from her bosom and handed it to Shancha. "Here, I think this snack is good, so I specially left two for you. Eat it."

Shancha took it and grabbed Mingli, "No, I can skip the snack, but you can't go! I'll go to the kitchen to get dinner. After dinner, you can take a bath and I'll help you get a good sleep."

Mingli smiled helplessly. She looked at Shancha steadily and said, "I'm not tired. Shancha, some things should be done as soon as possible. Don't you want to avenge your sister as soon as possible? Don't you want to find out the real cause of Mingxin and Mingyi's death as soon as possible?"

Shancha: “I…”

Of course she wanted to, but...

At this time, Liuliu had already put on his clothes and pushed open the wooden door. He really had a woman's appearance, and he was not tall. With his long hair, he looked just like a young girl.

He didn't have much dislike for this kind of outfit, but rather enjoyed it.

"Girl, shall we go now?"

"Yes." Mingli nodded, "Let's go."...

Zhenbeihou Mansion
Old Marquis Zhang has heard everything that happened in the Ming family today.

Zhang Zhi was silent for a long time before he spoke: "Dad, when Madam Wen gave birth to a daughter, was it one, or a pair?"

Upon hearing this question, Lord Zhang's expression changed immediately.

"What do you know?"

"Dad, why are you so anxious? I don't know, I'm just guessing." Zhang Zhi sat down. "Actually, I met her when I was young in Mobei. Later, when I returned to Beijing, I heard that Mingli married into the Zhou family. I also secretly went to see her several times and even deliberately approached her to chat with her. I felt that she was not the same as before."

Coincidentally, it was just a few days ago that the forces under Zhang Zhi slowly moved back to Beijing, and the first news they got was that the entire Zhou family was slaughtered.

His heart was in a mess and he dropped all his things and rushed straight to Zhou's house with his men.

Unexpectedly, when he arrived, he saw Mingli calmly cutting off Zhou Shu's head.

Her face and body were covered in blood, and her eyes were filled with murderous intent.

At that moment he suddenly realized that it was her, it was definitely her.

Old Marquis Zhang leaned on his crutches and sighed, "Forget it. It doesn't hurt to tell you. I guess everyone who knows about this is dead, and I'm the only one left."

"That year, Wen Wan gave birth to twin girls. The elder sister was left in Kyoto by Grand Tutor Wen, while the younger sister was snatched away by their father."

Zhang Zhi frowned: "Snatched? Their father? Ming Boyuan?"

"Ming Boyuan?" Old Marquis Zhang sneered, "Wen Wan is such a wonderful woman, she even looks down on me, how could she be interested in Ming Boyuan, a fool? At that time, Wen Wan had already secretly married someone, but this person's identity was very special. If Wen Wan really married him, then the entire Wen family would never have peace in the future. That's why Master Wen was anxious to marry Ming Boyuan to stop Wen Wan's idea."

But what Master Wen did not expect was that Wen Wan's personality was too strong. She was unwilling to sacrifice the entire Wen family for herself, but she also did not want to disappoint her lover.

So, the two of them had a secret affair before their marriage, and Wen Wan became pregnant one month after marrying into the Ming family, but the child was not Ming's.

Zhang Zhi lowered his eyes and thought: "Who is the person with a special identity that my father mentioned?"

Lord Zhang did not answer directly: "Who do you think it is?"

"The second son of the late emperor, the rebellious prince Shen Yu."

Old Marquis Zhang sighed again and finally nodded: "It's him."

"Wen Wan loves him, but Shen Yu's heart is divided into two parts, one for Wen Wan and the other for power. He has a strong desire to kill, and the previous emperor was cowardly and unwilling to start a war easily, so he would rather abolish the legitimate heir and establish a concubine than let Shen Yu inherit the throne. This is the reason why he ascended the throne in this life."

Later, the rebel king rebelled, but was suppressed by the backup plan left by the previous emperor, the Wen family, and was defeated miserably.

Finally, the King of Rebellion ordered his men to bring Wen Wan's child to him. The guards thought there was only one girl, so they only took one back.

In this case, the Mingli sisters are actually the legitimate descendants of the previous emperor and are part of the orthodox royal family.

Lord Zhang's face was full of wrinkles, and he remained silent for a long time. "No wonder you said Ming Li killed the entire Zhou family. It turns out that she is back."

Old Marquis Zhang suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhang Zhi very seriously: "Qi Hui, go ask her if she is willing to marry you."
