I am the Prime Minister's White Moonlight (Rebirth)

66

Yin Hongyu seemed to be hit on the head by something. His head buzzed. He slowly raised his head and looked at Yin Mei, his voice hoarse, "You, you said...what did you say?"

"This not only involves Lord Shen, but also... the Crown Prince. This matter involves forming a clique for personal gain and corruption in the imperial mausoleum. The Emperor will not let you off easily." Yin Mei said, "When you did those things, didn't you think that there would be a day like today?"

Yin Hongyu was stunned and stared at Yin Mei blankly.

"Today, I'm here to see you for the last time." Yin Mei took a package from the side. In the package was a soft quilt, some food and pastries, and a bottle of wine.

"Since no one else could come in, I did it for them."

Yin Hongyu looked at her with red eyes and an extremely complicated expression, as if he was meeting her for the first time.

"I'll give you a ride."

"Yin Mei!" Yin Hongyu yelled, "You, you unfilial daughter! Unfilial daughter!"

Yin Hongyu finally broke down and reached out to grab her hair. Yin Mei was prepared. She stayed out of his reach and looked at him quietly, tears falling from her eyes.

She quietly watched Yin Hongyu finish his madness and whispered, "Thank you, father, for giving birth to me."

After hearing this, Yin Hongyu slowly calmed down.

"My uncle and aunt raised me, the teacher at the academy taught me, my mother gave birth to me, and Lord Shen saved me." Yin Mei cried as she said, "Father, what have you done? You just wanted to give me to the prince and let him bully me in exchange for your own safety."

Yin Hongyu looked at her with red eyes.

"You have lived your life for yourself, and everything you do is for yourself. In the end, naturally no one will help you." Yin Mei looked at him, choking with sobs, "Your mother, who truly loved you, died because of you, and Yin Xing, who listened to you and was raised by you, had to be exiled. Can you blame anyone for this?"

"Yin Mei, is this what you came here to say?" Yin Hongyu looked at her with trembling fingers.

Yin Mei looked very much like her mother. Yin Hongyu's eyes were blurred, as if he saw his wife who had passed away long ago, crying in front of him.

"I came here today to say goodbye to the past." Yin Mei said slowly, "I also came to fulfill a wish for my mother. My aunt said that before my mother died, her greatest wish was to watch you die with her own eyes."

"I'm sorry, Yin Mei." Yin Hongyu's eyes turned red and tears fell, "It's my fault."

Yin Mei clenched her fists and her whole body trembled slightly.

"I have come to this point because I am too greedy. For the sake of money, I did whatever it takes and fell into the trap set by the prince and his men..." Yin Hongyu's old face was covered with tears. "I will tell the officials in the Ministry of Justice everything. I will help Lord Shen get rid of the crime. This matter has nothing to do with him."

"I have committed many sins, and the person I feel most sorry for in this life is your mother."

"It's good that you know it." Yin Mei gritted her teeth.

"The second person I'm sorry to is you, Yin Mei."

"The so-called beauty is by the water. Yin Mei, I loved your mother sincerely. I was the one who gave you your name. At that time, I hoped that you would be as beautiful as your mother... But later, it was indeed my fault. I failed to control Yin Xing and let him bully you at will. Later, I even let you fall off the cliff..."
