Chapter 56: Suspicion
The first page of Yanyan's article recommended Oh, comrades, I hope you will be more diligent in pointing at me, hitting me, pushing me, and accepting me! Oh no, it's click me, tip me, recommend me, and bookmark me.
Body:
My injuries were indeed much more serious than Du Yichun's as Mu Qinghe said, and I had been lying in bed for several days since I passed out that day. Mu Qinghe acupuncture for me every day, and now it is the seventh day.
I still have the strength to nest in bed, thinking about the conversation with Du Yichun that day, my heart is infinitely dark.
That day, Du Yichun heard me call him "Brother Jiu", nodded with satisfaction: "Well, this sounds okay." But then again, who did you offend to want your life?"
I shook my head blankly and said, "In the past two days, I can't even think of it." Come to think of it, the only one who wants to find me is my father. But my dad will never kill me. ”
Du Yichun didn't speak, thoughtful.
I saw that he seemed to know something, and hurriedly asked, "What are you thinking?" Is there any clue?"
Du Yichun smiled and said: "It's nothing, it's just a small thing, and it may not explain anything." ”
My curiosity was completely aroused, and I asked, "Brother Jiu, what is it?" Don't sell it, maybe I can deduce who is the culprit from this little thing?"
Du Yichun saw that I was so persistent, so he had to say: "Originally, it was nothing, but when I was making a move, I cut through the clothes of one of the black-clothed people with a sword, and I seemed to have caught a glimpse of a waist card." Looking at the shape of that sign, I saw it when I returned to Beijing, it seems to be the waist card of the forbidden army in Beijing. But I didn't see it clearly, so I'm not sure. ”
The forbidden army in the capital? That name finally jumped out again and appeared in front of me, the name I had been deliberately forgetting, Jiang Yunlin......
My heart felt like it was being torn apart, and the pain made me feel like I was suffocating for a moment, and the wound that I had been deliberately ignoring was suddenly pulled open, and I was unprepared. So I pressed my chest down, afraid that my heart would crack directly. I thought I didn't care anymore, but I got a taste of it again. I thought that if I didn't mention him and think of him, the wound would be healed, but reality gave me a hard blow, and it turned out that I still couldn't afford the betrayal and blow of these two lives.
Actually, I didn't think that maybe it was him, but I never believed that he would be so cruel. But when the truth was revealed without warning, he realized that it had already exceeded his bearing.
Du Yichun noticed that my face was wrong, and asked anxiously, "What's wrong?" Is there something wrong with the wound?"
I reluctantly smiled and said, "It's okay," but I couldn't die in my heart anyway, so I asked, "You said that is really the famous brand of the Beijing Forbidden Army?"
Du Yichun shook his head uncertainly: "Actually, I can't see it clearly, I only saw it once last time I went back to Beijing, and this time I just glanced at it, I just felt that the shape, texture, and color were a bit similar, and I couldn't study it deeply, and I couldn't make it accurate." “
My body trembled slightly, and I thought my face was no longer visible. Du Yichun thought I was cold, so he took my hand lightly and helped me rub my hands and breathe. I didn't speak, I didn't understand my mind. But after some struggle, I decided to give up on the truth, because I was convinced that it was not an answer that would be pleasant to me.
Du Yichun must have felt something, so after waiting for a while, seeing that I still didn't speak, he asked me tentatively: "If, I mean if, it is really the famous brand of the forbidden army in the capital, have you thought of anything?"
I shook my head, not wanting to continue the conversation.
Du Yichun saw that I didn't talk, and continued to reluctantly say: "If it is a forbidden army, then it should be my fourth ...... I am in the jurisdiction of the four princes, ......" I heard the words "four princes", and my hand shrank unexpectedly.
Du Yichun was helping me rub my hands, naturally he felt obvious, he raised his eyes, his eyes were full of deep research and questions: "Mu Qing, do you have anything to do with the fourth prince?"
After he finished speaking, he kept staring at me, and I didn't want to answer because I didn't think I could fool him, and I didn't want to fool him. But seeing his expression and thinking of the past between me and Jiang Yunlin, I don't know where to start. So, I had to ...... Lie to him.
"How so? The four princes are famous all over the world, and I heard that the emperor's favorite is him. And I'm just a concubine who is not taken seriously. How can two people who are so different have anything to do with each other?" I spoke slowly, not only to him, but also to myself. Yes, from the beginning, Jiang Yunlin and I were destined to be full of deception, malice, and betrayal...... And these are all past things that are not worth mentioning. But why haven't I given up, still haven't believed, and still ...... Thinking about him?
Du Yichun let out an "oh", but looking at his expression, he was suspicious. But fortunately, the topic was stopped and we didn't mention it again.
Thinking back to everything that day, although we never talked about it again, it became a knot in my heart. Actually, I don't want to fool Du Yichun, and I can't fool him. The fourth prince asked to marry the fifth lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion in public, although it was not successful, the emperor and the Prime Minister's Mansion should have done confidential work, but only if someone has a heart to check, they will definitely know. If he knew, how would I respond to me lying to him? Alas, I tucked my head into the quilt to hide my face, and now I think about it, why don't I tell the truth, tell a lie that will be easily exposed, what is wrong with me?
On the other hand, for Jiang Yunlin, I feel that maybe I am too arbitrary, Du Yichun actually didn't see it clearly, maybe it wasn't him. I couldn't believe he was going to hunt me down for those ridiculous words, so why didn't he do it that day? But...... I can't justify myself, I'm struggling with this contradiction, I can't extricate myself.
"Girl, are you trying to suffocate yourself?"
I knew it was Mu Qinghe coming when I heard the voice. Although it was only a few days, we were unusually close to each other, probably because we were both very stubborn, and we had to convince each other to support us every time, and at the same time, there were a lot of twists and turns in our stomachs. Therefore, we became sympathetic to each other after constantly arguing with each other.
With a light on his head, it was Mu Qinghe who uncovered the quilt. As soon as I saw the light, I screamed and tried to find something to cover my eyes.
"Are you a vampoo now?" Mu Qinghe said as if he couldn't hold back a smile.
I took my hand off and said angrily to him, "Please, it's a vampire!" ”
This was the last time he and I were discussing whether cutting meat to make medicine would have any medicinal effects, and I told him that there was a creature, or a kind of "man", far away in the west, who lived by sucking human blood and could live forever, but when he saw the sun, it would be destroyed. At the time, he didn't believe it, and we argued for a long time, but now it's good, and he immediately used it to tease me.
Although Mu Qinghe is old, he is not old-fashioned, and sometimes I even think that Du Yichun is more like an old man than him when he is deep, and he seems to be only seventeen or eighteen years old. Like now, he blinked, nodded, and said, "Okay, it's a vampire." Then he pretended to be mysterious and lowered his voice and said, "But, girl, I think Xiao Jiu is fine." You shouldn't think about other men?"
I was shocked and asked, "What man?"
Mu Qinghe pursed his lips, pointed to the door with his hand, and said, "Well, standing at the door." I came early in the morning, but I didn't dare to come in. ”
