Chapter 55: Suspicions Confirmed
Du Xiaomeng, who was accompanied by her grandfather in the dream, slept peacefully, and slept like this until the next day. She slept beautifully, and felt that she didn't know that the dream words she inadvertently shouted would make Yu Tianzheng feel troubled, and she didn't know that his hands were grabbed by him, and he sat on the edge of the bed almost all night without closing his eyes, just to change his sitting position at any time in order to accommodate her sleeping position.
Du Xiaomeng, who had slept enough, woke up naturally, and as soon as she opened her worried eyes, she saw a figure shaking beside the bed, and she had not completely recovered from her sweet sleep, she rubbed her eyes, smiled and shouted to the figure: "Grandfather." ”
The man replied to her, "Awake?" ”
Hey? This voice is completely different from the voice of my grandfather in my memory. Du Xiaomeng put down her hand rubbing her eyes with some confusion, raised her eyes to look at the figure in front of the bed, and then she saw clearly that this person was not the grandfather in the dream, but Yu Tianzheng; Then she found that Yu Tianzheng was very close to herself, her heart involuntarily panicked, and quickly sat up, so she moved, but she found that her hand didn't know when to grab Yu Tianzheng's hand, and after she sat up, she pulled Yu Tianzheng closer to herself.
She hurriedly shook off Yu Tianzheng's hand and shrank in a little embarrassed.
Yu Tianzheng withdrew his hand that finally regained his freedom, and said to Du Xiaomeng with a smile: "I'll order someone to wash you." With that, he stood up and stretched his hands and feet for the rest of the night, before turning and walking out.
"I'm sorry for you."
Du Xiaomeng's polite voice came softly from behind, Yu Tianzheng stopped and turned around, nodded at her with a smile before turning around and continuing to walk out. The moment he turned his back to Du Xiaomeng, he looked down at the hand that could still feel the temperature on Du Xiaomeng's body, the smile on his face tightened a little, and he sighed a little helplessly in his heart.
The two maids who had changed Du Xiaomeng's clothes before quickly appeared in front of Du Xiaomeng with warm water for washing their faces and washing utensils. After the two handmaidens who were quick with their hands and feet helped Du Xiaomeng freshen up, Yu Tianzheng personally brought back the breakfast.
Breakfast is still sweet porridge, but it's a little different from before. The previous time it was medicinal sweet porridge, and this time it was longan red berry porridge.
Du Xiaomeng didn't want to bother others in line with the principle of "do it yourself", but her body didn't recover much because of a sleep, and her hands and feet were not very controlled by herself, she almost knocked over the bowl as soon as she put it in her hand, but fortunately, Yu Tianzheng quickly stabilized the bowl, so as not to make the bed full of porridge. Although Du Xiaomeng was not so willing, in the face of the cruel reality, in desperation, she still had to bother Yu Tianzheng to feed her again.
After eating a few mouthfuls of porridge, Du Xiaomeng suddenly raised his head and asked, "What happened to the rebellion in the palace?" ”
Yu Tianzheng replied while feeding porridge to Du Xiaomeng's mouth: "Because the third prince brother died unexpectedly, we quickly controlled the situation in the palace and quelled the rebellion, and easily captured the people related to this rebellion one by one. ”
Du Xiaomeng asked again: "What about the Northern Barbarians who helped the Three Princes to make trouble?" ”
Yu Tianzheng paused for a moment and said: "After stabilizing the situation in the palace and rescuing the emperor, the emperor ordered a comprehensive search for the northern barbarians in the city, regardless of whether they participated in this rebellion or not, they were all arrested and put in prison together with other rebels, and interrogated by the criminal department one by one. ”
Du Xiaomeng glanced at Yu Tianzheng, and then asked, "Qiu Sha was also arrested and put in prison?" ”
"Nope." Yu Tianzheng shook his head, "She's missing, although I've ordered people to keep an eye out for her whereabouts, but nothing has been found. ”
It's not sure if Qiu Sha is a 100% Northern Barbarian spy, and he doesn't know what Yu Tianzheng knows, but Du Xiaomeng knows that if he says something he shouldn't say in this extraordinary period, it will definitely bring unnecessary trouble to others, and it will even be a catastrophe. She hesitated for a moment, and then asked tentatively, "Hearing you say this, Qiusha should be an important target to capture." Does she also have something to do with this rebellion? ”
"The stakes are high. She is a spy, and she is also a spy who was personally cultivated by the king of the Northern Barbarian Kingdom and sent to lurk in Qiyang. Yu Tianzheng didn't mean to hide it, and told her what Du Xiaomeng wanted to know in a calm tone.
When the suspicions that had been long ago were answered affirmatively, Du Xiaomeng's first reaction was that her heart tightened, and she didn't think much about anything else and hurriedly asked: "If Qiusha is a spy, how will the General's Mansion be implicated because of this?" ”
Yu Tianzheng didn't answer her question immediately, but smiled and picked up a spoonful of porridge and said, "I will take care of this matter, you don't need to worry about it." ”
The Rui Wangfu has a close relationship with the General's Mansion, and if such a thing happens, there is no reason to sit idly by, whether it is in public or private Yutianzheng; Besides, in this palace change, the General's Mansion suffered greatly, and Zhan Qi also contributed to helping Yu Tianzheng to calm down the civil strife. In this way, even if it is found out that Qiu Sha is a spy of the Northern Barbarians, she should be able to make up for it, and she will not end up with a lot of slashes, right?
Although thinking of this, Du Xiaomeng still couldn't help worrying. Even if Yu Tianzheng has the heart to protect the general's mansion, how many people in the court are on the same side as him? Will those forces that oppose Yu Tianzheng do nothing in this extraordinary period? The answer is no. It's rare to have such a good opportunity to hit the opponent, and they will definitely bite it. Who doesn't know that the General's Mansion has always been His Royal Highness's staunchest supporter and most influential ally? As long as Zhan Qi, who is like Yu Tianzheng's arm, is removed, the political chips in Yu Tianzheng's hands will be reduced a lot, and there will be less resistance to dealing with him in the future.
Du Xiaomeng, who was worried, ignored the porridge sent by Yu Tianzheng, and hurriedly said: "Even if Qiu Sha is a spy, the people in the general's mansion should be unaware......"
"What you have to do now is take care of your body and don't worry about anything else." Yu Tianzheng frowned a little unhappily, and interrupted Du Xiaomeng's words with something to say.
Seeing Yu Tianzheng's displeasure, Du Xiaomeng faintly felt that he didn't want to hear him talk about things related to the General's Mansion. She shut up in amusement, obediently lowered her head and continued to eat porridge.
The two fell silent, and the room was uncomfortably quiet.
After eating a few bites of porridge, Du Xiaomeng finally couldn't help but say: "Actually, I have long suspected that Qiu Sha is a spy. ”
"Oh?" Yu Tianzheng seemed to be intrigued by her words, and raised his head to look at her.
Du Xiaomeng met his gaze and said, "To be precise, it was Old Man Zhan who suspected Qiu Sha of being a spy, and then he told me the suspicions." ”
Yu Tianzheng looked at her and didn't speak.
Seeing that he didn't mean to stop himself from talking, Du Xiaomeng took a breath, and then told how Old Man Zhan found Qiu Sha's suspiciousness, how he used tricks to test her, and how he arranged for her to leave the house and go to the barracks to report the news; Of course, in order to sensationalize and strengthen the need for persuasion, Du Xiaomeng also said unreservedly the declaration of loyalty that Old Man Zhan asked her to convey to Zhan Qi.
After trying to finish speaking, Du Xiaomeng, whose body was still in a weak state, was already a little out of breath.
After Yu Tianzheng listened, there was no change in the expression on his face, but he said calmly: "I see." ”
His calmness made Du Xiaomeng secretly wonder if she had said something wrong, but her face did not show it, but pretended to look at Yu Tianzheng with a calm look that was just a matter of facts.
Yu Tianzheng looked at her and smiled slightly, then shook the porridge in his hand and said, "Look at you, when it comes to the porridge, it has become cold, and I have to ask someone to get some fresh ones back." ”
After that, he really took the bowl of cold porridge and the uneaten food on the table and walked outside to let the next person take it and change it. After instructing his subordinates, he quickly returned to the room, sat down in front of the bed and patted Du Xiaomeng's hand with a smile, and said, "Don't worry about the affairs of the General's Mansion anymore, with me, I will definitely not let people with ulterior motives fall into the General's Mansion at this time." ”
