Lin Xinru looked at Du Xiaomeng with a calm face suspiciously, and after a while, she said uneasily: "Xiang'er, although it is said that His Royal Highness is now pampering you and protecting you, and the little county lord also likes you very much, but the rules that should be followed still have to be observed." Yi Cui Tingyu Pavilion is the forbidden place of Rui Wang's Mansion, you must not start the idea of breaking in, you know? ”

"Got it." Du Xiaomeng responded absentmindedly.

"Xiang'er!" Lin Xinru took her hand and shook it vigorously, and said in an accentuated tone: "You must remember what I told you, so that it will be good for you!" ”

Du Xiaomeng smiled at her and said, "I will keep your words firmly in mind, the rules that should be followed must be observed, and the places that should not be gone must not be gone, right?" ”

Lin Xinru wanted to say something more, Du Xiaomeng suddenly thought of a question at this time, she took the first step to speak and asked: "Miss, do you know what the situation in the General's Mansion is now?" ”

She had asked Meijing and Xia Yu this question before, but both of them said that they had stayed in the palace since the Rui Wangfu was surrounded, and they didn't know much about what was happening in the outside world, let alone the affairs of the General's Mansion.

Caught off guard by Du Xiaomeng about this problem, Lin Xinru looked at her for a long time before she came back to her senses and said softly: "I heard that Mrs. Qiu turned out to be a spy of the Northern Barbarian Kingdom lurking in Qiyang. Although General Zhan made great contributions to quelling the rebellion, because of Lady Qiu, General Zhan was suspected of colluding with the Northern Barbarians, and he is now suspended from his post and staying at home to wait for further investigation by the imperial court. ”

Du Xiaomeng's hands subconsciously clenched the quilt. She had long guessed what kind of trouble there would be when the Infernal Affairs of Qiusha came out of the General's Mansion, but now that she heard Lin Xinru say this, her guess was confirmed, and her mood suddenly became extremely heavy.

Seeing that Du Xiaomeng's face was not so good, Lin Xinru hurriedly said: "However, although General Zhan was implicated, His Royal Highness insisted above the court that General Zhan would never do anything to collaborate with the enemy and betray the country, and vouched for General Zhan with his position as the crown prince in front of the emperor." With His Royal Highness in the middle, General Zhan and all the people in the general's mansion were not imprisoned and a group of rebel ministers were tortured. General Zhan is a good person, how can such a good person have anything to do with the Northern Barbarian spies! He must have been kept in the dark by the ill-intentioned Mrs. Qiu, and now His Royal Highness Libao General Libao has personally gone to the Criminal Department to supervise the interrogation process, and the matter should soon be investigated and General Zhan will be innocent, Xiang'er, don't you say? ”

Du Xiaomeng lowered her eyes and did not speak.

She believed that Zhan Qi would not do anything to collaborate with the enemy and treason, and she also believed that he had been deceived by Qiu Sha and did not know it, but what was the use of her believing it? As we all know, for many years, there is only one woman Qiu Sha by General Zhan's side, and anyone who knows a little about the General's Mansion probably knows how the Mrs. Qiu in the General's Mansion is favored by the general, if the general doesn't know that the close lover who has been with him for many years is a Northern Barbarian spy, and he doesn't even notice that the person next to the pillow is abnormal, will others believe it?

The answer is no. If she hadn't lived in the General's Mansion for a while, she knew what kind of person Zhan Qi was, and knew how Qiu Sha would pretend to be pitiful and innocent, she wouldn't believe that Zhan Qi hadn't realized that the person next to her pillow was a scheming spy for so many years.

was involved in the suspicion of collaborating with the enemy and treason, even if Yu Tianzheng tried his best to maneuver and maintain it, I am afraid and it is difficult to find out soon as Lin Xinru said.

Realizing that what she said made Du Xiaomeng's mood more and more depressed, Lin Xinru hurriedly opened the topic with anxiety, and stopped mentioning things related to the General's Mansion, only saying things that were inconsequential and thought they were relaxed and happy.

Although Lin Xinru tried her best to say something else to make Du Xiaomeng's mood better, Du Xiaomeng couldn't be happy at all. After Lin Xinru left, she still looked a little sullen until Yu Tianzheng came back in the afternoon.

Yu Tianzheng had heard from Meijing before coming in that Lin Xinru had visited before, and probably guessed that Du Xiaomeng should have heard something from Lin Xinru.

He put the scroll on the table, strode over to the bed, sat down, and asked, "How did you feel today?" ”

Du Xiaomeng pulled out a smile and said, "It's okay." ”

Yu Tianzheng's gaze fell on her face, and he asked again, "Not happy?" Is something going on? ”

"Nope." Du Xiaomeng shook her head.

"Really?" Yu Tianzheng chuckled and took her hand, looked into her eyes, and said, "If you have something, you might as well speak up to me, maybe I can help you solve your worries." ”

Du Xiaomeng originally wanted to insist that it was okay, but when she saw the smile on Yu Tianzheng's face and the staring gaze, she swallowed back the words she was about to say. After hesitating for a moment, she still asked the question she had pressed in her heart: "Will the General's Mansion fall into a place of no return because of Qiu Sha?" ”

The smile on Yu Tianzheng's face did not change in the slightest, and he asked in a calm tone, "Is Xiao Meng worried about General Zhan?" ”

Du Xiaomeng was stunned, and a trace of inexplicable panic came to mind. She hurriedly said, "Of course not, I'm worried about Old Man Zhan." ”

Yu Tianzheng looked at her with a smile and a word.

She turned her face away from Yu Tianzheng's gaze that seemed to be about to see through her heart, as if to prove something, raised her voice a little and continued: "Before the rebellion, Old Man Zhan had been sick in bed, and if another disaster fell to the General's Mansion, I am afraid that he will not be able to bear it." Speaking of this, her head lowered and her voice lowered, "Old Man Zhan has always treated me like his own daughter, and I really don't want to see him suffer any disasters because of his spy." ”

Yu Tianzheng patted her head and said, "These things are not for you to worry about. Don't worry, as long as General Zhan has not done anything to hook up the enemy and commit treason, I will definitely do my best to keep the General's Mansion and will not let anyone suffer unjustly. ”

Du Xiaomeng still has a kinship. She looked at Yu Tianzheng and asked uncertainly, "Tianzheng, can you really guarantee that no one will be wronged?" ”

Yu Tianzheng shook her hand a little harder, and said, "I will not allow anyone to take the opportunity to frame innocent people, don't worry." ”

Du Xiaomeng wanted to say something, but Yu Tianzheng let go of her hand and said apologetically: "I still have some files to deal with, you have a good rest, and I will accompany you when I am done." ”

With that, he stood up, turned around, picked up the paperwork on the table, and walked to the outer hall.

The outer hall is actually Yu Tianzheng's study, after Du Xiaomeng's health improved, he no longer stayed in front of the bed to work, and if there was a file to take home to read, he went to the outer hall to see.

Du Xiaomeng didn't see a strange look on Yu Tianzheng's face when she turned around to take the scroll on the table, she looked at Yu Tianzheng's back walking out, and what she thought of was the figure of another person.

Yu Tianzheng walked out without looking back, and he couldn't see Du Xiaomeng's depressed appearance. He walked to the outer hall with the scroll in his arms, put it down, pressed his hands on the table, and looked at the scroll on the table, and the smile on his face gradually dissipated, replaced by a helpless look.

Du Xiaomeng, who was sitting on the bed, was stunned for a while before coming back to his senses. She glanced out and heard the sound of flipping through the files outside, and she was a little distracted.

She remembered the first time she met Yu Tianzheng. A mature, stable and gentle man like Yu Tianzheng is exactly the type she liked in the past, and those eyes as bright as stars have also stirred up a thousand waves in her heart. Aside from the fact that Yu Tianzheng has many wives and concubines, according to common sense, she should fall in love with Yu Tianzheng, but not only did she not fall in love with Yu Tianzheng, but she had a heart to resist him.

When did you become resistant to the type of man you like? Du Xiaomeng leaned his head on the pillow to find out the answer, but once again let the figure of that person linger in his mind. She sat up, shook her head vigorously in annoyance, clenched her fists and said to herself: I can't let a bastard who repeatedly sells herself to others disturb her thoughts!

Suppressing her irritable mood, Du Xiaomeng spent a few more days in peace.

With the royal doctor stationed in the palace and did not dare to observe the condition in the slightest, using the best and most expensive medicine to recuperate her, as well as the care of beautiful scenery and Xia Yu, Du Xiaomeng's illness has been cured by more than half in a few days.

With the spirit, Du Xiaomeng, who was curious by Yicui Tingyu Pavilion, wanted to run out, but encountered the biggest snow since the beginning of winter, and the temperature dropped to the lowest in the year.

On days when the sky was full of ice and snow and so cold that even if he put on a fox fur, he still felt that it was not so warm, Du Xiaomeng, who had always had a shadow on the stove, could only nest in the house and roast his hands around the stove to keep warm.

Although Du Xiaomeng couldn't go anywhere in the house, when she had the spirit and didn't need to spend most of her time in bed to recuperate, Yu Tianzheng asked Meijing and Xia Yu to bring her a lot of clothes and jewelry to dress her up.

The clothes were very much in line with Yu Tianzheng's usual taste, and they were all kinds of red in different shades; And jewelry, there is no accident to see all kinds of plum blossoms.

Meijing and Xia Yu spend a lot of effort every day to dress her up and clean her up beautifully. The hairstyles they combed for Du Xiaomeng were all things that Du Xiaomeng had never seen before, and every time after the two of them were carefully dressed, Du Xiaomeng would have a strange feeling when she looked at herself in the mirror, as if she had seen another person.

Yu Tianzheng should be very satisfied with Du Xiaomeng's new look, and every time she sees her dressed up, she always shows an appreciative smile. However, Du Xiaomeng faintly felt that Yu Tianzheng's gaze seemed to be a little strange when he looked at her, and he couldn't tell where to blame her.

On this day, Du Xiaomeng had lunch under the service of beautiful scenery and summer rain, and sat bored with a hand warmer to the window to open the window a little to watch the snowflakes flying outside, and gradually saw that he was distracted, and he didn't even notice that Yu Tianzheng walked in from outside.
