Xue Mingyue's eyes were sore and tight, and she shouted again: "Grandpa."

Seeing his granddaughter whom he hadn't seen for a long time calling him in such a pitiful and aggrieved tone, Lou Zhizhang felt distressed and sat on the edge of the bed. He smiled and rubbed her head. He also put it on her forehead to check the temperature. It was still a little hot.

"The doctor said you had cold evil entering your body caused by worrying too much. You are weak and the fatigue of traveling and traveling has aggravated your condition. He asked you to rest and recuperate. He also said that you were disturbed and restless, which is not the case at all. Take care of your body.”

Then things like assassinations are beyond her control.

She takes good care of her body, and even hired a medical teacher to learn medical skills.

Xue Mingyue said weakly: "I didn't."

Lou Zhizhang couldn't believe her words, but seeing her weak appearance, he really couldn't bear to say harsh words to her, so he reluctantly bent his lower lip and said: "The doctor still wants you to stay here and recuperate in peace, Ling Su has already settled the matter I’ve been told everything.”

"We can wait until you recover before we talk about anything else. We have a long way to go."

After saying that, he tucked the quilt for her and said warmly: "Go to sleep, grandpa is here to watch over you."

Xue Mingyue's eyes were sore and filled with mist.

She held on to her sleepiness and shook her head, and said in a hoarse voice: "Grandpa, you don't have to guard me. I still have Liuyun and the others here. You'd better go to sleep. You can't bear to suffer for me."

"It's just one night, it won't cause much damage."

Lou Zhizhang smiled helplessly, looked at her languid appearance, patted the corner of the quilt as usual and coaxed her: "Go to sleep, and you can drink your favorite lily porridge when you wake up."

Amidst the gentle coaxing, Xue Mingyue finally fell asleep.

In this dream, she no longer dreamed about the messy past, but it seemed as if she had returned to her childhood, sitting at the dining table with her grandfather in the early morning, drinking sweet lily porridge, and swaying her feet happily.

……

Compared to the tranquility of Chunxia Town.

The current situation in Beijing can be described as an undercurrent, and everyone is ready to take action.

After all, once Tang Kun is imprisoned, there will be many things that can be involved, such as the position of the general, or the emperor's favor. No one can stop in the face of such temptation.

The news that Xie Lang had returned to Beijing earlier could not be concealed for long at all.

Jin Wuwei was ordered to come and seal the Tang Mansion, but what they found inside was many times more than the amount of money hidden in the entire wall of Yan Chengming's house. Even... what they found was beyond imagination.

Xie Lang completed the task of confiscating the house assigned by Emperor Jingping very well.

It was familiar once and twice, he was the one responsible for searching the Tang family in his previous life, and he remembered too clearly what evidence was hidden where.

Xie Lang is a very vengeful person and he also likes to engage in gangs.

He could even sit on Tang Kun because of the second prince, and then help Princess Pingyang and Tang Qiyan file a royal petition to Emperor Jingping in advance. He could also sit on the second prince because Tang Zhang targeted him and Xue Mingyue at the dinner.

Yes, he is so unreasonable.

Regardless of whether Tang Kun said it or not, Xie Lang had a way of giving a confession that was exactly the same as in his previous life.

But after learning that the second prince sent someone to kidnap Xue Mingyue, Xie Lang changed his mind. He originally didn't want the second prince to lose in this battle so early...

But now he wants Xiao Duo to die even more.

This was the price he paid for sending someone to touch Xue Mingyue.

Seeing that Xiao Duo had recruited him, Xie Lang planned to send the entire second prince's party to accompany him, treating it as a random act of kindness on his part.

However, compared to the evidence that made Emperor Jingping furious, the people were more shocked by the residence of the eldest young master in the mansion.

Neither the common people nor the Jinwu Guards who were ordered to inspect it found it hard to imagine that in the small courtyard of Tang Qiyan's residence, there was actually a set of torture instruments, stained with blood, and the blood on it had long dried and turned black.

Just from here, you can get a glimpse of Tang Qiyan's past.

At this time, no one will talk about how inappropriate it is for Princess Pingyang to sue her husband, let alone that Tang Qiyan should abide by his filial piety and forgive his father magnanimously.

At this time, the people arranged by Xie Lang came out to break the news.

For example, it was not only Tang Kun who beat Tang Qiyan like this, but also the concubines and young masters in the mansion who bullied him. Even the servants in the mansion could attack him when things didn't go his way. .

As a child, Tang Qiyan couldn't resist adults.

So the people in the mansion got used to this practice over time, and naturally they didn't take him seriously.

While the court was working overtime to deal with this matter, what pushed the matter to an unprecedented climax was a new play at Wufu Tea House. The original script of this play was also written by Xue Mingyue.

It's just that it wasn't changed like Yan Chengming did.

Instead, she wrote what happened to Tang Qiyan's mother and son based on her memories of her previous life, but it is different from this life. From Tang Qiyan's perspective, it makes people feel more immersive.

Public opinion quickly aroused in the capital.

At this moment, Xie Lang pushed forward the public opinion, causing everyone to turn their attention from Tang Qiyan back to Tang Kun.

——The money found by Tang Kun’s family included disaster relief money from Shanxi Prefecture.

The last time Shanxi Prefecture needed disaster relief was two years ago.

A severe drought resulted in no harvest in the fields, and a rare cold wave unexpectedly occurred in winter. The imperial court allocated a large amount of disaster relief money to Shanxi Prefecture, but Shanxi Prefecture still suffered numerous starvation deaths that year.

Emperor Jingping was furious and took off the hats of many officials.

Until, Jin Wuwei found the account book from Tang Kun's house, which clearly recorded the source of this sum of money. This was the filial piety silver given to him by the prefect of Shanxi Prefecture, and this was only part of it.

Most of the rest was sent to the second prince's private treasury!

As soon as this news came out, it instantly ignited the anger of all Shanxi people.

……

Xue Mingyue didn't know anything about what happened in the capital.

The illness came like a mountain, and her high fever lasted for several days. During this period, she spent most of the time in a coma and was not awake for long.

And when she was awake, she spent most of the time in distress. She finally returned to her grandpa, but she could only let him stay up late with the lights on every night to accompany her. This really shouldn't be the case.

But Lou Zhizhang was very open-minded. Seeing her distress, he would smile and say, "But I just want to be with my granddaughter."

When he was young, he was busy with his official career and neglected his wife.

When he was middle-aged, he neglected his daughter's growth because he was busy with the academy. When he finally understood and wanted to make up for it, his daughter had already reached the age to get married, and all he could do was to send her off. Get married in style.

But within a few years, her daughter passed away due to illness.

The white-haired man sends the black-haired man.

Lou Zhizhang also thought about whether he was unlucky in life, so his relatives left him one by one, and in the end he only had his young granddaughter left.

Lou Zhizhang smiled and rubbed her head, just like he did when he was a child.

"Grandpa is glad to be able to take care of you again."
