Chapter 245 I never questioned you
The air was stagnant for a moment.
Wei Zhao's eyelids twitched.
That's what Yu Tingwan could say.
The charm was gone, and he laughed softly.
At Ying Fuyan's place, the fatigue from last night's talk about the current layout and strategy dissipated a little.
During the march, it was common to stay awake for three days. It's nothing to him.
"Wait for me."
This was said to Yu Tingwan.
"Oh."
Wei Zhao entered the house and looked for clothes.
When I came out, I also brought a pair of the girl's clean embroidered shoes.
Seeing her confused expression, Wei Zhao said warmly: "The hot spring floor is slippery and it's easy to get your shoes wet."
Understand, you should also bring your shoes, just in case you need them.
He took the girl's clothes into his arms.
Yu Tingwan didn't think it was anything.
Apart from pretending to be cowardly, Wei Zhao usually does things by himself, and he also takes care of Yu Tingwan's work.
The female envoy who came to lead the way was slightly surprised. However, she watched her nose and heart carefully, and after sending the two of them away, she prepared some food and left respectfully.
The hot pool is a large, live spring. After entering, the surroundings are surrounded by mist, not in the open air.
Yu Tingwan bent down and stirred the spring water with his hand.
It's hot.
Yu Tingwan ran to the somewhat worn stone table again.
There were two plates of pastries on top, and she picked one up and took a bite.
Um.
Not tasty.
Yu Tingwan was never a picky person, and Huiniang and Wei Zhaoyang had her mouth in their mouths these days, but she cherished the food and ate the piece in her hand with an expressionless face.
The girl picked up two more eggs, put them gently into the small bamboo cage on the side of the road, and boiled them in the hot spring.
When she does these things, there is always a line of sight following her.
Yu Tingwan raised his eyes and met Wei Zhao's eyes.
How come Yu Tingwan doesn’t understand him!
"I've cooked the eggs for you. We'll have one each later."
Yu Tingwan cleared his throat: "If I have a bite to eat, you will have a bite to eat."
"I can't leave you behind."
Wei Zhao:......
Did he come here to eat eggs?
It's warm here.
I kicked off my shoes and took off my soft socks, and I didn't feel cold even when I stepped on the bluestone.
Yu Tingwan's fingertips fell on the delicate plate buckle.
She moves quickly.
One, two...
wrong.
Yu Tingwan frowned and looked at Wei Zhao: "Why are you still looking at me?"
Wei Zhao did not feel embarrassed at all about being caught. He looked as usual and said meaningfully: "I am a man."
"I know."
Yu Tingwan frowned, not understanding why he emphasized this so much.
"I never questioned you."
Wei Zhao:......
No, you are quite questioning now.
Yu Tingwan didn't feel any shyness at all, and didn't even think Wei Zhao was in danger here. He took off his shirt and trousers before he stopped.
She was satisfied.
But when she turned around, she saw that Wei Zhao was neatly dressed, with no wrinkles at the hem.
It doesn’t look like you’re here for a hot spring!
Yu Tingwan frowned: "Why don't you take off your outer clothes? Does your husband want to get into the water like this?"
Although the season for wearing thick cotton-padded clothes has passed, the outer clothes worn during these days are not thin.
If it absorbs water, it will be difficult to move. It will be very clumsy.
She was very considerate: "Want to help?"
Wei Zhao raised his eyebrows and said in a light voice: "Okay."
It takes a little effort.
Besides, Yu Tingwan is a good wife.
She didn't feel embarrassed at all.
She had taken off Wei Zhao's clothes many times, so practice made perfect. The girl approached and was about to wrap her arms around his waist and take off his belt.
Wei Zhao: "Wait."
Yu Tingwan:? ? ?
Wei Zhao thought of something: "I'll go out."
If he hadn't walked calmly, Yu Tingwan would have suspected that Wei Zhao was running away.
Wei Zhao summoned Chi Yu, who was a hundred meters away.
From the entrance of the cave to Ying Fuyan's side, there are many secret guards in the dark.
There were none near the house where the girl slept yesterday, or here, which shows that Ying Fuyan acted thoughtfully.
Wei Zhao never lowered his voice deliberately, and there was nothing Yu Tingwan couldn't hear.
Wei Zhao: "It's been a while since you left Shangjing."
Chi Yu respectfully said: "General, my subordinates have taken care of themselves before coming down."
He is the deputy general of the Wei family army, and the general was just 'buried'. His disappearance will arouse suspicion.
No one in Beijing knew he was leaving.
Wei Zhao said calmly: "Go back early."
He handed over the note in his hand.
"Contact the accountant to allocate the money. You go there in person, and let them negotiate with Prince Ying's cronies over the rest."
Chi Yu agreed, opened the note and looked at the amount, his face turned bad.
Why so many! ! !
No wonder he was asked to make a trip.
After all, excluding Wei Jiajun's daily expenses, it is not easy to transfer a large amount of cash as soon as possible.
He took a deep breath: "Yes."
Chi Yu asked: "The general really wants Prince Yan to be his ally?"
Still have to be cautious.
Wei Zhao never concealed: "I want to help him rise to power."
Chi Yu was stunned.
Obviously, the general had no intention of doing this before he came.
But what the general does has his own reasons.
Didn't Wei Zhao know that the rebellion involved terrible things, and if he was not careful, he would fall into an abyss.
He acted cautiously and looked for Ying Fu Yan because it was the prince of Yan whose surname was Ying.
King Yan was the late emperor's favorite son.
However, the late emperor was seriously ill, so he appointed the third prince, who is now Emperor Yingqian, as his heir apparent.
In the past few years, he had been checking to see if there was anything fishy about it.
Unfortunately not.
The will is true.
It has never been altered.
But what if Ying Fuyan said in front of all the officials that the edict was false? Emperor Ying Qian was ambitious and feared that the matter would be exposed, and could not tolerate the threat of King Yan, so he killed him.
With some secret manipulation, sometimes the truth can become a lie, right?
He originally thought about other things and then planned slowly.
Until I met Ying Fuyan.
Wei Zhao: "When I saw him last night, I knew from his face that he was seriously ill. Not long after he sat down, I took his pulse."
He looked up at the deserted yard.
"Lifespan can be up to six years."
In the early years, Ying Fuyan was exiled and suffered a lot, and his body was exhausted.
People in Prince Yan's Mansion died one after another, but Ying Fuyan could survive. Is it really because Emperor Ying Qian couldn't bear it that he didn't kill them all?
Ying Fuyan is especially afraid of the cold.
If Wei Zhao guessed correctly, my uncle chose this place for him to settle down, for one reason it was secluded, and for another the hot springs.
There is a hot spring behind the house where Ying Fuyan lives.
Back then, his father asked him to practice martial arts in order to keep fit.
But...
I don't know what happened to him later.
Wei Zhao: "He was poisoned and his pulse was severed."
Even if you find a doctor.
But the root of the disease is still there.
Yesterday when I was pouring tea, my hands shook slightly.
On the surface, there seems to be nothing wrong with him, but his body and mind are completely destroyed to the breaking point.
King Yan did nothing, but what happened?
The ancestors of the Wei family assisted successive emperors, but what did they get in exchange?
The Wei family is full of loyal people. If the emperor wants to kill someone, it is as easy as squeezing an ant to death.
When Duke Shun died, Wei Zhao saw something fishy. The old officials in the court are like human beings, so they have no suspicion?
Wei Zhao knew early on how important it was to have power in his hands.
Even if you sit in a position below one person and above ten thousand people, if you want the minister to die, the minister will still have to die.
