The mother of the Hou family eavesdropped on my inner thoughts and went crazy, I won by sucking milk

Jiang Wanqing took a deep breath and opened his mouth: "So, father already knew that the emperor was suspicious of us? You knew to pretend you didn't know? But why did you know that Eunuch Fang Su was Dongfang Su?"

Listen to Jiang Wanqing asking this question.

The Duke of Zhenguo had a lot of thoughts in his mind, as if he was lost in memories.

After a long pause, he finally started to explain: "In fact, I knew long ago that the emperor was suspicious of us. I thought that if I did my duty as a subject, he would be able to dispel these concerns."

After a pause, the Duke of Zhenguo continued, "As for Dongfang Su... Actually, after I pushed the emperor to that position, I went around to quell rebellions. After I calmed down, I always felt that something was wrong.

Until... you still remember, when you were a child, you helped a little beggar. When my deputy general found you, he had seen that beggar. He said that the beggar looked very similar to Queen Dongfang. I started to pay attention to him and secretly followed the clues. I found out that there might be other inside stories behind what happened back then. Later, I secretly investigated for a long time before I figured out some things.

However, at that time, the current emperor had already firmly sat on the throne and possessed real power, and the war had just ended. If I rebelled, the world would surely be plunged into dire straits again, and the Jiang family army would not be able to withstand the turmoil. I knew that was not the best time to start a rebellion.

Therefore, I felt very guilty. They were all my brothers, but my brother killed his brother, and now he pointed the sword at me. No, after he killed the Dongfang family, he was no longer my brother, but I could not avenge the Dongfang family.

So, when I learned that Dongfang Su entered the palace to become a eunuch and was heading towards the path of a eunuch, I mobilized all my secret connections, including lobbying officials who supported Dongfang, to help him and support him, until he became the current Supervisor of the East Factory.

This is the last thing I can do for him. I am sorry to Dongfang. If I had known what His Majesty did earlier, I would never have recommended him to be His Majesty."

At the end, the Duke of Zhenguo looked guilty and regretful.

Jiang Wanqing took a deep breath and said, "So, it was you who was secretly helping Dongfang Su?"

With tears in his eyes, the Duke of Zhenguo nodded heavily.

But he smiled bitterly: "But I didn't expect that you would secretly cooperate with him. I think he can redress the grievances of the Dongfang family more quickly."

Jiang Wanqing pursed her lips and said, "Now that the Crown Prince and Prince Cheng'an are both dead, it's time for their forces in the court to realign themselves. Dongfang Su does not intend to rebel directly, and is preparing to take advantage of His Majesty's illness to gradually annex the Crown Prince and Prince Cheng'an's forces. After all, the person His Majesty trusts the most now is Dongfang Su.

Dongfang Su had also experienced the bloodbath in the palace that year. He did not want to be a tyrant like the current emperor. He wanted to use the most gentle way to take back the kingdom that belonged to the Dongfang family. "

Upon hearing this, the Duke of Zhenguo heaved a sigh of relief: "He looks a lot like his father."

Jiang Wanqing's eyes flickered: "It's just that I don't know if my father has ever paid attention to a problem."

The Duke of Zhenguo turned his head to look at Jiang Wanqing and asked, "What's the problem?"

Jiang Wanqing replied: "Now, most of the military power is in the hands of our Zhenguogong, and my eldest brother also has a lot of influence in the court. Our family is involved in both civil and military officials.

If Dongfang Su ascends to that position someday, aren't you afraid that he will be suspicious of us? After all, every emperor has one thing in common, which is that they are suspicious. "

After Jiang Wanqing mentioned this, the Duke of Zhenguo looked embarrassed.

Jiang Wanqing laughed out loud: "Father, actually, I know a way to solve this problem very well. I just hope that you won't scold me then."

When the Duke of Zhenguo heard this, he immediately became interested: "What do you have in mind?"

"It's a secret!"

Jiang Wanqing finally kept the secret.

After having a thorough heart-to-heart talk with the Duke of Zhenguo, he really let go of those worries.

Eat, drink, and spend time with your wife.

It looks like he is really retired.

Spring and autumn come,

Time passed year after year.

In the blink of an eye, Xiaoxiao is three years old.

"Daddy, lift it higher!"

Xiaoxiao stretched out her hand towards Dongfang Su, raised her head, and looked excited.

Dongfang Su actually dotes on Xiaoxiao.

He bent down and lifted Xiaoxiao up high.

Jiang Wanqing looked at the scene in front of her, sewing clothes with a faint smile on her lips.

Then he said, "Okay, don't lift the child so high, it's too dangerous."

When Dongfang Su heard this, he hugged Xiao Xiao in his arms.

Whispered: "Shh, mother won't let us play anymore, we will play secretly later."

Then, he walked up to Jiang Wanqing with a smile on his face.

He made a slight gesture and asked Dongfang Su to let him go down.

Xiaoxiao walked up to Jiang Wanqing and said in a baby voice, "Mom! Can you let Mammy take me to see my eldest uncle's younger brother? I want to play with my younger brother!"

When Jiang Wanqing heard this, she glanced at Nanny Su and Mo Yu who were not far away.

Then, he worriedly told Xiao Xiao: "You must follow Madam and the others, and don't run around."

"I know, mother!"

There was a smile in her little eyes.

I don’t know why, but as Xiaoxiao grew up, she seemed to remember less and less what happened in the past.

Jiang Wanqing felt that this was a good thing. At least, Xiaoxiao could grow up healthily like an ordinary child, and she would not have to worry so much at such a young age.

Nanny Su Mo Yu left with Xiao Xiao.

Dongfang Su stood behind Jiang Wanqing and looked at the clothes Jiang Wanqing was sewing.

There was some confusion in her eyes: "Is this clothing made for Xiao Xiao? Will it be too big? Why do I feel like it is made for a newborn baby?"

Jiang Wanqing smiled and looked up at Dongfang Su: "Yes, this is the clothes made for babies."

Dongfang Su was surprised: "Could it be that Jiang Lingyi has another child so soon?"

Jiang Wanqing's smile suddenly froze on her face.

"Haha!" Jiang Wanqing sneered: "Why can't it be your child!"

Before Dongfang Su had time to be puzzled, Jiang Wanqing got angry for no reason. When he heard what Jiang Wanqing said next, he suddenly became excited.

He slowly half-knelt in front of Jiang Wanqing.

Looking at Jiang Wanqing's belly, he reached out and stroked Jiang Wanqing's lower abdomen.

Her eyes suddenly became moist, and she was a little bit unbelievable. She opened her mouth and said, "You are talking about my child? Are you pregnant with my child?"
