Chapter 141 Can you hear what Xiaojiu is thinking?
"Don't worry, Xiaojiu, everything is the opposite on the battlefield." Lu Heng smiled and touched her head.
After hearing Lu Li's inner voice, he knew what was going on.
My sister couldn’t say that she got to know the news through the gossip system, she could only say that she dreamed about it.
I’m afraid my father won’t believe me, so I have no choice but to come to him first.
"No, really!" Lu Li became anxious when he heard this.
"Okay, then your royal brother will accompany you to find your father, okay?" Lu Heng soothed.
"You also have to say that you had a dream!" Lu Li emphasized.
[If my third brother and I both dreamed about this, Father would probably take it seriously, right? ]
Lu Heng knew what she was planning and agreed.
The two of them went to find their father together.
"Father, I had a nightmare." Lu Li entered Yu's study and stretched out her hand for Lu Yanshi to hug her.
"Hey, what's wrong? Don't be afraid, father is here. Nothing can hurt our Xiaojiu." Lu Yanshi hugged her and coaxed her gently.
Lu Li gave Lu Heng a look.
【Hurry up and tell me, Third Brother! 】
Lu Heng said helplessly: "Father, Xiaojiu had a nightmare. She dreamed that someone came to support Xichang and caused Concubine Shu to be injured."
As soon as Lu Yanshi heard this, he knew that this must be his daughter's idea.
She intended to make him believe it by saying it was a dream.
Lu Heng continued, "I had the same dream. Father, this might be a warning from God. Why don't we send more troops to reinforce Concubine Shu."
"It's true, father, it's true!" Lu Li was afraid that he wouldn't believe it, so she stressed it desperately.
Lu Yanshi saw through what these two kids were planning.
He then went down the hill and opened the small notebook in front of him, saying in amazement: "Wow, our Xiaojiu is really amazing. I received a secret report from a spy today, which just happened to say that there was an unusual movement in southern Xinjiang, and it seemed that troops were going to be sent to reinforce Xichang."
Cao Dehai, who was standing behind, took a quick glance at it. Wasn't it written on it the evidence against the ministers that the emperor had recorded on a daily basis? How did it become a secret report from a spy?
Lu Li couldn't understand what was written on it at all, but looking at the densely packed words on it, she thought what Lu Yanshi said was true.
"Yeah! That's it!" She nodded heavily.
Lu Yanshi held back his laughter.
See, he said that children should learn to read early, otherwise they will be deceived.
"Xiaojiu is really the lucky star of our Great Xia. If you dream about anything again in the future, you must tell father." Lu Yanshi kissed Lu Li on the cheek.
"Great!" Lu Li was very happy to see that his father believed what he said.
This way, whenever she has any news to tell her father in the future, she can just say it was what she dreamed about.
Lu Heng, who was standing below, secretly complained: What? It's obvious that he believed it only after listening to the voice of the Ninth Princess. Father is really good at fooling people.
Now that the important news had been conveyed, Lu Heng felt relieved.
"Father, I will take my ninth sister with me and leave now."
"Cao Dehai, please send the Ninth Princess back to Weiyang Palace first. I want to test the Third Prince's knowledge." Lu Yanshi glanced at Lu Heng.
Lu Heng suddenly became nervous and began to recall what he had learned recently.
"Come here." Lu Yanshi picked up the pen and wrote a line on the blank paper.
Lu Heng leaned over to take a look and his face changed color.
There was a line of words written on it:
【Can you hear what Xiaojiu is thinking? 】
When Lu Yanshi saw his changed expression, he still didn't understand something.
This child can also hear Xiaojiu's thoughts!
"Father, what does this mean?" Lu Heng remembered his mother's instructions and tried to save the situation.
"Don't say it, write it down." Lu Yanshi handed him the pen.
If I say it directly, what if Xiaojiu suddenly feels like checking what they are talking about through the "eating melon" system?
Wouldn't it be exposed that they could hear Xiaojiu's thoughts?
It is better to communicate by writing.
"Tell the truth." Lu Yanshi reminded.
Lu Heng paused holding the pen, thought for a moment, and finally told the truth.
【I can hear you.】
Lu Yanshi gritted his teeth: [When can I hear it? ]
It's a pity that he thought he was the prince charming, the only one who could hear Xiaojiu's heart.
Lu Heng answered honestly: [When I first met my sister.]
Lu Yanshi's hand holding the pen clenched tightly, because he was too excited, the words he wrote became a little sloppy: [Who else can hear? ]
Lu Heng wrote down two words with a guilty conscience: [Mother.]
Lu Yanshi took a deep breath and continued writing: [Anything else?]
"No more." Lu Heng shook his head guiltily.
If he mentioned the fifth and sixth princesses, he would really become a traitor.
By then, he will never be able to eat the food cooked by the chief steward of the Yu kitchen again in his life.
"You can leave now." Lu Yanshi crumpled up the papers and threw them on the ground.
Thanks to him for thinking he was the most special, but it turned out that Lu Heng and the Queen could hear Xiaojiu's thoughts.
If Lu Heng and Xiao Jiu had not cooperated so well this time, and if Xiao Jiu had not urged him to speak, he would have spoken, he would not have suspected Lu Heng.
"Yes." After receiving the order, Lu Heng felt relieved and ran away immediately.
Cao Dehai sent the Ninth Princess back to Weiyang Palace. When he came back, he was surprised to see paper balls all over the floor.
Who made the emperor angry?
Lu Yanshi became angrier and angrier as he thought about it, and decided to go find the empress to get to the bottom of things.
He deliberately chose the time when Lu Li was asleep.
Lu Yanshi sneered and stared at Xia Shuyi: "The Queen has kept it a secret from me for so long."
Xia Shuyi had already learned about this from her son, so she had prepared herself to be questioned early on.
She said aggrievedly: "I wanted to tell you before, but this matter is too shocking. I tried to test you and found that you seemed unable to hear me, so how could I dare to tell you."
When she said this, Lu Yanshi remembered.
The Queen seemed to have used the storybook as an excuse to test him before. He was afraid that the Queen would have wild thoughts, so he scolded her and told her to read less storybooks.
Lu Yanshi suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
"Okay, this is a secret. You are not allowed to tell anyone and you are not allowed to let Xiaojiu know about it." Lu Yanshi stared at her and instructed.
Xia Shuyi nodded solemnly and assured, "Your Majesty, rest assured. I am very careful about my words. I have not leaked this matter to anyone so far."
"Tell me, why are we the only three who can hear Xiaojiu's inner voice?" Lu Yanshi asked the question that was in his heart.
"Maybe it's because Xiaojiu and I are blood relatives?" Xia Shuyi gave the most reasonable explanation.
Otherwise she couldn't figure out why.
Lu Yanshi nodded.
He is Xiaojiu's biological father, the Queen is Xiaojiu's biological mother, and the Third Brother is Xiaojiu's biological brother.
From this perspective, it seems that the Queen's inference makes some sense.
"That makes sense." Lu Yanshi agreed with the Queen's opinion.
But he was an emperor after all, and he was very suspicious, so he did not completely believe this statement.
The next day, he found Lu Xuanyi.
