Chapter 253: Chapter 253: Rejection"In order to show my "identity", I secretly took a piece of material from the Queen's palace..." At this point, the uncle took a look at the yellow silk cloth.
Xu Qian'an understood that this was how the yellow silk on Huang Xiaorou came from.
However, there should be many concubines in the palace who have this kind of material. It is difficult to use a piece of material as evidence... When Xu Qian'an thought of this, he suddenly heard Huai Qing say indifferently:
"Lord Xu can follow the clues based on the results of the autopsy to identify the uncle, not to mention the mastermind who already knew the inside story.
"If the Queen Mother does not recognize it, then there will naturally be evidence to help Lord Xu find the uncle. Moreover, with our uncle's iron will, he will confess everything after being in prison for one night."
Huaiqing's mouth drew a cold arc.
She was right. I was just thinking out of habit. Such a playboy probably had many handles. The crux of the problem was not how many handles he had, but the choice of the queen...
Although he was a hopeless person, he was the only brother after all. If Erlang bullied men and women all day long, and political enemies used him to attack me, should I save Erlang?
Xu Qian'an's mind flashed with Xu Xinnian and a group of followers, surrounding the decent women in the middle, and Xu Erlang greeted them with a lewd smile...
"The picture is so beautiful, it gave me goose bumps. Well, with Erlang's looks, he doesn't need to force himself, there are many decent women who want him..." Xu Qian'an muttered in his heart.
"I want to see the queen, I want to see the queen..." The uncle rushed to Huaiqing excitedly, like a child who made a mistake but wanted someone to cover for him:
"Your Majesty, if you want to depose the queen, then do it. Anyway, she doesn't love your majesty, and the position of queen is dispensable to her. But Huaiqing, you only have me as your uncle."
"Shut up!"
Huaiqing was rarely furious, and said sternly: "How can you slander the relationship between my father and mother?"
He is a real talent! Rather than being audacious, he is stupid. He only thinks about the beginning and the end, and always thinks that someone will clean up his mess... This is the same as a mentally handicapped hot-blooded teenager.
In my era, he was a giant baby, lacking the beating of society... Xu Qiyan clicked his tongue in his heart.
The most important thing is that it is indeed exciting to put a hat on the emperor, but the one who really dares to take action is the uncle of the emperor.
Whether the queen is deposed or the uncle of the emperor gets the punishment he deserves, it is the emperor's family affairs and has little to do with him.
So his mentality is very relaxed. At most, he feels sorry for Huaiqing, but with Huaiqing's disgust for the uncle of the emperor, I think even if the uncle of the emperor is beheaded, the first wife will not be sad.
Suddenly, Xu Qiyan had a flash of inspiration. The queen is the uncle of the emperor's sister and can't really do anything to him, but how can Duke Wei tolerate such a pig teammate?
Even if the two families are old friends, with the skills of Duke Wei, it is absolutely easy to crack down on a playboy and make him behave himself.
"Does Duke Wei know about this?" Xu Qiyan asked.
Hearing this, Huaiqing immediately looked at him, thinking. S~eaʀᴄh the Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"Wei Yuan?"
The uncle of the state, who was still panic-stricken and helpless a moment ago, suddenly became vicious and angry, sneering: "Yes, all this must be designed by Wei Yuan, it must be him.
"He killed my father, and now he wants to kill me. He is a ruthless person, he deserves to have no descendants."
Xu Qiyan's little head flashed a big question. Before entering the mansion, Huaiqing told him that the Wei family and the Shangguan family were old friends.
But from the attitude of the uncle of the state, this is not an old friendship, it's more like an old feud.
Thinking of this, Xu Qiyan immediately looked at Huaiqing, she frowned, it seems that she also didn't understand the inside story, and was also confused by the uncle of the state's words.
Xu Qi'an cleared his throat and asked, "What do you mean? Why did Wei Yuan want to harm you?"
The uncle looked at him and laughed coldly, "I dare to say it, do you dare to listen? You know what Wei Yuan did back then..."
"Pa!"
Halfway through his words, Xu Qi'an slapped him and interrupted him.
"Okay, I don't want to listen. I just want to take you back to the night watchman's office." When Xu Qi'an spoke, he turned his head and looked at Huai Qing, asking for her opinion.
Princess Huai Qing said, "Take him away."
"Huai Qing, Huai Qing, you can't do this to me... I am the only son of the Shangguan family, your mother will not agree with you doing this..."
The uncle was taken out of the house by Xu Qi'an. According to Huai Qing's instructions, he was handed over to several guards and escorted to the night watchman's office.
Xu Qi'an got on the horse. The princess who had just entered the carriage opened the window and said in a cold voice: "Lord Xu, why don't you ride in the same carriage with me?"
Oh, this is not good. How can a man and a woman ride in the same carriage? My sister, aunt and I have never ridden in a carriage... Xu Qi'an jumped off the horse quickly and got into the luxurious carriage made of golden nanmu.
The driver whipped the horse whip, and the two horses neighed and moved their hooves, swiftly and steadily leaving the street outside the Shangguan ancestral home and heading towards the imperial city.
In the carriage, there was a soft cashmere carpet, and at the innermost was a soft couch with a green Kuilong cotton cushion, two large chairs and a nailed coffee table.
The princess took out tea leaves from the wooden cabinet under the coffee table, lit the smokeless animal gold charcoal, and said while making tea: "What suggestions does Lord Xu
have?"
This is the ancient version of a nanny car... This carriage is estimated to be worth several thousand taels of silver... Xu Qi'an sighed in his heart, and after hearing this, he pondered:
"Your Highness must have an idea in mind."
Huaiqing nodded slowly: "I have never liked the uncle of the state. This matter started because of him, and it should end because of him."
The subtext is: I am going to hand over the uncle of the state.
"But even so, the queen is still guilty of harboring." Xu Qi'an frowned.
This can be big or small. If Emperor Yuan Jing is magnanimous and forgives, then a small punishment will be enough, and there is no need to depose the queen. On the contrary, Emperor Yuan Jing can use this as an excuse to depose the queen, and the crime is enough.
Based on Xu Qi'an's understanding of Emperor Yuan Jing, this emperor has a strong possessiveness and a strong desire for power. This kind of person is deep-minded, but he also cannot tolerate any sand in his eyes.
"Who said that the Queen Mother covered up for her? It was the uncle who knew about the
case of Concubine Fu and knew that his actions would soon be exposed, so he sent people to beg the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother thought of the blood relationship. Although she hated the uncle for doing such a thing to disturb the palace, she still chose to take the blame
for the uncle."
Princess Huaiqing's expression and tone were as steady as an old dog, and her face seemed to say "Yes, this is the truth."
This... Xu Qi'an sighed, "The princess is right."
Damn, if this woman is married home, it will be difficult to have an affair or cheat.
"I am very curious about the sentence that the uncle didn't finish. Why did Lord Xu interrupt?" The eldest princess said lightly.
Xu Qi'an calmly examined Huaiqing's beautiful facial features that seemed to have been carefully carved, "What did the uncle want to say just now? I don't know. If Your Highness wants to know, I will interrogate you later."
He interrupted the uncle on purpose just now because this matter involved Wei Yuan.
For Xu Qian'an, there are two things that he needs to avoid. The first is the secrets of the palace, which need not be explained.
The second is the secrets about Wei Yuan. Wei Yuan is his immediate superior and backer. If he wants to continue to survive in the capital, he must maintain a good relationship with Wei
Yuan.
Then, he should not know some of Wei Yuan's secrets.
Unless Wei Yuan tells him in person.
Huaiqing smiled and said, "Master Xu, you don't have to worry about the Queen's affairs.
Duke Wei will handle it. What you need to do is to find out the person behind the scenes. What
do you think, Master Xu?"
Xu Qian'an frowned, looking at the bottom of the purple clay pot licked by the blue-red
flames, and didn't speak for a long time.
.....
Night watchman's office, Haoqi Tower.
The black-clad official entered the tea room and said respectfully, "Duke Wei, Princess Huaiqing's guards have brought the uncle to the yamen, and the uncle is clamoring to see
you."
Wei Yuan looked down at the memorial, without raising his head, and said lightly, "There is no need to see a dying man. Go inform Nangong Jinluo to entertain the uncle."
After the black-clad official left, Wei Yuan closed the memorial, slowly walked to the observation deck, and looked at the palace with a deep and vicissitudes of life.
Back to the palace, Huaiqing went straight to Fengqi Palace.
Xu Qian'an planned to continue checking the people on the list, and he called the eunuch to
help deal with it.
Following the list and following the map, he hit a nail when he found the last person.
That person was a maid in Jingxiu Palace.
"Sister Lang'er is serving the imperial concubine, Lord Xu, please come later." The eunuch guarding the door stopped Xu Qian'an.
Xu Qi'an glanced at the sky and said with a pleasant face: "When should I come?"
The eunuch said indifferently: "Who knows, come again tomorrow."
"The case is urgent, how can it be delayed so much? I just want to understand it a little bit,
just a word."
Xu Qi'an took out a silver note of five taels of silver, "Please be lenient, eunuch."
The eunuch guarding the gate took the silver, turned his head and went in, and never came
back.
"Too much bullying!" The young eunuch was furious and said indignantly: "Master Xu, that dog thing is playing tricks on you."
"What will happen if I break in like this?" Xu Qi'an had no expression on his face.
"Oh, no." The young eunuch hurriedly stopped him and advised: "It is a serious crime to
break into the concubine's bedroom privately."
Xu Qi'an nodded and turned away.
The young eunuch trotted up and said, "Forget it. It's getting late. You should go back first."
"No, I want to ask His Majesty Lin'an for reimbursement."
