Nightwatcher Chapter 22: The truth

Chapter 253 The Truth

Sure enough, for a man who can make the queen take so seriously, and is willing to be beaten into the cold palace to protect him, Huaiqing, as a daughter, won't have a clue.

If I were Holmes, you would be Watson in Huaiqing... Xu Qi'an nodded and asked: "Who is it?"

Huaiqing's already cold face, increasingly expressionless, and his tone indifferent and alienated, he uttered two words: "Uncle Guo."

The two words "Uncle Guo" seemed to be the key to solving the riddle, allowing Xu Qi'an to suddenly understand, through all the clues, and finally clarified the context of the Fufei case.

"This uncle is the younger brother or elder brother of the queen's empress, right." Xu Qi'an tut.

Only a brother of the same father and mother can the queen prefer to bear the charge and protect him.

Princess Huaiqing nodded slightly, "Uncle Guo is the younger brother of the mother's empress, a sensual and sensual dude, unlearned, indulging in beauty. The maids of Fengqi Palace hate him because every time he goes there After visiting my mother, I always act on them in private."

In the words, it seems that he is extremely disgusted and disgusted with that uncle.

"At this time, my palace remembered something. Uncle Guo would occasionally visit the palace to visit his mother and queen, but a few years ago, he suddenly stopped coming. Now I look at it again and I understand what is going on."

In addition to the clan family, the family of the queen, imperial concubine, and imperial concubine can also visit them in the palace, just report to the palace in advance.

Xu Qi'an squatted on the ground, dipped his hands into the bucket, looked at the sky at a 45-degree angle, and muttered:

"Huang Xiaorou, the court lady, was raped by the country's uncle and became pregnant. So she couldn't think about committing suicide, but the people arranged by the queen found out in time and saved her...No, it's not like that."

On the contrary, Huaiqing looked down at her toes and said softly: "Didn't you say that she had a baby? What about miscarriage? Is it possible that miscarriage will also... close the fetal mouth?

"The maid's pregnancy cannot be kept secret, but since Huang Xiaorou has survived until now, it means that the child was not born."

Xu Qi'an said: "Stretch marks will appear in three or four months, and the uterine orifice will be closed after a miscarriage. I prefer the queen to abort the child because the child cannot be born, otherwise the uncle will be over. "

Huai Qing nodded: "So, Huang Xiaorou, the maid of the palace, held a grudge, and joined hands with the people behind the scenes to form the crown prince, but actually alluded to the queen and Wei Gong?"

"If this is the case, then Huang Xiaorou hates the queen empress, um, that's right, killing her son. But I always think it's not that simple."

"What do you want to ask?"

"His Royal Highness is really smart...Why didn't the empress kill Huang Xiaorou? This is a hundred."

"The queen is really kind." Huaiqing shook her head regretfully, looking at her expression, it seemed that she was mourning her misfortune and angering her.

In this way, the queen seems to be a soft-hearted woman... If you change to Huaiqing, it is estimated that Huang Xiaorou was killed at that time, and you will never suffer from future problems... Huaiqing is a great thing. Woman, I can confirm this. Xu Qi'an raised his hand to touch his chin, halfway up and then paused, while re-stretching his hand into the bucket, he said:

"The case is clear. The queen must be paying attention to the Fufei case. When she discovered that the murderer was Huang Xiaorou, the official asked her to question her that day. She knew that the people behind the scenes planned to use the uncle to calculate her. .

"This is a conspiracy. Either sacrifice the uncle of the country or sacrifice yourself. However, having said that, the empress is really a demon to help her brother."

Huaiqing frowned: "Help...what's the answer to this."

"For an ineffective brother, I would rather be beaten into the cold palace. Once she is abolished, the fourth prince will not be a direct son, and she will truly miss the throne."

Huai Qing glanced at him and chuckled: "In the harem, what is the difference between the concubines and the cold palace?"

"That's true." Xu Qi'an greeted Huaiqing's gaze. This was the first time that His Royal Highness had expressed dissatisfaction with Emperor Yuan Jing in front of him.

"The queen mother never paid attention to the affairs of the harem. She is not attached to the position of the queen. She must be willing to change the life of her uncle. However, the four emperors must be resentful."

"That's why your Royal Highness will dismiss the Four Princes?"

Huaiqing nodded and asked: "How to explain the yellow silk material."

"The spring of the 31st year of Yuanjing should be the time when Huang Xiaorou, the lady of the court, lost her life...No, there is something very strange. Huang Xiaorou committed suicide four years ago, and the 31st year of Yuanjing was five years ago. Yuanjing's 37th year has just begun, let's not count it." Xu Qi'an frowned suddenly.

Princess Huaiqing understood what Xu Qi'an meant, and said in a pleasant voice: "According to time, she committed suicide after being forced to abort. After the mother killed Huang Xiaorou's fetus in her abdomen, he arranged for He'er to take care of her."

"It's true, it can correspond to the results of our investigation, but doesn't your Highness feel strange? You said just now that you can't hide a child during pregnancy in the harem. Huang Xiaorou, a maid, why dare to do this? Unless she is confident."

"It cannot be the father." Huai Qing shook his head.

Xu Qi'an agreed with this.

Given Yuanjing Emperor's desire for longevity and his dedication to monasticism, it is absolutely impossible for a court lady to be lucky.

"Let's ask this uncle of the country, it's meaningless to just guess here."

Xu Qi'an's proposal was approved by Princess Huaiqing, and she seemed to have this intention.

The two immediately left the ice cellar and saw the figure of the **** from a distance. He had not left yet.

This little **** is a bit sincere...Xu Qi'an walked over and said, "I will go to the palace with Duke Huaiqing. You should go to rest first. Don't rush to report to your Majesty about what happened today. "

The little **** looked at him and stopped talking.

"Just say if you have something to say, don't hesitate."

"Master Xu, the minion is a little scared."

Don't be afraid, I'll be lighter... Xu Qi'an laughed and said: "Don't worry, you shouldn't know, I won't let you know. You just be obedient."

The little **** only breathed a sigh of relief: "With your words, the minion is at ease."

Xu Qi'an originally thought that he could ride a carriage with Huaiqing, but he didn't expect that Huaiqing, who was ungodly, gave him a horse.

Sitting on the horseback, following the princess's carriage towards the uncle's house, Xu Qi'an couldn't help thinking of his beloved little mare.

When he was assassinated yesterday, he drove the little mare away. After killing the three assassins, he went to the Yamen to recover from his injuries. He still doesn't know where the little mare is.

However, before he entered the palace this morning, he ordered his colleagues to find the little mare.

The window opens, Huaiqing sticks out his face, with flawless features, beautiful nose, bright red lips, and exquisite corners. The beautiful eyes are like a puddle of autumn water, crystal clear.

"Even if the mother's queen did commit the crime for the uncle, the person behind the scenes still did not find out." She sighed.

Xu Qi'an didn't answer, but instead asked: "What I don't even understand is why the people behind the scenes didn't attack the queen until now?"

The two are speechless.

........

The National Uncle's Mansion is in the imperial city. Xu Qi'an and the eldest princess arrived at the National Uncle's Mansion and asked the guards, only to know that the National Uncle was not in the imperial city, but the old house in the inner city.

"Go and ask, when did Uncle Guo move to the old house?" Huaiqing opened the window of the car and ordered the accompanying guard.

After the guard asked, he replied: "This morning."

This morning? Emperor Yuan Jing was the one who proposed the abolition during the court meeting this morning... Xu Qi'an subconsciously looked at Huaiqing and found that his elder wife was also watching him.

"Go to the Shangguan Old House." Princess Huaiqing said coldly.

The luxurious carriage made of golden nanmu slowly drove out of the imperial city, and it took more than half an hour to reach the Shangguan family's ancestral home.

Unexpectedly, the Shangguan’s old house was just a three-entry compound, and its scale was not much stronger than that of the mansion Xu Qi’an bought. Of course, in terms of the degree of sophistication and luxury, Xu Mansion must be haunted.

Moreover, there are many guards here.

Xu Qi'an took advantage of the carriage to stop slowly, took out a piece of Wang Qi technique paper prepared on the road from his arms, and ignited it with a gas engine.

The carriage stopped outside the Shangguan’s mansion. Huaiqing stepped on the pony and drove it down and went straight into the mansion. The guards at the door dared not stop.

On the way, Huaiqing and Xu Qi'an talked about the family history of the Shangguan clan. The Shangguan clan was not a big clan with a bell, but his maternal grandfather Shangguan Qingguan Baihubu Zuo Shilang and Dongge scholar.

But all this happened after Empress Shangguan entered Fengqi Palace.

Before that, Shangguan’s family was just a small family. Huaiqing’s grandfather, Shangguanqing, was only the leader of Hubu Du, and he was the sixth grade.

"Wei's family and Shangguan's family are family acquaintances. When Wei Gong was a teenager, he was from a poor family and once studied in Shangguan's family. His grandfather was half of his mentor." Princess Huaiqing said.

Xu Qi'an nodded, he also only learned about the origin of Wei Yuan and the queen today.

"Then Wei Gong..." he paused, still asking questions: "How did you enter the palace?"

Princess Huaiqing shook her head.

Passing through the front yard, the sound of silk and bamboo wind music came.

Far away, they saw the door of the back hall open, and seven or eight dancers wearing tulle danced gracefully, and the musicians played a magnificent sound.

Xu Qi'an's eyes widened. To tell the truth, he is used to such scenes in Jiaofang, but even the dancers in Jiaofang Division are not as bold as those women in the hall.

The women didn't wear apron or trousers. They only wore a thin layer of gauze. They showed off their private parts along with the dance, coquettishly.

In the hall, sitting in the main seat is a white-skinned, good-looking middle-aged man with a two-handed moustache, holding a beauty in his left hand and a beauty in his right hand.

Left hand fermented bean curd, right hand teasing, squinting to admire the dancing dancers.

Several diners sat on both sides, so happy.

Xu Qi'an has a better understanding of the absurdity of the uncle of the country, and his sister is about to be abolished. He is still indulging in sensuality here. What is even more absurd is that the queen is still behind him.

I was trembling and cold, when can the helpers stand up?

The eldest princess stopped outside the hall, turned her head, and glanced at Xu Qi'an.

Xu Qi'an, who knows his mind, took off his saber, walked to the door, knocked on the door frame with the scabbard, and shouted: "While rounds, men squat to the left, women squat to the right, hold their heads, and take out their ID cards. ."

The people who were addicted to their sensuality were taken aback, and then they noticed Xu Qi'an and Princess Huaiqing standing outside.

The dancers stopped dancing, and the musicians stopped playing. The uncle Guo, who had two moustaches, was taken aback first, then frowned.

Huaiqing crossed the threshold, entered the hall, and said coldly: "Everyone should exit the lobby and must not approach this place for a hundred steps. Violators will be killed without pardon."

Xu Qi'an said loudly: "Yes!"

The thumb flicked the handle of the knife, and the sabre was half an inch out of its sheath. He looked around the people in the hall and shouted: "Don't get out of here."

The musicians, dancers, and diners disappeared.

"Don't walk, don't walk..."

Uncle Guo shouted, but couldn't stop the dispersing crowd, stomped angrily, pointed at Xu Qi'an and yelled: "Where are you a dog slave, come here, come here..."

Xu Qianxin said that it's no wonder Huaiqing hates this uncle so much, no wonder she suspects the uncle of the country for the first time.

This is a 24K pure dude.

I yelled a few times. Seeing that there was no one outside to support me, the uncle Guo stopped calling. He squinted and looked at Princess Huaiqing: "Huaiqing, don't you stay in the palace. What are you doing here at your uncle's house."

"Does the uncle of the country know what happened after the abolition of the father and the queen?"

Huaiqing's voice is like the wind and snow in the middle of winter, with a deep chill, "After the father proposed abolition this morning, the uncle of the country, as the mother and younger brother, is still in the mood to drink and have fun at the house."

"Naturally knows." Uncle Guo suddenly became irritated, "but what can I do? I am not Wei Yuan. After I say not to let it go, your majesty will agree?"

"Does the uncle of the country know the reason for the abolition of the father and the queen?" the princess asked.

"Isn't it because my sister constructed the East Palace in order to let the four princes be the princes." Uncle Guo said loudly. After speaking, he "sneered" and seemed to disdain the Queen's actions.

Xu Qi'an looked at Huaiqing cautiously, she was calm from beginning to end, or indifferent.

He was about to question Huang Xiaorou, when he saw Huaiqing wave his hand to stop him, the princess sneered: "Uncle Guo, this palace is ordered by the emperor to arrest you."

Uncle Guo was taken aback, "Get me? Why?"

Huaiqing finally showed a sneer, "With the court lady Huang Xiaorou."

Hearing that, if Guojiu was struck by lightning, his whole body was shocked. There was a look of fear in his eyes, and he insisted: "What Huang Xiaorou, Huaiqing, what are you talking about, what are you talking about? Nonsense!!!"

He actually yelled at Princess Huaiqing.

"You won't cry if you don't see the coffin." Huaiqing stretched out his hand, and Xu Qi'an passed the dim yellow silk material over.

She took it and slammed it on the face of Uncle Guo, "In the spring of the 31st year of Yuanjing, what you have done to Huang Xiaorou, you know best in your heart."

Uncle Guo was stunned.

The yellow silk material slipped from his face, as if it had also taken away the last bit of blood from him, and the pupils of the country's uncle were distraught and looked terrified.

"Who told you, who told you about Huang Xiaorou." Uncle Guo muttered.

"Naturally, it is the empress empress." Xu Qi'an said in cooperation.

"Fart!"

Uncle Guo's reaction was surprisingly big, and blood slowly poured onto his face, unable to distinguish whether it was caused by excitement or anger, he said loudly:

"I am the only son of the Shangguan family. How could she betray me, how dare she betray me, and what kind of face she will have to see her father in the future, you should lie to me."

Xu Qi'an said: "Because Huang Xiaorou was involved in the Fufei case, her past was found out, and the queen had no choice but to confess. In the spring of the thirty-first year of Yuanjing, you defiled Huang Xiaorou in the palace."

He was pretty sure.

"Impossible, Huang Xiaorou is already dead, the queen promised that I would kill her." Uncle Guo was shocked.

The fact is that the queen did not kill her mouth, she just killed the fetus in Huang Xiaorou's belly... Huaiqing was right, the queen was too soft... Xu Qi'an looked sideways. Princess Eye.

Huaiqing still has no expression, and said indifferently: "Tell me truthfully. It's better to tell this palace than to confess in the dungeon. Or, the uncle wants to try to beat the punishment in the dungeon?"

Uncle Guo sat down depressed.

"Yes, Huang Xiaorou did have an affair with me, but she was willing. Because she thought I was your majesty.

"I like beauty, but I am tired of the women in the brothel and Jiaofang Division. The concubine Ji in the mansion has long lost its freshness to me. Gradually, I found that the women in the palace are more than the women outside. It fascinates me.

"I blame my sister for being bad. There are so many court ladies in her Fengqi Palace, but she won't let me touch them. Your Majesty has been obsessed with monasticism and hasn't been close to women for many years. What happened to me having one or two court ladies?

She is the lord of the harem, as long as she agrees, who can stop it? I don't want your majesty's concubine. That day, I went to visit the queen in Fengqi Palace, and I saw a lady who was so beautiful and lovely. I thought it was a new lady from Fengqi Palace, so I stepped forward.

"Oh, she thought I was your majesty, she blushed and didn't dare to refuse, let me do it."

Huang Xiaorou entered the palace in the 28th year of Yuanjing. At that time, his Majesty was already obsessed with cultivating and stopped going to the harem...a little palace lady, she never saw what Emperor Yuanjing looked like. ......Xu Qi'an thought to himself, the effect of Wang Qi technique did not dissipate, he knew that Uncle Guo did not lie.

"I took her into the wing room when there was no one around. Afterwards, she was full of joy, thinking that she had served His Majesty and that she was a unique woman who could break the precepts. Don’t say it. It’s her, from the concubine to the maid in the harem, who has never imagined that he can be different and be fortunate by your majesty."

Pretending to be an emperor and a court lady...it’s no wonder that the queen wants to protect you, and these ten lives are not enough...

Uncle Guo swallowed, "Later, I learned the taste of the marrow, and often met with Huang Xiaorou in the name of visiting the queen. I experienced a different feeling in her, which is different from other women. But Wan Wan Never thought that she was pregnant...

"At that time, I panicked and told the queen about the matter. She scolded me and ordered me not to step into the harem again. She promised me to kill Huang Xiaorou and kill me and clean up the mess for me." /

Xu Qian quietly said: "So Huang Xiaorou always thought that she was pregnant with a dragon species~IndoMTL.com~ So she hated the queen who forced her to abort. When she later learned that she was deceived, it turned out that the person who seduced her was not the emperor. , But you, the uncle of the country... But at that time the fetus was gone, and the matter was a foregone conclusion. She couldn't provoke the queen again, so she committed suicide in shame.

"But the queen is too kind and feels guilty for what you did, so she took a panacea from the imperial pharmacy and saved Huang Xiaorou's life. However, four years later, today, the disaster will be buried."

"This is all to blame. If she killed Huang Xiaorou in the first place, how would she be today." The uncle of the country was furious: "It was she who killed me, and I blame her!!"

"You lied!" Xu Qi'an interrupted him suddenly, and said sharply: "If it's just Huang Xiaorou, then the queen doesn't have to commit the crime for you. Huang Xiaorou is already dead and there is no evidence of death. The queen can't admit it.

"Since she has recognized it, it means that besides Huang Xiaorou, you have another handle in the hands of others."
