Dafeng's Night Squad

364 The truth (1)

As expected, a man that the Empress valued so much and was willing to be banished to the cold Palace to protect, as a daughter, Huai Qing would not have no clue.

If I’m Sherlock Holmes, then you’re Watson ... “Who is it?” Xu Qi ‘an nodded and asked.

Huaiqing’s originally cold face became even more expressionless. His tone was also indifferent and distant as he spat out two words,”Uncle.”

The words ” Imperial uncle ” were like the key to solving a puzzle. Xu Qi ‘an was suddenly enlightened. All the clues were linked together, and he finally understood the context of Consort Fu’s case.

“This Imperial uncle must be the Empress’s blood brother.” Xu Qi ‘an clicked his tongue.

Only a biological brother from the same father and mother could make the Empress be willing to bear the crime to protect him.

Princess huaiqing nodded slightly. Imperial uncle is Imperial mother’s younger brother. He’s a hedonistic son who indulges in his voice and looks. He’s ignorant and incompetent, indulging in beauty. The maids of Feng Qi Palace all hate him because every time he goes to visit mother, he always secretly touches them.”

From his words, it seemed that he was extremely disgusted and disdainful of his uncle.

“At this moment, bengong just remembered some things. In the past, the Imperial uncle would occasionally visit his mother in the palace, but a few years ago, he suddenly stopped coming. Now that I’ve seen it again, I finally understand what’s going on. ”

In addition to the imperial family, the family members of the Empress, Imperial Noble Consort, and Noble consort could also enter the palace to visit them, as long as they reported to the palace in advance.

Xu Qi ‘an squatted on the ground and put his hands into the water bucket. He looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle and mumbled, ”

“The palace maid Huang xiaorou was raped by the Imperial brother-in-law and became pregnant. So, she committed suicide, but the people the Empress had arranged to stay by her side discovered her in time and saved her ... No, it’s not like that.”

Huaiqing, on the other hand, lowered his head to look at his toes and said softly, “”Didn’t you say that she had given birth before? what about a miscarriage? will a miscarriage also ... The opening of the womb was closed?

it’s impossible to hide the palace maid’s pregnancy, but since Huang xiaorou has managed to survive until now, it means that the child has not been born.

yes, ” Xu Qi ‘an said. you’ll have stretch marks in three or four months. After the miscarriage, the fetal opening will close. I’m more inclined to the Empress aborting the child because the child can’t be born, or else Imperial uncle would be finished.”

so, ” Huai Qing nodded, ” the palace maid Huang xiaorou harbored a grudge and joined forces with the person behind the scenes. On the surface, she framed the Crown Prince, but in reality, she was secretly targeting the Empress and Duke of Wei? ”

“If that’s the case, then Huang xiaorou’s hatred for the Empress must have seeped into her bones. Well, that’s right, the hatred of killing her son. But I don’t think it’s that simple.”

“What do you want to ask?”

“Your Highness is indeed smart ... Why didn’t the Empress kill Huang xiaorou? that way, everything would be over.”

“Mother is indeed soft-hearted.” Huaiqing shook his head regretfully. Looking at her expression, she seemed to be sad for her misfortune and angry at her for not striving.

It seemed that the Empress was a soft-hearted woman ... If it were huaiqing, he would probably have killed Huang xiaorou and eliminated her ... Huaiqing is a woman who can accomplish great things. I can confirm that. Xu Qi ‘an raised her hand to touch her chin, but stopped halfway. She put her hand back into the bucket and said, ”

“Then the case is clear. The Empress must also be paying attention to Consort Fu’s case. When she found out that the person who killed Consort Fu was Huang xiaorou, she knew that the person behind the scenes was planning to use the Imperial uncle to plot against her.

“This is an open scheme. Either you sacrifice your Imperial uncle or you sacrifice yourself. But then again, Her Majesty the Empress is really a demon that supports her younger brother.”

Huaiqing frowned,”help ...” What do you mean by that?”

“For a good-for-nothing younger brother, she would rather be thrown into the cold Palace. Once she’s crippled, the fourth prince will no longer be the legitimate son, and he’ll truly have no fate with the throne.”

Huaiqing glanced at him and laughed,”What’s the difference between having concubines in the harem and living in the cold Palace?”

“That’s true,” Xu Qi ‘an met Huai Qing’s gaze. This was the first time the princess had expressed her dissatisfaction with Emperor yuanjing in front of him.

“Mother has never paid attention to the matters of the inner palace and she is not sentient to the position of Empress. Using the position of Empress to exchange for Imperial uncle’s life, she must be very willing. However, fourth Imperial brother will definitely be resentful.”

“So that’s why Your Highness sent the fourth prince away?”

“How do you explain the yellow silk?” huaiqing nodded and asked.

the spring of the 31st year of yuanjing should be the time when the palace maid, Huang xiaorou, lost her virginity ... No, something was strange. Huang xiaorou had committed suicide four years ago, and the 31st year of yuanjing was five years ago. The thirty-seventh year of yuanjing has just begun, so let’s not count for now.” Xu Qi ‘an suddenly frowned.

Princess huaiqing understood Xu Qi ‘an’s meaning and said in a sweet voice,”According to the time, she committed suicide after a forced miscarriage. After mother aborted the child in Huang xiaorou’s womb, she arranged for he ‘er to take care of her. ”

“That’s indeed the case, and it matches the results of our investigation. However, doesn’t Your Highness find it strange? you just said that pregnancy and childbirth can’t be hidden in the harem. Huang xiaorou is just a Palace maid. Why would she dare to do this? unless she has a strong backing and is fearless.”

“It can’t be father.” Huaiqing shook his head.

Xu Qi ‘an agreed with this.

With Emperor Yuan jing’s desire for longevity and his obsession with cultivation, it was absolutely impossible for him to sleep with a Palace maid.

“Let’s go and ask this Imperial brother-in-law. There’s no point in blindly guessing here.”

Princess huaiqing agreed with Xu Qi ‘an’s suggestion. She seemed to have the same intention.

The two of them immediately left the ice cellar and saw the young eunuch’s figure in the distance. He had not left yet.

This little eunuch was quite honest ... Xu Qi ‘an walked over and said, ” Princess huaiqing and I will be going out of the palace. You should go and rest first. Don’t be in a hurry to report today’s matter to His Majesty.
