Chapter 1027 Killer
Fu Ciyi also used his inner strength to send a message: "Okay, got it."
Fu Jiang then said to Lu Wenfeng: "Master Lu, please go back to your original residence. Mr. Lu's residence will be kept by my Highness for you."
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Lu Wenfeng was very grateful.
After the three carriages traveled together for a while, the Lu family's carriage separated from the Fu family's carriage.
After walking for a while, Fu Ciyi ordered Fu Hu to send Fu Nanyao and Fu Beimo back to the palace.
Fu Beimo lifted the car curtain: "Brother and sister-in-law, let's go back to Beijing. Mother will definitely want to see you. After you return to the palace, you must go to the palace."
"Yeah." Fu Ciyi responded lightly.
The two cars separated again, one heading towards the palace and the other heading back to Prince Rui's Mansion.
Yan Funing saw Lengfeng riding a horse through the window, and asked Fu Ciyi in a low voice: "But what news has Lengfeng sent?"
"Well, let's go back home first." Fu Ciyi told Leng Feng, "Hurry and pick up people."
"Yes, Your Highness."
The cold wind caught the horse's belly and he galloped away.
After Fu Ciyi and Yan Funing returned to the palace, after tea time, the cold wind arrived.
When the servants came to report, Fu Ciyi and Yan Funing were in the room.
"Your Highness, Princess, Master Qiao is here."
"I understand, I will go over right now." Fu Ciyi said.
The servants retreat.
Yan Funing looked at Fu Ciyi with doubtful eyes: "Husband, Master Qiao is your uncle?"
My surname is Qiao, and my mother-in-law is also surnamed Qiao.
Mostly one family.
Fu Ciyi nodded: "It's my uncle. I haven't seen him since I left Beijing."
He took her hand: "Come with me, okay?"
"Okay." Yan Funing nodded obediently and asked softly, "Your uncle came to Beijing. Did you send someone to look for him, or did he come to Beijing under orders?"
Fu Ciyi didn't hide it from her: "I'll send someone to invite you."
"The Qiao family is also a well-known family in the capital. After mother and you left the capital, the Qiao family will probably be implicated. After I came to the capital, few people mentioned the Qiao family, which shows that the implication does exist."
Otherwise, a respectable family will definitely be mentioned from time to time.
At least when the mother-in-law was recognized by King Jin, someone would mention the Qiao family, but not at that time.
When the mother-in-law resumed her status as Princess Jin, the Qiao family did not arrive either.
Even though my mother-in-law was canonized as queen, she never heard anything about the Qiao family for a while.
You must know that the Qiao family is the mother family of the Queen. Why is no one mentioning such a family? The only possibility is that it was suppressed back then.
Fu Ciyi nodded and said softly: "It is true. My grandfather and grandmother were so angry that they died one after another. My uncle was also implicated and was demoted from Beijing, and it is said that he is not allowed to return to Beijing without an edict."
"But now that he is back, you sent someone to invite him again." Yan Funing couldn't help but worry, "My father's side will not be able to pass this level."
Now, if Uncle Qiao's family wants to come back, he only needs an edict from the new emperor.
But the father obviously didn't know that Fu Ciyi was deeply investigating what happened back then. Even if he knew it, he would not give the edict easily.
Fu Ciyi squeezed her hand: "Don't worry, I used the imperial edict from the emperor's uncle."
"Uncle Huang?"
"Yeah."
"Before Uncle Huang passed away, he called me over and chatted with me for a long time. He knew about the fire and my mother's poisoning. He knew that it was a knot in my heart and wanted to help me resolve it. I took the opportunity. I asked for an edict to allow my uncle to return to the capital, but because he wanted to investigate the truth of that year, it was natural that the less people knew about it, the better. Therefore, my uncle could only return secretly and could not report to the court for the time being." br>
"I understand." Yan Funing said warmly and softly, "Then let's go see uncle as soon as possible."
The couple quickly left the bedroom.
In the study room in the front yard, when the couple arrived, Qiao Chen was already waiting.
When they see each other, they are all startled.
The middle-aged man in front of me is very elegant, and his facial features are somewhat similar to those of his mother-in-law. He is probably a bit unshaven due to the fatigue of traveling and traveling.
Yan Funing knew that her uncle and nephew hadn't seen each other for many years, so they probably couldn't get to know each other quickly.
Please...you...collect 6...9...books...!
Then he said a blessing: "Uncle, okay!"
The girl in front of him called him uncle, and he saw them holding hands again...
Qiao Chen reacted and bowed quickly: "I have met His Royal Highness Prince Rui and Princess Rui!"
Fu Ciyi raised his hand to hold it, opened his thin lips lightly, and finally called: "Uncle."
Qiao Chen's eyes suddenly turned red: "Wen Yu is so big, but he is still alive, very good, very good!"
I think back then, he put the little man who was burned into black coal into the coffin with his own hands. As soon as he put it in, the black coal fell down.
He was also buried in the small coffin.
Now seeing that his nephew was handsome, tall and married to such a beautiful woman, he was so excited that tears suddenly fell down and he quickly wiped them away with his sleeves.
If fathers and mothers knew that their grandson was still alive and well, they would be relieved.
"In the fire scene, I clearly saw your..."
Burnt corpses.
"What, Wenyu, how did you escape?"
Fu Ciyi raised his hand to ask his uncle to sit down, and he pulled Yan Funing to sit down as well.
"I have never told anyone about my escape from the fire. It's better not to talk about it until the case comes to light." Thinking of the cold wind, he asked directly, "Uncle, what happened to the Qiao family back then? You What do you mean you have something to report?”
Qiao Chen began to recall: "After my sister left with you, the Qiao family was targeted, and my father and I were both impeached. Difficult issues were raised one after another, and the Qiao family was overwhelmed. My father and mother were already greatly affected, and with the addition of impeachment and difficulty, They left one after another. I was demoted from Beijing, which was a good ending. I originally thought they were Prince Jin, so I have been investigating them for more than ten years. Later I found out that they were all the concubine's people, and they all acted under the concubine's orders. I just thought that the concubine wanted to help me. My niece got the status of Princess Jin, so she killed you mother and son.”
"What happened back then is inseparable from the fact that the concubine is now the emperor and empress dowager, but it is by no means as simple as her helping her niece obtain the position of princess." Fu Ciyi said.
Yan Funing added: "I guess there is a deeper reason."
Qiao Chen nodded: "I don't know the specific reason, and I'm not sure. But the concubine wants to help her niece obtain the status of Princess Jin, which must be one of the purposes. If the deep-seated reason you mentioned exists, then this The motive of the old cunning woman is clear.”
Yan Funing asked: "My uncle originally thought that the murderer behind the scenes was the King of Jin. Can I ask why you think so?"
"He keeps saying that he likes my sister, but there are so many women around him. I don't doubt him, who do I doubt?" Qiao Chen was still very angry when he thought of this, "To be honest, 'Wenyu' was burned to black charcoal back then. , he didn’t even dare to look at it, it was me who killed that child with my own hands..."
As he said this, tears welled up in his eyes again.
Yan Funing let out a long sigh.
