365 The truth_2
The young eunuch looked at him, hesitating to speak.
“If you have something to say, just say it. Don’t hesitate.”
“Lord Xu, I’m a little scared.”
Don’t be afraid, I’ll be gentle … Xu Qi ‘an laughed and said,”don’t worry. I won’t let you know what you’re not supposed to know.” Just be good and listen to me. ”
The young eunuch heaved a sigh of relief. I’m relieved to hear that.
Xu Qi ‘an had thought that he would be able to share a carriage with huaiqing, but he had not expected the heartless huaiqing to give him a horse.
Sitting on the horse, Xu Qi ‘an followed the princess’s carriage to the Imperial uncle’s mansion. He couldn’t help but think of his beloved little mare.
When he was attacked yesterday, he drove the little mare away. After killing three assassins, he went to the Yamen to recuperate. Until now, he still did not know the whereabouts of the little mare.
However, before he entered the palace this morning, he had instructed his colleagues to find the little mare.
The car window rolled down, and huaiqing poked his face out. His facial features were flawless, his nose was sharp, and his lips were bright red. The corners of his lips were as exquisite as a carving. Her beautiful eyes were like clear autumn water.
“Even if Imperial mother really did take the blame for Imperial uncle, the person behind the scenes still hasn’t been found.” She sighed.
Xu Qi ‘an didn’t answer, but asked, ” what I don’t understand even more is why the mastermind did not attack the Queen until now.
The two of them looked at each other speechlessly.
……..
The state uncle’s Manor was in the Imperial City. Xu Qi ‘an and the eldest Princess arrived at the state uncle’s Manor and asked the guards. They found out that the state uncle was not in the Imperial City, but in the old mansion in the inner city.
“Go and ask, when did state uncle move to the old estate?” Huaiqing rolled down the window and ordered the accompanying guards.
“This morning,” the guard replied.
This morning? Emperor Yuan jing was the one who had proposed to depose as the Empress during the court meeting this morning … Xu Qi ‘an subconsciously looked at huaiqing and realized that his first wife was also looking at him.
“To the Shangguan old mansion.” Princess huaiqing said coldly.
The luxurious carriage made of gold-threaded nanmu slowly drove out of the Imperial City. It took more than an hour to reach the Shangguan family’s ancestral home.
Surprisingly, the Shangguan family’s old house was only a courtyard with three entrances. It was not much bigger than the mansion that Xu Qi ‘an had bought. Of course, in terms of exquisiteness and luxury, it was definitely superior to the Xu residence.
Moreover, there were many guards here.
Xu Qi ‘an took advantage of the carriage’s slow stop and took out a piece of Qi observation paper that he had prepared on the road. He lit it up with Qi.
The carriage stopped outside Shangguan’s residence. Huaiqing stepped on a small stool and went straight into the residence. The guards at the door did not dare to stop him.
On the way, huaiqing told Xu Qi ‘an about the Shangguan family’s history. The Shangguan family was not a big family. His maternal grandfather, Shangguan qingguan, was the left Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Revenue and the scholar of the East Pavilion.
But this was all after Empress Shangguan entered the Feng Qi Palace.
Before this, the Shangguan family was just a small family. Huaiqing’s maternal grandfather, Shangguan PEI, was only a sixth-grade imperial censor.
“The Wei family and the Shangguan family have been friends for generations. When the Duke of Wei was young, his family was poor and he used to study in the Shangguan family. Maternal grandfather can be considered as half of his teacher.” Said Princess huaiqing.
Xu Qi ‘an nodded. He had only just found out about Wei Yuan’s relationship with the Empress today.
“Then, Lord Wei …” He paused for a moment, but still asked, “”How did you enter the palace?”
Princess huaiqing shook her head.
After passing through the front yard, the sound of brass music came.
In the distance, they saw the door of the back hall open. Seven or eight dancers in thin gauze danced and the musicians played decadent music.
Xu Qi ‘an’s eyes widened. To be honest, he was used to such scenes in the education workshop, but even the dancers in the education workshop were not as bold as the women in the hall.
Those women were not wearing bellies or underwear, only a thin layer of gauze, showing off their coquettishness.
In the hall, a fair-skinned, good-looking middle-aged man sat at the head of the table. He had a mustache and was hugging a beauty in his left and right arms.
He was lecherously admiring the dancing dancers.
A few diners sat on both sides, looking very happy.
Xu Qi ‘an had a deeper understanding of this state uncle’s preposterous and lecherous nature. His sister was about to be crippled, but he was still here indulging in his lust. What was even more preposterous was that the Empress was taking the blame for him.
The air was cold. When could the brother-supporting demons stand up?
The eldest Princess stopped outside the hall, turned her head, and looked at Xu Qi ‘an.
Xu Qi ‘an took off his saber and walked to the door. He knocked on the door frame with the scabbard and shouted, ” ward rounds. Men, squat on the left side. Women, squat on the right side. Cover your head. Take out your ID cards.
The entranced crowd was taken aback, and only then did they notice Xu Qi ‘an and Princess huaiqing standing outside.
The dancers stopped dancing, and the musicians stopped playing. The state uncle with a mustache was stunned at first, and then he frowned.
Huaiqing crossed the threshold and entered the hall. He said coldly, everyone, get out of the hall. Don’t come within a hundred steps of this place. Anyone who disobeys will be killed without mercy.
“Yes!” Xu Qi ‘an said loudly.
Flicking the handle of the saber with his thumb, he unsheathed it half an inch. Everyone in the huangu Hall shouted, “”Hurry up and get lost.”
The musicians, dancers, and diners all dispersed.
“Don’t go, don’t go …”
The Imperial uncle shouted, but he could not stop the crowd from leaving. He stomped his feet in anger, pointed at Xu Qi ‘an, and scolded, “”Where did this dog slave come from? someone come, someone come …”
No wonder huaiqing loathed this uncle so much, and no wonder she had suspected the Imperial uncle at first notice.
This was 24K’s pure FOP.
After shouting a few times and seeing that no one was supporting him, Imperial uncle stopped shouting. He squinted his eyes and looked at Princess huaiqing,”Huaiqing, what are you doing at uncle’s residence instead of staying in the palace?”
