His voice was very soft, but there was no hesitation at all.
Xin You's eyes turned cold and she met his eyes.
His eyes were calm and unguessable.
Xin You struggled for a moment and then calmed down: "Why did Mr. He say that? I'm not Kou Qingqing, who am I?"
He Qingxiao looked at the girl who was calm on the surface but had resistance written all over her hair. Her eyes softened, but the words she spoke made Xin You feel like she had fallen into an ice cave.
"What is your relationship with Queen Xin?"
The candlelight flickered, coating the girl's pale face with a layer of hazy yellow.
Xin You's fingertips trembled, and she tried to hold them tightly, but they were numb because of the cold.
She wasn't sure how much the other party knew, and was weighing between refusing to admit it and telling the truth.
But she had to admit that when she interacted with Jinlin Guard and came into the sight of the Jinlin Guard Town Envoy, he was destined to become a big stone on the road to revenge.
The first encounter was the beginning of trouble.
He Qingxiao knew that if he spoke clearly tonight, he would face her cold resistance, but at this moment, he was still stabbed by her eyes.
While doing this job, he had encountered countless looks of disgust and hatred, and he had long been able to turn a blind eye, but it turned out that she was different.
But he had to go on.
"Wanyang...is Queen Xin's hermitage?"
Xin You was shocked and looked at him expressionlessly.
He Qingxiao continued talking on her own: "Originally, because Miss Kou paid special attention to Wanyang and guessed that the death of Miss Kou's father might not have been an accident, I sent people to the south to investigate. Later, I found out that the Zhou Tong family that Miss Kou had contacted came from Wanyang. Yang moved to the capital..."
Xin You listened to He Qingxiao silently and felt something was wrong.
At this time, whoever speaks first and whoever speaks more is equivalent to turning over the trump card to the other party first.
It was impossible for He Qingxiao not to know this truth.
Why did he do this?
She raised her eyes and stared at his face.
He Qingxiao's eyes moved slightly and continued: "Miss Kou pays special attention to Guchangbo Mansion, and Zhou Tong has also been to Guchangbo Mansion. Zhou Tong has been in Wanyang for many years and has a humble position. He would not have anything to do with Guchangbo Mansion. Intersect, Miss Kou, an orphan living in her ancestral home, has no reason to be involved with the Guchang Bo Mansion."
"Is there any more?" Xin You asked.
At this point, she stopped making random guesses and simply waited for the other party to make it clear.
"And -" He Qingxiao looked at her, "Someone from Guchangbo Mansion went to Wanyang in early summer."
After hearing this, Xin You's face didn't change at all, she just waited quietly for him to continue.
"Putting these things together is unlikely to be a coincidence. So what does Wanyang have?" He Qingxiao paused and then said, "The people I sent to the south have been investigating for so long, but they haven't found anything about Miss Kou's father. A tragic accident was discovered."
Xin You's eyes tightened and she tightened her fingertips.
"According to people from nearby villages, there are some people who live in the mountains and occasionally walk outside. Most of these people are women. They know medical skills and have rescued many people. However, when someone takes the initiative to seek medical treatment in the mountains, they cannot be found. Traces..." He Qingxiao said about what he found, "Judging from the time of appearance and various behaviors of these people, they look very much like Queen Xin, who has been missing for many years."

According to reports, the identity of the survivor of her tragedy is also speculated.
She buried her mother and the others with her own hands, and it would have been difficult to find evidence to prove her mother's identity.
And when the results of the investigation point to a conclusion, there is no evidence and it will not change his mind.
What Xin You doesn't understand is the reason why he said this when there is no conclusive evidence. This will undoubtedly make him passive.
Xin You looked at the person in front of her.
His eyes were gentle and clean.
Xin You's heart moved.
Maybe - she doesn't have to keep it a secret?
He Qingxiao is the envoy of Jinlin Guard Town. If he finds out these things, he will definitely report them to the emperor. The fact that he took the initiative to say this to her represented an attitude in itself.
A predisposed attitude towards her.
Xinyou made a decision quickly.
She wanted to take a gamble.
There is no foolproof strategy in this world, and some are choices made based on the situation.
"It seems that nothing can be hidden from Mr. He. I am indeed a survivor of the tragedy in the valley."
Xin You's admission made He Qingxiao's eyes sparkle, and he had countless questions to ask her.
Xin You said simply: "If Master He has anything you want to ask, just ask."
"What do you call a girl?"
This question made Xin You look at him deeply: "My birth name is A You."
Ah You——He Qingxiao looked a little uncomfortable.
This title is too intimate...
The girl opposite obviously didn't mean to reveal her full name.
He Qingxiao had never felt so embarrassed. After thinking about it again and again, he asked tentatively: "Then I will call you Miss You from now on?"
Pomelo girl?
The corners of Xinyou's mouth moved.
Fortunately, her mother didn't give her a weirder name.
"Master He, please call me Miss Kou, at least for now I need this identity."
He Qingxiao breathed a sigh of relief and asked again: "Is it Queen Xin who had the accident in the valley?"
Xinyou nodded slightly.
He Qingxiao didn't feel happy when his speculation was confirmed.
Both of his parents died when he was young. Although there were many servants in the Hou Mansion, they were alienated from people's hearts. The only one who had family affection was Aunt Gui.
Aunt Gui was sent by Empress Xin to take care of him because she felt sorry for his loneliness.
He heard a lot about Queen Xin from Aunt Gui, and deep down he respected Queen Xin as his own elder.
Therefore, when he investigated the tragedy in the valley and found out that it was probably the reclusive Queen Xin, his first thought was not to report to the emperor, but to talk to Miss Kou.
Even if there was no chance encounter tonight, he would be ready to find her tomorrow.
Xin You was stunned by He Qingxiao's reaction.
Is Mr. He sad about his mother's death?
This discovery made her cold heart feel a little warm.
It seems she made the right bet.
"Then what is your relationship with Queen Xin?"
Xin You was silent for a moment and said softly: "My mother is Queen Xin's maid. Queen Xin has always treated me as her daughter. I escaped by chance and came to Beijing to find the murderer of Queen Xin and my mother. "
He Qingxiao looked into her eyes and asked a crucial question: "When Queen Xin left the palace, she was pregnant. Did she give birth to a prince?"
The people sent by Guchangbo Mansion have not returned to the capital yet, and they seem to be looking for someone.
And his people unexpectedly learned that among the people living in the mountains, there was a young man who was about the right age.
