Before dawn, Xiao Yue was pregnant in the Changqing Palace and couldn't wait any longer, so she took advantage of the beginning of the court to say goodbye to her mother and found an excuse to leave first.
I thought things would not go so smoothly, Lu Pingsheng would definitely keep an eye on her and leave the palace with her.
Unexpectedly, she had never seen Lu Pingsheng again since she returned to Changqing Palace. I asked before leaving, and the servants below all said that the prince-in-law had gone to deal with important matters under His Majesty's orders and would not be back for a long time, so he told the princess to please help herself.
Xiao Yuehuai couldn't help but suspect that there was something wrong with her memory. After she let Qin E go and returned to the Changqing Palace in her previous life, Lu Pingsheng had been by her side, staring at her all the time and never leaving.
But this life...why is it completely different?
However, the urgency of the situation left her no time to think carefully about the weirdness. She left the palace in a chariot and walked anxiously south, with her whole heart on Qin E.
There is a towering gate in Songyi Lane in the south of the city.
Inside the residence, pavilions, green water and green water flow around the corridor, and pavilions and water pavilions are laid out layer by layer, creating a majestic and spacious layout.
After the turbulence, Xiao Yuehuai stood in front of the steps of the mansion with her skirt in hand. She glanced at the door plaque hanging on the upper beam and stared at the word "Yue Zhai" with a lot of sourness.
Her maternal grandfather was Yue Songzhang, the Minister of War at that time. He was born in the Yue family in Jingkou. His family, together with the Lu family in Lin'an and the Qin family in Guangling, was called the Great Wednesday Family.
The three families stand together as heads of clans.
After the fall of the Qin family in the previous life, the Lu family and the Yue family were at par with each other. Unexpectedly, Yue Mukun, the eldest son of the Yue family, was exposed to murder and expropriation. Once the crime was exposed, the whole family was buried in a sea of fire, and more than 100 people in the family were killed. People died violently, leaving no bones.
She was already under house arrest in the Lu Mansion when the Yue family was organizing the funeral ceremony, and could not even add a stick of incense. What a pity...
Now that she is back in her hometown, she is filled with excitement.
The porter's boy saw her, raised his lamp, bent down to greet her, saluted carefully, and whispered: "Princess, be safe. The Lord is waiting in the front hall, please follow me."
Xiao Yuehuai nodded slightly when he heard the sound, and followed the servant to the hall of Yue Mansion.
Her anxiety dissipated instantly when she saw Qin E and A Lu standing in front of the court. Yue Songzhang specially asked them to dress up and dress up as slaves to greet them. The moment the three little girls met, joy spread.
Xiao Yuehuai shed tears happily, held Qin E and A Lu in her arms, and said how lucky she was.
Yue Songzhang was watching from the corridor, with a kind and friendly smile on his face.
"Huaicheng? Why are you hanging out outside? Why don't you come in to discuss matters?"
At this time, a majestic call came from the foyer, awakening the three people who were hugging each other and crying.
Xiao Yuehuai quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, pulled Qin E and A Lu up the steps, bowed to Yue Songzhang on the corridor, and said, "Huaicheng respectfully wishes my grandfather well!"
Yue Songzhang smiled kindly at her and said: "Since little Ahuai is here to discuss important matters, I would like to talk to your uncle. Grandpa will guard the door for you and make sure that no one will find out that Qin girl is in our house."
Xiao Yuehuai responded with two choked sobs, and led Qin E into the hall with tears in her eyes.
After crossing the high threshold, sitting in front of the Li Mu Mo table was a middle-aged man with a high crown and robe. At this moment, his dark face was full of displeasure, and the fine wrinkles on his forehead were clustered together due to the tense expression. His bright eyes were staring directly at the three little girls, faintly suppressing them. Some anger.
Xiao Yuehuai caught a glimpse of this scene. Before she could reach the middle-aged man, she led Qin'e and Alu to kneel down and kowtowed solemnly: "Good morning, uncle! If you are guilty of a serious crime, you will be released privately." The daughter of the Qin family escaped from prison and behaved unbecomingly, and she is willing to be punished by her uncle!"
"How dare I punish you? Now you are becoming more and more courageous. You dare to commit such a capital crime of beheading, and you actually let the Qin family's daughter come to seek shelter from the Yue family? Aren't you afraid that your mother will be implicated in this?"
Sitting upright in the upper hall is Xiao Yuehui's uncle - the eldest son of Yue Songzhang, Yue Ziru, the official minister of the dynasty, and the eldest brother of Queen Yue's mother.
He serves as the head of the Yue family and is governed very strictly. When he got angry, there was a sudden silence in the hall, and the servants didn't even dare to breathe. Xiao Yuehuai retorted without hesitation: "Huaicheng knows that my uncle is not a timid person, so he dares to act like this."
Yue Ziru sneered: "You know me very well?"
Xiao Yuehuai raised her arms and crossed her hands in salute, and said sincerely: "My uncle is a pregnant woman, so of course he knows that if you really don't want to get involved in Qin's case, you won't take the risk and secretly prepare manpower for rescue while the Ministry of Punishment is reviewing the case. "
Yue Ziru's face changed visibly, and he clenched his hands in surprise: "How did you know about the Ministry of Punishment?"
"Uncle! How could I not know that I was deeply interested in the Qin family's case and was investigating it with all my heart?"
"Although my second cousin stopped me in time to prevent the Yue family from getting into great trouble, this incident alone is enough to prove that you and I do not want to believe that Mr. Qin Ge would do such a corrupt thing! In this case... Why don't we work together to rescue him? Clear the grievances of the Qin family and restore the situation?"
Yue Ziru frowned in worry, a look of helplessness on his tired face: "How to save? How to save? Little Ah Huai... It's not that my uncle is unwilling to save, but all the methods have been used, but the more he investigates the case, the more he becomes more and more concerned. Surprisingly, every statement given by the accuser is true, and even I don’t know whether this case is true or false.”
Xiao Yuehuai looked determined: "Huaicheng has enough evidence to prove Mr. Qin Ge's innocence!"
These words drew everyone's attention to her.
Yue Ziru's expression calmed down and he stared at her seriously: "Little Ahuai, this matter is no child's play... The Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple are both at a loss, what evidence can you have?"
Xiao Yuehuai did not directly take out the wooden box in his arms to show it to the public, but held his hands in a bow——
"The clues Huaicheng has can't be revealed yet. But please ask my uncle to buy a day for me and Niao Niao. Tomorrow night, I hope my second cousin can bring an elite team to Songshui Pier to set up an ambush. I will let the mastermind behind the scenes To expose traces and expose the crime."
Seeing how confident and confident she was, Yue Ziru asked half-convinced, "Do you really have a way to reverse the current situation?"
"Uncle! Please trust me once!"
The hall was silent for a long time, and then a sigh came slowly. Yue Ziru made up his mind: "Okay, I will delay it for you for one day, and you can do what you want to do without worry. As for your cousin... I will take care of it, but if you can't make it tomorrow, Qin Yatou will He must turn himself in and go back to jail.”
Xiao Yuehuai immediately kowtowed and thanked: "Thank you for your success, uncle!"
When leaving Yue Mansion, Yue Songzhang, who was waiting in front of the court, quietly stopped the three little girls.
Before Xiao Yuehuai could speak, the gray-haired old man stepped forward, handed a jade pendant into her hand, and whispered softly: "Little Ahuai, this is the token of Qianchun Tower. Take it to the shopkeeper Yan Siniang." , the people in the building will be at your disposal. Remember to be careful in everything and take care of yourself!"
Xiao Yuehuai clenched the jade that was as cold as ice and snow, tried hard to hold back the rolling emotions in her heart, and nodded: "Huaicheng understands."
