Soon after Ning Yi left, Kou Xian came to ask the provincial hall.

However, He Lin didn't see him until an hour later, and Kou Xian went to interrogate the others first.

When Kou Xian came in, He Linwan was sitting on the only chair in the room, drowsy.

"Miss He is so bold. Kou Xian looked at He Linwan with a smile, "Our family just went to see a few other girls, and they all cried so much that they were so pitiful, Miss He can still sleep in my prison department!"

He Linwan stood up, saluted Kou Xian, and said with a smile: "The Criminal Prison Department is a reasonable place, and I haven't done anything bad, my father-in-law will naturally let me go home after asking clearly, so I feel that there is nothing to be afraid of." ”

Kou Xian was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed, "That's right! Of course, my Criminal Prison Department is a place to be reasonable, and there is no place to be more reasonable than the Criminal Prison Department." ”

Kou Xian walked straight to the chair and sat down, and He Linwan obediently stood in the center of the room.

"The Criminal Prison Department is reasonable, but it also has to be told the truth by Miss He. Kou Xian looked at He Linwan and said meaningfully, "On that day, the girl said that she went out of the city to burn incense in Baoan Temple, and today the girl should think clearly before answering." ”

He Linwan seemed a little embarrassed, "I lied to my father-in-law that day, but in fact, I went out of the city to meet a friend." ”

"The friend that the girl went out of the city to meet, but Zhao Qingqing, the female shopkeeper of the cyclamen?" Kou Xian didn't seem to be angry at He Linwan's deception to him, and asked with a smile.

He Linwan showed a hint of surprise on his face, and then said with annoyance: "It turns out that my father-in-law has already found out! Also, if the Criminal Prison Department wants to investigate something, where will there be anything that can't be found! I shouldn't have lied to you in the first place." ”

He Lin sent a letter to Zhao Qingqing early in the evening, and told him about the events of that day, and Zhao Qingqing replied that she didn't have to worry, she would arrange it. Therefore, Kou Xian found out that she went to meet Zhao Qingqing that day, and He Linwan was not surprised.

But Kou Xian's next sentence made He Linwan's heart tighten.

Kou Xian stared at He Linwan's eyes, and said in his words: "Miss He really just went to see the female shopkeeper surnamed Zhao? As far as I know, the identity of this female shopkeeper is not simple, right?"

Why did Kou Xian ask this? Could it be that Zhao Qingqing's identity was exposed? He Linwan's mind turned sharply, and he pretended to be puzzled on his face.

"......Isn't it easy? Isn't it easy?"

Kou Xian stared at He Linwan and smiled, "Her other identity, isn't it Miss He's sweetheart's sister?"

He Lin almost choked on the night.

"What kind of sweetheart, father-in-law, don't talk nonsense and tarnish my reputation!" He Lin said urgently.

Kou Xian smiled very amiably, and his tolerant face seemed to treat his junior who had made a harmless little mistake, "Miss He, don't worry. You are young and in your prime, and it is normal for men and women to think so much about each other! Although our family is a rootless person, we are also very reasonable and will never make a fuss. And I heard that it was Zhao Gongzi who was seriously ill, so Miss He was in a hurry to go out of the city to visit, which is also reasonable, we understand, understand!"

You understand a ghost! He Linwan rolled his eyes in his heart, full of helplessness.

I don't know how Sister Zhao misled her, and even made Kou Xian think that she went out of the city to visit her sick sweetheart.

Visiting the sick is true, but the sweetheart is.

However, half-truths and half-truths are indeed more difficult to debunk. In this way, she deliberately concealed her whereabouts at the beginning, and Zhao Yingchuan was also hiding, so she had a reasonable explanation.

Seeing He Linwan's face change, Kou Xian seemed to find it interesting, and most of his suspicions about He Linwan were dispelled, and his expression became more kind.

"Miss He, don't worry, you know this matter, and your sweetheart knows, our family will not publicize it, let alone let the prince of Hengyang know. ”

Although He Linwan has already married Li Yu, Emperor Tiancheng doesn't really want to see He Linwan and Li Yujia become a couple, so He Linwan has another sweetheart, which is something that Kou Xian is happy to see.

He Linwan struggled to explain, "I'm really not ...... with Zhao Gongzi"

"Okay, okay, Miss He said no, no, no. Kou Xian waved his hand, looking very tolerant, but in fact he skipped the topic in a very perfunctory manner.

He Linwan was rarely choked.

Kou Xian said: "Our family will not interfere in the affairs of your little children." But Miss He thought about it carefully, did you encounter any strange people or things on the way out of the city and back to the city that day? You can say whatever you think of, and it doesn't matter if you say something wrong, just think that you have nothing to do, chatting with our family. ”

He Linwan frowned and thought for a while, "Strange people or things?

Kou Xian was kind and persuasive, "I heard that Miss He has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and her ear and eyesight must be much better than ordinary people, so you might as well think about it carefully, maybe you saw or heard something that day, but you didn't remember it for a while?"

He Lin pondered for a long time in the evening, and Kou Xian was so patient that he sat there and waited without urging.

In the end, He Linwan still shook his head, "Father-in-law, I still haven't remembered anything useful." ”

Kou Xian was about to say something, but the stone door was pushed open again, and Wu Liang, the chamberlain who had brought He Linwan in before, stood outside the door and reported: "Lord Si Zheng, something has come out on the side of No. 5, and Father-in-law Yu asks you to come over." ”

Hearing this, Kou Xian's eyes flashed, and he immediately got up and walked out without hesitation, "Who is the fifth person in the second word?"

"Lord Hui, it's a maid who waits by Miss Tang's side......"

As the stone door closed, the conversation between the two was also cut off.

At the same time that He Linwan and their masters were brought into the Criminal Prison Division, the maids and servants who served them that day were not spared, and He Gui and Chunxiao were also in the Criminal Prison Division now, but they were not locked up with them.

"Tang ......" He Lin thought about it for a while, and then remembered that this Tang girl should be the daughter of the right capital Yushi Tang's family.

The Tang family's family background is also prominent, Tang Yushi's father was a cabinet minister of the first imperial dynasty, and now he is ninety years old, and he is being raised in the position of the secretary of the military department.
