Chapter 26: Interrogation
After listening to Qin Hanzhen and Wu Shaoying's narration, Qin An was speechless for a long time. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Qin Hanzhen saw his expression and knew that he was very shocked. Could it be ...... Did He keep him in the dark?
She couldn't help asking: "Don't these second uncles know? Don't you know that the He family first secretly sent Brother Zi'er and the brothers back, and then fled back with her brother? You don't know if my mother is dead, or was forced by the He family? Then my father asked you to send a letter to the family, but the He family hid the news, and you don't know it? Second uncle, what do you know?!"
Qin An was embarrassed by his little niece's words: "I...... I don't really know that...... I left all the family affairs to your second aunt. In the past few months, except for the days before and after the Chinese New Year, I have been soaking in the barracks for military training almost every day, and I don't know much about my family......"
Wu Shaoying, who had been staring at Qin An silently, asked when he heard this: "Does Datongwei really have so many soldiers to train? When Hu Yong sent a letter to his family before, you had already entered the camp to train his troops, and he was squeezed out and framed by the He family's brothers and sisters, and you didn't know anything. He escaped from Mizhi with an injury, and there was only one girl left beside him, and you didn't think there was anything wrong with it? Second Brother Qin, you weren't such a careless person before!"
Qin An said ashamedly: "I really don't know! Since you have already received the letter from the eldest brother and know that he is escorting His Royal Highness King Qin to Beijing, I can speak with less taboos." I'm not afraid to tell you honestly, since His Royal Highness King Qin came to Datong, General Ma felt that the men and horses who attacked King Qin that day might all be officials and soldiers from Jin, and maybe they were also related to the Jin Palace. The soldiers in our guard house can't guarantee that they don't have the eyes and ears of the Jin Palace. In order not to leak the news, His Royal Highness King Qin went out of the city gate with his front foot, and General Ma gathered all the soldiers with his back foot, and under the banner of military training, he actually took care of everyone. The people who could stay outside the camp and be responsible for defending the city were all General Ma's henchmen.
Because of fate, I knew something inside, so I was also confined to the camp and was not allowed to communicate with the outside world. I know the severity of the matter, and I have been immersed in military training, ignoring foreign affairs, but I only know that at that time, there were a few people who wanted to sneak away from the barracks, and they were arrested by General Ma's people, and they were dealt with by military law. Later, there was an accident in the Jin Palace, and some people were investigated. With so many military attachés of all sizes going at once, there was inevitably some turmoil in the guard. In order to prevent trouble, General Ma has been training non-stop in the past few months......"
Qin Hanzhen and Wu Shaoying suddenly realized. No wonder Qin An didn't know anything about his family. And Hu Yong wanted to ask someone he knew to give him a letter, but he didn't succeed. If it was just a military training, it should not have been cut off from the news. But if General Ma deliberately isolated him, an insider, from the outside world in order to avoid the leakage of rumors, it is still possible that this situation will occur.
But even so, Qin An trusted the He family too much, for such a long time, more than half a year, he didn't have a letter with his family or anything? All the chores were handed over to the He family? But if he had a letter with his family, why was he kept in the dark?
No...... This may not be the case, he may not have written to his family, but if he had been deceived by the He family and knew nothing about the truth, he would naturally not mention any disposition of his wife in the letter. Qin Hanzhen remembered what Niu and Mama Hu had complained about in private, and had a guess about what his grandmother said, "The second son has no heart and no liver, pretends to be nothing, and doesn't mention the bad things that the second daughter-in-law has done".
Qin Hanzhen sighed, and quickly returned to the topic: "Okay, since the second uncle doesn't know anything, I can't blame you for anything." But now that you know, what are you going to do?"
Qin An was stunned, and stopped talking.
What can he do? If his wife really did so many wrong things, can he still defend her? The life of the sister-in-law and the life of the old man in the in-laws are all folded in it, not to mention that it is impossible for his parents to agree, and even he himself cannot easily say a word of forgiveness. What's more, his brother Qin Ping, who is far away in the capital, is afraid that he still doesn't know the news of his wife's death. My brother has cared for him since he was a child, and even gave up the opportunity for promotion for his private affairs. How could he let his brother be sad and disappointed?
But...... Thinking that He is his beloved wife, he has always been gentle and considerate to himself, and he gave birth to a son for himself, and now he is pregnant with his own flesh and blood, Qin An feels that his heart is like a knife, and it is difficult to give up. He really didn't understand, why did He do these things, why did she let their husband and wife fall into such a miserable and helpless situation?!
Qin Hanzhen looked at the painful look on Qin An's face, and he couldn't figure out why he was in pain. I heard that in order to marry her, he even ignored the opposition of his parents, and he has been living in Datong with He for many years, and rarely goes home to visit his parents......
Qin Hanzhen didn't dare to have too much trust in Qin An, so he deliberately said, "I'm not trying to force the second uncle to make any decisions. After careful calculation, He refused to hand over his father's letter to his grandfather and grandmother, naturally there was a reason for her, and the second uncle asked her about it. Sister Zhang pushed me down the dirt slope, causing me serious injuries, although the scar is still there, and my body has been quite weak, but after all, I am alive. If I insist on punishing Sister Zhang, let alone He's mother-in-law, I'm afraid that the second uncle will not be able to help but feel sorry for his adopted daughter, so ...... I'll forget about it, and the second uncle doesn't have to mention it. However, I can back down on other things, only my mother's death, I can't back down, and my second uncle won't let me forget about it, right?"
"Of course I won't!" Qin An blurted out, his eyes were red, "Second Uncle will definitely give you an explanation, you just have to rest assured! Not only your second aunt, but even Sister Zhang'er is the same, whoever does something wrong should be responsible." Your second aunt betrayed the trust of her second uncle first, and did things that hurt nature and reason, which is unforgivable and reasonable. Second Uncle understands this truth and will never let you down!"
He didn't hear that Qin Han was really retreating, so he followed her tone so easily and gave a promise. Qin Hanzhen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he also felt a little bored. It's all come to this point, Qin An still keeps calling He "your second aunt", it seems that he didn't hear the deep meaning of her words. Mr. Qin and the Niu family have long had a tacit understanding, and they must leave the He family from the Qin family. I hope Qin An really won't disappoint everyone this time.
After thinking about it, Qin Hanzhen decided to go to another level of insurance: "With the promise of the second uncle, I will be relieved." But, second uncle, I still don't understand why He had to hide my father's peace letter? Even if my aunt said a few words that she didn't like to hear, she wanted to hate her, and she hated my aunt, but she wanted to take revenge on my mother, and she ignored my grandfather's and grandmother's illness, knowing that they were so sad that they vomited blood for my father, and refused to tell them the truth. The second uncle didn't know that as soon as the letter from the capital arrived, as soon as my grandmother heard that my father was not dead, her condition improved greatly in a few days. It can be seen that she has been sick for several months, and the root cause is heart disease. If it weren't for He, she wouldn't have been sick for so long. ”
She looked up at Qin An: "What is she thinking in her head? Is her heart made of iron? Isn't the second uncle a filial son? Why does your wife treat your biological parents like this?!"
Qin An was embarrassed again, he wished there was a crack in the ground that would allow him to get in, so that he wouldn't have to listen to his wife do anything wrong.
But Qin Han really refused to let him go like this, He dared to run rampant, wasn't it Qin An's connivance? It's just a few words of questioning, what can't he stand it?
She continued to ask Qin An: "He also said that if he wants to force my mother to remarry someone else in a short period of time, lest the long house be cut off, my grandfather and grandmother will pass Brother Zi'er to the long house, causing their mother and son to be separated." Originally, I also believed her statement, but she clearly knew that my father was not dead, and the theory of succession was not valid at all, so why did she ruin my mother's reputation and force my mother to remarry for this reason? Is it really because my aunt gossiped about her? But there are more people who joke that she is married for the second time, and the Chen family has been preaching to the public all day long that Sister Zhang is not the flesh and blood of the Chen family, and she has not seen what happened to the He family, why does she have to get along with my mother? Also, if she does these things, isn't she afraid that my father will know the truth after he comes back and will not let her go? She seemed confident that she would not be punished. Could it be that the second uncle gave her any promises?"
Qin An shook his head with red eyes: "Second Uncle has definitely not supported her to do these things. The second uncle doesn't understand why she did this, but the second uncle will interrogate clearly, and he will never let your mother lose her life in vain!"
Seeing this, Qin Hanzhen felt that he had probably done almost it, Qin An had already expressed his position, and if he forced it to continue, he would be aggressive, so he saluted him: "Second uncle, my niece is rude today, please don't blame me." ”
Qin An smiled miserably and shook his head: "No, good boy, you are very good, much more sensible than before." I heard your father say that you are naughty and mischievous, it is all nonsense, you are obviously a smart and steady child. ”
Wu Shaoying bowed his head and said to Qin Hanzhen: "You go back to the backyard to rest first, and by the way, report to the teacher and the master, saying that your second uncle is back, and you have told everything about it, but your second uncle needs a little time to see the second elder." ”
Qin Hanzhen was stunned, although he didn't understand Wu Shaoying's intentions, he still obediently agreed and left the main hall. Previously, when their uncle and nephew were talking, she asked Zhang's mother and Brother Hun to stay outside the door and prevent others from approaching, but now she is taking Zhang's mother away, and Brother Hun continues to stay and listen to orders.
As soon as Qin Hanzhen left, Wu Shaoying sent Brother Hun away, and asked his henchman to stay outside the door, and then turned back to talk to Qin An.
Seeing him like this, Qin An was a little puzzled: "Shaoying, what are you doing?" Wu Shaoying also studied under Mr. Qin for several years when he was a teenager, and he was also familiar with Qin Ping and Qin An's brothers. Qin An opened his mouth and called his name directly.
Wu Shaoying sat down opposite Qin An, with a solemn expression: "Second Brother Qin, there are some things that are inconvenient to say in front of the child. Now that Sister Sang is gone, I have fewer taboos. You need to answer my question truthfully. This matter is related to your net worth and life, it is not a joke, and the teacher also knows it, you must not deceive in the slightest!"
Qin An was stunned, and his heart was a little uneasy: "What else is going on?" Is it also related to the He family?"
Wu Shaoying didn't answer directly, but only asked him: "When your cousin-in-law left Datong with King Qin, how much did you know? Do you know the route they left? Do you know when they left? Have you ever revealed these things to anyone? Including He or anyone around you? What did you tell your cousin-in-law when you handed her the letter to He and asked her to take it back to Mizhi's house?!"
Qin An was shocked, and his face changed suddenly: "What do you want to say?!" (To be continued.) )
