Early the next morning, Miss Huada, who shared a night of maternal love with the white cat Xiaoxue, finally met Qiao Changshi.

Qiao Changshi didn't know that the eldest princess's mother and daughter were still talking to him last night, and when he heard that the girl was looking for him, he was confused, the girl had never taken the initiative to find him, could it be for the porridge shed.

Opening a porridge shed is a good deed, as a long history, Qiao Changshi takes soup soup as a big thing every year, and never slackens, who would have thought that there would be an accident this year.

Hua Jingyao saw Qiao Changshi who came in a hurry, and she was a little reluctant, so she didn't go around in circles, and asked about Qiao Wenlian straight to the point.

Unexpectedly, Qiao Changshi was scared out of the situation since the flying disaster five years ago, as soon as Miss Hua said the three words Qiao Wenlian, Qiao Changshi's face was pale, his lips were flushed, and his throat was full of sound, but he couldn't speak.

Hua Jingyao hurriedly sent the maid to the small kitchen to make soothing tea, Qiao Changshi waved his hand, took out a small box from his arms, took out a pill and swallowed it in his mouth, and after a long while, he was finally able to say the complete words.

“…… Girl, don't blame, this official is an old problem, this medicine is specially prepared by His Royal Highness to the hospital, just take one when you have palpitations. ”

Hua Jingyao stroked her forehead, Qiao Changshi had this problem, no wonder the princess didn't remind her, it turned out that she knew that Qiao Changshi would carry a life-saving elixir with him.

She asked apologetically, "Since Lord Changshi is unwell, then I won't ask." ”

"The girl should ask, otherwise the official's heart will be hanging, for fear that this matter will fall on the official again." Qiao Changshi was almost in tears, he must have eaten enough back then, so he would give the book to Qiao Wenlian, just for this matter, Feiyuwei forcibly copied his home, if it weren't for the eldest princess as a guarantor, their Qiao family would have suffered three thousand miles away now.

Hua Jingyao laughed, she heard a story about a boot, the people downstairs heard the people upstairs throw the boots on the ground, and only took off one whip that day, so the people downstairs didn't sleep all night waiting for the other whip to fall down.

If she hadn't asked today, Qiao Changshi would have been like the person downstairs.

She said: "Lord Changshi don't have to worry, the case had nothing to do with you back then, and this matter will not change once it has been clarified, I invite you to come over because I am now helping Shuntianfu investigate a case, and there is a person who also happened to be involved in the exam case five years ago, so I want to know about Qiao Wenlian, and please ask Lord Changshi to recall, just say what you remember, as long as it is related to Qiao Wenlian, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

Qiao Changshi finally breathed a sigh of relief, although he was also looking for him to understand the situation, but Miss Huada and Feiyuwei were different.

Qiao Changshi thought for a while and said: "Qiao Wenlian is the only son in the family, his wife is the daughter of a tenant in the family, Qiao's mother was bitten by a snake in the field in the early years, this woman happened to pass by, saved Qiao's mother, Qiao's mother was grateful and made the decision to marry this daughter into the door, but unfortunately this woman failed to give birth to a boy, Qiao's mother told Qiao Wenlian to take a concubine when she was dying, although Qiao Wenlian agreed, but he abided by the ancient precept that forty childless concubines can be concubines, until he was lifted, and he did not carry the concubine into the door, this matter was a good story in the local area for a while. ”

Hua Jingyao secretly said in her heart, it is worth saying that a man does not take a concubine when he is young? That's how low the requirements are for men.

She smiled encouragingly and said to Qiao Changshi: "Lord Changshi said that this matter is very important, think about it, do you remember anything else?" ”

The expression on Qiao Changshi's face gradually became clearer, he thought for a while, and then said: "When Qiao Wenlian just moved out of the official's house, the official didn't want to go, and he once went to his temporary residence, which was in a private house in Tieguo Hutong, the house was rented, Qiao Wenlian lived there with the two jujus, it was a small mansion that he entered, there was a jujube tree in front of the yard, and on the day the official went, there happened to be a mother-in-law who came out of the yard, and the mother-in-law didn't look like a serious person, and the official was surprised at that time, When he saw Qiao Wenlian, he casually mentioned it, Qiao Wenlian said that it was the landlord, and the official didn't ask again. But then Feiyuwei went to the house to arrest people, and found out that the landlord of the house was the owner of the calligraphy and painting house in front of the Gongyuan, and I often went to the calligraphy and painting house, and the boss was also a scholar, not only good at Danqing, but also a master of mounting, and his wife was also from a scholarly family, and was a lady, when I heard that the house was his house, I remembered the mother-in-law I saw that day, but at that time the official was tossed by Feiyuwei...... Alas, more is better than less, and the matter is not mentioned. ”

This is a clue, Hua Jingyao felt that the place of Tieguo Hutong seemed to have been talked about, but any place name in the capital, even if she hadn't been there, she should have heard of it, she didn't think much about it, and quickly left it behind.

"In that house back then, the two lifters who lived with Qiao Wenlian, have you ever seen Master Changshi?" Hua Jingyao asked.

In fact, about the matter of the two lifters, there will definitely be a case file in Dali Temple to investigate, but the case file of Dali Temple will not let her see it casually, so if you can find out from Qiao Changshi, you should ask Qiao Changshi.

"Speaking of those two people, Qiao Wenlian's case is inseparable from those two people, but the official has only seen one of them, that is, when the official went to visit Qiao Wenlian in the iron pot alley that day, he once saw the man named Lang Shi, and when the official saw that Lang Shi was honest and loyal, he thought it was a good one, who would have thought ...... Alas! Qiao Changshi sighed.

"Lang Shi? Who lived with Qiao Wenlian back then, was there another one named Meng Xin? Hua Jingyao asked.

"Yes, of course, after this case was issued, the Haiyu official document wanted to arrest Qiao Wenlian and Lang Shi, as well as this Meng Xin, I guess Meng Xin was another person who lived with them back then." Qiao Changshi said.

Hua Jingyao's heart moved, and asked: "In this way, Lang Shi has not been brought to justice, and like Qiao Wenlian and Meng Xin, he is still on the run?" ”

Qiao Changshi said: "Whether they have been caught now, the official does not know, but they were on the run back then." ”

Hua Jingyao bowed slightly, and asked again: "I heard that Qiao Wenlian's youngest daughter got married at the age of thirteen, so she escaped, what about his wife?" Where is it now? ”

Qiao Changshi said: "That's right, this is the unbearable thing about Qiao Wenlian, knowing that the crime he committed would harm his family, but he still had to take risks, fortunately he had no children under his knees, otherwise he would really ruin his children and grandchildren." His two daughters are married, and they can't be harmed, but they pity his wife, who was captured by Feiyuwei and returned to the capital, where she was imprisoned for more than half a year, and later became an official slave. ”

Hua Jingyao's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly asked, "Qiao Wenlian's wife is an official slave?" Was she in the capital, or did she go somewhere else? ”
