Chapter 239: Coming Back from the Palace

He paused for a moment and said, "That's what happened to my mother. ”

Xie Fu Yi said as he quietly observed the reaction of the third prince, when he heard about Mrs. Xie, his body stiffened significantly, and his expression flashed a trace of unnaturalness, although he quickly covered it up, but still did not escape Xie Fu Yi's eyes.

"I've also heard about Mrs. Xie's affairs." The third prince twisted his body and said, "You mourn." ”

Xie Fuyi replied: "Thank you Your Highness for your concern." ”

The Third Highness looked left and right, and seemed unwilling to continue greeting Xie Fuyi.

Of course, Xie Fuyi would not pester him to talk, the two were just nodding friends, if they pestered each other to say too much, it would inevitably make the other party suspicious.

"I'm leaving." The Third Highness said to Xie Fu Yi, "You wait slowly." ”

"Your Highness, go slowly." Xie Fu Yi said.

When His Royal Highness walked away, he retracted his gaze wisely, and he couldn't help but look at Xie Fuyi: "Childe, it's really strange......

"What's strange?" Xie Fuyi asked rhetorically.

"There is no carriage for the Third Highness here." Clever said, scratching the back of his head, "When we came, we didn't see any carriages, did we?" ”

Xie Fu Yi had also noticed this a long time ago: "Yes." ”

"Is the Third Highness just going back?" Clever puzzled, "It's weird. ”

After that, the little guy looked at Xie Fuyi, "Childe, use me ......"

He nodded in the direction where His Royal Highness had left, and then made another small gesture, which only Xie Fu Yi could understand, the meaning of "tracking".

Xie Fuyi shook his head: "No need for you, someone has already gone." ”

"Anyone?" Smart paused, and then patted his head: "Brother Liu or Brother Zhou?" ”

"Liu Tang." Xie Fuyi said.

…………

After seeing off the Third Highness, Xie Fuyi turned around and looked at the palace gate again.

It's been two hours since Old Lady Xie went in......

Although when he went in, Gonggong Liu promised him that he would personally send Mrs. Xie out, but after such a little bit of time, he just didn't see Mrs. Xie, and Xie Fuyi's heart was inevitably unsteady.

Right now......

With a "squeak", the locked palace door opened again.

"Childe! Son! Smart clapping, "This time it's the old man!" The old man is out! ”

Xie Fuyi hurriedly walked a few steps and held the old lady Xie.

Gonggong Liu was also by the master's side, and said with a smile: "Little Xie Gongzi, have you waited for a long time?" ”

Xie Fu Yi was polite and replied, "Soon." ”

Gonggong Liu smiled and said, "Oh, I ......sent it to you, Old Xie," he said, and looked at Old Lady Xie again, "Old Xie, you go slowly, I won't send it far." ”

Old lady Xie smiled back: "Go back." ”

"I'll bring a pot of good wine to see you when I'm free." Gonggong Liu reluctantly said a few words before leaving.

Xie Fuyi looked at Mrs. Xie: "Grandpa......"

Old Lady Xie knew what he was going to ask, waved his hand and said, "Go home and talk about it." ”

"Yes!"

…………

…………

When Xie Fuyi and Master Xie returned to Xie's house, it was already the second half of the night.

Xie Fuyi helped the old man and approached the house.

The old man's steps were not as steady as before, and when he entered the door, if it wasn't for Xie Fuyi's support, he almost knocked down.

Xie Fu Yi was doubly careful and stabilized the old man, he felt sorry for the old man for nearly a night, and said: "Grandpa, you directly tell who the person behind the scenes is, and you can leave the rest to me." ”

Master Xie waved his hand and said, "It's not that simple. ”

Xie Fu Yi was stunned.

Old Lady Xie was sluggish, and slowly sat into the Taishi chair, he exhaled and pointed to the chair next to him: "Sit down first, and speak slowly." ”

"Yes." Xie Fuyi sat opposite the old man and handed over a cup of hot tea.

Old lady Xie didn't drink tea, he looked at Xie Fuyi and sighed before speaking.

Xie Fuyi tightened, but there was no worry on his face, and he was still as usual: "The matter is very complicated?" ”

Old lady Xie nodded: "I want to avenge your mother, I'm afraid it won't be so simple......"

Xie Fu Yi held his breath and looked at Old Lady Xie, waiting for him to continue, only to hear him sigh again involuntarily and say, "The emperor said that Gong Liang's person behind the scenes is ......"

The old lady paused: "It's the emperor's eldest grandson, Xiao He." ”

"Impossible." Xie Fuyi opened his mouth and said, without hesitation!

Old Lady Xie looked at him: "My initial reaction was the same as yours. However, the emperor put all the evidence in front of me, and the piles pointed out that Gong Liang was the person who was placed by the emperor's eldest grandson next to the third highness. ”

"Evidence? What is the evidence? Xie Fuyi still didn't believe it.

Old lady Xie said: "Gong Liang and the emperor's eldest grandson only saw correspondence. ”

"Letters and letters can be faked." Xie Fuyi was even more sure of his previous judgment.

Old lady Xie said: "I also know, so I didn't believe in these at first, until the emperor ......."

"How is the emperor?"

"The emperor called out the emperor's eldest grandson."

Xie Fu Yi was stunned: "Have you seen the emperor's eldest grandson?" ”

Old Lady Xie nodded and said, "I saw it, it's in the imperial study." ”

"He confessed?"

"I confessed it very happily." Old lady Xie said.

"But......" Xie Fuyi still didn't believe it, "there is no reason." ”

The eldest grandson of the emperor had no reason to kill Mrs. Xie at all!

Xie Fuyi shook his head and continued: "I think there must be a misunderstanding here. "Look

"The eldest grandson of the emperor really has no reason to murder your mother...... Old lady Xie paused and said: "The reason the emperor gave at the beginning was that it was all a misunderstanding, Gong Liang was disloyal and unjust, he wanted to divide the relationship between the eldest grandson of the emperor and the third prince, and wanted to take the opportunity to annex our Xie family. That's why I did that......"

"It's too far-fetched." Xie Fuyi shook his head and said bluntly, "Gong Liang is dead, and there is no proof of death, it all depends on the emperor's mouth." ”

After hearing this, Old Lady Xie looked at Xie Fu Yi with satisfaction, nodded slightly, and continued: "So, later, the emperor said the real reason why Gong Liang did this......

"He wanted to ...... during this time Force me out. Old lady Xie said.

Xie Fu Yi's eyebrows jumped, this reason sounds quite sufficient!

Old lady Xie is in retreat all year round, no one is seen, the young lady and aunt of the Xie family were "miscarried" at the beginning, Xie Xianxian was sick, these are not trivial matters for the Xie family, but Old Lady Xie did not show up.

Until......

Mrs. Xie was poisoned.

"Why did Gong Liang do this?" Xie Fu Yi asked rhetorically, "In addition to the emperor's eldest grandson, there should be another person behind him!" That person is the one who killed the mother! ”

God looked at Xie Fuyi, paused word by word, and said slowly: "Regarding this matter, the emperor did not find out, he said that he was also surprised by Gong Liang's death." ”

"How is that possible?" Xie Fuyi spat in his heart, "Nonsense! He frowned and said, "The emperor will never do such a thing to startle the snake." ”

If he didn't know Gong Liang's real behind-the-scenes people, how could he remind the third prince that Gong Liang was disloyal, according to his old fox temperament, he should be like Xie Fuyi, putting a long line to catch big fish.

"The emperor said he didn't know, but he didn't know." Old Lady Xie said, and couldn't help sneering, "Even if I roll around in the imperial study, he won't tell the truth." ”

Saying that, Old Lady Xie paused and continued: "I think...... The eldest grandson of the emperor is a little eccentric. ”

"Grandpa, I'm sure it's not the emperor's eldest grandson." Xie Fu Yi thought for a moment and said in a low voice.

Old Lady Xie looked at Xie Fu Yi with some differences, as if he was surprised why he was so sure.

Xie Fu Yi couldn't explain to his grandfather that he was reborn, let alone explain the involvement between him and the emperor's eldest grandson in his previous life.

Xie Fu Yi pursed his lips and said, "I know the emperor's eldest grandson...... He's not that kind of person. ”。

Old lady Xie was noncommittal, and listened to Xie Fu Yi continue.

"The emperor's eldest grandson, although the city is quite deep, but his bones are very affectionate and righteous, he will not target the Xie family, let alone ......" Xie Fuyi said here, paused slightly, and continued, "What's more, I am with the emperor's eldest grandson...... Privately, still friends. ”

"Are you friends with the emperor's eldest grandson?" Old Lady Xie was a little surprised, "When?" ”

Xie Fu Yi bowed his head and said, "Not long after I got married......"

At that time, he was reborn, because he had experienced his previous life, so he knew who was the winner of the Yujing game in the end, and Xie Fuyi did not hesitate to create an opportunity to contact the emperor's eldest grandson.

"I know the emperor's eldest grandson." Xie Fuyi said, "He is friends with me, based on this alone, he will not use this way to come out than you, if he really wants to see you, wouldn't it be faster to find me directly?" ”

Old Lady Xie sighed slightly, and said slowly: "Yes, I also believe that he didn't do it, he was just used......"

Xie Fu Yi paused slightly.

"However, you just said that he was strange......" Xie Fu Yi couldn't help but say.

"He's really weird." Old Lady Xie thought about the situation when he saw Xiao He just now, and sighed softly, "However, I now understand why he is weird." ”

As he spoke, he looked at Xie Fuyi: "Because, you are friends." ”

Xie Fuyi didn't understand what Old Lady Xie meant for a while.

Old Lady Xie continued: "When he was in the imperial study, he talked to me, and I always felt that Xiao He seemed to have something to tell me, but what he said was really vague...... I didn't understand it for a while, but now that you say that, I know. ”

"What did he say?" Xie Fuyi asked.

Old Lady Xie couldn't help but recall the scene when he saw Xiao He in the imperial study before.

…………

…………

"Xiao He, you come out." When the emperor put the evidence in front of Old Lady Xie, this Ninety-Five Venerable also knew that he couldn't convince this old stubborn man of his age.

So, he made a last move and called Xiao He.

Xiao He's face was calm, and he walked in front of the old lady Xie.

"Xie Lao." He bowed his hand to the old lady, and the juniors greeted the elders.

Old lady Xie looked at him, he was not very familiar with Xiao He, if he insisted on saying it, he had also seen him when Xiao He was a teenager, and now ten years have passed, the boy has grown into a young man, and the facial contours have changed a lot, and the old man is not sure for a while: "The emperor's eldest grandson?" ”

"Exactly." Xiao He bowed his head, neither arrogant nor humble.

Old lady Xie nodded slightly, although his appearance has changed a little, but the person in front of him should be Xiao He, the eldest grandson of the emperor is the same as more than ten years ago, the same politeness, but there is more calmness.

"You come and tell Old Xie about the matter between you and Gong Liang."

"Yes." Xiao He turned around, thanked the old lady head-on, and said unhurriedly, "Gong Liang is the person I put next to the third uncle, and I want him to ......."

He paused for a moment and continued: "First, to protect the safety of the third uncle, and second, to tell me about the third uncle's situation, I am not in good health and can't often visit the third uncle, so I dragged Gong Liang to help me take care of the third uncle." ”

Old lady Xie: "......"

It was the first time he had heard someone say "Eyeliner" so justifiably, fresh and refined.

"I admit it, Gong Liang my people." Xiao He continued, "However, I don't know anything about what he did, and if the emperor hadn't told me, even I would have been kept in the dark." ”

Speaking of this, Xiao He paused and continued: "If I knew that Gong Liang was going to do this, I would definitely stop him!" Mrs. Xie is innocent, how could I hurt an innocent woman? ”

Old Lady Xie looked at him and didn't speak.

The emperor behind the imperial case spoke: "Xiao He, tell the truth!" If you do, you confess your sins! If not! Old Xie will not wronged you. ”

"I didn't do it." Xiao He said, staring at Old Lady Xie more intently, "I can swear that if I hurt Mrs. Xie and do such an evil thing that hurts heaven and reason!" Just let me ...... Come to a sticky end! ”

…………

…………

Old lady Xie looked at Xie Fuyi: "At that time, Xiao He swore in front of me, saying that this kind of thing was hurtful to heaven and reason, I was a little weird at first, but now it seems that if you really kill your friend's mother, isn't it an evil thing that hurts heaven and reason?" ”

Xie Fuyi said: "Xiao He is reminding you of his relationship with me. ”

Old lady Xie said: "It seems that yes." ”

"When you came out, Xiao He ......" Xie Fu Yi paused, "Still left in the palace?" ”

Old Lady Xie nodded, looked at Xie Fuyi thoughtfully, and said, "The emperor's intention is to let him kneel in the palace to reflect on his mistakes. ”

Xie Fuyi listened, didn't speak for a long time, and fell into deep thought.

Old lady Xie looked at him and didn't speak again, he just sat on the Taishi chair, closed his eyes and didn't say a word, waiting for Xie Fuyi to speak.

After Xie Fuyi was silent for half a pillar of incense, he suddenly looked at Old Lady Xie: "Grandpa...... I...... I understand your hard work. ”

Old lady Xie asked knowingly, "What painstaking work?" ”

"You told me everything you encountered in the imperial study, but you never came to your conclusions......," Xie Fuyi said, "You're waiting for me to make my own judgment, right?" ”

Old Lady Xie was noncommittal, just nodded imperceptibly, and asked rhetorically, "So, what judgment conclusion did you come to?" ”
