"Does the Lin family have evidence that can prove the innocence of Dingguo Gong?" Mu Liancheng couldn't help but be a little curious, "But didn't you go there a few years ago, did you investigate clearly?" ”

"After finding out, I'm sure the reason why my father didn't kill my mother ......" Feng said calmly, in front of Mu Liancheng, she didn't intend to hide anything, "My mother is not dead." ”

"The Duchess is still alive?" Although Mu Liancheng didn't have a big reaction on the surface, he was quite shocked in his heart, "This is really unexpected. ”

Feng Qingfang bowed slightly: "Indeed, it took me several days to accept this fact. ”

After a pause, Mu Liancheng asked, "Since the Duchess of Guo is not dead, where has she been all these years?" Also, why did she cheat to death back then? Does Dingguo Gong know? ”

"My dad didn't know about it at first, but then he probably guessed it, so he didn't allow me to track it down." Feng replied slowly, "As for my mother, she left the capital after she cheated her death and stayed in Lanzhou, but not in the Lin family, but with another man, her childhood sweetheart's lover." ”

Having said this, Mu Liancheng understood, while lamenting that Lin Yitang was ruthless in abandoning her husband and daughter, she had to sympathize with Feng Qingfang.

After a period of silence, he spoke again: "So, you want to go to the Duchess of Guo and ask her to come forward to prove the innocence of the Duke of Dingguo?" ”

"Yes, that's the most direct and fastest way to do it."

"But since the Duchess was able to leave ruthlessly back then, and she didn't show up for so many years, obviously she didn't want to return to her original identity at all, and after the news spread, she didn't make any moves, I'm afraid that even if you go, it's just a trip in vain."

Even Mu Liancheng said the same, and Feng Qingfang's heart was even more bottomless.

"I'm also worried about this, but I've thought about it, whether she wants to come forward or not, I have to bring her to the capital, and I can't let my father lose his life for her willfulness."

That is, she intends to come hard.

Mu Liancheng looked at Feng's light and beautiful side face under the firelight, and gently hooked the corners of his lips.

"But how can you, a weak woman, take a big living person to the capital alone?"

Feng Qing said arrogantly: "Isn't this easy to do? I'll just pay for a few bodyguards. ”

"I'm afraid ordinary dart masters can't do it." Mu Liancheng shook his head and said, "I'm worried that someone will ambush on the way, so I'll send a few secret guards with you." ”

"You're saying someone is eyeing me?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Feng reacted frantically, and the mastermind behind the scenes naturally would not let her rescue Feng Heng.

"Then I still have to dress up in disguise when I go to Lanzhou, so as not to reveal my whereabouts."

Mu Liancheng nodded and said: "In addition, let Qin Luo go on the road with you and protect you closely, whether you can bring the Duchess to the capital smoothly or not, you must remember one thing, your personal safety is the most important thing, understand?" ”

The voice was very soft, and the tone was a little rare gentle, like a pool of spring water slowly flowing into the heart, dispelling all the haze in Feng Qing's heart at once.

"I have already installed someone in the prison of Jingzhao Mansion to ensure the safety of Dingguo Gong, so you don't have to worry about him, just do what you have to do."

He thought of everything, and everything was arranged so thoroughly, which made Feng Qingfang moved, and he didn't know what to say for a while, and finally a thousand words were condensed into only two words: "Thank you." ”

Mu Liancheng said: "I did this to keep my loyal ministers, but there is nothing else, don't misunderstand." However, the smile on the corner of his mouth could not be hidden.

Feng followed his words lightly and said, "I know, but I still want to thank you." ”

In silence, the two looked at each other and smiled.

In the early morning of the next day, before dawn, Feng lightly disguised herself as a man, and quietly left the inn with Qin Luo, and more than a dozen secret guards hid in the shadows, following behind.

At the same time, she also arranged for another female secret guard to disguise herself as her and stay at the inn to confuse the public.

After leaving the city, the group went straight to Lanzhou, the road was non-stop, there was no wind and no waves, and they arrived at Lanzhou City after nine days.

When he entered the city, the sun had just risen, and Feng Qingfang didn't have time to rest, so he went directly to the Lin Mansion.

This time, she came as the third lady of the Feng family, and naturally received VIP treatment, and as soon as she entered the door, she was invited to the hall for tea.

However, she didn't seem to be very lucky today, and not long after she sat down, Lin Yunqi rushed over when she heard the news.

"Yo, isn't this my cousin? What is the wind that is blowing you? ”

Feng stood up frantically and replied with a smile: "I came to visit my grandmother and the elders, and by the way, I also saw my mother." ”

"Then it's really unfortunate that you're here, they're all out, and I won't see you today." Lin Yunqi smirked.

"All out?"

"Yes, my father, second uncle and eldest brother all went to the academy, my mother went back to her parents' house yesterday to run errands, Yun Shu accompanied her grandmother to recuperate in Beizhuang, as for the second brother, he hasn't come back for a long time, only the second aunt is at home, but, if you two don't get along, you shouldn't want to see her, right?"

Feng knew at a glance that the other party was lying and making things difficult for him, but he wasn't too angry, but just retorted: "Isn't it? I just heard from the housekeeper that my grandmother moved back to the mansion half a month ago, how could she still be recuperating in another village? Cousin, don't joke with me! ”

The lie was exposed in person, Lin Yunqi was a little embarrassed, and immediately laughed dryly, and changed her words: "Look at my memory, I am always used to telling others that my grandmother is in Beizhuang, and I forgot that her old man came back half a month ago, fortunately, cousin, you reminded me, otherwise I am afraid that I will have to send someone to run for nothing." ”

Forgot for a while? I believe you have ghosts!

Feng Qing opened the corners of his mouth wildly, replied with a big smirk, and then said: "Okay, then bother my cousin, please go and help me inform my grandmother, I want to visit her old man." ”

"Okay, you have tea here first, and I'll go tell my grandmother about your arrival."

Lin Yunqi immediately turned around and left, while Feng Qingyan sat back down, drinking tea and waiting.

However, after waiting for almost half an hour, I saw half a figure, and even the subordinates who had been courteously entertained before didn't know where to go, and only two people were left in the entire hall, Feng Qingyan and Qin Luo.

"Girl, it seems that Miss Lin didn't go to Mrs. Lin at all, she teased us." Qin Luo said angrily.

Feng Qingfang naturally saw it, originally she thought that she was here, and the news would reach the ears of the old lady sooner or later, Lin Yunqi couldn't hide it if she wanted to, so she wouldn't do such a boring thing, she didn't expect her to be so boring.

"Forget it, don't rely on her to report, let's go directly to the old lady."

So, the two of them walked out of the hall and went straight to the middle courtyard.

Feng Qingfang remembered where Old Madam Lin's courtyard was, so she didn't need others to show her way, and with her and Qin Luo's skills, she successfully avoided the people in the mansion and arrived at her destination unconsciously.

As soon as I walked to the gate of the courtyard, I heard Lin Yunqi's laughter: "Grandmother, didn't you see that the old man was rolling on the ground at that time was so funny, it made everyone laugh out loud!" ”

"You say he came to the door to beg?" The old lady asked.

"Yes, at first, I saw that he was pitiful, so I asked the housekeeper to give him ten taels of silver, and asked him to go back to the countryside to live a good life, and not to come out to beg, but who knew that he was too little, and asked me to give another ten taels."

"I couldn't get used to his greedy appearance, so I didn't agree, but he threatened me, saying that if I didn't give it, I would go outside to spread rumors, frame the Lin family and beat the poor, and ruin our family's reputation!"

"Oh? How could there be such an unreasonable barbarian? The old lady was shocked, "Then how did you deal with it later?" ”

Lin Yunqi said in a proud tone: "Of course I ignore him, our Lin family has always only done good deeds to help the poor people in Lanzhou, and never bullied others, who doesn't know who doesn't know?" How could he have been able to discredit it with a few words? ”

"I'm not afraid of shadows, my cousin did it too right!" Feng clapped his hands and walked in.

Mrs. Lin came looking for prestige, and when she saw that it was her granddaughter who she hadn't seen for several years, she was surprised and delighted, and stood up excitedly.

"Feng girl, why are you here? When did it arrive? Why didn't anyone report it? Quick, come over and show my grandmother! ”

Feng smiled maniacally and walked over, letting the old lady pull her up and down.

"I lost a lot of weight, didn't I take good care of myself? Why is it still a little darker? Was it too much of a rush and didn't pay attention to the sun? Ouch, look at this poor thing, sit down. ”

"You must have read it wrong, not only have I not lost weight in the past two years, but I have gained a little fat, and I have more flesh on my face," Feng Qing said with a wild smile, "It's a little darker, the sun is hot during this time, and it's inevitable to get sunburned on the road, and I'll come back in vain in two days." ”

"Really? That's good, that's good. The old lady pinched Feng's frivolous face, and her joy could not be hidden.

Feng glanced at Lin Yunqi, who was grinding her teeth, and pretended to be angry: "Actually, I arrived half an hour ago, and I sat in the hall for a long time, and those subordinates were really bad, and they said that they would come to report to their grandmother immediately, but they didn't come back as soon as they went, so I had to wait for so long, and I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to see you today, so I came over by myself." ”

"Is there such a thing? It's too much, those who love to be lazy seem to have to be cured! The old lady scolded angrily.

Lin Yunqi hurriedly stepped forward and said, "It's really excessive, grandmother, don't be angry, I'll teach them a lesson!" ”

After finishing speaking, he was about to leave, but as soon as he took a step, he was stopped by Feng Qing: "Cousin, the beggar you just talked about, I also saw it on the street in front of the door when I came, at that time I saw that he was covered with injuries, strange and pitiful, I was afraid that he would not have the money to see the doctor, so I gave ten taels of silver with a soft heart, who knew that he actually got ten taels of silver from you first?" Do you think his injuries are fake? ”
