Zhang Qifeng opened her mouth, she looked at Ling Xiao hatefully: "Is my affair with him related to you?"

"Of course it matters, I just said that he wants me to let you go. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Hmph, how capable do you have? You seem to be able to really do anything to me when you say these things, I think it's very simple to get rid of the crime, as long as you don't admit that it has anything to do with the prince's rebellion, the emperor won't do anything to me. ”

"Even if it's a letter written by your father's own hand, can't it do anything to you?" Ling Xiao asked coldly.

Zhang Qifeng had always been afraid that the secret letter would be obtained by the Fan family, and listening to Ling Xiao's tone, she must have found the letter a long time ago. The letters, which she had been searching for for so long and had not found, had become the only physical evidence of her involvement in the rebellion.

Zhang Qifeng smiled bitterly: "I've been looking for it, it turns out that it's in your hands." ”

"Yes, it is indeed in my hands. ”

"I have been asking Xiao Ni to help me find it, and I have been looking for it----- when I returned home that day, my father was not the slightest bit happy, he told the prince that he had recorded everything, and that in the future someone would hand over the letter he had written to the emperor----- and we forced him to hand over the letter, but he just sneered and did not pay attention to what we said. Now that I think about it, he must have found a way to send the letter out at that time to be so calm. ”

"Why do you have to kill people? They have all been poisoned, and they have no ability to resist at all, so you killed unarmed people like this, how can you have a good conscience?" Ling Xiao's voice trembled slightly, "Why is your heart so cold? Don't you have a little nostalgia for family affection in your heart?"

Zhang Qiguan said loudly: "Of course I care about family affection, as long as my father opens his mouth to beg for mercy, even if he says a soft word, I will intercede for him, but ----- he refuses to look at me, Ling Xiao----- Originally, I didn't want to kill him, but he hated me so much, and after hearing that I followed the prince, he scolded me even more." Of course, I can't stand my father treating me like this, thinking that when I was young, he, he was the person who loved me the most. ”

"Your heart is really ruthless -----, Miss Qifeng, according to my original intention, I will never save you, but before ------ got married, I promised the old lady that although you have done too many wrong things, I still have to find a way to take you out." This matter was the last thing Ling Xiao wanted to do, when she thought of Zhang Qifeng's cruel treatment of her relatives, she hated to kill her with her own hands. But a promise is a promise, and she knows that she will never be able to break the promise she made back then, and she will do it no matter how reluctant she is.

"I will never go with you, Ling Xiao, there are two people I hate the most in this world, one is my father, and the other is you!

Ling Xiao looked at Zhang Qifeng with a sad expression, she said softly: "Before I got married, the old lady had already accepted me as a righteous daughter, and I was their daughter, although you refused to go with me, but we are sisters." ”

"Who is a sister to you? My father and mother gave birth to only one of me, and I have no sisters. Zhang Qifeng shouted, "Don't think that my father and mother recognize you as a righteous daughter, you can be on an equal footing with me, I will always be a high-ranking daughter, and you will always be a little girl waiting for me." ”

Ling Xiao was silent for a long time before he spoke: "Whether you are a young lady or a maid, now the situation between you and me is simply a world of difference." You are still in this cell, Zhang Qifeng, I know that you have never looked up to me Ling Xiao, I always think that I will never be able to compare to you, I don't need you to look up to me, I just want you to know that you don't treat me as a sister, but I will always treat you as my sister-----"

"I'm not your sister, you want to be my sister, it's just wishful thinking. Zhang Qifeng screamed.

Ling Xiao's sad eyes kept looking at her, at this time Zhang Qifeng was still immersed in the beautiful lies she had weaved, she refused to admit all this that Ling Xiao said, precisely because she knew very well in her heart that what Ling Xiao said was true, and she could not change it.

"----- since the old lady accepted me as a righteous daughter, I am your sister, my sister ----- what I promised Ling Xiao, I must find a way to do it, you are always my sister, I can't watch you die!"

Ling Xiao walked to the door of the cell, took out a pill wrapped in wax paper from her bosom, she saw that the wood of the cell door was in disrepair for a long time, there was an extremely deep crack, Ling Xiao slowly stuffed the pill into the crack, she pointed to the pill and said: "Miss Qifeng, Ling Xiao hopes that you can remember where this pill is placed, if the government interrogates you in the future, you must find a way to get this pill, don't take it in the cell, you must go out of the cell before you can eat it." ”

Zhang Qifeng looked at the pill in the crack and asked a little strangely, "Is it poison?"

Ling Xiao didn't answer her, she just pointed to the place where the pill was placed again: "I'm leaving, you take care." ”

"Ling Xiao----- don't go!" Zhang Qifeng suddenly stopped her.

Ling Xiao slowly turned around, Zhang Qifeng motioned for her to come forward, and she asked softly, "Is my daughter still alive?"

Ling Xiao also asked in a low voice, "Then do you want her to live?"

"I don't know----- sometimes I want her to get out of the sea of suffering as soon as possible, after all----- she has suffered too much since she came to this world. It's just that I don't want this poor child to die, I want her to have a chance, she can live a peaceful life, and she won't be as miserable as I am in the future. Zhang Qifeng thought of her poor daughter, and her tears couldn't help but flow, "What happened to her now? Is she dead or alive?"

Ling Xiao was silent for a while before replying, "You better ask her personally." ”

Zhang Qifeng shook her head: "Now mine, how can I ask her in person?"

"As long as you ----- find a way to get out alive, you can ask her personally. After Ling Xiao finished speaking, he turned around and left her.

Zhang Qifeng put her head against the prison door, she held back her tears, her eyes looked out of the cell blankly, she felt the pain of losing her freedom for the first time in her life, she didn't want to stay here for a day, although she was in front of Ling Xiao, she didn't want Ling Xiao to save herself, but after Ling Xiao left, she realized that her desire to survive was so strong, she wanted to live, she didn't want to die in this dark and dirty cell.

Thinking of this, she hurriedly looked for the pill that Ling Xiao had stuffed into the crack, and after she found it, she carefully took it out and gently placed it in her sleeve. At this time, she kept every word Ling Xiao said firmly in her heart, she had to do what Ling Xiao said, she couldn't die here easily.

As soon as Fan Yuncheng and Ling Xiao returned to the mansion, Fan Fu hurriedly greeted them: "Master, madam, Lord He has been waiting at home for a long time. ”

Fan Yuncheng and his wife hurriedly came to the front hall, and He Chen was already in a hurry, and when he saw the two of them coming together, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Senior brother, I have a dispute to discuss with you." ”

"Senior brother, please sit down and speak!" Fan Yuncheng knew at a glance that this senior brother was really in a hurry, otherwise he would not have waited in the mansion for such a long time.

"Senior brother, what do you think about Boss Zhang's case?" He Chen asked anxiously.

"Of course, we have to find out. Fan Yuncheng replied with some puzzlement.

"Haven't you already investigated to the end, junior brother? Now that the eldest princess has committed suicide and the prince has been put in prison, are you still not satisfied with the result?" He Chen asked puzzled.

"Senior brother, this case involves a wide range of people, and there are many people under the prince's hands, if you don't find out all these people, there will be many hidden dangers in the future. ”

"Stop it, junior brother, you've stabbed Lou Zi enough, it's time to stop. He Chen said anxiously.

"Senior brother, Yun Cheng doesn't understand what you said at all. Fan Yuncheng really didn't understand why the senior brother wanted to say these words, this case was a critical moment, and the senior brother suddenly didn't let himself investigate it, what was the reason.

"You, what can you do if you find out? Do you think that after those people find out, you will be able to protect the world?"

"I'm going to investigate this case thoroughly, isn't it just for the peace of the world?"

"My good junior brother, there are some things that can't be investigated too clearly, especially the affairs of the court, the affairs of the court and the government are complicated, which can you and I sort out? The emperor said today that he wants you to investigate clearly, and tomorrow he may regret it, blaming you for shaking out the royal scandal, don't you understand?"

"Senior brother, am I still wrong to do my best for the imperial court?" asked Fan Yuncheng puzzled.

"How can you ---- me talk about it before you can understand? There are some things that cannot be explained, let alone thoroughly investigated, you must understand these truths, otherwise the lives of your whole family will not be guaranteed----- He Chen can't go on, this junior brother is good everywhere, but this problem of the key to the end has not changed, some things have been laid out very clearly, but he just doesn't understand.

Ling Xiao, who was silently listening to their senior brother's speech on the side, of course understood this senior brother's eagerness to protect their Fan family, but she knew her husband too well, and what he wanted to do, even if he stopped it, he had to do it stubbornly. It's just that He Chen's words are in place today, their Fan family has been facing a great crisis since Xiao Yuyao committed suicide, and Wei Rui had already told the Fan family about the situation after Xiao Yuyao's death, and at this time He Chen had already thought of this layer, so for the lives of these people up and down the Fan family, she couldn't let Fan Yuncheng continue.

It's just that at this time, in front of He Chen, she can't force Fan Yuncheng to give in, thinking of this, she suddenly said: "Senior brother, a few days ago, my sister-in-law asked me to make two clothes, these days are a little busy, I didn't send them to my sister-in-law in time, Yuncheng, didn't you make a few pens for my senior brother a few days ago? Hurry up and get them for your senior brother." ”

"There's no urgency in this matter, I'm discussing business with my senior brother. Fan Yuncheng didn't understand why Ling Xiao suddenly mentioned the pen, and he said in a little stunned.

Ling Xiao said gently, "Don't you want Senior Brother to use the pen you made earlier?" ”

Fan Yuncheng nodded hesitantly, he didn't understand the reason why Ling Xiao did this, but over the years, he knew that Ling Xiao was doing things bigger than his own ideas, and there must be a reason why she wanted to get the pen by herself at this time. Reluctantly, he walked out of the antechamber with his feet raised.

After Ling Xiao waited for him to go away, he hurriedly came to He Chen's face: "Senior brother, you and I make a long story short, what do you want me to do?"

He Chen had to admire the intelligence of these younger siblings, it seemed that this younger sibling thought better than Fan Yuncheng, he hurriedly said: "This case can't continue to be investigated, and those evidence must disappear." ”

"Senior Brother refers to human and physical evidence?" Ling Xiao asked.

"Exactly, as long as the person's evidence disappears, this case will become a headless unsolved case, naturally it cannot be investigated, the emperor is a person who attaches great importance to family affection, if this case is investigated to the end, it will inevitably lead to more descendants of the Xiao family, the princes are only afraid that they will not be able to avoid these disasters, and then involved, the emperor will be angry with the Fan family under his anger; ”

Ling Xiao nodded secretly, He Chen's thoughts coincided with her own, she thought for a moment, and said: "I can think of a way to prove human evidence, but how to deal with these physical evidence? ”

He Chen thought about it for a while, he suddenly thought of a plan, and hurriedly said, "I have a way." ”
