Chapter 485: For how long
Chapter 485 has been, how long is it
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it is better to choose a more suitable time to talk with Mr. Qiao alone.
"I understand." Xu Mingyi said: "Then let's go back to the city, and I will ask your second uncle to write a letter and invite him to meet at home."
There is no more convenient place to talk than in her home.
Since the decision was made, the two of them left Fengming County without delay.
The city where Wu Chao returned first.
Xu Mingyi went back to Ciling Temple and rescued Uncle Yun Liu from the sea of suffering.
On the way back, I was not hurried or slow. The lady went out to get incense, and there was no reason to rush.
When I returned to the town government office, it was already dark.
Xu Mingyi went directly to Xu Yunyuan before returning to Xiyuan.
As usual, her second uncle should have just woke up from a nap at this hour.
As the so-called spring sleepiness, summer tiredness, autumn lack, hibernation, the four seasons are like dreams-her second uncle has always interpreted this vividly.
"Zhao Zhao is here."
In the study, Xu Yun smiled and said, “Sit down and drink tea, just make the second pot, the intensity is just right for you.”
The light in the room has not yet been lit, he is sitting alone, wearing a clean and refreshing moon-white gown, his hair is fairly neatly tied, and his eyes are clear, not as if he just woke up.
Xu Mingyi faintly felt that his second uncle was a little different from usual.
As soon as she sat down and took a sip of tea, a young man came in and lit a lamp.
"Why are you looking for me?" Xu Yun asked casually while pouring tea soup into the tea bowl.
"I want to ask my second uncle for help."
Xu Yun couldn't help sighing after hearing this, his niece is always so polite.
What please do not please, help or not—
said as if he had the guts to refuse.
"What can be used for the second uncle?"
"I want to see Mr. Qiao Tian Qiao, and I would like to invite my second uncle to come."
"...Joe Tim?" Xu Yun looked at his niece in puzzlement.
Xu Mingyi nodded.
"If the second uncle is convenient, please write a letter." Thinking of the script, Xu Mingyi also has no intention of making it difficult: "If the second uncle feels inconvenience, it doesn't matter, I have another idea..."
Speaking of this, Xu Mingyi's voice turned a corner, paused, and then said: "I have another idea to invite someone."
"..." Xu Yun paused for a moment.
If he read it right, his niece’s mouth shape just now clearly meant to say that he had another idea to deceive people... right?
"It's nothing convenient or inconvenient, but it's just a letter, but you have to tell your second uncle first why you want to see Joe Tim suddenly?"
Xu Mingyi looked at his second uncle, and said, "This is a long story. Does your second uncle want to hear it?"
"Then let the second uncle hear how long it is." Xu Yun smiled.
Xu Mingyi couldn't help feeling that his second uncle was really abnormal today.
For the usual, but whenever there are four long words, it is enough to make the second uncle retreat-if you have this time, wouldn't it be okay to save time to sleep?
But since the second uncle wants to hear, she has nothing to say to her family.
"This matter should start from a secret letter sent from the palace a few days ago by the Queen Empress. The letter mentioned old things related to the former princess Yan. In this old incident, there is a suspicious old man. The old man is the father of Mr. Qiao who should have passed away eighteen years ago. Qiao Bing is the doctor of Qiao—"
Xu Yun was stunned.
"Should?" He keenly caught the key: "As far as I know, the father of Xiuyu's family has indeed gone west many years ago."
Xiuyu is the word from the teacher after Qiao Tian entered Yitong Academy.
"It's hard to tell right now." Xu Mingyi said: "Recently, the queen empress has discovered some strange things in the palace."
After a slight pause, Xu Yun asked, “Is she investigating the cause of death of Princess Yan in the past?”
Xu Mingyi was a little surprised, but somehow felt that she was expecting it. She knew that the second uncle was actually quite sober.
Immediately, she nodded and said: "According to Wu Chao, the empress has been investigating this matter for years."
Always?
Xu Yun held the tea cup with his fingers tight.
She has been very close to her sister, he naturally knows...
"Does the second uncle know anything about Princess Yan before?" Xu Mingyi asked.
Xu Yun shook his head.
"It's just a guess."
If he really knew something, how could he not say it.
In that year, after the former Princess Yan had an accident, he always thought that there must be something strange. He hesitated and decided to write a letter to her in Ningyang to inform her of his suspicion.
He had already thought about it at the time. According to her temperament, he would not do nothing, but he didn’t want to hide this suspicion. He would accompany her to investigate—
But two days after the letter was delivered, he heard the news that she was about to become the new queen.
He wanted to go to Ningyang to find her personally, but was stopped by his father.
After calming down for a few days, he asked the letter to be chased back.
If she really wants to be a queen, then he must not tell her that suspicion, otherwise it will only put her in suffering and danger-it will not be too late to tell her when the turning point appears.
The transferable machine never appeared.
He could not wait for even a word from her.
Until later he learned that the matter was a decision she made herself, not a family oppression.
Thinking about these old things, Xu Yun's eyes lit up slightly.
What does it mean that has been investigating the death of Princess Yan before?
Always, how long is it?
When did she get this thought?
Will it be...before entering the palace?
"This doctor Qiao hanged himself and died, and before the accident, the former Princess Yan's abortion was always the responsibility of this person." Xu Mingyi said: "Previously, it was only when the person was dead and the clues were broken, but now it seems , Maybe there are traces that have not been completely wiped off—"
This trace may be left indirectly by Doctor Qiao.
Or maybe, it’s the doctor Qiao himself.
"I have also faintly heard that Xiuyu mentioned the strangeness of his father's accident several times, but he never said in detail about guessing..." Xu Yun said: "But he will try to lose the list twice. It's strange..."
This is not because he is blindly arrogant for his friends.
The talents of friends, before the test, they were even the kind of promising champion candidates who used to bet secretly in the gambling house.
Oh, he still remembers that after his friend fell out of the rankings twice, Ji Fu Yin quietly found his brother and cried twice.
"It's not just about the former Princess Yan..." Xu Mingyi also expressed his worries about his grandfather.
Xu Yun heard that, with a worried look in his eyes, he nodded and said: "Zhao Zhao thinks very carefully. This matter should be investigated as soon as possible. I will write to Xiu Yu and let him come to Beijing tomorrow morning."
While speaking, he wanted to call Xiaosi to come in and rub the ink.
Xu Mingyi said in front of him: "I will polish ink for my second uncle."
Xu Yun nodded, got up and sat down after the bookcase, and spread out the letter paper.
Xu Mingyi rolled up his sleeves and rubbed his ink. Seeing an unfolded volume on the bookcase, he subconsciously looked intently.
Thank you Lu Qinghan for your reward, thank you everyone for your monthly pass
