The next morning, Miss Hua, who shared her maternal love with Baimao Xiaoxue all night, finally met Changshi Qiao.

Qiao Changshi didn't know that the eldest princess and daughter were still talking about him last night. When he heard that the girl was looking for him, he was confused. The girl had never looked for him on his own initiative. Could it be that it was just for the porridge shed.

Opening a porridge shed is a good deed. As the chief of the clerk, Qiao Changshi treats porridge as a big thing every year and never slackens. Who would have thought that something happened this year?

When Hua Jingyao saw Qiao Changshi coming in a hurry, she felt a little disgusted, so she didn't go around in circles and asked Qiao Wenlian straight to the point.

Unexpectedly, Qiao Changshi had been scared from the sudden disaster five years ago. Miss Hua had just said the word Qiao Wenlian, Qiao Changshi looked pale, his lips were twitching, and his throat was full of voice, but he couldn't speak.

Hua Jingyao quickly sent the maid to the kitchen to cook Anshen tea. Qiao Changshi waved his hand, took out a small box from his arms, took out a pill and swallowed it into his mouth. After a while, he finally could say the complete words.

"...Miss, don't blame me. This is an old problem. Your Highness invites the Imperial Hospital to prepare this medicine. Just take one when you have palpitations."

Hua Jingyao touched her forehead. Qiao Changshi had this problem. No wonder the princess's wife didn't remind her. She turned out to know that Qiao Changshi would carry a life-saving medicine with her.

She asked apologetically: "Since Lord Changshi is not feeling well, I won't ask."

"Miss, please ask, otherwise my heart would be hanging, for fear that this matter would fall on me again." Qiao Changshi was almost in tears. He must have been full back then, so he gave the book to Qiao Wenlian. For this reason, Feiyuwei forced his home to be confiscated. If it weren't for the eldest princess as the guard, their Qiao family would have suffered three thousand miles away.

Hua Jingyao laughed. She heard someone telling a story about boots. The people downstairs heard the people upstairs throw their boots heavily on the ground and took off only one whip that day, so the people downstairs waited for another whip to smash it down.

If she didn't ask today, Qiao Changshi would be like the person downstairs.

She said: "Don't worry, Lord Changshi, the case had nothing to do with you. Since this matter was found out, it would not change again. I invite you here because I am now investigating a case for Shuntian Prefecture. Someone happened to be involved in the test case five years ago. So I want to know about Qiao Wenlian. Please recall it. When you think of something, just say it, as long as it is related to Qiao Wenlian, it doesn't matter."

Qiao Changshi finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was asking him to find out the situation, Miss Hua and Feiyuwei were different.

Qiao Changshi thought for a while and said, "Qiao Wenlian is the only son in the family, and his wife is the daughter of a tenant. In his early years, Qiao's mother was bitten by a snake in the field. This girl happened to pass by and saved Qiao's mother. Qiao's mother was grateful and decided to marry the girl into the house. Unfortunately, this girl failed to give birth to a boy. Qiao's mother told Qiao Wenlian to take a concubine when she died. Although Qiao Wenlian agreed, she abides by the ancient saying that she could take a concubine without a son. Until she was a juren, she did not carry her concubine into the house. This matter was once a good story in the local area."

Hua Jingyao thought to herself that it is worthy of being a good story for men not to take concubines when they were young? How low is this requirement for men?

She smiled encouragingly and said to Changshi Qiao: "This matter is very important, think about it carefully, do you still remember anything else?"

The expression on Qiao Changshi's face gradually became clear. He thought for a moment and said, "When Qiao Wenlian just moved out of my official's house, I missed it. I once went to the place where he lived temporarily. It was in a private house in Tieguo Hutong. The house was rented. Qiao Wenlian and his two elders lived there. It was a small courtyard where they entered. There was a jujube tree in front of the yard. The day when I went, an old lady happened to come out of the yard. The old lady didn't look like a serious person. At that time, I was surprised and said casually when I saw Qiao Wenlian.

Qiao Wenlian said that it was the landlord, so the official did not ask any more. But later Feiyuwei went to the house to catch people and found out that the landlord of the house was the owner of Gongyuanqian Street Calligraphy and Painting. I often went to the calligraphy and painting vegetarian. The boss was also a scholar. He was not only good at painting, but also a master of painting rigging. His wife also came from a scholarly family and was a lady from a noble family. When I heard that the house was from his family, I remembered the old woman I saw that day, but at that time, I was tortured by Feiyuwei... Alas, it is better to have less than more things, so I did not mention this matter."

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

"Have you seen the two elders who lived with Qiao Wenlian in that house?" Hua Jingyao asked.

In fact, there will definitely be a case for Dali Temple to investigate the two candidates, but the case for Dali Temple will not let her go to see it casually, so if you can find out from Qiao Changshi, it would be better to ask Qiao Changshi.

"When it comes to those two people, Qiao Wenlian's case is inseparable from those two people, but I have only met one of them. That day, when I went to Tieguo Hutong to visit Qiao Wenlian, I once saw the son named Lang Shi. When I saw that Lang Shi was honest and loyal, I thought that it was a good thing. Who would have thought... Alas!" Qiao Changshi sighed.

"Lang Shi? Is there another person named Meng Xin who lived with Qiao Wenlian back then?" Hua Jingyao asked.

"Yes, of course there is. After the case was released, the people who wanted to arrest the arresting official documents were Qiao Wenlian and Lang Shi, and 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, "So, Lang Shi has not been arrested. Like Qiao Wenlian and Meng Xin, he is still running away?"

Qiao Changshi said: "I don't know whether they have been caught now, but I was on the run."

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

Qiao Changshi said: "That's right, this is Qiao Wenlian's unbearable thing. He knew that the crime he committed would harm his family, but he still had to take risks. Fortunately, he had no children, otherwise he would have really ruined his descendants. His two daughters were married, and the disaster was not as good as them. He just felt sorry for his first wife, who was captured by Feiyuwei and was imprisoned in the imperial prison for more than half a year, and later became an official slave."

Hua Jingyao's eyes lit up and she asked quickly: "Joe Wenlian's wife is an official slave? Did she be in the capital or went to another place?"
