Chapter 154: A Beautiful First Encounter

Chapter 154 A wonderful first encounter

Author: Willow leaves in winter

Xin You's eyelashes trembled slightly and she nodded: "No, Aunt Xin gave birth to a son, and they grew up together."

Seeing the surprise in He Qingxiao's eyes, she twitched her lips: "Master He doesn't think he calls Aunt Xin the Queen, right? Although his mother is Aunt Xin's maid, Aunt Xin never has a condescending attitude, and neither does he."

Only when I grew up did I know Aunt Xin’s true identity.”

"That prince——"

Xin You interrupted He Qingxiao: "Master He, just call him Mr. Xin. Aunt Xin has long abandoned her identity as the empress, and Mr. Xin doesn't care about being a prince after knowing his life experience."

He Qingxiao followed the good example and changed his title: "Were Mr. Xin in the valley when the accident happened?"

"No, Mr. Xin happened to be out."

"Then I-"

He Qingxiao wanted to ask, Mr. Xin escaped because he went out, and how did I survive? But looking at the girl's cold eyes, she swallowed the words that came to her lips.

Originally, what he wanted to know was the identity of the victim in the valley and the circumstances of the prince. As for the rest, it was just a curiosity that everyone had.

You don't need to think about it to know that it is definitely her deepest pain. Why should he expose her scars?

"Have I seen Mr. Xin after the accident?"

"I haven't seen him again, and he doesn't want to see him again. I just hope that Mr. Xin will be well and nothing will happen to him."

Speaking of that, Xin You looked deeply at the man in front of her: "Master He, are you looking for Mr. Xin?"

He Qingxiao did not hide anything: "He denied the order to find survivors."

Based on the behavior of the people in Guchangbo Mansion, he speculated that the young man might have survived, but it was not confirmed until now.

"After finding Mr. Xin, what are Master He going to do?"

He Qingxiao frowned unconsciously: "If Mr. Xin is the Queen's son, then he should be the only legitimate prince of Great Xia——"

"So Master He will report whether the emperor is there?"

"In his position, he will seek his own government."

"Then why did Mr. He not report what he discovered to the emperor?"

"There is no evidence to confirm the identity of the victims in the valley, and there is no evidence to identify the perpetrators of the Guchangbo Mansion. Regarding the Queen, Concubine Shu, and Prince Qing, it is not appropriate to report rashly." He Qingxiao said frankly.

Apart from anything else, if he sent people to keep an eye on King Qing's ancestral home without any basis, Keke would be severely beaten by Concubine Shu.

Although he is not the Jinlin Guard who serves as the emperor's eyes and ears, King Qing is not the emperor's preferred heir. Coupled with his embarrassing background, one careless move can lead to disaster.

"Moreover, he wants to talk to Miss Kou first and hear what I mean."

Those first words made Xinyou's tense expression slightly relieved.

"Just now Mr. He mentioned that there is no evidence that Gu Changbo Mansion is the perpetrator, does that mean that Mr. He actually doubts them?" Xin You asked tentatively.

She didn't know how wrong Mr. He would be if she confessed.

"The people from Guchangbo Mansion went to Wanyang and have been operating outside the area centered on the valley."

"Are they looking for Mr. Xin?" Xin You asked blurtly.

Those who traveled south with Chang Liang have not returned yet, so they are indeed looking for her.

Fortunately, she could not show off in men's clothing when walking outside. People outside the mountain who knew about my mother's existence would think that she was her mother's son.

The people sent by Gu Changbo probably learned of her existence some time after the operation, so they stayed east to look for her and sent Chang Liang back to Beijing to report the news.

The reason why Xin You was so judgmental was because no one was ambushing her when she returned to the valley, so she successfully buried her mother and the others.

If those people knew that there was Mr. Xin before they moved their legs, they would not make that kind of mistake.

"Master He has talked with him, what are you going to do next?"

"What are your plans, Miss Kou?"

With him speaking frankly first, Xin You was also ready to show some sincerity.

It should be said that at that point, does she need his cooperation?

"Master He also said that it is not appropriate to retaliate rashly. After all, those people have an extraordinary weight in the emperor's heart. What if it's the other way around?"

"in turn?"

Xin You quietly rubbed her cold leg fingers, suppressing the pain in Dong's stomach, and said calmly: "If the emperor takes the initiative to check Wanyang's side and orders Lord He to investigate, wouldn't it be logical?

"

He Qingxiao's eyes were filled with surprise.

What does Miss Kou mean? Is there a way to make Huang Zai take the initiative to notice it?

"If not, it would be natural."

Even if there is no conclusive evidence by then, what he has discovered now can be used as information for a new investigation and reported to the emperor.

Sometimes, the evidence does not prove the most important thing. What the emperor will do depends on which one is more important in his heart, the empress or the king of Qing.

"He has a way, but it will take some time."

Despite that guess, He Qingxiao raised his eyebrows when he heard Xin You say it with certainty.

Xin You looked at him, with pleading in her clear eyes: "Master He, can you wait for a while?"

"How long?"

"Years ago."

He Qingxiao couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips.

She seems to like to resolve things years ago.

And now, it's already November, so of course he can wait.

"good."

After hearing his agreement, Xin You looked more relaxed: "Master He, do you have any questions?"

He Qingxiao hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly: "Very much."

Xin You waited for him to say that he was going east, already having a guess in his mind.

Master He is asking if he is the real Miss Kou, right?

Sure enough, I heard him ask: "How did I become Kou Qingqing? Where is the real Kou girl... buried?"

Xin You had expected the first question when she got it wrong, but was surprised when she got the second question wrong.

It’s not surprising that Master He speculated that Kou Qingqing was no longer alive, but why did he think she knew where Kou Qingqing was buried?

Yadong was puzzled, and Xin Zhutuo answered the first question: "No, he wants to be Kou Qingqing, but people from the Shaoqing Mansion came looking for him and thought he was Kou Qingqing."

His eyes fell softly on her face.

Xin You raised her leg to brush her cheek and smiled: "It's an unbelievable coincidence. It's really his face, and it's not a deliberate disguise to look like Kou Qingqing."

She and Kou Qingqing are at least eighty similar.

Now that I think about it, how much the people in Shaoqing's mansion must have ignored Kou Qingqing, so the eight-point statue can be used as a ten-cent statue.

He Qingxiao nodded unconsciously.

What a coincidence indeed.

He wondered if she could disguise herself as Kou Qingqing so that she could establish herself in that identity.

Xin You also thought of that and asked: "Master He asked him where Kou Qingqing was buried. Did he think he saw the dead Kou Qingqing and then disguised herself as her?"

"Is there any such speculation?"

Xin You pursed her lips and asked, "Master He, wouldn't you doubt whether he would kill Kou Qingqing instead of Kou Qingqing?"

He Qingxiao quickly realized: she was angry.

He paused and said frankly: "He is not that suspicious. When he first met Miss Kou, he smelled the smell of corpses when he approached, which means that the deceased whom Miss Kou approached has been dead for some time."
