Chapter 1383: The identity of that person can't be hidden anymore
"Since I agree, I will naturally mention this matter to the Emperor. Whether the Emperor agrees or not is a matter for the Emperor, and I have no control over it. Okay, let's all leave." Qin Zhao felt that there was no need to waste any more time.
Everyone's time.
Having said what she wanted to say, she didn't want to listen to the many complaints from these women anymore.
Everyone present was about to disperse when they suddenly heard Qin Zhao say again: "Xu Cairen is staying."
Xu Cairen was a little surprised. She turned back to look at Qin Zhao, but Qin Zhao didn't look at her directly and pushed away the others, leaving only her and Xiao Qingzi.
After the others left Kunning Palace one by one, Qin Zhao asked Xu Cairen to sit down.
"May I ask if your Majesty has any orders?" Xu Cairen asked.
Qin Zhao smiled: "I don't have any special instructions, I'm just curious if you have any other sisters in your family?"
The news that Xiao Linzi found was that Xu Cairen was adopted by the Xu family when he was five years old. Logically speaking, he already had memories at the age of five, so does Xu Cairen still remember that he has a biological sister?
Xu Cairen didn't expect Qin Zhao to ask such a question. She said truthfully: "My parents are healthy and I still have sisters at home."
Qin Zhao suddenly asked her to stay and asked such a strange question?
"As far as I know, Xu Cairen, you were adopted. Where are your relatives before the adoption?" Qin Zhao suddenly asked again.
Xu Cairen's psychological quality was very good, but when Qin Zhao suddenly raised this question, her expression changed.
She opened her mouth, but suddenly she couldn't speak.
Qin Zhao smiled when he saw this: "Is my problem so difficult?"
As she spoke, she looked at Xiao Qingzi and asked, "Xiao Qingzi, is Xu Cairen's family still well before the adoption?"
Xiao Qingzi didn't expect Qin Zhao to ask him. He subconsciously looked at Xu Cairen, but Xu Cairen was immersed in his own thoughts and did not receive his look for help.
"Slave, I don't know." Xiao Qingzi lowered his head and replied.
His immediate reaction was that the young master's identity had been exposed, and the Queen already knew that the young master was working for King An.
If not, why would the Queen suddenly ask the young master this matter bluntly?
"I heard that Xu Cairen's original family was very poor. Is it because of this that he forgot about me, and later became obsessed with wealth?" Qin Zhao said, taking a leisurely sip of tea: "Actually, the reason why I am
I want to show off my cards with you because I want to know the identity of the person behind you."
"I don't understand what the empress is saying!" Xu Cairen opened his lips coldly and finally returned to normal.
Qin Zhao was probably just trying to trick her. This woman didn't have any evidence, so she couldn't be convicted.
Qin Zhao smiled a little: "Of course you know! Mr. Fengyue is a group of people, and you are one of them. Do you think I will have a showdown with you like this when I don't have anything in my hand?"
Xu Cai's heart was in a state of confusion, and she was already in a state of confusion.
Xiao Qingzi was also in a mess. He was Xu Cairen's confidant. No wonder the Queen had left him alone just now.
"I'm sorry for my stupidity, but I really don't understand what the empress is saying." Xu Cairen gritted his teeth, unwilling to be fooled.
She still felt that Qin Zhao was trying to trick her, but every word Qin Zhao said made her tremble.
"If you are five years old, you should have memories, but do you still remember that you have a biological sister?" Qin Zhao suddenly killed Xu Cairen by surprise.
Xu Cairen looked at Qin Zhao in shock, "What, what?"
What did Qin Zhao know? Why did he know that she had a biological sister? But she was given to her uncle as soon as she was born, and she rarely had contact with her biological sister.
But she always remembered that she had a sister who liked her very much and would occasionally visit her and bring her delicious food.
Although she was abandoned by her biological mother, her sister never forgot her, even though she was still young at the time...
"You don't have to doubt that I already know your identity, and I also know who your sister is. If you are willing to tell me who the person behind the scenes is in the palace, I can help you sisters recognize each other." Qin Zhao said softly.
road.
It can only be said that the black hand in the harem is hidden very deep, and she has not found any clues yet.
But with someone like Xu Cairen, he must know who that person is.
That's why she proposed to make a deal with Xu Cairen. No matter whether Xu Cairen was willing to make the deal or not, she would not lose anything.
"This is a win-win situation. You can reconsider and step back." Qin Zhao said and stood up, "Even if you don't cooperate with me, I will find the black hand in the harem in a short time!"
Xu Cairen stood in the main hall for a while before he regained his composure. Seeing this, Xiao Qingzi stepped forward to help him: "My young master, let's go back to Yonghua Palace first."
This is to remind Xu Cairen that this is Kunning Palace, and it is Qin Zhao's eyes and ears. Be careful that there are ears in the walls.
After returning to Yonghua Palace, Xu Cairen finally recovered.
"Xiao Qingzi, what do you think?" Xu Cairen had already dismissed the others, leaving only Xiao Qingzi waiting in front of him.
"The Queen is not bluffing. Now it depends on the young master's choice, whether he wants to see his sister or to protect the master loyally." Xiao Qingzi said.
Xu Cairen sighed and said, "I just didn't expect the Queen to find me so quickly. Seeing the Queen's confidence, I'm afraid I won't be able to hide that person's identity."
With the emperor protecting him like that, Qin Zhao will be able to do anything he wants with half the effort.
If she really has any unfulfilled wish in this life, it should be to see her beloved sister again.
She was abandoned by her mother when she was a child, and later sold to Ren Yazi by her uncle, and later entered the palace and became a chess piece.
She had never lived for herself even a day in her life, and the only person who treated her well was her sister.
"Do you intend to make a deal with the Queen?" Xiao Qingzi asked.
Xu Cairen shook his head slowly: "I'm in a mess, let me think about it again."
In fact, she knew that Qin Zhao had suspected her from a long time ago, and she also knew that her identity would be exposed one day. But she did not expect that on this day when she was unprepared, Qin Zhao would have a showdown with her.
"The Queen is not easy to give to, and I am afraid that the Queen will cross the river and burn the bridge." Xiao Qingzi expressed her worries.
"Step back, I will think about it carefully." Xu Cairen glanced at Xiao Qingzi.
Xiao Qingzi stepped back as he was told, and walked to the door with a sharp look in his eyes.
Having served Xu Cairen for these years, he naturally understood Xu Cairen's temperament. He knew at a glance that Xu Cairen was interested in the deal proposed by the Empress.
It was night, and Xu Cairen couldn't sleep, but he still couldn't make up his mind.
Xiao Qingzi seemed to know that she was awake, so she pushed the door open and brought a bowl of soothing soup: "My little master, if you drink this bowl of soothing soup, you will have a good sleep."
Xu Cairen smiled at him and took the soup bowl: "Fortunately, you have been with me all these years."
Just as she was about to drink the soothing soup, Xiao Qingzi suddenly asked: "Have you made up your mind, little master?"
