The Concubine of a Famous Family: Reborn as a Empress

Hearing He Qixiong's voice, He Yan immediately walked out of the crowd, bowed to He Qi and Qin's Yingying, and replied: "I don't know what crime my daughter has committed, please tell my father clearly."

"I don't know? There was a fire in your room last night, but why did you and your girl Xiaoruo escape, but there were two corpses in the room?"

He Qixiong only received the news from the housekeeper this morning, saying that two male corpses were found in He Yan's burned-out room.It was about the innocence of the daughter's family, and the housekeeper didn't know how to deal with it, so he could only tell He Qixiong about it and ask him to make a decision.

"Two corpses? My daughter doesn't know what's going on." He Yan said innocently, with a frightened expression on her face when she mentioned the corpses.He Qixiong also didn't believe that his daughter would do such an outrageous thing as murder.

So he went on to say: "Tell me about what happened last night in detail. If this matter has nothing to do with you, I will naturally make the decision for you."

"Yes, my daughter knows." Then, He Yan told what happened that night.

He Qixiong was puzzled after hearing this, and asked, "You mean you don't know what's going on? The fire was already on fire when you woke up, and it was Xiao Ruo who woke you up?"

"Yes, father, the fire was already on fire when I woke up. Xiao Ruo took me out in a hurry. Yan'er didn't know that there were those two people in her room. Yan'er was also very strange. Why? Those two people will appear in my room." He Yan knelt down, with a puzzled look on her face.

He Qixiong continued: "Where's the maid who was on duty in your room last night? Ask her to come up and answer."

After hearing He Qixiong's words, Xiao Ruo came out from behind, knelt down and lowered her head. "You maidservant is so rude that you don't even say hello. I think this house is getting more and more unruly." Qin picked up the tea on the table, took a sip and said in a toneless manner.

Xiao Ruo felt that she was causing trouble to her young lady, and wanted to speak anxiously, but she couldn't make a sound when she opened her mouth.

"Father, mother, you don't know that this girl can't speak because she was sick when she was young and her voice was broken." He Yan explained to He Qi and Qin Shi.

"Why is there a dumb person around you? Madam, you can pick two maids for Yan'er and send them to the room some other day. This little maid can't speak. If she always stays by Yan'er's side, it's useless to let people see. Made a joke about my Shangshufu.

Qin Shi was worrying that she would not be able to place someone beside He Yan, so she would not refuse the opportunity at this time.Quickly responded: "It's the master, I'll take care of it as soon as I get down."

"Father, Yan'er doesn't know whether to say something or not."

"Come on."

He Yan nodded, and then said: "Father, the fire in Yan'er's yard is really weird. How could my yard catch fire? Yan'er and Auntie have just returned home, so they shouldn't have anything to do with it. It's a feud between people. Why don't you investigate the identities of the two boys first, and see if you can find any breakthroughs. What do you think?"

He Qixiong nodded and said: "What Yan'er said is very true, why don't you just investigate the identities of those two people. Steward Wang, go and investigate the identities of those two people, and then check to see if anyone is missing from the house. Is it a servant from the house?"

Steward Wang stepped forward and said to He Qixiong: "Master, the identities of the two servants who died in the second lady's room are already known. They were the servants in the third lady's room. And they said that the arson matter has some clues. In the room of the two of them, many bags and gold and silver jewels worn by the ladies were found, and they presumably stole them from the ladies' rooms."

"Oh? There are other things like this? Bring those things over and let me have a look."

Butler Wang brought up the things he had found in Baolai and Fulai's rooms.He Qixiong opened the bag and saw that there were many girls' jewelry and some loose silver in it.Some of them he had seen at Sanyatou's place, and there were a few things that seemed to belong to the older girl.

"Steward Wang, do you mean that these two people came to Yan'er's room to steal something?"

"Returning to the prince, I think it is very possible. Those two people were very dishonest when they were in the house. It must have been thought of stealing a long time ago. It's just that they were not discovered by others. I think they went to the second lady last night. He stole something in his room, accidentally knocked down the candlestick, and started the fire. The second lady and the servant girl Xiaoruo escaped by luck, but the two of them suffered the consequences of their own consequences and died inside."

Butler Wang's eyes flashed brightly. He has already done all the things his wife told him to do. Presumably, his son will be freed from slavery from now on. When the time comes, he will study hard and get a public opinion, which is also a matter of honoring his ancestors.

Wang Butler's expression fell into He Yan's eyes. This Wang Butler was probably instructed by Qin Shi to come up with such an idea of ​​framing him. I'm afraid Qin Shi promised him some benefits.As expected of the wife of the Shangshufu who has been in charge of the Shangshufu for many years, she can be said to be white even if she is really black.

He Yan admired Qin's ability to turn right and wrong so much.But if He Qixiong really believed Steward Wang's words, He Lanxue couldn't be affected by this plan.what a pity.

"Since the matter has been investigated clearly, then you should disperse separately. By the way, Ma'am, Yan'er's yard has been burned, and it may take a lot of time to repair, but she can't always live in the guest room. Let her change the yard. I think the unused yard in the south is good, and the scenery inside is also good, why not let Yan'er move there."

Qin's goal of protecting He Lanxue has been achieved, and at this time, He Qixiong's request is naturally responsive.She nodded immediately and said: "The concubine is also about to tell the master about this matter. Since the master has already considered it, the concubine will let people go down to prepare later. The master was tired for a long time last night. Going to the morning court, I think I'm already exhausted, why don't I go to rest for a while, and go back to the cage to sleep, so I can wake up more."

Hearing Qin's suggestion, He Qixiong rubbed his forehead and said: "Madam still understands my heart, so go and rest for a while." Know exactly what's going on.While thinking, he walked to a side hall.

After He Qixiong left, Qin Shi also sent everyone away. She was busy last night and this morning and didn't have a good rest. At this time, she also had a severe headache and went back to her room to rest.

Seeing that He Lanxue was not punished this time, He Yan felt a little resentful.Just as she was about to leave, she was stopped by He Lanxue.
