Counterattack on the palace: the daughter is very happy

Chapter 176 Witness Testimony
"En." Xia Lingfeng was obviously fooled again, nodded his head, and expressed his agreement with He Yuqing's words, there are some things that must be clarified.

Because I care, I have to get to the bottom of it, Xia Yunran thought, after all, there are calligraphy and paintings, rumors, these clues, and He Yuqing has kept his backyard in good order for decades-at least on the surface. She still has a foundation of trust.

Even though, just now because of the incident of confessing relatives with blood, he had a grudge, but it didn't prevent him from wanting to know Su Zilan's emotional belonging and whether she was loyal or not.

"Yunran, Lei'er, although this matter is not your fault, it is closely related to you. Even if the result is unsatisfactory, Prince Jing's Mansion will not do anything excessive to you." He Yuqing recovered within a short time She has become the demeanor of being a housewife, "What Yun Ran said just now, it's really not right for someone to die with a stick or not to die."

"Yes, Yunran knows his mistake." Xia Yunran immediately admitted his mistake, and then asked, "What does my concubine want to say, just say it, the calligraphy and paintings just now, and the confession of blood, are suspected of my mother's misconduct Behavior. In addition to these, if the concubine mother has any evidence, she can show it, and it is not appropriate to bother to collect and hide it."

Xia Yunran's patience was indeed exhausted, and he didn't want to continue talking, and he spoke very directly. These words made Xia Lingfeng look at He Yuqing twice more - bothering to collect, this means that He Yuqing did not discover it by accident, but It's been planned for a long time.

"Because it is related to the heirs of the prince's family and the reputation of the prince, I did visit and inquire for a long time after discovering these calligraphy and paintings." He Yuqing did not evade, and said methodically, "Because when sister Zilan was still alive, I heard After some rumors, I paid attention."

"Mother, please tell me." Xia Yunran nodded.

"Sister Zilan once had a childhood sweetheart, and the two grew up together. They can be said to be childhood sweethearts." He Yuqing said slowly, as if telling a story, "That man has been pursuing Sister Zilan for a long time, but later, Sister Zilan I chose to marry the prince, and that man's family fell at that time, and the family left Liangcheng without knowing where to go."

How artful these words were said, as if she was implying that Su Zilan was originally interested in that man, but later the man ran out of money and disappeared again, so in desperation, she chose to marry Xia Lingfeng.And Su Zilan may not have married Xia Lingfeng because she liked her, He Yuqing's words were too harsh.

It's a pity that Xia Yunran has never been in contact with Su Zilan. She doesn't know what kind of person she is, and she can't make any excuses or comments on her unborn things. She can only keep silent about He Yuqing's clever words.

Taking a peek at Xia Lingfeng's expression, he found that he was just silent and not angry at all, at least this paragraph hadn't touched his back.

"It's just that later, one year before you were born, sister Zilan suddenly said that there was a big brother who grew up very poor and wanted to help him." He Yuqing continued, "Although I don't know the details, this man should be that man." A childhood sweetheart who grew up with Sister Zilan."

"Then did she help him?" Xia Lingfeng asked, almost as soon as He Yuqing's words fell, he opened his mouth.

"I'm looking for someone in Liangcheng who is a good brother with sister Zilan's childhood sweetheart. They have a good relationship, and they won't tell lies. They just objectively tell what he knows." He Yuqing is now confident, "I will tell him Please come, and ask him to help find the whereabouts of Zi Lan's childhood sweetheart."

"Call him." Xia Lingfeng frowned and said directly.

"Mother Xu, go ask Liang Yiwen, Mr. Liang." He Yuqing instructed the old lady who just came in with her, and explained to Xia Lingfeng, "His name is Liang Yiwen, and now he has set up a private school in Liangcheng to teach students. He is a gentleman .”

Liang Yiwen came up, dressed in a green shirt, looked very elegant, he really looked like a scholar, with the demeanor of a gentleman.

"Caomin has met Prince Jing and Concubine Jing." Liang Yiwen saluted respectfully, "I heard from the princess that I came here from Liangcheng specifically to find out the whereabouts of my brother Ping."

"When did you say the last time you talked with him?" He Yuqing asked directly without any politeness.

"About 16 years ago," Liang Yiwen recalled, "he said he escaped from his father, saying that his father had gone mad, in order to be able to live the former high-spirited life again. He was miserable, scarred Tired, but he didn't say what exactly his father did."

covered in wounds?escaped?Xia Yunran was surprised. On that day, Zhu Xiping said lightly that his father had done something bad to him and his brother, but he didn't say what it was. He didn't expect that such a bad thing would leave him with scars up?

"At that time, my younger sister also saw him. My younger sister was troubled and thought of the relationship between Brother Ping and Zi Lan, so she sent someone to Hengfeng City to tell Zi Lan." People from the palace came to pick up Brother Ping, but there was no trace of Brother Ping after that."

"Is that person called Zheng Chengping?" Xia Lingfeng asked quietly after Liang Yiwen finished speaking, "Liang Cheng used to be famous as a genius, Zheng Chengping, but after his family fell into ruin, there was no news of him anymore. Yeah?"

"Yes, yes, that's him." Liang Yiwen nodded.

Oh, it seems that Zhu Xiping is just a pseudonym, not his real name. Xia Yunran wondered if his real name was Zheng Chengping... No wonder no one knew that shopkeeper Zhu was the same person back then after so many years.

"I know him." Xia Lingfeng lowered his head, his voice was very deep, "I know that he and Zilan are childhood sweethearts, but I didn't expect Zilan to have contact with him later... Did he take him to Prince Jing's mansion? I didn't know , For so many years, I didn't even know..."

"Mother Xu, send Mr. Liang to the wing to rest first, and then bring Uncle Wei up." He Yuqing had more than one witness, "Uncle Wei was the one who served Sister Zilan once, the prince should remember him, right? Sister Lan is also loyal, and he doesn’t know how to arrange for Sister Zilan. I found out that it was Wei Bo who went to pick up Zheng Chengping.”

Wei Bo came up quickly, he was an old man with dim eyesight, probably in his sixties or seventies, his face was full of wrinkles, after meeting Xia Lingfeng and He Yuqing, and under He Yuqing's questioning, he narrated what happened to him at that time: "At that time, I went to Liangcheng to pick up Zheng Chengping. The former princess placed him in an inn in Hengfeng City and raised him for two or three months. During that time, didn’t the former princess say that she would return to her natal home for seven days? In that inn, she takes care of Zheng Chengping herself."

Alright, this sentence was like a depth charge, and Xia Lingfeng was provoked.

"Ha, take care of it myself... Hahaha, I went back to my mother's house, stayed at the inn for seven days, and was with a man, hahahahaha..." Xia Lingfeng laughed, filled with sadness.

Xia Yunran began to feel uneasy. Wei Bo didn't seem to be lying, and he was a loyal person beside Su Zilan. After saying this, it really seemed that Su Zilan and Zhu Xiping had entanglements. day……

Moreover, Su Zilan did not hesitate to deceive Xia Lingfeng for the sake of Zhu Xiping. The matter was serious. How sure was Zhu Xiping of being able to calm Xia Lingfeng's anger and resolve all of this?

Xia Yunran even began to wonder if Zhu Xiping and Su Zilan had an affair?
