Chapter 1027 Killer Fu Ciyi also used his inner strength to transmit his voice: "Okay, got it." Fu Jiangze said to Lu Wenfeng: "Please ask Lord Lu to return to the original mansion. Lord Lu's mansion has been kept by my prince for you." "Thank you, Your Highness!" Lu Wenfeng was very grateful. After the three carriages traveled together for a while, the Lu family's carriage separated from the Fu family's carriage. After walking for a while, Fu Ciyi ordered Fu Hu to send Fu Nanyao and Fu Beimo back to the palace. Fu Beimo lifted the curtain of the carriage and said, "Brother and sister-in-law, we are back in Beijing. Mother will definitely want to see you. After you return to the palace, you must go to the palace." "Yeah." Fu Ciyi responded lightly. The two cars separated again, one went towards the imperial palace and the other went back to Prince Rui's mansion. Yan Funing saw Leng Feng riding a horse through the window, so she asked Fu Ciyi in a low voice: "But what news did Leng Feng bring?"

"Well, let's go back home first." Fu Ciyi ordered Leng Feng, "Go pick them up quickly." "Yes, Your Highness." The cold wind bit the horse's belly and it galloped away. After Fu Ciyi and Yan Funing returned to the palace, a cup of tea later, Leng Feng arrived with his men. When the servant came to report, Fu Ciyi and Yan Funing were in the room. "Your Highness, Princess, Master Qiao has arrived." "Got it. I'll be there right away." Fu Ciyi said. The servant withdrew. Yan Funing looked at Fu Ciyi with doubtful eyes: "Husband, is Lord Qiao your uncle?" My surname is Qiao, and my mother-in-law’s surname is also Qiao. Probably one family. Fu Ciyi nodded: "It is my uncle. I haven't seen him since I left Beijing." He took her hand and said, "Come with me, okay?" "Okay." Yan Funing nodded obediently and asked softly, "When your uncle came to Beijing, did you send someone to look for him, or did you come to Beijing on orders?" Fu Ciyi did not hide it from her: "I'll send someone to invite him." "The Qiao family is also a well-known family in the capital. After mother and you left the capital, the Qiao family would have been implicated. After I came to the capital, few people mentioned the Qiao family, which shows that the implicated thing really exists." Otherwise, a prominent family would definitely be mentioned often. At least when my mother-in-law was recognized by Prince Jin, someone would have mentioned the Qiao family, but that didn't happen at that time. When my mother-in-law resumed her status as Princess of Jin, the Qiao family did not arrive.

Even though my mother-in-law was canonized as queen, no news about the Qiao family was heard for some time afterwards. You have to know that the Qiao family is the Queen's maternal family. Why no one mentions such a family? The only possibility is that it was suppressed in the past. Fu Ciyi nodded and said calmly, "That's true. My grandparents were so angry that they passed away one after another. My uncle was also implicated and banished from the capital. It is said that he cannot return to the capital without an imperial decree." "But now he's back, and you're the one who sent someone to invite him." Yan Funing couldn't help but worry, "He's going to have trouble getting past our father." Now, the only thing that can bring Uncle Qiao back is the edict from the new emperor. But the emperor obviously didn't know that Fu Ciyi was investigating the incident. Even if he knew, he wouldn't easily issue an edict. Fu Ciyi squeezed her hand and said, "Don't worry, I used the imperial edict from my uncle." "Uncle Emperor?" "Ah." "Before my uncle passed away, he called me over and talked to me for a long time. He knew that the fire incident and my mother's poisoning were my worries, and he wanted to help me resolve them. I took the opportunity to ask for an imperial edict, asking him to agree to my uncle's return to the capital. But because he wanted to investigate the truth of that year, the fewer people who knew about it, the better. So my uncle could only return in secret, and he couldn't report to the court for the time being." "I understand." Yan Funing said softly, "Then let's go see uncle quickly." The couple quickly left the bedroom. In the study room in the front yard, when the couple arrived, Qiao Chen was already waiting. When they saw each other, they were both stunned. The middle-aged man in front of me was very elegant, and his eyes and eyebrows were somewhat similar to my mother-in-law. Perhaps due to the long journey, he had a scruffy beard. Yan Funing knew that the uncle and nephew had not seen each other for many years, so it would probably be difficult for them to get close to each other quickly. Then he opened his mouth and said, "Uncle, how are you!" The girl in front of him called him uncle, and he saw them holding hands... Qiao Chen reacted and bowed quickly: "I greet His Royal Highness Prince Rui and Princess Rui!" Fu Ciyi raised his hand to support him, opened his thin lips slightly, and finally called out, "Uncle." Qiao Chen's eyes suddenly turned red: "Wen Yu is already this old, and he's still alive. That's great, that's great!" Thinking back then, he was the one who put the little man that was burned into charcoal into the coffin with his own hands. As soon as he put it in, black charcoal fell down. He was also buried in that small coffin. Now seeing that his nephew had grown up to be handsome and tall, and had married such a beautiful wife, he was so excited that tears suddenly rolled down his eyes and he quickly wiped them away with his sleeves. If his father and mother knew that their grandson was still alive and well, they would be relieved in the afterlife. "I clearly saw you at the fire scene..." The body was burnt beyond recognition. "Why, Wen Yu, how did you escape?"

Fu Ciyi raised his hand to invite his uncle to sit down, and then he pulled Yan Funing to sit down as well. "I have never told anyone about my escape from the fire. It is better not to tell anyone before the case is exposed to the public." Thinking of what Leng Feng had reported, he asked directly, "Uncle, what happened to the Qiao family back then? What is the matter you mentioned?" Qiao Chen began to recall: "After my sister and you left, the Qiao family was targeted. Father and I were both impeached. Difficult questions came one after another, and the Qiao family was overwhelmed. Father and mother were already greatly hit, and with the impeachment and difficulties, they left one after another. I was demoted and left Beijing, which was considered a good ending at the time. I originally thought that the person who caused all this was the Prince of Jin, so I have been investigating for more than ten years. Later I learned that those people were all the concubine's people, and they all acted according to the concubine's orders. I thought that the concubine wanted to help her niece obtain the status of the Princess of Jin, so she killed you and your son." "What happened back then is closely related to the Concubine Dowager, now the Empress Dowager, but it is definitely not as simple as her helping her niece to obtain the position of Princess." Fu Ciyi said. Yan Funing continued: "I guess there are deeper reasons behind this." Qiao Chen nodded: "I don't know the specific reason, and I'm not sure. But the Concubine Dowager wants to help her niece obtain the status of Princess Jin, which must be one of her purposes. If the deep-seated reason you mentioned exists, then the motive of this old woman is clear." Yan Funing asked: "My uncle originally thought that the murderer was the Prince of Jin. Can I ask why he thought so?" "He keeps saying that he likes my sister, but he has so many women around him. If I don't doubt him, who should I doubt?" Qiao Chen was still very angry when he thought about this. "To be honest, he didn't even dare to look at the 'Wenyu' that was burned to charcoal. I personally gave that child away..." Having said this, tears welled up in my eyes again. Yan Funing let out a long sigh.
