Chang’an Peasant Girl

   Chapter 894 Avoid many detours

"My father and brothers couldn't bear the girl to die with them, so they helped the girl to escape. After the girl escaped, they wanted to find evidence to clear my father's name, but it was too late. Those who helped to testify were all arrested by Tao Shangran's subordinates. After being killed, Tao Shangran also sent people to hunt down Minnu, but Minnu escaped every time."

"However, Tao Shangran's subordinates were negligent and did not kill the steward immediately. When the girl found the steward, the steward was still breathing his last breath. The steward told the girl that Tao Shangran had spent a lot of money to bribe them to do it. They also said that Tao Shangran also let him put the dragon robe in his father's room, but they didn't expect Tao Shangran to cut the grass and kill them."

   "The steward also said that he has correspondence with Tao Shangran, which can prove that Tao Shangran framed his father for treason, but the steward died before he said where the letters were."

   "The girl searched for a long time in the steward's house, but couldn't find any letters."

   "There is no evidence for the girl, and the government is looking for the girl. The girl can only keep her name incognito."

   "There is no way to clear my father's name, the people's daughter can only settle for the next best thing, and kill Tao Shangran to vent her hatred."

   "But Tao Shangran is too cunning, even the people have never succeeded..."

   Seeing Tuoba Yao finished speaking, Xiao Changyi asked again, "Why did Tao Shangran frame your father?"

  Tuoba Yao was silent for a while, and then he said honestly: "Tao Shangran saw the beauty of the people's daughter, and wanted his father to marry him, but his father didn't want to, so he hated it and framed his father and wanted to rebel."

   Immediately, Tuoba Yao gritted his teeth with hatred: "And he was promoted to an official position because of his merit in getting rid of his father, the 'rebel'.

  Xiao Changyi stopped talking, just sat there expressionlessly, tapping his fingers lightly on the wooden tabletop.

   "Your Highness!" Tuoba Yao shouted loudly, and at the same time, he kowtowed heavily towards Xiao Changyi. And there was deep sadness in her tone. "People can't be resurrected from the dead, and the girl only wants her father and the others to rest in peace, not dead. I hope the prince can investigate this matter thoroughly! If the prince can persuade the emperor to investigate this matter, the prince will let the girl die now, and the girl will also willing!"

Quietly felt that Tuobayao didn't seem to be telling a lie, she could feel the deep grief in those words, turned her head, and looked at her family's Xianggong again, saying: "Xianggong, if King Beicheng is really being framed Yes, you should give him justice."

  Xiao Changyi said: "If King Beicheng is really framed, then let the old man send someone to investigate and it will startle the snake. Why don't we send someone to Beisheng first."

  Meng Zhuqing immediately knelt down on one knee, clasped his fists and said, "This subordinate is willing to go to Beisheng and investigate this matter secretly!"

  Tuobayao saw Meng Zhuqing like this, and the heart that was originally injured by Meng Zhuqing's capture was immediately healed a lot.

   Xiao Changyi nodded lightly, expressing his agreement to Meng Zhuqing's request.

   As soon as Meng Zhuqing stood up, Tuoba Yao said, "This is a matter of the people's family, and the people want to go back to Beisheng to check."

   Xiao Changyi was silent.

Seeing that her husband didn't speak anymore, Jing Jing said bluntly: "You are talking about it all by yourself, but we haven't confirmed your identity yet. When it is confirmed that you are really the daughter of King Beicheng, we will release it I'll let you go to Beisheng with Meng Zhuqing. After all, you grew up in Beisheng and you are familiar with it, so Meng Zhuqing can avoid many detours when he secretly investigates."
