Reborn to overthrow the throne, I became the new emperor's dark moonlight

Chapter 156 Something Big Happened to the Qiao Family

Yu Tianbao knocked on the door of the Qiao family early in the morning on the third day of the Lunar New Year.

The plump figure was panting, and he said to the doorman, "Quick, tell your princess that this young master has something important to tell her."

Seeing the old doorman's hesitation, he added, "Hurry up, something big has happened to your Qiao family."

The Xinjiang North Army nearby heard this and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?"

The fact that the King of Northern Xinjiang refused to leave the Qiao family had long been no secret due to the publicity spread by some people. Yu Tianbao knew that this was Su Heting's man.

Thinking that the girl he liked was abducted by Su Heting, he was so angry at Su Heting that his teeth were itching, and he even had a bad face towards the Xinjiang Northern Army.

"It's a matter of great importance and urgency, but I will only speak to Princess Chaoyang."

He still hadn't given up on Qiao Xi, so he was unwilling to acknowledge her identity as the Princess of Jiangbei.

The Jiangbei Army did not recognize the fat man, but they saw that he looked anxious. His forehead was covered with sweat in the winter, and the golden beads hanging on his waist were shaking non-stop. It was obvious that his master had just run too fast. So they did not bother to argue with him and ran towards the inner palace with his lightness skills.

Whether the princess wants to come and see the fat man is her business, but he has to report the situation at the door in time.

After listening to the description of the Xinjiang Northern Army, Qiao Xi guessed that the person coming should be Yu Tianbao.

All the noblemen in the capital liked to wear jade pendants around their waists, but Yu Tianbao was different and liked to wear gold beads around his waist.

I just don't know why he came to see me in such a hurry.

Su Heting also knew Tianbao and knew that he was lazy. But he came so early today, so he was afraid that he really had something to do.

Then he took Qiao Xi's hand and said, "I'll go with you."

When the old gatekeeper of the Qiao family saw that the Xinjiang Northern Army had gone to inform Qiao Xi, he did not allow Yu Tianbao to rush in.

Yu Tianbao couldn't run any longer, so he said to the doorman, "Bring me a chair. I'm so tired."

Today is the third day of the Lunar New Year, and people from all over the country got up early to pay New Year's greetings. The dignitaries gathered on Qiaojia Street, and the traffic was very congested.

He thought the carriage was too slow, so he ran straight from the intersection.

Seeing that he was rich, the doorman did not dare to offend him and quickly moved a chair for him.

Yu Tianbao sat down, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and kept looking into the courtyard, muttering, "If it weren't for Princess Chaoyang's matter, who would bother me to work so hard?"

Upon hearing this, the doorman tentatively asked, "Excuse me, sir, what happened?

Ask clearly so I can report it, and the princess might come faster."

Yu Tianbao thought it made sense, so he didn't hide it from him and whispered, "Mrs. Qiao's tomb has been disturbed, the bones are exposed, and there is a naked male corpse in the coffin.

I've left someone there to guard it, and no one else has noticed yet, so you need to go quickly."

Upon hearing this, the concierge was so shocked that he almost fell to the ground. It took him a long time to recover. "Who is so wicked?"

"How would I know?"

His grandmother's health was getting worse and worse. He heard that releasing animals in the first month of the lunar year could bring blessings, so he forced himself to resist the urge to sleep and took the servants to release the rabbits and other wild animals bought from the mansion outside the city early in the morning.

Worried that the nearby villagers would catch the people he released again, he asked his servant to keep an eye on it, and only then did he discover something strange about Mrs. Qiao's tomb.

The remaining Xinjiang Northern Army was about to look for Qiao Xi again when they saw Qiao Xi and Su Heting coming hurriedly.

Yu Tianbao also saw it and stood up quickly, "Princess Chaoyang, something big has happened..."

Qiao Xi raised his hand palely to stop him.

She had profound internal strength, and she heard what Yu Tianbao said to the doorman.

"Thank you, Master Yu. Please help me..."

Confidential.

Qiao Xi closed her eyes and swallowed the rest of her words.

Not only did the other party disturb my mother's grave, but he also found a naked male corpse to humiliate her. I will never let her handle this matter in secret.

I’m afraid that as soon as Yu Tianbao leaves, someone will notice this matter, and it will soon spread throughout the capital.

Su Heting also thought of this and ordered, "Prepare the horses."

Thinking of something, he said, "Let Doctor Lai and Su Que follow as well."

As the two men expected, when they arrived, many people had already gathered around the Qiao family cemetery.

The opened coffin was covered with a cloak. Judging from the circle of white fox fur on the cloak, it should be Yu Dabao's.

Seeing them approach, Yu Tianbao's servant said, "I'm sorry, Princess. The young master ordered us to guard the area, but we didn't expect the wild animals we released this morning to attract the surrounding people. We were unable to stop them."

Qiao Xi was brought here by Su Heting on horseback. She sat high on the horse and could see the situation in the cemetery clearly from a distance.

His blood rushed up, and when he got off the horse, his legs were weak. It was only thanks to Su Heting that he did not collapse.

My mother has been a kind person all her life, but the people behind her are so vicious.

"Thank you."

After Qiao Xi squeezed out these two words from her throat, she could hardly say anything else.

If someone is deliberately doing evil, how can a few servants stop him?

Yu Tianbao was willing to personally inform her of the news and cover up the man's corpse for her to prevent people from pointing fingers at her mother's remains and the man's corpse. She was already very grateful, so how could she blame him?

But why did Yu Tianbao come here? She still needed to find out clearly.

at the moment……

Qiao Xi approached Mrs. Qiao's coffin step by step, with flames burning in her eyes.

She had to let her mother rest in peace first.

Su Heting took a black umbrella from the guard, held it above the coffin, and gave an order, "Come here, clear the area."

The Xinjiang Northern Army immediately divided the work in an orderly manner.

Some asked the surrounding people to leave.

Some placed the male corpse aside.

Some people built straw huts nearby to store coffins.

Some of them dispersed to the surrounding areas to check the situation.

Qiao Xi slowly lifted up her cloak, and a strong smell of alcohol mixed with the smell of decay rushed into her nostrils.

The man had drunk a lot of alcohol before his death.

A drunkard lay in his mother's coffin after getting drunk.

Qiao Xi's hands were shaking violently. She could already imagine what kind of unbearable rumors would spread on the streets of the capital later.

She, the mistress of the Qiao family, would become the topic of conversation after her death. She hated it so much that her internal organs felt like they were being torn apart.

But she couldn't lose her mind. She had to stay calm and think about the purpose behind this matter.

"Xier, Chenshan will soon deliver a new coffin. Then we will bury our mother again."

He put her into Xiaoman's arms and said, "Wait a moment, I'll get the body out first."

Qiao Xi held the edge of the coffin tightly. "Who is it, and why are they doing this?"

Is this to target her, or is it because what she did implicated her mother?

No matter what the situation was, it was all because of her. Qiao Xi knelt down in front of the coffin with a plop, "Mother, I'm sorry, it's my daughter who is unfilial..."

In the secret room of the dark factory.

The emperor slapped Wang Yuan in the face and said, "You are looking for death. I asked you to deal with Qiao Xi, why did you touch the Qiao family's tomb?

People are already saying there's something fishy about Mrs. Qiao's death. Are you doing this because you're afraid people won't know the truth?"

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. Qiao Xi is too cautious, and the King of Jiangbei is surrounded by many experts. It would be difficult for me to assassinate her.

But as Your Majesty said, Qiao Xi can no longer stay. I don't have time to make further plans, so I can only resort to this last resort."

Wang Yuan looked up, his eyes filled with malice, "The coffin is destroyed, and the bones are exposed. As a daughter of the Qiao family, Qiao Xi will definitely bury Madam Qiao's bones herself.

The corpse has been poisoned by my servants. If she touches it, she will surely die."

The emperor frowned.

The method is a good one. With Qiao Xi's filial piety, he will definitely bury the bones himself.

can.

"You should know how Madam Qiao died. What if they believe the rumors and take the opportunity to examine her bones..."

If you meet an experienced coroner, he may be able to see the clues.

How will he end up then?

He has been vague about many of the recent cases, and I'm afraid many people under him are already calling him a tyrant.

If he can't give an explanation for the Qiao family's affairs, the matter will not be easily resolved.

“Your Majesty, don’t worry. That man is a well-known drunkard and womanizer in the area. He used to be an escort when he was young and has some skills.

I have arranged for someone to spread the rumor that Madam Qiao appeared in the drunkard's dream, causing him to become lustful and, after getting drunk, he dug up Madam Qiao's grave, hoping to spend the night with her.

A cold smile curled his lips. "As for the poison in Madam Qiao's body, no matter how capable they are, they can't find it. The person in that coffin is not Madam Qiao at all."

"What do you mean by that?"
