I am imprisoned in Kaifeng Mansion

Inevitably, some accomplices pretended to be false, so Han Qi decided to meet this person first, and specifically asked people not to report in advance.

When Han Qi arrived, he was a little surprised to see a middle-aged man in a green official robe sitting in the hall.Then I learned from the little official that this person is Cui Mao, the governor of Shenzhou.

Since he is an official appointed by the imperial court, his identity should not be faked.But officials are also divided into good and bad. It is not clear whether this person is related to the salt transportation map.

At this moment, Cui Mao looked up and found Han Qi, and quickly got up to greet him.He is a sixth-rank official, and this handsome Han Tui official is a fifth-rank official at a young age, so he should respectfully salute his superiors as a subordinate.

Han Qi asked Cui Mao to take a seat with a faint smile, and looked him over.Cui Mao has almost the same eyes as Cui Tao, the only difference is that Cui Mao's eyes are more old-fashioned and rigid; while Cui Tao's eyes are black and white, more lively.

"I heard that Han Tui is both talented and beautiful, and I didn't believe it. Today I saw him and knew that I was more than the rumors. It was a blessing to meet Han Tui, but because of the little girl, I felt ashamed and ashamed." gone."

After Cui Mao finished speaking, he sighed, his face stained with thin anger.He then asked Han Qi what his daughter had committed to be offered a reward by the cloth statue of Kaifeng Mansion.

"Cui Zhizhou is sure that the woman in this portrait is your daughter?" Han Qi asked.

"It's her, unless there are people in this world who look exactly like her!" When Cui Tao was mentioned again, Cui Mao's face became even more angry.

Seeing that Cui Mao had no intention of going into details, Han Qi called Cui Tao over.Let their father and daughter meet, and naturally everything will be clear.

As soon as Cui Tao entered, she saw a green figure rushing towards her.Her right leg was about to move, and she really wanted to go up and kick it, but she stopped it in time. After all, this occasion is not suitable for testing her current martial arts level.If Han Qi finds out that she is good at martial arts, he might worry about her escape and send her back to her original cell.

Cui Tao chose to hide behind Li Yuan cleverly.

Cui Mao stopped in front of Li Yuan, separated Li Yuan, looked Cui Tao up and down angrily, stared at Cui Tao's face for a long time, his arms began to tremble slightly with anger.

"Evil barrier, don't kneel down for me!" Cui Mao suddenly reprimanded.

When Cui Tao met Cui Mao's eyes, she felt an inexplicable sense of strangeness, as if there were many different emotions mixed together, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

"Who are you?" Cui Tao looked at Cui Mao with puzzled eyes.

Cui Mao was stunned for a moment, as if he had just realized Cui Tao's amnesia, and looked back at Han Qi: "She really doesn't remember the past?"

Han Qi agreed.

"I'm your father, come here soon." When Cui Mao said this, he took a deep breath, as if he was holding back his temper and trying to improve his patience.

Cui Tao tentatively walked over, and when she was less than two feet away from Cui Mao, she saw Cui Mao suddenly raised his hand and came towards her.

"My lord, help!" Cui Tao turned her body to avoid Cui Mao's face-slapping attack, and ran to Han Qi's side.

"Help? I'm going to kill you today, shameful thing!" Cui Mao shouted angrily to Cui Tao to come over and kneel down for him to die.

Of course Cui Tao didn't go, she wasn't stupid enough to take the initiative to give away the head.

"My lord, my concubine doesn't know him, so why did he want to beat my concubine?" Cui Tao immediately asked Han Qi pitifully, with an innocent look on his face.

Only then did Cui Mao realize that Cui Tao's 'Master' was not his name.My daughter actually called the young Han Tuiguan an adult!How decent!The strange thing is that the Korean pusher's reaction was very flat, as if he was used to her calling like that?

This... what the hell is this! ?

"Nie Yi! I am your lord, don't be rude and bark, come here!"

"Would it be my lord who scolded and beat me as soon as we met?" Cui Tao questioned endlessly.

"You—" Cui Mao was so angry that he almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

"Does Cui Zhizhou have any evidence to prove that he is my father?" Cui Tao asked again, furious.

Does your father still need proof?Cui Mao was so angry that his face was flushed, and because of his bad breath, he coughed violently.

Cui Tao had already sensed from Cui Mao's behavior and expression that he disliked her very much, and even wished for her to disappear.That's why at this moment, she doesn't care whether Cui Mao is her real father or a fake father. In short, this 'father' doesn't treat him like her own daughter now, so she doesn't recognize it.

She has already died once, and no secular etiquette or filial piety can restrain her.

Only then did Han Qi say: "She has indeed lost her memory as stated in the notice, please ask Cui Zhizhou to explain the specific situation."

Hearing Han Qi's gentle words, Cui Mao was not in a hurry, and finally realized that he had lost his composure just now.He embarrassingly explained to Han Qi that Cui Tao was indeed his daughter. Many people in the family could confirm it. If he didn't believe it, he could immediately send someone to Anping Cui's house to investigate.

"Our Boling Cui family will never lie about this kind of thing." Cui Maoli testified.

Han Qi raised his eyebrows, "It turns out that Cui Zhizhou came from the prominent Cui family."

Cui Mao nodded and told Han Qi that he was from the third house of the Cui family in Boling, and Cui Tao was her youngest daughter.Unexpectedly, three years ago, she left a book and left without saying goodbye.

In the first year, he even sent someone to look for her, but since then there was no news, so he just assumed that she was dead and that there was no such daughter.

A few days ago, he saw Cui Tao's portrait in the Shenzhou border, and some relatives asked him about the situation.Cui Mao then decided to come to Kaifeng mansion to inquire what was going on, and if possible, he planned to take the unfilial daughter back to teach her well.

Listening to Cui Mao's narration, Cui Tao knew that he was avoiding the important ones.If the facts are as simple as what Cui Mao said, she is so well-behaved and excellent, even if she ran away from home suddenly, it would embarrass him.It's been three years since I saw her, so Cui Mao's first reaction when he saw her, shouldn't be the excitement of 'lost and found'?Do you complain when you are sad?

But look at Cui Mao's face full of anger, there is nothing but hatred for her in his eyes, and he can't see any tears.He just wanted to beat her up, to take her home and deal with her severely.

If it wasn't for his status as an official, coming from a famous family, and a pair of eyes very similar to his own, Cui Tao really doubted that he was not his biological father.But these three points cannot be faked, so this one may really be her biological father.

The famous family has always had strict family rules.It's a very embarrassing thing to run away from home, and this father definitely didn't intend to protect her, if he went back with him, he might be tried by the clan members in two days and sent to Shentang.

Those old-fashioned people don't know how to talk about evidence, so compared to the Cui family, Cui Tao still feels more "happy" in Kaifeng Mansion.

It's really going down the coal mine on crutches-every step is unlucky.Why is she so miserable!

Han Qi didn't say what crime Cui Tao committed in the reward notice for the cloth statue, but only said that an important witness in the relevant case accidentally lost his memory and offered a reward to seek his identity.

The murder case of Meng Da and his wife has been judged, and the news that the murderer is Aunt Qiu has also been announced.

The reason why such a reward was placed on the statue was to make Cui Tao's accomplices dare to recognize him, but Han Qi never expected that he would wait for a biological father who was born in the Boling Cui family.

The Cui family of Boling has been a famous family since the Han Dynasty, and the daughter of the Cui family was the object of the scholars in the previous dynasty.Although it has declined a bit so far, it still has a deep foundation and cannot be underestimated.Han Qi has heard a little about how the Cui family raises daughters. In short, they shouldn't have raised a girl like Cui Tao.

Of course, it cannot be generalized, there will always be a special case, after all, this one dared to run away from home back then.

Before Cui Mao came to Kaifeng Mansion, he had already quietly inquired about Cui Tao's situation in Kaifeng Mansion through officials and friends in Bianjing. He roughly knew that Cui Tao was involved in the murder of Meng Da and his wife, but the murderer had already been punished and had little to do with her. .

"Officer Han Tui, I don't know what the little girl has committed? Can I take the little girl home today?"

Han Qi: "She's related to a secret case, so it's inconvenient to say so. But with Cui Zhizhou as a guarantee, it's okay to—"

Cui Tao noticed that the muscles at the corners of Cui Mao's mouth were tensing at this moment, and when he glanced at her, there was a murderous look.

She immediately stopped Han Qi from continuing, "Your Excellency, you should enforce the law impartially. I have serious suspicions, so I should stay in Kaifeng Mansion and wait for investigation."

Comparing with Cui Mao's eyes, Cui Tao suddenly felt that Han Qi's eyes, which always like to shoot indifferent scrutiny, suddenly became kind and lovely.

"Really?" Han Qi smiled, deliberately raised his eyebrows and looked at Cui Tao.

"Yes, yes, of course." Cui Tao nodded.

Cui Mao, who was at the side, was originally relieved that he could take Cui Tao home, but when he heard Cui Tao's words, he became furious, and when he heard that she still called Han Qi an 'adult', he gritted his teeth and glared at him. Cui Tao, scold her for being unruly.

Since Han Qi let go, it means that Kaifeng Mansion has no real evidence to prove Cui Tao's guilt.With his identity as a guarantee, Cui Tao can definitely be brought back.

Cui Mao repeatedly assured Han Qi that the Cui family would take good care of Cui Tao and help the Kaifeng government solve the case.

"If my lord keeps me, I promise to find the murderer who caused the four murdered women to die naked within three days." Cui Tao immediately told Han Qi.

The smile on the corner of Han Qi's mouth deepened, and he was a little curious about what really happened between the father and daughter.Even if Cui Tao lost his memory, he instinctively wanted to stay away from Cui Mao. He would rather be imprisoned in Kaifeng Mansion than go back.

"Looking for a murderer?" Cui Mao looked at Cui Tao as if he had heard a big joke, and suddenly roared, "Don't embarrass me again!"

Everyone in the room was shocked.

Cui Tao's reaction was even more intense. She was so frightened that she trembled violently, stepped back several times, and pressed against the wall.She looked at Cui Mao in fear and horror, her eyes filled with tears in an instant, and she was pitiful like a drowned quail.

"You don't have to be my real father. How can a real father be so cruel to a child! You're not, you're definitely not!"

Seeing this scene, Wang Zhao, Li Yuan and others in the house also felt that Cui Mao had gone too far.Tiger poison doesn't even eat children, and judging from Mrs. Cui's recent performance, she doesn't look like a bad person.Even if she is involved in the case, she may have her own reasons. If she is not involved in the case, then she is even more innocent.If strangers treat her like this, why is Cui Mao, as his biological father, so vicious?

As Cui Tao said, she covered her face with her arms, slid down the wall, and finally squatted on the ground and cried.She cried so pitifully, so helplessly.So much so that Wang Zhao, Li Yuan and others couldn't help looking at Cui Mao with condemnation.

Cui Mao was angry and embarrassed, and didn't know what to say for a while.

Han Qi suggested that Cui Mao might as well go back first, and wait until everything is found out.If Cui Tao is innocent, this will prevent Cui Tao from being rejected by his family when he goes back.If Cui Tao is guilty, it would be more appropriate for her to stay in Kaifeng Mansion.

'Despised by family members', these five words are stuck on Cui Mao's head, which is really uncomfortable.Cui Mao opened his mouth to defend, but realized that his previous attitudes towards Cui Tao had made any explanations from him powerless.

But no matter what, even if he offended Han Qi, he must take Cui Tao back first.

"The case is confidential and will not be disclosed for the time being. Now she is only an important witness of the Kaifeng Mansion." Seeing that Cui Mao's face turned gloomy, Han Qi added lightly.

Cui Mao immediately lost his temper and didn't dare to say any more.

This Han Qi wanted to tell him that if he accepted it now, the Cui family's reputation could be preserved.If he doesn't agree, and the two parties argue, there will be a lot of trouble if the matter is uncertain.

What are the famous families afraid of, the most afraid of their reputation being ruined.

In desperation, Cui Mao had no choice but to thank Han Qi, and described in detail how Cui Tao ran away from home, and then had to leave.

As soon as the others left, Cui Tao removed the arm covering his face, and couldn't help praising Han Qi: "My lord is wise."

"The one who left is your lord." Seeing that Cui Tao was too lazy to pretend in front of him, Han Qi didn't know whether to be happy or unhappy.

"Compared to him, I'd rather the adults be my adults." Cui Tao laughed.

"One ran away from home, and the other hated her. It can be seen that the relationship between your father and daughter is not close. Then you can't help calling the adults every time you are in a hurry. Doesn't it make sense?"

When a person encounters a critical situation, he will subconsciously call out to the most important person to him.But obviously, Cui Mao was not like Cui Tao.

"possible--

The adult the concubine called didn't mean the father, but the mother? "

After all, the term 'adult' generally refers to parents and elders.

Han Qi: "..."

So she keeps calling her mother?
