   Chapter 273 Qiao Mo's Secret

  Qiao Zhao's hand holding the chopsticks tightened, and his knuckles were faintly white.

   Shao Mingyuan stood up and asked in a deep voice, "What's going on?"

   "I don't know the specific situation. I was guarding outside the palace gate and saw Young Master Qiao being escorted out by the Jinlin Guards, and then went forward to inquire about it. Those people didn't say anything."

   Shao Mingyuan nodded, indicating that he understood.

  Qiao Zhao looked at Chi Can: "Didn't Big Brother Chi say that the emperor summoned Big Brother Qiao to appease the grace? Why—"

   Chi Can put down his chopsticks: "It may be that Mr. Qiao did something to anger the emperor."

   "Shouldn't." Qiao Zhao denied it, seeing that both Shao Mingyuan and Chi Can were looking over, and explained, "I think Brother Qiao is calm and reserved, and won't make Longyan furious because of his rashness, unless—"

   Speaking of this, Qiao Zhao's heart sank.

  Unless eldest brother has something he knows not to say, he has to say it to the present day, and maybe even eldest brother is waiting for today!

   "Xi Xi, I remember that Yang Er was supposed to be on duty in the palace today, right?" Shao Mingyuan asked with a calm expression on his face.

  Yang Houcheng entered Jinwuwei not long ago and was in charge of the palace patrol.

   "Oh, yes, that boy Yang Er is on duty today."

   "Go and invite Young Master Yang, be quick." Shao Mingyuan ordered the guards.

   "Take orders."

   The personal guard rushed out and met Yang Houcheng who was on the way.

  The personal guard jumped up from the horse and rushed towards Yang Houcheng like a big eagle spreading its wings.

   Yang Houcheng was in a hurry to rush to the champion, and he was suddenly attacked and immediately furious: "Where is the little beast with no eyes!"

   As a result, he was dumbfounded as soon as they fought: The little beasts are so powerful!

   "Young Master Yang, our general is invited!" The guard hurriedly explained it clearly, while Yang Houcheng was stunned, he threw him on the horse's back with a force, and then kicked the horse's butt.

   The strong horse neighed and galloped away with Yang Houcheng.

  These well-trained horses know the way, and they rushed to the front of the champion's mansion. They suddenly stopped and Yang Houcheng was thrown off.

  Yang Houcheng almost vomited, he clutched his chest and slowly scolded, "Fuck!"

  Is this what humans do? That bodyguard and this horse are nothing!

   Then, Second Young Master Yang was silent for a while, and finally understood in his heart why even if he was holding Shao Mingyuan's thigh and begging bitterly, no one would take him to play.

   So he couldn't beat Shao Mingyuan's personal guard!

   This realization made Yang Houcheng very frustrated. If he hadn't been in a hurry to see Shao Mingyuan, he would probably have cried and fainted at the gate of the champion's mansion.

   As soon as Yang Houcheng entered, Chi Can raised his eyebrows: "So soon?"

   He remembered that the personal guard had just left.

  Yang Houcheng sighed fiercely: "Don't mention it, I was rushing here when I met Tingquan's personal guard, and that little **** took me directly—"

   Having said this, he felt so embarrassed that Young Master Yang coughed and said, "Give me his horse directly."

   "Chongshan, you should be on duty today." Shao Mingyuan asked.

   "Yes, I came here to tell you that your uncle and brother got into trouble in the palace today."

   "For what?"

"I was patrolling outside, and I don't know the details. I just heard that Mr. Qiao seems to have taken out some account books to show the emperor. The emperor immediately got furious after reading it, saying that he slandered the important officials of the court and ordered someone to break into Mr. Qiao. jail."

   Account book?

   Qiao Zhao's heart suddenly fell.

   So, the big brother didn't tell Grandpa Li the whole thing about the fire at home?

   Does this mean that the fire was not accidental, but man-made?

  If it was man-made, then the big brother must know something, but for some reason, he kept this secret until today...

   Qiao Zhao has no way to complain about his brother's distrust of her and even Grandpa Li, and his brother didn't mention Grandpa Li, which is enough to show that his hidden secrets must be amazing.

  Qiao Zhao looked at Shao Mingyuan.

   Having said that, eldest brother has not disclosed a few words to Shao Mingyuan?

  Chi Can asked Qiao Zhao's question: "Tingquan, what account book does your uncle have?"

   Shao Mingyuan frowned: "I don't know."

   He picked up his uncle and brother from Kou Shangshu’s residence, and they mostly talked about the past. He couldn't help asking about his wife's past, and his uncle told a lot of interesting things about his wife before she left the cabinet.

Only then did he know that when he was fourteen, he quietly followed his uncle to Dafu Temple in order to meet his fiancée, and witnessed the scene where his uncle was sought after by the little ladies. At that time, in an unknown corner, Qiao Zhao, who was also fourteen years old, was also watching all this secretly.

   On that day in that year, they actually saw the same scene, and even had unconscious glances. It's just that he didn't recognize her, and she didn't recognize him either. After all, they didn't meet, but a silent miss.

   The more my brother-in-law talks, the fuller the image of his wife becomes in his mind, but he doesn't mention the fire at Qiao's house, and when he asks, he will change the subject lightly.

   He didn't ask any more questions, and now he realized that his uncle and brother didn't want to talk about it more, not because of the pain and unwillingness to recall, but because of other hidden reasons.

"Your brother-in-law, you really have an idea, and he's hiding it from you." Chi Can sneered, "That's all right, now I don't know why I was thrown into the sky prison because of what happened. Everyone was caught off guard!"

  Qiao Zhao's expression darkened slightly: "Maybe there is a reason that cannot be disclosed."

  Her elder brother is a bright and beautiful person. If he doesn't say it, it means that the secret must be strictly guarded, and he will not reveal a word to either Shao Mingyuan or his ancestral family.

   Qiao Zhao doesn't think Qiao Mo did wrong.

Even if he didn't say anything, everyone would think that the eldest son of the Qiao family had become a waste and would not threaten anyone. His elder brother almost lost his life in his grandfather's house. can't get there.

   Maybe the elder brother was wrong, only the emperor's reaction.

Sure enough, I heard Chi Can say: "You don't know, the emperor's uncle of mine hates the instability of the court and delays his longevity. The account book that Qiao Mo presented to him must be accusing a certain important official in the court. Evidence, maybe because of this book of accounts, there will be great turmoil in the DPRK.”

   Having said that, Chi Can touched his nose and said in a strange tone: "My uncle of the emperor thinks everything is fine now, he hates messing up."

  Everyone: "..." An emperor like this, come and kill a chaotic minister and thief.

   "Forget it, I'll go ask." Chi Can frowned.

   Being friends with this guy Shao Mingyuan is really a big loss, and he has to wipe his uncle's ass. In the future, he must get the money back.

   Chi Can subconsciously glanced at Qiao Zhao.

   Well, ask Shao Mingyuan for more money, so he can marry a wife.
