Chapter 279 She won this round
Qiao Wanyan stood on the stool and looked back at him.
Qiao Jibai whispered: "If you don't have the confidence to win with one strike, you will only end up getting yourself into trouble if you try."
Qiao Wanyan glanced at Qiao Yihuan who was standing at the main entrance in the distance, then got on the carriage and returned home through the back door.
Instead of going back to Yongning Pavilion directly, he asked the servants in the mansion where his father was. After knowing the answer, he ran straight to the study.
When Qiao Wanyan arrived, a servant happened to come out, nodded to her, and left quickly.
"Daddy." Qiao Wanyan walked into the study and called out.
Minister Qiao immediately raised his lips and smiled, his voice gentle and doting, "Why is our Yanyan here? Didn't you say you were going to buy rouge today? Have you bought it?"
Qiao Wanyan knew that her father must be in a bad mood at the moment, but no matter how big the matter was, he would always put on a smile and calm down, showing his best side to himself and his mother.
"How does Daddy plan to deal with this?" Qiao Wanyan got to the point in one sentence.
Minister Qiao also knew immediately that the child knew about it, "Yanyan, be good, let Daddy handle this matter, don't worry. Daddy is here, and he won't let you get involved."
It was impossible for Qiao Wanyan not to be worried. When she thought about the story in the book where her father and mother died because of her, she felt uneasy.
Holding Minister Qiao's hands with her jade-like hands, Qiao Wanyan said softly, "Daddy, no matter how you deal with it, please don't kill Qiao Yihuan, okay?"
Minister Qiao was slightly stunned, seeming a little surprised.
After a moment, he smiled, raised his hand and scratched her little nose, saying lovingly: "Our Yanyan is a kind-hearted child, Daddy will listen to you."
Qiao Wanyan did not follow his words, "Daddy, please don't fool me. Qiao Yihuan has put you in the spotlight and may even be implicated by court officials. Even though it's hateful, I beg you, daddy, please don't kill Qiao Yihuan!"
Qiao Wanyan's tone was light but extremely weighty, and her beautiful eyes were filled with solemnity and seriousness.
Minister Qiao nodded slightly, "Daddy will do whatever Yanyan says."
Qiao Wanyan frowned and shook off his hand, "You're lying! If you don't listen to me, I will never talk to Daddy again."
Minister Qiao immediately changed his expression and coaxed, "Okay, okay, daddy will definitely not touch her!"
This girl is becoming increasingly difficult to fool, she is worthy of being his daughter.
Qiao Wanyan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although her father was a civil official who didn't know any martial arts, he was definitely not a soft-hearted person.
He acted cleanly and efficiently. The fact that he killed Qiao Yihuan's mother was enough to prove that if his father had decided to kill someone, he would have sent someone to do it quietly.
Anyone can kill Qiao Yihuan, but Daddy and Mommy can’t!
She wants her father and mother to live well and watch the day when she becomes the crown princess or even the queen mother!
"Your mother doesn't know about this yet. Go and talk to her. Dad has to go to the main entrance right now."
Qiao Wanyan nodded slightly. She had always believed that her father was reliable and had great trust in his abilities. But now that she knew Qiao Yihuan was the daughter of the Heavenly Dao, she felt a little uneasy.
It’s just that my mother has always been in poor health. She hurt herself during childbirth, so she has to take good care of herself and not get frightened.
Even though she was worried, Qiao Wanyan still walked towards Qiyun Hall.
At the main entrance, Minister Qiao appeared.
Glancing at the crowd watching from a distance and Qiao Yihuan kneeling at the steps at the main entrance, Minister Qiao approached and asked earnestly, "Yihuan, what are you doing?"
Qiao Yihuan sneered. Looking at his biological father in front of him, the biological father who killed his mother with his own hands, he felt extremely strange.
As for Qiao Wanyan, he always had a smiling face whenever he saw her.
Anything you want will be delivered to you, and you can clean up any mess you make.
She knew clearly that the Crown Prince liked her, and she knew clearly that Qiao Wanyan wanted to use her to win the Crown Prince's attention, but she still acted as if she knew nothing and indulged her.
On the other hand, I have suffered so much injustice and now I am secretly sent out of the city to get married.
If I don't make a fuss today and enter this mansion obediently, I'm afraid I'll never be able to turn things around and will never be able to escape the clutches of these cold-hearted people. I can only accept my fate.
"Doesn't the father know what his daughter is doing?"
Minister Qiao sighed helplessly, "I really don't know what you are making a fuss about. Your mother died of leprosy, and she was cremated directly for fear of infection. How could it be possible that I sent someone to kill her? There must be a reason for killing someone. Tell me why I wanted to kill your mother, a weak woman who was unable to even lift a chicken and had been recuperating on the farm for many years?"
Qiao Yihuan held the dagger tightly, and after a moment of silence, she asked, "This is my daughter's question today. I want to know why my father wanted to kill me."
Qiao Jibai, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked, "You believe that it was your uncle who killed your mother, but you can't figure out why your uncle killed your mother. Even the government wants evidence, so what evidence do you have? Just your mouth?"
Qiao Yihuan: "My mother is buried at the foot of Xunhui Mountain. If you don't believe me, you can open the coffin and perform an autopsy!"
The crowd gasped. In order to convict his biological father, he had to open his own mother's coffin?
This, this is simply treason and I am unworthy of being a son.
Qiao Jibai listened indifferently to the voices that were lowered but still reached this side. His deep peach blossom eyes looked at Qiao Yihuan who was kneeling on the ground, and a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes.
Proving yourself is the first step to being at a disadvantage.
He wants to use public opinion to sentence others to death, but he has no ability to control public opinion.
Qiao Yihuan stared at Minister Qiao's expression, trying to find any trace of panic or uneasiness on his face.
But for a long time, nothing happened.
He just looked helpless and disappointed.
"Kid, why are you doing this?"
Qiao Yihuan had a bad feeling in her heart, and a look of helplessness flashed across her eyes. She hoped that someone would come to help her and help her say something.
However, there was nothing else around except the voices of people talking in private.
Qiao Yihuan felt like a thorn in her side. Could it be that her father was so calm at the moment because her mother's body had been replaced long ago at the foot of Xunhui Mountain? Otherwise, how could he be so calm?
If this is the case, then it would be useless even if we opened the coffin and performed an autopsy.
As cunning as a fox!
Just as Minister Qiao was about to speak, Qiao Yihuan's hands were one step faster than his brain and he quickly cut his wrist with a dagger.
Suddenly, blood oozed out, shockingly.
There was a scream from the crowd.
Qiao Yihuan endured the pain and said loudly: "Father has been an official in the court for many years. I know that I am not good at speaking and cannot defend him. But as a daughter, I have to seek justice for my mother. I am willing to die to prove my innocence!"
It doesn’t matter, you won’t die!
She won this round!
