Dressed like a loser and went to raise a baby

Chapter 682 The Courage

Feng Chengjue immediately sent his housekeeper to find out who had appeared near the stone bridge before and after dark, and then interrogated them one by one.

The palace steward's efficiency was still very fast, and he found all the people who appeared near the stone bridge in just two quarters of an hour.

However, there was one person with a somewhat special status. Before taking the person for interrogation, the housekeeper came to talk to the prince, Feng Chengjue.

At this time, Feng Chengjue was no longer in Bicui Pavilion, and Qin Xueyao had also returned to the small courtyard where she stayed, and was talking to her parents in the small flower hall.

"Is Miss Yin okay?" Mrs. Qin looked at her daughter and asked.

Qin Xueyao nodded nervously, "My life is saved."

"Just save your life." Mrs. Qin nodded and said after a while, she said in confusion, "Why did such a good person fall into the water?"

Qin Xueyao licked her lips before speaking. Yuchun, who was standing next to her, said: "Someone is still harming Miss Yin. The person may have been pushed down."

"Oh my god!" Mrs. Qin exclaimed, "Who in this Prince Jue's Mansion would harm a little girl who has only been here a few days?"

Hearing her mother's words, Qin Xueyao became more and more uneasy.

"Master, the prince is here." The maid walked into the small hall and announced.

All three members of the Qin family were startled. What was the prince doing at this time?
"Quick, please come in, Your Majesty." Mr. Qin quickly stood up and said.

Qin Xueyao seemed to have thought of something, and her expression suddenly changed. She looked around, then looked at Yuchun and asked, "Where is Yuqiu?"

Yuchun was a little confused by the young lady's nervous look, and stuttered back: "She, Yuqiu said she was feeling a little uncomfortable and had gone back to the house to lie down."

Qin Xueyao twisted the handkerchief in her hand, her breathing became rapid, and she prayed in her heart: "Yuqiu, it must not be you."

At this time, King Jue should be busy investigating the person who harmed Miss Yin, but he came here, most likely because the person who harmed Miss Yin is related to the people in this small courtyard.

Yuqiu is the one who has been trying her best to encourage her to compete with the Yin girl. She is really afraid that the person who threatens the Yin girl will be Yuqiu. If it is her, then she will not be able to behave in front of King Jue.

Feng Chengjue led the housekeeper and two maids into the small hall, his face not as gentle as before.

Mr. Qin and his wife saluted, and Qin Xueyao, whose heart was beating like a drum, also stood up and saluted.

"Why are you here, Your Majesty? Your Majesty, please take a seat." Mr. Qin smiled and made a gesture of invitation. Mrs. Qin took a few steps to the side, walked to the first position on the lower left, and took the host's seat.

Fengcheng Jue nodded slightly, walked a few steps forward, and sat on the chair.

Qin Xueyao sat down anxiously along with her parents.

Feng Chengjue's cold eyes swept around the small hall and asked, "Where is Miss Yuqiu?"

Boom, it was as if a thunder exploded in Qin Xueyao's ears, making her ears ring and her eyes dazzled, and she felt as if she was about to jump out of her chest.

There were only two words in her mind, and that was "It's over."

King Jue came to the courtyard at this time and asked about Yuqiu. He was probably inseparable.

Mr. Qin and his wife looked at each other, feeling a little strange, and then looked at their daughter. They were shocked when they saw her daughter's face was bloodless and her lips were pale.

"Xue Yao, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with you?" Mrs. Qin asked anxiously, looking worried.

Feng Chengjue looked at Qin Xueyao, saw her face, frowned slightly, and could not hide the disappointment in his eyebrows.

Her reaction makes it hard not to think that she is guilty of committing a crime.

Meeting his gaze, Qin Xueyao's heart suddenly dropped and she blurted out, "It's not me." But the words she said now, to Feng Chengjue's ears, were no different from "It's me". The look of disappointment in his eyes was even worse.

"Xue Yao, what are you talking about? What's not you?" Mr. Qin looked at King Jue and then at his daughter, who was a little confused. It felt like she and King Jue were playing a riddle.

Qin Xueyao frowned and bit her lower lip. She realized that in Feng Chengjue's eyes, her reaction was self-defeating, and she felt anxious and sad.

In his mind, was she the kind of person who would do things that would harm people's lives?
"Where is Miss Yuqiu? Please come out. I have something to ask you." Feng Chengjue looked away from Qin Xueyao and said in a lukewarm voice.

Yuchun looked at the young lady and then at the master and the old lady. She didn't quite understand what was going on, so she slowly walked out of the small hall.

As soon as Yuchun left, the small hall became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

After about two cups of tea, Yuqiu followed Yuchun into the small hall.

Yuqiu's knees felt a little weak when she saw King Jue sitting in the main seat, with a sense of chill and oppression all over his body.

After learning that the prince knew that someone had harmed Miss Yin and was still searching for the person who harmed Miss Yin, she began to panic and panic, fearing that she would eventually be traced.

After the young lady and Yuchun came back, she also went back to the house to hide under the pretext of feeling unwell. She covered herself with a quilt on the bed and prayed that no trace would be found on her.

But in the end, it was counterproductive. The prince came to the courtyard and asked her by name for questioning.

"Slave, slave, I have seen the prince." Yuqiu Fu bowed.

Fengcheng did not say no, but looked at her with sharp phoenix eyes and asked, "Have you ever been outside Bicui Pavilion before dark?"

"No." Yuqiu denied.

"Have you ever been near the lotus pond when it got dark?" Fengcheng Jue asked again.

"No." Yuqiu denied again.

Denial was just her subconscious behavior. Her heart and brain were now occupied by panic and fear, and she had lost the ability to think.

Fengcheng never asked again, but glanced at the two maids he brought.

Maid A took a step forward and said: "Before dark, I saw Miss Yuqiu appearing near Bicui Pavilion, and she was still running, very fast. Miss Yuqiu was still wearing a pink shirt at the time." After that, Backed away.

Maid Yi took another step forward and said: "When it was dark, I bumped into Miss Yuqiu near the lotus pond. She was walking in a hurry and bumped into my shoulder, but she didn't stop. Then when I walked onto the stone bridge, , and found someone in the water.”

This maid was the one who was hit by Yuqiu when she fled the scene, and she was also the first one to discover Yin Jiaojiao.

Yuqiu's blood flowed all over her body, her face lost all color, and her body was shaking uncontrollably.

She denied every word that King Jue asked, but someone saw her near Bicui Pavilion and Lotus Pond, which proved that she was lying.

And her lying proved that there was something wrong with her.

After hearing this, Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin understood what was going on, and they both looked at Yuqiu in disbelief. How could she be so bold to harm that Yin girl!
If she goes to harm Miss Yin, how will the people in Prince Jue's Mansion miss Xueyao?How do you miss the Qin family?

No wonder Xue Yao said "it's not me". She guessed that the person who harmed Miss Yin was Yu Qiu.

"You, you girl are so brave." Mrs. Qin said angrily, biting her back teeth.

"Boom..." Yuqiu's knees became even more weak, and she collapsed on the ground, making a loud noise.

Yuchun looked at Yuqiu who was kneeling on the ground in surprise. She didn't expect that she would do such a thing on her own initiative for the sake of the young lady.
