Chapter 293: Search
At the moment when the words fell, Yuhe, who was kneeling there, was already stunned, and even forgot about trembling, so he could only look at the girl in front of him in disbelief.
Because of the early death of his wife, the girl has been taken care of by her mother, and it is because of this affection that she, as the daughter of the girl's nursing mother, has been the companion of the girl since she was a child, and the girl has always treated her differently from others, although their relationship is that of master and servant, but in private they are like sisters.
But she didn't expect that the girl who used to trust and get along with her as a sister would push her out without hesitation at this time.
"Girl—"
Jade Yiyi's eyes glistened with tears of disbelief, his face was pale, and his lips moved woodenly, as if he wanted to say something more.
But at this moment, Guan Tong, who seemed to be sobbing with his head down, raised his eyebrows slightly silently, and swiped his eyes slightly with a cold and warning light, only for a moment, he actually shook Yuhe there, and the words that came to his mouth were swallowed back in fear.
Guan Tong covered his eyes indifferently, and then raised his head, his face was full of sadness and grievances, and faintly, his body looked much thinner, like a weeping willow in the cold winter, powerless and about to resist the invasion of the cold wind.
Rao's face was full of tears, but he didn't feel embarrassed at all, but had a little more pity for his beauty.
"Your Highness, the concubine really doesn't know about this matter, the concubine loves His Highness, but how could the concubine get His Highness by these means, hurt His Highness's body, and ask His Highness to investigate-"
Guan Tong was almost speechless in the end, but he still straightened his body decently, put his hands in front of him, and bowed deeply.
The hall gradually fell silent, Xiao Yi watched this scene quietly, and Tan Mo silently lowered his head.
"Tanmo. ”
The sudden voice made Tan Mo move slightly, raised his head and looked at Shang Xiao Yi's gaze, and immediately bowed his head respectfully and said, "The slave is here." ”
"Take someone to carefully search the south room and the west hall, and detain the people who are waiting in the hall, no one is allowed to step out of this main hall without my order!"
Tan Mo's eyebrows immediately froze when he heard this, and then he said, "The slave obeys the order." ”
As soon as the words fell, Tan Mo only glanced up at Guan Tong almost imperceptibly, and then retreated respectfully, and when he left the palace gate, he raised his voice: "Someone!"
……
The south room is where the maids of the west hall live, and Xiao Yi is searching the palace of Yuhe and her bedroom.
Guan Tong was still sobbing when she heard this, her pretty face lowered slightly, looking pitiful, but others didn't see it at all, and the corners of her lips were slightly hooked at that moment.
As early as when she decided on this matter, she had already left a way back for herself, and it was Yuhe who went to find this fragrant cake from beginning to end, and it was Yuhe who put the fragrant cake in the smoker, and she deliberately put the rest of the fragrant cake in Yuhe's room.
At this moment, Xiao Yi went to search, it was exactly what she wanted, as long as Tan Mo searched for things from Yuhe, this matter would be decided.
Everything is Yuhe's own decision for her, and she, the master, is at most guilty of negligence, no matter how big the trouble is, she is just the "victim".
Guan Tong's butterfly-like eyelashes moved slightly, slashing across a beautiful arc, and when her afterglow swept slightly to the jade that was kneeling beside her, she shrunk into a ball, and there was only indifference and a little pity in her eyes.
If it weren't for Yuhe being the person next to her, only if she took this crime would not be suspected, and she didn't want to push Yuhe out like this, but she had no choice, and she would give her up if she couldn't bear Yuhe.
Even at this point, Yuhe can be regarded as a reward for taking care of her for so many years.
About half a cup of tea later, scattered footsteps sounded in the outer hall, when Tan Mo bowed and walked in, Yuhe was still kneeling there in a daze, Guan Tong's back was almost reflexively straightened a little, at this moment she has enough self-confidence, even if the city is full of wind and rain, she also has the ability to retreat.
"Your Highness—"
Xiao Yi, who was sitting there, moved his eyebrows slightly, and motioned for Tan Mo to reply, Tan Mo hurriedly lowered his head when he saw this, and saw that Concubine Guan looked determined, and the corners of his lips almost imperceptibly evoked a trace of sarcasm.
"The slave has led people to search the south room up and down, and has not found any forbidden objects-"
In the end, Tan Mo deliberately dragged out his voice for a few minutes, Guan Tong raised his head almost in disbelief, and when he touched Xiao Yi's cold gaze, his hand couldn't help but tighten, and then he covered his gaze without a trace.
"Slave and maid, dare to ask Your Highness, this West Temple-"
Tan Mo's careful voice sounded in the hall, and the corners of Xiao Yi's lips hooked up a hint of playfulness, and almost unexpectedly overflowed a word.
"Check!"
After speaking, Xiao Yi looked at Guan Tong, who was kneeling at his feet, his legs were numb like thousands of pinpricks, and there was a little more gentle consolation in his words.
"The side concubine was born in a famous family, when she knew the stakes of this matter, in order not to be honest and damage her reputation, Tan Mo personally led people to search the West Palace, and returned your innocence, I believe you will not understand. ”
I don't know why, at this time, Guan Tong gradually felt an inexplicable coolness and fear rising from her back, almost unconsciously, she felt that her body had been soaked in an extremely dense layer of cold sweat, and the softer Xiao Yi spoke to her at this moment, the more scared she felt.
"Concubine, concubine—"
Seeing the woman's hesitation, the corners of Xiao Yi's lips hooked up a sarcastic arc, and he said unhurriedly: "Could it be that in this palace of the side concubine, what is there to see in front of you?"
"Nope!"
The woman's voice suddenly sounded sharply, and her words couldn't help but be a little distorted in the trembling, Guan Tong clenched her hands tightly, hiding them under her sleeves, facing Xiao Yi who was smiling at the moment, she almost calmed down, and kowtowed as dignified and generous as before: "Your Highness is wise, and the concubine has no objections." ”
"Good. ”
Xiao Yi praised without hesitation: "The side concubine is really the descendant of the housekeeper, she is reasonable and does not lose her style." ”
When Guan Tong heard this, he tried his best to restrain his trembling body, and weakly accepted this so-called praise, and the next moment, under Xiao Yi's eyes, Tan Mo immediately bowed his head respectfully and said, "The slave is bold." ”
As soon as the words fell, Tan Mo led a few palace people to start searching the hall, and the sound of porcelain furnishings colliding sounded, and each sound fell on her heart like a rusty and blunt axe, making her feel terrified.
Even if she never believed in ghosts and gods, she had to rely on this at this moment, forcibly suppressing the fear in her heart, closing her eyes slightly, her lips together, and silently asking the gods to bless her.
However, before half a pillar of incense was heard, a strange sound was heard inside, and Tan Mo immediately walked out quickly, his face changed slightly.
"Your Highness—"
Tan Mo hesitantly glanced at Guan Tong who was kneeling there, and then said loudly: "This is taken out from a locked locket of the side concubine, you see-"
Almost a thunderbolt fell, Guan Tong's body shook, almost didn't fall, she turned her head over little by little in fear, and when she saw Xiao Yi take the thing, her face immediately sank, and she instantly understood something.
