2-210 The dust settles

Everyone has a love for beauty, but all women always like gadgets like fat powder, let alone women in the palace?

In addition, the young emperor is young and vigorous, if he casually looks back, it means that he will become a phoenix once he flies on the branches. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoTherefore, as Lian Li's age grows older, the palace maids from the age of twelve, down to the old palace maids of their thirties and forties, all those who have a little mind can dress themselves vigorously, just hoping that because of that eyebrow and a wisp of incense, they can leave an impression on His Majesty the Emperor.

King Jing took out a pair of jade pendant tablets placed on the plate and sniffed them under Wang Tieqiao's smiling gaze, and found that there was no smell at all.

"That doesn't tell the story. Although King Jing had doubts in his heart, he thought that Wang Tieqiao was just trying to protect Yuanxiang with the benefit of Lian Li.

"I'll excuse you. Wang Tieqiao raised his eyebrows, turned his head and asked Yuan Xiang calmly: "Dare to ask...... Where did the spices come from?"

"This incense powder...... I've heard that it's not a luxury. Yuan Xiang replied resignedly, "Originally, the slave maid asked someone to go out of the palace to buy it every month, but His Majesty accidentally learned that it was ...... It was too troublesome, so he gave the slave maid a gift to go to the medicine workshop of the Taiyi Bureau every month to get the fat powder used by the palace maid, named Jade ......"

"Jade peach powder. Wang Tieqiao had such a profound expression, he naturally took over the conversation, interrupted Yuan Xiang's words and nodded, and said thoughtfully, "About a year ago, His Majesty summoned Weichen late at night to discuss matters, do you remember?"

"It's for...... The night when the military plane summoned the adults for a major event?" Motoka asked tentatively, uneasy.

Wang Tieqiao's deep smile condensed: "Yes, that night, His Majesty urgently summoned Weichen into the palace." But it's not a major military event, but a ...... Girl's incense powder. ”

Hearing this, Yuan Xiang and King Jing were both stunned.

"Nonsense!" King Jing obviously suddenly understood what the so-called "military aircraft incident" was, and was a little more annoyed by Lian Li's willfulness in his heart, and then thought that the person he was annoyed with was already dying at this time, and he felt a little more distressed and annoyed, and his heart was full of sorrow, and his eyes on Yuan Xiang were different.

"Since it is a Weichen deployment, then this smell Weichen is very familiar. Wang Tieqiao explained, let people take the blood-stained torture instrument and gently fan it under the nose and sniff it twice, and continued, "The torture has incense, but the stolen goods have no incense. Dare to ask my father-in-law, where did I find this thing?"

Hou San'er didn't dare to slack off, but he didn't dare to appear in a hurry, so he had to quickly think about his memories seriously, and then replied:

"At that time, I couldn't search the house, and finally found it from the wardrobe of the palace maid Yuanxiang. This thing is hidden deeply, under the second layer of plywood, and the old slave is watching during the search, and no one will do anything. ”

"Your Excellency doesn't know, the wardrobe mezzanine is set up by the Internal Affairs Office, so that the palace maids and eunuchs can have a place to put their personal belongings, everyone knows this mezzanine, even the wardrobe of Father-in-law Hou must also have a mezzanine! This is too many to count! Not to mention that the slave maid has been in the palace for many years with a clear conscience, and there is never a need to use the mezzanine drawer to hide any secrets, how can there be something hidden in it?" Yuan Xiang wailed and defended.

"Since it can't be done on the way, what about before?"

Wang Tieqiao picked up a pearl and handed it to King Jing Liancheng and said: "Women's things are all contaminated with incense, this pearl, inkstone, jade, if you intentionally steal, it is the most dangerous to put it in your hand, why should the incense be placed in the closet? Isn't it deliberately trying to attract thieves to steal?"

King Jing retorted: "The most dangerous place is the safest place, maybe she is holding on to this idea and hiding, thinking that she will not be discovered." ”

"Even so, this theft is long and short for a month, and this pearl is also forgotten, the inkstone and jade pendant are used by His Majesty every day, why do you find out about the theft but don't report it? Why don't you transport it out of the palace? Count it for several months, I'm afraid that a stone can be used for incense, and the yellow mud ink inkstone is most afraid of the invasion of peculiar smells, and why doesn't the silk incense stick? It is clear that someone has only put these things in her closet in recent days!"

His words are well-founded and convincing, but in this way, the spearhead will turn around, and the real culprit of the crime of theft will need to be found.

King Jing finally put aside his suspicions about Yuan Xiang for the time being, thought about it seriously and asked, "Gonggong Hou, you said earlier that the room is occupied by two people, and the other person is?"

Hou San'er was stunned for a moment, and a cold sweat suddenly fell: "Lord Wang, is it ...... It's the palace maid Xiuyu. ”

King Jing's eyes flashed with sudden emotion, but a more strange feeling slipped through his heart. This Wang Tieqiao appeared too timely and explained so concisely, as if he had expected such an encounter for a long time.

That makes sense. Wang Tieqiao nodded and said, "Although the wardrobe must be used almost every day, who would bother to search for anything in it under the mezzanine......

He thought to himself, as if he had a feeling, and in fact, he was saying what King Jinglian Cheng was thinking.

"The palace maid Xiuyu, misconducted, pampered and arrogant, punished into miscellaneous room service, deleted the inner court register, and never entered. King Jing said coldly, his eyes fell on Yuanxiang's trembling back, and he commanded, "Palace maid Yuanxiang, the more you commit a crime, read her heart for the king, punish, one year and one month, and another guard to clean the Taishu Pavilion." ”

As long as Lian Li likes it, what is this trivial matter? King Jing is now afraid that a little bad mood will rush Lian Li's mind, and it will be bad to turn around and get sick again.

After the matter was done, King Jing glanced at Wang Tieqiao with an unhappy face: But according to your wishes, okay?

provoked Wang Tieqiao to be amused, and hurriedly thanked him: "The prince is wise, thank you to the prince." ”

As soon as the words fell, Wang Tieqiao shouted praises, Yuan Xiang was stunned for a moment, and then he was also ecstatic, and quickly cried, and smashed his head again and again to thank him, Hou San'er took the order, and shook his head secretly in his heart:

The chores room is not a good place to stay, if this Xiuyu just enters the chores room, he can still suffer a little loss and fish it out, but the deletion of the inner court household means that he can no longer get close to the Son of Heaven, which is tantamount to a lifetime of miscellaneous errands; ……

Wu Dali strode in from outside the door, almost bumped into Hou San'er who was full of thoughts, and Hou San'er smiled face-to-face, and took a step, the two of them pouted in unison with their backs to back, obviously extremely bad at dealing with people like each other.

"Lord Wang, the person who just took it ......" Wu Dali whispered in his ear, his face full of guilt for messing things up.

After listening to his report, King Jing Liancheng frowned unhappily and said, "What traces have been left?"

Wu Dali muttered two more words in his ear, and King Jing's eyes fell on Wang Tieqiao's body.
