Chapter 36: Jade Ruyi 1
Chaxiangju business is very good, and the guests are full.
Suddenly, a group of menacing soldiers broke in and surrounded Cha Xiangju. Seeing so many soldiers rushing in, the guests panicked, got up in a hurry, and fled. Liuniang Qing'er stood there in a panic, for some reason.
I saw Li Mao walk in with a proud face, as if he was prepared.
"You all listen well to this prince! Give this king a good search! Don't let go of anything! Be sure to find out for this king! ”
The soldiers saluted and responded.
"Yes! Little Prince! ”
The soldiers began to search the tea fragrance house, the table was overturned, and the tea bowls and tea utensils were shattered.
Looking at the broken tea vessel on the ground, Liuniang mourned, as if it was not the tea vessel that was broken, but the heart of Liuniang.
Liu Niang didn't know why, and stepped forward in fear, "Little prince! I don't know what we did wrong? Where did you offend the little prince? Please raise your noble hand! Little Prince......"
Li Mao faced Liuniang sideways, tilted his head, raised his chin slightly, and looked proud.
Li Mao said angrily, "On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival tea banquet, we lost a jade Ruyi in the Shu Wangfu. It was given to my father by the emperor. This jade Ruyi is a tribute from the Bi Kingdom, and there are only three in total. The emperor rewarded the concubine with one, and my father with one, and the remaining one was stored in the treasury. But after the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, my father's jade Ruyi was gone. ”
Liuniang asked in horror, "The jade Ruyi of the Shu Wangfu is gone, what does that have to do with our Chaxiangju?" ”
Li Mao's domineering and unreasonable attitude. looked at Liu Niang sinisterly, "But, that night, someone saw your maid from the Tea Fragrance House walking around in the backyard. You said that the maids of your Chaxiangju are not good at doing their part, they don't stay where they should be, they break into the backyard of Shuwang's mansion, sneaky ......" said, glancing at Qing'er with a sinister and vicious expression.
In an instant, Qing'er shivered coldly.
Liuniang heard that Li Mao suspected Chaxiangju and suspected that the maid of Chaxiangju had stolen Yu Ruyi. Liuniang feels that disaster is coming from the sky! This is a big deal, it's not a joke to get involved, and it involves some tribute. Oh, my God! Liu Niang was scared when she thought about it.
Liu Niang hurriedly explained, "Yu Ruyi? Little prince, I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding in this. It is a great honor for us to be appreciated by King Shu. Our girls in Chaxiangju are all doing their duty, and it is impossible for them to do such a thing. Besides, even if we are given great courage, we will not dare! ”
Li Mao smiled sinisterly, "Don't dare? I see that the girls in your tea fragrance house are not simple! The sinister eyes glanced at Qing'er.
The leader of a soldier reported to Li Mao.
"Back to the little prince! The subordinates didn't find it! ”
Li Mao was arrogant and smiled slightly, "Really?" Since the front yard is not searched, then search the backyard! Give this king one by one, inch by inch! ”
"Yes! Subordinates obey! ”
The leader of the soldiers ordered, "You guys will continue to search me in the front yard!" You guys search the backyard with me! With that, he led the soldiers into the backyard.
The thought of more things to be broken, and the thought of spending more money to add them, Liu Niang felt terrible.
Qing'er saw that Li Mao was coming at her. In that case, how can I stand idly by?
Qing'er stepped forward, "The folk girl sees the prince!" May I ask you, little prince, don't you think it's against the royal law to trespass into the people's courtyard and destroy people's property with such fanfare? As a dignified prince, why do you want to provoke the people's resentment so much if you don't let go of the love of your subjects? ”
Li Mao stepped forward and looked at Qing'er with disdain, "Wang Fa? You remember to me that this prince is the king! Turning his face to the searching soldier, he said, "Give me a good search!" ”
Qing'er looked at Li Mao so presumptuous, "Dare to ask the prince, how can you be so sure that Yu Ruyi is in our tea fragrance house?" Does the prince have any special evidence? ”
Li Mao smiled sinisterly, his eyes staring straight at Qing'er, "That night, someone saw someone sneaking around in the backyard of our Shu Wangfu. If someone didn't have the heart to be a thief and stole the jade Ruyi of our palace and was timid, then why should he be afraid of people seeing it. ”
Qing'er saw that Li Mao deliberately targeted herself, anyway, she was innocent, and she didn't allow him to insult herself like this.
Qing'er was not to be outdone, "That night at the Mid-Autumn Festival tea banquet, the palace invited so many guests, relatives of the emperor and the country, civil and military officials, it can be said that people come and go. It seems that the prince only saw someone walking around in the backyard, and did not see the fact that someone took jade Ruyi. Can the folk girl say this: The prince is framing Chaxiangju! ”
Li Mao smiled sinisterly, "Framed? Do you think that your tea fragrance house is worthy of being framed by this king? ”
As he spoke, he saw the leader of the soldiers running from the backyard, cautious. Holding a green Ruyi in his hand, crystal clear. Busy presented to Li Mao.
"Little prince! Do you think it's this one? ”
Liuniang stood there stupidly, unable to believe the facts in front of her.
Qing'er's heart trembled slightly, it seemed that it was a false accusation and a frame-up. No wonder Li Mao had a prepared expression.
Li Mao had a very satisfied expression, "Yes!" That's great! It was really the jade Ruyi that the emperor rewarded his father with! Glancing at Qing'er with angry eyes, "Say, where did you find it?" ”
The leader of the soldiers saluted, "Back to the little prince!" The subordinates are in the third room in the backyard, and Yu Ruyi is hidden in the cabinet. ”
It was her own room, and Qing'er didn't feel sudden at all about this result. When Li Mao looked at him insidiously, Qing'er already knew that she would not be able to escape this ending.
Qing'er stepped forward, "That's my room!" The little prince is really prepared! ”
Liu Niang was frightened, didn't believe the result in front of her, and hurriedly stepped forward, "Little Wangye! This must have been deliberately framed by someone. It wasn't the Qing'er girl's doing! Please be gracious! Little Prince......"
Li Mao raised his head, raised his hand slightly, and motioned to the soldiers, "Take it away together!" ”
"Yes!" The soldier stepped forward and grabbed Qing'er, Liuniang.
Qing'er saw this domineering and sinister Li Mao, and even Liuniang was arrested. Since he came at himself on purpose, he couldn't let Liuniang suffer unnecessary pain with him.
"The little prince is really wise! In this case, let's be honest, this jade Ruyi was indeed stolen by the people's daughter! It seems that such a wise and wise little prince is ready to arrest innocents today. It's funny! It's sad! ”
Liuniang was grateful and said sadly, "Qing'er ......"
Li Mao glanced at Qing'er and saw that his goal had been achieved, "Don't take this thief girl away yet!" ”
"Yes! Little Prince! ”
The soldiers let Liuniang go and escorted Qing'er away.
Li Mao looked satisfied and walked in front with a swaggering look.
When Qing'er left, Liuniang was sad and helpless. Ying'er pulled the corner of Qing'er's clothes and cried, "Sister Qing'er, Sister Qing'er......"
Yujuan looked triumphant and happy
