Qiao Yihuan took it quickly, and then I don't know what method she used, she hid behind her, and she couldn't see the shadow of the wooden box anymore.

And Yue'e's face was flushed, in front of so many palace maids and eunuchs, Ji Zongyu's disdain and distrust made her feel a sense of self-esteem. And the source of all this, she thinks it is Lin Yuan!

"Let's get out of here." Lin Yuan urged Ji Zongyu. Let's just say that this wooden box is something hidden by the person who set the fire, but who is not sure that the other party only put this one thing, or go out and send the emperor away first.

Ji Zongyu nodded, then walked outside.

Lin Yuan and a group of palace maids and eunuchs also followed with their heads down.

No one noticed that Qiao Yihuan didn't raise her feet at the end, but walked a few steps away from everyone, and then disappeared in the shadows of the warehouse, but it was only a moment, and she quickly followed everyone.

When Ji Zongya saw the two of them, his face was obviously a little inquiring, and his eyes scanned the two of them to see what was abnormal.

"How did you two little ones get into it? What if the fire gets bigger again. Ji Zongya pretended to be concerned, and his purpose was to ask why the two of them went in.

Lin Yuan was stunned suddenly, she figured out the matter before, and immediately shouted for Yue'e to come out, so she rushed in by herself, many people present saw this, and the emperor knew it if he had the heart to investigate, so she couldn't lie.

A bunch of thoughts rushed through her mind, she thought about it for a while, and immediately rushed ahead of Ji Zongyu and replied, "Return to the emperor." It was the folk girl who was afraid of a resurgence, and when she saw Yue'e and they had been in for a long time, she hurried in to call them out. Prince Yu was worried about the comfort of the people's daughter, so he also followed, everything was too hasty for the people's daughter's lack of thought, and asked the emperor for forgiveness. ”

This reason should be reasonable, at least the emperor didn't say "what if the fire gets bigger again".

When Ji Zongya heard this, he really didn't show a look of disbelief, but he still looked inquiring.

"Is that so?" Ji Zongya asked rhetorically, and everyone's lowered heads subconsciously drooped lower.

Concubine Jiang also broke away from the queen's entanglement at this time. stepped forward and said reproachfully. "What nonsense, how worried am you two running in like this? How worried is the emperor? Not next time. ”

Lin Yuan and Ji Zongyu hurriedly responded, "Yes." ”

"Did the concubine let people go in to count the treasury?" Ji Zongya was not fooled by Concubine Jiang. Pulling back the topic, he asked. After that, he didn't wait for Concubine Jiang to reply. He stared at Yue'e and said, "What's missing?" ”

This is not the time to make a fuss, Yue'e replied with a mouth. "Back to the emperor, there is no shortage."

Ji Zongya didn't answer, but his eyes suddenly flashed, and his voice was calm but he asked clearly, "What's more?" He heard Ji Zongyu's words to the palace maid and eunuch clearly, and it was not difficult to associate at this time.

Lin Yuan and Ji Zongyu's hearts jumped, even if Ji Zongyu had ordered it just now, but who knew if there was an internal response from the arsonists in this group of palace maids and eunuchs.

However, Yue'e should be reliable.

The attention of the two subconsciously shifted to Yue'e's body.

Yue'e has been with Concubine Jiang for many years, and she was only stunned for a moment when she heard the words, and then replied with a normal face, "Back to the emperor, the slave didn't find anything more." Even if the emperor found that there was an extra wooden box, it was not easy to investigate, and the wooden box was not found by her. And she said this only because she didn't discover the mystery of this wooden box, but it was about Lin Yuan, and she didn't want to help more.

However, how could Ji Zongya be so easy to fool?

As soon as he swept his gaze, he stretched out his hand and pointed, impartially pointing to the palace maid who had found the wooden box earlier.

"Say, what's in the storeroom?"

When the palace maid asked Ji Zongya if there was anything more in Yue'e, she was already shaking like chaff, which was particularly conspicuous among the palace maids, Ji Zongya pointed to her at this time, and she almost sat on the ground without being shocked.

She replied tremblingly, "If you go back to the emperor, slave maid...... The slave maid ...... "She stammered and never dared to deceive the emperor, and her eyes involuntarily drifted to Ji Zongyu.

The answer is clear!

Concubine Jiang felt remorseful in her heart, she was afraid that Ji Zongya would find out the power she was operating in the palace, so she had always not placed people in Cining Palace, who knew that today she lifted a stone and hit her own feet, and the people around her were unreliable, what else could she plot.

And Lin Yuan's heart was cold, she still found out too late! If she had figured it out before the emperor came, perhaps this wooden box would have been found and put away by her a long time ago, rather than by this palace maid.

"When the emperor asked, he answered well, what are you doing like this?" Ji Zongyu gritted his teeth and scolded the palace maid. He hoped that his previous warnings would bear fruit.

But the palace maid was already trembling with fear, and when she was scolded by Ji Zongyu like this, her feet suddenly softened, and she fell to the ground.

"The emperor is gracious, the emperor is gracious......" she didn't think about it, and immediately kowtowed and pleaded guilty.

The rest of the palace maids and eunuchs who were originally in the treasury and also knew about it also knelt down without hesitation.

Looking at the subordinates who were kneeling all over the ground and Ji Zongyu and Lin Yuan who were standing in it, Ji Zongya laughed.

He didn't speak, but that's it, Lin Yuan and the three of them were even more flustered.

What to do?

Lin Yuan was anxious, she felt that she couldn't think of a way to be peaceful even if she wanted to break her head.

She couldn't guess what was in the box, but it must have been something harmful, otherwise why would the person who set the fire go to such a great length?

The box is on Qiao Yihuan's body, but it doesn't matter who this box is on, the emperor gave an order, even if they don't hand it over, someone will naturally come to search their bodies, and it will only be more embarrassing at that time.

And no matter how good Qiao Yihuan is, it is impossible for her to escape from this heavily guarded palace with a box.

How can this box disappear in front of the emperor?

"Don't worry."

Suddenly, an extremely soft voice sounded in Lin Yuan's ears, and Lin Yuan was dazed for a moment, thinking that he was too nervous and hallucinating.

However, Qiao Yihuan's next actions confirmed that she had indeed heard.

"Back to the emperor, what is extra in the treasury is this box. It's just that after asking the emperor to take a look, don't make this thing public. Qiao Yihuan took a few steps forward without being humble or arrogant, and handed over the inconspicuous wooden box.

Ji Zongyu was in a moment when his liver and gall were broken, and he almost couldn't help but burst out to grab the box, he didn't expect that he was extremely relieved to hand over the box to Qiao Yihuan, and the other party actually handed it over to Ji Zongya!

However, Lin Yuan coughed lightly and told him to stop for a while.

He looked at Lin Yuan quietly, only to see the other party wink at him twice, and then although he was still puzzled in his heart, he also understood that Lin Yuan knew about Qiao Yihuan's actions.

Now that Lin Yuan knows, what Qiao Yihuan did will naturally not be a betrayal. (To be continued.) )
