Chapter 290: Search
Ji Zongya's face was majestic, and he glanced at Qiao Yihuan without squinting, and then he bowed his head slightly and gestured to Bai Xian.
Bai Xian took the box with a smile, and then slowly opened the box in front of Ji Zongya.
Everyone's hearts rose to their throats with the lid of the box.
Even Concubine Jiang was firmly nailed to the box.
The box opened, and the one lying inside turned out to be a little emerald butterfly jade hairpin!
It's beautiful, and it's obviously not a cheap plant.
But no one paid attention to the value of this jade hairpin, almost all the people in Cining Palace breathed a sigh of relief, Lin Yuan and the three of them were glad that there was nothing harmful in the box, and the palace maids and eunuchs were glad that they didn't have to be angry with the emperor.
Ji Zongya's brows furrowed slightly invisibly, such a result was not what he wanted, he was sure that Ji Zongyu's previous warning to cover up must not be this jade hairpin.
He looked at the wooden box again, but it was so small that it was obvious at a glance that there could be no other thing hidden in the mezzanine.
He raised his eyebrows and looked at Qiao Yihuan, obviously asking.
Qiao Yihuan showed a slightly stunned look, "This jade hairpin belongs to my young lady." She only said this, because she was afraid that the explanation would be too much, too revealing traces, and she would stop at the end of the point, and the clear-eyed person would naturally associate this sentence with only this sentence, why was it only Lin Yuan's jade hairpin in the box, but Ji Zongyu wanted to hide it, isn't this obviously what Lin Yuan gave to Ji Zongyu when the two complained about their love for each other? And her previous request to the emperor not to make it public, is also alluding to this.
The young lady present was Lin Yuan, and Ji Zongya knew what Qiao Yihuan meant when he heard the words.
And Lin Yuan's cheeks flushed appropriately.
"You girl. You and Yu'er are already about to have a good thing, what's the big deal about sending a jade hairpin, you can send it generously. Concubine Jiang answered with a relaxed smile.
Lin Yuan hung her head and said in a voice like a mosquito, "I'm going to leave the palace tomorrow, so I plan to give this close-fitting jade hairpin to Cousin Yu, but I ended up here when I was in the warehouse today, so I thought about it just now, so I hurriedly came in to find it." For fear of being seen by Sister Yue'e, they will see ...... first," said later. She seemed to be shy, and her voice grew quieter and quieter.
"This is really, what is the little palace maid scared like that?" The queen, who had been waiting to see a good show, said angrily that she didn't believe Lin Yuan's rhetoric at all in the previous performance of the palace maid.
Lin Yuan raised his face. A look of bewilderment. ". The people's words are true, why don't you believe it? She hung her head again, as if she was ashamed. Before the maiden went to Beijing, the grandmother at home had already taught her, the palace was not as good as the family, and the rules were very heavy, and the maid was worried that the matter of the jade hairpin would be known to be immoral, so she asked Cousin Yu to ask the palace maid who found the box not to say it, and Cousin Yu scared Sister Yue'e and them a few words, but the palace maid naturally did not dare to deceive when she saw the emperor's dragon face. ”
This argument is also reasonable, the queen can't continue to ask if she doesn't catch the handle, otherwise she will be suspected of deliberately framing.
Although the queen was disappointed, she also pretended to nod.
Ji Zongya also sighed at this time, and said lightly or seriously, "You have to study this rule well, although you and Yu'er are already married, but in the end they are not married, and you can't do anything to teach each other privately." ”
Concubine Jiang answered, "Emperor, these two little nonsense are still bothering you, you really should be beaten, this palace will talk about them later." ”
Ji Zongya said with a smile, "Messing around is a bit nonsense, but this is also a last resort." As he spoke, he changed his voice and said, "But it's not appropriate for the concubine's treasury to be so open, let's let people count it, so as not to lose something and it won't be beautiful." ”
The smile on Concubine Jiang's face froze, and she wanted to refuse.
But Ji Zongya sneered in his heart, where to give Concubine Jiang a chance to speak, and immediately said to Bai Xian, "Go and call someone to take a good inventory of the concubine's treasury." "Do you really think that if you change the contents of the box, he can't do anything? He is the Son of Heaven, who dares to deceive under his nose?!
Bai Xian immediately promised, immediately turned around and beckoned a group of eunuchs, and rushed into the warehouse like a wolf and a tiger.
Just now, the peak and the loop turned bright, but the situation suddenly took a sharp turn.
Lin Yuan felt like she was riding a roller coaster.
She looked at Qiao Yihuan anxiously, only looking forward to the original things in the box, and the other party was not hidden in the warehouse.
And Qiao Yi was calm and relaxed, without the slightest fluster.
"Come on, search these palace maids and eunuchs who have entered the treasury, it's hard to ensure that someone has a bad idea and hides something on their body." Ji Zongyu glanced at Qiao Yihuan, and immediately said again.
It's all about slashing and killing!
Ji Zongyu's teeth itched with hatred, but he was helpless, so he couldn't say weakly, "Brother Huang, what are you doing here?" ”
Seeing that it was about to come to light, Ji Zongya ignored Ji Zongyu's question, and only looked at Concubine Jiang with a slight threat and said, "I am also taking precautions, and the concubine will not be too careful." ”
"The emperor has a heart." Concubine Jiang smiled reluctantly, she has lived in the side hall of Cining Palace for so many years, and has never faced Ji Zongya head-on, today she understands more and more the situation of their mother and son, that is Ji Zongya's thoughts, their mother and son will die without a place to be buried!
Maybe what Yue'e has mentioned many times, she should reconsider.
After Bai Xian entered the treasury, everyone stood outside the door of the warehouse, and the palace maids and eunuchs who had entered the treasury were also searched by Ji Zongya's people one by one, and the palace maids and eunuchs who were originally fighting the fire around gradually dispersed.
The fire has been completely extinguished, but the aftermath continues.
There are so many things in Concubine Jiang's treasury that they can't be counted in a moment and a half, and they didn't even take a list before they went in. But what Bai Xian is looking for is something extra, so naturally it won't take too long.
"Back to the emperor, the minions have all checked, and there is no shortage of things." Bai Xian walked out of the treasury and said to Ji Zongya. He was helpless, but he really didn't find anything suspicious.
Ji Zongya bowed his head, he could still calm down, because he saw that Bai Xian, who was doing things safely, had asked a few little eunuchs to investigate around the treasury before, and the palace maids and eunuchs who searched him were about to find Qiao Yihuan.
However, soon, Qiao Yihuan's body was also searched, and nothing was found, only Ji Zongyu and Lin Yuan were left.
Ji Zongyu clenched his fists, could it be that Ji Zongya would really search him and Lin Yuan in public regardless of his face?
Several eunuchs who had searched the area around the storehouse returned, again finding nothing.
Ji Zongya's eyes were nailed to Ji Zongyu and Lin Yuan's bodies, and that thing should be on the bodies of the two of them!
Ji Zongya's gaze was self-evident, and the palace maids and eunuchs who searched their bodies walked towards Ji Zongyu and Lin Yuan from left to right.
Concubine Jiang suddenly lowered her face, "Emperor, what are you going to do?" Could it be that Yu'er and Yuanyuan will steal things from the palace? She also felt that the things that were originally in the wooden box were hidden by the two of them, otherwise Bai Xian would not have found nothing as a eunuch.
Ji Zongya didn't have any high-sounding reason at all at this time, so he didn't pay attention to Concubine Jiang at all.
And the palace maid and the eunuch understood the holy will, and immediately stepped forward to search for it. (To be continued.) )
