178. Chapter 178: Jade Pendant
This question was originally Bailiyan's question, but at this time, it was thrown to Concubine Yan, but Concubine Yan didn't know how to answer, and if she answered in the affirmative, then she was ambitious, and if she denied it, it would be equivalent to losing an opportunity.
Concubine Yan bowed her head and said nothing, Baili Yan smiled and asked, "What?" It's hard to answer yes? Still can't make up your mind? ”
"Your Majesty, this is a political matter, not something that the concubines can talk about, and please don't embarrass the concubines." Concubine Yan's voice was strict, and she could still hear the meaning of embarrassment.
Bai Liyan glanced at Concubine Yan, returned to her seat, and said in an unkind tone: "Get up!" ”
"Your Majesty." Concubine Yan cautiously walked over and sat down.
As soon as Gonggong Lu left Yongning Palace, he hurried to Jiade Palace, and as soon as he entered, he was seen by Ru Xi and called: "Gonggong Lu." ”
Hearing this, Gonggong Lu turned his head to look over, bowed his head and said, "Crown Princess, the old slave is here to see the emperor in front of Prince Xuan." ”
"The emperor wants to see the prince and let others come, why do you need your father-in-law to come in person?" Ru Xi asked strangely.
In the past, Gonggong Lu felt terrible when he saw Ru Xi, and he felt that it was nothing after seeing more and seeing more habits, but at this time, seeing Ru Xi's curiosity, he sighed lightly, and the parents shortened: "The emperor is at the Queen Mother's place, and Concubine Yan is also at the Queen Mother's place." ”
"Then what did the emperor Xuan Prince go to the queen mother for?" Ru Xi asked.
Lu Gonggong said: "It was Concubine Yan who participated in the prince's book in front of the emperor, saying that the prince and the queen collaborated to curse the emperor, and also said that Xiao Hezi was the queen's accomplice, and the prince was afraid of leaving evidence, so he killed Xiao Hezi." ”
Xiao Hezi was obviously killed by Su Liangdi, but Concubine Yan said that she was killed by Baili Interpretation? Ru Xi pondered for a while and said, "Why did Concubine Yan say that Xiao Hezi was killed by the prince?" ”
Gonggong Lu looked around, lowered his voice and said: "Don't hide it from the crown princess, Concubine Yan picked up the prince's jade pendant, and each prince has a piece of the jade pendant, engraved with the names of the princes, and it is something that never leaves his body, this time, the prince is afraid that it will be difficult to argue." ”
"Jade pendant?" Ru Xi subconsciously touched the jade pendant hanging on her chest, this piece on her body is Baili Yu, the jade pendant on Baili Yan should be similar to the one on her body, "Those jade pendants are exactly the same?" ”
"Except for the different words engraved, the appearance is exactly the same."
Ru Xi smiled: "I understand, you go!" ”
Father-in-law Lu glanced at Ru Xi for some reason, and then walked to Bailiyi's dormitory, and soon, he saw Bailiyi walking out with Gonggong Lu, and Ru Xi was still at the door and did not leave.
When Bai Li Yi saw her, thinking of the events of the previous night, his face was slightly gloomy, Ru Xi walked over and asked, "Where is the jade pendant on your body?" ”
"What jade pendant?" Bai Liyi asked inexplicably.
"It's the jade pendant that represents your identity." Ru Xi spoke more clearly, and Baili Yi understood and said, "In the hall." ”
"Really in the temple?" Ru Xi glanced at Gonggong Lu, and then looked at Bailiyan, Gonggong Lu just announced that Bailiyi went to see Bailiyan, Bailiyi didn't ask what it was, and Gonggong Lu didn't say.
At this time, seeing that Ru Xi asked about the jade pendant, and seeing her strange expression, and Gonggong Lu was also curious, Bai Li Yi asked: "Why do you ask about the jade pendant?" ”
Ru Xi repeated the matter of the jade pendant, Baili Yi hurriedly returned to the dormitory after hearing it, Ru Xi and Lu Gonggong also followed, Bai Li Yi looked around in the hall, but he couldn't find the jade pendant.
"Obviously put it here." Bai Liyi pointed to the low table next to the bed, where there were still a few jade ornaments, but there was no shadow of the jade pendant.
Ru Xi shook his head and said, "This jade pendant is something that is not separated from the body, why did you put it on it?" ”
"I took it off when I took it off the night before and forgot to put it on." The queen's matter had already upset Bai Li Yi, and when something like this happened at this time, Bai Li Yi seemed even more impatient.
Gonggong Lu saw Baili Yi walking around the hall, and when he saw Ru Xi's calm face, he asked, "Crown Princess, the emperor and the queen mother are still waiting." ”
The implication is to let Baili Yi go to Yongning Palace quickly.
Ru Xi nodded, and said to Baili Yi: "You go first, if the emperor asks you about the jade pendant, you will be sure that the piece in Concubine Yan's hand is fake, and the real jade pendant is in my hand." ”
"Why do you have a jade pendant in your hand?" Baili Yi didn't understand what kind of medicine Ru Xi gourd was selling.
"Don't worry about this, I have my own way, you go quickly!" Ru Xi urged.
Now, I can't retreat, I can only move forward, Baili Yi looked at Ru Xi and said seriously: "If you help me resolve the crisis this time, I will owe you a favor." ”
Ru Xi was slightly stunned when she heard this, she wanted to help Bailiyi, but it was nothing more than to oppose Concubine Yan, but she didn't expect Bailiyi to say this, so she gladly accepted it and said, "This is what you said." ”
Seeing that Ru Xi and the two had already negotiated, Father-in-law Lu said, "Prince, let's go!" ”
As soon as Baili Yi and Father-in-law Lu left, Ru Xi returned to the dormitory and asked Qingliu to take out all the jade products in the jewelry box and set up a full table.
"Miss, what are you looking for?"
Seeing Ru Xi turn the jade into a mess, Aoyagi asked.
Ru Xi didn't raise his head, pulled out the jade pendant hanging around his neck, and said, "Find a jade pendant like this." ”
When Aoyagi saw the jade pendant, he looked for it in another box for a long time and said, "Miss, do you think this piece looks like it?" ”
Ru Xi took the piece of Lantian jade in his hand and looked at it, and found that the large and small shapes were really a little similar, but the color was a little wrong, and after thinking about it, he took a silk handkerchief and wrapped the jade.
"You put things away."
Ru Xi explained Qingliu and walked out.
Yongning Palace, the Queen Mother and Yuxiang gossip about their parents, Bailiyan occasionally answers, Concubine Yan is a little bored sitting on the side, I can't wait for Bailiyi to come quickly, she will go back quickly.
Seeing Gonggong Lu walking in, Concubine Yan immediately came to her senses, Bailiyi, this time, see how you hide.
"Your Majesty, the crown prince is here, waiting outside the palace."
"Let him in." Bailiyan was sitting down, the Queen Mother and Yuxiang were still talking, and the mother and daughter seemed to have endless words.
Because he already had a bottom in his heart, Baili Yi walked in calmly and said: "Erchen has seen his father, grandson to the emperor's grandmother, nephew to aunt to say goodbye." ”
"No courtesy." Bai Liyan glanced at the jade pendant resting next to the handrail, and asked straight to the point, "Do you know about Xiao Hezi's killing?" ”
Bai Li Yi nodded and said, "I heard about it early this morning." ”
"And do you know who killed it?"
Baili Yi shook his head: "Erchen doesn't know." ”
"Concubine Yan said, you killed Xiao Hezi?" Bai Liyan didn't turn around and wipe his feet, but directly said that it was Concubine Yan who said it, and Concubine Yan raised her eyes, and saw Bai Liyan's eyes glaring coldly.
