A bucket of cold water poured down from the top of his head like a white waterfall, pouring Tong Qi from the inside out. Remorse is in the midst of fear, and the desire is dying. As the sun sets, it all seems to come to an abrupt end. Tong Qi curled up in the messy leaves and grass, looking at Situ Xi tremblingly, trembling all over. I caught a glimpse of his usually smiling eyes shooting two fierce and unbelievable gazes at this moment, and a dark cloud of despair had covered his heart.

The red-clothed maid put on the new clothes she had been sent and wrapped her body tightly, her face still full of tears. He staggered up to Situ Xi, sobbed and reported the raid, and cried at the end: "The slave is not guilty, Your Highness is aware of it." Situ Xi stroked her long hair, straightened out the unkempt black silk one by one, straightened the silver and white beads between the hairpins, and said softly: "Wen'er, you are frightened." Let's go back to the house first. I'll be sure to give you an explanation. As soon as he said that, two maids helped Wen'er to leave.

Situ Xi turned his head to Tong Qi, who was shrinking in a corner, and his anger rose again: "Tong Qi, what medicine did you take wrong?" How dare you mess around in my house? Bullying a weak woman in front of everyone, do you still have a little shame! ”

Tong Qi pursed his lips and said in a trembling voice: "Your Highness forgives your sins...... I...... I don't know what's going on, I couldn't restrain myself just now......"

"Can't restrain yourself for a while? How old are you? I think you're overly complacent, and you don't take this letter palace in your eyes! When Situ Xi said this, there was just a gust of fresh wind, and several clumps of green leaves beside him shook in the wind, as if they nodded in agreement.

Zi'an on the side spoke: "Lord Tong, I've heard you say that you want to find a girl to relieve your boredom recently. To tell the truth, what kind of girl doesn't have in the Rose Fragrance Courtyard, how can you be in His Highness's Mansion...... Alas, I don't even dare to mention this again. If it gets out, where do you put His Highness's face? A pair of peach blossom eyes are shining, different from the previous flattery, and what is flowing out at the moment is full of guilt.

Tong Qi kowtowed like pounding garlic: "Your Highness, I heard that Your Highness plans to give Hongshan to the small one." So the little one was confused just now, thinking that it ...... That girl is Hongshan. ”

Situ Xi snorted coldly: "What nonsense, when did I ever have such a plan?" How did I not know? ”

Tong Qi was stunned and stammered: "It was Lord Zizi Zi'an who told the little one." ”

Situ Xi turned his gaze at Zi'an and asked suspiciously, "You said that?" ”

Zi'an stomped his feet and said: "Your Highness, this is clearly Tong Qi's slander and wants to exonerate himself, when and where did I say such things to him?" The slave swore to heaven that there would be no such thing. Besides, even if His Highness decides to allow him a woman, can he do such nonsense in broad daylight? ”

Zi'an's voice gradually rose, but Tong Qi's heart sank a little. Thinking of the scene of Shicai's drinking and his strange reaction after drinking, his head "boomed", like waking up from a dream. Said hurriedly: "Your Highness, just now I have been drinking with Zi'an in the 'Yangyi Pavilion'. I, I'm done drinking his wine, and I'm going to ...... will ......" paused, gritted his teeth and said: "Your Highness, I suspect that Zi'an put some indiscriminate medicine in the wine. Please also ask Your Highness to be aware of it. Raising his eyes and glaring at Zi'an, his eyes breathed fire, and he couldn't wait to rush up and give Zi'an a violent beating.

Situ Xi was very surprised when he heard this, and immediately instructed a maid beside him to go to Yangyi Pavilion to investigate. After a short time, the maid retrieved a wine jug and two wine glasses and presented them to Situ Xi. Tong Qi looked at it and almost fainted.

It was originally a thin and crystalline, white and blue shadow green pot cup, but it was replaced by blue and white porcelain with landscape character patterns. The porcelain pot depicts a fisherman in a lily coat, sitting on the side of the river fishing for river snow alone, and the slightly arched back arc is like an exaggerated corner of his mouth at this moment, full of mockery. Tong Qi immediately woke up: When the accident happened, the wine pot and wine glass had already been dropped by Zi'an's secretly bought subordinates.

Zi'an took the wine set and said suspiciously: "Lord Tong is talking about this pot of wine?" This is the 'Jade Ruichun' I bought at a high price, and I kindly gave it to you, but you don't know what to do, it's really a tyrannical thing. It's a pity, it's a pity. With that, he poured out a glass of fragrant and intoxicating liquid from the pot and tilted his neck up.

Situ Xi faced Tong Qi and said, "What else do you have to say?" ”

Seeing that the human and physical evidence has been lost, the matter is irreparable. Cold sweat trickled down his forehead. Tong Qi forced his composure, and suddenly raised his head and said: "Your Highness, I admit today's matter and am willing to be punished." But there is one more thing I can't leave out. ”

"What's the matter?"

Tong Qi looked directly at Zi'an, saw that his face was faintly colorful, sneered in his heart, and said: "As far as the villain knows, Lord Zi'an's hands and feet are not very clean. It's either fishing in troubled waters, or it's taking the sheep by the hand. We believe how many things have been lost in the palace, I think if we go to Lord Zi'an's bedroom to search for it, hehe, most of them will be returned to their original owners. ”

Zi'an's expression changed greatly, and he was about to say something, but Tong Qi rushed to say: "Let's not talk about the pot throwing competition that day, Zi'an secretly hid His Highness's bounty." That's all trivial. If Your Highness takes a closer look, see if the Xuanying Bead and the Jasper Floating Statue in the mansion are still in place. ”

The two things that Tong Qi mentioned were all birthday gifts from officials from the Quartet to Situ Xi. Usually locked in a special box, stored in storage. Situ Xi has always been light on money and charity, and he won't take care of anything special. Na Zi'an didn't know what to think, and actually sneaked into the inner library to steal these two things from the dazzling treasures. After wrapping it, hide it in a secret place in the bedroom, and only secretly take it out to play with when the night is deeper. Unexpectedly, before he could get rid of it, Tong Qi, who was waiting to spy on him, explored the matter clearly.

It was Zi'an's turn to panic, and Emperor Zhang said: "Your Highness, you must listen to what Tong Qi said. How dare the villain steal Wang Bao. It's a head-scratching thing. Tong Qi he forced the maid to fail, in order to ...... In order to divert attention, he poured dirty water on me. Your Highness, don't fall for him. What he said about Xuanying Beads and Jasper Futu is unheard of by the villain. If it is really lost, I think most of it will be sold by Tong Qi. Otherwise, how would he have known that the villain was hiding such a thing? ”

In the panic, the last two sentences were already incompatible, revealing flaws. Situ Xi heard it in his ears, and felt as if something was wrong, and when he hesitated, he subconsciously raised his head, but saw Ji Linghuang's figure floating in front of him like a wisp of ghost. Situ Xi hurriedly called over, finished the situation in a few words, and asked, "How do you think this matter should be decided?" ”

Ji Linghuang walked in front of Zi'an, with an expression of "Don't be afraid, my brother is here" on his face, and said resolutely: "I believe that Lord Zi'an will never do such a thing." Zi An breathed a sigh of relief and threw a grateful glance at Ji Linghuang. Ji Linghuang turned around and walked in front of Tong Qi again, turned his back to Situ Xi and Ji Linghuang, and winked at Tong Qi. Tong Qi thought to himself: Is this Brother Ji hinting at me?

Ji Linghuang said loudly: "Lord Tong, it is already unforgivable for you to do such a despicable thing today. But he still has to frame Lord Zi'an. There is no evidence, and he said that he was stealing treasures in the mansion, which is too much. ”

Zi'an was much more relieved when he heard Ji Linghuang defending himself, and reached out and secretly touched a handful of cold sweat on his forehead, but the more he listened, the more wrong he became: "Xinwangfu is a noble and clean place, Your Highness is wise, how can you wait for the courtiers to shake their lips and play with right and wrong?" If you don't return Lord Zi'an's innocence today, he will spread to the ears of others in the future, and he will definitely say that His Highness deliberately shielded and Zi'an had ulterior motives. Okay, I will follow your wishes today, and I will search Lord Zi'an's bedroom, so as not to fall into the truth in the future and damage His Royal Highness's reputation. ”

Tong Qi was very happy when he heard it, and his face still showed panic. Ji Linghuang turned his head and said to Situ Xi again: "Your Highness, what Ling Huang said is right?" Situ Xi bowed his head and said, "Just do as you say." ”

Here Zi'an was already stunned, his mouth open, and his voice was hoarse and speechless. Ji Linghuang patted Zi'an's shoulder, nodded and said in a deep voice: "Lord Zi'an, I believe in you." As he spoke, he beckoned to the other guards in the mansion, and they all rushed into Zi'an's bedroom, rummaging through the boxes and cabinets and starting to look for things. The battle alarmed everyone in the house. Jiang Jiu'er, who had just returned home, heard the movement, walked quickly to the garden, and when he saw this situation, he asked Situ Xi suspiciously: "Your Highness, what happened?" ”

Situ Xi was quite dissatisfied: "Where have you been?" Why did you come back so late? ”

Jiang Jiu'er bowed down and replied, "The villain is out to visit his old friend, so he came back late, and I ask His Highness for forgiveness." Tong Qi, who looked at the water dogs, and Zi'an, who was stunned, said in disbelief: "...... you? But when Situ Xi snorted, several people didn't answer.

After a cup of tea, Ji Linghuang had returned to the garden with an inconspicuous black wooden box. Situ Xi took it, opened the lid of the box, glanced at it, immediately closed it angrily, and asked Zi'an: "Zi'an, what else do you have to say?" ”

Zi'an's legs weakened, knelt on the ground, and said, "Temple...... Your Highness...... This is a false accusation. The villain is wronged. "Crying and wiping tears to cry out for injustice.

Ji Linghuang saw that Jiang Jiu'er had also come to the garden, his heart jumped, and his fists were secretly clenched. I still said hello to him as usual. Turning around, he asked Zi'an: "You said you were framed?" Could it be that Lord Tong framed you again? Lord Zi'an, you have to think clearly. If there is no evidence, then you have the intention to slander, which is an additional crime. Suddenly, he blinked and said, "Could there be someone else who blames you?" If so, his crime is not light. ”

Zi'an looked up at Jiang Jiu'er when he heard this, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that he was gloating, and he couldn't help but feel ashamed and annoyed. It's just muddy, just hoping to get Jiang Jiu'er involved and make things as messy as possible. Then he said: "The villain has never entered the warehouse to steal treasures, and he can't figure out how there are these two things in the house when he is killed." As for who planted it, the villain ...... Not sure. But as far as I know...... Master Jiang has always misbehaved, maybe he did it. ”

Situ Xi didn't expect Zi'an to point the finger at Jiang Jiu'er, and was slightly surprised. Jiang Jiu'er took a few steps forward, grabbed Zi'an's collar, and said angrily: "What are you talking nonsense? When have I framed you? Your own hands and feet are not clean, and you want to hit me with a rake? I don't want to think about who got you into the palace of the king of letters? ”

Zi'an looked at Jiang Jiu'er proudly and sneered: "Master Jiang, Daoist Jiang!" What have you done behind your back, do you really want me to tell me one by one? ”

Jiang Jiu'er's voice was fierce: "If you know something, tell me!" Don't fool around. ”

Zi'an glanced at Tong Qi, and the two seemed to have reached a tacit understanding at this moment. Let's take a look at Situ Xi and Ji Linghuang: one has a complicated expression, as if he is waiting to watch a play, but the other is strongly encouraging. straightened his back, puffed up his chest, and said, "The first thing I want to say is that at the beginning of this month, you went to Qianjinfang and lost miserably, and you owed a lot of debt. After coming back, he took the top beaded ferret hat that His Royal Highness wore in winter to the pawnshop, did this matter or not? ”

As soon as the words came out, Jiang Jiu'er and Situ Xi's faces changed.

"Is this the second thing...... Xiao Yun, a girl on Sixi Street, is a good girl, but she hanged herself last month. In the end, he didn't die, and the family had an extra amount of money. Why is that? ”

Jiang Jiu'er looked at Zi'an in amazement, feeling as if she was falling into a strange and terrifying dream.
