Chapter 20: Rivalry

"If the princess can wash away this injustice for Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu will be grateful!" Jiang Xiaoyu lowered his eyes and said respectfully.

"Since you, the party, have agreed, then the princess will let her subordinates do it!" Princess Xiuwen smiled slightly, some subtle wrinkles appeared in the corners of her eyes, and said softly, "There is something offended, I hope Miss Jiang can forgive me more!" ”

"Auntie!" Zhao Ling clasped his hands into fists and bowed slightly towards the princess, very respectful, "I don't think it's necessary, before I came here, I had already asked my subordinates to look for it in the Jiang Mansion, maybe I could pick up this Miss Qiran's lost jade pendant!" ”

He touched his chin, took a breath, thought for a moment and said, "This time should have a result!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Yang Xing enter with two subordinates, first greeted the princess and the prince, and then smiled slightly: "I really let the prince speak, the subordinates took people to turn around slightly in this Jiang Mansion, and really found the jade pendant!" Although the subordinates are clumsy, the color of the jade pendant is a tribute at first sight, so the subordinates speculate that this may be the jade pendant that Miss Qiran lost! ”

After he finished speaking, he took out a jade pendant from his arms, which was emerald all over and had no impurities at all.

Zhao Ling took it and played with it, his eyebrows raised slightly, and asked, "Miss Qiran, is this jade pendant the one that the imperial grandmother rewarded?" ”

Jiang Qiran nodded with a pale face, swallowed his saliva, and his body began to tremble slightly.

"Yang Xing, where did you find the things?"

"Yu Shizi, my subordinate found it in the fifth lady's closet!" Yang Xing said with his fists clenched.

"Oh?" Zhao Ling smiled sympathetically, forgetting to glance at Jiang Huiran, who had been forgotten to the side, "In the fifth lady's closet? Fun, really funny! ”

"You talk nonsense!" Jiang Huiran said sharply, "I don't know what's going on!" You have wronged me! ”

"This jade pendant was found in Miss Five's closet, Miss Five's mother and the maid in the house saw it with their own eyes, and their subordinates had no grievances with Miss Five, why did they wronged Miss Five?" Yang Xing said indifferently.

"Presumptuous!" Princess Xiuwen's face sank, and her eyes as gentle as water filled with a little anger, "Who do you think you are?" How can you search this Jiang family if you want to? Have you ever put Jiang Shilang in your eyes! ”

"Auntie doesn't have to blame Yang Xing, I asked him to do this!" Zhao Ling smiled faintly, "Lord Jiang is an upright person, if he can find out the truth, he shouldn't have any opinions, right?" As for why I'm searching for these five young ladies......"

He immediately showed a bitter and hateful look, took Jiang Xiaoyu's hand and said: "Aunt doesn't know, my fiancΓ©e is because she is too kind, she has been bullied by Miss Five's mother and daughter, and it just so happens that this time she has something to do with Miss Five, so she made her own decisions without notifying Lord Jiang first!" This person got the stolen goods, and the truth was revealed, it turned out that these five young ladies were thieves and caught thieves! ”

"I didn't, I didn't!" Jiang Huiran immediately knelt down with a blank face and crawled in front of Jiang Yuan, "Daddy, my daughter is wronged, my daughter is not!" The daughter doesn't know what's going on! ”

Knowing that things had come to this point, Jiang Houyuan resolutely couldn't let his granddaughter be involved anymore, slapped the table, got up and shouted angrily: "It turned out to be you!" Not only have you stolen something, but you have also been deceived so badly! Today, I invited such an uncle and relative, and I was tired of the eldest princess, and I was actually played by your girl! ”

"What's going on! You little brute don't hurry up and get things straight! Jiang Yuan put a foot on Jiang Huiran's chest, and the green tendons in his temples flashed and shouted angrily.

Jiang Huiran fell to the ground, she didn't have time to cry out in pain, her whole body began to tremble, her eyes quickly turned to think of countermeasures, her eyes lit up, and she shouted excitedly: "I remembered, I remembered!" This jade pendant...... The jade pendant was given to me by Sister Qiran......"

"Me? What do I give you? Jiang Qiran stammered and said suspiciously.

"Sister Qiran probably forgot, when you came to me a few months ago, you gave me the jade pendant when you were happy!" Jiang Huiran looked at Jiang Qiran's eyes with a calm breath and said, "It's been too long, and I just remembered it just now, I don't know if Sister Qiran remembered it!" ”

Jiang Qiran just wanted to deny it, but she read the threat in Jiang Huiran's eyes, and her heart sank, this matter was conspired by her and Jiang Huiran to frame Jiang Xiaoyu, if Jiang Huiran was to bear this matter alone at this time, I am afraid that she will tell the truth, it will be very bad......

"I ...... I remembered, I gave you the jade pendant! Jiang Qiran bit his lip and said, "I just remembered it!" ”

"Engaging in such a big battle turned out to be just a farce made by two people with bad memories!" Zhao Ling smiled disdainfully, "Give away the things rewarded by the Queen Mother, Miss Qiran, you are so generous!" ”

"These two young ladies have already admitted that this matter is their mistake, old marquis, you don't have any evidence and shout that our Xiaoyu is a thief, and you have to go to the queen mother, how do you plan to end this matter?" Zhao Ling asked with a sneer.

"This matter is confused, and I misunderstood the eldest lady!" Jiang Houyuan couldn't help but whispered unwillingly, "Ben Hou will definitely apologize to the eldest lady!" ”

"The old marquis has lived for decades, and he should know that good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles!" Zhao Ling's chin raised slightly, and he said domineeringly, "This prince hopes that Master Hou will not only apologize to Xiaoyu, but also apologize to Xiaoyu in front of the entire Jiang clan in the ancestral hall, and give Xiaoyu justice!" ”

"What!" Jiang Houyuan's face changed, he was angry and embarrassed, he never thought that Zhao Ling would be so faceless! Not only Jiang Houyuan, but the people in the Hou Mansion, including the princess, are not good-looking!

"This ......" The old lady also showed a look of embarrassment, "Although Xiaoyu is said to have been wronged today, it is just that the elder apologizes to the younger generation, not to mention that the eldest brother still has a title, although this matter has alarmed the princess and the prince, but in the final analysis, it is also the matter of the Jiang family, you see ...... the prince"

"Ling'er, you and I meddling in the affairs of the Jiang family today, it can be regarded as a matter of idleness, in the final analysis, this is still a matter within the Jiang family, and how to deal with it is also their own business, you have to make a storm in the city to make people talk about it! You should also be the old marquis and my elder, for the sake of your aunt's face, you don't have to be so aggressive! Xiuwen opened his mouth to persuade.

"Since my aunt has spoken, there is no need for my nephew to entangle any longer, anyway, my nephew just wants to get justice for his fiancΓ©e!" The anger on Zhao Ling's face faded, and he said in a deep voice, "But let's also let others see, although Xiaoyu is a poor child without a mother, he won't let people bully him at will!" ”
