Ji Lingyun was only stunned for a moment before he understood the reason, he didn't expect Zhu Yong to dare to be so bold!

Seeing that Ji Lingyun's face sank, Bai Yanran reassured: "Don't worry, catch the thief and catch the stolen goods." I've already asked someone to take an inventory of the warehouse, and I'm afraid I won't be able to finish it for a while. ”

Ji Lingyun also understood this truth, but he was angry for a while. After settling down, he looked at Lingxi and said, "Out of the palace for half a day, the palace gate is about to be keyed, and I will send you back." ”

Ling Xi looked at the sky and knew that he should go, so he reluctantly said: "The imperial brother doesn't have to send me, just accompany the imperial sister-in-law here." ”

After that, he held Bai Yanran's hand and said: "I will also go to the Yongqiu banquet, we can meet again when the time comes, don't think I talk too much." ”

Bai Yanran smiled and said: "No, I am also lonely in the palace, if you are free in the future, you will often come to talk to me." ”

Ling Xi looked at Ji Lingyun happily when he heard this, and said proudly: "See, the imperial sister-in-law said that I would come often." ”

Ji Lingyun smiled helplessly: "Okay, good, as long as you can pass Aunt Sangcong's pass, you can come whenever you want." ”

Seeing Ling Xi away, Bai Yanran saw Ji Lingyun's depressed expression, and took the initiative to take his hand and said, "It's all some trivial things, the prince doesn't have to mind." The prince has a furrow in his chest, and he is busy with court affairs, and it is inevitable that some small things cannot be taken into account, and these trivial and miscellaneous matters should be worried about by a clever woman's family. ”

Ji Lingyun turned around and took Bai Yanran into his arms, and sighed: "I know that you have also been in a difficult situation at home, I was bent on marrying you home to protect you, but I don't want you to take care of these dirty things for me now." Yan'er, I failed to protect you. ”

Bai Yanran's heart rippled, she relaxed her body and snuggled into Ji Lingyun's arms, and said softly: "You believe me, I will handle the trivial matters in the house, and I will keep your house peaceful." I believe in you. You will block the wind and rain outside, and keep me safe and well. ”

The battle in the treasury alarmed the whole house, and soon the news of the luminous cup spread among the people, and some of them saw something unusual from it.

So far, the key to the treasury has only passed through the hands of Mr. Pei, Steward Zhu and Zhu Ling. Now that there is such a big movement, Zhu Ling and Mr. Pei are here, but they only don't see Steward Zhu appearing, so they guess a lot.

Where is Steward Zhu now? In his own room, he looked at the luminous cup in front of him and worried.

Also in the house was Miao Yu, Zhu Yong was still a little measured, knowing that this luminous cup was a gift from the emperor, which was unusual, even if he kept it privately, he only dared to show off his good looks, but others had never seen it.

But now that the princess has thoroughly inspected the treasury, there is no such thing as a treasury, and it is natural to suspect that someone is guarding and stealing. When the time comes, if you search the house again, you will not be a stolen person.

If it was something else, maybe Zhu Yongxin would throw it away, but this luminous cup is a royal gift, and if it is damaged, it will be a disrespectful crime of killing the head.

No matter how bold he is, he is just relying on the Tong family and the queen's mother to fake the tiger, and he never has the courage.

Zhu Yong was so anxious that he was like an ant on a hot pot, and when he turned his head, he saw Miao Yu boredly fiddling with his ten-fingered pill, and suddenly scolded angrily: "When is this happening, you are still sitting here." Everyone in the house knows about the two of us, and if I eat and hang, you won't have a good life! ”

Miao Yu was not annoyed when she was scolded, she got up and snuggled up coquettishly and said, "What are you talking about, I naturally look forward to your well." It's just that now, it's useless to be anxious. ”

Zhu Yong was anxious and angry, and asked with a suppressed anger: "Then what do you say to do?" ”

Miao Yuyi whispered softly in his ear: "Now this luminous cup is a hot potato in our hands, so things can't be left around, we have to throw them out." ”

Zhu Yong's eyes widened and scolded: "You crazy woman, how can you destroy the things that have been given by the emperor!" ”

Miao Yu sneered: "What about the imperial gift, it is not in our hands now. If this is stolen by the princess, how can it spare you? As long as the thing is not in your hands, no matter how you die, you will not admit it, and no one can do anything about you. ”

Zhu Yong thought about it carefully, and there was no other way at the moment, so he could only make a desperate bet.

"Then where do you say things should be thrown?"

Miao Yu didn't care much and said: "There are a lot of precious silver carp in the lake ahead, so let's take this luminous cup as a companion." ”

Zhu Yong understood, and said in a deep voice: "You mean Shenhu?" ”

Such a treasure sank to the bottom of the lake like this and could never see the light of day again, Zhu Yong was really a little reluctant. But he also knew that the situation was urgent, and now there was no better way, so he gritted his teeth and agreed.

Miao Yu said: "Right now, the princess's eyes and ears must be staring at you, you can't do anything, so leave this matter to me." ”

As the sun sets, the sky gradually darkens.

The two fire-burning girls in the kitchen also went to the warehouse to watch the excitement, and were pulled back by Aunt Shan to do things. There was a lot of work in the kitchen, and Qiao'er carried the food box and sent it to Linglong Xiaozhu.

As soon as the girls were idle, their mouths couldn't be idle, the cook took out her fried pumpkin seeds, and several people gathered around the table and began to break their mouths, talking about the treasures in the warehouse.

The cook spit out a mouthful of melon seed skin, gloating and said: "It is said that if you walk too much at night, you will always meet ghosts, no, you will be retributed." "Tianhe

There are also girls who dare not believe it, and muttered: "Didn't you say that things are mixed?" Only then did the inventory of the warehouse search. ”

The cook sneered: "You little girl is shallow-eyed, you can't see that the princess is suspicious, so you have to check if there is anything missing." ”

The mother-in-law who helped the cook on the side also helped: "I think Steward Zhu is going to plant this time, who made him bold and dared to steal even the things given by the emperor." ”

The cook snorted coldly: "You deserve it!" ”

A small guy came in on the side, and he also grabbed a handful of melon seeds with a smile, and said after a while: "There is a newly recruited girl who went to wait next to the princess, I heard that it looks really good, have you seen it?" ”

The previous girl immediately responded: "At that time, when Steward Zhu led people to Linglong Xiaozhu, I took a look from afar, and she did have a good appearance, not worse than our princess." ”

Although Qiao'er didn't hear the small talk in the kitchen, she did see the person being discussed. Shu Yue had just come over from the backyard to dry her clothes, and as soon as she saw her, she rushed up and grabbed the food box.

Qiao'er was surprised: "Are you a new girl?" ”

Shu Yue responded coldly, turned around and carried the food box to the front hall. Opening the lid and looking at the delicate dishes inside, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

Even in Hongshui Garden, she was cultivated as the top brand Le Ji because of her outstanding appearance, and she has always been worry-free about food and clothing, where do she usually do rough work such as laundry today.

Shu Yue was only busy for two hours before she finally washed a few pieces of clothes, and now she was hungry in her belly, but she held back and waited to see Ji Lingyun.

Bai Yanran and Ji Lingyun went to the front hall to eat, and Su Xin and Liu Xing'er were on the side. Ji Lingyun didn't notice Shu Yue, and he couldn't wait for a pair of red-spotted hands to serve a bowl of soup for himself, so he looked up in surprise.

Ji Lingyun was obviously stunned when she saw Shu Yue at first glance, Bai Yanran on the side had already noticed Shu Yue's small movements, and said on the side: "This is the girl recruited by Steward Zhu today, it just so happened that after Chunyi left, there was still a shortage of people around me and let her be on top, I heard that the prince still has some relationship with Shu Yue?" ”

The past had already made Ji Lingyun understand Shu Yue's heart, for fear that she would talk nonsense with Bai Yanran, so she hurriedly cleared up: "It's not like that, it's just that the old man once entrusted me to take care of one or two, and I don't know her well." ”

Shu Yue said to her relatives: "Shu Yue is lonely and misunderstood in Beijing, so she has no choice but to come to the prince, and please don't dislike Shu ...... The slave is clumsy. ”

As she spoke, she deliberately showed her hands full of red marks, and her beautiful eyes rippled with tears, and her appearance was really pitiful.

Shu Yue is used to being waited, where can she wash clothes, naturally she is clumsy and clumsy. She has always raised a pair of hands that pluck the strings delicately, and the slightest bump will leave a little red mark, which is shocking to look at.

Seeing this, Ji Lingyun frowned and looked at Shu Yue, Shu Yue's heart was agitated, the prince really still took pity on the jade.

"Since you can't even do this little thing, don't make a mess in the Linglong Building. If you really want to stay in the palace and do things, go to the kitchen and add firewood to the fire. ”

Shu Yue looked at Ji Lingyun in disbelief, she couldn't believe that the prince who had always pitied the fragrance and cherished the jade would let him be a fire girl!

Seeing that Shu Yue was stunned on the spot, Ji Lingyun's brows furrowed even deeper, and said, "Don't you even know how to burn a fire?" ”

Su Xin on the side couldn't help but laugh out loud, Shu Yue was ashamed but could only endure it.

Bai Yanran had enough of the good show, so she put down her chopsticks and said, "Since it was entrusted by the ancients, it's not good for her to be a fire girl, so stay by my side." Su Xin and Zhu Ling are both neat hands and feet, just teach her more in the future. ”

Ji Lingyun looked at Bai Yanran's face, and couldn't figure out her mind for a while, and she didn't know the taste of the food she ate at a meal.

It was completely dark, but the storeroom was brightly lit.

Xiaoba led the girls and mothers-in-law to gather all the things together, Ah Ruan and Zhu Ling checked them one by one according to the roster, and they were busy until midnight, but there was no relaxed look on the faces of the three girls.

Xiaoba and Ah Ruan both looked at Zhu Ling, Zhu Ling was calm on her face, but she didn't know that her nails were stuck in the flesh. Xiaoba saw a little bloodshot overflowing from her palm, and couldn't bear to say, "Sister Zhu Ling, you ......"

Zhu Ling smiled reluctantly, turned around and went to Linglong Xiaozhu.

In the study, Bai Yanran was leaning on the chaise longue, Ji Lingyun was standing in front of the table and tracing carefully, and the beauty pictures in her pen gradually took shape, vivid and vivid.

Zhu Ling raised her voice outside the door: "Lord, princess, the treasury has been counted, do you want the slave maid to come in and report?" ”

Ji Lingyun just dropped the last stroke, picked up the drawing paper and admired it carefully. Bai Yanran sat up, straightened her clothes and said, "Come in." ”

Zhu Ling pushed the door in, and Ji Lingyun also put down his pen and looked over. Bai Yanran took the album she presented, saw that there were four places marked with ink, and asked, "What is the result?" ”

Zhu Ling paused, looked up at Bai Yanran and replied, "Not only the luminous cup, but also three treasures were also lost." ”
