Chapter 128: The Money Is Lost

Qin Wangfu

Liu Shuiju, since Mu Qingyan came back alone, there were a lot fewer guards guarding Liu Shuiju in the past, he should have believed that she would not have the idea of escaping, this is indeed good news for her.

She won the bet.

However, she was still worried that if he found out that he had been with other men for the past few days, she couldn't imagine what he would be like if he knew what would happen if he deceived him......

The fawn rummaged through the cabinets, as if looking for something important.

"Huh...... Strange, why is it gone? I remember putting it in this position! Xiaolu scratched her cute head, and the wardrobe turned upside down, but she couldn't find the silver that Mu Qingyan handed her that day.

Isn't it? Didn't you put it in the cupboard? The fawn looked around again in the cabinets.

Mu Qingyan had just returned from the study and entered the door with gentle steps. Seeing a fawn in a light pink dress, pouting and shaking, as if looking for something, half of his whole body reached into the wardrobe.

"Fawn, what are you doing? What about demolishing the house? Mu Qingyan asked exaggeratedly.

In fact, it's just that the folded clothes are a little messy. The house was not demolished either.

"Miss, the silver you gave me that day! Gone......". The fawn turned her head when she heard the sound, looking unaware of what was wrong, but with a look of guilt that she had done something wrong.

Mu Qingyan cut her air bangs, and the whole person had a little more aura. This is the immaturity that a teenage girl should have.

"Oh - goneβ€”β€”!!" Mu Qingyan didn't have an idea, and when she reacted, the loud voice almost broke the deer's eardrums.

"How could it be, how could it not be seen?!"

This money was obtained by her. The carpenter's salary is over, but there are still many places where the money needs to be used, such as the salary of the embroiderer, the silver taels for buying cloth, and so on......

Her money has always been kept by Xiaolu, of course, she does not suspect Xiaolu of stealing.

"Miss, I've really searched all over there, but I haven't found it." With tears in his eyes, he felt guilty for his dereliction of duty.

"Could it be that you forgot somewhere, look for it."

"I've searched all over the place, but I can't find it." The fawn cried urgently, tears like a fountain, and he looked like he blamed himself. I don't know what to do, but this is the young lady's hard-earned money, and she lost it.

"Alright, alright...... Don't worry, we're looking for it. "That day the fawn put the money in the closet, and she saw it. Since neither of them is mistaken, there is only one possibility......

"Xiaolu, these days, is there anyone who has come to our Liushuiju?"

The deer stopped crying and thought about Yaoyao's head. It was impossible for Li'er to steal, she only served the young lady for a few days, and the rest of the time was in the hall, and she did not live with them.

That girl has been less daring than she has ever had since that happened. How dare you take the master's things, so Xiaolu quickly ruled out her suspicion.

"That's right, Miss! Aren't there a few maidservants who are waiting for you to bathe? They have been here, and they have spent some time in Liushuiju in the days when they took care of you...... "Although she believes in Li'er, she can't prove that she didn't take the money.

After she came back from Aishangyi closet that day, she smelled the fragrance of the young lady on her body, and asked to know that the prince disliked the young lady, and then sent a bunch of people to serve the bath, if at that time, the money was stolen, there is this possibility, but if not, then the money lost is equivalent to looking for a needle in a haystack.

Mu Qingyan was thoughtful.

It seems that there is indeed such a thing, after Gu Fenglan gave her the medicine that day, she didn't want to leave, she had to lie, telling him that she hadn't bathed for several days, and her body smelled dirty.

As a result, when the man heard this, he immediately ran away, causing her to be tossed by those handmaids, and she didn't even sleep well.

Mu Qingyan ordered Xiaolu to ask people to find the person who was bathing her a few days ago. and told her not to let anyone else know.

To say, it is possible that the money will be taken by one of them.

After a while, the fawn moved quickly, and they came in one after another, and Li'er was also suspicious because she had served her here for a while.

In the Liushui Residence, the green leaves of the large trees with split limbs shade the sunlight.

On the swaying of the vines, Mu Qingyan lazily crossed Erlang's legs. There was a strange smell in the air, and it was so cold that the maids standing in a row in front of them didn't feel a bad premonition.

Xiaolu stood beside Mu Qingyan, looking forward to how the young lady would find out the pickpocket who stole the money.

Mu Qingyan took a bite of the apple carelessly. She lifted her eyelids and glanced at the handmaid in front of her.

The breeze blew all the melon seeds on the plate and landed everywhere they stood. Just listening to the rustling sound of the leaves, the whole annex seemed to be enveloped in an eerie atmosphere.

The sun is scorching, but it is so cool that it is frightening......

Mu Qingyan got up and put his hands behind his back.

"Did you know? What is the so-called call of this princess today? Mu Qingyan carefully observed each of them's every move.

He didn't even let go of his eyes.

"The slave doesn't know." The people answered honestly.

"Oh...... It's not a big deal, it's just that a few days ago, the princess had a particularly important thing missing, so ......" Before she finished speaking, the maids knelt on the ground and begged for mercy and cried out.

The cruel feudal antiquity made the maids learn to beg for mercy at the first time.

Mu Qingyan seemed to have expected everything now. still has an attitude that others can't see through: "I just said that the thing is missing, and I didn't say that you took it?" What does this do? "How is it that she has a kind of victim who has lost something, but at the moment she is an aggressive bad person?

Mu Qingyan circled around them a few times, talking as he walked, his eyes always paying attention to the changes in each of their bodies.

"The slave and maid are wronged, ask the princess to investigate!"

"Is it wronged, but it's not me who has the final say, it's the evidence that has the final say, I'm a reasonable person who pays attention to people and stolen goods, things are lost and recovered, now every one of you is suspicious, I don't alarm the prince, I want to solve it myself, but if you refuse to cooperate, then you will be handed over to the prince at the disposal of the prison cell...... It's not as easy to talk as this princess! ”

There was a bit of threat in the words, but she was already hinting at it, obediently hand over her money, and the matter was over.

But if she doesn't admit it, then don't blame her for being polite.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was an uproar. The maidservants are discussing in detail who stole the princess's beloved treasure?

One of the servant girls stood out from the crowd, "The princess and slave really didn't take your things, we were wronged." Slaves can swear! One of the maidservants immediately denied it, as if it really had nothing to do with her.

Mu Qingyan had some impressions of this girl, she almost broke her wrist and kicked her.

"Are you wronged, you know for yourself, but you can't deny that they are wronged? Right? ”

After listening to it, Huanxi seemed to feel that there was some truth. Obviously, she had an attitude of not admitting herself, so that she was perfectly exposed, which also attracted Mu Qingyan's attention.

"I'll give you a chance now, and then, you must answer everything I ask truthfully, and you must not hide it." It was a bit of an unquestionable tone, the maid had already been trembling with fright by the aura emanating from her body, who would dare to hide it without dying?

They all want to find out the hateful thief who stole the princess's things.

With a cry of "The slave is willing, cooperate with the princess." Find out the thief."

Although Huanxi is willing to cooperate with everyone else, the emotions on her face are obviously different from other maids.

The corners of Mu Qingyan's mouth rose as if he had reached the object of suspicion, and then began to torture his soul.

"On that day, you were ordered by the prince to come and bathe me? Right? ”

They all nodded.

Very nice, very cooperative, she was satisfied. Continue asking, "Is there anyone among you who has behaved unusually, or who has ever left your sight?" ”

"Back to the princess, that day we went to the bed to call you after we entered the door and poured hot water, as for who left, there were too many people and I really didn't pay attention at that time."

After the maid answered, Mu Qingyan's eyes never left the person she suspected, but now her face didn't seem to have the same nervousness as just now, but what appeared was that the maid said just now that she didn't see anyone out of sight, and her emotions were much calmer at the moment.

"Okay, I see?"

The maidservant's answer was still the same, Mu Qingyan knew that they were not hiding it, and in that case, no one would notice.

Fortunately, it is not without gains, now she has an object of suspicion, but now is not the time to debunk.

She told the maidservants to go back, and explained that she could not tell anyone about today's events.
