Chapter 118: Trespassing in the harem
The Shang Palace Bureau was in a mess up and down, and after looking for another hour, he couldn't find the whereabouts of the crown, which almost alarmed Jin Wuwei in the palace.
When verifying the entry and exit records of the Shanggong Bureau, there were almost no suspicious people, and Su Shanggong also said that there would never be any internal ghosts.
Then this is strange, don't tell Qin Huai that this crown will turn into a butterfly and fly away.
Under Qin Huai's eyes, Mingyue stepped forward and took the record book of the recent entry and exit of the Shanggong Bureau, and saw the name of a suspicious person at a glance.
Qin Yue.
"Why did the county lord come to the Shanggong Bureau the day before yesterday?"
Qin Huai handed the booklet to Caixia and raised his eyes to look at Su Shang Palace, as if he had found the thief.
Su Shanggong wiped the sweat on his forehead, the wedding crown of the three princesses was stolen and taxed, everyone in the palace knew that this wedding banquet was Tianyu's first feast this year, and no one dared to make a mistake at this time, but their Shanggong Bureau encountered such a tricky thing.
In case the queen is to blame, she, as a Shang Palace, will definitely bear the brunt.
"On that day, the county lord entered the palace to ask the queen mother, and I heard that the county lord was angry and in a bad mood, so the mother asked us to make two new clothes for the county lord."
Angry?
What kind of anger can it be, it must be Qin Huai's anger in the Ming and Qing Dynasty Restaurant.
But since then, her suspicion has become even greater.
Qin Huai was about to say more, but Caixia suddenly interrupted her thoughts.
"Princess, these days, people from almost every palace have come to the Shang Palace Bureau to receive clothes and pack up, should we ......?"
Caixia flipped through the records of coming to the Shanggong Bureau in the last seven days, but found that Qin Yue was not the only suspicious person, and even Concubine An, Concubine Dong and others had been allowed to enter and exit twice.
Qin Huai glanced at the position of Caixia's finger, and probably knew what she meant, in fact, this mistake may not need her to solve it, and if she wants Mu Guanqing to investigate, she will definitely find the murderer as soon as possible.
"Since the Shanggong Bureau has lost such an important thing, then why don't you report it to the female official and let her deal with this matter, I think the murderer can be found out as soon as possible and the Shanggong Bureau is innocent."
As soon as he heard the news, it was as if everyone in the Shanggong Bureau had been sentenced to a serious crime, and no one did not kneel down and ask for his life.
"No, no, no! The princess is gracious, our Shanggong Bureau will definitely investigate this matter to the end, and it will not delay the wedding ceremony of the third prince, and please ask the princess for two days! ”
Su Shanggong's voice trembled for me, which was enough to witness that Mu Guanqing's name was not only outside the palace, but also well-known in the palace.
After all, he is the head of Dali Temple, and his methods are ruthless, and no one will want to go to the prison of Dali Temple to rest for a few days.
"That's right, princess, this matter is due to Ruan Sizhen's poor supervision, this is why something went wrong, if you want to punish her, punish her!"
Lu Sishe didn't care about Su Shanggong's attitude at all, and insisted that it was Ruan Sizhen's fault, and it had nothing to do with the Shanggong Bureau, let alone her.
Seeing that she wanted to be alone so much, Qin Huai didn't say a word and let them continue to quarrel.
Ruan Sizhen, who was already frightened of the six gods and no master, was even more furious when she heard this.
"You! I don't want this to happen to her, you shirk your responsibility so early, it's not you who caused me harm. ”
With her answer, Lu Sishe knelt on the ground and was also energetic, and he even shirked mercilessly in front of all the female histories of the Shanggong Bureau.
"Heh, it's really funny, you, as the Si Zhen of the Si Zhen room, didn't do your part well, which caused our Shang Palace Bureau to lose face, do you dare to bite back here?"
"I naturally know how important this matter is, after the completion of this last version of the crown three days ago, I deliberately asked people to take strict care of it, I never expected that someone would deliberately frame it!"
"Deliberately framed, why don't others frame Hu Sishan and Lan Sizhen, but want to frame you Ruan Sizhen, have you ever thought about it? It must be that you are not in the right position, and your words are wrong, how can a person like you continue to be Si Zhen by himself! ”
Lu Si has never been a firewood stove, for so many years, including at the state banquet, Liu Yanxin recalled the incident when the mother of the third prince, Ye Hanshuang, was framed.
In addition to bullying the soft and fearing the hard, and adding fuel to the fire, I don't think there will be anything else at all if I think of this Lu Sishi.
"Enough!"
Su Shanggong, who had been forbearing, finally couldn't stand it anymore, and almost roared out, and everyone held their breath.
"Do you still think that our Shanggong Bureau is not ashamed enough today?"
When he said the second sentence, Su Shanggong seemed to feel that he had lost his sense of proportion in front of Qin Huai.
But Qin Huai seemed to be used to it, and he didn't mean to interrupt their prevarication at all.
"None of us want to see this happen, it's all in such a situation, and we have to fall into the well in front of the princess! That's what I teach you? I don't ask the four divisions of the Shanggong Bureau to be able to work together, advance and retreat together, but if you do this, can you still be the head of the first division? ”
This reprimand is obviously to educate everyone in the Shanggong Bureau, but in fact, it is really a play for Qin Huai.
Su Shanggong was the senior in the palace in the end, and she thought that after she had punished Qin Huai, she would not continue to pursue it, but she was wrong.
Qin Huai has always been unreasonable, but now that the situation is unfavorable, it will inevitably be unfavorable to herself, maybe it is a game of chess specially given to her by God.
It's better to follow this game of chess to fulfill these people.
"Don't be angry in Sushang Palace, there have been a lot of things in the palace recently, and it is inevitable that his subordinates will be confused. Besides, the Shang Palace Bureau has been supporting the food and clothing of the entire harem, and it is exhausted when I think about it, how can I blame the heroes for a trivial matter? ”
Su Shanggong obviously didn't expect Qin Huai to speak so well, and the four divisions below were also shocked.
"Many of you have been watching Qin Huai grow up, Qin Huai naturally can't bear to be wronged, just said that he would hand it over to the female official to deal with, but he was just in a hurry. After all, this is a big event that can make my father and queen mother angry. ”
Since you want to make a play, you have to do it all, and you can't let this matter go the slightest wrong.
Qin Huai didn't wait for them to react, and then said: "Since Ruan Sizhen said just now that this is the last edition, then the princess wants to ask, are the previous editions still there?" Can we strive to complete the reproduction of this crown within a few days, so as to ensure that there will be no mistakes in the marriage of the three emperor brothers. ”
Ruan Sizhen originally thought that she would definitely die today, but now Qin Huai's words have made her turn the corner, how can she not grasp the reason.
"It's still the princess, you think thoughtfully, if you hurry up and stay up all night, you will definitely be able to make a crown exactly the same as the previous one in these three days."
With Ruan Sizhen's affirmation, Qin Huai was relieved.
"Princess Ben believes that Su Shang Palace must have the ability to thoroughly investigate the real cause of the theft of the crown, so Princess Ben will not be here to help. The four divisions can work together to help the Shanggong Bureau tide over the difficulties. ”
Qin Huai finally helped Su Shanggong up and said a word on the table.
In this way, Su Shanggong was very grateful, and hurriedly took everyone below to thank him here.
"Slaves, thank you, princess!"
I thought that this matter would be over now, but just as Qin Huai was about to go back, Caixia coughed lightly.
looked at Caixia's gaze, and only saw Lu Sishe, who was still unconvinced.
"In this case, this princess will treat this matter as if this has never happened, and the Shang Palace Bureau will never miss a word, and those who violate the order will be beheaded!"
Of course, this is for Lu Sishe, if this matter spreads, not only will she not be a good person, but I am afraid that she will be punished, and the murderer who caused the death of the mother concubine will not be even more found.
After hearing the affirmative answer, Qin Huai gave up and walked on the road out of the palace.
Suddenly, she remembered someone who had been by her side all along......
Zhao ...... Aunt Zhao. ”
Qin Huai turned around suddenly, only to find that Aunt Zhao had been quietly following him.
She hurriedly turned around, a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry, Aunt Zhao, the situation was urgent just now, and I forgot about you in a hurry, don't blame me." ”
But Aunt Zhao was not angry, but reasonably commented on Qin Huai's way of doing things just now.
"What did the princess say, how did the princess behave, the old slave all saw it, the princess was in danger, graceful and powerful, and the royal family was well-organized. It's really the true biography of the queen's mother, so why blame it? ”
True...... Are you sure?
The first time he was praised, Qin Huai was still a little unnatural.
She lowered her voice, as if she was coquettish, "Then will Aunt Zhao keep a secret for me?" ”
"Nature."
Although this matter has been temporarily relieved, it does not mean that Qin Huai will not investigate who is the person who is looking for her behind the scenes.
It is not so much that this matter is aimed at the Shanggong Bureau, but that this matter is directed at Qin Huai. Qin Yue was the most suspicious object, and the other people Qin Huai had offended could only be considered later.
Bidding farewell to Aunt Zhao for the time being, Qin Huai deliberately put his footsteps full, "Mingyue Caixia, return to the princess's mansion in a while, remember not to have people and expressions, and don't say anything, let's see if this county lord will go out first." ”
"Yes, Princess."
Mingyue agreed for the first time.
"Princess ......"
Caixia has not yet said anything about this matter, but stopped after walking for a short time.
Seeing her slightly nervous expression, Qin Huai understood what she meant.
I finally entered the palace, and no one has watched yet, and I don't know when I will be able to come in next time. Instead of sitting still, it is better to take this opportunity to take a good walk around the palace, and maybe you can still find the missing items from many years ago in the palace of the concubine.
"Let's go, let's go to Qiongying Palace!"
"Yes."
In fact, returning to the palace is Qin Huai's homecoming, and they are not trespassing in the harem, at most they are going to ask the queen to say goodbye.
Besides, there are fewer palace people along the way, there are no guards at all, and those palace maids don't dare to stop their feelings.
"Ouch, who is this, why are you so angry?"
A cozy female voice came out from behind him, and Qin Huai subconsciously looked back.
