Chapter 649: Grounded

"The slave maid remembered that it was the twenty-seventh of last month, and Qingyue went to the monk and said that Linghui Gong mainly used some silver, and Shanggong heard that even if he gave Qingyue twenty gold ingots."

Qingping raised his head and said calmly, she was very sure, and her eyes did not mean to dodge.

Looking at her like this, Murong Hui's heart couldn't help but tighten, she naturally knew how much Qingping hated her.

After all, if it weren't for her, with Qingping's unscrupulous style, most of them would have a good future.

It's a pity that now she has been reduced to a last-class palace maid, and she will never have a chance to turn over in this life, which is why she is so hysterical and embarrassing Murong Hui.

Even if she thought about it with her brain, even if she successfully framed Murong Hui, it would not make Murong Hui hurt her muscles and bones, she still had to do it.

For such a person, Murong Hui didn't want to be soft at all, she raised her head to look at Lin Yingxue, and said with a smile: "Auntie, do you remember the account book that Hui'er gave you?" Is it clear where every piece of silver goes? Twenty taels of gold is not a decimal number, and there must be traces to follow. ”

Lin Yingxue, who had been silent for a long time, nodded, she had already thought of this, and she knew that this matter had nothing to do with Murong Hui, and now she did this just to see whose pawn this Qingping was.

Sure enough, as soon as she nodded, she heard Princess Ling smile mockingly: "For ordinary people, twenty taels of gold is indeed quite a lot." But in this palace, it's not a big number, and it can be evenly distributed there. ”

Princess Ling said very directly that Murong Hui had evened out the silver from other places in the palace to fill the hole in the Shangfu Bureau.

According to her, Murong Hui must have the ability to control the entire palace, but in fact, Murong Hui is only trying to balance the forces of the entire palace, and has no ability to control any place at all.

Even if it's her east side hall, can't she fully grasp it?

However, Murong Hui can't say this directly, if she says it directly, it will be making it clear that she is incompetent.

"This palace has checked all the ledgers of this period, and there are no mistakes. There is no such thing as what you said, and there is no need for Hui'er to go to great lengths to snatch such a little money. ”

Listening to what she really said, Princess Ling obviously felt that Lin Yingxue was favoring Murong Hui.

She was angry, and she wanted to refute a few words, when she saw a female officer walk in.

The female official saluted everyone first, and then got up to look at Qingping.

Murong Hui glanced at this person, and saw that this female official was Qi Shangguan of the Shangfu Bureau, and her purpose for coming here was obvious.

"Back to the queen's mother, the slave maid has never given Princess Linghui silver, and the matter before the Shangfu Bureau is also the account book written by the slave maid with Mama Huang."

Qi Shangguan's face was calm, and he hung his head and his eyes showed a little panic.

Although this kind of thing has nothing to do with her, if it is not solved well, it is very likely to leave a bad impression on the queen mother.

"The slave maid definitely didn't lie, it was indeed Qi Shangguan who gave Qingyue a bag of gold."

After Qingping heard her words, his face suddenly became very ugly.

It was said before, Manager Qi will be on her side now, and they will correct Murong Hui together.

At this time, she said such words, which couldn't help but catch Qingping off guard, and Princess Ling on the side also clenched her veil, her eyes revealing a fierce light.

"Hui'er went to check the cloth wrapped in gold, which was used to make winter clothes for the second-class palace maids, and Qi Shangguan did not use this kind of material. If you can get these materials at your fingertips, it's Qingping you. ”

Seeing that Qi Shangguan had already spoken, Murong Hui said unhurriedly.

Chief Manager Qi lowered his head and glanced at the material on his body, and couldn't help but think that he really didn't have the material of a second-class palace maid.

But now Qingping happens to be a second-class palace maid, and the material she wears is the same as the material for silver.

Qingping panicked all of a sudden, but she quickly calmed down and said coldly: "Princess Linghui is too biased, there are more second-class palace maids in this palace, are they all suspicious?" ”

"Presumptuous, who gave you the guts to talk to His Highness like this!"

Seeing her like this, Qingyue couldn't help but scold.

"If you commit a crime below Qingping, you will be sent to the Criminal Division to receive punishment. Since Princess Linghui had never taken the twenty taels of gold, now she will find out who buried the gold in the flower bed in the east side hall. ”

Lin Yingxue saw that the matter was almost settled, so she spoke.

"Queen Mother, I'm afraid this is inappropriate."

As soon as Princess Ling heard that Murong Hui had not been affected at all this time, she was in a hurry.

"It turns out that this matter has nothing to do with Hui'er."

Seeing her say this, Lin Yingxue put down the teacup in her hand, and her eyes showed a little impatience.

Princess Ling originally wanted to say something, but was stopped by the princess on the side.

Then they got up and walked away, as if they didn't care about the outcome.

But Murong Hui knew that this matter would definitely not be so easy.

If they could let her go so easily, they wouldn't have bothered to deal with her.

"Auntie, Hui'er feels that if this is arranged, Hui'er will still not be able to clear the suspicion, so it is better for Auntie to enter Hui'er for a few days until you find the suspect."

Lin Yingxue originally felt that it was not good to solve this matter like this, but she didn't want to hurt Murong Hui, knowing that this matter had nothing to do with Murong Hui.

She thought for a moment, then nodded, and said, "Pass the order, Princess Linghui will be grounded from today until the palace finds out the truth." ”

Murong Hui saw that Qingping was taken away by someone with a gagged mouth, so he nodded, got up and walked out of Fengyi Palace, and returned to the East Side Hall to be grounded.

In the next two days, Murong Hui stayed in the east side hall, busy practicing calligraphy and reading, and lived a very leisurely life.

The gossip about her outside has gone crazy for the past two days, and even if no one tells her, she has expected it a long time ago.

"Your Highness, this is what Zhao Yu Gongzi asked the slave to bring to you."

On the evening of the second day of being grounded, Murong Hui was looking at the book when she saw Qingyan quietly coming over, took out a paper bag from her arms, and handed it to Murong Hui.

Murong Hui took the paper bag, and after opening it, she saw that there were six pieces of dim sum inside, and the workmanship of the dim sum was very exquisite, exuding a sweet fragrance.

When Murong Hui saw it, he smiled and picked up a piece of dim sum, took a bite, and the sweet, soft and glutinous feeling instantly spread out in his mouth, and his mood seemed to be much better than before.

"Didn't he say anything?"

She couldn't help but feel warm in her heart, knowing that Zhao Yu was afraid that she would be unhappy, so she sent snacks to comfort her.

"Zhao Yu Gongzi said that he found a book that His Highness must like, and he will give it to you when His Highness comes out."

Qingyan opened her mouth honestly.
