A servant muttered quietly, his eyes still glancing at Concubine He and Concubine Lu.

For a while, all the servants around exchanged their heads and looked at the two new side concubines with strange eyes.

Concubine He was a little overwhelmed, she couldn't help waving her hand and shaking her head.

"Don't guess, it's not us, absolutely not."

After speaking, she turned around and tugged at Concubine Lu's sleeve vigorously, looking anxious.

"Sister, you can say something! Otherwise, everyone else will treat us like thieves. ”

Concubine Lu glanced at Concubine He with cold eyes, and her sleeves were deliberately pulled back.

"What is the panic, the clear ones are self-clearing, and the turbid ones are self-turbid."

She held her head high, holding a fan, and fluttered again and again.

Hearing this, Concubine He wanted to cry without tears, she turned her head and looked at Shen Ruoxiao aggrievedly.

"Princess, don't listen to people's nonsense, the concubine has definitely not done anything like stealing chickens and touching dogs."

Shen Ruoxiao sneered, she glanced at Concubine He with an expressionless face, and stretched out her hand to stop her desire to step forward.

"This princess is not a person who listens and believes partially, and without conclusive evidence, this princess will not wronged a good person."

After speaking, she deliberately looked at Concubine Hu and Okra, and her tone became a little heavier, "But I won't let go of a demon person." ”

Concubine Hu panicked when she was shocked by Shen Ruoxiao's sharp eyes, and she involuntarily clenched the skirt on her side.

Shen Ruoxiao is as good as she can bluff people, she must be calm, calm down, and not mess with herself.

Just thinking about it, she stepped forward with a flick of her skirt.

"How can there be a thief who doesn't recruit himself, I ask for a body search, a house search."

After saying that, she reached behind her back without a trace and hooked her finger towards okra.

Okra immediately understood her intentions, and hurriedly stepped forward to stand beside Concubine Hu.

"Yes, you have to search your body and your house to find out the thief."

After she finished speaking, she turned her eyes to look at Shen Ruoxiao nervously, and when she saw Shen Ruoxiao smiling lightly and not commenting, she became bolder.

"Princess, Okra is willing to do this search for you."

Hearing this, Shen Ruoxiao hooked the corners of his mouth, sneered, and then gently closed his eyes to show his agreement.

"Okay! That's hard work for you. ”

She wants to see how long Concubine Hu's self-directed and self-acted play will be sung?

Shen Ruoxiao watched coldly, clasped his arms with both hands, and raised his eyebrows leisurely.

Seeing this, Okra was overjoyed, and she raised her eyes to wink at the servants in her skirt.

"For the sake of justice, you can go with me and search!"

Hearing this, seven or eight men and women in the crowd stood up and lined up in front of okra.

A bunch of people were about to set off, but they were stopped by Concubine He and Concubine Lu.

"What do you mean? Do you really think we did it? ”

Concubine Lu elegantly put down the fan in her hand, and her cold temperament exuded.

After speaking, she stepped forward respectfully and bowed to Shen Ruoxiao and Xuanyuan Haoying.

"Although I'm not the thief you say, it's still a bit inappropriate to search our room casually!"

Shen Ruoxiao raised her eyebrows, looked at Concubine Lu with some appreciation, and a smile flowed from the corner of her eyes.

"This princess believes in you as a person, but your words are terrifying."

Hearing this, Concubine He directly pushed away Concubine Lu and ran to Xuanyuan Hao's legs.

"Lord Wang, you have to believe in the concubine! We have been wronged. ”

After speaking, she looked at Concubine Hu with a resentful look, and her thin red lips squirmed twice unconsciously.

A little concubine actually wanted to splash dirty water on them, which was simply sinister.

Concubine Hu felt the hostility from Concubine He, her heart was empty, she took a deep breath, and calmed down.

"Concubine He, are you making these remarks a thief? I haven't done it, why are I afraid to search! ”

Concubine He glared at Concubine Hu viciously, she got up and pulled Xuanyuan Hao's arm, and kept stomping her feet.

"Lord Wang, look at Concubine Hu, she is sure to be a concubine!"

Xuanyuan Hao smiled lightly and reached out enough to reach the bewitching little face of Concubine He.

"Don't worry about concubines, you are not afraid of shadows, let them search for them!"

Seeing that the prince said this, Concubine He had to grit her teeth and twist the silk handkerchief in her hand with an aggrieved expression.

Suddenly, Shen Ruoxiao stood up, walked to the search team of okra with her hands behind her back, and carefully examined everyone who followed her.

It seems that these people have been bought by the okra girl, she has to make a note of this face, these people are not suitable to stay in the palace.

Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Liu Tingxi with a blank face on the side, and Shen Ruoxiao smiled slightly.

No one here has their own thoughts, only Sister Liu is really simple-minded.

After Shen Ruoxiao wrote down everyone, he deliberately raised his sleeves impatiently.

"Since you want to search it, hurry up, don't delay everyone's time."

Hearing this, okra raised her eyebrows at Concubine Hu, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but tilt up half a point.

"Then the slave and maid took the men with them." 33

Shen Ruoxiao also followed the team with Shui Su, and successively checked Concubine He and Concubine Lu.

The okra only dangled around the door, then closed the team, and then went straight to Concubine Liu's yard.

As soon as she arrived at Concubine Liu's courtyard, okra took the lead and went straight to Liu Tingxi's room.

"Everyone searches carefully, and we can't let go of any corner."

She deliberately raised her voice, and she couldn't stop glancing at Liu Tingxi and Shen Ruoxiao.

Today, I will come and get all the stolen goods, and see how Liu Tingxi quibbles!

Shen Ruoxiao snorted coldly, his eyes full of disdain.

Trying to deceive her with such a clumsy method is simply beyond my strength.

Okra's eyes hidden, and he raised his feet and went straight to the bottom of Liu Tingxi's bed, and directly bent his knees and reached out to take out the jade hairpin.

"Found it, found the hairpin." Okra held the hairpin, waved it twice in the air, and couldn't stop exclaiming.

When the hairpin was exposed in front of people, a trace of cunning flashed in Concubine Hu's eyes.

Now we must pull Liu Tingxi down!

Okra also held the hairpin a little proudly, and ran to Concubine Hu with an excited face.

"Master, your jade hairpin has been found, and it was stolen by Concubine Liu."

Hearing this, everyone was in an uproar, and then turned to Liu Tingxi with a disdainful gaze.

"I didn't expect it to be Concubine Liu, seeing that she doesn't fight or grab on weekdays, I didn't expect it to be this kind of person."

"Yes! That's what it means that people should not be disfigured! ”

For a while, the palace was full of voices condemning Liu Tingxi.

Liu Tingxi's innocent eyes were full of panic, and she looked at the people around her left and right, completely at a loss.

"It's not me, it's not me, believe me!"

She struggled to explain, and the tears in the corners of her eyes were clearly visible.

How could this hairpin be in her room?

Liu Tingxi squatted down with his head in his hands, shaking his head desperately.

Concubine Hu sneered, she took the jade hosta, twisted her waist and walked to Liu Tingxi, looking down at her.

"Concubine Liu, I didn't expect it to be you, I still treat you as a sister, you actually did such a thing."

At this time, Liu Tingxi could no longer defend herself, she could only shake her head desperately, and finally looked at Shen Ruoxiao helplessly.

"Princess, please believe me, it's really not me!"

Without waiting for Shen Ruoxiao to speak, Concubine Hu pushed down Liu Tingxi.

"Don't pretend to be pitiful, this time I will let the prince administer justice for me, and punish you, a sanctimonious person."

Liu Tingxi was originally a well-informed lady, and her body was weak, and an unsuspecting push made her fall to the ground.

The waist was shaking and aching, the two hands were grinding on the ground and there were bloodshots, and the originally gentle and generous hairstyle was scattered at this time.

"I really didn't steal anything from you, and I don't know why it's under my bed, trust me!"

Liu Tingxi sat weakly on the ground, tears rolling down her pale cheeks.

If she had known, she should have been more resolute and forced to die.

She shouldn't have been unbearable with her father and mother, gave up Zhou Lanyu, and came to such a tiger and wolf.

Seeing that the matter with her sweetheart has already been raised, she also tries to stay in her room and never go out to cause trouble, but after all, she still can't hide.

If it is really planted this time, I am afraid that it will be cut in two, and it will be impossible.

Shen Ruoxiao looked at Liu Tingxi, who was sitting on the ground and weeping silently, and his heart was like a broken five-flavor bottle.

She stepped forward and helped Liu Tingxi up neatly, and comforted in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, you can't listen to one person's words in this matter, of course, you have to find out carefully, if you are innocent, you will never be wronged, if someone wants to make a hindrance, don't blame me for not sparing!" ”

Hearing this meaningful passage, Concubine Hu shivered uncomfortably and took back her chaotic eyes.

Seeing that Shen Ruoxiao was still willing to believe in himself in such a difficult situation, Liu Tingxi felt a warm current in his heart, and tears fell again.

"Princess, thank you for your understanding, although I am stupid, it doesn't mean that I will be beaten and wronged, this matter must be investigated!"

"What's there to look into in this matter? The evidence is there, that is, she stole my jade hairpin, could it be that the princess wants to cover it up? ”

Seeing that things were about to take a turn again, Concubine Hu was in a hurry at the moment.

Shen Ruoxiao nodded lightly and said with a smile: "It is because this matter is very important, so we should be cautious and investigate carefully, so if the wronged person spreads, wouldn't it mean that our Haowang Mansion cares about people's lives?" ”

"But, but ......" Concubine Hu wanted to say a few more words to stop her, but she was stopped by Shen Ruoxiao's fierce eyes.

"Now, let me talk about the suspicions in this matter, and also give a good analysis to those of you present."

Shen Ruoxiao slowly raised his head and looked at the people in front of him, observing everyone's expressions.

"Okra, first of all, I want to ask you why you went straight under the bed as soon as you entered Concubine Liu's room? With so many chests of drawers, some even locked, wouldn't it be safer to hide there? ”

When these words came out, cold sweat broke out on Okra's forehead.

Yes, I was so anxious at the time, I just wanted to ask for merit and reward quickly, which was really hasty!

"That's, that's because Concubine Liu's bed is conspicuous, and I'll be the first to pay attention......" Okra made up a reason to try to get by.

"Hehe, your girl's head is turning very fast, but it's a pity that you have already shown your feet in the past. Then let me ask you again, what did you sneak into Concubine Liu's room two days ago?! ”

"I, I didn't, the princess was wronged!" Okra hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and her heart fluttered with fright.

She looked at Concubine Hu with a pleading look, but she never thought that Concubine Hu would turn her head away, as if she didn't know her.
