Zhi Tao was stunned for a moment, looked down at randomly, and suddenly became so frightened that her feet became weak, and she involuntarily knelt down, shaking her head and explaining desperately: "The slave doesn't know, the slave and the maid didn't do anything, really didn't do anything!" ”

Everyone also looked in the direction of Gong Tianyao's finger, and saw a piece of green jade carved peony around the waist of the peach, which was moist and transparent, and the carving was fine, which was really the top grade in jade.

As the palace maid beside Concubine Zhang, Zhi Tao naturally has countless opportunities to be rewarded by the master, and it is not surprising that she can have such a quality jade pendant, but Princess Nan'an's question made this inconspicuous jade pendant suddenly pay attention.

Zhang Guifei, who was still very calm just now, had changed her face, gritted her teeth and secretly scolded herself for being a useless palace maid, before she suppressed the anger that was constantly churning in her heart, and said to Gong Tianyao: "Although my girl is a slave who can't get on a high platform, but around me, I haven't seen anything good, like this jade pendant, we Lu Dai Palace are afraid that no one can look at it." How could my girl steal a jade pendant from you? ”

Gong Tianyao smiled and replied: "Don't be angry, concubine, I didn't say from beginning to end that your palace maid stole my jade pendant, I just wanted to ask me why this jade pendant came to her." ”

As he spoke, his expression turned gloomy, and his voice sounded a little sad: This jade pendant is a relic left by my mother, since my mother died, it has been with me, and it has been with me for ten years, although it is not as valuable as those treasures in your palace, but for me it is not worth much money. ”

When the emperor and queen heard this, their faces showed unbearable expressions, and Song Zhao couldn't take his eyes off Gong Tianyao to tell about the sad past, and Gong Tianyao occasionally turned his head to look at him when he spoke.

It's just that looking at those dark and deep eyes, Rao is a person like Gong Tianyao has no way of knowing the true thoughts hidden in his heart.

Gong Tianyao turned her gaze, looked at Zhi Tao, and continued to say quietly: "I carry this bracelet, and it feels as if my mother is still by my side and protects me......"

When Zhi Tao heard this, goosebumps all over his body rose, and he couldn't help but tremble, and immediately hurried to untie the jade pendant, but the jade pendant was tied to a dead knot, which was both unsightly and difficult to open, and the more anxious Zhi Tao was, the more lawless he was, and he was sweating profusely, and he couldn't understand the words.

"The slave really doesn't know ......"

"This jade pendant ......"

She couldn't say anything to excuse herself, but now she really jumped into the Yellow River and couldn't wash it away, even she didn't know how Princess Nan'an's jade pendant could come to her, obviously ......

Thinking of this, she stopped the movements in her hand: Could it be true that Princess Nan'an just said, this jade pendant has become spiritual because of her mother's relics and the fact that she has been with her for ten years, and seeing that she wants to frame the princess, this is a manifestation to stop herself?

Everyone saw that Zhi Tao was dumbfounded and motionless, and thought that she was going to admit her mistake and beg for mercy, Zhang Guifei's eyes were full of anger at this time, and she pointed at Zhi Tao and scolded: "Don't explain it to the princess quickly, what the hell is going on!" ”

As soon as Zhi Tao raised her head tremblingly, she saw Zhang Guifei's expression in fierce eyes distorting her eyes towards herself, she hurriedly lowered her head, knelt down at Gong Tianyao's feet and shouted wronged.

Gong Tianyao is not in a hurry, anyway, there is time to consume her, and she didn't play the game of cat and mouse back then. She asked slowly, "You return the jade pendant to me first." ”

Zhi Tao listened, and hurriedly tore the belt of the jade pendant again, and finally tore it off, holding it high above his head with both hands and handing it to Gong Tianyao, Gong Tianyao took it, put it in his palm and rubbed it for a long time, and his eyes when he looked at the jade pendant became much softer and kinder, as if he was not looking at an ordinary jade pendant.

Zhi Tao peeked at it, and became more and more flustered, and he couldn't help but believe the absurd and nonsensical things, only to hear Gong Tianyao say again: "Actually, not only my jade pendant has spirituality, but also Zhang Guifei's bracelet, believe it or not, as long as I ask, it can tell in front of all of us how he came to me from Lu Dai Palace." ”

Cold sweat soaked her entire back, Zhi Tao's psychological defense finally collapsed, she couldn't hold on any longer, her body was weak, and she knelt at Gong Tianyao's feet, and she couldn't even shake her head.

"Nonsense!" Zhang Guifei stood up suddenly, pointed at Gong Tianyao and said angrily: "This palace originally heard that your dementia has been cured, and I am happy for you with satisfaction, but now I look at it, it is simply terminally ill, and the medicine is ineffective!" ”

The emperor coughed uncomfortably, looked at Zhang Guifei with an angry face, and said dissatisfiedly: "What are you talking about, Tianyao just wants to ask clearly, why are you so angry?" ”

Zhang Guifei's anger did not subside, but the emperor had already spoken, where did she dare to say half a word, so she had to turn her eyes to Zhi Tao and threaten her not to say anything that should not be said.

Zhi Tao knelt, her body trembled like chaff, where could she notice the hint given to her by her master, Gong Tianyao got the emperor's permission, and then continued to ask: "However, before I ask the bracelet, I still have a few words I want to ask Zhi Tao about you." How about you say that I have wronged you? ”

"The slave must tell the truth...... "Zhi Tao repeated this sentence, kowtowing like pounding garlic.

"Why did you think of looking at that irrelevant bracelet when you went back to get clothes for the concubine?" Gong Tianyao's tone suddenly became stern, and he stared at Zhi Tao and asked.

"Yes, it was the concubine who ordered the slave to take it......"

Zhang Guifei's face was suddenly extremely unsightly, and when she met the eyes of everyone, she had to reluctantly explain: "Bengong just suddenly remembered the bracelet and asked Zhi Tao to take it, what?" Isn't it okay to change a bracelet strap in this palace? ”

Gong Tianyao looked at her and smiled slightly: "Of course it's no problem." After finishing speaking, he turned to ask Zhi Tao: "Then why did you have to take a long detour to pass me when you left and came back twice, did you already know that the bracelet was here with me?" Or is this bracelet something you put here beforehand! ”

Zhi Tao trembled again, and kowtowed at Gong Tianyao's feet: "The slave didn't mean it, the concubine asked the slave to take the bracelet, and the slave and the maid went to get it, and the slave and the maid ate the bear's heart and leopard gall, and they didn't dare to slander the princess, it's a noble ......."

"Someone!" Zhang Guifei took the case, pointed at Zhi Tao and said angrily: "Don't pull down this cheap maid who stole the princess's jade pendant and tried to frame others!" ”

Zhi Tao was struck by lightning, turned to look at the master who ordered him to be killed, opened his mouth, but didn't say a word, only his face was red, as if he couldn't breathe, and he was gasping with difficulty.
