Chapter 319: Exoneration
Old Madam Qin's eyes flashed with a complicated light, and she stood up suddenly with a calm face, "This kind of thing happened in our dignified Qin Palace. ”
Old Madam Qin looked at Lu Yue and said, "Since Qing'er has that relic, you send someone to find it~"
Lu Yue smiled slightly and said, "Mother, don't worry for the time being, I have already sent someone to find it~"
Li Hu came back soon, took out an object in his hand, and said, "Old lady, princess, I found this~"
Seeing that it was a half-old purse, Zhao Qingliu's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly stepped forward, snatched the purse in Li Hu's hand, and held it tightly in his hand, looking quite cherished.
When Mrs. Qin saw the purse, her eyes suddenly flashed, and the whole person gradually sat down slowly, stretching out her hand to beckon Zhao Qingliu over, "It's that purse..."
I saw Zhao Qingliu pacing over carefully, and handed the purse in his hand to Mrs. Qin, Mrs. Qin glanced at it, and seemed to sigh: "I didn't expect that after so many years, you still keep this purse so well~"
That year, Xuan'er's mother passed away, and the Qin Wangfu suffered a lot of suppression, Feng'er was not smooth in the court, and she was so busy every day that her feet did not touch the ground, and she was the only one in the mansion with an old woman and a child waiting to be fed.
Zhao Qingliu was only nine years old at the time, and was led by an old woman to take refuge in them, she looked at this girl who looked lovely and pitiful, and said that this house was too lifeless, so she immediately nodded and let this girl enter the house.
Unexpectedly, in such a blink of an eye, ten years have passed, and this girl has grown up.
"Yes~" Zhao Qingliu wiped the wetness from the corners of his eyes pitifully.
"Then why didn't you come and tell me?" Old Madam Qin looked at Zhao Qingliu.
"I'm afraid, old lady, you are not in good health, Qing'er doesn't want to make trouble for you~" Zhao Qingliu said eagerly.
Old Madam Qin's eyes flashed slightly, and she said in her heart: Now that the matter has come to this point, this kind of thing still needs to be cut through the mess quickly, so as not to affect Qing'er's reputation.
She glanced at Lu Yue slightly, if she didn't care about this matter, with Lu Yue's temperament, she might not be able to find out any confused accounts, she would knock a few more words, and this matter would just let it pass~
If she manages it, her anger, these people below are naturally careful, and Feng'er is there, I'm afraid it will drag on for a long time, and when this matter gets out, it will not be good for them Qin Wangfu, a bold slave dares to coerce the master for a little silver, isn't it a joke?
And Lu Yue's current Feng'er gave her the princess's seal, but this group of minions who watch people and act, which one can convince Lu Yue, she handed over this matter to Lu Yue to manage, not only for Qing'er, but also for those maids and maids to see, who is the master of the house now? Let them do things in the future, and they should also weigh one or two.
After Old Madam Qin made up her mind, she turned her head to Lu Yue and said, "Now, Feng'er has handed over the princess's seal to you, you can deal with this matter, you remember, you have to consider this matter clearly, don't affect the reputation of Qing'er and our Qin Palace."
Lu Yue's eyes were slightly startled, she didn't expect Old Madam Qin to hand over this matter to her to deal with, after she was surprised, she hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Yes, mother~"
When Mrs. Qin saw that there was nothing to do, she waved her hand and motioned for everyone to step back~
Lu Yue wanted to say something, but saw that Old Madam Qin had already closed her eyes and recuperated, and she didn't want to say any more, so she had to salute respectfully and withdrew.
After a few people left, Old Madam Qin opened her eyes and sighed slightly, and Ji Lian's mother on the side hurriedly stepped forward to pour a cup of tea for Old Madam Qin.
Old Madam Qin took the teacup, took a sip of tea and put it down, looking thoughtful.
"Ji Lian, what do you think of this..."Old Madam Qin looked at Ji Lian's mother, although she was old, she was not confused, how did this thing sound...
Ji Lian's mother stepped forward with a smile, "Old lady, don't think too much, Miss Qing'er has grown up with us since childhood, not to mention Xuan'er." ”
Old Madam Qin smiled when she heard this, and said, "Hey, yes, I still remember that when Xuan'er was a child, she had a serious illness, and Qing'er took care of her day and night, but my old body can't stand it~"
"Yes, Miss Qing'er is really good to Xuan'er~" Ji Lian said.
"Oh, Ji Lian, go and pass on a message, so that Lu Yue will severely punish the person named Wang Cheng, who dares to slander the people of our Qin Palace~" Old Madam Qin said.
"Yes, old lady~ " Ji Lian's mother bowed and said.
Ji Lian's mother retreated in a few steps, hey, she sighed, this old lady is really well-intentioned, this matter is pushed by the old lady to the princess, that is, the big thing is small, but the old lady is not worried about the princess's temperament, if she bites it to death, then the old lady will not be able to get by.

Cheonggye-do
Lu Yue sat precariously, glanced at Zhao Qingliu, who had a bad face, and said to Li Hu on the side: "You go and find the housekeeper~"
"Yes, princess~" Li Hu retreated.
Lu Yue looked at the old-colored purse on the table, and then thought of Old Madam Qin's last attitude, could it be that there is still some story in this purse?
Lu Yue was right, this purse has a fate, this purse is embroidered by Zhao Qingliu's mother, she has one, the former princess also has such a one, Zhao Qingliu relied on this purse and a letter to win the gate of the Qin Palace, of course the old lady Qin remembers.
The housekeeper came soon, Lu Yue asked about Wang Cheng, and the time difference was not bad with what Zhao Qingliu said, he was promoted from an inferior servant feeding horses to a second-class servant, and it didn't take a few days.
Lu Yue found some little maids in Zhao Qingliu's yard again, and all said that this Wang Chengcheng was found by their young lady who lost her purse that day.
Could it be that this Wang Cheng really has nothing to do with Zhao Qingliu? Lu Yue was puzzled in her heart, and immediately asked someone to bring Wang Cheng up.
That Wang Cheng was bold when he looked at things before, but now when he looked at Lu Yue sitting on the upper seat, the whole person trembled.
"Wang Cheng, what do you say is the matter with your crowd gambling?" Lu Yue's eyes swept over Wang Cheng's eyes sharply.
"Princess.... The villain is short of money..."Wang Cheng looked sincerely frightened when he spoke.
"Who instructed you to say this~" Lu Yue's face suddenly changed, and he put the teacup on the table heavily.
"No.. No, Princess Mingjian, the villain was fascinated by the ghost for a while, so he did this kind of bastard thing, and the princess spared her life~" Wang Cheng said, and knelt down to give Lu Yue a big salute.
Lu Yue's gaze glanced at Li Hu, but Li Hu shook his head slightly towards Lu Yue.
Lu Yue's heart suddenly had a bottom in her heart, she knocked on the table twice, and said in a deep voice: "Come on, this Wang Cheng not only despises the rules of the palace, but also harasses the daughters of the palace, reprimands the twenty boards, and then drives people out of the mansion and never hires them." ”
"Yes~"
When Wang Cheng heard this, he suddenly became anxious, his whole face turned blue and gray, and the whole person trembled, and hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy: "Princess, you are doing well, spare me this time~"
Hearing this, a smile appeared on the corner of Lu Yue's mouth, and she raised her eyebrows slightly at Wang Cheng.
"Spare you?" Lu Yue glared at him, glanced at Wang Cheng lightly, and said, "Pull it down~"
"Yes~" Li Hu blocked Wang Cheng's mouth a few times.
"Woo~" Wang Cheng looked at Zhao Qingliu with pleading eyes, but Zhao Qingliu had a gray face and didn't even give a look.
Li Hu restrained the person with one hand and quickly dragged the person down.
The room was quiet again, Lu Yue glanced at Zhao Qingliu, and said softly: "Since you are not involved in this matter, but Wang Cheng is because of you, he is a slave and you are the master, you have this mistake of negligence, and please Miss Qing'er go back and think about it for a few days~"
Zhao Qingliu hung his head and said obediently: "Yes, princess~"
When the people left, Lu'er stepped forward and gave Lu Yue a cup of tea, but saw that Lu Yue didn't answer, "Miss, what's wrong with you?" ”
Lu Yue shook her head, she frowned and called Li Hu in, and told Li Hu to go to Cuimei Courtyard and tell Old Madam Qin the result of this matter, so that Old Madam could feel at ease.
Although Lu Yue still had some doubts in her heart about this matter, this matter must have a lot to do with Zhao Qingliu, but she knew in her heart that Old Madam Qin didn't seem to want to investigate any further, so she hurriedly handed over this matter to her to deal with.
In this way, she can only find out such a result and understand the matter, but maybe she thinks too much, Lu Yue holds the teacup and takes a sip of tea.
-----
On the second day, Lu Yue packed up her breakfast and went to the craftsman to discuss the birthday gift for the emperor's birthday banquet, which was the top priority, and it was all over the day.
She went out with Lu'er, and hurried towards the courtyard.
Along the way, Lu Yue was a little annoyed at first, because there were little maids on the road who kept saluting when they saw them, and it was no longer the same as before, and they would avoid them far away when they saw them.
What's even more exaggerated is that before Lu Yue and Lu'er got closer, those maids had already bowed obediently.
Lu Yue glanced at it casually, and those maids were so frightened that they trembled, and knelt on the ground with a "plop", which made Lu Yue more and more inexplicable.
"Lu'er, is there something going on in this house?" Lu Yue was puzzled.
Who knows, Lu'er's girl actually snickered, was glared at by Lu Yue, and immediately whispered: "Miss, it wasn't you who asked someone to clean up that little guy yesterday, this matter was spread, now, everyone knows that the old lady handed over the housekeeper's rights to you, Miss, you are the serious heroine of the house, and Miss Zhao... Hmph, no matter how powerful you usually are, this is not to obediently listen to Miss's words and think about it behind closed doors~"
"Ah~" Lu'er said triumphantly, her face suddenly hit her, she quickly stretched out her hand to cover her face, and looked at Lu Yue aggrievedly, why did Miss pinch her? She's telling the truth~
"Miss~" Lu'er said aggrievedly.
Lu Yue glanced at Lu'er and said, "Don't pay attention to these gossip, be careful of the trouble coming out of your mouth~"
"Yes, Miss~"
Seeing that Lu'er was so pitiful, Lu Yue immediately smiled funny, this girl is really, does it really hurt that much?
What Lu Yue didn't know, this matter was spread more and more widely, and in the end, the entire Qin Palace's subordinates knew, Lu Yue's thunderous methods, even Zhao Qingliu dared to rectify it, and also punished the maids and maids in that big courtyard for half a year.
