Chapter 245: Planting
As he spoke, the peach came out of nowhere.
"What are you doing, girls?" Peach poked her head out and asked curiously.
Qiaoci's gaze lifted and landed on the five palm prints on her face, and she couldn't help but be stunned. Yubi was certainly angry with Xiang Tao, but she didn't expect her hands to be so heavy, and the five bright red palm prints were clearly visible.
Qiaoci was anxious, and she didn't have time to deal with Xiangtao, so she said lightly: "It's nothing, I lost something, Qingwen and I are busy looking for it." Is there anything you have come here for? ”
It's a good night, what is this girl going to do.
Since he was beaten, he should recuperate in the house. This look came out, this is to let everyone in the house know that she was beaten by Yubi. Qiao Ci couldn't figure out why.
That's it, the most important thing at the moment is to find the earrings, and the rest of the matter, don't worry about it so much.
Qiao Ci was going to look elsewhere, but heard Xiang Tao say, "So you lost something in the house, and sure enough, I knew it would be like this."
Hearing this, Qiao Ci looked at Xiang Tao again, grabbed her arm and asked, "What do you mean by this, do you know something?"
Because of the force, Xiangtao's arm was a little tightened by her, so she tried to break free: "Miss Qiaoci, you hurt me."
Qiao Ci realized her actions and let go of her hand. Soon, she calmed down, looked the peach up and down, and suddenly had a thought in her heart, feeling that the peach came over at night.
Seeing this scene, Qingwen didn't want Qiaoci to be anxious, and also said, "If you know anything, tell us."
The earrings were given by the master, and there was no bracelet before, if even this one was gone, I don't know how sad Qiaoci would be. Qingwen knows that Qiaoci has always respected Miss Da in her heart, and the things she gave are naturally very cherished.
Xiang Taowu sighed to herself and said, "Okay, I've always been soft-hearted, seeing that you are so anxious, I will tell you more."
Qiao Ci and Qing Wen listened quietly.
Xiangtao continued: "In the afternoon, I saw Yubi sneakily coming out of your house, and I don't know what she was doing when she entered your house, so I heard you say that the earrings are missing, and I don't know if it has anything to do with her. Originally, this matter had nothing to do with me, and I shouldn't be nosy, but I couldn't see what she was doing on a daily basis, so I took the risk to tell you. As he spoke, he clasped his hands together and began to plead with a look of pleading, "Anyway, I told you everything I know, but don't say that I told you, the province was known by Yubi, and I couldn't eat it and walked around." ”
Xiangtao kindly told her that Qiaoci would not talk nonsense everywhere, not to mention that she was not such a person.
"Don't worry, I won't say it, I hope the situation is as you say."
Qiao Ci also hopes that this matter has nothing to do with Peach.
As soon as the words fell, Qingwen opened her mouth and said: "Look, I'm right, this matter is really related to Yubi, why don't we go to the eldest lady and let her administer justice."
Qingwen can't wait to rush to Yubi's house now, come and get the stolen goods, and see how she will explain when the time comes.
Qiao Ci hesitated at this time: "But it's so late, if you disturb the eldest lady and the third prince to rest, what can you do?"
Hearing this, Qingwen also hesitated.
The eldest lady has already fallen asleep, and in the past moment, she must be noisy until she rests.
Seeing that the two of them were worried, the fragrant peach on the side rolled her eyes, and said quietly: "If you wait for Yubi to hide the things and then want to find them, I'm afraid it will be difficult, I think it's better to make a quick decision."
Qiao Ci frowned, shook her hand, and then made up her mind, and said to Qingwen: "Since this is the case, let's go find the eldest lady."
When the two maids went, Jin Zhao just lay down, and Yu Wenyu beside her always made her a little awkward, and when she heard that the two maids had something to do with her, she didn't want to get dressed.
Xu Li, Qiaoci and Qingwen knelt in front of Jin Zhao and Yu Wenyu, and said, "I'm sorry, it's really wrong to disturb the rest of the third prince and the imperial concubine so late."
Jin Zhao glanced at the two of them, and before she could speak, Yu Wenyu on the side spoke up first: "Since you know that it is an interruption, why do you knowingly commit it?"
Qiao Ci bit her lip and replied: "It's really a last resort, and I ask the third prince to forgive me." Subsequently, she told the truth about the cause and effect.
“…… Someone saw Yubi enter the slave maid's house with their own eyes, which had to make people suspicious, and the slave and maid had the courage to come back and forth after thinking backwards, disturbing the master's rest, and he was very sorry not to go. But if you don't report it, let the thief harm other people again, and spoil the atmosphere in the house, then it is the sin of the slave and maid. ”
After listening to Qiao Ci's words, Yu Wenyu raised his eyes to look at Jin Zhao with a calm face, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a faint smile, and said: "Madam, your maid's eloquence is good, no wonder Madame is so serious on weekdays."
Jin Zhao said lightly: "My husband has won the award, my honest maid is actually not eloquent, she just tells the truth about the facts, of course, she can't compare to some people."
Jin Zhao's words mean something.
Yu Wenyu's expression moved slightly, just listening to it, and didn't seem to take it to heart.
Jin Zhao raised his hand to let the two maids get up, and said to Yu Wenyu: "Since someone saw Yubi enter Qiaoci's house with his own eyes, but the earrings I gave this girl were missing at this time, it is very suspicious, in order to prove his innocence, it is better to let someone go to Yubi's house to search, if not, it is better to return her innocence, so as not to fall into the mouth and attract gossip." Since my husband asked me to take care of the house, of course I hope that the people in the house are innocent, if there is really any person with unclean hands and feet, which makes people panic, it also makes other people in the house feel uneasy. ”
Yu Wenyu nodded and said, "Madam is reasonable, just do what you say."
Yu Wenyu's simplicity surprised Jin Zhao for a while.
She subconsciously looked at the other party, and saw him sitting on the side with a light face, and the doubts in her heart were added to it for no reason.
Subsequently, Jin Zhao ordered someone to search Yubi's house, and the movement was loud, attracting the bystanders of the people in the house.
Who knows, the earrings were actually searched out of Yubi's house.
Yubi was dumbfounded, and she knelt in front of Jin Zhao in a daze and shouted injustice: "The imperial concubine is wronged, not a slave, the slave didn't steal Qiaoci's earrings, and it's not about the slave."
Jin Zhao sneered: "Unrelated? If not, how do you explain the contents of your house? ”
Yubi choked for a while, how could she know that the earrings would be in her room, she explained: "Someone must have planted it, yes, someone must have wanted to frame the slave maid, so she put things into the slave's house, the earrings have nothing to do with the slave maid, and please ask the imperial concubine to check it."
