After speaking, Murong Yan took out a gold medal from his body and said: "Xiaoxiao, this is a gold medal arrow, if you see this thing, if you see me, your slave I have ordered someone to remove it, and you can return to the palace with this one day." ”

"Then can I rely on this thing to bring people into the palace at will?"

Murong Yan looked at Yuhua on the side, and thought in his heart that Su Xiao might want to take Yuhua into the palace: "Naturally, as long as it is not a big mistake, it can be." ”

"That's good. Su Xiao took the gold medal and looked at it, and applauded in his heart, so that he could directly take Ci'an into the palace when the time came.

Murong Yan looked at Su Xiao's happy appearance, his heart was bitter, and he asked in his heart, "Do you like Yuhua so much?"

To clean up the mood, it was close to midnight, and Murong Yan had to go to court early on the second day, so he returned to the palace early.

"That's it, there's a lot going on tonight, so let's go to bed early. As soon as Yuhua waved his sleeves, the utensils on the table disappeared, yawning, and preparing to go back to the room to rest, while Su Xiao held the gold medal and went back to the room to continue to study.

Inside the Imperial Study

After Murong Yan returned to the palace, he immediately ordered someone to announce Xiangqin from the Huanyi Bureau, and he was currently in the night trial.

"Are you Xiangqin?" Murong Yan's expression condensed.

"Back to the emperor, the slave and maid are exactly. Xiangqin didn't know why, thinking that the emperor summoned him late at night to sleep by himself, but he didn't know that he was actually thinking too much.

"Lin Quan. Murong Yan disdained to talk to Xiangqin and others about it, if it wasn't for Su Xiao, he wouldn't have interrogated him personally, and Lin Quan would do the rest for him.

Lin Quan cleared his throat, stood in front of Xiangqin, and asked, "Xiangqin, is this Huanyi Bureau's affairs comfortable?"

"Father-in-law Xie Lin cares, the slave maid is just a palace maid, and it is the same everywhere, so I can't talk about uncomfortable words. ”

"Since you know that you are only a palace maid, why do you want to commit the next offense?" Lin Quan suddenly raised his voice.

"The slave and the maid are wronged, and the slave and the maid have never offended the master. Xiangqin felt inexplicable in her heart, since she entered the palace, she has always been respectful to her master.

"What about Miss Su?"

"That girl, just a palace maid, can she be regarded as a master?" Xiangqin looked disdainful, and had long forgotten the relationship between the emperor and Su Xiao in her heart.

"I don't know what is dead or alive, how can Miss Su be such a noble person, how can she be a palace maid! Miss Su is a guest of the emperor and the queen mother, how can a lowly palace maid like you encroach on it!" Lin Quan thought to himself, now even Da Luo Jinxian can't save you.

Xiangqin dared to swear to the sky, and she had never had the slightest arrogance towards Miss Su. “

"Not at all?" Murong Yan snorted coldly, and as soon as he raised his hand, someone brought up the person who had been arrested in the Jingxin Nunnery before.

Murong Yan's face changed greatly when he saw Xiangqin seeing people, he slapped one hand on the table, and his anger suddenly rushed up: "If you lie again at this moment, then you have committed the crime of deceiving the king, saying, Why do you want to order someone to monitor in Jingxin Nunnery, do you want to take advantage of people's unpreparedness to be unfavorable to Su Xiao?"

Xiangqin is also a coward, thinking of the crime of bullying the king, he wants to punish the nine clans, and he is already weak-legged at the moment: "The emperor spares his life! ”

"Dare to be hard-mouthed, I look at you who are arrogant, if it weren't for the thief being caught today, I'm afraid that after a few days of surveillance, I will send someone to kill the killer, such a vicious palace maid, I really feel extremely disgusting. Come! Beat this palace maid fifty times and expel her from the palace. As soon as Murong Yan finished making his will, someone from outside came in to report: "Your Majesty, the concubine asks to see you." “

Murong Yan sneered: "I haven't checked yet, so I will automatically send it to the door and let her in." “

Xiao tilted his body and entered the imperial study, and a voice that he thought was very enchanting came: "Your Majesty, why don't you rest so late?"

Murong Yan looked at Xiao Tian with a cold eye, and he didn't even bother to care about the hypocritical care on weekdays.

Xiangqin, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly hugged Xiao Tian's legs, crying and shouting: "Guifei Niangniang save the slave, save the slave!"

"This ......" Xiao Tian looked at Murong Yan and then at Xiangqin.

"Looking at the concubine like this, do you know this palace maid?" asked Murong Yan.

Xiao Tian hesitated, it seemed that the emperor had seen these little tricks of Xiangqin, and hurriedly denied it: "I don't know, how can this palace know such a cheap maid." ”

Xiangqin originally thought that the concubine was the last straw, but now she was disheartened: "How can the concubine treat the slave and maid like this, although the slave and maid are from a low background, but they are also human, and the concubine Niangniang ordered the slave to monitor the Jingxin Nunnery, but she didn't say that." “

"You don't want to spew blood here, when did this palace tell you!" Xiao Tian saluted Murong Yan: "The emperor must not listen to a cheap maid's nonsense, slander the concubine, and commit the following crimes, it is not a pity to die." ”

Murong Yan narrowed his eyes and asked Xiangqin, "You said that the concubine instructed you to do it, what evidence do you have?"

"Back to the emperor, in the past, Miss Su washed the clothes of the concubine Niangniang, and the concubine Niangniang was originally going to punish her, but she never thought that the emperor and Miss Su were old people. Xiangqin kowtowed as she spoke, and continued: "The slave's next words may exceed her duty, and I ask the emperor to forgive me." ”

"Go on, I listen. ”

"Your Majesty, you and Miss Su have fun in the imperial study all day long, and if you say something disrespectful, the concubine doesn't like Miss Su in the first place, and it is for this reason that the concubine wants to charge Miss Su with having a man in private affairs abroad. ”

"Concubine Xiao, is there such a thing?" Murong Yan's expression became colder and colder.

"Your Majesty, how can you listen to this cheap maid's nonsense, and the concubine is wronged. Murong Yan was already upset, and the sound of Xiao Tian deliberately pinching his throat to speak was even more uncomfortable.

"Your Majesty, this is what the concubine gave to the slave maid before. "The thing was actually secretly taken by Xiangqin before, and it was a silver ingot engraved with the seal of the Xiao family's money village.

Murong Yan looked at the mark at the bottom of his eyes and threw the silver in front of Xiao Tian: "What else do you have to say!"

"Your Majesty, the concubine is really wronged, the emperor is aware of it!" Xiao Tian was dumbfounded at this time, and he didn't expect Xiangqin to come to a dead end.

Murong Yan thought carefully and made a will: "Lin Quan, pass on my will, Concubine Xiao is jealous, she has no shame to live in the position of concubine, surrender to the concubine, punish him for half a year, and think about it behind closed doors for three months." In addition, Xiangqin, the palace maid of the Huanyi Bureau, was directly expelled from the palace because she was instructed by someone to confiscate all the gold and silver. ”

Xiao Tian's eyes were already empty, and he never expected such a heavy punishment this time.

"Concubine Xiao, it's late at night, please go back. Lin Quan ordered someone to send Xiangqin away.

In fact, everyone understands very well that the emperor punished Xiao Tian just to tell the Sixth Palace that the harem cannot tolerate people who are jealous, arrogant, and play with right and wrong. General Xiao's power is tilted towards the government and the opposition, and the emperor is using Xiao Tian to suppress General Xiao, as for whether what Xiangqin said is true, it doesn't matter.

This night, some people slept peacefully, but some people tossed and turned.
