293 Stealing
As soon as Xiao Junjue returned to the palace, the night owl handed over a letter, which had just been sent from the Jin Palace.
Xiao Junjue opened it and read it carefully, seeing that his brows were getting thicker and tighter, Nighthawk asked, "Lord Wang, what did King Jin write?"
Xiao Junjue gave him the letter, "It wasn't written by the King of Jin, it was a confession written by the person who assassinated the princess." โ
Nighthawk read it roughly, and was surprised, "Is it King Qi?"
The confession stated that Liu Hanhao had indeed bribed them to kidnap the princess of Chu, but as soon as Liu Hanhao left, the king of Qi appeared and gave them a lot of money to turn the kidnapping into murder. Once something happens, it will also be pushed on Liu Hanhao.
The king of Qi also promised that if they were arrested, they would give their families a lot of money to appease them, so they did not confess to the king of Qi.
But under the heavy punishment, there are no puppets, I don't know what kind of criminal punishment this King of Jin used, forcing them to tell the truth.
It's just a pity, King Jin said in the letter that these people died in prison soon after confessing, and the confession alone could not ask King Qi about his crimes.
Obviously, their death in prison was also done by King Qi.
The night owl also read the confession and said, "Why did King Qi do this? The princess has no enmity with him." โ
"His purpose is not the princess, he wants to provoke this king and the king of Jin. Xiao Junjue's fists clenched, he had always known that Xiao Yuheng was ambitious, and he hadn't settled with him about Jiang Bojian's matter last time, but this time he actually wanted to kill Rong Zhao's life, and he couldn't tolerate it.
Xiao Junjue's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and said, "This king remembers that King Qi has a favorite concubine who is also pregnant, right?"
Nighthawk said: "Yes, it is earlier than the princess's fetus, it is almost five months." He looked at Xiao Junjue slowly, "The prince wants to ยทยทยทยทยทยท Treat others the way they do?"
Xiao Junjue glanced at him coldly, and Nighthawk felt that the prince's eyes seemed to say, Do you still use me to teach you? He couldn't help but shrink his neck and arch his hand: "If your subordinates know, they will definitely do it neatly and neatly, and they will not leave any traces." โ
"It's more than that. Xiao Junjue said.
Nighthawk suddenly raised his head, could it be that the prince asked him to kill the king of Qi?
Xiao Junjue crushed the confession into pieces little by little, "This king wants him to have no sons and grandchildren." โ
Nighthawk felt that the goosebumps on his body were rising, and swallowed his throat, sure enough, the prince is the most ruthless, not killing you, but can make your life worse than death.
What a terrible thing it is for a man to have no children and grandchildren. Besides, that man is still ambitious and wants to be the emperor, let me ask, how can a person who has no fertility become an emperor? The prince is going to strangle King Qi's dream of being the emperor alive in the cradle.
Ruthless enough.
"Yes, my subordinates will do it. As soon as Nighthawk turned around, he saw a little maid waiting for the princess waving to him behind a tree, her face full of anxiety.
He knew this maid, her name was Baoyue, and she usually followed Qiushui, so she was particularly impressed. Could it be that there is something wrong with the autumn water?
"What are you doing behind a tree? "The night stalkers saw it too.
Baoyue had no choice but to walk out from behind the tree, and she saluted Xiao Junjue resignedly, "Lord Wan'an." โ
Xiao Junjue didn't have an impression of her, to be honest, for so long, he only knew Qiushui and Lonely Crane who served by Rong Zhao's side.
"Is there something wrong with the princess?" Xiao Junjue only thought of this.
Baoyue shook her head, then nodded again.
Nighthawk's intuition should be about Qiushui, and he asked anxiously, "What the hell is going on, you say." โ
Baoyue said: "The princess lost a pair of bracelets, and after searching, she found them from Sister Qiushui." โ
Nighthawk was shocked and immediately said, "Impossible, Qiushui won't steal." โ
Baoyue looked at him, "So, I'm coming to you-" She glanced at the prince and lowered her voice, "Go and take a look, I'm afraid that the princess will punish Sister Qiushui." After all, there are only a few people who can move the princess's things, and Sister Qiushui has always kept the princess's things, and now she finds it from Sister Qiushui, and she can't explain it. โ
Nighthawk was anxious, and as soon as he took a step, he quickly remembered the prince, and looked back at him to ask for permission.
Xiao Junjue thought for a moment and said, "Let's go and have a look." โ
Nighthawk was overjoyed, "Okay, then the prince, let's hurry up." He was anxious, and he didn't care that the prince should go ahead, almost side by side with Xiao Junjue.
Rong Zhao held the pair of red jade bracelets, the bracelets were red and transparent, glowing with a warm luster, which was refracted into her eyes, and even the pupils were red.
"It's too bold to dare to steal from your master, princess, you can't show mercy. Today she covets your pair of bracelets, and tomorrow she doesn't know what she wants to steal from you. Fan'er added fuel to the fire, "This kind of person, the princess is really not suitable to stay around." โ
Qiushui glared at her hatefully, "Miss, it's really not a slave, someone must have framed and wronged the slave." Miss, the slave and maid have followed you for more than ten years, what treasure has not been seen, no matter how good and precious it is, how can I ever steal one? Miss, you must believe in the slave and maid. โ
"Princess, you must not be merciful, this kind of thing has one and two, if you let her go, it will be a tiger to return to the mountain, and next time you will be more unscrupulous, and you will not dare to steal anything valuable. Besides, these things have always been something that only she and Sister Gu Yu can touch, and now they have been found in her, who else is she?"
Lonely Bird said: "Miss, the slave maid and Qiushui have served you for many years, and she knows her best, she is loyal to Miss, how can she covet your things, let alone steal them." The slave promised that she would never do it. โ
Qiushui looked at her gratefully, "Thank you, Lonely Bird, for saying a fair word for me." She squinted at Fan'er, "Although Miss's jewelry has always been cleaned up by me, it is not only me and Lonely Eagle who can enter Miss's room, maybe someone sneaked into Miss's room and took away things, and then secretly put them there to frame me." โ
"Sneaking into the princess's room? Do you think everyone else is dead? With so many people waiting, so many pairs of eyes, has anyone ever seen anyone else except you sneaking into the princess's room? and put down in your room, has anyone ever been?" Fan'er asked the others.
Everyone looked at each other, shook their heads, and said in unison, "No." โ
Qiushui and Gu Yu are the big girls next to Rong Zhao, of course their status is not ordinary, the two of them live in a room, they are usually locked, there is nothing to do, and other subordinates will not go in privately.
"Look, who has ever been to your room? It is clear that you are guarding and stealing yourself, and you think that the princess has a lot of jewelry, and you will not remember which one to wear, so you steal it and hide it with yourself. I don't think it's the first time you've stolen it. โ
"You are untrustworthy!" Qiushui was angry, she knelt on the ground, looked at Rong Zhao helplessly, anxious tears rolled in her eyes, she was afraid that Miss would listen to Fan'er's words, "Miss, the slave maid is not, you have to believe the slave maid." โ
Lonely Crane squinted his eyes, looked at Fan'er, and said secretly: "It's really careless, but she was beaten by her, and she usually underestimates her, she can come and go freely in this yard, and she hasn't been noticed yet, so I think I have some skills."
She was a little worried, if she didn't have amnesia, she wasn't worried that the young lady would listen to Fan'er's words. But now, she's really not sure.
Can't help it, she looked at Rong Zhao, and her heart was pounding.
Rong Zhao looked at Qiushui, squinted at Fan'er again, and finally opened his mouth after not speaking for a long time, "Let's get up first." โ
Fan'er was taken aback, "Princess, tolerate adultery, you can't condone thieves." โ
Qiushui was angry, "Who do you say is the thief? I didn't steal anything at all, don't frame me." Yes, yes, it's me that you framed, I already knew that you weren't convinced that I was serving Miss, so I stole Miss's jade bracelet and put it with me this time. I said, "Why did you call the search room so happy?" โ
Looking at Qiushui's red eyes, Rong Zhao couldn't help but hook the corners of her mouth, it was the first time she had seen Qiushui being angry like this, as if she had been stepped on her tail.
After laughing, her face also became gloomy, and she said, "Okay, don't make any noise." โ
Qiushui was aggrieved, and a pair of innocent eyes stared at Rong Zhao tightly, "Miss, the slave maid really hasn't done it." โ
Rong Zhao said: "You, you really deserve to be beaten." โ
A smug smile appeared on Fan'er's lips.
Qiushui's tears fell, he bit his lip tightly, and sobbed: "Miss, it's really not a slave." โ
"You said you shouldn't be beaten. Rong Zhao glanced at her with disgust, "You have such a bad memory! You forgot? I gave you this pair of bracelets." โ
Fan'er frowned, "Princess, this is what you lost." โ
Rong Zhao glared at her, "Oh, I forgot that I had appreciated people before, and I only remembered it when I saw it." It's nothing, I often reward things casually, and it's normal that I don't remember what I appreciated. โ
She handed the bracelet to Qiushui, "Take it, your memory is worse than mine, you should really eat some pig brains to make up for it, and make up for it." โ
Qiushui was stunned, the lonely eagle rolled his eyes, and stuffed the bracelet in Qiushui's hand, "Not only Qiushui should eat pig brains to make up for it, but slaves and maids should also eat some to make up for it." That's right, I was there when the young lady rewarded Qiushui, so I forgot about it. โ
Fan'er was puzzled, "Princess, you-"
"Alright. Rong Zhao was impatient, and his voice was cold, "Are you questioning my memory?"
"The slave didn't dare. Fan'er's fierce gaze hung on Qiushui's face, and she was unwilling in her heart. She had no last resort, but she only missed Rong Zhao. Hasn't she always had no brains, why did she speak for Qiushui this time?
Rong Zhao waved his hand, "It's a trivial matter, the noise gives me a headache, let's go down." She looked at Fan'er, "Fan'er stays." โ
Fan'er was worried in her heart, and she didn't know what she meant by leaving her, so she looked at Rong Zhao.
After everyone left, Rong Zhaofang stood up, she walked to Fan'er's side, and went up with two hard slaps, "In the future, don't play this kind of trick on me, don't think that you are the person of King Jin, I will show mercy to your subordinates." This time, for the sake of King Jin's face, I will spare you, and one more time, you will get out of where you came from. You know, when I say get out, I'm not talking about King Jin. โ
