In the Daning Palace, the flowers are withering, and the wind and clouds are surging, which is not quiet.
Yun Yao waited for Rong Ya to finish breakfast, then came out of the Hehuan Hall and headed towards Changming Palace. She was dressed in a majestic palace dress, her steps were firm, her eyes were calm, and her body seemed to be filled with a power that could move mountains and seas, as if nothing could defeat her.
When he came to Changming Palace, Lu Yingquan had already prepared.
At this time, Furong was sitting in Lu Yingquan's room, accompanying Yingquan to breakfast. After all, in the past few days, it has been Furong who has been taking care of Lu Yingquan, and Lu Yingquan listened to Yun Yao's words, stood still, and was also used to the existence of Furong.
"Why did you come here so early?" Lu Yingquan asked as if he didn't know she was coming over today when he saw Yun Yao.
"If you have nothing to do, the queen doesn't need me to serve all the time, so she came to see you. Yun Yao said, "Is there anything in your house that needs to be sorted out?" Let me help you tidy it up, such good things as the South China Sea pearl string that Xu Meiren rewarded before, you can't just put it indiscriminately, if you lose it, it's a big disrespect to Xu Meiren." β
"I just moved here, and I don't bother to move these days, so I haven't sorted it out. Since you took the initiative to bring it up, it will bother you. Lu Yingquan said cooperatively, "It's all over there, just watch and help me clean up, anyway, now that I'm in trouble, no one else will come to this house except Furong." β
With a word, Lu Yingquan pulled Hibiscus into the water and prepared for what was going to happen later.
Yun Yao quietly walked to the direction pointed by Lu Yingquan's hand, put some of Lu Yingquan's precious jewelry and other valuables in a categorical manner, and then used a large box to pack all the things that the masters had rewarded.
And here, Lu Yingquan didn't care about Yun Yao, just talked to Furong, and seemed to be very relieved of Yun Yao. But Furong always paid attention to Yun Yao's actions, afraid that Yun Yao would suddenly do something to embarrass her.
"Yingquan, I remember that the emperor rewarded you with a jade hairpin, what about the hairpin? Why didn't you see it?" Yun Yao suddenly turned her head, looked at Lu Yingquan, and saw that Yingquan's head was empty, so she asked.
Yun Yao knew that Yingquan's jasper hairpin was broken by Yingquan himself because of the anger in his heart on the day he came back from Jianzhang Palace before. For fear of being discovered, blamed Yingquan for damaging the emperor's gifts, Yun Yao took it away, and asked the queen to ask someone to go out of the palace to repair it, and then send it back.
Now that this jasper hairpin is not in the palace, it is just the right time to search for it.
"I've been leaving it there!" Lu Yingquan was so excited when he heard this, he was about to get up from the bed, "How could I not see it?
Lu Yingquan struggled and got out of bed, and Furong hurriedly helped her to walk to Yun Yao's side and rummage carefully.
Since these days, the things rewarded by the emperor and the queen, as well as those rewarded by other masters, are all here, but the jasper hairpin is missing.
Lu Yingquan was anxious all of a sudden: "Yun Yao, what should I do? If I let others know that I lost the jade hairpin given by the emperor, I will die!"
"Don't worry, I have a way. Yun Yao hurriedly patted Lu Yingquan's hand and comforted, "Think about it, moving from the independent yard over there to this side is something I helped you pack together, and the jasper hairpin was still there at that time, which means that the hairpin was lost in the yard here." And you have been on bed rest for the past few days and have never been out of the room, it is impossible that you accidentally lost it yourself, someone must have taken it from your room. Think about it, who's been in your room these days?"
The so-called serious nonsense is probably like this, but Furong is timid after all, as soon as she heard Yun Yao's words, she was so frightened that she immediately knelt down:
"Young Envoy Yun, please be aware of everything, it must not have been taken by the slave maid! It must have been taken away by someone else when they entered Miss Yingquan's room!"
Lu Yingquan tilted his head and thought for a while before he spoke: "But in the past few days, only you have been in my room, except for you Yun Yao and Jianyue, do you think they will take away my jasper hairpin?"
"It's really not me, if it were me, would I be so obvious? It's just me who comes every day, isn't it obvious that you will suspect me?" Fleur quickly defended, her eyes earnest, for fear that she would get into trouble.
"Yun Yao, what she said makes sense, and I also believe that it is not Furong. Lu Yingquan looked at Furong for a long time before saying, "It's better for us to find a separate way." β
"Well, that's just a stupid way to search. Yun Yao said, "Stealing the things given by the emperor, this crime is not light, as long as I know the queen mother, as the master of the harem, she will definitely investigate for you." Don't be in a hurry, let me go to Empress Yuming, and then bring someone to search this courtyard. β
After saying this, Yun Yao turned around and made a gesture to leave, but was pulled by Furong.
"Young Envoy Yun, you brought someone to search, you won't search the slave's room, right?" Furong asked tremblingly, "Miss Yingquan has already said that she doesn't suspect the slave's maid." β
"Since it's a search, it depends on the queen's intentions. However, according to what I know about the Queen Mother, she will definitely search your room first to eliminate your suspicion for the sake of fairness. Yun Yao said, "But you don't have to worry, since you didn't take it, and Yingquan said that he didn't suspect you, then search it, it's nothing to you." β
Yun Yao said that the clouds were light and light, but Furong's face had changed.
If it was really a jade hairpin, then she was not afraid of searching, after all, she really didn't take it, but what she was afraid of was the other things in the house, which were all evidence that Du Liangren used to buy her, if this matter was known to Yun Yao and the queen mother, then she couldn't hide the drug on Lu Yingquan.
"Furong, why are you shaking?" Lu Yingquan suddenly asked, "Are you afraid?" You said you didn't take it, and I believe it wasn't you, what are you still afraid of?"
Facing Lu Yingquan's questioning, Furong was even more afraid, she did successfully gain Lu Yingquan's trust, and also used this trust to complete the things that Du Liangren explained, but she would never have thought that something like this would happen today.
"Yingquan, it's inconvenient for me to meddle in the matter between you and Furong, but the theft of the hosta is not trivial, as the young envoy of the Hehuan Palace, the lady in charge of the queen's side, to assist the queen mother in handling all the things in the harem, this matter must be solved. Yun Yao said firmly, "I'll go back first, and I'll deal with it when I show the queen mother." β
This time, Yun Yao did not hesitate, turned around and was about to go out, just when she had already stepped out of the door with one foot, Furong suddenly spoke again:
"Waitβ"
Yun Yao turned around again, looked at Furong in surprise, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Cloud ...... Young Envoy Yun, I beg you to give me a chance! Please don't let the Queen Mother come and search my room!"
"Could it be that Yingquan's hosta was really taken by you?" Yun Yao was still deliberately pretending to be stupid, as if she had completely forgotten about the medicine.
"No...... Not hosta. Furong gritted her teeth, kowtowed to Lu Yingquan with a pale face, and said, "I'm sorry for Miss Yingquan and betrayed her trust in me, there is indeed something unspeakable in my room, but it's not a hosta, but ...... Du Liangren used it to buy my other jewelry. β
As soon as these words came out, Fleur collapsed to the ground as if she had been drained of all her strength.
She felt that if it weren't for the theft of Lu Yingquan's hosta, and Yun Yao had to search this courtyard, then her affairs could be concealed all the time and would never be discovered. didn't want to search, people are always not as good as heaven, and this matter was finally revealed.
Lu Yingquan listened to Furong's words, and his hands were already involuntarily clenched into fists. When she first heard that Yun Yao suspected Furong, she still had a moment of disbelief, but as Yun Yao's investigation deepened, Furong's suspicion became bigger and bigger, until this moment, Furong finally admitted in person that she had done something sorry for her.
"Sure enough, it's you. Yun Yao listened to Furong's words and said, "There is no jasper hairpin stolen at all, the hosta is now in the Hehuan Palace, I borrowed it from Yingquan to play with it for a few days." β
Furong raised her head suddenly and looked at Yun Yao, but she only saw Yun Yao's cold eyes, and the look in her eyes seemed to know everything.
Only then did she deeply understand that Yun Yao and Lu Yingquan might have known that she had given the medicine, and the so-called theft of the jasper hairpin was just a bureau, set up a trap for her, and let her tell the matter herself.
If she admits it in private, then there may still be room for a turnaround, but if the queen mother finds out and brings all this matter to the fore, it will not only be her, but even Du Liangren will be involved, and things will become even more out of control.
"Furong, do you know what kind of harm you have caused to me by doing this? I, Lu Yingquan, have been assassinated so many times in the Yeting Palace, poisoned, and beaten with boards, there has never been such a time as now. Lu Yingquan said, "Skin injuries can be healed, and poisoning can also be resolved, but as a woman, if I can't have children in the future, how can you make my life complete?"
"I'm sorry, I didn't expect the matter to be so serious, the medicine was given to me by Xiaoyu next to Du Liangren, I thought it was just an ordinary medicine, I didn't know ...... at all" Fleur explained, crying and crying, but in Yingquan's opinion, this explanation was so pale and powerless.
She slowly squatted down, lifted Furong's face, made her look directly at herself, and then said: "Furong, I will give you two choices; Second, if you help me take revenge on Du Liangren, I will forgive you for what you did before, not only will you not be in any danger, but you can continue to work as an errand in Changming Palace. β
Lu Yingquan's voice was very crisp, as always, but in Furong's ears, there was a hint of unclear tone. It seemed as if something was slowly changing, but she couldn't notice it.
