Chapter 176: Three Birds with One Stone
The next day, all the four treasures that had fallen in Mochizuki Ju woke up, and they soon found that Qin Zhao was missing. Or Baozhu was careful, and found that the rouge box resting on the desk was also missing.
"My kung fu is not bad, but the other party put me down in an instant, which shows that the other party's martial arts are profound. This matter must be reported to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince immediately. "The one who speaks is Bao Yuan.
And the person who robbed Liangdi was able to enter and leave the East Palace without alarming anyone, which is very strange.
"It's just that we are all grounded, how can we report this matter to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Orb asked with a frown.
Although Mochizuki is unguarded outside, the rules cannot be abolished.
"It's all at this time, and I don't care what I can't help but be satisfied with. A night has passed, and now I don't know where Liangdi is, whether she has ......" Baoyu's voice faded away, and he didn't dare to think about it anymore.
"I'll go to the main hall to find His Royal Highness the Prince!" Baozhu said in a deep voice.
"Let's go together!" The other Three Jewels chimed in.
Four of them left Mochizuki Residence, two went to the main hall, and the other two went to the council hall.
However, both groups of people and horses pounced in the air, just because Xiao Ce was still in the upper court, and the people were not in the East Palace.
Baozhu and Baoyu were waiting outside the council hall, and as time passed, they became more and more anxious, but they were helpless.
After about noon, Xiao Ce finally returned to the main hall.
The moment he saw the treasure bottle and the treasure yuan, his eyes froze.
The master and servant of Mochizuki are being grounded, why are the two of them here?
As soon as he saw Xiao Ce coming back, the treasure bottle immediately rushed forward: "Your Highness, Qin Liangdi was robbed last night!" ”
Xiao Ce thought he was listening, "What did you say?" ”
"When the slaves woke up this morning, they found out that Liangdi was gone...... "The vase also told the four of them about being put down last night.
Xiao Ce stood stunned for a moment, and then went to the Moon Gaze Residence.
He went to Qin Zhao's dormitory for the first time, and when he saw those large boxes, his face was slightly gloomy.
He would rather Qin Zhao leave the palace with her dowry because he was angry with him and unhappy. If someone robs him, he is only afraid of bad luck.
"Baozhu and Baoyu were waiting outside the study yesterday, and Liangdi was playing the piano in the study at that time. Liangdi finally learned to play a complete tune, and said that she had the opportunity to play it for His Highness......" The vase's voice faded away.
Xiao Ce walked into the study, and he saw Qin Zhao's changed coat behind the screen. In other words, the other party forced Qin Zhao to change a set of dresses.
From last night to today, there has been no news of the Assassins breaking into the East Palace. Moreover, the palace is heavily guarded, how did the other party easily break into the East Palace?
He picked up Qin Zhao's clothes and saw that the word "stopper" was engraved with his fingernails under the clothes.
Did Seth take Qin Zhao away?
"Zhang Jixiang, go and find out who left the East Palace and the Imperial Palace last night." Xiao Ce ordered in a deep voice.
Zhang Jixiang was glad that Qin Zhao had left the palace, but listening to His Highness's meaning, did he still want to get Qin Zhao back?
"Your Highness, Qin Liangdi has been missing for a night, even if her life is worry-free, I am afraid that the reputation has been ruined......"
Before Zhang Jixiang finished speaking, Xiao Ce suddenly looked back at him, his face gloomy: "Qin Zhao is grounded in Mochizuki Residence, she has not taken half a step out of Mochizuki Residence!" If you don't have a long memory, you don't mind having your head plucked. ”
When Zhang Jixiang heard this, where did he dare to object, "Yes, the slave can be saved." ”
Xiao Ce looked at Zhang Jixiang's back, but he was still not worried about Zhang Jixiang's affairs, so he simply went to the gate of the East Palace in person and interrogated the guards in person.
The guards did not dare to hide anything.
"There was an attendant who walked out of the gate of the East Palace with the token of the concubine, and there was a little palace maid beside the father-in-law at that time. The palace maid was small, and her subordinates didn't see the little palace maid's appearance clearly. ”
Under Xiao Ce's gaze, the guard stubbornly finished speaking.
Xiao Ce didn't expect that this matter actually had something to do with Concubine Shu, and he said after a while: "The guards who kept vigil yesterday were all punished with fifty rods, and those who survived continued to be on duty in the East Palace!" ”
"Your Highness spares your life!" The guards didn't expect to suffer such a catastrophe, and they all fell to their knees.
Xiao Ce turned a blind eye and strode out of the East Palace and headed towards the Changqiu Palace.
Concubine Shu didn't expect Xiao Ce to break in, and when she saw Xiao Ce's gloomy face, the smile on her face disappeared: "What happened?" ”
"The mother concubine colluded with Seth to take Qin Zhao away from the East Palace?!" Xiao Ce tried his best to hold back, but the anger in his eyes couldn't be hidden.
"Who is Seth?" Concubine Shu didn't remember who Seth was for a moment.
Moreover, Qin Zhao was taken away?
Xiao Ce saw Concubine Shu's dazed look and breathed a sigh of relief.
The mother concubine is not a scheming woman, and she can't even remember who Seth is, so it shouldn't be the mother concubine's doing.
"Last night, someone took the token of the concubine and robbed Qin Zhao from the East Palace, and Seth is the second prince of the Dayue clan." Xiao Ce said word by word.
If it's not the mother, then someone wants to blame the mother.
If the matter of the mother concubine colluding with the second prince of the Dayue clan spreads, the mother concubine will not be able to tell if she has ten mouths.
Concubine Shu's face changed slightly: "No matter how confused this palace is, it is impossible to collude with the second prince of the Dayue clan, someone must be to blame this palace." ”
Speaking of this, she looked at Nianyun: "Nianyun, this palace only gave you the exit token two days ago." ”
Nian Yun knew that the stakes were high, "Slave maid, let's go and take a look." ”
Seeing this, Xiao Ce said, "Alone with you." ”
In this way, Xiao Ce followed Nianyun to Nianyun's residence.
Nianyun took out the brocade box where the token was stored, she opened it and saw that the token was well placed and not lost.
Her face changed slightly, and she knelt on the ground: "Your Highness, it was really not the slave maid's doing, the slave maid could not betray the lady concubine, you must believe the slave maid." ”
Xiao Ce looked at the token in the brocade box and didn't make a sound.
At this time, Concubine Shu also rushed over, and after seeing the token, her expression was a little complicated.
She explained to Xiao Ce: "Ah Ce, although the mother concubine is sometimes confused, it is impossible to make mistakes in such things. How could the mother concubine collude with the second prince of the Otsuki clan? You are the crown prince of Great Qi, no matter how confused the mother is, it is impossible for her mother to do such a wrong thing. And you recently grounded Qin Liangdi, how could the mother concubine bother for her in such a situation? As for Nianyun, she has served the palace for many years, and her loyalty to the palace is beyond doubt, and it is impossible for her to betray her mother. ”
Xiao Ce pondered for a moment, and then said: "The son believes in the mother concubine, and the person who calculates behind him kills three birds with one stone, and his heart is vicious. ”
The other party not only colluded with the second prince of the Dayue clan, but also cleared himself up, and even framed his mother. If he and his mother turn against each other, they will fall into that man's trap.
"It must be Concubine Wu who is calculating the palace behind her back!" Concubine Shu had a flash of inspiration and remembered that Concubine Wu had a lot of connections in the palace.
After this battle, she could be sure that Changqiu Palace also had Wu Guifei's eyeliner.
Wu Guifei has such a motive, because Wu Xiyu is in the East Palace, in order to help Wu Xiyu ascend to the throne, Wu Guifei is likely to do such a thing as colluding with the second prince of the Dayue clan.
