Chapter 48: Reversal

Qi Shuxian looked at Bai Zixu and said: "Bai Wang Ye may not know, this piano is given by Concubine Rou, the wood of the piano is fine sandalwood, and the strings are made of ice silk, the ice silk is a tribute from Fanbang last year, and the reward given by Roufei Niangniang to the courtiers is the trust of the courtiers, and now the courtiers have broken this piano and can't stand the concubine Rou Niangniang, and they will definitely find the murderer." ”

Mu Ruoxue looked at what Qi Shuxian said, and now even the princes and princes have been attracted over, this must have been premeditated, just because the position of a fourth imperial concubine made these women so painstakingly target themselves, and they felt a little annoyed for a while.

"Although this piano is precious, but Miss Qi, everything pays attention to evidence, do you have any direct evidence to prove that this string was broken by Miss Mu." Bai Zixu looked at Qi Shuxian and said.

"The courtiers don't have a way to prove it directly, but as long as you search Mu Ruoxue's location, if you don't find any sharp weapons, then this matter may have nothing to do with Miss Mu, but if you find it, it must be her." Qi Shuxian glanced at Mu Ruoxuedao, her eyes full of resentment.

"After all, Miss Mu is also the daughter of the prime minister, and it's not good to let others search for it, so it's better to let me find it, and everyone won't have any suspicions when they look at it." At this time, Jin Ruirui, the daughter of the general, stood up and said.

After speaking, before the others had time to say anything, Jin Ruirui had already walked to Mu Ruoxue's position and began to look through Mu Ruoxue's books and baggage.

The moment he turned around, he gave Qi Shuxian a reassuring look.

Under Jin Ruirui's search, a broken hairpin suddenly fell out of Mu Ruoxue's book, and Jin Ruirui picked up the broken hairpin and glanced at Qi Shuxian.

"Found it, it's a weapon to break the strings." Jin Ruirui said.

Seeing this, Qi Shuxian showed an angry expression and said, "Mu Ruoxue, now the evidence is conclusive, that is, you broke my strings with a hairpin, what else do you have to say!" ”

Mu Ruoxue was also very surprised to see the broken hairpin that fell out of her book, why was this broken hairpin in her own book, she didn't remember anyone touching her book.

So he took the broken hairpin from Jin Ruirui's hand, observed it carefully in his hand for a while, and said: "First of all, this hairpin is not mine, and secondly, Qi Shuxian's broken strings are unlikely to be made by this hairpin." ”

"Heh, Mu Ruoxue is at this time, you still want to quibble!" Qi Shuxian looked at Mu Ruoxue with disdain on her face.

"Just now Qi Shuxian also said that her strings are made of ice silk and will not be easily broken, and the texture of this hairpin is white jade, fragile, if you insist on breaking the strings made of ice silk, even if the hairpin is not broken, it will definitely leave scratches on it, and this hairpin is very smooth, except for the fracture, there are no scratches in the rest of the place." Mu Ruoxue said calmly.

When Qi Shuxian heard this, she glanced at Jin Ruirui.

Jin Ruirui hurriedly said: "This doesn't prove that you didn't break the strings!" ”

"Jin Ruirui, you just found this hairpin in my book, if it was really me who broke Qi Shuxian's piano, would I be stupid enough to clip this broken hairpin into my own book and let you find it?" Mu Ruoxue looked at Jin Ruirui and said.

"Maybe that's your excuse to get away with it!" Jin Ruirui said urgently.

"If I'm not mistaken, the white jade used in this hosta is glazed white jade, and this glazed white jade is also a tribute, even if such a good white jade is in the capital except for the royal family, there are few families who have it!" Mu Ruoxue looked at Jin Ruirui and said.

"What kind of glazed white jade, I think this is all your excuse, if you break the guqin given to me by Concubine Rou, you should be expelled from the palace and go to Concubine Rou to ask for guilt in person." Qi Shuxian watched Mu Ruoxue find a flaw, afraid that she would have a chance to turn the tables, so she hurriedly said.

"This is indeed glazed white jade, this is a specialty of Shudi, I have seen it when I was stationed outside, this jade is no different from other white jade at first glance, but as long as it is in the dark, it will shine." Bai Zixu looked at the hairpin in Mu Ruoxue's hand and said.

Hearing this, Li Luo secretly glanced at Nangong Yue, and Nangong Yue looked at Li Luo with a bit of banter in his eyes.

"As far as I know, this glazed white jade is only given to the prince and General Jin except in the palace." At this time, the second prince Nangong Yue glanced at Li Luo with a smile, and then looked at Mu Ruoxue and said.

"The prince will not use glazed white jade to make hairpins, so another possibility is General Jin, but General Jin is afraid that he will not use glazed white jade to make hairpins, right?" Mu Ruoxue looked at Jin Ruirui and said meaningfully.

"No wonder Miss Jin was so anxious to come up and search my location just now, it seems that she knew that this hairpin was in my book early on, right?" Mu Ruoxue said again.

And Jin Ruirui immediately became anxious when she heard this, and said: "I do have glazed white jade in my house, but this hairpin is indeed not mine, I just wanted to search for Miss Mu's location, but I just wanted to find out the person who broke the strings as soon as possible, and there is absolutely no other meaning!" ”

"Of course, there is also a possibility that you broke Qi Shuxian's strings with this hairpin, and put the hairpin in my book to frame me, or someone asked you to do it." Mu Ruoxue glanced at Qi Shuxian, who was standing aside, as she spoke.

"This, it's not like this, Miss Qi's strings weren't broken by me!" Jin Ruirui hurriedly argued.

"That's someone instructed you, anyway, the glazed white jade is only available to your family, no matter what, it can't be separated from you, if you confess as soon as possible, the conviction can be lighter, if not, you will carry the pot for others, and you will be unlucky in the end!" Mu Ruoxue said lightly.

At this moment, Jin Ruirui was obviously a little panicked, and secretly glanced at Qi Shuxian, and was just about to say something when she was interrupted by Qi Shuxian.

Qi Shuxian saw that the situation was not good, glanced at Jin Ruirui, and immediately stepped forward and said: "How could anyone instruct Ruirui, General Jin is deeply favored by the emperor, and others have become friends with her, but I never thought that this matter was actually done by you Ruirui?" Could it be because the two of us had an argument a few days ago? He said with a face full of disbelief.

"Now you broke the piano given to me by Concubine Rou, and framed Miss Mu, which made me almost believe that Miss Mu was the bad person, just now you tried your best to help me track down, I really thought you were just trying to find out the truth, but I didn't expect to frame others." Qi Shuxian looked at Jin Ruiruidao, her face full of sadness.

At this time, Jin Ruirui listened to Qi Shuxian's words, her eyes widened, and her face was full of disbelief, she really couldn't believe her ears, and she tried her best to help Qi Shuxian, and Qi Shuxian actually pushed her out in order to save herself.

At the beginning, the hairpin was given to her by Qi Shuxian, but she didn't expect that she had prepared both hands early in the morning, if she succeeded, it would be fine, if she didn't succeed, she would push all the things on her.

"Qi Shuxian, you are spewing blood, this matter is obviously your ......" Jin Ruirui said angrily when she saw Qi Shuxian turn her face and deny people, but before she finished speaking, she was blocked back by Qi Shuxian.

"It's come to this, Ruirui, are you still obsessed? The glazed white jade is only available in your Jin Mansion, and now the evidence is conclusive, for the sake of our sisters in the past, I will definitely ask Concubine Rou Niangniang to intercede for you, and I think Niangniang will not blame you and General Jin. Qi Shuxian looked at Jin Ruirui and said.

Mu Ruoxue only felt speechless when she heard this, and at the same time felt sad for Jin Ruirui, she believed in Qi Shuxian so much, she probably never dreamed that one day Qi Shuxian would betray her for herself without hesitation.

At this time, Li Luo looked at Mu Ruoxue with a rare smile in his eyes.

Jin Ruirui listened to Qi Shuxian's words, and the words that were originally on her lips to refute were swallowed back.

That's right, there is also General Jin, and her father, Qi Shuxian is the niece of Concubine Rou, if she identifies Qi Shuxian at this time, not only will she have little chance of success, but her family will also be implicated.

With Qi Shuxian's character of retribution, if Qi Shuxian sits in the position of the fourth princess in the future, she will definitely not let go of their Jin family. Now that I can't get out of it, I can't get involved anymore and I can't involve my family anymore.

Thinking of this, Jin Ruirui gritted her teeth and looked at Qin Shuxian with a resentful cousin, and said: "Yes, I just hate you and envy you, why is your aunt the imperial concubine, why does everyone praise you for everything, we grew up together, but I am like a shadow of you, no matter how hard I try, others only see you, and never see me." ”

"Rui Rui, you, our sisters for many years, I have never treated you badly, I didn't expect you to think like this." When Qi Shuxian saw Jin Ruirui like this, she knew that she had succumbed, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

"How can you be so narrow-minded, the first rule in women's virtue is that women must not be jealous, Miss Jin is really not worthy of staying in the palace school now, I thought I could teach you how to behave, but now ......" Taifu saw this situation, and his heart was sad.

"You can do it yourself in the future! Don't have that in mind. Taifu looked at Jin Ruirui and sighed.

Jin Ruirui looked at Taifu with tears in her eyes, and bowed to Taifu and said, "Ruirui, thank you Taifu for her many days of teaching, it is the student who has lived up to his father's expectations, and the student is here to say goodbye." ”
