Chapter 19: The Loss of Palace Objects
Ye Yun was not interested in this, turned around and whispered a few words to Yu Wenqian, and then quietly left the table.
Out of the banquet, Ye Yun met Bai Zhi who had just arrived and a man dressed as a strange attendant.
When Bai Zhi saw Ye Yun, her face was overjoyed, and she hurriedly walked a few steps: "Princess!" ”
Ye Yun glanced at Bai Zhi and turned her gaze to the person behind her: "Who is this?" ”
"See the eldest princess, I don't know if the eldest princess has seen my prince?"
Ye Yun frowned: "Your prince?" ”
"Princess, he is the personal attendant of the eldest prince." Bai Zhi explained in a low voice.
It turned out to be Yu Wenqian's person.
Ye Yun said: "The imperial brother is on top of the banquet, you can go in by yourself." ”
"Thank you for the eldest princess, I will retire!"
When Li Jing walked away, Ye Yun asked, "Why are you together?" ”
Hearing this, Bai Zhi's cheeks were slightly red, and she was a little embarrassed to say: "I just enjoyed the flowers with the princess, just because Bai Zhi saw a flower blooming so beautifully, I took a few more looks, but I didn't expect the princess to disappear when I turned around, Bai Zhi looked for the princess along the path, how to know that the farther and farther, just when Li Jing passed by, I learned that he was the person of the eldest prince, and it happened that the eldest prince could not find it, so we guessed that the princess might be with the eldest prince, so we hurried to the banquet here to see what it was." ”
Bai Zhi finished talking about what happened to her in one breath, and then thought of Ye Yun and Yu Wenqian, tilted her head and said: "By the way, princess, you have never had anything to do with the eldest prince, how can you go to the banquet with the eldest prince today?" ”
Unexpectedly, Bai Zhi would pull the topic on herself, Ye Yun looked stunned, and coughed dryly: "Coincidentally!" ”
Immediately, regardless of Bai Zhi's condition, he walked forward on his own.
Bai Zhi grabbed her hair, looked at Ye Yun's back as she walked away, her eyes were a little confused, didn't she say that the eldest prince was staying alone in the Jiangxue Pavilion? Strange, how did the eldest prince go out alone in a wheelchair when no one pushed him?
The more Bai Zhi thought about it, the more confused she became, she glanced at Ye Yun, who had already walked away, and didn't care about thinking about it anymore, so she immediately trotted to catch up.
Ye Yun wandered around the palace at will, unconsciously walking more and more aside, and when she was about to return, she suddenly heard a burst of abuse in front of her: "You little miscellaneous piece, don't hurry up and hand over the things, otherwise the miscellaneous family will tell the concubine Niangniang about this matter, and you will have good fruit to eat!" ”
"Something, I didn't take it!"
"Hey! It seems that the miscellaneous family is not moving today, and it is really useless to take you, you two are not going to catch him for the miscellaneous family! ”
In the corner of the wall, two little eunuchs stood a child on the left and on the right, the child was short and sallow, and at first glance it was caused by a lack of nutrition all year round.
Although he was forcibly pressed to kneel on the ground at this time, his eyes were still calm and calm: "I said, I didn't take the thing, you just beat me to death, and I can't take it out!" ”
"Okay, the miscellaneous family wants to see if it's your hard mouth or the hard soles of the miscellaneous family!" After speaking, the eunuch raised his foot and took off a shoe, and he was about to slap it on the child.
At the last moment, Ye Yun's body moved, quickly grabbed the eunuch's wrist, and in the blink of an eye, he snatched the shoes from the eunuch's hand and threw them to the side.
The eunuch looked at this change in astonishment, and was about to get angry, but when he saw that the person in front of him was gorgeously dressed and had an extraordinary temperament, he suddenly knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "The slave doesn't know that the nobleman has disturbed the nobleman here, the slave should die, the slave should die!" ”
The other two eunuchs saw that Gonggong Hu, who had always been domineering, was stunned, how dare they argue with Ye Yun, hurriedly let go of the child, knelt on the ground and did not dare to come out.
Ye Yun glanced at the child who was still kneeling on the ground, and a touch of distress flashed in his eyes: "Bai Zhi, help that child up." ”
"Yes!"
Bai Zhi came out from behind Ye Yun and stepped forward to help the child: "How are you, it's okay." ”
The child struggled out of Bai Zhi's arms, took a few steps back, and saluted Ye Yun respectfully: "Thank you for your help!" ”
"No need to be polite, just raise your hands." After speaking, Ye Yun looked at Hu Gonggong, who was kneeling at his feet, and said, "Raise your head!" ”
Hearing this, Gonggong Hu raised his head, but he didn't dare to raise it too high.
"Let me ask you, why do you set up a private court, according to my Luoyun law, anyone who sets up a private court and beats him into a confession will be punished with ink, and those who refuse to admit their guilt and no one repents will add to the crime! If you can't tell you that you are ugly today, I will personally arrest you and go to Yuxi Palace to punish you!" ”
Hearing that Ye Yun was going to arrest him and go to Yuxi Palace to punish the crime, Gonggong Hu was so frightened that he trembled and shouted for mercy: "Your nobleman spares his life, this morning Concubine Tong gave the slave a ruby, saying that it was for the slave to wait until the banquet began to send this thing over, and the slave suddenly wanted to relieve himself on the way to send something, and the slave thought that the handkerchief covered with the ruby was embroidered with the mark of Yuxi Palace, and no one would dare to take it, so he put the thing on the stone table not far in front."
When the servant came back, the quilt that was originally covered with it was still on the side, and the ruby inside was gone.
The slave was so frightened that he hurried back to look for someone, looking around, but as soon as he arrived here, he saw him sneakily nesting in the corner, and before the slave could speak, he was in a hurry to run, if he wasn't a thief, why did he run! ”
Ye Yun frowned: "Based on this alone, you believe that he took the thing?" ”
"Naturally not, please look at it!" Gonggong Hu took out a handkerchief from his sleeve: "This is the handkerchief that the servants used to cover the rubies, and there is a handprint on the handkerchief, such a small mark, except for the child, no one can match it." ”
Ye Yun took the handkerchief, and there was a palm print clearly printed on the white silk handkerchief, and the finger bones were distinct, and it was indeed a child's handprint from the size of the handprint.
Ye Yun was a little puzzled, she turned her head to look at the child who was standing aside without saying a word, and then moved her gaze back to the silk handkerchief.
Judging from the available evidence alone, it is understandable that the finger is pointed at the child, but... Born from the heart, the child's eyes are clear and unadulterated, and he is by no means a person who steals chickens and dogs.
After thinking for a while, Ye Yun looked at the child and said softly, "You come." ”
The child glanced at Ye Yun, although there were doubts in his eyes, but he still walked to Ye Yun's side: "What do you command?" ”
Ye Yun folded the silk handkerchief in half, revealing the side with the palm print and said, "Come, put your hand up." ”
Although the child was small, he was very smart, and immediately understood the intention of Ye Yun's move, he put his hand on the palm print, and in front of everyone's eyes, the hand and the palm print completely coincided, and Gonggong Hu exclaimed: "The evidence is conclusive, see what else you have to say!" ”
The child looked at this scene in shock, shook his head and muttered, "It's not me, it's really not me." ”
Ye Yun touched his head and comforted, "I know." ”
Hearing this, Gonggong Hu was not happy, he pulled his male duck and said: "Noble, the facts are in front of you, you can't be partial!" ”
