Chapter 1359: [July 16] It's her! is her! It's her!

After thinking for a while, Ruoyin still didn't understand who had planted her.
Ruoyin shook his head, nothing more, don't think about it.
Since the Fourth Master ordered a servant to investigate, there will always be a day when the truth will come to light.
Moreover, it is Wan Fei who wants to find the murderer behind the scenes more than she does now.
After she woke up from a faint, the child was gone, and after the trusted minion betrayed her, she was murdered.
What a miserable woman!
After returning to the Yongshou Palace, Ruoyin told Banmei: "I have already remembered all the jewelry recorded by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Let's find out if there are any more in the warehouse."
If it is not in the warehouse, it is likely to be stolen or dropped.
But if there is still in the storeroom, then someone imitated the same jewelry.
After that, she found a piece of rice paper and a brush, and wrote the approximate material and appearance of the jewelry on it, and asked them to look for it accordingly.
Banmei took the paper and arranged for someone to find it.
There are many minions in the Yongshou Palace, and the contents of the warehouse are stored according to date and category.
Thinking of this, half an hour later, Banmei came to Ruoyin with a jewelry box.
If Yin sees the jewelry box, he knows it.
Sure enough, I saw Banmei handing the jewelry box to her, opening it, and saying, "Niangniang, all the jewelry you mentioned was found in the warehouse, and the date was also retrieved on the ninth day of the first month."
Ruoyin looked at the jewelry in the jewelry box, and it was exactly the same as the one he saw in Yanxi Palace.
She lowered her head to play with a gold hairpin in her hand, and said casually: "It seems that the problem is not our Yongshou Palace, but someone has imitated a batch of jewelry."
Speaking of this, she suddenly thought of something, "Go, invite the emperor."
"Yes."
It was the night when the Fourth Master arrived at Ruoyin's Yongshou Palace.
But he did not stay overnight, nor stayed long.
After only sitting for a stick of incense, he returned to the Hall of Nurturing Heart.
No one knows what the emperor said to the empress.
It's just that the atmosphere in the harem suddenly became tense.
Because they thought that the Queen’s evidence was conclusive, nothing happened to them.
Who knows that the emperor protects the queen so much, then some of them are in danger.
Either the murderer is dangerous behind the scenes.
Either they were planted.
This time the trouble is so big, someone has to come out and give an explanation, otherwise the Horqin tribe can't justify it.
Fortunately, this matter did not take too long.
In the early morning three days later, Si Ye once again summoned all the harem concubines to the Yanxi Palace of Wan Fei.
The Fourth Master ordered that everyone in the harem dare to neglect.
Moreover, intuition tells them that the emperor must have found out something.
When everyone gathered in Yanxi Palace, it was the same scene as last time.
Si Ye took Ruoyin and sat down at the top.
Concubine Wan was lying on the chaise couch because she was still sitting in the confinement.
In those gentle eyes, there was sadness, sadness, and strange emotions that could not be explained clearly.
The rest of the concubines sat down, afraid to breathe.
Seeing that everyone was here, Si Ye gestured to Su Peisheng.
Su Peisheng understood, and hurriedly shouted at the door: "Bring everyone here."
As a result, there were guards escorting two people in.
Among them, one was wearing an uniform similar to Su Peisheng.
Seeing that he is neither male nor female, this person is the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
The other was dressed in a gray cotton and linen robe with a dirty apron over his head.
There is some sparkling powder on it, looking at it like a craftsman making a craft.
Su Peisheng pointed to the eunuch, and asked in a sharp voice: "Let's go, who did you sell the list of the queen empress's custom-made jewelry?"
"I'm wronged, the emperor, I just borrowed 10,000 courage from the slave, and didn't dare to disclose the list of the queen's jewellery in private. If this is discovered, wouldn't it be a matter of losing my head."
Si Ye looked cold and unmoved.
Su Peisheng on the side interrogated him: "Since you didn't sell it to others, why did someone imitate the jewelry made by the Empress Empress at the Ministry of Internal Affairs. You should know that the jewelry is complicated and the craftsmanship is different. Only you, the general manager, knows best."
"The emperor, the empress, the slave is really wronged." The head of the House of Internal Affairs kept kowtow.
Knocked, as if thinking of something, "I know, one night, a masked man in black broke into the artwork room of the Internal Affairs Office, and when we arrived, the man in black was already gone. Run away."
"At that time, we checked the room and didn’t lose anything, except that the queen’s jewelry list was messed up, and a few pictures were missing. In order not to cause unnecessary alarms, we didn’t say anything. Who knew this happened? Thing."
As soon as the voice fell, I only heard the fourth master snorting coldly, and said: "This imprudent, irresponsible minion, drag it out to play the 30th board and drive out of the palace!"
After hearing this, Su Peisheng quickly gestured to the guards, and the steward of the House of Internal Affairs was dragged out.
This person in charge is indeed a bit shameful.
Since it has long been known that someone has flipped through the Queen’s jewellery list and lost a few pictures, I should say it earlier.
But he was fine, because he was worried about being charged with improper guarding, so he concealed the matter.
To say "in order to cause unnecessary alarm" is simply to escape responsibility.
After the steward of the House of Internal Affairs was dragged out, Su Peisheng continued to ask the remaining middle-aged man.
"Let's talk about it, who gave you the silver and asked you to create a batch of phoenix-shaped jewelry in the capital."
Middle-aged man: "..."
"Don't think that you are innocent by collecting money and making jewelry for others. In the entire Qing Dynasty, who doesn't know that only the queen and the empress are qualified to engrave the phoenix-shaped mark on the jewelry. You know you dare to take business, this is knowingly committed. , Deserve a capital offense!"
Su Peisheng scared the middle-aged man.
As soon as these words came out, I saw the middle-aged man kneeling in the middle and kowtow begging for mercy: "The emperor is forgiving, the empress is forgiving..."
"It's not impossible if you want to survive. Just take a look at the people in this room. Who gave you the money." Su Peisheng shook the dust towards the harem concubine.
"Good, good." Hearing that he could survive, the middle-aged man looked at the surrounding concubines and minions with bright eyes.
He first glanced at the concubine Qi on the left.
Then his eyes slowly shifted to the concubine on the right.
When he saw the court lady beside Qing concubine, he never looked away.
Moreover, he held out his finger to the palace lady, excited as if he saw the savior.
After all, Su Peisheng said that as long as he pointed out the person who gave him money, he could survive.
So, he was quite excited and said: "It's her! It's her! It's her! That day she gave me a lot of cash, and also gave me a few drawings, saying that I wanted to make it as soon as possible, and I had to do exactly the same. , Especially the phoenix-shaped mark."
