"From Xiao Wang's opinion, this matter is probably not that simple. If the young lady of the noble family really wants to steal the pendant, she should do it secretly and be careful. How could she let the maid around her carry so much gold

Silver 's swagger'? This is not a contradiction."

As soon as these words were said, the green willow's face immediately showed a kind of blue and white that was almost in a panic.

"That's...that's because the lady just ordered me to sell the pendant. I...I haven't had time to hide the silver I earned."

"Oh..." Feng Yebei dragged his voice and asked in an unknown way, "Then tell me where did you buy the pendant? As far as I know, no pawnshop in this capital dares to collect royal goods.

Except...what is there a locust tree in front of the entrance of the alley?"

Lu Liu nodded like pounding garlic without thinking, "That's right, I just took the pendant from that house."

"I dare to speak out loud? There is a locust tree at the door that is not a pawnshop, but a noodle shop. You haven't come to the real thing? Who instructed you to slander the lady?"

Feng Yebei slapped the table and was shocked not only Lu Liu, but even Liu changed his appearance slightly. He secretly blamed Lu Liu, a dead girl, for being fooled by the King of Ye in a few words!

The hall immediately fell silent. The old lady was thinking about the conversation between Feng Yebei and Lu Liu just now, feeling that there must be something tricky. Shangguan Wenyong was secretly calculating that the King of Ye, who had always ignored the world, would suddenly intervene in him.

The family affairs seemed strange...

In the silence, Madam An walked in. She walked to the old lady and gave a blessing, "Old lady, A Si found a strange box in the wood pile in the kitchen, and a coral pendant was found inside. Do you want it?

Let her hand it over?"

"What did you say? Box? Coral pendant?"

The old lady was obviously surprised. What's going on? Didn't it mean that she had already acted? The maid named Lu Liu kept saying that Hui'er ordered her to steal the pendant. Now it seems that things are clear.

"Call people in!"

The old lady, who had just wandered, now looked angry. She was so confused that she really believed what the evil maid said for a moment, and misunderstood that Huier stole something. Someone dared to be there

She used this method under her nose. It seems that the backyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion really needs to be rectified! ~

Madam An turned around and walked out, and within a moment she brought back a girl about eighteen or nineteen years old. She was exactly what Madam An mentioned.

A Si is a low-level girl in the kitchen and has never entered the inner courtyard. As soon as she walked into the inner hall, she looked at the person with a prominent status and noble character, so nervous that she couldn't even say a word. She just held the wooden box in her hand.

I handed it forward, but I don't know who it was.

"Take it over and show it to me!"

After the old lady gave the order, Madam An immediately took the wooden box and respectfully handed it to the old lady. Wenqin opened the wooden box and saw that it was indeed the coral pendant given by the emperor.

At this point, the truth has come to light. Shangguan Hui did not steal anything at all. Someone saw that the child had no mother to rely on and took the opportunity to slander her, hoping to ruin her reputation!

"snort!"

Wenqin put the wooden box heavily on the table and made a big noise. Her sharp and cold eyes looked straight at the green willow kneeling on the ground, her body trembling to the point of being trembling.

Of course, a little maid would not and dare not have such an idea of ​​slandering her master. I am afraid that today's affairs will be investigated from the person she instructed behind her.
