Chapter 742 Find the Stolen Items

Zi'an ordered Wang Jun to search Nanny Sun's residence, and sure enough, he found a hundred taels of silver and a hairpin.

Nanny Yang brought this hairpin in front of Zian, and she said: "This hairpin, I have seen this hairpin before, it belongs to Concubine Mei."

This is a hairpin with silver dots and emerald fork tail. It is not expensive, but the workmanship is exquisite and exquisite, and it is produced by the palace.

This hairpin, Zi'an saw Concubine Mei wearing it before, but because it was of an ordinary style, many empresses in the palace had it.

"Princess, how do we deal with that tricky slave?" Wang Jun asked.

Zi'an said: "I will be detained first."

"Yes!" Wang Jun took the order.

Back at Hexu Pavilion, Zi'an couldn't fall asleep for a long time.

She doesn't believe in Concubine Mei, she doesn't believe that Concubine Mei can get this medicine. It would be so stupid, knowing that the current chaos is so compelling, she still finds something for herself at this time.

"Princess, the princess is afraid that she will go directly to Concubine Mei." Yang Nanny said.

Zian thought for a while, "It's okay, let her go."

"However, if the princess is gone, if Concubine Mei is innocent, I'm afraid she will be divorced." Yang Nam said worriedly.

"If she really didn't do it and couldn't leave, she would only hate the person who framed her behind her back. If I'm not wrong about this matter, someone took advantage of her, then Dongmei might have betrayed her. "

Zian called out, "Lingli!"

"Here!" Lingli flashed in from the door.

"Go and investigate this Dongmei, and see where she used to serve."

Ling Li said: "No need to go, I have investigated all the people in Concubine Mei's Palace. Dongmei was originally a cleaning maid in the palace, and later entered Yueqing Palace to serve, but she only did some heavy work. During the month, Concubine Mei fell down by the lake, and she carried Concubine Mei back home, since that time, she has been serving in the palace, and she was promoted to the head of Yueqing Palace two months ago."

"Haven't you served in other palaces?"

"No."

Zi'an secretly wondered, how could a third-class housewife be promoted to the head of Yueqing Palace in just one year?

This is an exceptional promotion. Concubine Mei should not be able to promote her without authorization, and the servants in the palace must also be ranked based on seniority.

And she has been to Yueqing Palace, and she seems to have never seen this Dongmei, at least, the people serving in the palace, there is no Dongmei, they are all Concubine Mei's former slaves.

Moreover, her name is Dongmei, and she served Concubine Mei, but she didn't change her name because of taboo?

"Who promoted Dongmei to be in charge?" Zi'an asked.

"emperor!"

A cold light suddenly appeared in Zi'an's eyes, Your Majesty? Could it be him?

"Why did the emperor promote Dongmei to be in charge?"

Lingli said: "I heard that it was Concubine Mei who brought ginseng soup to the emperor, and I took her there. It happened that the emperor was troubled by state affairs that were difficult to decide, so he talked to Concubine Mei. Concubine Mei couldn't think of a good way, but Dong Mei provided a good solution, and the emperor appreciated it, so he smiled and said to Concubine Mei, it is much better to have intelligent people around you than you are currently in charge of Yueqing Palace. Also, the name Dongmei was also given by the emperor."

"Huh?" The emperor will give a name to a court lady?

"Yes, it is said that she looks like a plum blossom in the snow in winter. She is beautiful and has an air of arrogance."

"Is it appropriate for the emperor to do this? Isn't it taboo to name Dongmei?"

"The emperor probably didn't think about this for a while, the golden mouth has been opened, and he can't take it back." Lingli said.

Zian remembered that when he went to Concubine Mei a few days ago, he did not see the maid in charge. If Concubine Mei really believed in her, she would definitely be asked to serve in the palace, but she didn't.

It can be seen that Concubine Mei also promoted her to be in charge, and she was unwilling to do so.

"Lingli, do you believe it will be Concubine Mei?" Zi'an asked.

Lingli thought for a while, "I don't know, the harem is deep, and Concubine Mei has betrayed you before, so it wouldn't be surprising to betray you again."

"However, at this time, she betrayed me, which is of no benefit to her. Why would she do something that harms others and does not benefit herself?"

As long as one can think of a little bit of benefit to Concubine Mei, this suspicion will be considered valid.

You can't just poison her on a whim.

Still so much trouble.

Because Concubine Mei had betrayed Zi'an before, the people around her didn't trust Concubine Mei too much.

Therefore, Zi'an kept speaking for Concubine Mei, but made Yang Nanny and Lingli worry that Zi'an would be fooled again.

However, the two of them didn't say anything radical.

Zi'an pondered for a long time, then handed the hairpin to Lingli, "Go to the princess mansion and give this hairpin to the princess, saying that it was found from Nanny Sun."

Ling Li was startled, "Princess Wang, do you let the princess go to find Concubine Mei?"

Zian nodded, "That's right, if this matter was really done by Concubine Mei, it's fine for the princess to make a fuss. If it wasn't done by Concubine Mei, then the people behind it will kill two birds with one stone and put the blame on you." Concubine Mei also harmed me, so let that person think he succeeded."

Lingli nodded, "Understood, I'll go right away."

Zhuang Zhuang was still very angry after returning home, Qin Zhi persuaded her several times but she couldn't listen, so Qin Zhi had to give up and go out to make a bowl of Qingxin tea for her to drink.

"The princess is still angry, and I can't persuade you to go in." Qin Zhi asked Qionghua to go to the warehouse to get the medicine, and sighed.

"The princess is bored, these things are endless, and I feel sorry for the princess. Everyone has seen what the princess has done for Da Zhou, so why is there no good reward?" Qionghua also complained.

"Isn't it? I really don't know what the princess did in her previous life to suffer so much in this life."

Qionghua hesitated for a while, but finally said nothing.

Seeing that she hesitated to speak, Qin Zhi asked, "What's wrong?"

Qionghua looked around, lowered her voice and said: "I went shopping today, and I heard someone in the teahouse say that the princess is the reincarnation of a vixen, which brings disaster to the country and the people."

Qin Zhi was furious, "Who is talking nonsense? Are you not afraid of getting sores on your mouth?"

"Hey, if the princess knows about this, the princess will probably die of anger."

"You must not tell the princess."

"I know, how dare I say it?" Qiong Hua paused for a moment, and said: "I heard that these rumors came from the Cizhou. It happened that the prince went to the Cizhou. I wonder if he should investigate this matter?"

"It's really absurd, people can't believe it, right?" Qin Zhi said, also a little worried.

"If one person says it, of course they don't believe it, but if everyone says it, they will always believe it. Rumors are just like that."

Both of them couldn't help worrying, unexpectedly, there would be another wave of ups and downs!

After the Qingxin tea was brewed, Lingli also came.

Zhuang Zhuang had just drank tea, and when he saw Lingli coming, he said angrily: "Is it okay for your master to ask you to persuade me? You go back and tell her that she wants to be a tortoise, but I won't do it. Go to Yueqing Palace."

Li Li smiled and said: "The princess misunderstood, the princess didn't ask me to come, I came here by myself, the princess always believed in Concubine Mei, but I didn't believe it."

She took out a hairpin and handed it to the princess, "I saw Concubine Mei wear this hairpin before, and it was found from Nanny Sun's house. Nanny Sun confessed that Concubine Mei gave her a hundred taels of silver and this A hairpin as a reward for poisoning."
