I am cultivating myself in the palace

Ups and downs ah!

The queen is from Qingyan's country, and she arranged for people to search. Man said that Yu'er was innocent, even if she really took it, it would be impossible to find it!This time, Concubine Rong's trick was in vain.Qingyan couldn't help being happy, seeing Mu Zheng was also a little bit pleasing to the eye.

Now it was Rong Bin's turn to be unhappy.How could Mu Zheng ruin the scheme she had worked so hard for?Quickly retorted: "The concubine thinks it's wrong! No one knows now that Princess Yan is the righteous sister of the empress, and there is a difference between closeness and estrangement. What if..."

Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Empress Ji: "Concubine Rong, are you suspecting that I will be partial?!"

The empress lost her temper, so Concubine Rong had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk to the front of the hall, kneeling with Qing Yan: "Concubine has absolutely no intention of doing this, I'm just worried that my mother will be suspected..." She left herself out in a few words.What was being suspected, she was simply pointing out that the queen would be partial!As a result, Emperor Yin really hesitated.

Seeing this, the queen mother snorted coldly: "In that case, let the Ai family send people to search, so it's okay, right?"

Qingyan frowned, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw a vicious smile on the corner of Concubine Rong's mouth beside him, and he knew it in his heart - I am afraid that the Queen Mother's people have been bought by Concubine Rong, and they are not clean.Emperor Yin didn't know the situation, so he approved of this proposal, and Mu Zheng couldn't say anything.Qingyan sighed, knowing that today's catastrophe could not be avoided, she gritted her teeth: "The queen mother has ordered, and the concubines naturally have nothing to say. It's just that today's incident is a great humiliation to my Yan Palace, and it is a great shame for the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Bai, this concubine wants to discuss with the Queen Mother and the Emperor!"

"Oh?" Emperor Yin's pupils condensed slightly, "What do you want to ask for?"

Qingyan glanced sideways at Concubine Rong, and said loudly: "Since it was Concubine Rong who raised the suspicion, if after searching the whole body but not finding the gold beads, this concubine would be daring, please Madam Rong Concubine to apologize to the concubine's maidservant!"

"Yue Qingyan, you!" Concubine Rong was ashamed and angry: "I am a concubine of the third rank, how can I apologize to a lowly maid?!"

Qingyan said indifferently: "Your Majesty, why are you panicking? Aren't you sure that my servant girl stole the gold pearl?"

"Even so..." Concubine Rong was at a loss for words, although she knew that she had arranged everything perfectly, but somehow, after hearing what Yue Qingyan said, she felt flustered for no reason, so she forced herself to calm down and said, "Then if Did you find it?!"

"If you really find the golden pearl on the concubine's maid..." Qing Yan glanced at Yu'er who was not far away, and the maid was looking at her anxiously.Qingyan shook her head lightly.Signaling her not to worry about herself: "That's because the concubine is incapable of discipline, no matter what kind of punishment the concubine is willing to bear, let the concubine let it go!"

When she spoke so seriously, Mu Zheng immediately frowned.Feng Yi was also full of worries. The two men were about to advise and mediate, but Concubine Rong made a decision: "Okay! It's a deal! Please the emperor and the empress dowager make decisions for the concubine."

Qingyan also bowed down and kowtowed: "The emperor and the empress dowager are invited to be the masters of the courtiers and concubines."

Seeing that the two were riveted together, Emperor Yin could only agree and nodded to the Queen Mother.Over there, the Empress Dowager arranged for two aunts to come over, one on the left and one on the right to clamp Yu'er, and planned to take the maid down for a search.

Seeing that the situation has become.Concubine Rong stood up proudly, and Shi Shiran walked back to the Queen Mother with a contemptuous and vicious smile, thinking in her mind how she would humiliate Yue Qingyan when her aunt came to report that she had found the gold beads on the maid.

Qingyan also stood up, silently watched the maid helplessly being pushed out, then turned around as if she couldn't bear it.

"Miss..." The servant girl's begging voice sounded behind her.Qingyan's shoulders trembled uncontrollably, the back view made people feel distressed, Mu Zheng's eyes froze suddenly, and he took a step forward.Chong Yindi cupped his fists: "My brother, please think twice, brother?"

At the same time, Feng Yi's voice sounded from the other side: "My minister, please think twice, Your Majesty!"

After the two men finished speaking, they looked at each other and frowned subconsciously.

"What are you two doing!" Emperor Yin became impatient.For the sake of broken beads, why did they all get on the pole, what's the proper way to make such a fuss?He was about to reprimand him when he heard Qing Yan who was standing beside him let out a cry of surprise.

She raised her hand and pointed: "Miss Rong, isn't it a gold bead that is hooked on the hem of your clothes?"

Everyone was stunned, and followed Qingyan's fingers to look at Concubine Rong. Concubine Rong subconsciously lowered her head, and sure enough, she saw a gold bead hanging from the clothes on the corner of her palace clothes—the gold bead was hollowed out. , the surface is occasionally not smooth, it is scraping on the hem of the clothes, dangling with her movements, precarious.

"This! How is this possible..." Rong Pin's face turned pale, she clearly gave the gold beads to her court lady, and instructed her to secretly hand them over to the aunt who searched for them, so that they could be used to frame Yu'er.How could it appear here?Concubine Rong subconsciously went to look at her close maid, thinking that she was not good at doing things, but she was as surprised as herself. The master and servant looked at each other. Shaking his head, he nuzzled at the aunt who was looking at Ya Yu'er on the other side, indicating that he had given the gold beads to his aunt as she ordered.Concubine Rong went to see the two aunts again, and found that the two were also looking at each other.

Concubine Rong was confused, what is going on here?

Qingyan didn't intend to give her time to react, and hurriedly chased after the victory: "Your Majesty, look at it now. It should be that when the flower knots were unraveled, the gold beads slipped and hung on the hem of Empress Rong's clothes. Empress herself didn't notice, but she suspected that she was kind enough to help. My Yu'er is a thief!" She shook her sleeves and looked at Concubine Rong confidently: "Now that the evidence is overwhelming, what else can you say?!"

"This? This is impossible..." Concubine Rong muttered, staring at Yue Qingyan, her heart skipped a beat - if her court lady really gave the golden pearl to her aunt, then the golden pearl must still be in her hands at this moment , and the gold beads hanging on the hem of his clothes must be the fakes that this woman secretly stuck to him when he and Yue Qingyan were kneeling together just now!In the blink of an eye, Concubine Rong thought through the twists and turns inside, and got emotional for a moment, blurting out: "This golden bead is fake!"

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she felt a thump in her heart - it was over.

Sure enough, the corner of Yue Qingyan's mouth twitched: "Oh? The words of Concubine Rong are really interesting. We have been talking about the loss of the gold beads from the beginning to the end. Why did you open your mouth to talk about the truth? The concubine would like to know, Where does your suspicion come from? Even without looking at it, you can conclude that it is a fake, so the concubine dares to ask the empress, where is the real gold pearl?"

After listening to Qingyan's words, the crowd gradually came to their senses - when normal people saw the golden pearl lost and found again, they would think that they had found it.But Concubine Rong's first reaction was that the golden bead was fake. Doesn't that mean that she knew where the golden bead was in advance, so she immediately deduced that the golden bead that appeared unexpectedly was fake!

Now, even Emperor Yin's expression changed: "Concubine Rong, what explanation do you have?"

"Your Majesty! The concubine just... at first glance, I think this bead looks different from the other beads on the flower knot..."

Concubine Rong could only bite the bullet and forcefully explain. In fact, she didn't see what the gold beads hanging on her clothes looked like, but she felt that since these things were fake, it must be Yue Qingyan who didn't know what to do on the spot. Where did it come from? It can't be such a coincidence. She Yue Qingyan has an identical golden bead. Besides, the nine golden beads on the Empress Dowager's bow are hollowed out and carved, which is not something ordinary people can get!Thinking about this point clearly, Concubine Rong felt relieved, and felt that she would definitely be able to turn the situation around!

Emperor Yin frowned and winked, Li Dequan, the chief eunuch, apologized, walked up to Concubine Rong, leaned over and took off the golden bead, and held it in his hand.Concubine Rong stared at it with wide eyes, feeling that it seemed quite similar, and panicked again.

On the other side, the queen mother frowned: "Bring it to Aijia to see!"

Li Dequan quickly held it up. The Queen Mother is the original owner of the flower knot, and she is naturally familiar with the decoration on the flower knot. She also holds the remaining eight beads in her hand. After such a comparison, the conclusion immediately came out: "It is true." Gold beads."

Concubine Rong knelt down on the ground all of a sudden—how could it be possible!
