Chapter 114 Skillful Design to Clean Up Internal Traitor
, it is not yet the deepest time, however, the deep atmosphere in the hall is particularly depressing.
"Little master, what on earth did the maidservant do wrong? I hope the little master will let you know. Jiacao raised his chin stubbornly and asked unwillingly. She felt deeply uneasy from Ling Xiao's expression, but she was unwilling. She was still dreaming of glory and wealth a quarter of an hour ago, and there was a chance. What happened now?
"Bitch! Stealing the little master's necklace, why don't you admit it?!" Qingwu asked angrily and wanted to wave to Jiacao's face, but was stopped by Ling Xiao.
"Green fog." Ling Xiao raised his hand and said, "Even if he is a suspect, he will always give her a chance to argue. Listen to what she says."
Jiacao was stunned. When he reacted, he asked in surprise, "What? What necklace? I stole the little master's necklace?!"
"Do you pretend to be quite similar?" Zhu Er sneered and said to Ling Xiao, "Little Lord, there is no need to talk to such a person at all. Go straight to her room and find out what else she has to say!"
"Then why don't you go?" Ling Xiao didn't look at Jiacao.
Jiacao suddenly withered to the ground. Although she was not smart, she still had an intuition at this time. Those who searched would definitely find the chain from her room. Untimely, I suddenly have a feeling of regret. Why do I have to compare with others? Why do I have those messy thoughts that I shouldn't have? If she stayed in the small kitchen peacefully now, how could such a thing happen now?
"Little Lord, it was really hidden by this slave." Huaiyuan came back with someone. It was the silver Lingxiao flower necklace in his hand, which fainted with a layer of pink in the Yingying candlelight.
"Jiacao, do you have anything else to say?" Qingwu stretched out his slender index finger, hung the necklace on it, and deliberately stretched out in front of Jiacao and shook it.
As soon as Jiacao saw the necklace, his originally gray eyes suddenly lit up, but it was full of unwillingness and anger, and he reached out and was about to grab it. Qingwu immediately raised his hand and didn't let her get it. After looking at her contemptuously, he turned around and returned the chain to Ling Xiao.
"Someone is going to set me up! Little master, little master, someone must be going to set me up!" Jiacao climbed to Ling Xiao and shouted injustice. Even if I want to steal the little master's things, I won't choose such a cheap silver necklace, will I? Although I haven't seen anything good in Jiacao, it's not so..."
" Shut up!" Erlan slapped him rudely, "It's just a grass. If it's not yours, it's not yours. If you don't ask yourself, you're a thief."
With that, he slapped again, "This slap is to teach you the sin of disrespect to the little Lord."
Only then did Jiacao realize that he was unscrupulous just now, and he didn't care about the pain on his face, so he quickly admitted his mistake. Then she immediately argued for herself. After all, she also knew that if she admitted the theft, she would not be able to stay in the palace. However, after saying a few more words, he suddenly realized something. He looked at several people who had taught her a lesson in front of him, and his expression changed repeatedly. Finally, he opened his mouth and looked at Ling Xiao.
"Don't feel wronged either." Ling Xiao stood up, walked to her, and said with some meaning. Of course, Jiacao understands the meaning, but he still can't believe it. Is he really going to finish it?
At this moment, Ling Yuechan's voice came from outside the door, as if she had been stopped by the gatekeeper.
Jia Grassland's desperate eyes flashed a glimmer of light. In any case, it may be her last straw.
"Let her in." As soon as Ling Xiao finished speaking, the door was pushed open.
Ling Yuechan was stunned, and then smiled and said, "Oh, sister, why don't you sleep at night?" As he said, he didn't forget to take a good looking at the grass on the side.
"Miss Cicada, you save the maidservant, you save the maidservant!" Jiacao looked at Ling Yuechan expectantly.
"Little master, these things were found under the bed of Jiacao." At this time, Huaiyuan pushed the door again and put a red carved makeup box on Ling Xiao's hand. "After I just found the little master's necklace, I was in a hurry to come back and didn't check it again. But I thought for a moment. Since the girl's hands and feet were not clean, I'm afraid she won't just take this, so I went back and checked it carefully. I didn't expect that she was really expected by the slave.
I was stunned with Jiacao, and Ling Yuechan. Aren't those things all hers? To be precise, it was given to her by Ling Xiao, but... She later gave it to Jiacao in order to buy Jiacao. But now, is this regarded as stolen goods?
"Little master, this is not stolen by the maidservant. This is given by Miss Cicada to the maidservant." Jiacao tried his best to argue, and even grabbed Ling Yuechan's skirt and said to her hopefully, "Miss Cicada, Miss Cicada, tell the little master quickly that these are all given to me."
Of course, Ling Yuechan will not be unfavorable to herself for a maid of honor, but she hasn't figured out how to explain it.
Just as she was thinking, Ling Xiao slowly opened the box in her hand, turned it over a few times, took out a string of agate beads, and said to Jiacao, "Don't you admit it? Even if some of them are given to you by Yuechan, what about this? Where did this string of agate beads come from?
Ling Yuechan was immediately excited. When she first arrived at the palace, the jewelry on her body was almost empty. Many things were given by Ling Xiao. Of course, Ling Xiao knew clearly what she had. Now that something that does not belong to anyone here has been found in Jiacao's makeup box is not only a problem of unclean hands and feet, but it is likely that she betrayed her master. And as long as she is found out, Yuechan can't run away.
"Sister, this maid of honor is bold. She not only steals the things in the palace, but also dares to slander her sister. Sister, you haven't dealt with her! Such a disaster should be sent to Shen Xingsi as soon as it is!" Ling Yuechan was anxious and hurriedly said in front of Jiacao.
Ling Xiao just played with the string of agate in his hand, and the whole hall was so silent that he could hear the cry of insects outside.
"It's not me, I didn't steal..." As soon as he heard the three words "Shen Xingsi", Jiacao's eyes immediately oozed boundless fear, which was more horrible than hell for the people in the palace. But she doesn't know what vitality she has at this moment. Ling Yuechan obviously won't care about her anymore. What's more, she is also a clay bodhisattva who can't protect herself from crossing the river. Even if she admits that the jewelry was given by her, so what?
There are still a lot of things in this makeup box that are given by the medicine concubine. How can Jiacao explain it clearly? If she continues to investigate, she is afraid that she will die worse. At this moment, Jiacao just muttered instinctively that she didn't steal anything.
But in this dizziness, there seems to be a glimmer of clarity, that is, although she also hates Ling Yuechan, she did not bite her out. Ling Yuechan is Ling Xiao's sister after all. Even if Ling Xiao is angry, she won't kill her. Instead of picking her out early, it's better to let the so-called sisters kill each other!
In this half-confused and half-sober ignorance, Jiacao was taken down and sent to Shen Xingsi in the name of "theft".
Late at night, Jiacao's crazy begging for mercy and swearing gradually faded away, and the scarlet door was half closed, and it was occasionally "squeaking" by the wind. The night wind came into the house, and the people present felt a chill and couldn't help shrinking.
Ling Yuechan seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. When she turned her face, she saw Ling Xiao's frosty face. Obviously, there was no temperature, but with a smile. In the middle of the night, it looks particularly weird.
The next day, when she said her well in Zhaoyang Palace, the medicine concubine's face was very bad. Although she looked like she had applied a lot of powder, she still couldn't hide the faint cyan under her eyelids.
About the matter of Jiacao, Ling Xiao simply told the queen about the report, and it was over, and he did not worry too much about this topic. After that, although Yao Fei looked bad, she didn't say anything. Ling Xiao was not an eventful person, and naturally she would not take the initiative to make trouble. When she went out of the Queen's Palace, she also intended to avoid the medicine concubine. After all, I'm afraid that both sides don't want to mention what happened in the past few days, let alone make any trouble.
Lin Xuanyu and Ling Xiao went to Qiluan Hall together, and the two sisters talked.
"The last time, the medicine concubine invited you to Cuju, I knew that she was not kind, but she didn't call me, and I can't stick it by myself with a shy face." Lin Xuanyu is still saying with a trace of chagrin, "If I had known, I wouldn't have been faceless, I should have relied on you."
Ling Xiao covered his mouth and smiled and joked, "You are so good at it. How dare you let you go? If you're going, why don't you mess up all about her?
"Then I didn't go and didn't see her calculations, so I succeeded?" Lin Xuanyu smiled happily and then asked quietly, "Xiaoer, is the maid of honor who sent to Shen Xingsi in your palace yesterday the one who voted for the medicine concubine?"
In fact, if you really count it, Jiacao is not a medicine concubine. Nine times out of ten, he is bewitched by Ling Yuechan and wants to find a better future than a small kitchen. However, Ling Xiao doesn't want to tell Lin Xuanyu for the time being. Since she hasn't guessed it yet, she still won't talk about it. After all, it's really embarrassing.
Ling Xiao nodded, which was the default.
"Do you know how it is transmitted outside now?" Lin Xuanyu asked with a little mystery and funny.
"How did you spread it?" Ling Xiao asked calmly, not curious at all.
Lin Xuanyu couldn't help but be a little disappointed and said helplessly, "I'm afraid you have guessed it, or you have planned these by yourself. Everything is under control. Naturally, there is nothing strange."
Seeing Ling Xiao smiling and saying nothing, she continued, "Everyone said that this Jiacao was killed only after bumping into the medicine concubine. Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence? The white genius slapped his mouth back from Yaozhi Palace and was assigned to Shen Xingsi for theft that night? And it is said that Ling Xiaozhu is good to her. She has been valued recently. How can she be so shallow? Most of the time, Ling Jieyu couldn't stand the pressure of the medicine concubine and had no choice but to find a charge to send her away.
Hearing that she was almost the same as her pre-arranged, Ling Xiao continued, "Not only did no one say that my discipline was not strict, but even some people sympathized with me, right? I just fell in touch with a caring maid, and she was arrested, and the crime also affected the reputation of the whole Qiluan Hall.
"You--" Lin Xuanyu said happily and helplessly, "It's really getting more and more ghostly, but it's okay to show those black-hearted things a little color."
Lin Xuanyu went back after lunch here. When he left, he hesitated to ask, "What's wrong with your mother and sister in these matters?"
Ling Xiao was stunned and didn't say anything, but her complicated look fell into Lin Xuanyu's eyes, and she understood more or less in her heart.
"Miss, you are really smart." After Lin Xuanyu left, Qingwu said to Ling Xiao with admiration and joy, "I was still worried about how to clean up that bitch. I didn't expect that the little master would think of such a high move and used the medicine concubine. I guess she would vomit. What's more, no matter how it is spread outside, she still has no legal defense.
"Is it because of your relationship?" Ling Xiao said.
Qing Wu was stunned, "What does this have to do with slaves?"
Ling Xiao pointed to the clothes on Qingwu's body and said, "Think about the color that Jiacao often wears."
Qing Wu thought for a moment, then reacted and suddenly said, "We all like green skirts! I think the little master is inspired by this.
"Hmm." Ling Xiao paused and suddenly sighed and said, "Turn around and say hello to Shen Xingsi's people. Don't be too harsh."
Although this time it is also self-defense, it seems that this is the first time that Ling Xiao has taken the initiative to frame a person. With the first time, it is inevitable that there will be a second time. Perhaps, as Xuan Yu said, she is getting more and more adapted to the court.
Well, next, it should be Ling Yuechan.
