Chapter 167 168: Song Yunzhao can't be messed with
"...Because the needlework of the servant girl is different from that of Yingchun, I asked her to come and give pointers when I encountered difficulties. That day, the servant girl happened to clean up the warehouse for the master, and a string of gold bracelets inlaid with rubies came loose. Madam Du asked the servant girl to take it back to the house and put it on again. Because the rope couldn't find a suitable one, the servant girl put the bracelets in the box on the couch. Not long after, the bracelet disappeared..."
Song Yunzhao thought to himself that this trick is really bad, but it is not easy to use.
"The servant did not suspect Yingchun at first, and lost the hand string. The servant was very panicked. He didn't know how to explain to the master, so he could only look for it in private. After a day, the servant heard that Yingchun's natal brother came to him, and asked out of curiosity, and found out that he came to ask for silver from Yingchun. We have a fixed number of monthly slaves, but Yingchun gave her brother fifty taels of silver. The servant became suspicious, and the more I thought about it, the more I felt uncomfortable Yes, fifty taels of silver, we had to save for half a year without eating or drinking, how could Yingchun get so much money, so the slaves went to Yingchun's house secretly, unexpectedly, the slaves found the missing bracelet, so they made a fuss."
"The servant neglected his duty and lost his master's bracelet. Now he is looking for it, but he can't just swallow the matter like this. If there is one, there will be two. Is it possible that in the boundary of Liuhua Palace in the future, the servant will always guard against thieves to welcome the Spring Festival? Thinking about it, I feel terrible."
Song Yunzhao's face was already a little tense, and even Yingchun's brother was involved. If her brother was bribed, it would be too difficult to reverse the case.
Take precautions against everything, but house thieves are hard to guard against.
It is really fatal for a family to give a death certificate.
No wonder Yun Zhao looked at Yingchun's kneeling back and saw through the sadness of life before. She thought she was frightened, but she was stabbed by her family.
This matter is going to be difficult, Song Yunzhao looked at Yingchun, thinking about how to save her.
She suddenly thought of Zhang Maoquan, and turned her head to glance at Shi Zhu, Shi Zhu is a very clever girl, watching her master's gesture, she calmly withdrew from the crowd, and quietly left Liuhua Palace.
After listening to Wan Qiu's words, Yan Yu looked at Yingchun who had not spoken all this time, "Miss Yingchun, please tell me."
Song Yunzhao heard that Yan Yu's tone was not preconceived, and his heart eased slightly. It was reasonable for Yan Yu to sit in Gongzheng's position for so many years.
Yingchun lowered her head and said: "I saved twenty taels of silver for my servant, and the other thirty taels were rewarded by my master. The slave did not steal any ruby and gold bracelets. Wan Qiu did come to learn acupuncture from the slave, and the servant did go to Wanqiu's house, but the slave didn't know why the golden bracelet appeared in the slave's room. Wanqiu also said that she sneaked into the slave's room and found the gold bracelet. At that time, there was no one else. Now, Wanqiu can say that the maidservant stole it and hid it in her own room, and the maidservant can also say that the maidservant brought the bracelet into the maidservant’s room in Wanqiu to deliberately frame the maidservant.”
Song Yunzhao's eyes lit up, "Welcome to the Spring Festival", this idea is correct.
Han Jinyi also breathed a sigh of relief, Yingchun has been with her for so long, she still knows her temperament, and she will never do anything to steal, let alone something in An Fangyi's world.
Wan Qiu heard the words and said angrily, "I didn't bring anyone with me at the time because I wasn't sure if it was true. After all, it was just my guess."
Yingchun immediately replied: "It's also possible that you want to plant something so that no one can see it, so you can't bring anyone along."
Wan Qiu sneered, "When I found the golden bracelet, it was in the same box as a jade hairpin. How can we as slaves wear such things, but we don't know where the jade hairpin came from."
Song Yunzhao had a bad premonition. He was afraid that there was something unspeakable about the jade hairpin. If Yingchun couldn't explain clearly, he might not be able to crawl out of the quagmire.
An Fangyi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "I don't care about a gold bracelet. If Yingchun could take the thing out and admit her mistake, it would be over. Since she still refuses to repent and tries to bite Wanqiu back, this matter can't be dismissed like this."
Concubine Zhuang nodded solemnly, "Stealing is no small matter, and trying to frame others should not be handled lightly."
"Concubine Zhuang, the concubine knows the nature of the concubine's maid, and she will definitely not steal." Han Jinyi saw that An Fangyi and Concubine Zhuang were about to beat Yingchun to death with a single sentence, so naturally he couldn't sit still.
"Concubine Han, you can't say what you say, you have to show evidence." An Fangyi stared at her and said.
"What An Fangyi said is that even if evidence is required, the concubine asked An Fangyi to produce evidence to prove that the bracelet was taken out of Yingchun's house. Did Wanqiu say it was? You can't talk about it, you need evidence." Han Jinyi said in a deep voice.
Song Yunzhao looked at An Fangyi for a while, then suddenly said, "An Fangyi, I wonder what the bracelet you lost looks like?"
An Fangyi was taken aback for a moment, then said, "It's a gold bracelet with rubies inlaid."
"I know it's a gold bracelet with rubies inlaid on it. I just asked how many rubies are embedded in it, what kind of ruby is it, and how big is a gemstone, and the gold bracelet is too wide. Is it plain, twisted, threaded, or single-strand or double-strand? Please tell me carefully."
As soon as Song Yunzhao said this, the whole place fell silent.
Who would have thought to ask these questions, isn't it just a gold bracelet with rubies inlaid?
Song Yunzhao kept his eyes fixed on An Fangyi, glanced at Wan Qiu from the corner of his eyes, but saw a flash of anxiety in Wan Qiu's eyes, and when she was about to speak, she immediately said: "Wan Qiu, I didn't let you speak. You better shut up. If you say a word, you are suspected of destroying the evidence. Then all your testimony and testimony will be overturned. You should think about it."
Lan Qiu's face turned pale, his mouth half-opened, not knowing whether to say or not to say.
Concubine Shu glanced carefully at Song Yunzhao at the end of her eyes, she knew, she knew that she would definitely not just sit idly by, but who would have thought that she would launch trouble from this kind of place, she never thought of it anyway.
Sure enough, Song Yunzhao can't be messed with, his mind is different from normal people.
Song Yunzhao looked at An Fangyi again, "An Fangyi, why don't you speak?"
An Fangyi's expression was not good, she looked at Song Yunzhao and said, "Mistress Zhaoyi, there are many bracelets for my concubine, and more than a dozen gold bracelets. If you ask this concubine, the concubine really can't figure out what it looks like for a while. Who will remember the style as the master, and the palace people around him are in charge. Could it be that Madam Zhaoyi can remember the appearance of every piece of jewelry she owns?"
How is that possible.
Today's update is complete, cute little ones.
