Di Renjie and Li Yuanfang were still talking, Xiao Ying walked in and saw Li Yuanfang came back, she couldn't help but smiled, and said, "Yeah, General Yuanfang is back? It looks like it should be a good harvest, right?"
Li Yuanfang smiled and did not answer. Di Renjie saw Xiao Ying coming alone, and quickly asked, "Xiao Ying, how is the maidservant?"
Xiao Ying bowed and said, "Elder Ge, the humble post came for the maidservant's business!"
Di Renjie and Li Yuanfang looked at each other, Di Renjie couldn't help being a little nervous, and said anxiously: "What? What happened to the maid?"
Xiao Ying waved her hand and said, "Old Ge, do you remember the maid named Xia Ping?"
Di Renjie nodded and said, "Remember, it was the maid who secretly worshipped Xiao Cui, didn't she?"
Xiao Ying nodded and continued: "Old Ge, Xia Ping just told me that this crazy maid's name is Xiaofeng, and Xia Ping also told me that this little phoenix stole something from Xiaocui and said it was a golden hairpin. So, I think I probably know why this Xiaofeng appeared in Mingyue Tower at that time!"
Di Renjie's expression tightened, and he was shocked: "Who are you, Xiaofeng went to Xiaocui to steal things again, and then ran into the so-called ghost?"
Xiao Ying nodded and said, "Old Ge, I think we should go to Xiaofeng's room to search, maybe we will find it!"
Di Renjie raised his hand and said to the two men: "Go! Let's go and see now!"
Soon, a handmaid led the three people to Xiaofeng’s room, which was no different from the room where the other handmaid lived. Di Renjie nodded, and Xiao Ying and Li Yuanfang began to confront each other with a bed, a small table, and a wardrobe. Searching Xiaofeng's room!
Sure enough, a bag was found at the bottom of Xiaofeng’s wardrobe. When he opened it, the three of them were surprised. There were jade bracelets and a few gold and silver jewelry in the bag. The one that caught Di Renjie’s most attention was one. Fine workmanship golden hairpin!
Di Renjie stepped forward and picked up the golden hairpin. After looking at it, he was shocked. Li Yuanfang saw this and quickly asked: "My lord, is there anything special about this golden hairpin?"
Di Renjie handed the golden hairpin to Li Yuanfang and said, "Look at the texture and workmanship of this golden hairpin!"
Li Yuanfang took the golden hairpin and checked it carefully with Xiao Ying. Li Yuanfang didn't see anything. Instead, Xiao Ying said, "This golden hairpin is made of red gold, with exquisite workmanship and superb riveting and engraving. It looks very valuable. what!"
Di Renjie Point
Nodded, and said: "It's more than valuable, you guys are taking a good look at the shape of this golden hairpin!"
Xiao Ying took the golden hairpin from Li Yuanfang's hand, and after a closer look, she didn't see anything!
Di Renjie took the golden hairpin and said: "This golden hairpin is carved with a crested head, and from the point of view of workmanship, it should come from the good gold bureau!"
Li Yuanfang was surprised: "My lord, are you saying that this golden hairpin is something in the palace?"
Di Renjie nodded and said: "It is not the thing in the palace, but which princess or princess the majesty bestows on, but it is such a treasure, why did it appear in the hands of a maid?"
Xiao Ying said quickly: "Oh, yes, Elder Ge, Xia Ping said that this golden hairpin was rewarded by the owner's wife to Xiao Cui!"
Di Renjie couldn't help being startled, and said in horror: "What? You said this was rewarded by the owner's wife to Xiao Cui?"
Xiao Ying nodded, Di Renjie stroked his beard lightly, pondered for a long time, and slowly said: "It seems that we underestimated the wife of the owner?"
Li Yuanfang and Xiao Ying looked at each other, and Xiao Ying asked, "Elder Ge, what do you mean?"
Di Renjie said: "This golden hairpin is a royal thing, so where did the owner's wife Haitang get it? And you think it would be a song to be able to reward such a valuable thing to a subordinate. Did people from Ji's background do it?"
Xiao Ying nodded, and Di Renjie continued: "It seems that the disappearance of Haitang and Young Master Tang is definitely not as simple as an elopement. It seems that we have to find a way!"
The three packed up what they found and left Xiaofeng's room!
At night, Xiao Ying did not go back to her room, but hid in the dark with Li Yuanfang, staring at her room quietly. The sky was getting dark, and suddenly, the door of the room opened!
The maid named Xiaofeng poked her head out and looked around and saw that there was no one around and came out of the room. There was no sign of madness at all. Xiaofeng walked quickly towards the backyard until she reached her room. In front of the door, Xiaofeng looked around nervously, confirming that no one had found herself, and quickly pushed the door into the house!
After lighting up the oil lamp, Xiaofeng opened the closet and quickly searched for it. She was surprised to find that her baggage had disappeared!
Just about to turn around and leave, I suddenly found Li Yuanfang and Xiao Ying standing behind him, scared Xiaofeng almost fell to the ground!
Xiao Ying sneered: "Are you looking for something?"
The maid, Xiaofeng hurriedly shook her head, defending: "No, no
, Didn't find anything! "
Xiao Ying smiled and said, "Oh, I didn't find anything. It seems that Elder Ge's medicine is really effective, and the medicine is used to cure the disease? Only after a pair of medicine, your madness will be cured?"
The maid, Xiaofeng's expression tightened, and she was speechless immediately!
Xiao Ying pulled her over and smiled: "Let's go? Come with us to see Elder Ge!"
Where did the maid, Xiaofeng dare to resist, she obediently followed Xiao Ying to Di Renjie's room!
Di Renjie saw Xiao Ying and Li Yuanfang bring people over, stroked his long beard lightly, smiled slightly, and knew without asking, his guess was confirmed!
Xiao Ying bowed and said, "Elder Ge, I'm really obedient to the humble job! How do you know that she is pretending to be crazy?"
Di Renjie smiled slightly and said: "In fact, from the beginning, I thought this Xiaofeng might be pretending to be crazy, until I saw what was hidden in her room, which further confirmed my guess, so I told you not to go back to the room and give her Create opportunities!"
The maid, Xiaofeng, hurriedly knelt to the ground, kept kowtow, and said: "My lord is forgiving, my lord is forgiving! The maid just stole something, so I will pay it back!"
Di Renjie's face sank and said grimly: "Get up! Now that the stolen goods have been seized, you can hardly escape the crime of theft, but this pavilion decided to give you a chance, as long as you truthfully tell the pavilion everything you see in Mingyue Tower. , This cabinet will pardon you for your theft!"
"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir!" Xiaofeng repeatedly knocked his head!
Xiao Ying stretched out her hand to pick up Xiaofeng, Xiaofeng said: "Back to the adults, since Xiaocui's death, the folk girl has been worried about her things, because she had told the folk girl before that the lady rewarded her. She had a lot of good things, Xiao Cui died unexpectedly, so the girl became greedy, and sneaked into Xiao Cui’s room every two days to steal something, because I didn’t dare to take too much at once, for fear of being discovered. So every time I take a different one and hide it on my body!"
Di Renjie twisted the beard and said, "Not long ago, the guardian of Mingyue Tower's night watch said that he saw Xiaocui's ghost. It should be you, right?"
Xiaofeng was taken aback, nodded and said, "Yes! I just wanted to get out of Xiaocui's room that night, and the guardian just opened the door and came out. I saw him standing in the yard not leaving, so I put on Xiaocui's. Clothes, if I wanted to scare him, he would hide in the room when he was scared, but he didn't expect him to be fainted. When I was scared, I ran away too!"
Di Renjie nodded and asked: "Then what happened the night you hit the ghost?"
