The small door checked the corner of the wall inside and out, and came back and said to Xu Miaoyin: "Go back to the empress, I didn't find it."
Bihe searched in the closet, the bed, and the window sill, and came back to report, but found nothing.
Nanyan's breath tensed up a little.
I saw Chun'er searched for a while, and when she was about to go back, her eyes suddenly fell on the dressing table. She thought about it and walked over. Fulan said: "Before, all Zhaoyi's things were placed in the dressing table. On the stage, the maidservant couldn't find the bracelet there that day."
The implication is that things cannot be there.
But as soon as the words fell, Chun'er found a brocade box in the dressing box.
Suddenly, everyone's eyes focused on the past.
She slowly opened it, and the bright red coral bead bracelet inside suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
Fulan's eyes widened suddenly: "How is it possible?"
Chun'er didn't speak, and brought back the box and the bracelet and presented it to Xu Miaoyin. She stretched out her hand and twisted the bright red coral bead bracelet, shook it slightly, then raised her head to look at it, her face turned pale in an instant. Xia Yunting.
"Xia Zhaoyi, what's going on?"
"This—concubine, I really don't know."
"I don't know? You said you couldn't find it that day, so you made a fuss, but today, you found it in your own dressing box. What do you have to say?!"
Xia Yunting suddenly panicked, walked to the front, knelt down and said, "Empress Empress, I really don't know."
Xu Miaoyin looked at her coldly, and said: "You are so confused, you don't even know if things are lost or stolen, how dare you say you don't know?"
"..."
"If we didn't search again today and find out this thing, wouldn't we be blaming others?"
Xia Yunting knelt on the ground and did not dare to raise her head. Fulan Magpie behind her also knelt down on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly: "The Empress, please forgive me. It's all the fault of the servants. The Empress, please forgive me."
This happened so fast that the people around couldn't react.
Wu Wan looked at the box in the queen's hand, turned her head to look at Gao Yurong subconsciously, and immediately said: "Yes, the empress is right, this matter cannot be let go lightly. Xia Zhaoyi, I thought you It's just that you don't know people clearly, I never imagined that you are so incompetent even in managing your two maids, and even the emperor's gift is so sloppy, will you get it back in the future?"
After finishing speaking, she immediately said to Xu Miaoyin: "Empress, this matter needs heavy punishment!"
Xu Miaoyin closed the box with a snap, and said, "Come here, drag the two of them down, and the weight will be 30 boards; Xia Zhaoyi, I will punish you for three months, and you will be in Shou'an this month." Close the door in the palace and think about your mistakes, and you are not allowed to step out of the palace door!"
Immediately, a few nuns walked in, and dragged Fulan and Magpie out who kept kowtowing and begging.
Xia Yunting knelt on the ground and shivered, not even daring to lift her head.
Nan Yan also knelt beside her, but at this moment she did not relax at all.
All this happened too fast.
Of course she knew that Gao Yurong would find a way to put the bracelet back in Shou'an Palace, but she never expected that she would put it there.
If she calms down and puts it in any corner, it can be considered that Fu Lan and the others accidentally lost it. Although they will also be punished, the meaning is completely different.
Putting it on the dressing table, it was obvious that Xia Yunting was beaten up.
