At this moment, everyone seemed to feel something strange.
There may be some problems in the imperial concubine's congratulatory gift.
Therefore, when Zhu Chengxuan sent someone to open the brocade box, everyone surrounded him, even Xu Miaoyin who had been silent all this time took a step forward.
Brocade box, opened.
Inside is something wrapped in a piece of gorgeous silk, and it is temporarily unclear what it is.
But it was obviously a congratulatory gift from the imperial concubine.
Nan Yan calmly said: "Do you want to take it apart?"
Wu Wan glanced at her.
And at this moment, Xia Yunting who was standing aside suddenly pointed to the inside of the brocade box and said, "What is that?"
Everyone's gazes also followed the direction of her finger, and there was something in the corner of the brocade box that was shining with a faint, warm light.
Zhu Chengxuan frowned, reached out to pick it up, and gasped suddenly.
This is a jade token!
This jade tablet is—
He had seen it countless times, and suddenly his face turned pale.
When Wu Wan and Gao Yurong saw the jade tablet being taken out, a cold light flashed in their eyes.
Wu Wan smiled and said, "Is this also a gift from the imperial concubine?"
"..."
"Look, it looks familiar."
Nan Yan frowned, looking at the jade tablet in Zhu Chengxuan's hand.
Xu Miaoyin said: "Bring it to Bengong to have a look."
Zhu Chengxuan hesitated for a moment, but Chun'er had already walked over, so he could only hand her the jade token, and Chun'er presented it in front of Xu Miaoyin.
She took it for a few glances, then looked up at Nanyan.
His eyes became serious.
At this time, Jieyu Liu Ying, who was standing beside her, said softly, "This is a bit like a man's thing."
Xu Miaoyin didn't speak.
On the contrary, Wu Wan sneered and said, "This is a gift from the imperial concubine to His Royal Highness Wei Wang. Of course it is something for men. Could it be—"
She glanced at Nan Yan.
Everyone also looked at her.
"Could it be that the imperial concubine fell into it by accident because she had a private relationship with a man?"
This sentence is like throwing a boulder into a quiet lake all at once.
Suddenly, everyone's eyes widened in shock.
However, no one dared to speak.
After all, it is absolutely taboo for a woman in the harem to associate with a man. No matter who it is, even a noble concubine, if she violates this point, it will directly tear the emperor's scales.
Can you still live
Everyone looked at Si Nanyan holding their breath.
Ran Xiaoyu became a little nervous.
After all, this kind of thing is different from stealing or destroying tributes.
In addition, she knew that Nanyan's Shougong Sha was missing, and the emperor must have suspected her, and now that this matter happened——
She looked at Nanyan, except for the moment when she frowned when she saw the jade tablet, she kept her mouth shut and said nothing.
Ran Xiaoyu immediately said with a sullen face: "Ms. Zhuang Concubine is careful, our imperial concubine has never done such a thing."
Wu Wan smiled and said, "I was just joking, why are you so nervous?"
"..."
"It's not true."
"..."
"If it's true, it's not too late for you to be nervous."
Ran Xiaoyu bit her lower lip.
Someone beside him was already muttering: "It can't be true, can it?"
Ran Xiaoyu turned her head, looked at Nan Yan eagerly, and said softly: "The imperial concubine..."
Nan Yan still did not speak, only frowning at the jade tablet.
At this time, Gao Yurong stepped forward again, looking seriously at the jade tablet in Xu Miaoyin's hand, and said, "Empress Empress, I seem to have seen this thing somewhere before."
Xia Yunting said: "I seem to have seen it before."
The people around secretly said: "It looks familiar."
"Who has it been on?"
Wu Wan sneered and said, "This seems to be worn by You Cheng, right?"
"..."
"That day, my concubine saw the canonization ceremony of the imperial concubine and empress."
Everyone gasped suddenly.
Indeed, this is Jian Ruocheng's jade card. They have all met Jian Ruocheng more or less, so they all have impressions.
And someone nearby said: "This is Mrs. Jane's jade plaque, and his name is engraved on the back."
Xu Miaoyin turned the jade tablet over and looked, and sure enough, the words "Jane Ruocheng" were engraved on the back of the jade tablet.
For a moment, the entire Chengqian Palace fell silent.
Everyone is thinking about one thing—
"Noble Concubine, why is Lord Jane's jade plaque included in your gift?"
Xu Miaoyin looked at Si Nanyan.
"..."
Nan Yan didn't speak.
When everyone saw her like this, they all understood.
Nothing to say.
I can't tell the reason why I actually found something belonging to a foreign minister from the imperial concubine's congratulatory gift.
Wu Wan covered her mouth and chuckled lightly: "Oh, is this concubine really a promise?"
At this moment, Eunuch Yu's voice came from outside the door—
"The emperor is here."
Immediately, everyone turned around and knelt down on the ground one after another, and saw Zhu Feng slowly walking in from outside.
Behind him, Jian Ruocheng followed.
Everyone said in unison: "My respects to the emperor, long live long live."
Zhu Feng waved his hand lightly: "Let's get down."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Everyone stood up again.
Zhu Feng first looked at the petite but somewhat pale figure in the crowd.
At this moment, her breath seemed to be heavier than usual.
He took a deep breath, pulled his eyes back abruptly, looked at Xu Miaoyin who looked a little dignified, and said, "Queen, what are you talking about?"
Jian Ruocheng also took a step forward, bowing his hands to the concubines in various palaces.
Xu Miaoyin glanced at him.
Zhu Feng sensed something wrong with her gaze: "Huh?"
Xu Miaoyin took a deep breath, and then said: "Your Majesty, I just found this from the congratulatory gift that the imperial concubine sent to Chengqian Palace."
After speaking, he handed over the jade token.
Zhu Feng frowned.
And Jian Ruocheng immediately said: "This is—"
Xu Miaoyin said: "My lord Jane, I also want to ask you to confirm, is this jade tablet yours?"
"..."
Jian Ruocheng took a deep breath, and immediately turned to look at Si Nanyan at the side.
His face turned pale.
Among the crowd, Gao Yurong laughed lightly and said, "Master Jian, if this is yours, you'd better admit it. The emperor is here. If you tell a lie, it is a crime of deceiving the emperor."
Jian Ruocheng looked back at Zhu Feng again.
The emperor's face had already darkened.
Wu Wan also smiled and said: "I also heard that Mrs. Jian seems to have entered the palace today."
Jian Ruocheng took a deep breath, and said: "I did come to the palace, but I went to Chengqian Palace to talk to His Royal Highness Wei Wang."
"Yeah?"
"Exactly."
Wu Wan turned her head to look at Zhu Chengxuan, and said with a smile, "His Royal Highness Wei Wang, when did Lord Jane come? When did you leave?"
Zhu Chengxuan subconsciously said: "Master Jian came at 3:00 and left at 1:00."
"Yeah?"
Wu Wan said with a smile: "But how did I hear that the time for Mrs. Jane to leave the palace is three quarters in the afternoon?"
"..."
"Where did he go during this time?"
