This jade pendant has always been in her hands, but now it has fallen into the hands of others. It was obtained from these two people.

I thought it was Mr. Li Chengli who was in charge of the business. He was old-fashioned and loyal. The other one was Wu Zhong, who was the same age as the Imperial Guard. Both of them were affiliated with the emperor, and the two of them were investigating this matter now, which was probably the emperor's intention. .

"Master Li, where did you and Commander Wu get the jade pendant from Prince Xiao's residence?" This jade pendant is only found on the young masters and ladies of Prince Xiao's residence. How could it fall into the hands of these two people.

Li Cheng glanced at Xiao Yilin and told the story calmly.

Xiao Yilin took the jade pendant in Li Cheng's hand and frowned slightly: "Xuan'er, isn't this your jade pendant?" There is a small word "Xuan" on the back of the jade pendant, which most people will not notice.

Xiao Zixuan suppressed the panic in her heart and wondered: "Mine? How could it be?" Xiao Zixuan took the jade pendant from Xiao Yilin's hand and it was indeed hers.

She remembered that in order to ask those people to help, she asked her nanny to take her jade pendant out, but she never got it back.

Now it is in the hands of two adults.

"This jade pendant fell off before and has never been found. I didn't expect that the two adults helped me bring it back." Xiao Zixuan's face was full of gratitude.

Li Cheng sneered and looked at Xiao Zixuan indifferently: "The princess is confused. This was obtained in the hands of a key criminal. The prisoner said that he got it from a nun who was driven out by the princess."

This statement was obvious enough, but Xiao Zixuan frowned: "You are right, it's just that the nanny stole the princess's things, so she sent her away."

Seeing that Xiao Zixuan was still telling lies at this time, Li Cheng became impatient and looked at Xiao Zixuan's eyes with some displeasure: "Really? Then why did we investigate that the nanny who was kicked out some time ago And he entered the Marquis' Mansion unimpeded?"

Xiao Zixuan's expression changed. She originally wanted to blame the matter on her grandma, but she never expected that the other party had already investigated this clearly.

"Since the princess can't explain clearly, then come with us." Li Cheng looked at Xiao Zixuan sternly.

Xiao Zixuan's expression stiffened and she quickly shook her head: "I am pregnant now, how can I travel a long distance?"

"Can't travel long distances? That's easy to say. I'll have the two prisoners sent to the capital. Then we'll interrogate them together at the Criminal Department." After Li Cheng finished speaking, he looked at Xiao Yilin beside him and said, clasping his fists and saying goodbye: " Prince Xiaguan and Commander Wu will go to work first."

After the two left, Xiao Yilin looked at Xiao Zixuan sternly: "Tell me, what did you do again?"

Xiao Zixuan's face showed grievance: "Father, can you still not believe Xuan'er?"

It is true that Xiao Yilin dotes on Xiao Zixuan, but he is not the kind of brainless person: "I believe in you, but I know your nature better. Tell me what is going on and how you are related to the robbers. ?”

He had just heard some time ago that the Qiao family was related to the robbers, which made the emperor furious and ordered a thorough investigation. But now that his daughter was actually related to those people, how could he not be angry

Xiao Zixuan looked at Xiao Yilin somewhat depressedly: "Father, I didn't do anything."

"If you don't say anything now, when Li Cheng and the others find out, even if my father wants to save you, there will be nothing he can do. The emperor is personally involved in this matter. You know his temper very well." Xiao Yilin looked at herself with hatred. The daughter glanced at her and said angrily.

Xiao Zixuan's body stiffened. It seemed that that person had a bad personality. It couldn't be said that he was not bad. He was easy to get along with on weekdays and was as gentle as jade. He was the one he was talking about. But once something big happened, he could immediately transform into someone else. Shura.

All the officials did not dare to hide anything from him, especially things related to the people. Now the robbers who disturbed the people were related to them. What would happen to her then? She didn't need Xiao Yilin to remind her. You can guess it.

Her imperial cousin would definitely not give her a lighter punishment just because she was his cousin.

Thinking of this, Xiao Zixuan became a little scared and quickly told Xiao Yilin what happened.

Xiao Zixuan's words made Xiao Yilin furious: "Nonsense."
