Jiang Huimin ordered the papers to be cleaned up, and looked at the crowd, "I know that everyone has family members, but the palace rules are like this, usually sisters and sisters are together, and I hope you don't make things difficult for me." Turned around in the wind and left.

In Jingchun Palace, Jiang Huimin asked someone to make dinner for the evening, while Xia Qing sat aside, carefully wiping a jade bracelet with a handkerchief.

While rubbing the bracelet, Xia Qing said, "I only found out when I returned to the palace the day before yesterday that a necklace I put on the dowry table was missing, and I don't know which little girl walked by."

"Then why don't you check, maybe it's in some girl's house."

"Forget it, it's not something expensive, and the room is full of noise." Xia Qing put the bracelet aside.

Jiang Huimin sat next to her at this time and looked at her bracelet carefully, "I seem to have seen this bracelet before."

Seeing her coming, Xia Qing looked up, her clear eyes were full of tenderness. "I brought this bracelet from home. It was originally a pair. I thought about pawning it before. I lost the other one at home."

"All the things that the Xia family raided back then were filled into the national treasury. I should have seen another one. I'll let the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs look for it later."

"Sister, I don't want it anymore, so as not to alarm others." Xia Qing put the bracelet back on his wrist.

Jiang Huimin thought about what Xia Qing said was reasonable, she held Xia Qing's hand, and rubbed her ten fingers gently in her palm, "One day, these will all be yours."

Speaking of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Jiang Huimin's face was displeased. This time there was a spy in Xia Qing's palace, and it was sent by the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.Although Xia Qing put Concubine Zhu and Concubine Rui together, the matter was not over yet.

Xu Shi was dazzled just now by rubbing the bracelet, Xia Qing felt a little tired, Jiang Huimin also noticed it, she smiled and said: "Look at you, why are you so lazy every day, sleepy like this, first lie on the bed and go to sleep for a while , I will accompany you later."

She said the last sentence close to Xia Qing's ear, frivolous and ambiguous, Xia Qing's little face turned red.

Jiang Huimin laughed when she saw this, and stopped teasing her, but turned around and helped her close the curtain, and called Lian Yue back: "She will definitely be hungry when she gets up, go to the small kitchen and ask them to prepare some snacks. Keep it warm in the stove, and deliver it to Xia Qing when she wakes up."

Lian Yue smiled and said, "The servant obeys the order."

"Oh, that's right." Jiang Huimin stopped her again, "I remember that there is a girl named Guocui in Furong Hall, you go to the small kitchen to make arrangements, and then call her over, I'm in the small room in the side hall. "

Lian Yue agreed to go.

The small room that Jiang Huimin mentioned was a small room, not big, with only a small bed.It is most suitable for cats in winter, but Jiang Huimin's palace has sufficient heating, so this small room has become a place for her to rest occasionally.

About a quarter of an hour later, Lian Yue opened the curtain, and Guo Cui walked in after her.

"Greetings to the imperial concubine." Guo Cui lowered her head, but her eyes were looking around.

She was too guilty, and this closed little house made her a little scared.

Jiang Huimin looked at Guo Cui, her dress today was obviously not as ostentatious as it was a few days ago, she was walking cautiously just now.

"You've been serving me well these past few days." Jiang Huimin seemed to say it casually, but she couldn't hear any emotion.

Guo Cui replied cautiously: "All slaves should do."

"It's just that I see that you are always going to the Ministry of Internal Affairs recently. It stands to reason that there is nothing to do in Furong Palace. What are you doing there?"

Guo Cui stammered a bit, "Servant, servant is going to get supplies from Furong Hall."

"Really?" Jiang Huimin's tone changed, "How can I remember that the Furong Hall is not in charge of receiving supplies, but another person?"

"This..." Guo Cui broke out in cold sweat, but was speechless.

"What's more, there is no concubine in this palace, who needs to go to the House of Internal Affairs every three days to get things, Guocui, what else should I say?"

At this time, Lianyue came in from outside, bringing a few court ladies, "Madam, we found the necklace that Madam Zhao concubine lost in this girl's room."

Guo Cui turned pale with shock, "Your Majesty, this servant was wronged, and this servant is loyal to my mother!"

"Aren't you wronged..." Jiang Huimin stroked the ring on his hand, "This is very easy, go to the Department of Punishment and Punishment, as long as you can still say this sentence, I will believe you."

When Guo Cui heard this, she knew that she couldn't hide it anymore, she cried on the ground and begged for mercy, "Ma'am, please forgive me!"

Jiang Huimin signaled Lianyue to let her be quiet, Lianyue stepped forward and covered her mouth tightly with a handkerchief.

"Okay, now I'm asking you, who is the person contacting you, Concubine Rui, Concubine Zhu, Concubine Shu, or Wang Xin from the House of Internal Affairs?"

Lian Yue let her go, Guo Cui hesitated for a moment, then lowered her head and replied: "Wang Xin came to find the maidservant first, and later it was the concubine Rui."

"What did she ask you for?"

"Wang Gonggong said that as long as the servants help the wife of Ruipin, the benefits of the servants are indispensable. The lady of Ruibin asked the servants to look at the lady Zhaobin and report to her whenever there is any movement."

"So you were the one to tell about the burning of the paper."

"Yes." Guocui replied.

Jiang Huimin looked at her for a long time, then suddenly asked: "How did you know that Concubine Zhao came back from buying papers outside the palace? She never told anyone about it."

Guo Cui's eyes flustered, "Yes, the servants discovered it by themselves."

"Oh, really?" It seems that your eyes are very good, "Lianyue!" Jiang Huimin has never been so angry before, "Go let the people from the Punishment Department burn the iron pillars red, and let Guocui go away Once."

"Forgive me, ma'am, the servant girl said, let's just say..." Guo Cui was so frightened that tears filled her eyes, "It was Chen Nanny from Furong Hall who told me."

Jiang Huimin understood immediately.

Sure enough, she guessed right, Xia Qing trusted the nanny who accompanied her into the palace too much.

Jiang Huimin walked down step by step, Guo Cui knelt on the ground and shivered, Jiang Huimin's long nails scratched her face, and then to her chin, forcing her to look up, and then pulled her blouse down.The robe outside the palace dress was torn open, exposing the slender skin of her neck.

There are red marks on it.

Jiang Huimin let her go and threw her to the ground, "You didn't tell the truth just now, I will give you another chance, who ordered you to do this, why did you order you to frame Xia Qing?"

Chapter 18 Concentric Bracelet

Guo Cui knelt and sat on the ground with disheveled clothes, she was almost collapsed, and she didn't know how much Jiang Huimin knew, so she could only admit it in tears: "Yes, it was the prince who sent the servants to go. She sent the servants to the Furong Hall. Let the servants monitor the concubine Zhao, and find opportunities to catch her by the way, the concubine Rui found the servants later."

"Wang Xin dared to send you over there to do such a mindless thing. It seems that you have a good relationship." Jiang Huimin glanced at Guo Cui with his scrutinizing eyes.

Guo Cui's face turned pale, sweat dripped from her forehead, Jiang Huimin didn't bother her, Xiao Anzi from outside the door suddenly came in and whispered something in Jiang Huimin's ear.

She turned her head and looked at the person kneeling on the ground, "Guo Cui, if I remember correctly, you are in the countryside of Qizhou, but you have family members."

Guo Cui's expression became more flustered when she heard this, and she kowtowed frantically, "It's all the servant's fault, please don't blame the servant's family."

"Guo Cui, my parents are in my hometown in Qizhou. There is a seventy-year-old grandmother and a five-year-old younger brother. They were sent to the palace because of the flood at home. But I heard that a few months ago, your family suddenly made a fortune. , not only can you eat, but also set up the land. Guocui, you are amazing, a maid of honor, you can set up such a good home for the family."

Jiang Huimin's words were already very clear, otherwise it would be death.
