Xue Cheng came in with freshly washed grapes and placed them on the table."Miss, what are you muttering about? Xuecheng washed your favorite grapes.”
Su Lingruo sat on the chair, casually took one and threw it into her mouth, chewing slowly.
"Ah, Miss, why didn't you peel the skin and eat it?" Xue Cheng complained.”
When Ji Xiaozhen brought a group of people to Ruomei Xuan to denounce Su Lingruo, Su Lingruo was taking an afternoon nap.
Xue Cheng was so frightened that she rushed in without knocking."Miss, Miss, bad news, bad news.”
Su Lingruo got up and yawned lazily."What is it?"
Xue Cheng was so anxious that her forehead was covered in sweat. She swallowed her saliva and said hurriedly.
"Miss, Imperial Consort Ji's silver sapphire butterfly hairpin is missing. There is a little palace maid in the Precious Moon Palace who said that she saw you take it with her own eyes.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of messy footsteps came from outside the door.
Nangong Mingye had been sending people to monitor Su Lingruo. He soon learned that Noble Consort Ji had brought Lord Shang to Ruomei Pavilion.
Nangong Mingye had always been aware of the internal strife in the harem, but he had always turned a deaf ear to it.
After learning about this, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly."Men, set up Ruomei Pavilion."
Nangong Mingye had to admit that he was very curious about Su Lingruo.
After spending so many nights in her Plum Blossom Pavilion, if the first three nights were her way of capturing him, then the nights after that would reveal her true purpose.
Unfortunately, she did not.
Every night when he went to sleep with her, Ruomeixuan, that woman was fully dressed and wished she could wrap herself up.
When he laid down beside her, he wished that there was an ocean between them. He looked at her warily, and she would only fall asleep after he pretended to be asleep.
This was a far cry from the Su Lingruo who always deliberately bumped into him to attract his attention.
He knew very well that she did not seduce him in another way. She really hated him.
Hehe, this was the first time he had seen a woman who hated him.
When Nangong Mingye entered the main palace of Ruomei Xuan, Su Lingruo and Ji Xiaozhen looked at each other.
Lord Shang was searching for the sapphire butterfly hairpin that was lost in the Precious Moon Palace.
The personal eunuch Yi Yang was about to warn the people in the room that the Emperor had arrived, but he was stopped by Nangong Mingye.
"Noble Consort Ji, no matter what, I'm still the concubine of the Emperor of Ming Sheng Country. If you're here and I can't find your sapphire butterfly hairpin, what should I do?" Su Lingruo said calmly.”
Ji Xiaozhen glanced at the little palace maid behind Su Lingruo. This little palace maid was the person she arranged to keep an eye on Su Lingruo's every move in Ruomei Xuan.
The sapphire butterfly hairpin was given to the little palace maid and placed under Su Lingruo's pillow.
The little palace maid gave Ji Xiaozhen a reassuring look, and Ji Xiaozhen chuckled.
"Although Younger Sister has recently received the Emperor's favor, the Emperor has not rewarded her at all. Ruomei Xuan and the rest of the people have to rely on Younger Sister to support them. Younger Sister has committed old crimes again, so it's not impossible for her to secretly let people leave the Palace to sell jewelry.”
Xue Cheng was already furious when she heard people slandering her Miss for stealing, and now she couldn't help but feel angry when she heard Noble Consort Ji's story.
"Noble Consort Ji, my family's young miss used to sell jewelry that she brought from Yuehai Kingdom. Ever since she learned that doing so was wrong and was punished, she has never done such a thing again. Stealing someone's things is something my family's young miss would never do even if she starved to death.”
Ji Xiaozhen shot a cold glance at Xue Cheng. Xue Cheng was so frightened that she retreated and hid behind Su Lingruo.
"A lowly servant dares to contradict bengong. Men, slap your mouth.”
"Yes."
Noble Consort Ji's men wanted to slap Xue Cheng, but Su Lingruo stood in front of her.
"Who hit my people?"
Su Lingruo did not hide her past personality. At this moment, her aura was strong. Her gentle and beautiful eyes burst out with coldness, staring at everyone in the room.
Nangong Mingye took in Su Lingruo's appearance and smiled.
Noble Consort Ji was also shocked and forgot to speak for a moment. The nanny behind her reminded her.
"Niangniang, there's no need to be angry with a little slut. Once we find the item and the crime is confirmed, you will have the final say on how to deal with Ruofei and her people.”
Noble Consort Ji thought about it and felt that it was true.
"BenGong Daren is magnanimous and will not argue with you little slut.”
Seeing that Lord Shang was about to bring people into her room to search, Su Lingruo quickly blocked the door, looking a little flustered.
"This is the place where the emperor and I sleep.”
"Is Younger Sister feeling guilty?" Imperial Consort Ji asked.”
Su Lingruo looked at Imperial Consort Ji and smiled." Presumably, Imperial Consort Ji, you know the rules of the harem better than me. Searching the main room of the concubines requires the Empress 'approval. Do you want to meddle in your affairs?" If the Empress knew of this matter, would she misunderstand Noble Consort Ji for thinking about her position all day?”
Which woman in the harem didn't want to be the Empress? Being provoked by Su Lingruo like this, Imperial Consort Ji's anger immediately rose three feet. Fortunately, there was a nanny behind her to comfort her, so she didn't go forward and slap Su Lingruo.
Of course, it was another matter whether he could slap it.
"Su Lingruo, the more you don't let us in, the more it proves that there's a ghost in the room.”
Behind Nangong Mingye, Yi Yang sighed softly as he watched the show.
"This servant now knows that Ruofei's mouth is so powerful that even Ji Noble Consort is not her opponent.”
Nangong Mingye's gaze fell on Su Lingruo, and his eyes were filled with playfulness."I only just found out."
Inside the room, Su Lingruo smiled at Imperial Consort Ji, her eyes filled with laziness and shamelessness.
"It's not impossible to search, but to make such a big fuss and let everyone know, this is a serious matter that will destroy my reputation. Noble Consort Ji, if I can't find your things here, how are you going to compensate me?”
Noble Consort Ji was already 100% confident in her heart and smiled confidently.
"If you can't find it, BenGong will immediately kneel down and apologize to you.”
Su Lingruo smiled." How dare you ask me to kneel down? How about this? Since the matter started with the gemstone hairpin, if I can't find it, how about you compensate me with ten emeralds?" Sigh, although the emperor stayed overnight at sister's place for many days, sister saw that sister's entire Ruomei Pavilion was not even worth a wall of sister's.”
Everyone in the room was dumbfounded. This Ruo Fei was naked, stretching out her hand to ask for money.
Ten emeralds, they were all silver.
Noble Consort Ji gritted her teeth.
"Alright."
Su Lingruo smiled.”After that, she moved her body to let them in.
No matter how Nangong Mingye looked at her, he felt that her eyes were like that of a fox, shining brightly.#
