Chapter 18 Doing Nothing
A small piece of ruby, only half the size of a little finger, with a little dust on it, but it did not damage its brilliance.

"Send it to Tingwei Mansion immediately!" Luo Qingtian immediately gave the order.

When the inner guard bowed and retreated, Luo Qingtian suddenly thought of something, "Wait a minute."

"Red jade..." Li Country does not produce red jade, and there are only two sets of red jade jewelry in the palace, which were gifts from Jing Guo's envoy's last visit.He bestowed them on his two favorite daughters, the third princess Luo Qinglian and the fourth princess Luo Qingya.

Luo Qingtian was shocked. The two good daughters he raised actually betrayed him? !
Luo Qingtian couldn't believe it.

They usually have nothing to do with the world, so why would they do such a thing?
The abilities of the two of them can't beat the guardian of Wenshu Pavilion at all!
"Tell the guardian to come in!"

The guardian stepped in quickly, knelt down and saluted.

Under the light, the guardian's eyes were gloomy. Luo Qingtian invited him here to protect the spiritual marrow liquid. Now that the spiritual marrow liquid has been stolen, he knows that the time limit has come.

Luo Qingtian's face was terribly cold, he grabbed the guardian by the collar, lifted him up, and asked, "What's going on? Are you colluding with the thief?"

The guardian closed his eyes. Although he was dereliction of duty, he did not allow slander, and said truthfully: "The lowly position is incompetent, and I fell into the trick of turning the tiger away from the mountain."

Tune the tiger away from the mountain?

There are at least two people, and they must be more familiar with the palace than the guardians...

Luo Qingtian still didn't believe that the two daughters he held in his palm would betray him.

However, he had to find out.

The guardian clenched his hands tightly, and said shyly: "The other party uses ice-type exercises, and the ice-type elementalist is just not afraid of the low-level Xuanyin palm, and the low-level ones..."

Ice element technique?Luo Qingtian's face suddenly turned cold.

The third princess, Luo Qinglian, is the ice-type skill!

"Come here, show me—" before the words finished, a guard walked in.

"Report!" The guard in charge of searching the five-storey pagoda knelt down and saluted, holding a piece of black cloth in both hands, "This humble job found it in the gap between the window lattices."

Looking at the piece of cloth, Luo Qing made up his mind, no matter whether it was related to his two daughters or not, he must arrive before the thieves destroyed the corpse.

"Show the Palace of Pearls! Come and control the Palace of Roufu and all the people who practice ice-type exercises in the palace!"

Although it was a swaying, Luo Qingtian was in no mood to wait for his father-in-law and his servants to be in place. Surrounded by his inner guards, he galloped mightily towards the Pearl Palace.

Arriving at the garden of the Pearl Palace, the guardian pointed out: "The lowly job is because I lost the thief here."

The guardian is a person he hired with a lot of money outside, and he never leaves the Wenshu Pavilion every day. Others are not allowed to approach the Wenshu Pavilion without his permission. Therefore, the guardian is not familiar with who and who is in the palace, and he does not need to replace any of them. say.

The more Luo Qingtian thought about it, the more furious he became, "Search the Pearl Palace!"

Luo Qinglian summoned the guards, and before she had walked a hundred steps, she suddenly saw Luo Qingtian leading people over, and heard that he was going to search the Pearl Palace, she was puzzled and said, "Father, why did you want to search Lian'er's bedroom?"

Luo Qingtian looked at the guards kneeling on the ground behind her, and said coldly: "Okay, good, very good! The good daughter I have raised dares to send guards to intercept me!"

Luo Qinglian was taken aback, and hurriedly knelt down to salute: "Lian'er dare not."

Luo Qingtian's face was ashen, and he was furious: "Come here, take them all!"

Luo Qinglian faintly felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't allow her to think at this time, and begged: "Lian'er didn't do anything, why did you detain Lian'er?"

Luo Qingtian ignored her, waved his hand, "Search!"

With an order, the inner guards poured into the Pearl Hall in two columns and carried out a carpet search.

Luo Qingtian stood there with lightning-like eyes, wandering around the Pearl Palace.

Searched the garden and searched the hall, but found nothing.

While Luo Qingtian breathed a sigh of relief, the gloom in his heart rose again.

This was his favorite daughter, and he didn't want her to have anything to do with the theft of the spiritual fluid, but he couldn't bear any clues.

"Father, Lian'er was wronged!"

Luo Qinglian spoke at the right time, her voice choked up, her face was covered with tears at some point, her thick and long eyelashes were stained with crystal tears, she timidly lowered her head and did not dare to lift her head, anyone would bear it when she saw it. I can't help feeling distressed.

"You first..." Luo Qingtian had just begun to speak, when the guard who searched the back kitchen suddenly called out, "Here!"

Luo Qingtian immediately retracted his words, his face softened a little and became terribly gloomy again, just like the sky before the storm, "Take it out!"

The guards reached into the stove and found a ball of black clothing that was on fire.

The guard put out the fire on the clothes, and put his hands in front of Luo Qingtian.

Luo Qingtian was still clutching the small corner of the clothes caught in the window lattice, he only felt his brain buzzing, and his heart hurt like a city was cut off, he raised a good daughter, he raised her well daughter……

Luo Qingtian picked up the hem of the clothes and compared them with the burnt black clothes, they were actually made of the same material.

The heavens are merciful, only half of the damaged black clothes were burned, and the other half of the tears just matched the corner of the little clothes.

"That's not Lian'er's stuff!" Luo Qinglian was stunned, she didn't do anything, why did these things appear in the back kitchen?
Luo Qingtian was furious, and kicked Luo Qinglian who was kneeling on the ground crying for injustice.

Luo Qingtian kicked with full strength, Luo Qinglian spurted out a mouthful of blood on the spot, and fainted on the ground.

"Wake her up with cold water!" Seeing her faint, Luo Qingtian couldn't contain his anger, "I want to interrogate her myself!"

"Report!" An inner guard hurried out from the inner hall, holding Luo Qinglian's jewelry box in his hand.The jewelry box is painted with enchanting lotuses, and a set of ruby ​​jewelry is quietly lying in the jewelry box, "Report to the emperor, the jewelry of the third princess is intact, and the rubies are all there."

"You mean...?"

Luo Qingtian suddenly understood that Luo Qinglian was wearing black clothes and turned the guardian away from the mountain. After returning to the Pearl Palace, she immediately burned the black clothes and led the guards out to obstruct his actions. Was it to protect the real thief?
"Put her down and keep her under strict supervision. No one is allowed to approach her. Put her in the Roufu Palace!"

As soon as Luo Qingya returned to the Roufu Hall, she was inexplicably restrained. She felt full of anger, but the inner guards did not listen to her orders, and finally waited until Luo Qingtian arrived. Before Luo Qingya had time to kneel down and salute, she was captured by Luo Qingtian. A slap across the face.

Luo Qingya fell to the ground, covered her face and said in disbelief: "Father, what did Ya'er do wrong?"

Luo Qingtian glanced at her bitterly, "Search!"

The inner guard had a clear goal, and soon found a ruby ​​phoenix hairpin missing a ruby ​​from the jewelry box.

Luo Qingtian's eyes were shattered, and he stared at Luo Qingya coldly, "My dear daughter, tell me! Where is the spiritual essence liquid?"

Luo Qingya was completely dumbfounded.
