Royal Little Fortune

Chapter 177 The Broken Bead

"Reporting to Gege, the midnight has just passed." Baolan replied hastily.

While quickly changing clothes, Ya Ruo glanced at the western clock in the room. It was exactly one o'clock in the morning. No wonder she felt dizzy, dizzy and uncomfortable after being woken up. It turned out that it was because of herself that she only slept four hours Hours, it's still early before dawn, she is seriously sleep deprived now.

Yingge rushed in, waited for her master to wash her face, and then quickly combed Yaruo's hair into a bun.

After everything was arranged, Ya Ruo hurried out, and Qing He who was waiting outside was also a little anxious, and finally heaved a sigh of relief when seeing Ya Ruo come out.

"Qing He, what's the matter? Is my aunt feeling unwell?" Ya Ruo asked hastily.

"It's not that the Empress Dowager is uncomfortable, it's that Mrs. Kang has already given birth." Qinghe said quickly.

After hearing this, Ya Ruo became a little suspicious. Kang Gui gave birth, which means that after three days and three nights of tossing, the young master finally gave birth to the child. Not a good thing.

Could it be... Is it that Kang Gui's children are bad, or is Kang Gui's people bad?

After following Qinghe into the dormitory, Ya Ruo found that her aunt had got up and was sitting on the Arhat couch, and hurriedly went up to say hello.

"Ya Ruo pays respects to the queen mother's aunt, good luck to the aunt!"

"Come here." The queen mother beckoned to Ya Ruo, signaling her to come over.

"Yes." Ya Ruo responded quickly, and sat down on the right side of the Arhat couch under the gesture of the Empress Dowager.

"Look what this is?" The queen mother said while reaching out to lift a piece of red cloth on the small table in the middle of the Luohan couch, revealing the things under the red cloth.

There was a pearl in the small wooden box under the red cloth, which seemed to be the so-called divine pearl bestowed on her by the emperor before, but the divine pearl at this moment was completely different from when it was taken away.

When Ya Ruo handed this thing in, it was obviously fine, round and bright, and intact, but at this moment, the bead was rotten in two, and there was a lot of white powder in the middle and in the wooden box, and I don't know what it was. Not pearl powder.

"Auntie... what's the matter? I remember that the bead was fine before, but why it rotted in half all of a sudden, and there is so much powder, it's so strange." Ya Ruo said while reaching for it, But the queen mother blocked it with her hand.

"Don't touch the powder inside." The queen mother said seriously.

"Isn't that broken pearl powder?" Ya Ruo asked in surprise.

"No, this pearl has been hollowed out by someone, and these powders are put in it, but it's not pearl powder." The queen mother shook her head and said.

"So, this pearl is fake?" When Ya Ruo spoke, she couldn't believe it, because...does there exist counterfeiting technology in this era?It's so fake.

"No...the pearls are fake, but they were carefully drilled into a hole, hollowed out and added with this white powder. Do you know what this white powder is?" the Queen Mother asked in a low voice, looking at the pearl. Ya Ruo's expression was very dignified.

"I don't know." Ya Ruo shook her head.

"It's Crane's Crown Red. Seeing blood seal the throat, a little bit of water can poison many people to death." The queen mother couldn't help but shook her head.

After hearing this, Ya Ruo was stunned, and it took a while to understand the crux of it, and hurriedly said: "Aunt Queen Mother, after the emperor rewarded me with this bead, I carefully put it away. I just took it out, so... I didn't get the powder in."

The queen mother laughed after hearing this: "Of course the Ai family knows that it is impossible for you to do this."

After Ya Ruo heard this, before she could breathe a sigh of relief, she heard the Queen Mother say in a deep voice, "But... Lady Kang put this bead into her mouth to give birth. After giving birth, she couldn't take it anymore and spit out the bead When it came out, the bead just fell on the ground and became two halves. At that time, even Mrs. Kang Gui was frightened, thinking that she had bitten the divine bead, because she saw powder poured out of the bead, so she asked the close maid Jinse to go After the inspection, Jinse put a little bit of it on his mouth and licked it, so he died. After the imperial doctor checked, he found out that it was a red crane, so... now Mr. Kang is fine, and the newborn brother is also intact, but Poor girl protecting the lord is dead."

"In this way, someone wanted to harm Kang Guiren and the little elder brother, but they were all lucky, and a palace lady died, but this bead was gifted to me by the emperor, and it was taken out from me, isn't that right? It means... I am under suspicion now." Ya Ruo asked solemnly.

"That's right." The Queen Mother nodded slightly.

"Okay." Ya Ruo felt that her heart was instantly pressed against a big rock, which was extremely heavy.

Since she came to this time and space, she has been living a relatively simple and happy life.

Although she was an adult in her previous life, she was not as mature and steady as her previous life because she was combined with Xiao Yaruo's soul and influenced each other.

And... In the era when she lived in the past, the living environment was healthy and harmonious, and there were no conspiracies and tricks. Of course, she was not used to it and was extremely disgusted by making her fight and play with these women in the palace. She was grateful for herself Staying by the queen mother's side, I don't need to worry about these things, and I live quite freely, but now... disaster still strikes.

Some people wanted to use her hands to make trouble and harm others. Although Mrs. Kang Gui and his mother and son are safe and sound, a court lady died.

Maids are human too!

Who is so wicked?

Who in this palace doesn't like her and wants to kill two birds with one stone, get rid of Kang Guiren and the little elder brother, and at the same time get rid of her as a thorn in the side?

Is it Meng Guqing?Or someone else?

"Aunt Queen Mother, you believe me, right?" Ya Ruo looked at the Queen Mother, took a deep breath and asked.

"If the Ai family didn't believe you, they would have sent someone to lock you up at this moment, would they still be talking to you here slowly, explaining the whole story?" The Queen Mother nodded slightly.

"Aunt Queen Mother, can this matter be left to Ya Ruo to investigate?" Ya Ruo asked in a low voice.

She wants to find out the real culprit behind the scenes by herself, but she wants to see who is so hateful, so cruel, and so harmful in this palace.

"I'm afraid it won't work. After all... Now all the evidence points to you. If the Ai family asks you to investigate this matter, people will suspect that the Ai family is too partial to you, so Ya Ruo..." Before the queen mother finished speaking, she I heard a report from someone outside that the emperor had come.

"It's already this time, why is the emperor here?" The queen mother's face was full of displeasure. Although the birth of a prince is a big event, she clearly told everyone to report to the emperor tomorrow morning. She didn't want her son to be disturbed in the middle of the night. Dream, otherwise how can I have the energy to go to bed early tomorrow morning?
