Chapter 438 She Is Slowly Accepting Him
"Are you sure?" Mrs. Xiao narrowed her eyes suspiciously.

"My servant is sure, there was no one on the road at the time, but he happened to bump into the young lady, he must have some ulterior motive!" Zi Lan said with a confident face!
Hearing this, Mrs. Xiao believed it a little in her heart.

"Mother, what should I do? It was a jade pendant given to me by the empress dowager, and now Mr. Han has taken it away..." Xiao Shiying said anxiously.

Zilan seemed to have thought of something, and she spoke out worriedly, "I heard that Mr. Han went to Dali Temple to do a job as an apprentice for money. If he pawns that jade pendant, what should I do?"

"Mother, why don't you let Zilan pass by and secretly tell Mr. Han to return the jade pendant?"

Mrs. Xiao nodded, "Alright, although it is said that Mr. Han has dirty hands and feet and stole your jade pendant, but he is from Dali Temple after all, we don't want to tear our face apart."

"Ma'am, this servant will go over now."

Zilan secretly came to Su Qingran's side. When it came to the jade pendant, she naturally looked at it blankly, saying that she didn't take it and didn't know anything.

"Mr. Han, I advise you to hand over the jade pendant. My wife has a good temper and won't make things difficult for you." Zi Lan persuaded her earnestly.

"I didn't take it." Su Qingran rolled her eyes angrily.

"Mr. Han, you should stop being obsessed with obsession. A poor man cannot be short-sighted. It is not honorable to steal other people's things. What's more, it was rewarded by the empress dowager."

Hearing this, Jun Qinghan already knew about this matter, glanced at Zilan, and expressed displeasure on her thin lips, "Have you said enough?"

"Little...Little Marquis..." Zilan's body trembled as the coldness struck.

"Go down!"

"Mr. Han, he took..."

Jun Qinghan glanced away quietly, Zilan's heart felt cold, she couldn't say a word, she hurriedly left in fright.

"Are you in danger?" His eyes turned and he looked to the side.

Hearing his concern, Su Qingran was slightly taken aback, and immediately realized what he was referring to.

Shaking his head, "No."

"You don't need me to take action?" Jun Qinghan said uncertainly.

He already knew very well what Xiao Shiying was up to.

Su Qingran's hand was still held by this man, she didn't want to pay attention to him, looked into his concerned eyes, and finally responded lightly.

Although she was a little bit reluctant, and loved to ignore the answer, but this soft "um" made Jun Qinghan feel a warm current in his heart.

Her attitude is loosening, and she is slowly accepting him.

Zi Lan returned to Xiao Shiying's side, and told the whole story with a grievance on her face, her eyes were red at the end, "Ma'am, Young Lord Murong is too fierce, slave... slave is useless..."

"Mother, what can I do with the little Marquis Murong protecting me? Otherwise, I don't want this jade pendant." Xiao Shiying said with a hint of grievance in her eyes.

Mrs. Xiao's heart ached when she saw it. She hated Xiao Shiying's resignation and compromising appearance the most. How could her daughter be wronged?
"Yinger don't worry, this matter is your mother's decision!" She said, got up and walked out.

Since the young master has this attitude, she has nothing to worry about!

Xiao Guogong, who was sitting in front, was taken aback when he saw this, and looked over displeasedly, "What are you doing?"

Mrs. Xiao glanced at him, and then said: "I will explain to you later."

As she spoke, she walked to the center of the hall and knelt down directly, "My wife has met the emperor and the empress dowager. There is one thing, my wife wants to ask the emperor and the empress dowager to make decisions for my wife."

"What's the matter?" Emperor Xing frowned slightly when Mrs. Xiao stepped forward rashly.

"Your majesty, it's like this. Just now, the empress dowager loved the little girl and gave her a piece of jade pendant. The little girl was feeling unwell and went out for a trip. On the way, she was bumped by Mr. Han from Dali Temple, and then the jade pendant disappeared... "

"The jade pendant that the Empress Dowager gave just now has disappeared?" Emperor Xing's voice was somewhat displeased.

Xiao Guogong looked at Mrs. Xiao in shock, and then looked at Xiao Shiying.

Seeing his daughter's aggrieved appearance, his heart softened, and his brows furrowed slightly.

"Yes." Mrs. Xiao replied cautiously, "Just now, my daughter has only been in contact with Mr. Han, and he stole my daughter's jade pendant!"

Hearing what she said with certainty, Emperor Xing narrowed his eyes coldly, "Is there any proof that Han Qing stole Miss Xiao's jade pendant?"

"Yes, my maidservant can testify!"

"Let her come out." The queen mother who had been silent all this time said majesticly.

She wasn't angry that Xiao Shiying lost the jade pendant she gave her, but she couldn't bear to see theft in the palace!

Zilan came over tremblingly, and narrated what happened just now.

When everyone heard that Su Qingran bumped into Xiao Shiying on purpose, they believed in her stealing the jade pendant.

"Han Qing, do you have something to say?" Emperor Xing asked coldly.

The corners of Su Qingran's mouth couldn't help being ridiculed. After they added more details, it became that she deliberately bumped into Xiao Shiying.

She couldn't help giving a thumbs up to this kind of nonsense.

The moment Su Qingran stood up, Su Jingyuan's heart suddenly rose to his throat, and his eyes were full of worry.

"Go back to the emperor, I didn't take her jade pendant."

Emperor Xing narrowed his cold eyes slightly, "You said you didn't take it, but do you have evidence?"

Su Qingran shook her head, "No."

"I don't think there is no evidence, it's a guilty conscience!" Mrs. Xiao said coldly.

Su Qingran said casually, "Mrs. Xiao, don't wrong a good person. I didn't take any jade pendant. I didn't meet Miss Xiao when I went out just now."

"There is no evidence for what you say!" Mrs. Xiao said and looked at Emperor Xing, "Your Majesty, I implore you to be the master for my wife and search Han Qing's body."

When Emperor Xing heard this, his brows darkened a bit.

At this moment, Xiao Shiying ran out and knelt down heavily, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager, it's not good to be a courtier, and I lost the reward from the Empress Dowager. Although that jade pendant is likely to be with Mr. Han, but in front of so many people A body search is a humiliation to Mr. Han. According to my servant, as long as she is willing to return the jade pendant, the body search is unnecessary, and I will not argue with her."

The gentle voice makes the heart soft, especially her generous and careless mind is even more admirable.

It was such soft and weak words that immediately made everyone side with her, pity her, and began to accuse Su Qingran.

"Mr. Han, what's wrong with you stealing, but you want to steal Miss Xiao's jade pendant, which was just rewarded by the empress dowager."

"Mr. Han, Miss Xiao said that she doesn't care about it, so just take out the jade pendant."

The corner of Su Qingran's mouth burst into a sneer, what a Xiao Shiying, she never expected that after being in the imperial capital for a few days, her methods are better than before, and she even knows how to pretend to be a white flower to win sympathy.

Her words completely put her on the hat of stealing jade pendants!
