Chapter 412
Hearing that the gift from the emperor was gone, Uncle Xiling frowned slightly.

"Why is it gone, have you looked for it carefully?"

"I looked for it, but I couldn't find it, so my daughter is now asking people to search every house."

"Well, it should be searched, carefully searched, don't let some servant with dirty hands and feet pick it up." Xi Lingbo didn't feel wronged by Jingyao's search, the theft of this imperial gift is a big deal, Otherwise, the Xilingbo Mansion will be punished.

It's just that when he finished speaking, he felt that there was something wrong, as if he had overlooked something.When his eyes swept over Jingyao and the maids behind Jingyao again, he finally realized that something was wrong.

"Wait, I said you are a dead girl, now you don't suspect your father that I took your things anymore, do you?"

"Of course not, it's impossible for Dad, but it's not necessarily the people around Dad."

"You..." Uncle Xiling was speechless after being bet, but he still jumped angrily, "It's the other way around, my daughter has come to search my father, I said my daughter, can you save some face for your father? Ah?"

Facing this newly recognized daughter, Xilingbo was often very helpless, because he couldn't control it, and her daughter always acted vigorously, and he couldn't stop many things even if he wanted to.Secondly, the daughter has a high status, so she doesn't rely on him as a father at all. On the contrary, when the daughter gets married in the future, he, the father, will also have the honor of her daughter.

And at this time, when he saw Jingyao bringing the girl over in person, he knew that the girl was for real.So I couldn't help but discuss it with Jingyao.

But who would have thought that Jingyao's watery eyes just looked at him like that, and all the words he wanted to say were blocked in his throat.

"And ask Dad to let the person inside avoid it first."

Xilingbo was stunned again, his face flushed a little, he had no choice but to go back to the bedroom, he didn't know what to say, after a while his cheeks were flushed, and he watched a very young and beautiful woman come out of the room.

Seeing Jingyao bowing to her, she gave Uncle Xiling a reluctant look before leaving.

Jingyao just looked down at her, but for some reason, she always felt that this woman was very familiar, as if she had seen her somewhere.

"Okay, the person has gone out, you need to investigate quickly." Xilingbo said helplessly, and then sat on the chair next to him and leaned back, looking very aggrieved like that.

Jing Yao secretly pursed her lips into a smile, she suddenly found out that this cheap old man is sometimes quite cute.

And he seemed to be more and more conniving towards her, even agreeing to search his house, and he was just a little unhappy.Although the house must be searched, she originally planned to clarify the matter with Daddy Cheap before doing it.

Unexpectedly, before she said anything, the other party guessed what she meant, and reluctantly agreed.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help thinking quietly, after all, it's her own, but it's different.

"You guys wait outside the door first, my father and I have something to talk about."

"What do you want to say to your father? If you want to say it, say it quickly." In fact, Xilingbo's unhappiness was still immersed in the good things that were interrupted, so his words were a bit rushed.

"Father, Aunt Jiang put three witchcraft dolls in the uncle's mansion. The person who instigated Aunt Jiang to do this should be from the Mei family. And Aunt Jiang met me before and said that the housekeeper in our mansion is also from the other mansion. The daughter is afraid that there are other things in the mansion, so she made an excuse to search it specially, so as not to end up with a disaster in our mansion but don't know the root cause."

When the servants all went down and closed the door, Jingyao straight to the point told Xilingbo her reason for coming and what happened in the past two days.

After hearing this, Xilingbo didn't react too much for a while, but when he did, his eyes widened.

"Is yours real?"

"Of course, Xiao Qi bumped into the witch doll..."

Then Jingyao told the story of Xiao Qi's encounter with Aunt Jiang, and the fact that she deliberately ordered Aunt Jiang's house to be set ablaze so that she could use this opportunity to go to the lotus pond to fish for dolls.

After hearing the words, Uncle Xiling was silent for a while, but finally said, "You don't need to check with the butler, father knows. As for Aunt Jiang's matter, you can deal with it yourself."

"What did dad say, do you know who the butler belongs to? Since you know, why do you keep him?"

"He won't hurt us."

"Father is that sure?"

"Father is sure."

Jingyao stared at Uncle Xiling for a long while, seeing that Uncle Xiling's expression was normal, without any embarrassment at all, she couldn't help frowning.

But he still asked too much, "Then whose person is he?"

When Xilingbo heard the words, he kept his mouth shut and didn't intend to speak out.

Jingyao's eyes flickered twice, and she suddenly asked, "Is he from the emperor?"

Xilingbo was startled when he heard the words, but he still didn't speak.But Jingyao had a guess in her heart, and she affirmed it.

"Since Dad knows that the other party won't harm us, it's fine, but if I find out that he dared to endanger the uncle's house and finally hurt the second brother, no matter who he is, I can't spare him."

After finishing speaking, Jingyao came out from Xilingbo's courtyard, but when she met her, she found the woman who just came out from Xilingbo's courtyard.

Jingyao was surprised, she hasn't left yet?
The woman saw Jingyao, but she didn't show any embarrassment or embarrassment at being bumped into by Jingyao, so she went to the mansion slightly, missed Jingyao, and entered Xilingbo's courtyard again.

And the moment she closed the courtyard door, Jingyao finally remembered where she had seen this woman.

A while ago, she stopped her in the palace and said that it was Concubine Lan who wanted to see her, the woman who claimed to be the maid of Concubine Lan's palace.But why is she in the uncle's house?And even climbed onto Xilingbo's bed?
Suddenly, Jingyao had a bad premonition in her heart, and this premonition was not groundless.Since this woman is a woman in the palace, but she can go out of the palace and appear in the uncle's residence, then there is only one thing, which is allowed by Emperor Yunzhao.And if the housekeeper is also a member of Emperor Yun Zhao as she guessed, then what does Emperor Yun Zhao mean by doing this?The butler seemed to be in Shen's residence at first, so Emperor Yunzhao wanted to monitor Shen's residence at first, but was later sent to Xilingbo's residence by Shen's family, so the purpose became to monitor Xilingbo's residence?But it didn't seem right, the housekeeper had been in the mansion for many years, and at that time Uncle Xiling was not yet an uncle, nor did he have much power.

Jingyao was a little confused for a moment what Emperor Yun Zhao wanted to do, but he had better not mean to harm the uncle's house, otherwise don't blame her for being rude.

Jinglian Temple

Xiaoyue and others have already searched and returned.

"The princess!"

"How is the result?"

All three shook their heads, "Princess, except for the personal belongings of some maids and servants, I didn't find anything else."

Jingyao nodded when she heard the words, and said after a while, "How many maids and servants in the mansion have personal relationships?"

"four"

"One person will give some money and send them out of the house."
