Chapter 248 Night Drunk (Part [-])

Shen Qiaoyan took the jade pendant from her waist and went to a pawn shop, and exchanged the jade pendant for a little silver without hesitation.

Although those taels of silver were not enough for her to spend in the future, they were still enough to fill her stomach tonight.

She touched the bulging purse with a smug smile on her face.

She searched for the aroma of the roasted chicken just now, and walked towards the bustling street.

The cool wind passed through her fair skin and brushed her straight hair away.

At night, the Prince's Hall is brightly lit, and the interior of the hall, which is hung with high-quality silk, is even more majestic and magnificent.

At this time, a man in a Chinese dress was walking in from outside the door. With his star-like eyes, he was already extraordinary, and with his Chinese clothes, he was extraordinarily elegant.

Seeing the man coming in, the maidservants in the palace stepped forward to salute, "His Royal Highness."

"Get up." The man said indifferently.

His deep and dark eyes glanced at the book case on the hall, and then his eyes changed. When he approached the book case, he opened a delicate wooden box that was placed on the book case.

"Why did His Royal Highness come back so early? Didn't the palace hold a feast tonight to celebrate the expansion of the territory? His Royal Highness..." Before the little servant who followed the man into the palace from outside the door finished speaking.

A gloomy voice sounded in the hall, "Who took this king's jade seal?"

"Jade seal?" The little slave scratched his head, and he immediately knelt on the ground after realizing it, and shouted: "His Royal Highness, please forgive me, this servant dare not touch His Royal Highness's jade seal after eating bear bile!"

As soon as he knelt down, the female servants in the hall also knelt on the ground, shouting that they were wronged and innocent.

The man looked at the empty jade seal box, his face became more and more gloomy.

"The jade seal is to prove the identity of His Highness the Crown Prince, how dare we steal His Highness's jade seal?" The little servant said anxiously.

"Yes, yes, this jade seal has been placed in the hall for more than a year, and it has never been lost during the period. Why did it disappear tonight?" A maidservant in the hall responded.

"His Royal Highness, it's strange to see this as a slave." The little slave said.

The man turned around and stood with his hands behind his back, and said coldly: "Have you seen anyone who has been to my prince's palace tonight?"

After the words fell, the hall was quiet for a while.

"Back to His Royal Highness, the prime minister's daughter seems to have been here." A certain maid replied.

"It seems?" The man asked in a questioning tone, with a sarcastic smile on the corner of his mouth.

The maidservants kneeling on the ground cringed in fright when they heard His Highness the Crown Prince's tone.

As for the little servant who was standing aside, when he heard the word "Prime Minister's Daughter" next to his ears, something seemed to come to his mind immediately.

He patted his forehead hurriedly, took out a letter from his sleeve, and handed it to the man while hurriedly saying: "Yes, yes, the prime minister's daughter has been here before, and she even gave this to the slave, so that the slave When His Highness comes back, I will hand it over to Your Highness."

The man frowned slightly, he took the letter in the hand of the little servant, opened it, and the letter really explained the whereabouts of the jade seal.

"Prime Minister's Daughter..." The man's face suddenly became a little angry, "Which of you let an outsider enter the prince's palace?"

"Back to His Royal Highness, the prime minister's daughter is a childhood sweetheart with His Royal Highness, and she is the prime minister's daughter, so we didn't pay much attention to it," said the maid.

"Yes, yes." Someone responded.

"Then I have to be considerate of you?" the man said in a deep voice.

When everyone heard the man's tone, they were frightened and kowtowed to apologize.

But the man's face showed no intention of being merciless at all. He said indifferently with a cold face, "As a servant in the palace, you are so careless and dereliction of duty,"

"Each person fights for thirty, and will be punished immediately. You are not allowed to reveal a word about the jade seal being taken away, and those who leak it will be severely punished."

Everyone kowtowed and answered in unison, "Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince."

Then the maids in the palace dispersed.

Only the man and the trembling little servant remained.

"Your Highness, do you have a way to retrieve that jade seal?" the little servant asked cautiously.

"This king is out of the palace. If anyone comes looking for it, they will say that this king is tired and rested." The man said coldly.

The little servant nodded, "Yes."

"Remember to get your punishment, and remember better in the future." The man said, walking towards the outside of the hall.

Hearing this, the little servant plopped down on the ground, his face turned pale with fright, "Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince."

He really couldn't escape the punishment.

Their Highness the Crown Prince is too terrifying.

The little slave cried bitterly in his heart.
