Good luck of rebirth

Chapter 440 The gift of return (5)
At this time, the queen suddenly opened her mouth and said softly: "Your Majesty, since Miss Mo Wu has changed her clothes and returned, it is natural that Miss Mo Wu stole this golden hairpin. In this way, the concubines and the people around my sister, I'm afraid there are suspicions. Since my younger sister cares so much about her gold hairpin, she will find out whatever she says, according to my concubine, don't take off your clothes, you should be able to find it by touching it with your hands."

After hearing this, the emperor felt that it made sense. The golden hairpin must be found, otherwise today's farce would really be difficult to end, so he ordered the empress and the people around the concubine to stand in line and let the trusted female officials around him to search.

The queen and the maids around the noble concubine heard the emperor's words, and whoever dared to cry and refuse to obey them all obediently and waited for the search.

Jin Hao just watched, without saying a word, although her background was not too noble, but the person she was betrothed to was very noble, the eldest princess, the son of Marquis Weiyuan, and the current stepfather was the third master Zhu, so naturally It is not comparable to these court ladies.

The female officials searched the past one by one, but nothing was found. The sneer at the corner of the imperial concubine's mouth gradually came back. As long as no golden hairpins were found on these court ladies, the crime would still fall on Mo Jinhao. She said Well, after Mo Jinhao stole something, he was afraid again, who knows which corner of the palace he threw away.

She looked at Jin Hao with cold eyes, and smiled coldly, and Jin Hao sneered at her without fear, a cold light flashed in her eyes.

At this moment, the last person has been searched, it is none other than the palace lady who planted Jin Jin, I saw the lady officer reached out and groped her a few times, and saw her complexion change, from the sleeve of the palace lady , found a gold hairpin and held it up.

Everyone looked at the butterfly flying under the sun, and suddenly there was an uproar. It was the golden hairpin given by the emperor to the imperial concubine.

It turned out that it was stolen by an internal thief.

"This...this...impossible..."

The court lady looked at the gold hairpin, shook her head vigorously, and opened her eyes wide in disbelief: How could this happen? She obviously stuffed the gold hairpin into Mo Jinhao's body with her own hands, but how could it be found on her body? .

Jin Hao looked at the court lady with disdain: "What is impossible, whoever harms others will be killed."

The empress glanced at the shocked imperial concubine who seemed to be about to drop her eyeballs to the ground, and sighed softly: "The people around my sister have always been well-behaved, so why did they raise such a thief who steals and steals? Zhangkou wronged Miss Mo Wu. My sister is really confused, she actually believed the insider's words and insisted on searching Miss Mo Wu. According to my intention, my sister must apologize to Miss Mo Wu."

The imperial concubine was tongue-tied, her eyeballs almost popped out of the frame, and she couldn't say a word: How could this happen, how could this gold hairpin...it shouldn't be!

She stared fiercely at the maid, who was trembling with fright, she knew the methods of the imperial concubine, if she couldn't do something, it would never end well.

Murderous intent flashed in the imperial concubine's eyes, but she said in her mouth: "This slave has been with the concubine for many years, and his hands and feet are always clean. It is absolutely impossible for him to do such a thing of stealing against the master."

The emperor frowned: "The truth of the matter has been revealed, and the stolen goods have been obtained together, so there is nothing more to say."

"Your majesty..." The imperial concubine did not give up.

It's just that the emperor didn't have the heart to deal with such a trivial matter anymore, and his tone was light, but with a firmness that could not be ignored: "It's just a trivial matter, and my concubine should not worry too much about it."

The imperial concubine knew the emperor quite well, and knew that the theft was over, but how could she be willing to let Jin Hao go like this, so she said again: "The emperor is right, but it is a trivial matter. But Zhu Sanye and Mo The Fifth Young Lady made a big disturbance in the palace of the concubines, if she is easily spared, how will the concubines gain a foothold in the palace in the future..."

The emperor frowned as he looked at the mess on the ground, but the empress laughed first: "Sister, the moment you opened your mouth, you searched your body, beat you to death, and so on. After suffering such a great injustice, who can bear it?"

The queen smiled and looked at the emperor, smiling like the spring breeze in April: "Your majesty, according to my concubines, today's matter, rewards and punishments are clearly defined, so that the emperor's sageness can be demonstrated, and the emperor's clarity these years can not be damaged."

After hearing this, the emperor pondered for a moment, and then said casually: "Come here, drag out this dog slave who dared to steal the concubine's golden hairpin, and kill him with a stick."

When the maid heard this, her body trembled, her whole body went limp, and she quickly kowtowed and begged for mercy: "The emperor spares my life, the emperor spares this servant, please forgive this servant..."

However, the eunuch beside the emperor respectfully complied, and dragged the maid down like a dead dog. The maid was so frightened that she passed out.

Everyone, they only heard the sound from the panel outside, but they didn't even scream. They knew in their hearts that their mouths were gagged, and they were afraid of shocking the masters.

After a while, I heard the eunuch come back and report: "Your Majesty, you have been killed with a stick."

The imperial concubine's face turned pale, but the empress's lips flashed a cruel smile, but soon returned to a soft arc, and said to the imperial concubine: "Sister, as the master of the six palaces , Some things have to be said, my sister has always been kind-hearted, but she can't manipulate the slaves around her like this, she should be more disciplined in the future, and such things must never happen again."

The imperial concubine was so angry that she almost vomited blood. Just as she was about to speak back, her gaze collided with the emperor's thoughtful gaze. There was a sudden chill on her back, and a chill rose in her heart, and she couldn't stop shivering. .

After all, the imperial concubine has been in the palace for many years, and she knows the emperor very well. Knowing what to do at this time can best dispel the emperor's suspicion. I will discipline them carefully, and I will never indulge these slaves again."

He raised his head to the emperor again and said: "Your Majesty is indeed a wise man. This kind of slave who steals and betrays his master is really abominable. Even if the Emperor does not send her away, the concubine will not be able to spare her here."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at the palace servants around him again, and said in a heavy tone, "You should keep this matter in mind today, and don't learn from this lowly maidservant in the future and do such shameful things. For those who have unruly thoughts, this palace will definitely not forgive."

The palace people around the imperial concubine were all terrified when they heard the words, they quickly knelt down and said in unison: "Yes, slaves and maidservants remember the teachings of the empress."

Seeing this, the emperor nodded in satisfaction, took another look at Jinhao, and said, "You have been wronged today, and I will give you a thousand taels of gold." Then he gave Zhu Sanye another look: "You are getting bolder and bolder. It's gone." Zhu Sanye just bowed his head and smiled innocently, but the emperor turned and left without further training.

After Jinhao thanked her, she walked up to the imperial concubine and said with a smile: "Young concubine, you must be careful next time you employ someone, otherwise who knows if you will be another lowly servant who betrays the master."
