chapter 388

After watching Pei Jinhua leave, Ning Yuyao turned to look at Pei Caiwei, threw the broken agate bracelet he had been holding onto the table, and shouted, "You should recognize it!"

Pei Caiwei stepped forward to take a closer look, and it really was the agate bracelet she threw to Xia Yuanxi that day in order to show off!

"My lord clearly found out that this thing is indeed the dowry of my natal family when I got married, but it can only be said that it belonged to me in the past. I gave this thing to Xia Yuanxi when I was leaving the house during the celebration banquet of the Zhenguo Mansion that day, so it It's not mine anymore!" She knelt down in front of Ning Yuyao with a plop and raised her head.

"Xia Yuanxi? You have always been at odds with her, and you will kindly give her this high-quality agate?" Ning Yuyao asked suspiciously, apparently skeptical of Pei Caiwei's words.

Pei Caiwei bit her lip, and finally told the truth, she said aggrievedly, "I gave her the bracelet just to humiliate her, but my lord, it was Xia Yuanxi who humiliated me first!"

"Humiliation? How did she humiliate you?" Ning Yuyao's Pei Caiwei's words were somewhat believable, and she followed her words to ask.

Pei Caiwei was silent for a moment, a trace of resentment flashed across her face, "She laughed at my dress for the banquet that day!"

Hearing Pei Caiwei's words, Ning Yuyao already believed that even though Pei Caiwei was delicate and savage, she was always ruthless and ruthless in her actions, and would never allow others to belittle her in the slightest.

"Are you sure this is the bracelet you gave Xia Yuanxi?"

"I'm sure, my lord, the bracelet can be made the same, but the agate on it is absolutely unique, this is the bracelet I gave to Xia Yuanxi!" Pei Caiwei replied with absolute certainty.

Seeing that Ning Yuyao was just staring at her and didn't respond for a long while, she continued, "But my lord, don't you suspect that Xia Yuanxi was also framed by someone? She was born as a lowly girl, how can she not be able to hide it? What about killing Xuanji and poisoning the palace? Besides... the group of assassins I met on the way back were not trained by the plopping family. Specially trained slayers!"

Pei Caiwei recalled the scene of distress on the road, her face turned pale, and she still had lingering fears.

"Oh?" Ning Yuyao didn't think that the assassin who assassinated Pei Caiwei would be a dead man. Thinking about it again, it seems that Xia Yuanxi really didn't have the strength to do such a thing. Could it be that the agate bracelet dug out from the backyard was really planted by someone else? for her?
There are too many people involved in this matter, but they are all the female family members of the palace. Apart from Pei Caiwei and Xia Yuanxi wanting to get rid of the trouble, Ning Yuyao really can't think of any other reasons for the moment. Secretly decided to call Wan Cui to ask why.

After a lot of tossing, the night was dark, Ning Yuyao hesitated, and whispered to Zhuo Yuan outside the door, "Send the princess back to the Lianyu Tower, and send more people to protect it. Before the matter is clarified, no outsiders are allowed to contact the princess. , At the same time, if the princess loses a hair, you know what the consequences will be."

This is clearly a disguised form of confinement!
Pei Caiwei opened her mouth to refute, but Ning Yuyao shouted, "Aren't you satisfied with a few days of freedom in exchange for your life?"

After being shouted at like this, Pei Caiwei immediately came to her senses, life is of course more important than freedom, those soldiers who were sent to assassinate her might not come a second time!
