C260 false depression (2/2)
”Are you implying that I'm not as trustworthy as you, a maid?” When the Eleventh Princess saw that Mu Ru Yue insisted on protecting Yun'er, she was instantly enraged.
”I'm just talking about it.” Mu Ru Yue replied coldly.
”You!” Princess Eleven glared viciously at Mu Ru Yue and Yun'er. Lady Wan, on the other hand, put on a troubled expression and said, ”Princess Eleven, let's just forget about it. It's just a golden hairpin around here. ”
”Impossible!” This princess was ordered to send you a golden hairpin. How could I let that golden hairpin drop it! Mu Ru Yue, I respect you as my royal sister-in-law. I'm not afraid to tell you that this golden hairpin was used to accompany the empress dowager! ”She personally agreed to give it to Big Sister Wan. If you listen to us properly and settle the matter, that's fine. But if you don't, then we'll have to go to the empress dowager's side today!”
Princess Eleven said arrogantly. Her big eyes were filled with disgust towards Mu Ru Yue and Yun'er.
Mu Ru Yue also felt a headache coming on. She had just heard about the secret of the treasure map and was feeling depressed about it. Now, she still had to deal with these two!
”May I know how the princess resolve the matter?” Although she didn't want to care about it, if she really did cause trouble for the empress dowager … Mu Ru Yue couldn't help but shudder.
”Didn't you just say it? You have to find evidence to punish yourself. In that case, this princess will bring people to search your courtyard. For the entire day, except for going to Sister Wan's place, you've been in your yard as a maid!
In order to make her admit her mistake, this princess has ordered people to keep an eye on her! That golden hairpin must be in this courtyard! ” The woman's attitude was firm!
When Mu Ru Yue heard this, her heart skipped a beat. If she had been able to convince herself that Lady Wan and the eleventh princess had come looking for death, then searching her house was different.
It was likely that someone else was scheming behind their backs. As she thought about it, Mu Ru Yue's gaze turned cold as she looked at the two of them and asked, ”What if I don't agree?”
”Then come with us to the empress dowager's presence to reason. I believe that no one will dare to get away from the crime in front of the empress dowager.” Princess Eleven said proudly.
So, was he trying to trick her into going to the palace?
To her, the palace was like a dragon's lagoon or a tiger's den. It was a place she could not go to. Mu Ru Yue instantly frowned. Yun'er was worried as well. She hadn't thought that she would be charged with such a crime after she came back from being called to Lady Wan's place.
”How is it? Do you want us to search the area, or do you want us to go with you to the empress dowager? ” When Princess Eleven saw that Mu Ru Yue had turned silent, there was a trace of pride in her tone. Just as Mu Ru Yue was in a dilemma, a slightly hoarse voice was heard. ”Searching for what?”
When the voice rang out, Mu Ru Yue instantly heaved a sigh of relief. As she looked towards the door, she saw the red-clothed man standing in front of her. His enchanting face was filled with a cold expression.
”Big brother Phoenix Seep.”
”Royal brother?”
Lady Wan and Princess Eleven spoke at the same time.
”Eleven, why have you come to this king's residence? What are you doing here with this duke's consort? ” Feng Zhi looked at the Eleventh Princess unkindly. He, the Eleventh royal sister, was someone from the side of the proper empress.
It was obvious that something bad was going to happen if he stayed with Mu Rong Yue! The recent events had already caused him to become extremely anxious. What were they trying to do now?
”Imperial Brother, I came under the orders of esteemed empress dowager to give Big Sister Wan a golden hairpin. Unexpectedly, Big Sister Wan's golden hairpin disappeared without a trace.” The only person who had ever been to her courtyard was a young maid named Yun'er.
I ordered someone to keep watch here and make sure that the maidservant didn't leave the prince's mansion for a whole day, and only stayed in the prince's wife's courtyard. Thus, he wanted to search this place. However, my royal sister-in-law doesn't allow me to do so, and even wants me to protect this maid. How am I supposed to go back and explain this? ”
Princess Eleven looked wronged, as if she was a completely different person from her previous arrogance.
