Daughter of the Prince of Rebirth

Chapter 16 The Pearl Was Stolen
Murong Yu stood up unhurriedly: "Sister Lin is admirable, there are many beautiful and talented women in the capital, and my sister is just a drop in the ocean. I went to the palace to enjoy the flowers, just to make more friends, not for other things..."

Murong Lin curled her lips secretly: Don't talk so grandly, dress up like a fairy, isn't it to seduce those royal princes...

However, Nanny Chai repeatedly praised: A truly smart person will not talk about his true purpose all the time. As far as this matter is concerned, the eldest lady is more than a step ahead of the second lady...

"Chai Momo came to Yanyu Pavilion, but something happened?" Chai Momo was the old lady's dowry maid, so she would not come to Yanyu Pavilion for no reason.

"The old madam wants the old servant to take a look for her. Does this dress fit the eldest lady?" Nanny Chai put down the teacup in her hand, and glanced back and forth between the clothes and Murong Yu's body.

She wanted to see how beautiful she would be when she put on this dress, and how many princes she could attract attention. Murong Yu said calmly, "I have to go to Lao Chai personally, Qin'er!"

Murong Yu stood up, and Qin'er picked up the clothes. Immediately, the diamonds shone brightly, and the pearls shone brightly, catching the eyes of everyone in the room. Murong Lin was furious: If there was no Murong Yu, this dress would be hers. Everything is better than her...

"Sister, one button is missing!" Qin'er was about to carefully put on the beautiful clothes for Murong Yu, when Murong Lin, who was beside her with sharp eyes, exclaimed, unable to hide her gloating.

Murong Yu turned around. The color of the dress was specially chosen by the old lady. There were three blooming flowers embroidered on the front, each stamen was inlaid with a shining pearl, which added aura to the luxury, and now only Two, the flowers suddenly lost their vividness and were quite inferior: "What's going on?"

"Those three pearls were specially ordered by the old lady to be sewn on the clothes by the embroiderer!" Nanny Chai also became anxious: it was the old lady's dowry.

If it is an ordinary pearl, maybe other matches can be found, but the old lady's pearls are all unique, there is nothing similar in the mansion, this matter, Murong Yu has to take care of it.

Murong Yu's sharp eyes swept over the maids one by one, and finally landed on Mung Dou. She brought the clothes, and she had enough time to do her tricks.

"Miss, it's none of your servant's business, I really don't care about your servant's business." Mung Dou knelt down on the ground, crying with tears all over her face: "After my servant took the clothes from Songshoutang, I always held them carefully. There is no mistake, there are so many people coming and going in and out of the inner room, it is hard to guarantee that some servants are not blinded by the money, and secretly took away the pearl." Quietly raised his head and glanced at the people with different expressions: "Just now Qin'er touched the clothes..."

"I won't steal the pearl." Qin'er's pretty face flushed with anger: In order to shirk responsibility, Mung Dou actually blamed the matter on her, it's really annoying.

"Sister, my grandmother spent a lot of manpower and material resources to make the clothes. If one pearl is missing, I can't wear it to a banquet. I am afraid that my sister will let down my grandmother's kindness..." In this way, Murong The rain offended the old lady, and the days in the Hou's mansion were never easy.

Mung Dou shrugged her shoulders, crying very sadly, fearing that others would not hear, she roared loudly: "The maids in Songshoutang are old people in the mansion, and Qin'er and others are used to serving the eldest lady, only slaves come to Yanyu Pavilion For half a year, the eldest miss suspected that the slaves should be, everything is the fault of the slaves, I didn't expect the stakes in it, the eldest miss should punish the slaves severely, don't lose peace with the old lady because of the slaves..."

Mung Dou's move made those who doubted her a little loose: Could it be that she really didn't take the pearl...

Murong Yu raised her eyebrows slightly, she was really eloquent, not only did she not admit her mistake, but also smeared her without any trace. If she really punished Mung Dou severely, others would definitely think that she was trying to please the old lady and cover up the real criminal by punishing Mung Dou, an innocent person. People will definitely be accused of harsh servants, and their reputation will be ruined.

"Why are you crying? I didn't say you stole the pearl." Murong Yu's voice suddenly turned cold, and his gentle eyes were secretly sharp. Did not fall into her trap...

"The clothes were fine when they were delivered to the Hou's Mansion, but they were brought to Yanyu Pavilion, but a pearl was missing. Elder sister, why don't you call all the people who have touched the clothes to interrogate them. If they don't tell the whereabouts of the pearls, all of them will be sent to you." Sell." In this way, they are not afraid that they will not confess.Murong Lin complacently offered advice.

Nanny Chai glanced at Murong Lin, her eyes were displeased: After the clothes were sent to Songshou Hall, she was the one who took care of them all the time. The second young lady said this because she suspected that she had stolen the pearl. She is the old lady's dowry maid. After working so hard in the Hou Mansion for so many years, how could I do such trivial things...

Murong Yu smiled slightly: "Just as Second Miss said, call all the maids and nuns in the Hou Mansion who have touched clothes to Yanyu Pavilion."

"Sister, the clothes belong to you. You are the one who asked the girls to come here after interrogating them. My sister dare not go overboard." The bad idea was hers.

"Sister Lin, don't need to be humble. My sister came up with the plan. How dare I take credit for it." Most of Song Shoutang's elders in the mansion asked them to come and cooperate with the investigation of this matter. No matter whether they stole the pearl or not, it was a distrust of them. That is to say, if she has doubts about the old lady, even if she finds the pearl, it will leave a bad impression on the old lady. Murong Lin would not want to push this kind of thankless thing to her.

After a cup of tea, several nuns and maids were invited to Yanyu Pavilion.

"It's getting late, my sister is going to the flower feast, so don't be late, why don't you let my sister share her worries and help interrogate these servants." Murong Yu also said that she was the one who came up with the idea. If a good person does it to the end, let him be tried too.

Murong Yu sneered, to share his worries?It's nice to say that things started because of me, if Murong Lin messed around with these servants, even if she censored them, what the servants would remember in their hearts was how harshly she, the young lady, blamed the servants. It's completely written off, dirty names, and infamy are all for myself to recite.
