Chapter 705 Blow up the Rebels’ House (6)
"This...Mu Shilang didn't say..., maybe it was placed too tightly, and I couldn't remember it for a while..." Concubine Ye Gui felt more and more ominous. The token was made by the carpenter in the palace ordered by the emperor. If it is lost, it means not paying attention to the token rewarded by the emperor, and the emperor will definitely be displeased. If it is stolen, it means that the token is not valued, and the emperor is not respected, and the emperor will definitely be unhappy.

The answer is a dilemma.

"It's better for my concubine Xuanmu Shilang to come into the palace and ask..." Concubine Ye Gui didn't know the ins and outs of the matter, so naturally she couldn't fabricate a complete lie. The emperor is a smart person, so she didn't dare to speak nonsense to avoid revealing flaws.

"Don't bother, this token was picked up by someone else. It has the word Mu on it. It should belong to Duke Wei's mansion. You return it to Duke Wei on my behalf. Remind him to place it properly, and keep a close eye on it carefully, so as not to be caught. Xiaoxiao's generation stole it and dropped it where it shouldn't be dropped..."

What does it mean to fall in a place where it should not be dropped?
In doubt, the emperor stood up and strode out: "Go back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation!"

"Concubine concubine send the emperor respectfully!" After following the emperor for many years, Concubine Ye Gui understood the emperor's temper, said one is one, said two is two, and never changed his decision for anyone. Can't keep him.

After the emperor left, Concubine Ye looked at the token in her hand and muttered to herself: "What does the emperor mean by that?"

"Bai Lu, when did you lose the token of Duke Mu's Mansion?" Bai Lu is a confidant maid brought by Concubine Ye Gui from her natal family. She often runs between the palace and Duke Wei's mansion to deliver news, and is quite familiar with the affairs of Duke Wei's mansion.

"This..." Bai Lu frowned and thought for a moment: "The slave girl is in the Duke of Wei's mansion, and I accidentally heard the servant minister mention that after he made an appointment with the killer, he lost a token..."

Could it be that this token fell at the place where my brother met the killer?The shock in Concubine Ye Gui's heart can't be described in words: The emperor found out that she bribed a killer to assassinate Ouyang Shaoxian?

wrong!

Concubine Ye Gui immediately overturned her own thoughts. Although she is a noble concubine, assassinating the prince is a serious crime. The emperor should punish her severely after getting the token. He will never return such important evidence to her easily. It is obvious I'm helping her get away with it, unless...

Concubine Ye Gui narrowed her beautiful eyes, and the answer in her heart was ready to come out.

The fact that Xie Qingyang asked for elite soldiers to wipe out the rebels had already spread throughout the harem, and Concubine Ye Gui naturally knew about it.

It was discovered that Xie Qingyang was the one who captured the rebels, Xie Qingyang was Murong Yu's cousin, Murong Yu was Ouyang Shaoxian's concubine, Ouyang Shaoxian was the prince's man, and the man who held the token to testify against Concubine Ye Gui , it may be the information provided by the rebels on their own initiative, or it may be deliberately provided by Xie Qingyang.

Concubine Ye Gui had been in the palace for many years and had given birth to a prince. Duke Wei's mansion is also a century-old family with many connections. Once this incident happened, it would involve a lot of entanglements. Therefore, the emperor returned the token to Concubine Ye Gui as a warning and to beat her up.

What's more, the emperor was skeptical about this matter, and he couldn't figure out whether Concubine Ye Gui really bought the murder, or the rebels were lying. Therefore, the emperor gave the token to Concubine Ye Gui as a test, secretly observing Concubine Ye Gui, the prince, Ouyang Shaoxian, or Xie Qingyang's reaction, whoever makes the first move is the biggest suspect!
Lifting her lips and smiling slightly, Concubine Ye Gui handed the token to Bai Lu, and said solemnly: "Bai Lu, you go back to the mansion, hand the token to Duke Wei, and remind him that the situation has changed, so don't act rashly!"

If I stay in Changle Palace peacefully and peacefully, the emperor will not be able to catch anything. If the prince or Ouyang Shaoxian, who are eager to punish themselves, can't hold back their temper and make tricks to design themselves, they will be suspected by the emperor. At that time, they will be unlucky!
Since ancient times, women have been more patient than men, so Concubine Ye Gui will never lose in this battle of patience.

There are many things in the palace, there are many people, and the eyes are also complicated. In order to prevent people from discovering the clues, Bai Lu did not dare to waste too much time, so she came to Wei Guogong's mansion with a token, presented the token, and repeated Ye Guifei's words to Wei Guogong. leave.

Wei Guogong looked at the token on the high table with a gloomy expression: "Come here, go and call the young master and young master Sun!" Wei Guogong is the head of the family, his son Mu Shilang is the young master, and his grandson Mu Xin is the young master Sun!
Wei Guogong looked for him, Mu Shilang and Mu Xin didn't dare to neglect, and quickly came to the study: "Father!"

"grandfather!"

Wei Guogong held up the token in front of the two of them, his eyes were displeased, and he was secretly angry: "Do you recognize it, what is it?"

"The token of the Mu Mansion!" It's just that, it's all right, what is Wei Guogong doing with the token of the Mu Mansion?
"This token was returned to Concubine Ye Gui by the Emperor, and Concubine Ye Gui ordered Bai Lu to send it!" Wei Guogong's cold eyes swept back and forth on the surprised faces of Mu Shilang and Mu Xin: "According to Bai Lu, it fell I was picked up at the place where you were talking with the killer..."

"This..." Mu Shilang's complexion changed drastically: "Does the emperor doubt us?"

"Otherwise, what do you think?" The emperor is the Ninth Five-Year Lord, and he personally went to Changle Palace to return the token of Concubine Ye Gui, which was clearly a warning, even if the Emperor did not punish Concubine Ye Gui, he would not trust them as before.

"Is the matter serious?" Mu Xin asked cautiously. In fact, Mu Shilang went with Mu Xin on the day of the murder. In order to exercise Mu Xin's ability, the person who talked to the killer was not Mu Shilang, but Mu Xin. , The person who lost the token was also Mu Xin.

"Bring a murderer to assassinate the prince, do you think the matter is big or small?" His son and grandson are good at handling things, but they are a little careless. Such an important thing as a token is dropped, and the perfect plan is suspected by the emperor. Where is the good life.

Mu Xin lowered his eyelids, feeling inexplicably irritable. Wei Guogong's stern tone was blaming him for his carelessness, but he just wanted to help the elders share their worries. He didn't expect to lose the token and bring trouble to the Mu family...

"When you do things, you must be cautious and careless. It will only bring you and your loved ones unexpected troubles. Next time, the situation of our Mu Mansion will be worrisome..." Dropping the token is a huge mistake, but also a fatal carelessness!
