Concubine is always arrogant

Chapter 65
Seeing that the young man was frightened like this, the prince waved his hand, and guards around him immediately stepped forward and took Li Hongyu aside.

Seeing that he was saved, the little fellow kowtowed repeatedly, "His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness, I really haven't seen him before, I really haven't seen this person before."

"Okay," Murong Haoxuan glanced at Li Hongyu proudly, as if to demonstrate to him, "Come here, take him away, there is no need here."

After getting the testimony he wanted, the prince Murong Haoxuan propped up his chin with both hands, and looked at Li Hongyu, "It's come to this point, if you don't say anything, I'm going to torture you."

"Wait a minute," Yan Jiuxuan stood up suddenly when the boy was about to be taken away, "His Royal Highness, there may be some misunderstanding, why don't you let Jiuxuan ask?"

Yan Jiuxuan stood up to speak for Li Hongyu, except for Li Hongyu who was relieved, everyone else was not very happy.

Several people frowned, now that Yan Jiuxuan stood up to speak, it seemed that she cared too much about this person.

Yan Jiuxuan spoke up in person, but Murong Haoxuan couldn't refuse directly, "Okay, since Jiuxuan has such an idea, let Jiuxuan ask."

The boy kept repeating that he had never seen this person until he came back again.

Yan Jiuxuan walked up to him, and said softly, "You are a clerk in the pawn shop, how long have you been working in the pawn shop?"

"Back to the girl." Because he didn't know Yan Jiuxuan's identity, the boy directly called Yan Jiuxuan a girl, and his attitude was considered respectful. Been a buddy for about six years."

The boy's reply was very detailed, and judging from his actions, Yan Jiuxuan also knew that he was not lying.

But Yan Jiuxuan didn't rush to ask the most important question directly.

"Then I heard that the pawn shop was stolen a while ago, is there such a thing?"

As soon as this point was mentioned, the young man quickly nodded and said yes, "Yes, the pawn shop was indeed stolen a while ago, the thief was really hateful, he stole nothing but a valuable jade pendant. "

Hearing the boy's reply, Li Hongyu immediately understood what Yan Jiuxuan was going to do, and hope reappeared in his heart.

Li Hongyu looked at Yan Jiuxuan with eyes full of hope, this scene fell in Murong Chenyi's eyes, and Murong Chenyi felt a little uncomfortable.

That is obviously his own person, why does that person look at his own person like this.

As for Yan Jiuxuan, Murong Chenyi wished he could be pampered in his own house, and not want her to show any good side to others.

"Have you seen the jade pendant?"

The little guy nodded, "The little one just glanced at it carelessly, not very detailed."

Hearing this, Yan Jiuxuan walked back to Murong Chenyi's side, reached out and took off the jade pendant on his waist, "Look, is it this jade pendant?"

It's clever, Murong Chenyi secretly praised in his heart, knowing what Yan Jiuxuan was going to do next.

But it's not clear if she understands what it means to do this in front of so many people.

The corner of Murong Chenyi's smiling mouth seemed to be a little smug.

This scene did not escape Murong Xuyang, who had been observing his eighth brother. He had been looking at Murong Chenyi since Yan Jiuxuan spoke just now.

He knew Murong Chenyi's character to some extent, and it is estimated that Yan Jiuxuan would definitely like Murong Chenyi if he did this.

But now... Murong Xuyang touched his chin, and Yan Jiuxuan made this action in public. It can be seen how close the relationship between the two is. It is estimated that the eighth brother Yu Zu's mood has been healed just now.

And the prince, who was already in a bad mood because of Yan Jiuxuan speaking for Li Hongyu, felt even worse when he saw Yan Jiuxuan making such a natural and intimate gesture to Murong Chenyi.

The current situation of these two people is very bad. Even the emperor has not granted a marriage. Judging by the appearance of these two people, the relationship between the two is developing rapidly.

The young man looked at the jade pendant in front of him carefully, then shook his head, "It's not the same, this jade pendant should be better than the one in our pawnshop last time in terms of quality and workmanship, if a jade pendant of such quality is pawned, We dare not take it."

"Don't dare to accept it?" Yan Jiuxuan was puzzled.

"Yes," the young man explained for Yan Jiuxuan, "This jade and this workmanship can be seen as belongings of the royal family at first glance. If you take it away, you will lose your head."

She didn't expect that there would be such a problem, Yan Jiuxuan silently remembered this point, and she had to keep this point in mind in the future, maybe it would be useful in future encounters.

After finishing the digression, Yan Jiuxuan continued to ask him: "Then can you explain to me in detail, what is the difference between that jade pendant and this one?"

The little guy described it bit by bit according to his memory, and Yan Jiuxuan listened unhurriedly.

Sure enough, after listening to the boy's description, Yan Jiuxuan got up and took the jade pendant from the wooden plate, "Is this what you described?"

"Yes, yes, it probably looks like this. There is indeed a Li character on it," the little guy nodded, but he spoke impeccably, "but the young one didn't see it very clearly at the time, but the jade pendant is still very similar to this one." similar."

"Okay, sorry to trouble you." Yan Jiuxuan kindly asked the boy to be sent back.

The jade pendant as evidence was put back on the wooden tray, and Yan Jiuxuan re-fastened Murong Chenyi's jade pendant for him as well.

After finishing everything, Yan Jiuxuan stood up and looked at Murong Haoxuan, "His Royal Highness, he is a pawnbroker after all, so of course he should remember clearly what he pawned. It is understandable for him to forget Mr. Li's face."

"This jade pendant did pass by the pawnshop once. I hope His Royal Highness finds out who stole it."

As if very tired, Yan Jiuxuan sat back in her seat and looked at Murong Haoxuan with undeniable seriousness in her eyes.

"His Royal Highness," Yan Jiuxuan said in a low voice, "after all, this is a matter of life and death. I hope that His Royal Highness will not make such mistakes again. If the culprit is not brought to justice, the two princes and His Royal Highness may I can’t sleep peacefully anymore.”

Yan Jiuxuan's meaning was obvious enough, and the court was completely quiet.

Murong Haoxuan's face was gloomy, but then as if remembering something, he clapped his hands and smiled and said, "Jiuxuan is really smart, but I didn't think carefully, Jiuxuan is right, if this really makes the culprit slip through the net Yu, then Ben Gong and the two younger brothers will not be able to sleep."

Li Hongyu originally thought that he had escaped this incident, but he did not expect that the prince did not intend to release him, but instead brought him back to the prison.

"After all, this is a very important person in this matter. The prince will not treat him badly in prison, so it is safer to stay in prison."
