Chapter 222 Stealing Silver
The two each picked some gouache and lip red, and finally met on the same box of eyebrow powder. They each took half of the eyebrow powder box, you look at me, I look at you.

Concubine Hua was also taken aback, she didn't expect that they both fell in love with the same eyebrow powder.

In the end, Huan'er let go of her hand and said: "If the princess likes it, I'd better give it to the princess, and Huan'er will choose something else."

Lin Xiaorou also smiled, pushed the eyebrow powder in front of her, and said, "No, I'd better give it to you, I don't like makeup in the first place, maybe my sister needs it more than I do!"

In the end, the eyebrow powder went to Lin Xiaorou, because Huan'er, whom the princess loved, dared to ask for it blatantly, no matter how much she hated her, she could only suppress it.

Concubine Hua looked at them and was about to speak, when suddenly the maid came to report that Concubine Jing was coming.

When Concubine Jing came, the three of them were taken aback, Concubine Hua and Huan'er were fine, but Lin Xiaorou became nervous, that crazy woman is really unlucky, she will appear wherever she goes!It's too late to leave now.

He had no choice but to get up and follow Concubine Hua to the door to meet the guests.

Although this Concubine Jing is also a concubine, she is obviously of a higher rank than Concubine Hua, so when she comes, Concubine Hua has to greet her like a little servant girl.

Standing behind Concubine Hua, Lin Xiaorou saw Nangong Jing who was dressed conspicuously in a red dress. Nangong Jing came slowly like a proud fire phoenix. As soon as she entered the door, she saw the three of them.

"Unfortunately, Concubine Hua is receiving guests."

"It's just a gathering between sisters." Concubine Hua spoke softly, her voice was as comfortable as quicksand rubbing her fingers.

Nan Gongjing walked in front of Concubine Hua, but looked past her and directly met Lin Xiaorou's, then bent her lips and gave Lin Xiaorou a look that only she could understand.

"what is this!"

Suddenly Nangong Jing pointed to the rouge on the stone table, Concubine Hua's complexion changed, and she said with a smile: "It's just some rouge powder."

Lin Xiaorou noticed that Concubine Hua's hands were trembling slightly, she seemed very nervous, and was a little puzzled, so she heard Nan Gongjing say again: "This is the high-quality rouge that Qingyinfang just offered a few days ago, I returned the last one yesterday. I was asking the emperor for it, but it all came to you today, it seems that Concubine Hua has been very happy recently!"

Concubine Hua has indeed been lucky a few times recently, so it is quite normal to get this reward, but Nangong Jing can't tolerate her fancy things being robbed by others.

"It's a pity, I like these rouges too."

Concubine Hua didn't speak, she lowered her head silently and seemed a little scared.

This woman has the guts to flirt with Prince Jing under the eyes of the emperor, but she doesn't have the guts to face a concubine Jing. Lin Xiaorou secretly finds it funny. Maybe it's because women always feel that they can defeat a man with their own softness, but they can't use the same way to subdue a man. a woman.

Nangong Jing glanced at Concubine Hua, then sat down, and suddenly opened her mouth wide and said, "Just now when I was leaving, I passed a small ditch, and there seemed to be some mud splashed on my shoes, and I have to ask someone to wipe it off. .”

"Niangniang, let the slaves come."

Concubine Hua's maid hurriedly walked over and knelt down to shine Concubine Jing's shoes, but Concubine Jing kicked her away and said arrogantly: "My shoes are made of silk from the heavens bestowed by the emperor, you are not qualified Shine my shoes."

After speaking, his eyes glanced at Concubine Hua intentionally or unintentionally.

Be darling, wouldn't it be for Concubine Hua to shine her shoes? Lin Xiaorou was so worried when she saw Concubine Hua's body froze, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes, and then she walked over step by step, knelt down and held her hands like the maid just now. Let’s start with her shoes. The shoes are actually very clean. Concubine Jing is just looking for a reason to step Concubine Hua on the soles of her feet so that she can recognize her identity, let alone go beyond her authority and take away what belongs to her. , these concubines understand, so no matter how embarrassing she is, she can only swallow her anger. After all, the emperor's favorite is Concubine Jing. She sank to the bottom of the lake and drowned without anyone noticing.

Concubine Hua carefully polished Concubine Jing's shoes, Lin Xiaorou stared blankly at Huan'er.

"Since Concubine Jing is here, why don't you also go to the Biyun Pavilion in this palace? We haven't seen each other for a long time and it's time to catch up."

Tell the fuck old!Lin Xiaorou gave a salute, and said with a smile: "Today is too hasty. There are urgent matters in the mansion, so I may not be able to go. Why don't we make an appointment at another time. Please forgive me, Concubine Jing."

"Oh, really!" Nangong Jing raised her brows, squinted her eyes and smiled, and said, "That means Princess Jing won't give Ben Gong this face?"

Lin Xiaorou didn't speak, neither refusing nor agreeing.

Nangong Jing was not annoyed, and suddenly stretched out her foot and kicked Concubine Hua to the ground as well: "You hurt me!"

Concubine Hua was extremely aggrieved but she gritted her teeth and dared not show her aggrievedness. Lin Xiaorou didn't want to take care of these things, after all, it had nothing to do with her, but Nan Gongjing did all this just to show her, and it seems that Concubine Hua has not harmed her so far. Although she was a little jealous, she was generally harmless. Thinking of the help Prince Jing secretly gave her recently, she gritted her teeth and roared silently in her heart: Lord Jing, you bastard, I will return your kindness to protect your woman today.

Lin Xiaorou walked over, helped Concubine Hua up, and then patted the dust off her body.

Concubine Hua didn't dare to look at her, her eyes were slightly red, and she stood silently with her head down.

Seeing that Lin Xiaorou dared to help Concubine Hua, Nangong Jing was furious. Just as she was about to speak, Lin Xiaorou was a step ahead of her: "Your Majesty, the palms and backs of your hands are full of flesh. We are all sisters, and no one is good. If the Emperor summons Concubine Hua today It's not good for each other to see injuries."

"What did you say!"

"Mistress, don't worry, just think about it, Muxiu is bound to be destroyed by the forest wind, and now the imperial harem is the most popular in the harem. To put it heart and soul, the empress should be so favored, but the favor is too much. It’s bound to arouse people’s envy, so it’s better to keep your posture low, and it’s not easy for people to catch you, after all, there will be another crop of leek after cutting it.”

This is simply plucking the hair from the tiger's mouth. It sounds like honest words, but the irony in it is that a fool can understand it, but it just doesn't make sense to refute it.

Nangong Jingqi's hands trembled, and she stood up and glared at Lin Xiaorou angrily. Their eyes met, and Lin Xiaorou showed no fear at all.

"Concubine Jing is really eloquent!"

"Thank you Concubine Jing for the compliment, I dare not be a concubine!"

The two of them are like killers who meet their opponents at chess, exuding an evil spirit all over their bodies, killing Buddhas and ghosts when they meet Buddhas.

Lin Xiaorou was actually very nervous in her heart, but she never let herself show the slightest fear. In the end, Nangong Jing gave her a sneer smile, like an old and cunning female fox who gave her a look of understanding, and then took her own eyes. The people flung their sleeves and left.

Seeing the fiery red figure disappearing outside the door, Lin Xiaorou breathed a sigh of relief, her palms were actually sweaty when she touched it.

"It's hard for you to stand up for me, but this is useless." Concubine Hua's eyes were sad, and she sat in a daze, like a body without a soul.

In fact, Concubine Hua is also very pitiful. The person who wants to love can't love openly, and she has to hide in the deep palace and is often bullied. I am afraid that few women can bear such a life.

Putting aside all moral issues, Concubine Hua is just a poor person.

"You go back first."

"elder sister."

Concubine Hua had a headache and supported her forehead, she didn't want to look at anyone anymore, she was already ashamed enough today.

Lin Xiaorou knew that what she said to comfort her would only make things worse, so she took the rouge she had chosen and left, Huan'er also remained silent. After all, her status is the lowest here, and she can't and dare not intervene in anything. Today, Lin Xiaorou Dare to say that Concubine Jing has already shocked her.

Walking to the door, Lin Xiaorou was stopped by Concubine Hua again, turned around, Concubine Hua looked at her, then smiled slightly: "Concubine Jing, cherish everything you have."

Hearing these words, Lin Xiaorou was confused, after all, she was not the real Princess Jing, so she nodded and walked out of the palace.

Halfway through the journey, a feeling of gratitude flashed in her heart. She almost subconsciously opened the curtain of the car, and a carriage passed by her. The curtain was opened, and a man was also looking out the window. Eyes met, and quickly passed by.

It's him (her)!It was the Ice Cube Man, a person whose real name was unknown to this day.

At this time, Huo Qihan was rushing to deal with the matter of a bank that he had invested in in the capital. That bank was one of the four major banks in the capital. Stealing, it was his part that was stolen, while the others were left intact.

Bank accounts are very realistic. If all the capital injection money is used as capital for operation, then there will be a share of dividends at the end of the year, but if it is not used for operation and there is a loss, the capital injector will be responsible for it.

Although it is an unequal treaty, it is not up to you to choose to bully customers.

The person with the bank account had already reported to the official two days ago, but there was no sound after a few days, which was a bit strange, because according to the relationship behind the bank account, it would not be ignored by the government.

When they came to Tianfu Bank, the shopkeeper came out to receive Huo Qihan in person, and when he saw him, he expressed his apologies and regrets with various sighs.

The two stood in the bank. Huo Qihan raised his head and looked at the environment of the bank. It was a very closed room with no windows except for one door. There are special locks on it, which cannot be opened by ordinary keys, and there are people guarding the door of the secret room in shifts day and night.

"Who has the two keys?"

"One is in the hands of the boss, and the other is in my hands, so if you want to open the door here, both the boss and I must be there to open it!"

That being the case, the thief must obtain keys from two people at the same time, unless he is an outsider who is very familiar with the silver number, or is a buddy of the silver number at all.

"Who has been here these days?"

"Master Li from Yingtianfu came here. He is also one of the shareholders. He comes to check on Ku Yin regularly. Oh, by the way, he also came once after the theft, but he didn't find any clues."
