"Yes." At this time, Rongfu saw that he had searched the entire imperial garden but could not find anyone, and he was extremely panicked. After hearing what the princess said, he quickly went to Fengyang Pavilion to look for someone.

"Huanqing, don't worry, as long as you are in the palace, nothing will happen." Qi Wangshu looked at Liang Huanqing who looked anxious and worried, and quickly comforted him.

Liang Huanqing didn't know why. Normally Jiang Yi was naughty and noisy. Everything she saw when she entered the palace was new and it was common to look around. But today, for some unknown reason, she couldn't let go. She put her right hand on

On his heart, his eyes were wandering looking into the distance, and his heart was beating continuously.

"No, something must have happened to Jiang Yi. She usually makes trouble and won't wander around the palace." Liang Huanqing said with a depressed face, "That jade, jade is very important to her, but she will only follow the path she came from."

Find the way, she won't walk around."

"I know, I know everything you said, and we all know what Jiang Yi is like, but now that she is nowhere to be seen, she must be in the palace. We can just ask the maid who was working in the imperial garden at that time."

Qi Wangshu also said with a solemn expression.

Jiang Yi disappeared for no reason, and they were all worried. This was no other place, after all, it was a palace compound, and there were rules everywhere. If you offended a master unintentionally, you would be punished.

"Princess, we've brought them." Just now, Qi Wangshu sent someone to the House of Internal Affairs to fetch the maids who were on duty in the Imperial Garden this afternoon. Now they've been brought.

"My servants pay homage to Your Highness the Princess, Your Majesty the Princess." When a group of palace maids in pink palace attire saw them, they hurriedly knelt down and saluted.

These palace ladies do not have their own masters, so they work as servants in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. They can be called upon by anyone. Their status is lower than that of ordinary palace ladies. They will naturally kneel down when they see a serious master.

"Have you seen a petite girl this afternoon, wearing a turquoise skirt and a bun that looks like someone from outside the palace?" Qi Wangshu was much clearer than Liang Huanqing at this time. When someone brought him, he hurried up.

asked before.

"The slaves are on duty in the Imperial Garden today, pruning flowers and trees to disturb dead branches. There are countless people coming and going in the Imperial Garden, and there is really no time to look around and pay attention to these things." An older palace maid came forward and said.

Liang Huanqing watched them coming, his face full of anticipation, but when he heard her say these words, the anticipation in his eyes slowly dimmed.

When Qi Wangshu saw it, she felt really bad. She originally thought of asking Liang Huanqing to accompany her to the palace, but she didn't expect that it was indeed her fault that Jiang Yi got lost.

"Think about it again, it happened half an hour ago." Qi Wangshu asked again and again.

Several palace maids looked at each other, and after thinking for a moment, they all shook their heads and said, "I have never seen such a girl, and even if I did, I wouldn't have left any impression."

Qi Wangshu glanced at Liang Huanqing and fell silent.

Jiang Yi disappeared without any reason in the palace. This makes no sense.

"Your Highness, this slave girl just remembered something." A palace maid named Xiao Lian seemed to have thought of something and suddenly said.

"Say it quickly!" Qi Wangshu and Liang Huanqing's eyes lit up instantly and they quickly asked.

"This afternoon, Concubine Ming was walking in the Imperial Garden. The slaves all knelt down and did not dare to look up. Then they seemed to hear a noise..." When Xiaolian was about to continue, a maid behind her pushed her.

She gave her a slap and reminded her not to continue talking.

"Continue." After Qi Wangshu saw it, he glared at the palace maid behind her.

"Princess..." Xiaolian might be avoiding something, so she didn't dare to go on. After all, Concubine Ming's violent temper was already well-known, and besides, she was favored now, so the emperor would not blame her, even if he wanted to offend her.

Concubine Ming, I'm afraid she will die without a burial place.

"As the emperor's daughter, can't I protect you?" Qi Wangshu was a little angry. She never imagined that Lu Huiling, who was under her in the past, would now have someone who dared not speak in front of her because of taboos.

To tell the truth, "As long as you tell me, I will transfer you to Fengyang Pavilion and you will no longer be at your mercy."

This temptation is indeed great. The palace maids like them who are on duty in the palace are like children without parents. Anyone can bully them when they live outside. The palace maids who serve in the master's womb are obviously the same as them, but they have the same status.

But they can manipulate them at will and be arrogant in front of them. What is the reason for this? Isn't it because they have a master behind them who can support them?

As the saying goes, beating a dog depends on the owner. The eunuch who dumps the bucket in the palace of the beloved concubine is better than the maids like them who prune flowers and guard the palace. Anyone can step on them, but they are slaves with a master.

If the master wants to save face, she will never allow anyone to bully her servants in the palace.

Xiaolian hesitated for a while and looked left and right at the maids beside her. They all looked at her with solemn eyes. She thought about it again and again, and finally said it.

"Ming Fei seemed to be frightened. After questioning, she asked Aunt Xulan from Minghua Hall to drag the man back to Minghua Hall..." Xiaolian's eyes kept dodging, "Aunt Xulan

Let us not say anything casually, otherwise we will kill our slaves."

"So you have met Jiang Yi, right?" Liang Huanqing asked quickly.

"Princess, Master, this servant didn't recognize who Jiang Yi was, so he looked up and saw that the girl who bumped into Concubine Ming was the girl wearing a green skirt. At that time, she seemed to be looking for something and asked

Did the slave see it and said it was jade... jade or something like that?"

"Jade."

"Yes, it's jade." Xiaolian nodded, "At that time, the slave girl was pruning the flower branches. She came over from the banyan road and asked the slave girl if she had seen a piece of jade. She said that it was very important to her and was left by her mother.

Her slave was on duty and had no time to talk to her so much, so he asked her to look elsewhere. Then she heard Concubine Ming coming, and then... the girl was asked a few questions and was taken away.

Already."

"Have you ever heard what Jiang Yi said before he was taken away?" Liang Huanqing asked hurriedly.

"I really don't know this time. I have been on duty at the Rong Road and couldn't hear the people talking in the imperial garden. At that time, there was too much noise so I took a look from a distance." Xiaolian shook her head.

Qi Wangshu glanced at the palace maids who were kneeling on the ground with their heads bowed, and said: "Did any of you hear clearly what Concubine Ming asked Jiang Yi about at that time? Tell her immediately. I, the princess, will be rewarded as usual!"

Several palace ladies looked at each other one after another, as if they were considering which was more important, life or reward. On one side was Her Royal Highness Princess Jinzhi Yuye, and on the other was the newly promoted Concubine Ming, the emperor's favorite, neither of which they could offend.

.

Xiaolian had already said so much. In order to reward her, Xiao Tao, the palace maid who was on duty in the imperial garden, gritted her teeth and stamped her feet and said, "Princess, I know this."

"Say it quickly!" Qi Wangshuben was still looking at them with a sad face, feeling sad about her current situation. Could it be that a majestic princess of the Celestial Dynasty and a royal nobleman was not more important than a concubine in the harem?

But it is indeed the case. If another concubine had taken Jiang Yi away, Qi Wangshu would have mobilized a large number of people to come to ask for him, but now that person happened to be Lu Huiling, his father's new favorite, and what was even more terrifying was that she looked so tall.

She looked very much like Empress Mingxian. That was a taboo that no one in the harem dared to touch. Qi Wangshu didn't dare to come rashly until he figured out the cause of the matter.

"Today, Concubine Ming was walking in the Imperial Garden. We and the maids on duty all bowed their heads and knelt down. Suddenly, a girl ran out of nowhere. As if she had not seen Concubine Ming, she lowered her head and was looking for something in the flowers. She was

Aunt Xu Lan found out and called over." Xiao Tao swallowed and looked up at Qi Wangshu and Liang Huanqing.

"Aunt Xu Lan asked her why she was not polite when she saw Concubine Ming, but the girl was obviously not a maid on duty in the palace. She didn't recognize her as Concubine Ming at all. She only called her Miss Lu, presumably because she knew Concubine Ming's mother's house.

Then Concubine Ming asked her whose maid she was, and the girl said she was from Prince Jing's Mansion and accompanied the concubine and her entourage into the palace.

Concubine Ming... As soon as Concubine Ming heard the name of the princess, she raised her hand and asked Aunt Xulan to send someone to take her away. She said that Miss Jiang Yi had collided with her and she wanted to teach the princess a lesson."

After Xiaotao hesitated to say yes, she kowtowed to Liang Huanqing and said, "Princess, please forgive me. Concubine Ming has told the slaves not to make any announcement, so she hid it from the beginning."

Qi Wangshu frowned and looked at Liang Huanqing solemnly, and said: "Why don't I ask my mother and concubine to handle this matter? After all, Jiang Yi didn't make any big mistake, he just didn't salute in time. Besides, Jiang Yi didn't make any big mistake at that time."

When we are looking for jade, it is normal for us not to see it in time, my mother-in-law will help us."

She was too worried that Liang Huanqing would be impulsive, because she knew that Liang Huanqing was very protective of his shortcomings.

Lu Huiling's behavior was obviously a revenge against Liang Huanqing. He did it because he knew that Jiang Yi was close to Liang Huanqing.

Let me tell Qi Wangshu, Lu Huiling usually wouldn't come to the Imperial Garden to get into trouble because Mei Guifei's Yichun Palace is near the Imperial Garden. Today, she came here specially because she heard that Liang Huanqing also entered the palace.

Came here specifically to find trouble.

But Liang Huanqing couldn't help it. She had long thought that one day she would have a conflict with Lu Huiling, but she didn't expect that Lu Huiling would be so despicable that he would attack the people around her.

If she had brought Yue Bai here today, according to Lu Huiling's deep hatred for Liang Huanqing, she would have killed Yue Bai on the spot. But now Jiang Yi was brought back to Minghua Hall by her, and her life and death were uncertain.

She knew what Lu Huiling could do if he took her away.
