Xiaohui hurriedly lowered her head and bowed and replied: "To tell you what the prince is saying, the bird's nest slave has never passed through other people's hands since she took it from the dining room."
As soon as these words came out, Wanyue and Yinqi were stunned for a moment. It seemed that the problem came from the people in the dining room.
The two then turned their attention to the steward and the three waiters in the dining room. They were stared at by the two masters in a daze, wondering what happened to the bird's nest yesterday.
The steward of the kitchen kept frowning. He was very careful with the meals of the masters in the house, for fear of following in the footsteps of the previous steward of the kitchen. Unexpectedly, something happened, but he didn't know who had the intention.
Someone plotted the disaster on their dining room again.
After the air was cold and silent for a moment, Yinqi asked with a stern face: "Those of you in the dining room should think carefully about who had come into contact with the bird's nest last night, and whether any of them acted suspiciously!"
Several people in the dining room were shocked. After thinking deeply, they found out that the suspicious person was probably the maidservant who came to take the meal. They were all the confidants in the dining room and could not possibly murder the prince.
The matter of heirs.
One of the waiters hesitated and replied: "As far as the prince is concerned, there is nothing suspicious about the servants in the dining room. The only suspicious thing is probably that the girls who came to get the meal stayed in the dining room yesterday.
It’s taking a little longer than usual.”
"Oh!" Yinqi wanted to raise his hand and slam the table, but there was no table next to him, and Wanyue was the only one sitting next to him.
But Wanyue didn't say anything. After all, her personal maid Ying'er was still standing below, so she had no choice but to pretend as if nothing had happened.
After Yinqi said oh, no one below responded. Yinqi sighed in his heart. This matter seemed to be pushed to the maids who were collecting meals from all sides. This made Yinqi feel a little mixed. It looked really
Some people are dissatisfied with the children in Yue'er and Rui'er's wombs.
Yinqi then asked sternly: "Tell me, who are the people who stayed in the dining room longer than usual when taking meals yesterday?"
Several people in the dining room looked at each other and then had different opinions, but there was no mention of Ying'er and Jin Suxin's personal maid Shuang'er in their words.
Ying'er breathed a sigh of relief. After listening to the words of the people in the dining room, Wanyue came closer to Yinqi and whispered: "Your Majesty, since Ying'er is no longer suspected, why not let her go back to Xinuang Pavilion first."
As a result, Yinqi waved his hand towards Wanyue: "Don't worry, let her stay here for a while. It won't be too late to go back after this matter is over."
Seeing Yinqi's appearance, Wanyue still didn't understand anything, but she was still a little shocked. It seemed that the prince still had some grudges about Tong Jiarui'er.
Wanyue thought in her heart and did not reply to Yinqi's words. After Yinqi coughed, she turned to look at Butler Yan next to her: "You go and take over the Ma Jia family from Fujin and the other five nobles from Dongnuan Pavilion."
Call the maids."
Butler Yan was really busy this morning. He ran back and forth between the east and west courtyards several times. When he heard what Yinqi said, Butler Yan quickly responded: "Yes, I will do it now!"
Soon Ma Jiashi of Fujin came in person with her personal maids. When she saw Wanyue, Ma Jiayunzhao was shocked. He also saw the five distinguished maids of Dongnuan Pavilion standing in the small courtyard of the east wing, and
Fujin's personal maid Ying'er and several waiters from the dining room were also there.
Ma Jiayunzhao bowed to Yinqi and Wanyue and said, "I give my body to the prince, and I wish you the best of luck!"
Yinqi raised his hand towards her slightly, and then asked Butler Yan to move a stool for her to sit on. The other five princesses from Dongnuan Pavilion also followed and stood behind Wanyue.
Wanyue squinted her eyes and looked at the people standing below. The expressions on each face were different, but most of them looked confused. However, Zhang Jiazhuyue looked very calm. Wanyue looked her up and down.
Fan, I felt a little worried. This piece of Jiazhuyue and Tong Jiarui'er have nothing to do with each other. She shouldn't need to harm Tong Jiarui'er, right?
Although Wanyue was confused, she still turned to Yinqi with a normal expression and said: "Your Majesty, everyone is here, you should ask the question!"
Yinqi nodded, looked at the people kneeling in a row below, and after a moment of silence, he began to ask questions.
"What were you doing when you were getting food yesterday?"
Except for Ma Jia Yunzhao's personal maid who was a little confused, several other maids in Dongnuan Pavilion were also in a daze and didn't understand what was going on. After all, their masters were also some distance away from Tong Gege's house, although they were all in the east courtyard.
, but their masters were all in Dong Nuan Pavilion, but Tong Gege was in the east wing, and everyone couldn't hear the movements in Tong Gege's room very clearly.
But looking at it like this, it seems that Tong Gege has been shouting in the room and talking about the child. It seems that she has had a miscarriage. Who harmed Tong Gege? Everyone is also suspicious of each other. I don’t know.
Whoever did it, no one dared to speak first.
Seeing that no one answered, Yinqi felt quite annoyed. These servants were so silent. Could it be that they wanted him to take care of them!
Yinqi's face suddenly turned cold, and he shouted at several people: "Don't you know what you did when you were taking meals? If no one replies, each of you will be scolded twenty times!"
When everyone heard this, they felt panicked. Yuxia ignored Wu Yayunhui's instructions and took the lead in speaking back: "Returning to your lord, Fujin, when I went to the dining room to get food yesterday, I had a chat with Miss Ying'er from Xinan Pavilion.
The sentence came back."
Wu Yayunhui frowned upon hearing this, wondering when Yuxia, a cheap maid, had gotten attached to Ying'er from Xinan Pavilion, but she did not ask, but looked at Yuxia with a sad face.
Ying'er nodded towards Wanyue and Yinqi, and then responded: "It is indeed as Sister Yuxia said, we each received our meals in the dining room and left."
The remaining maids held their own opinions, but everyone seemed to have someone to testify. When it was Zhang Jiazhuyue's turn, she hesitated for a moment and then said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, when you take the meal, you are just a waiter in the same dining room.
After chatting for a few words about the food prepared for the master, I didn’t ask anything else."
Judging from Wanyue's experience, Zhang Jiazhuyue was obviously lying. When she spoke just now, her eyes unconsciously looked to the right, which was obviously a reaction to lying.
But Yinqi was confused, as if he had fallen into a dead end again. The kitchen manager put the responsibility on the maids who took the meals. None of the maids seemed suspicious. Yinqi suddenly felt that one was the head and the other was the big one.
.
The truth of this matter must be found out no matter what, not to give an explanation to Tong Jiaruier, but to prevent vicious people from causing trouble in the backyard. Yinqi raised his hand to hold his forehead, hesitated for a moment, and decided to have someone check
Check the houses of the people in the courtyard to see if there is anything suspicious in them.
"Let people search the houses of these maids and servants. Don't miss any corner!" Yinqi gave another instruction to Butler Yan.
Butler Yan's mouth twitched, and after replying, he went to the front yard and called the guards to check them one by one.
