Before Fatty Wang could defend himself, Daner directly picked up the ginseng on the ground.
"Mother, this is ginseng!"
Fatty Wang quickly defended: "This... empress... this is the king..."
But before he could finish his words, Li Zhiyi interrupted him with an evil smile on his lips.
Because when she saw this ginseng, Li Zhiyi had already made up her mind.
"What are you talking about? I know what you are talking about!"
"This is the prince's ginseng, right? The ginseng is kept in the treasure house. How can ordinary servants dare to take such a precious medicine? I didn't expect that it was stolen by you like this!"
steal!
Li Zhiyi hit the nail on the head and directly defined the core of the matter as stealing!
Stealing means breaking the law, which means that Fatty Wang in front of you is a sinner.
Fatty Wang continued to prepare to speak, but was interrupted again by Li Zhiyi.
"You don't have to explain. You want to make ginseng soup for the prince, right? You don't have to defend yourself like this. I have already seen it. You people in the dining room are sneaky, especially since you started talking to me.
After marrying that woman Qian Ruoyu, your quality is even lower!"
"Don't think that I don't know what you are doing. Is it because you opened the door so late just to hide these things?"
Li Zhiyi didn't listen at all. She even ordered after looking at the men and women in the other dining rooms.
"Take out all the things you have hidden in your sleeves. You really don't know how to live or die. You even dare to steal the prince's things!"
At this time, Qian Ruoyu was behind the haystack next to Li Zhiyi and Qian Ruoyu. After seeing this scene, Qian Ruoyu was naturally a little happy.
It seemed that what he said was right, Li Zhiyi would only confuse right and wrong, and in order for Li Zhiyi to continue this farce, Qian Ruoyu hinted to everyone to hand over what they had on hand.
This time Qian Ruoyu continued to prepare to teach Li Zhiyi a lesson.
Although Li Zhiyi had been taught a lesson last time, the effect was obviously not that obvious. This time Li Zhiyi actually thought that she was not here and came to the dining room to give orders again.
The servants can't do anything, but Qian Ruoyu can't do anything herself?
And under Qian Ruoyu's hint, everyone naturally immediately took out all the things hidden in their hands.
Seeing this series of rouge gouache and these precious Chinese herbal medicines made Li Zhiyi seem a little mad.
"you……"
She said incredulously.
"It's okay if one or two people are thieves. I didn't expect that all the people in our palace are thieves. Everyone in the entire dining room is stealing things!"
Li Zhiyi came to Zhang Ma and Xiao Hong and snatched the rouge and gouache from Zhang Ma and Xiao Hong's hands.
She just touched it a little and found out that the price of these rouge and gouache was quite high, and she immediately said angrily.
"It seems that these should also be in the palace!"
"Does it mean that even my wife's Zhiyi Pavilion has been stolen by you?"
Then she handed the rouge and gouache box to Dan'er beside her, "Take a closer look to see if this is stored in our Zhiyi Pavilion and see if it was really stolen by them!"
Dan'er just glanced at it twice and immediately said as if the evidence was solid.
"Empress, you are right!"
"These two boxes are indeed from our Zhiyi Pavilion. They actually went to our Zhiyi Pavilion to steal things. It is really an unforgivable crime!"
Hearing what they said, Qian Ruoyu, who was next to the haystack, almost laughed.
Qian Ruoyu also didn't expect that the master and the servant would sing in harmony like this and really make things worse.
But Qian Ruoyu didn't care. It was impossible for Li Zhiyi to leave the dining room so easily today.
Teaching Li Zhiyi a lesson was just Qian Ruoyu's pleasure, and precisely because of this, Qian Ruoyu had no intention of exposing Li Zhiyi so soon.
Zhang Ma, Xiao Hong and others had no way to defend themselves. After all, they couldn't even get in a word, so they had no choice but to let Li Zhiyi frame them up.
Li Zhiyi said still arrogantly.
"Haha, what's wrong? You are speechless after being told the truth by me, right?"
"Do you want to explain yourself, or should I tell the prince now and let him punish you!"
But everyone had received the reward from Qian Ruoyu, so naturally they were not worried that they would be punished by the prince.
However, Xiaohong seemed to have seen through Qian Ruoyu's trick, and immediately came out and cooperated.
"This...these things are ours, we didn't steal them!"
"Concubine, if you don't believe it, you can investigate it carefully. We will never steal your things, Concubine!"
Xiaohong's mouthful of concubines made Li Zhiyi even more angry.
Although Li Zhiyi is indeed a side concubine, Li Zhiyi has been called the main concubine since before Qian Ruoyu was married.
Now that Qian Ruoyu has married, she has completely become a second-rate concubine. How can she be happy?
It was also when he heard the words "concubine" that made Li Zhiyi feel crazy.
Li Zhiyi said directly.
"If the evidence is solid, do we still need to investigate?"
"It seems that none of you are willing to admit your crimes, and the prince is not in the palace now, so I have to find someone else to come over."
"Dan'er, go and call the governor of Jingzhao and ask him to bring more people. Just tell him that a large-scale gang case has occurred. A bunch of people worked together to steal the property of the prince and me!"
Dan'er nodded immediately after hearing this.
But before she could walk out, Xiaohong stopped her.
"Concubine, since you said we stole it, where is the evidence? If there is no evidence, what should we do?"
Wang Po also walked out quickly, "Concubine, according to the laws of the dynasty, anyone who makes false accusations will be punished with thirty sticks!"
Li Zhiyi was really shocked this time.
Because before, these servants would not dare to talk to her in this tone.
Every servant talks to me respectfully, and all these changes are due to Qian Ruoyu!
That's why she said angrily.
"You...are you servants preparing to rebel?"
"You don't have to listen to what I say, and you still talk to me like this. You are really guilty of the following, and you should all be arrested in the Yamen..."
But before she could finish speaking, Xiaohong said something else that made her even more angry.
"Concubine, you haven't said what to do yet? Could it be that you framed us by then and left like nothing happened?"
"You seem to have done this kind of thing more than once, right?"
