I married the wrong man, and I sent him and his whole family to be executed.

Only each other could hear their conversation, so Lu Xiaoting did not hide it at all: "Yes, I did it on purpose. If your jade bracelet is found later, let's see what you will do!"

"You did it." Yu Wangfei said affirmatively.

Since Lu Xiaoting was so sure, she could confirm that the loss of valuables in the palace was caused by Lu Xiaoting and Chu Aotian. They actually dared to exchange the jewelry and sell them in the ghost market. How bold.

"We did it, but do you have any evidence? Without evidence it's a false accusation." Lu Xiaoting smiled softly, "Princess Pingle, it's your turn."

Feng Zhao walked out from behind the curtain, and Yu Wangfei walked in with a fearless attitude, followed by several maids.

In less than a cup of tea, the maids lifted the curtain. Lu Xiaoting looked at Yu Wangfei with anticipation for a good show, waiting for the maids' report.

"Your Majesty, it has not been found on the princess." The maids reported.

"What!" Lu Xiaoting was shocked.

The imperial concubine glanced at her unhappily. As the host, she hadn't even spoken a word yet, but Lu Xiaoting was shouting like that. She had no manners at all. Fortunately, she didn't let Chu Fei marry her as the prince's consort before.

"Impossible, how could there be nothing?" Lu Xiaoting stared at Yu Wangfei in disbelief.

"What's wrong with you, sister? Do you want the jade bracelet to be on me?" Yu Wangfei smiled slyly and deliberately said jokingly, "Or did you steal the jade bracelet and put it on me?"

"What did you say?" Lu Xiaoting was puzzled. "Don't frame a good person."

Why was the jade bracelet gone? It was clearly bought by Yu Wangfei at the ghost market. When she entered the palace, she saw with her own eyes that Yu Wangfei put the bracelet around his waist. How could it be gone!

Without waiting for Lu Xiaoting to react, Yu Wangfei walked up to her and pushed her into the curtain: "Sister, it's your turn to be checked."

Before the curtain was dropped, the nanny found the jade bracelet on Lu Xiaoting's body.

"Your Majesty, we've found the jade bracelet." The nanny took out the bracelet and presented it to the imperial concubine.

"Yes, this is my bracelet." The imperial concubine was delighted.

I didn't expect it happened to Lu Xiaoting. She is so bold that she even dares to cry "stop thief"!

"It's not me, this is not mine, it's you, you put it on me on purpose." Lu Xiaoting ran out from the curtain, staring at Yu Wangfei, and even wanted to attack Yu Wangfei, but Yu Wangfei dodged her.

Because Lu Xiaoting lost her balance, she fell to the ground.

Just now when the palace maid went to get the jade bracelet, Yu Wangfei realized that she had fallen into a trap, so she secretly handed the jade bracelet around her waist to Feng Zhao, asking Feng Zhao to help her deal with it.

She also didn't expect that Feng Zhao would actually put the jade bracelet directly on Lu Xiaoting.

commendable.

"I actually found a jade bracelet on you. Could it be that you thought the imperial concubine's bracelet was pretty and wanted to take it for yourself?" Yu Wangfei emphasized his tone so that everyone present could hear the news.

"It was you who framed me. It's all your fault. The jade bracelet was clearly on you, and you put it on me!" Lu Xiaoting stared at Yu Wangfei with bloodshot eyes, wishing she could tear him to pieces in the next second.

It was all her fault for being careless. She didn't even notice the jade bracelet on her body.

"The thief is crying thief." The women said a few words.

"She obviously stole it herself, but she insisted on accusing us."

"This is the girl who grew up in Xizhou. She has no education at all. She seems to be a wild girl who has never read any books. Such a person is going to marry the eldest prince. It is really a shame for the royal family."

The female family members despised Lu Xiaoting very much. After all, in the capital, a woman's reputation is the most important. However, Lu Xiaoting actually asked for a body examination on the spot, suspecting that they had stolen the jade bracelet.

You know, this kind of suspicion is extremely humiliating for the female members of the family. Now, the person who stole the thing is obviously Lu Xiaoting, but she is crying thief. It's really disgusting.

"It was Yu Wangfei who stole it, not me!" Lu Xiaoting defended.

"Do you have any evidence?" Yu Wangfei raised an eyebrow and asked, "The jade bracelet was clearly found on you."

Lu Xiaoting had no way to defend herself and could only keep protesting her injustice.

The imperial concubine didn't want her to continue to bother about it, so she ordered the nanny to take the person to the Dali Temple and let Liu Ruchu handle the matter according to the rules and not let her go easily.

Because of this incident, the imperial concubine no longer had the idea of ​​continuing to celebrate her birthday. After saying a few polite words, she asked the palace maid to send everyone away. She wanted to be alone.

Today's birthday was the most uncomfortable one she had ever had.

In previous years, the emperor would come to accompany her, but the emperor has been unwell these days and has been recuperating in the imperial study with old man Mo Ying, so she cannot force the emperor to come.

Feng Zhao saw that she was unhappy, so he took the initiative to go to the imperial kitchen and make a bowl of longevity noodles and brought it to the imperial concubine.

"Why haven't you left yet?" The imperial concubine lay on the couch, rubbing her forehead irritably.

Seeing this, Feng Zhao immediately stepped forward to help the imperial concubine with a massage.

Yu Wangfei stood aside, wanting to explain clearly to the imperial concubine the matter of the valuables in the palace being replaced, otherwise a farce like tonight would happen again.

"Your Majesty." Yu Wangfei organized her words, "Many treasures in the palace have been replaced..."

Without waiting for Yu Wangfei to finish, the imperial concubine slowly opened her eyes and then sighed, "I know that Chu Fei told me about this, so was the jade bracelet also swapped today?"

"Yes." Yu Wangfei replied, "I found the real jade bracelet in the ghost market. Someone exchanged the treasures in the palace and sold them in the ghost market. I suspect this person is related to Lu Xiaoting."

Just from her performance today, the imperial concubine could tell that Lu Xiaoting was involved in the swap. The reason why she was sent to the Dali Temple was to allow Liu Ruchu to investigate the case and find the real culprit behind it.

After all, Lu Xiaoting is stupid. She can only be a pawn of the person behind the scenes. It is absolutely impossible for her to plan the entire exchange.

"I will ask someone to go and take inventory to see what has been lost." The imperial concubine stood up, and when she saw the bowl of longevity noodles in front of her, her originally irritable mood became moved.

"This is the longevity noodles made by Lord Feng." Yu Wangfei took the opportunity to say.

"Hmm." The imperial concubine responded casually, then picked up her chopsticks and started eating.

In fact, she didn't hate Feng Zhao, she just hated that Feng Zhao couldn't give her a grandson.

After talking clearly with the imperial concubine, Yu Wangfei left the palace first. She needed to tell Chu Yuheng everything that happened tonight without missing a word, so that he could better find out Aotian's intentions.

As a prince, his daily expenses are not much, so why is Chu Aotian so short of money?

It was already midnight when Yu Wangfei returned home.

Although it was midnight, the mansion was different from usual. Lights were on everywhere and the servants were busy working non-stop, as if something big had happened.

Until Yu Wangfei saw Yunhua in the corridor.

Why is she here so late?

"Yunhua?" Yu Wangfei called out.
