Rebirth of the group's pet poisonous concubine, the violent and cold king is too tempting
Chapter 66 The thief shouts to catch the thief
If he could see clearly this time whether the people around him were human or ghost, she could help him avoid the pain of his family being wiped out in his previous life. If he still refused to change his ways, then there was nothing she could do.
"What are you guys waiting for? Go and take him away!" Yuan Bingyan's face was gloomy, and she shouted angrily at the guards beside her.
"Yes!" Just as they were about to go over, they were blocked by the people brought by Jiang Zhongming.
Jiang Zhongming glanced at Yuan Bingyan, and then slowly said,
"Miss Yuan doesn't seem to take me seriously! I caught this little thief. If Miss Yuan wants to take him away, shouldn't she have informed me? I've been sitting here for so long, could it be that Miss Yuan didn't see me?"
Yuan Bingyan looked at Jiang Zhongming's serious expression and was shocked. She didn't know Kong Xiuran, but she was familiar with Jiang Zhongming. Thinking of how rude she had been just now, Yuan Bingyan couldn't help but feel guilty. Then she looked at Jiang Zhongming and bowed respectfully.
"Meet Uncle Jiang!"
"Miss Yuan, you are too polite. I am just a rough man. How can I let Miss Yuan call me uncle? If the Imperial Concubine blames me, I cannot bear the consequences!"
Jiang Zhongming looked at Yuan Bingyan's ashen face and his expression turned even darker. Don't think that he didn't know because he was not in Kyoto. She often made trouble for Yu'er. Although he couldn't fight with a child, when he thought about his daughter being targeted by her, Jiang Zhongming couldn't help but feel furious.
Yuan Bingyan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. They didn't expect that such a great general would act so stingy. However, they also knew that her father often discussed with her aunt. Now was a critical period. For these generals, especially those who held such great military power, they could only build relationships with them and not make enemies with them.
Naturally, she didn't dare to act on her own. Soon, Yuan Bingyan looked at Jiang Zhongming with a smile on her face and said:
"General Jiang is right. It was Bingyan who overstepped her bounds. However, this thief is a thief who stole my things. General Jiang, please hand her over to Bingyan for handling!"
Jiang Zhongming snorted coldly, then looked at Yuan Bingyan and said:
"Miss Yuan's request, I'm afraid I can't agree to it. I don't know what his purpose is for suddenly appearing in Hefengquan. The relationship with Beilin Country is currently tense. Who knows if he is a spy sent by another country?
You must know that most of those who can come to Yanhua Villa are royal relatives and nobles. If he has some conspiracy behind him, wouldn't it be like letting a tiger back into the mountain? This matter, the general will naturally report to His Majesty and make sure to thoroughly investigate his purpose! "
"No, Bingyan doesn't think it will be that troublesome. It's just a petty thief who accidentally broke in here without knowing the consequences. It's not as serious as General Jiang said. Bingyan only lost a small thing. Mobilizing such a large force might disturb His Majesty's tranquility!"
Yuan Bingyan said uneasily. After all, if they continued to investigate, they would inevitably find her. The right thing to do now was to cut the Gordian knot.
"Don't worry, Miss Yuan. With this general here, I will definitely get to the bottom of this matter," Jiang Zhongming said coldly. There were many doubts in this matter. Seeing that Yuan Bingyan looked so guilty, the possibility of the thief crying "stop thief" could not be ruled out.
Yuan Bingyan's heart tightened when she saw that Jiang Zhongming was not moved by her words. If he found out, her actions would be exposed without a doubt. Thinking of the consequences, the smile on Yuan Bingyan's face froze instantly. She thought about a lot of things in her mind, trying to find a foolproof plan, but there was no way to get out of it unscathed. Now she could only take it one step at a time.
Seeing Xiao Wanning walking towards them, Jiang Shuyu's eyes turned slightly. Concubine Yuan had been praising Yuan Bingyan in Xiao Wanning's ear for being well-educated, gentle and considerate. Although Xiao Wanning didn't say it, she was not convinced in her heart, and naturally she was not in harmony with Yuan Bingyan.
The two of them were secretly competing with each other. In her previous life, she didn't understand this, so she suffered a lot when she was caught between them. Now she can make good use of this, and there will definitely be unexpected results.
When Xiao Wanning came closer, Jiang Shuyu glanced at the scattered wooden boxes beside her. A hint of understanding flashed in her eyes, and then she looked at Yuan Bingyan in surprise and said:
"No wonder I heard others say that the Yongchang Marquis' Mansion was as wealthy as a nation. Now that I've seen it with my own eyes, the rumors are indeed true. It's just a small toy, but it needs a golden nanmu box to match it. Who knows how rare the things inside are! I wonder if Miss Yuan could open it and let us see it!"
"They are just some ordinary things, how can they catch your attention..."
Yuan Bingyan regretted it very much at this moment. She shouldn't have taken out the set of Double Phoenix Holding Pearls and Gold Jade Hairpin to gamble. Seeing that the box on the ground had been broken, Yuan Bingyan's heart seemed to be bleeding.
You have to know that she has never worn it since Concubine Yuan gave it to her, and now it has fallen to the ground and it is sure that it will not be intact. Not only did she lose her favorite jewelry, but Jiang Shuyu was also safe and sound. How could she be willing to accept this?
"This princess wants to see what it is that makes you so obsessed with it. Someone, bring it to me!"
Xiao Wanning came to Yuan Bingyan and saw the regret in her eyes, and she suddenly became curious.
"Princess……"
Yuan Bingyan was about to speak when she saw Xiao Wanning slowly opening the box. Seeing Xiao Wanning's face change instantly, Yuan Bingyan's heart seemed to fall to the bottom.
"How come you have this?"
Seeing that the precious jade Bu Yao with twin phoenixes holding pearls that she had been thinking about was broken into pieces, the anger in Xiao Wanning's eyes seemed to burst out.
As far as she knew, this golden jade hairpin with double phoenixes holding pearls was a gift from the Empress Dowager to her mother. She had asked for it several times, but her mother had not given it to her. Now that she saw it here, it was not difficult to tell that her mother must have given it to Yuan Bingyan.
But now it has been completely ruined. Thinking of the injustice she had suffered since she was a child, Xiao Wanning's eyes were slightly red. She was obviously a princess of a country, but her mother's love for her was not as much as that for Yuan Bingyan. Take this gold and jade hairpin for example, she was asked to give it to Yuan Bingyan.
Looking at the broken hairpin in the box, Xiao Wanning touched it gently with her hand. The sharp edge instantly cut Xiao Wanning's finger, and blood immediately gushed out. Xiao Wanning gently touched the wound, with a cold look in her eyes. She looked at Yuan Bingyan coldly and said:
"Since you don't cherish this thing, I will take it back to my mother myself."
As the saying goes, a broken mirror cannot be mended. At this time, Xiao Wanning was very disappointed with Concubine Yuan. She wanted to see if her mother would blame her if she knew that the thing she gave to Yuan Bingyan was easily destroyed.
