Reborn, the daughter of the Marquisate went crazy

The beautiful jade was not found on Xie Qingli. She looked at Princess Roujia with a smile, waiting for her to fulfill the bet.

All the guests stretched their necks, secretly wondering whether Princess Roujia would really kowtow and apologize to Miss Xie.

Princess Roujia's head buzzed, her mind went blank, and a voice kept echoing in her heart: How is this possible? How is this possible?!

The princess stood up suddenly, her fingers trembling slightly, her eyes blazing with anger as she sternly asked, "Are you sure you've checked everything thoroughly?"

Her voice was so high and sharp that it frightened the maids.

The leading maid said in a trembling voice, "Reporting to Her Royal Highness, the Princess, we have checked everything inside and out, and we certainly haven't found anything. The maids of Her Royal Highness Princess Zhong and Princess Fu'an can testify to this!"

Hubo and Nong Ying hurriedly knelt and bowed, saying in unison, "This servant can testify. Your Highness, please understand!"

The eldest princess's breathing became rapid and heavy, like an angry beast. She had lived a life of luxury for most of her life, but this was the first time she was being roasted on the fire like this, and the other party was just a young country girl!

She looked at Xie Qingli with burning eyes. Roujia must not fulfill this bet today, otherwise how will they gain a foothold in Shengjing City in the future?

The eldest princess turned to look at Roujia, her mind rapidly thinking about how to break the contract.

Princess Roujia was so frightened that her face turned pale and her eyelids twitched wildly. Under the scrutiny of everyone, she felt her vision begin to go dark, and then like a kite with a broken string, she fell down with a "bang".

"Roujia..." The eldest princess let out a shrill scream. She ran over and hugged Princess Roujia, calling out twice, but Princess Roujia did not respond.

She shouted around in panic, "Hurry up!"

The maids rushed forward and quickly lifted Princess Roujia up.

The eldest princess took two steps out in a disorderly manner, then suddenly stopped and turned to the wife of Prince Zhong and said, "Zhen'er..."

Princess Zhong looked anxious and interrupted softly, "Go quickly, sister. I'm here, don't worry!"

The eldest princess nodded and quickly chased after him.

But in a moment, the group of Hu girls came onto the stage gracefully and started dancing passionately.

But the guests were no longer interested in watching. They all whispered to each other, secretly speculating that Princess Roujia must have been feigning unconsciousness to avoid the bet. They looked at Xie Qingli with some sympathy. In this battle with the eldest princess and her daughter, Miss Xie was destined to be the loser!

Before the Hu Ji girls finished their dance and the guests' chatter threatened to drown out the music, the eldest princess hurried back. The music abruptly stopped, and the guests hurriedly shut their mouths.

The eldest princess looked around and said calmly, "Roujia is not feeling well. The imperial physician has advised her to rest. Therefore, she will stay at home for the time being and will not attend any of your banquets."

She turned to look at Xie Qingli and said lightly: "Miss Xie, Roujia is very sorry that she cannot fulfill your bet. Let's just call it a day!" She said sorry, but her tone was stiff and there was no sincerity in it.

The eldest princess looked around at the guests with different expressions. She clapped her hands lightly, and another team of maids came into the hall carrying trays. Except for the first tray which contained the glazed lotus lamp, the rest of the trays were filled with glittering gold and silver jewels.

She said in a cold voice, "To show your sincerity, please accept this glass lotus lamp and these treasures, Miss Xie."

Xie Qingli secretly glanced at the gold, silver, and jewelry. They looked expensive, but in reality, they were just for show. But she also knew that the princess would never let Princess Roujia fulfill the bet today. If she refused, the princess would definitely scold her for being unreasonable!

She slowly knelt down and said respectfully, "Thank you, Her Royal Highness, the Princess, for the reward!" Everyone looked at Xie Qingli with a hint of sympathy.

The princess waved Xie Qingli away and said calmly, "The piece of jade that Roujia lost was given to me by the late emperor when I was young. It is extremely precious to me, and I must find it back today!"

The guests in the banquet hall couldn't help but look sideways. Wasn't it enough for the princess to search Miss Xie? She also wanted to search everyone? It was ridiculous!

The princess looked coldly at the girls of the Xie family. Roujia had indeed put the jade on Xie Qingli. If Xie Qingli didn't have it, it must be on other girls of the Xie family. She said coldly, "Since Roujia has only been to the young ladies of Jing'an Marquis' Mansion and it's not on Miss Xie, let's start with the other girls!"

Xie Qingyao was originally in a good mood watching Princess Roujia making things difficult for Xie Qingli, and she wanted to applaud Princess Roujia in her heart, but now they were suddenly investigated. Although the jade was not with her, it was shameful for her to be investigated in public, or for her concubine sister to be found to have stolen the imperial gift. She slightly regretted that she had just framed Xie Qingman.

Xie Qingyao and the other four stood up hurriedly and walked slowly towards the center.

Xie Qingli sat behind the desk, looking at the backs of the four people calmly, secretly wondering whether Xie Qingyao had discovered the jade in her arms.

Suddenly, she noticed a faint light flashing on the hem of Xie Qingman's skirt. She looked closely and found that a golden object on the hem of Xie Qingman's skirt appeared and disappeared with her steps.

Xie Qingli frowned slightly. Princess Roujia's jade was indeed wrapped in gold, and a light hook was made of gold to hang it from her necklace. Could it be that the jade was caught on the hem of Xie Qingman's skirt?

Xie Qingli stared at Xie Qingman's back, and after a moment, she was sure that it was indeed the beautiful jade that belonged to Princess Roujia. Her eyes turned slightly colder, and she could not help but feel a little anxious. She must have framed Xie Qingyao again.

But the scene of Xie Qingman persuading her to drink the poisoned wine suddenly emerged in her mind. Xie Qingman knew that there was something fishy about the wine, but insisted on persuading her to drink it. Her heart was despicable!

Xie Qingli immediately gave up the idea of ​​helping Xie Qingman. As for whether the reputation of the Marquis' Mansion would be damaged, it didn't matter to her. She would definitely take her mother away from the Marquis' Mansion in the future. She didn't care whether the Marquis' Mansion was good or bad. In fact, the worse the Marquis' Mansion was, the better!

She slowly sat back and watched the show quietly!

Xie Qingyao and the other four stood in the middle of the banquet hall and knelt down before the eldest princess. Before they could speak, a noble lady suddenly pointed behind them and shouted, "Look, what's that?"

Everyone's eyes were focused behind the four people, where they saw a beautiful jade wrapped in gold hanging on the skirt of one of the girls.

The four of them looked back at the same time, and Xie Qingman finally saw what was hanging on her skirt. She was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she reached out to grab it with trembling hands...
