A concubine's daughter is reborn and I want to enter the palace!

When Xiao Kangzi saw the night pearl, his head felt buzzing!

"What's going on? Didn't I get this thing stuck in the shiny fabric? How come it came back on its own?" Xiao Kangzi was shocked

Before I had time to think too much, I heard the door creaking and being pushed open.

When Xiao Kangzi heard the door open, he was frightened and quickly wrapped the cloth bag.

He quickly turned around and asked, "Who are you, what are you doing here..."

At this time, a group of guards came in large numbers.

"We are ordered to thoroughly investigate the case of the lost Night Pearl. You should pack up now and follow us immediately."

Xiao Kangzi was shocked after hearing this! Wasn't this matter handled by Concubine Qing? She even invited Concubine Ru from her own palace. With Concubine Ru around, she shouldn't let anyone take her away. What went wrong?

"Ah, I still have work to do. Could you please wait for a moment?"

The guard urged, "Hurry up!"

Xiao Kangzi smiled and said, "Ah, yes, yes."

After saying that, the guards went out and waited for Xiao Kangzi at the door.

When Xiao Kangzi saw that everyone had gone out, he quickly wrapped up the night pearl and looked around the house, looking for a place to hide it.

Now that this thing has appeared inexplicably, there is no time to think carefully about why it happened. The only thing we can do now is to hide it first.

If you carry it with you, you will be found immediately if you are searched.

Finally, Xiao Kangzi fixed his eyes on the long boots on the ground. His boots smelled extremely bad and most people would not think of searching here. Thinking of this, Xiao Kangzi threw the night pearl into his boots.

Then he picked up his socks and covered it.

After looking at Xiaokangzi, he still felt uneasy, so he stepped on the stool and put his boots away. Only then did he feel satisfied.

"My Lords, I have packed everything. I will follow you right away!"

The guard opened the door and looked at Xiao Kangzi. "Let's go."

Ministry of Punishment

It was extremely cool in here, and one could not help but feel a chill on one's back as soon as one came in. Xiao Kangzi felt guilty like a thief, and was a little scared and nervous, but he still encouraged himself.

Concubine Ru is also here. She is the one who ordered everything. With her around, she will definitely not let anyone touch her.

After all, if something happened to her, she would be the one who would be in trouble.

"Your servant pays respects to Concubine Qing and Concubine Ru." Xiao Kangzi bowed his head and said

When Rupin saw that it was someone from her palace who came, she said unhappily, "Get up."

Rupin was about to torture Yingcan just now, but at this moment, Xia Lu showed up and ruined her plan.

They also wanted to check the palace maid who had interacted with Yingcan in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and ended up bringing Xiaokangzi over.

Concubine Qing said, "Xiao Kangzi, Yingcan from Jingyang Palace said that you were the one who accompanied her the whole time in the Ministry of Internal Affairs that day, looking for things for her, so have you ever seen anything wrong with her?"

Xiao Kangzi said, "Replying to Concubine Qing, although I was the one who sent Miss Yingcan away that day, I was not always with her. There was a time when someone from the palace asked me to find something, so I left for a while. Maybe Miss Yingcan was at that time..."

After saying that, he looked at Yingcan meaningfully.

Concubine Qing said, "It seems that Yingcan still does not have sufficient evidence to prove her innocence. Xiao Kangzi was not by her side all the time that day."

Rupin also took the opportunity to say, "Yes, Madam, Xiaokangzi is a palace maid of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. She has to receive anyone who comes. How could she only serve her!"

"Once Xiao Kangzi leaves, she can move around freely. This is a good opportunity to strike!"

Yingcan felt extremely disgusted when he saw Concubine Ru confusing right and wrong and Concubine Qing acting according to the circumstances.

At this time, Xia Lu also expressed his opinion.

"My lady, I want to ask you a question."

Concubine Qing said, "You ask."

Xia Lu said to Xiao Kangzi, "You said that you were not with Yingcan all the time that day, and you met with people from other palaces. I want to ask, which palace did you meet with? Is he here now?"

Xiao Kangzi glanced at Rupin uneasily and quickly replied, "That day, I also received Liu'er from Chengping Palace. She came to ask for ice-making tools. I thought that would be faster than choosing fabrics, so I went out to send Liu'er away first, leaving Yingcan alone in the room."

Concubine Ru was very satisfied with Xiao Kangzi's answer and gave him an admiring look.

Xia Lu asked, "Who is Liu'er? Stand out."

After hearing this, Liu'er stood out from the crowd.

"Your Excellency, I am Liu'er. Xiao Kangzi is right. I did go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to ask for ice-making tools that day. Our young master has been very angry in recent days, so she asked for some ice. After Xiao Kangzi gave it to me, I left immediately."

When Yingcan saw Liu'er, he vaguely remembered what happened that day. Someone had indeed come to ask for things to make ice, so Xiaokangzi went out temporarily, and when he came back, his expression became strange.

Maybe Liu'er was the one who secretly took over the Night Pearl from Xiao Kangzi!

Liu'er was a palace maid serving Concubine Kang Zuo Wenyi, and Concubine Kang was the biological mother of the Fifth Prince. Concubine Ru and Zuo Wenyi had jointly planned what happened today.

Yingcan figured it out all of a sudden.

Seeing that Yingcan had no way to explain, Concubine Ru wanted to take action again. Just now, she had been shouting at Xiaokangzi from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Now that Xiaokangzi was here, he couldn't prove her innocence. So she could finally be tortured!

"My queen, there is not much truth in Yingcan's mouth. In my opinion, she will only confess under severe punishment!"

Concubine Qing pretended to be embarrassed and said, "The emperor entrusted this matter to me, which shows his trust in me. I must not let him down. I must investigate it thoroughly. It is indeed a bit tricky right now..."

"Forget it, just do as you say!"
