Catching Thieves in the Imperial Harem
Chapter 117:Catching Thieves in the Imperial Harem
Yang Ling did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly said, "Yes, the courtier will go immediately", saying a courtesy, hurried out of the temple.Ma Yongcheng stood behind the Emperor Zhengde, two eyes dripping, and he looked very anxious when he left.
Seeing that Yang Ling had disappeared outside the palace door, Ma Yongcheng really couldn't help it, and hurriedly said to Zhengde: "Emperor, the slave is in charge of the internal affairs government, if there is a slave and a slave in the inner palace to steal, the slave will recognize it at a glance, it is better for the slave to look at it."
Zhengde "um" said, not too much to go to the heart, only waved, Ma Yongcheng hurried out.He stood behind Zhengde and saw that he could not help but show a faint smile in his panicous mouth.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs's procurement manager of this fat flow of oil, who does not covet?At the beginning, Gu Da used to be very red with this son, but Ma Yongcheng was originally in the domestic government for the errand, and it was close to the water tower to get on first.
Since he took this handiwork, and the West factory public seedlings very close, a climb this high branch to the valley with a few people are not too much in the eyes, the valley mouth does not say, the heart has already stored mustard, know that today this matter is related to him, can not help but a little gloating.
Zhang Runbao did not know what Yang Ling gave her, pinching the feel of a little strange, she hurried back to the seat, itchy and hard to hold up, the sleeves fell, the hand is actually a large cake with a roll of meat, the top of the tooth print, Zhang Runbao can not help but cry and laugh.
Zhang Tianshi saw that he raised his eyebrows and put on his brother's old-handed appearance: "How old are you?"Hungry to be born?A large girl's house to see the emperor can't bear to put the cake down, and the face of the dragon and tiger mountain has been lost by you."
“I...” I couldn’t say a word of it.
As soon as Yang Ling left the palace door with his daughter, she saw Princess Yongfu standing under the colonnade with a small maid, and saw Yang Ling coming out, and couldn't help but be overjoyed to come forward.Just a few steps out.She saved her identity, out of her own survival, had to stop again, but the anxious color between the eyebrows was not reduced.
Today's emperor wedding, Princess Yongfu also changed the color embroidered palace dress, the big sleeve red robe embroidered with gorgeous peony flowers, the skirts floated with a few gorgeous, the whole person is also like the peony in the flowers of the general national color.Yang Ling rushed to see the salute: "Weichen has seen the eldest princess."But the harem... the harem . . . . . . . . . . . .
Princess Yongfu waved her hand and said to the two maids who followed him: "Go ahead of your head, General Yang, let's talk as we walk."
One and two ladies opened the distance, Princess Yongfu immediately said with a rush: "General Yang, the princess has no one to discuss, so I have to call you by the reason, and now this ugly palace royal family has known."What do you say?”
Yang Ling said, “What’s the ugly... the big thing?”
Yang Lingxin said, “Is any harem stealing from the emperor?”What is she ugly about?Such a beautiful little girl, she will never steal people?"Yang Ling looked at the pure face of Princess Yongfu and immediately dispelled this kind of filthy thought.
Princess Yongfu said: "The princess took the two princesses to visit the harem, the married princess also went to the Cinning Palace to congratulate, Ning Qing emperor aunt will be the first emperor to her a pair of "Bolong Cui jade" bracelet to the Queen Mother."
Yang Ling interjected: “What?Is it not something that the emperor gave?
Princess Yongfu rolled her eyes.Airway: "If you can't transfer the gift, how dare the emperor pass the moment?"It is... but the two dragon bracelets are fake, and Princess Feng'an knows the jewels, and she has identified the truth and falsehood.She had always been at odds with Aunt Ningqing, so she said it in public, causing Aunt Ning Qing to seek death and live, what do you say?
Yang Ling said, "Princess Ningqing is not willing to send people, should not deceive people with fakes, now it is not recognized, left and right is lost face, what is the big deal?" 」
Princess Yongfu was full.He said, “My aunt lost her face, where is the face to live?”The Queen Mother would not spare her, and the jade bracelet was not that she intended to deceive the queen, but because the real goods were given the bag by the royal sister Xiu Ting.”
If it had not been for Yongfu's eagerness to speak, Yang Ling would not have known the name of Princess Yongcun for a lifetime, and then I heard that the little nanny had actually stolen the jewels of the princess, and couldn't help but be surprised: "drop the bag?"Ah!Because I said it at the beginning...
Princess Yongfu glanced at him and said, “Yes, the female official in the aunt’s house is too unscrupulous.”But the house was bought by her.Help her to deceive the Queen Mother.The royal sister thought . . . since she was going to plant her dirty, find someone to get rid of her.Then he secretly changed her bracelet, who would have thought that the royal aunt would give the bracelet to the queen.”
Yang Ling listened to it and was angry and urgent, and said, “How is Princess Yongshun... how is it so nonsense?”Feel free to stuff some valuable things, how to value even the city's treasures are stolen as a thief."
Princess Yongfu said bitterly: "Where is it so easy, we women say that it is the emperor's noble, sometimes it is not as good as a domestic slave, the female official served the Queen Mother for nearly 30 years, more favored than Aunt Ningqing."
Even this first emperor gave the baby that said that she had stolen it, but the whip was dismissed into the clothing, did you say that ordinary things could cure her?The aunt did not know the truth, cried to the death, and determined that someone in the house had stolen her treasure, and asked the empress Downa to thoroughly investigate the princess house, and she was innocent."
Yang Ling thought: "Since this is the case, rather than waiting for the Queen Mother to attack, it is better to pre-empt, originally not to rectify the slave, although the plan is some in and out, but now I have to push the boat along the water."
Princess Yongfu said, "But... but the bracelet we have not yet had a chance to put it in the housekeeper's house, and even if we go to check, we can't find anything."
Yang Lingyu asked, “Where is the bracelet?”Give it to me.”
Princess Yongfu blushed and said, “In... on me.”She was embarrassed to take something in front of the man's ground, saw a fake mountain castle appeared in front of her, Princess Yongfu rushed to the first few steps, hiding from the fake mountain vine after quickly removing the jade bracelet.
This jade bracelet is a valuable treasure, Princess Yongfu is afraid of breaking, with a good bosom bag hidden in her arms.She took out the small package and ran out and handed it to Yang Ling, and Yang Ling did not look at it and put it in her arms.
He opened his mouth and bit his lips.The jinpa was something she had with her, and the name of her embroidered above was still embroidered, how could she be taken away, and she hesitated to say how she was going to return, and the voice of Ma Yongcheng in the distance shouted: "Mr. Yang?“Mr. Yang, wait for us.”
The princess listened and asked for nothing more.He said quickly: "General Yang, be careful of Ma Yongcheng, he is in charge of the internal affairs department, and the relationship with the female official is very large, I... I will go first..."
Yang Ling stopped and saw Ma Yongcheng chasing after him with his robe.Looking at Yang Ling from afar, Ma Yongcheng could not help but relax his tone and catch up and laugh: “Mr. Yang.”The Emperor asked us to go with the adults to find out.”
Yang Ling had just heard Princess Yongfu mention it, and he smiled quietly and said, "It's very good, if you come forward, you can be justly justified, otherwise the official will always ask about things in the harem, it is really not appropriate."
Ma Yong became a long face squeezed out a little smile: "There has always been this harem thing."If there is any case that is not convenient for the mother to come forward, the inner affairs department and the imperial family came forward to inquire, and Mr. Yang should respond to this miser, which is the emperor's incomparable favor."
He rolled his eyes and glanced at Yang Ling.Seeing that he was not flattered and looked at, he could not guess his mind for a moment, so he had to knock on the side and say: "Mr. Yang may not know it yet, hey!In fact, in this palace, the family is very big, sometimes throwing something ordinary, everyone is open and close their eyes.
To say that the housekeeper in the house of the princess, we are still very familiar with it.She was very careful in the slave and slave in the correctional house, and it was said that no one should dare to break the rules, alas!It is not easy to be a slave, sometimes, you have to give people a black pot, Mr. Yang, we have more compassion for them.”
The woman was good in appearance, but it was harsh inside.Yang Lin was very tired of her.Listening to Ma Yongcheng's words, his heart was more calm.Look at this, the female official is afraid that there is really no stealing, but still do not dare to touch these registered national treasures, this trip if you can find the princess's land objects from her room, take the time to put this thing in, there is real and false, who will suspect that someone is dirty?
Yang Ling was determined in his heart and smiled: "The official is instructed to do the duty, who dares to wrong the good people, we go to investigate casually, as long as we can cope with the errands, not let the emperor be questioned, the father-in-law despite rest assured."
Ma Yongcheng listened to the heart, in his mind, in any case, his own internal affairs government procurement chief, the emperor in front of the red man, but also a deep inside the inner palace, to Yang Ling's road no help for the married princess to have weight, Yang Ling can not sell his face.
In the palace of Cinning, the princess of Ningqing knelt on the ground and burst into tears.She was kind enough to give her beloved treasure to the new queen, but unexpectedly she came out so big and ugly, how to pull it down in her face.She was embarrassed by the female official, when the thing was dropped, she immediately thought that it may be stolen by the female officer, so she insisted that the empress Dowager thoroughly investigate the princess house, but also her innocence.
Jin to the Queen's land is actually a Sibe goods, in the case of so many royal relatives were exposed, the Queen Mother was also angry and blue, heard the close servant report, said the emperor sent the Ministry of the house to the general manager and the pro-military guard leader to investigate the case, the Queen Mother can not help but relax.
The woman's official room really has a lot of valuable items in the princess's house, but the bracelets she really did not dare to move, she thought that she was the maids who were bold, dared to carry her to steal the bracelet, was trying to go back after the torture, the real estate girl was tortured all over, listening to the emperor sent people to investigate, if the search came from the house, not the city.
The Queen Mother had not believed that serving her for many years was a wicked slave to the crime of deceiving the master and stealing treasures in the house, but looking at her humiliating appearance, the Queen Mother could not help but be suspicious.
The new queen just entered the palace received a fake gift, the heart is also very embarrassed, only hope that the emperor sent someone to find out that someone did steal the treasure, after all, it is good to say, if the emperor with fake goods to her, she is not good-looking.The palace of Cinning was quiet for a while, and everyone was thinking, waiting for the news to come from the ten royal palaces.
Yang Ling and Ma Yongcheng went to the Ningqing Princess House, and all the eunuchs and maids in the house rushed to the courtyard, and searched the house, and there were really few valuable things in the ordinary eunuch women's room, but there were more good things in the female official's house, Yang Ling did not recognize what was the female official's own, and turned out the seemingly valuable things and set up a table full.
Ma Yongcheng eyes watched him find some of the valuable jewelry hidden in the secret, the family, the face can not help but pull the longer, finally can not help but be angry, gloomyly said: "Mr. Yang, there is no jade bracelet in this female official room, find out what these clutters do?"The Emperor told us to check the bracelet, or not to cross the branches?”
Yang Ling looked at him and smiled: "Since it feels suspicious, it should be checked, otherwise we should not answer it, if the emperor asked, how to answer it?"Oh, yes, so there was something found in the female official's office, and the officer did not recognize it. Do you see whether the eunuchs of the housemaids were called in to recognize them, and to see if these things were the princess's house?"
Ma Yongcheng listened to the dark joy, just worried that Yang Ling would not follow selfishness, and he was too careful with his feelings.He wanted to sell my face, and was afraid of taking responsibility, and now if the princess people admitted that these things were female official personal belongings, he did not recognize them, then even if there was something late in the future, it would have nothing to do with him.
Ma Yongcheng thought of this can not help but smile: "Yes, it is time to make people recognize, Yang, although at ease", he rushed out of the door, called the supervisor first low instructions.
Since he became the master of the harem procurement, these small supervisors and small eunuchs in the 24th Bureau of the Sixth House all looked up to his nose and naturally obeyed him.Ma Yongcheng ordered, led the group of eunuchs into the room, the supervisor casually looked at the things on the table, then nodded his head and said: "Go back to the adults, father-in-law, these things in the book of the princess house is not recorded, not in the house of things."
His opening, which one dared to say yes, the eunuchs of the palaces even shook their heads and said that they did not recognize it.Ma Yongcheng looked at Yang Ling with great enthusiasm, Yang Ling smiled and said: "Well, not good, this official and Ma Gong are also instructed to do things, and if you don't do it carefully, you can't help being scolded by the emperor!". .
He said casually holding up a blue and white porcelain urn to play: "This is the year of the formation, right?"But good porcelain, well, I see if it is not.”
He turned over the blue and white urn to see the bottom mark, but the urn always fell under the urn, and lost the table full of things found out, and there were four Nanjing silk jade brocades in the place, and the two bracelets fell on the silk satin and played a few times without breaking.
Yang Ling put down the blue and white porcelain urn, picked up the bracelet and looked at both eyes, looked at the man in the house, smiled and said: "These two bracelets, the official does not recognize, you are, is it a princess thing?"
