All the gifts were placed in the back room. When we were passing by, we passed by Miaoyan's room. Pei Yuanhao subconsciously stopped and looked inside, then looked back at me.

I whispered, "Sleeping."

"oh……"

He nodded and whispered to the person following behind him: "Give me some lighter!"

"yes."

Those people were originally light-hearted, but now they heard the emperor's instructions again, and they didn't even dare to let out a sigh of relief. They tiptoed in one by one, not like they were here to "get the stolen goods", but instead they were thieves.

I couldn't help but smile in my heart, and Su Su who was leading the way in front had already stopped.

She reached out and pushed open a door.

As soon as the door opened, a cold air came out from it. The room was not used very much. It was only used to accumulate things, and there was no burning dragon. After being idle for so long, it was naturally cold like an ice cave. The few people standing at the door were trembling with the cold air. Then, everyone immediately saw several large boxes of things piled up inside.

Pei Yuanhao said: "That's all?"

I nodded calmly: "The gifts sent by the ladies before were not moved, and they were all placed here."

Pei Yuanhao frowned and turned to look at me: "Since it's something that everyone gave you, why not put it here for nothing?"

“…”

I don't know why he still cared about this kind of thing, and answered impatiently, but everyone was there and it was hard to refute the emperor's face in person. I could only say lightly: "There are good things, but Miaoyan is still a child. If you use this, you may lose your blessings. So I will keep it for the time being."

Pei Yuanhao's face relaxed a little after hearing this, but he was not very happy. He muttered, "How could my daughter be impressed by using this little thing? I'll give it to her in the future!"

Speaking of the last sentence, it seems like he is in a state of anger.

I couldn't help looking around. Chang Qing seemed to have not heard it, and she looked at the mountains of boxes in the back room with all her heart. However, Nangong Jinhong couldn't help but look at us. When she got to my eyes, she immediately changed her gaze.

Pei Yuanhao then moved his finger: "Go in and see which box it is?"

Several young eunuchs got the order and ran in immediately.

Although there was no one to take care of the house, the things were still neatly placed. A few eunuchs went in and didn't flip them much. They immediately found the brocade box that Nangong Lizhu had sent before at the top of the stack of boxes, and carefully took it down. Pei Yuanhao said again: "It's better to take it out and find it, don't be here, so as not to make a fuss about Miaoyan later."

"yes."

The little eunuchs hurriedly carried the brocade box out and carefully placed it on the table outside.

As soon as it was opened, the people around it became quiet.

There were still a lot of books inside, which was not much different from when they were delivered before. Pei Yuanhao took a look, then turned to Nangong Jinhong and said, "Which book is it? Go and find it."

"yes."

The little eunuchs took the books inside out in piles, and Nangong Jinhong walked over to read them one by one. We waited quietly for a long time.

Finally, when he finished reading the last book, he put it back on the table.

Pei Yuanhao immediately frowned: "What?"

Nangong Jinhong turned his head to look at me, and then said to Pei Yuanhao: "Your Majesty, there is no here."

"No?"

Pei Yuanhao frowned slightly and turned to look at me.

I sat next to me, not surprising at all that he could not find it, but said calmly: "This, the folk girl doesn't know anymore. The books sent by the imperial concubine are here."

At this time, Chang Qing, who was standing beside him, thought for a while, and said hesitantly: "Did the Concubine stay after seeing that book by herself?"

Nangong Jinhong smiled faintly. When he spoke again, although he was respectful, he could not hide the coldness in his smile: "What is the Queen saying? If the Concubine really left that book, she should have taken it out when she was sick. Why did she suffer such pain now?"

When Chang Qing heard this, she thought it made sense and stopped talking.

After saying that, Nangong Jinhong turned his head to look at me again, and still smiled: "Ms. Yan, please think about where that book is placed?"

Su Su, who was standing beside her, couldn't help but said hurriedly: "I've said it, but we have never opened this box and read it. How could we know where the books are placed?"

Nangong Jinhong still smiled faintly: "But, the old minister looked at the lock just now, it didn't look like it had never been opened."

“…”

This time, Su Su was also choked.

Indeed, after I was delivered, I didn't value this brocade box, and I didn't even want to see it, so I kept it in the back room. But I also clearly remember that on the day when Nangong Lizhu sent the brocade box, Fang Zhijun told Pei Yuanhao that the box had been opened.

Since it has been opened, it will not be kept open later.

Su Su's face became a little ugly. I looked at the table of books and smiled faintly, "This box has indeed been opened."

Nangong Jinhong nodded: "It should have been kept in Miss Yan's house, right?"

I still nodded: "Yes."

"That--"

Before he finished speaking, Pei Yuanhao next to him whispered: "Qingying, did you take the book out and read it? You forgot it? You like reading."

I looked up at him.

He also looked at me: "Think about it seriously. After all, the Imperial Concubine's illness depends on this book."

“…”

I was silent and didn't reply for a while.

At this time, Nangong Jinhong next to him also laughed and said, "Yes, the old minister also heard that Miss Yan is a great disciple of Fu Badai. He is well-read and has read a lot of books. Among the ancient books sent by the imperial concubine, there may be one or two people who can see Miss Yan's eyes?"

Su Su's face turned pale with anger, and she whispered from the side: "Don't we even remember whether we have seen it myself?"

Nangong Jinhong's face darkened: "Where did this girl come from? The master talked, and she interrupted several times!"

Su Su was shocked by his scolding. When he was about to say something, I raised my hand gently: "Okay Su Su, you go down."

Her eyes turned red with anxiety, as if she could see what was going on today. She hesitated and refused to leave. Seeing this, Madam Wu next to her pulled her aside and pressed her to prevent her from moving again.

At this time, Pei Yuanhao also became a little impatient, but when he turned toward me, his tone was very calm: "Light, think about it again."

"Yes," Nangong Jinhong immediately changed his face and said with a smile: "The imperial concubine is now seriously ill, so she has saved her life by relying on the prescription in that book."

“…”

I was silent, thought for a while, and then said softly: "I wonder what Lord Nangong thinks should a civilian girl do to save the life of the imperial concubine?"

Nangong Jinhong looked at me with a smile on his face, but there was no smile in his eyes, but his tone was quite kind and even modest: "This is going to offend Miss Yan. The old minister thought so. Since the things are all in Miss Yan's house, even if Miss Yan really took out the book to read, she would not run away in this room. Why not let them look for it? If they find it-"

I interjected: "The Imperial Concubine will naturally be saved."

He smiled and said, "Not much."

"What if I can't find it?"

"If you can't find it?" Nangong Jinhong looked at me, suddenly his eyes turned red, and he lowered his head gently: "Just think - just be an old minister, I have raised such a daughter in vain."

“…”

Looking at him like this, I felt nothing in my heart, only a feeling of "it's true".

It seems that someone has really been touched in my room.

Pei Yuanhao, who was standing beside him, also frowned, but before he could speak, Nangong Jinhong said in a hoarse voice and earnestly: "Your Majesty, the old minister also knows that searching the harem is contrary to the ancestral system, but - it is related to the life and death of the imperial concubine. Please allow the old minister to usurp it once!"

After saying that, he had already kneeled in front of Pei Yuanhao with a plop.

At this time, Pei Yuanhao's eyebrows were already twisted into a lump. Looking at him crying, he looked at me again. After a while, he said softly: "Qingying..."

I also turned to look at him, without saying a word, and just nodded gently.

He was slightly shocked: "You—"

"To be honest, the folk girl really doesn't remember it, but since it is related to the life and death of the imperial concubine, the folk girl naturally cannot be too petty, otherwise-" Speaking of this, I smiled faintly.

When they heard this, everyone around them gasped.

Su Su on the other side was about to rush over immediately, but she was pressed down by Madam Wu, but Madam Wu was so scared that she turned pale and looked at me in disbelief.

Judging from their appearance, they seemed to want to rush over to stop me at this moment.

But I know very well in my heart.

Nangong Jinhong and his team have been setting up this bureau for so long that they have put all the condoms off. They only started to start after I stepped in. When I reached this point, even if I refused to search, I wouldn't believe that they had no tricks. Maybe by that time, those who waited for me would have a condom with a stabbing.

At least for now, Pei Yuanhao's attitude has not changed yet.

Everything is still within my control.

So I said calmly: "We agree to search this house without delay. If you want to search, start searching now."

Pei Yuanhao's face was gloomy. After looking at me for a long time, he finally sighed lightly, and then said to Nangong Jinhong: "Well, it's for the Imperial Concubine's illness. You can go and look for it. There is only one thing, don't disturb Princess Miaoyan, and don't search randomly to mess up the room!"

Nangong Jinhong immediately kowtowed to Pei Yuanhao: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

When the little eunuchs got the order, they began to search around the room.
