    Shen Zhiyan took the brocade box, took a look at it and handed it to His Highness, "Is the gold hairpin in the brocade box broken?"

    Chang Qingqing nodded and said: "Yuan Qiu just arrived at the miscellaneous room and accidentally fell to the ground and broke it. The servant is a palace servant of the Six Shang Bureau. She knows how to repair jewelry, so Yuan Qiu asked the servant to help her repair it.  Yuan Qiu knew that his family was in urgent need of money, so he planned to repair the gold hairpin and ask his slaves to leave the palace to sell the gold hairpin for money and ask someone to take it home to support his parents."

    Murong Ci looked at the brocade box. The brocade box was made of red sandalwood and inlaid with exquisite mother-of-pearl. However, it looked like it was old, so it should be an old thing.  She opened the brocade box, and found a bright and beautifully shaped gold hairpin held on the maroon velvet bottom.

    The hairpin is in the shape of a pine branch, with a few pine leaves hanging on it and a few plum blossoms hanging down from the pine branch. It is graceful, elegant and bright in color.

    This is the golden hairpin of pine, bamboo and plum.

    ????????????? Such a gold hairpin would be worn by foreign wives, but looking at the exquisite workmanship, it is a gold hairpin made by Liu Shang Bureau.

    She felt like she had seen this pine, bamboo, plum and golden hairpin somewhere, but she couldn't remember it for the moment.

    "This golden hairpin can only be worn by concubines and married women. How could a palace maid of Yuan Qiu have this precious golden hairpin?"

    "My servant asked Yuan Qiu, and she said it was concubine Zhao who rewarded her." Chang Qingqing replied.

    "When was the last time you saw Yuan Qiu?" Murong Ci recalled carefully that he had seen Zhao Concubine several times in the past, but he had never seen Zhao Concubine wearing a pine, bamboo and plum gold hairpin.

    "Three days ago, Yuan Qiu gave this golden hairpin and the brocade box to the slave. Liu Shang Palace was very busy these three days, and the slave couldn't get away to come to Yuan Qiu. It was not until today that she came to Yuan Qiu and asked her to see the golden hairpin.  Hairpin. If she feels that the gold hairpin is no longer a problem, I will try to help her sell the gold hairpin." Chang Qingqing replied unhurriedly, clearly and without any fear.

    According to palace rules, palace residents cannot sell palace items privately, but if it is a personal item, it is not so strict.

    The golden hairpin was given to Yuan Qiu by his master. If Yuan Qiu took the golden hairpin outside the palace and sold it, no one would hold him accountable.

    Murong Ci knew this and looked at Shen Zhiyan, their eyes intertwined, understanding each other's thoughts.

    Chang Qingqing¡¯s performance can be described as majestic, without any panic or fear at all.

    But she was somewhat suspicious, and the motive for the murder was the precious golden hairpin of pine, bamboo and plum. Chang Qingqing secretly killed Yuan Qiu in order to steal the golden hairpin of pine, bamboo and plum.  However, she brought the gold hairpin to Yuan Qiu today, which would easily expose her. Isn't this contradictory?

    She could have come quietly, or asked if Yuan Qiu was discovered after his death, so that it would not be easy for him to be exposed.

    These thoughts just flashed by. Murong Ci stared at Chang Qingqing. She lowered her head, her face was magnanimous, and she looked innocent.

    "You know, Yuan Qiu is dead." Shen Zhiyan locked his eyes on Chang Qingqing, observing her reaction.

    "What? Yuan Qiu is dead? When did it happen?" Chang Qingqing's face changed drastically. She was calm and composed just now, but now she became sad and sorrowful, with water in her eyes. "How could this happen? How could Yuan Qiu die?  ¡­¡±

    Murong Ci and Shen Zhiyan looked at each other again and asked, "When you saw Yuan Qiu three days ago, was there anything strange about her?"

    Due to grief, Chang Qingqing fell to the ground, tears falling down her face.  When she heard the question, she thought for a while and said hoarsely: "She learned that something happened in her family. She was worried about her parents' illness. She was worried and anxious. She asked the servant to help herother than that, there was nothing unusual. Your Highness, Yuan Qiu  How did she die? She couldn't have committed suicide. She even wanted to leave the palace and go home to see her parents. She must have been killed"

    Shen Zhiyan asked: "Why did she die? I will investigate thoroughly, so you don't need to worry. Do you know where her home is?"

    She nodded, "I know, I'm not far from your home."

    He took out two silver ingots and handed them to her, "You try to get this silver back to Yuan Qiu's parents. I want to keep this brocade box and gold hairpin."

    Chang Qingqing sobbed and said, "I would like to thank you for your kindness on behalf of Yuan Qiu."

    After that, she returned to Liushang Bureau.

    Murong Ci looked at her back, gazing deep in thought, "Chang Qingqing doesn't look like she's pretending. She suddenly heard that Yuan Qiu was dead. It's human nature to cry with sadness, and there's no trace of acting."

    Shen Zhiyan nodded in agreement, picked up the golden hairpin of pine, bamboo and plum and looked at it, "Is this golden hairpin really awarded to Yuan Qiu by Zhao Concubine?"

    Suddenly, a broken scene flashed through her mind, and she laughed in surprise, "I remember, it's not Concubine Zhao, it's Concubine Xiao."

    "Your Highness, you mean that this golden hairpin belongs to Concubine Xiao?" He was stunned.

    "I have seen Concubine Xiao wearing this pine, bamboo and plum blossombsp; Murong Shi was a little ashamed, scratched her head and giggled, then she said enthusiastically: "Then I will think about it carefully when I go back. Your Highness, I know that a new restaurant has opened in the city, and that restaurant has launched three new dishes. Anyone who has eaten  They are all full of praise for the unique flavor and the fragrance on the teeth and cheeks, which is wonderful Because there are too many guests who want to try new dishes, there are not so many private rooms in the restaurant, so reservations must be made three to five days in advance. Your Highness, I have already made a reservation. Now  Let¡¯s go taste it.¡±

    "Princess, we can't do it today." Murong said hesitant, glanced at him, and raised his eyelids.

    "Why not? I managed to book a private room with great difficulty." Murong Shi looked disappointed, "If I don't go today, I will have to wait for several days."

    "Your Highness is tired and needs to rest." Shen Zhiyan dragged her out, "You can eat the new dishes in the restaurant anytime. Princess, I will study with you how to quickly separate red beans and sesame seeds."

    "Don't pull me, let me go" She shouted angrily, "Shen Zhiyan, let me go!"

    The shouting became farther and farther away, Murong Ci frowned and exhaled.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
