"You must find this jade pendant for me, it belongs to His Highness, it is the most important thing, you must not lose it." Lian Shiya said as she sat on a chair in the middle of the store.
However, after a careful search, they could not find the jade pendant that Lian Shiya mentioned.
However, Lian Shiya insisted that the jade pendant was lost here and even called her maidservant to testify that it was indeed the pendant that had been thrown in.
She said angrily, "This clothing shop in the west of the capital is a famous place in the capital. I never thought that I would not be able to find a jade pendant here today! It seems like there must have been a thief who stole it when I wasn't paying attention. I was here all along and didn't see anyone go out. The thief who stole the jade pendant must still be in the shop.
Lian Shiya had just finished speaking when a few guards walked in with sabers in their hands and were about to search the store.
"Wait!" Molina raised her voice, "Madam, you said that your jade pendant is missing, so we left the work in our hands to search for it. Now that we have not found the jade pendant, you said that there is a thief in my shop and you still have to search us.
Every word from Mo Liniang was very polite, but she did not step back.
Lian Shiya's face sank as she said, "Boss Mo, what do you mean by this? Could it be that you're saying that I'm falsely accusing you?"
"How could I dare? It's just that, in the absence of any evidence, the search will be conducted. It would be inappropriate under the law and etiquette. Madam, do you agree?" Mo Liniang smiled.
Lian Shiya knitted her brows as she thought to herself, "Where did the Ninth Prince and a small shopkeeper in Lian Ruyue's store get so much confidence that he would remain calm even in the face of her men?"
"My jade pendant has been lost. Search is a must. If Boss Mo has any objections, you should wait for my men to finish their search first!"
Lian Shiya gave the order and the guards were about to charge in.
As Feng Lingyue, who was hiding in a secret room on the second floor, heard this, her heart rose to her throat. Her hand gripped the door frame tightly as she looked around, wondering what she should do if someone broke in to search.
She ran to the window of the street and looked down. There was no one there.
Bang Bang Bang...
At that moment, she heard hurried footsteps downstairs again.
She gritted her teeth and pushed at the window.
"How about this, Madam, since you said that you lost the jade pendant, I promise that I will dig a hole for you." How about this, Madam, you said that you lost the jade pendant, and I promise that I will dig a hole for you. Downstairs, Mo Liniang ordered some guards to stop them and asked for Lian Shiya's opinion with a tone of discussion.
"No way!" In her mind, she thought about how she should be searched. At this time, a person dressed as a maid walked over from where she had just changed clothes. Lian Shiya instantly thought of something, pointed at the maid, and said:
"It's her!" I remember! When I was changing my clothes, this servant was standing by my side. I remember that she even touched my clothes and now, she has a sneaky look on her face. She must have definitely stolen the jade pendant! "
The maidservant raised her head, a puzzled look flashing across her eyes.
However, a surprised expression appeared on Molly's face. "Madam, you …" Are you sure? "
Lian Shiya nodded and said, "I'm sure!" It's her! It must be her! The more I look at her, the more she resembles me. Lian Ya Shi was secretly delighted in her heart. If she couldn't find it, she would say that she hid the jade pendant. Then, regardless of the consequences, she would rush in.
When the maidservant heard this, she frowned and bent her knees. "My lady, this servant came with Ji mama to help Princess An Guo carry her clothes. Ji mama took her clothes and left first. This servant will stay behind to take her shoes and boots. I haven't seen your jade pendant before. Have you seen wrongly?"
What...
Lian Shiya froze. Princess An's maid, why was this her again? As the saying goes, beating a dog to see who is in charge. How could she dare to touch someone like Princess An Guo? Unless … she didn't want to live anymore!
Lian Shiya's face turned red and white all of a sudden. She said, "Yuan …" "So, it turns out to be the princess of An Guo. Yes, I was wrong."
"Third sister, how come after so long, you're already a member of the Prince of Yue? You still can't change the bad look in your eyes." Just as the atmosphere became tense, the door to the second floor suddenly opened. Lian Yue Yue appeared at the door.
Lian Shiya was stunned and couldn't help but blurt out, "Lian Ruyue, why are you here?"
Lian Ruyue had a smile on her face as she shook her head and walked down. Her cold brows followed closely behind her with a cold expression on her face. Lian Shiya only felt a strong aura rush over; she couldn't help but swallow her saliva and lightly took a step back.
He had to admit that Lian Ru Yue was now much stronger than before. Even a slight glance could send chills down his spine.
"I wasn't planning to show up, but seeing that Third Sister has committed another stupid act, and seeing that it's because of the sisters, I can't help but come out." Lian Ru Yue walked in front of Lian Shiya and said without concealing her mocking gaze.
"You …" Lian Shiya's face flushed red and couldn't help but glance at the An Royal Princess's servant.
"County Lord, this servant is the person of the princess of An Nation, representing the princess herself. Now, someone has slandered and stolen the jade pendant, this servant cannot leave, if it were to spread and the princess finds out, this servant will lose her head, so, this servant decides to wait here for the lady to search her body, and requests the county lord to send your servant to the princess' mansion, to inform her that the princess will send someone over."
When Lian Shiya heard this and wanted to go to the princess' mansion to report, she was scared to the point that she broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly said, "No need, really no need. This aunt, I've misjudged you and misunderstood you, so there's no need to notify the princess."
Lian Ru Yue couldn't help but reveal a cold smile when she saw Lian Shiya's fearful and embarrassed expression. Lian Shiya, ah, Lian Shiya. If it wasn't for her calling Princess Eleven, she wouldn't even be willing to fight with her now.
"How can that be? You already suspect this servant, but seeing that this servant is someone from the princess' residence, you decided not to search. This would ruin the princess' reputation, so you should conduct a search for her in front of everyone." Who would've thought that the people from the An Kingdom princess' residence weren't kind people? They had to search Shiya even if they wanted to.
Lian Shiya was in a predicament. The people of the An Kingdom princess' residence were naturally not allowed to search. Otherwise, the princess would definitely blame them. However, if they didn't search, the maid wouldn't forgive them.
What should he do now?
