Su Miu had just walked to the entrance of Longyin Palace when she saw Hua Jin Yi appear in her line of sight.
After the deliberate gentleness faded from the woman’s face, all that was left was an overbearingly strong demeanour, “It’s so late, you’ve come to look for the Emperor as well?”
Su Miao smiled, “In that case, Empress Mother is also here to find the Emperor?”
“Actually speaking, the matter is somewhat related to you as well.”
“Oh?”
“This palace remembers that when Miss Su was still a virtuous consort, the empress dowager gave you a phoenix blood jade bracelet back when the empress dowager said that it was something the first empress dowager had left for her daughter-in-law, now that you are no longer a virtuous consort, shouldn’t the bracelet that belongs to the royal family be returned as well?”
Phoenix blood jade bracelet.
When Su Miao left at the beginning, she was still wearing it, so she naturally remembered it.
However ……
In today’s situation, to be able to make Hua Jin Yi make a big deal out of asking for a bracelet, then this was definitely not an ordinary bracelet.
Especially knowing that she would become suspicious, but still wanting to retrieve it, then it would be even more uncomplicated.
The corner of Su Miao’s mouth hooked, “Lost it.”
Hua Jin Yi’s eyes widened, “What did you say?”
Before Su Miao had the chance to speak, a figure suddenly walked out of the Dragon Yin Palace.
The man’s dark eyes held an indifferent gaze that swept past their faces, “It’s so late, what are you arguing about here?”
Su Miao’s face changed slightly.
In front of him, any words about the past, she had to carefully deliberate.
After a moment of silence, she said, “The Empress Mother wants to return the phoenix blood jade bracelet that the Empress Dowager gave me in the beginning, but ……”
After a pause, “I was too poor when I first left the palace, and there wasn’t much available around me, so I took it to a pawn shop to pawn it. Later on when I wanted to redeem it again, I couldn’t find it already If this offended the Empress and Empress Dowager, I hope to forgive you.”
Di Bei Yu’s face slightly and imperceptibly sank a few points.
Hua Jin Yi looked at her incredulously, “Something from the royal family, you even took it and pawned it because you were poor?”
Moreover, it was also said in such an understated tone.
Su Miao pursed her lips, “The Empress Mother is delicate, naturally, she doesn’t know that poor taste meals can’t even afford to eat, how can she still care about the rest?”
Hua Jin Yi was slightly shocked, “You ……”
“Go find it.”
Di Bei Yu faintly interrupted her words, “Since something is lost, I will order someone to find it tomorrow. It’s too late to pursue who’s right and who’s wrong.”
How could Hua Jin Yi not hear the favouritism in his words and bit her lip, “…… Yes.”
She had originally come here for this matter, and at this moment, she excused herself and left.
So the man’s indifferent line of sight retracted again and landed on Su Miao’s face, “You still have something to do?”
Su Miao clenched her palms, the composure she had just faced Hua Jin Yi had disappeared without a trace.
“I ……”
She stood in place in a hasty manner, “There is something to say to you.”
The long figure stood in front of her, dropping a layer of shrouded shadows on her body, and faintly said, “Speak.”
It was as if after not more than two hours of separate time, he had resumed his cool and detached indifference.
Su Miao’s gaze was blank for a moment.
For a good half a second, before saying, “I want to go out of the palace tomorrow …… You don’t need to accompany me, I will find someone to follow on my own.”
Di Bei Yu faintly swept a glance at her, “Where to?”
“Take a casual walk.”
She wanted to go to Longteng Temple to take a look.
Since Di Jinghong said that he used to go there often, she might be able to find clues there.
Di Bei Yu pulled his lips, “You don’t need me to accompany you, do you really think so, or are you deliberately saying so?”
