Gong Ziyu didn't expect that the palace gate would be robbed again in such a short time.
While feeling angry at the other party's rampant behavior, Gong Ziyu also felt a little worried about the safety of the palace gate.
Li Huashi and the other two were the most suspicious, but they could not find the lost items in the other party's house, which gave Gong Ziyu a headache for a while.
Gong Ziyu: "Where have you three been before?"
When Li Huashi heard this, she looked a little puzzled: "Master Zhiren, didn't I tell you not long ago that I was not feeling well and was resting in the house?"
Gong Shangjiao: "Are there any witnesses?"
Li Huashi nodded: "Yes, after Miss Song and I returned to the house, Miss Song was worried about me, so she came to my room to take care of me.
On the way, Miss Song told the maid that she was still sleepy, so she asked for dinner to be served later.
Gong Yuanzheng: "You haven't woken up yet, so how do you know that Miss Song asked the maid to postpone dinner?"
Li Huashi looked innocent: "Master Yuanzheng, of course it's because Miss Song was worried that I was hungry after I woke up, so she told me."
Gong Yuanzheng narrowed his eyes and looked at Li Huashi with suspicion.
Li Huashi noticed Gong Yuanzheng's gaze and smiled at him calmly.
She also knew in her heart that Gong Yuanzheng probably just disliked her and was still angry because she bit him last time.
As for Shangguan Qian, her reason was that she had health problems and was worried that it would affect her fertility, so she wanted to see a doctor for a prescription to regulate her body.
He also stated that he had just met Gong Yuanzheng and Gong Shangjiao not long ago, so they also knew about it.
All three of them had perfect excuses, but the things were indeed lost, and these three were the only suspects.
Nothing was found in the house, so Gong Shangjiao sent someone to search the three people.
But the result was the same, nothing was found.
Li Huashi: "Gentlemen, I have something to say, may I ask?"
Gong Yuanzheng: "What do you want to say?"
Gong Ziyu: "You say."
After hesitating for a while, Li Huashi said, "Something was lost at the palace gate. If we stole it, we wouldn't be able to hide it.
What's more, this was our first time entering the palace, and we were not familiar with the complex terrain of the palace, let alone stealing things under the noses of so many guards.
Is there a possibility... that the thief is not one of the brides?"
Gong Ziyu paused and said, "You mean to say that there is a thief inside the palace."
Li Huashi: "Master Zhiren, I am just making a guess. I am not sure of the specific situation. And..."
Gong Ziyu: "And what?"
Li Huashi: "Besides, since we have searched our house, why don't you search all the people at the palace gate now, while the thief may not have time to dispose of the stolen goods?"
Li Huashi's move of diverting the blame immediately diverted the attention of Gong Ziyu, who had almost wrongly accused Song Si.
The other party did not find anything from the female guest's courtyard or from Li Huashi and the other two, so Gong Ziyu and the others felt that what Li Huashi said made sense, and began to thoroughly search the palace.
After hearing what Li Huashi said, Gong Shangjiao looked at her meaningfully for a long time.
Gong Shangjiao wondered if Li Huashi said this intentionally to sow suspicion among the palace members?
Just when Li Huashi thought that Gong Shangjiao had discovered something, the other party left without saying anything.
After everyone left and returned to the house, Li Huashi couldn't help but sigh:
"I'm so smart to turn external troubles into internal worries~ Hehe, now we just have to wait for Gong Ziyu and the others to choose their brides, and then we can leave~!"
Song Si couldn't help but smile smugly.
"I don't think Gongmen is that powerful. I was worried before, but now I see that Shishi is more powerful!"
Li Huashi couldn't help but feel proud: "That's right! When they all go to sleep at night, I will take you to the forbidden area at the palace gate! Let's go to the back mountain to play!"
Song Si: "Uh, this, this is not the case... We caused the commotion, the palace gates will definitely be on high alert next time.
Besides, didn’t Bai Tou say that going to the back mountain is much more difficult than going to the front mountain? It’s difficult for him to go there alone. If he takes us with him, we’ll be easily discovered...”
Li Huashi thought about it and it was true. The palace gates were now heavily guarded, and the bride, as an outsider who had also mixed in with the assassin Wufeng, would easily become a target of suspicion.
In fact, if she were alone, Li Huashi wouldn't care about being exposed.
The main reason is that it is inconvenient to drag Song Si into the water.
In this case, Li Huashi decided that it would not be too late to go after she had made sufficient preparations.
Anyway, whether it is flying from the sky or digging a hole underground, there are plenty of ways.
Li Huashi: "Well, then let's wait for the bride selection to be over and then go back obediently."
However, not long after Li Huashi made this decision...
Not long after, Gong Shangjiao and his entourage returned to the women's courtyard with a large number of guards.
The maid knocked on Li Huashi's door and invited her to the hall of the female guest courtyard alone.
Along the way, Li Huashi was full of doubts, wondering whether the other party had discovered something.
But no matter how she asked, the maid just repeated the same thing over and over again, asking them to go to the hall to talk.
With doubts, as soon as Li Huashi entered the hall, Gong Ziyu and the other two stared at her sharply.
Li Huashi paused. She had been thinking for a long time along the way, but couldn't figure out where she might have been exposed.
