When Shen Luoxi heard this, his face instantly darkened. He followed the steward to the warehouse and asked him to count it again in front of him. He found that a python-patterned gold-jade jade ring was missing. That ring was the most popular of these gifts. Something valuable.
The sudden theft at this time is by no means an accident.
Shen Luoxi turned her head and Xue Yu hurriedly explained with red eyes: "I check this slave every morning and evening, and ask the guards to guard me carefully. I didn't expect that such a thing would happen..."
"Princess please punish me!"
The steward followed suit, Shen Luoxi said calmly: "No matter how cautious you are, you can't guard against a deliberate thief."
"The most important thing right now is to quickly find the ring and put the others aside first."
The steward asked cautiously: "Such an important thing has been lost. Should we report it to the official?"
Shen Luoxi shook his head, "No, this is a canonization gift for His Highness the Crown Prince. If others find out, not only will others not sympathize, they will only add insult to injury and say that the palace is not well guarded."
"This matter must not be made public. Let's start with the servants in the mansion to investigate."
The steward nodded and started to run out. But when he saw the person coming towards him, he hurriedly saluted and said, "See you, Your Majesty."
When Shen Luoxi heard this voice, he rolled his eyes calmly, turned to look at Cang Yunxuan, and caught a glimpse of Ning Yanran beside him out of the corner of his eye.
"Why is there so much noise in the warehouse?" Cang Yunxuan said coldly: "I just went down to court, and when I came back I heard that you brought someone to the warehouse."
Ning Yanran said softly: "Tomorrow is the canonization ceremony of His Royal Highness. My sister may just want to come over and take stock. My sister is cautious. This is a good thing."
"Sister, if the matters in the warehouse are settled, would you like to have breakfast with us?"
She asked Shen Luoxi with a smile, but there was no intention of inviting him in her eyes.
Shen Luoxi didn't take it seriously, "No need, I don't want to end up eating breakfast and get killed."
When Ning Yanran heard this, her expression suddenly changed.
This matter has obviously passed, why does Shen Luoxi still bring it up!
She glanced at Cang Yunxuan with her peripheral vision and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he had no reaction.
Recently, she and Cang Yunxuan have been inseparable in the palace. It is not an exaggeration to say that honey is mixed with oil. Even if Shen Luoxi talks nonsense, she will not be too worried.
Shen Luoxi doesn't have the ability to fight her now!
"Yanran kindly invites you, why are you saying this?" Cang Yunxuan frowned, "Can't you talk to Yanran nicely?"
"Your Majesty, you don't have to speak for me. I can bear whatever my sister treats me..."
Ning Yanran said delicately, with a resigned look, which made Shen Luoxi feel impatient.
"Your Majesty and my sister don't need to blame me. Now that the warehouse has been stolen, I don't have the time to deal with trivial matters."
"Stolen? What happened?" Cang Yunxuan asked in a deep voice.
Shen Luoxi replied calmly, "When the steward was checking the warehouse this morning, he found that the canonization gift for His Royal Highness was missing. I was just about to check, but the prince and my sister came."
"Fortunately, tomorrow is the day of canonization. It would be great if we can find it today, but if we can't find it, there may be some trouble."
Cang Yunxuan said dissatisfied: "Why don't you take careful care of such an important thing? Now you are still talking so lightly, are you planning to let me take the blame with you?"
"If you can't even manage the back house well, just let Yanran do it!"
Shen Luoxi narrowed her eyes and slowly looked at Ning Yanran. She saw that Ning Yanran was trying her best to hide the smile on her lips, but Ning Yanran's thoughts were already exposed.
"I am not as capable as my sister, but if the prince hands this important responsibility to me, I will definitely manage the palace well."
There was no ripple on the surface of Shenluo River. "Of course it is the prince who has the final say on who the prince wants to manage the palace."
"Now that the dust has settled, the prince no longer needs me to show off. As long as the prince says a word, I will hand over the housekeeping rights to my sister and let her handle this matter."
As she spoke, she looked at Ning Yanran's face.
It is no coincidence that Cang Yunxuan and Ning Yanran want to take away her housekeeping rights at this time.
If it was true that they were stealing for this matter, she would immediately hand over the housekeeper's keys and account books. She had already planned to leave anyway, and this dispensable housekeeper's right was meaningless to her, and it would be gone if it was gone.
But if not, if Ning Yanran fails to find the stolen ring before the canonization ceremony tomorrow, she will be responsible for the fault, and she will have no loss.
But Ning Yanran's expression changed and she immediately said, "Sister, don't worry, I still have a lot to learn, so it's better to take my time."
Shen Luoxi looked at her with a half-smile, "My sister is very calculating. She wants all the good things but doesn't want to worry about the bad. There is no such good thing in the world."
Ning Yanran pursed her lips and remained silent, then Cang Yunxuan stood sideways to protect her and said, "That's enough! Now that you have lost the canonization gift, you should be responsible for getting it back, instead of embarrassing Yanran here!"
When Shen Luoxi heard this, he didn't even cast a glance at Cang Yunxuan.
"Then Prince and sister, please don't waste my time here." She said coldly.
She raised her feet to leave. Cang Yunxuan wanted to stop her, but Xiao Yueze immediately blocked his movement.
Cang Yunxuan looked at him coldly, and at the same time asked Shen Luoxi, "If you don't find it, what should you do during the canonization ceremony?"
"If you can't find a way, you can't find it yourself. Prince, don't worry."
After that, Shen Luoxi left with Xiao Yueze and Xue Yu.
Cang Yunxuan clenched her fists and said nothing.
After returning to the courtyard, Xueyu took Shen Luoxi's orders and searched the house with the steward.
Shen Luoxi looked at Xiao Yueze and began to calculate as he spoke, "This matter is a bit tricky. I want you to help me go there."
"If the princess has any instructions, just tell her directly." Xiao Yueze said seriously.
After Shen Luoxi stopped calculating, he did not answer immediately, but there was a bit of coldness between his brows and eyes.
"Bring me a pen and paper," she said.
Xiao Yueze didn't ask any more questions. He immediately turned around and went into the room to bring it out and put it in front of Shen Luoxi. Then he watched her draw a map on the paper.
"This is?"
"This is where the ring finger is now." Shen Luoxi said: "Don't take risks when you arrive, just wait for the opportunity."
"It would be best if I can get it back before tomorrow. If I can't get it back, that's all."
Xiao Yueze said in a deep voice: "Princess, don't worry, I will definitely get the finger back, and I will never let the concubine take the opportunity to slander the princess."
"These are all trivial matters, your safety is more important." Shen Luoxi said.
Xiao Yueze was stunned, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
For this sentence, he was willing to go to great lengths.
"I'm going."
Shen Luoxi nodded, watching his back disappear on the roof, and then lowered his head to calculate, his eyes flashing.
Why did Cang Minglang do this?
