“The emperor is here!” When the eunuch’s unique sharp voice sounded outside, Cang Shuhang hurriedly knelt .
He knelt on his knees and didn’t dare to raise his head to look at the emperor . He could only vaguely see a pair of cloud boots embroidered with a five-claw golden dragon, passed by him .
“You are the Magistrate of Dongyang City?” The emperor sat down at the dragon seat and looked at Cang Shuhang with cold eyes .
Cang Shuhang stayed kneeling on the floor, without the emperor’s permission, he didn’t dare to move: “Answering back his majesty, this official is Cang Shuhang . ”
“Look up!”
Cang Shuhang hurriedly looked up, but his eyes kept looking down . He didn’t dare to directly look at the emperor .
“Look at this thing . Do you know it?” When the emperor’s words fell, the eunuch immediately brought the velvet box close to Cang Shuhang: “Cang Daren, please have a look!”

Cang Shuhang took a glance . Isn’t this the birthday gift he gave to the empress?
“Answering back to his majesty, this is this official’s gift to the empress dowager . ”
The emperor looked at him coldly and asked in a deep voice: “Where did this come from?”
Cang Shuhang’s heart skipped a bit and almost sank . Is there something wrong with this thing?
“Answering back to his majesty, this thing was obtained by this official’s cousin from an antique shop . Looking at its unique appearance, this official bought it to my cousin and decide to give it to the empress dowager . ”
When the emperor saw the strange look in his face, he knew that he was lying: “Really? You bought it in an antique shop? Which antique shop? Where is it? Take me now . If half of your words contain lies, you know the punishment of deceiving this emperor, right?”Read more chapters at Listnovel . com
Cang Shuhang was frightened . He had a cold sweat and almost collapse . But still, he quickly kowtowed to the emperor: “Emperor please spare this lowly one’s life . This, this jade pendant is not from an antique shop… …”

“Are you telling the truth?”
Cang Shuhang nodded: “These words are true!”
At this time, Cang Shuhang cursed the eighteen generations of He Ming’s ancestors inside his heart . That guy dared to push him into a pit . He will see how he will clean him up .
The emperor didn’t pay any more attention to Cang Shuhang . He let him continue to kneel .
Who knows how long did it take, but Cang Shuhang felt that his knees and legs were completely numb . He could hardly feel that he still had legs . It was uncomfortable, but he didn’t dare to move .
Then an old eunuch came in a hurry and said to the emperor: “Emperor, Housekeeper Sun is here . ”
The emperor nodded his head and said: “Let them come in . ”

After a while, a 50-year-old man brought two middle-aged men into the Imperial Study Room . The old man was full of spirit . He walked in front of the emperor step by step, knelt, and paid respect skillfully .
The emperor stared at Housekeeper Sun coldly, he didn’t pay attention to him . He directly asked: “Is Prince Jin’s token of engagement still there?”
Housekeeper Sun immediately nodded his head: “Answering back to his majesty, Prince Jin’s token of engagement has been kept in the treasury . When Prince Jin left the capital, this old slave asked him to take it with him . He refused and left it behind . ”
The emperor raised an eyebrow: “Then look at what this is?”
The eunuch carried the tray forward . The velvet box in the tray was opened, and a jade pendant was lying inside .
Housekeeper Sun was stunned . He thought for a moment . After looking at it closely, he busily said: “Emperor, this is not Prince of Jin’s jade pendant . ”
The emperor raised an eyebrow: “It’s not Prince Jin?”
Housekeeper Sun nodded his head: “Yes, on the jade pendant of Prince Jin, the laughing Buddha’s left hand has a little red dot on it, but this one is on the right hand . ”
The emperor’s complexion drastically changed . He tried to look at the jade pendant carefully and found out that what Housekeeper Sun said was right . He didn’t notice this earlier . There were two pieces of this jade pendant . One has a red dot on the left and one has on the right . Chu Yan’s jade pendant has a red dot of blood on the left hand, while that child’s jade pendant was on the right hand .
