step by step

Chapter 142

Xue Qinshou's line of sight was blocked, and he reluctantly moved away a little, finally seeing the font inside the jade pendant.

"This is a Zhuo character. You can't even recognize this one, right?" She laughed. This font used to be the Bian Bang script handed down by the Tianlu Dynasty. After Qingjing, it has rarely been used. don't know.

The word "zhuo"?

A handsome face suddenly appeared in Xue Youling's mind, and she murmured involuntarily: "His surname is also Zhuo."

She looked at the word carefully again, and exclaimed, "Mother, this can't be Mr. Zhuo, Mr. Zhuo's stuff!"

Although she only met Zhuo Mingxuan once, she left a deep impression on her. After all, such an outstanding young master can be regarded as the best in Jindu where there are so many talents.

"You silly boy, whose belongings do you think this is?" Xue Qinshou asked puzzledly, not realizing it yet.

"It's the son of Lord Zhuo, he is Zhuo Mingxuan."

Xue Youling stammered, her cheeks were flushed, for some reason, that handsome face always appeared in her mind, and her heart beat suddenly accelerated.

"What did you say?" Xue Qinshou was shocked when he heard it clearly.

The young master of the Zhuo Palace turned out to be the owner of this jade pendant?

It's just unbelievable!
Xue Qinshou picked up the base of the jade pendant to look at it again, and saw a very delicate and simple totem clearly appearing on it. If you don't look carefully, you can't distinguish the texture.

A lifelike dragon is carved on it, and there are countless auspicious clouds around it.

Xue Qinshou's heart trembled, this is clearly a picture for the palace!

"Is this jade pendant really owned by Mr. Zhuo as you said?" Xue Qinshou asked again.

"Well, it's true, my daughter met him by accident." Xue Youling nodded shyly.

Xue Qinshou couldn't help feeling a little annoyed, so wouldn't she be busy for nothing?

If she had known this earlier, she shouldn't have brought this jade pendant back. Now she is selling such an extraordinary item, and I don't know how much sensation it will cause.

The more Xue Qinshou thought about it, the more depressed she became, wishing she could rush out and throw away the jade pendant now.

However, it would be a pity to lose such a valuable thing. What if it causes others to follow the trail, which would be a bad thing?

She thought about it, and finally sighed.

"Alas" Xue Qinshou sighed, "This is really troublesome."

Xue Youling asked puzzledly: "Mother, what are you worried about?"

Xue Qinshou shook her head, "This thing belongs to the owner, and it has such a valuable status, I'm afraid it can't be exchanged for money."

After finishing speaking, Xue Qinshou put the jade pendant back into the jade box, but was held down by Xue Youling.

"Mother, is there no other use for this jade pendant?" Xue Youling asked unwillingly.

How could she miss such a good opportunity?

"What else can it be used for?" Xue Qinshou asked back.

Xue Youling's eyes flickered for a moment, and then said firmly: "This thing is so luxurious, it must be Mr. Zhuo's personal keepsake, and it must be meaningful to him. Now that he lost the jade pendant, I don't know how impatient he is. Mother might as well give it to his daughter. Returning the daughter to the original owner is also a good way to sell the Zhuo Palace as a favor."

Seeing this, Xue Qinshou immediately understood that the owner of this jade pendant was in her daughter's heart.

She felt that this matter was not impossible, she was greedy for the value attached to the jade pendant, now that Xue Youling proposed to return the property to the original owner in exchange for a favor, it is also a way.

Besides, if the jade pendant is returned to the Zhuo Palace, maybe they can get more compensation from them.

Seeing that Xue Qinshou was silent, Xue Youling couldn't help urging eagerly, "Mother, just give me this jade pendant, it's really too precious."

Seeing her daughter's impatience, Xue Qinshou couldn't help laughing and said: "Here I give you! How can I not obey you as a mother!"

This precious girl finally got the hang of it.

Thinking of this, she put the jade pendant into Xue Youling's hands, and said earnestly: "You Ling, this jade pendant was obtained quietly from the Ye Mansion. If anyone asks, just say that it was picked up on the road. You must be careful about this matter." Keep it a secret, don't let it out, or you will bring trouble on your mother, understand?"

"Mother, don't worry, my daughter must keep her mouth shut!" Xue Youling nodded solemnly, wondering why Zhuo Mingxuan's jade pendant ran to Ye Mansion.

After thinking for a while, she couldn't figure it out, so she simply made up her mind that she must make good use of this treasure. When she can marry into the Zhuo family and become Princess Zhuo, she must use this treasure as a token of love for Zhuo Ming. Xuan gave it to her.

Xue Youling and Xue Qinshou talked about some topics about the Zhuo Palace, until the sunset was about to set, Xue Qinshou left, her face was full of excitement, she couldn't wait to let her daughter go to the Zhuo Palace and that Mr. Zhuo is reminiscing about the old days.

After Ye Zhaoyan bandaged the wound in Ye Mansion, he changed his clothes and went out to Zhuo Wang Mansion.

Halfway through the journey, she realized that something was wrong, and the Bi Luoyu in her arms had disappeared.

"Zhuyu, when you packed my clothes just now, did you see my jade pendant?"

Zhuyu heard the words, tried hard to recall for a long time, shook her head, "The jade pendant seems to be carried by the young lady, but the servant didn't see the jade pendant when changing clothes, maybe it was thrown in the mansion?"

Ye Zhaoyan was shocked, and hurried back to Ye Mansion, turned the whole yard upside down, but found no trace of Bi Luoyu.

She kept this piece of Bi Luoyu carefully for a long time, and never showed it to anyone except her personal servant girl.

She originally planned to return it to Zhuo Yibai at home today, but she did not expect that an accident would happen before leaving.

"Miss, I've searched for it several times but I can't find it. Could it be that it was taken away by a mouse?" Zhuyu asked worriedly.

"Could it be on the way out?" Ye Zhaoyan had a faint hope in his heart. It would be fine if he landed on the way. There are many people from the Ye family patrolling along the way. If they are picked up, they will definitely be sent back to Ye Zhaoyan. government.

This also saves a lot of trouble.

Ye Zhaoyan searched carefully again, but still didn't have any clues.

After sending someone to say hello to the Ye family guard, she decided to wait for now.

Two days later.

"Miss, ma'am!"

Xue Youling sat sleepily on the soft couch in front of the window. Her maid, Liuhua, lifted the curtain and entered the room, holding a basin of warm water in her hand, preparing to wash her face.

"What's the matter? Are you in such a panic?" Xue Youling opened her sleepy eyes. The wound on her forehead has been carefully nursed, and there is still a purple-red mark, which is obviously just scabbed.

It may take a few more days for the wound to heal, and she can't wait to go to Zhuo Wang's mansion.

Fortunately, I can brush a few strands of broken hair to cover my forehead, but this is always a bit of a pity.

"Miss Hui, madam has prepared beautiful clothes for you!" Liu Hua handed the handkerchief to her and said with a smile.

"Oh! Really?" Hearing this, Xue Youling regained her spirits immediately, sat up quickly, and let Liuhua wash and wash her, secretly happy in her heart.

The mother still loves herself the most.

After a while, the maid sent the clothes.

I saw a lake green dress embroidered with orchids quietly lying on the tray, with several blooming peonies outlined in gold thread on the cuffs and neckline; Phnom Penh looks very graceful and luxurious.

Xue Youling picked up the skirt and looked left and right, feeling very satisfied.
