But at that time, the jade pendant could no longer be found. Although Lord Zheng Hou was heartbroken, he could only let it go.

What else?Turn over the palace?

It is said that Zheng Shizi refused to say who he gave the jade pendant to, and because of this matter, Zheng Houye was locked up by the wall of the ancestral hall for a month.

She couldn't remember what pattern was carved on that jade pendant for a long time, but only vaguely remembered that it was a small and exquisite jade pendant. She couldn't put it down as soon as she saw it, and she wore it every day.

She couldn't find it later, and she was sad for a long time.

"What did you give your friend?" She asked carefully.

Zheng Zhongwen smiled bitterly: "It's a family heirloom jade pendant. I've worn it since I was born. My father said it was a treasure, but it kept me safe. I later gave it to a friend I valued very much, but my friend— —”

"But what?" Her heartbeat gradually accelerated, and she stared closely into his eyes.

"She died, it's all a lie, and it's a lie to say that family treasures can protect safety!"

No, maybe it's not a lie, maybe, it can really protect peace.

She is still alive, isn't this the best proof?
It turned out that she was able to bring the dead back to life, and was able to live a new life, thanks to that jade pendant. It turned out that the birthmark on her chest was a symbol on the jade pendant.

It turned out that it was not God who gave her life again, but the man in front of her!
She tried her best to suppress her excitement, and didn't want him to see her strangeness. She couldn't say it, she couldn't say it, it would be of no benefit to anyone.

She didn't want him to be involved in this political dispute, but only hoped that he could live a life of peace and joy as his father wished.

"What's wrong with you?" He finally noticed her strangeness and asked.

She shook her head: "Maybe I'm tired, I want to sleep!"

He naturally stretched out his hand to hold her arm, helped her up, helped her to sit on the edge of the bed, and said softly: "Then you rest, I'm going back to my room!"

She nodded without saying a word.

Zheng Zhongwen turned to leave, closed the door gently, stood outside the door for a long time without stepping away, just like the person sitting by the bed in the room without lying down for a long time.

Three days later, both of them were much better. Sangui went back to Chaoyang City, brought a carriage, and took them back to the inn in Chaoyang City.

Chaoyang City is [-] miles away from Pengcheng, and it takes two days to get there by horse-drawn carriage, but now it is only five days away from New Year's Eve. After all the back and forth, I am afraid that I will not be able to catch up with returning to Beijing for the New Year.

Thinking of the ferocious appearance of the old Hou Ye in the mansion, Sangui couldn't help shaking his body, hurriedly tugged on the sleeves of the young master, and said in a low voice: "Young master, why don't you ask the guards to send Miss Qi back to Pengcheng, let's go back to Beijing earlier Otherwise, it will be difficult to catch up with New Year's Eve."

Zheng Zhongwen shook his head: "No, I don't feel relieved if I don't send her back in person. If I can't make it on New Year's Eve, I won't be able to make it. I'm not a child anymore. You send someone to send a letter back and say we will arrive a few days later."

Sangui had no choice but to follow suit. The matter decided by the son, not to mention nine cows, even a hundred cows would not be able to pull back.

Starting from Chaoyang City, there was a snowstorm on the road. It was only a two-day journey, but it took three days to reach Pengcheng. At this time, the streets of Pengcheng were already full of joy. The New Year in the south is different from that in the north. Many people like to start early The Spring Festival couplets were posted in two days, and the children also wore festive new clothes and ran around in the snow. Red lanterns can be seen everywhere, and the debris of firecrackers is faintly visible in the snow.

This is the Chinese New Year!
