Need for Highness, Enchanting Concubine

Chapter 225 Yuan Family (1)
"Grandpa asked me to come to confirm one thing!" Ruan Shou said solemnly.

"My identity?" Feng Nanxi asked with a faint smile.

Ruan Shou nodded, thinking that Her Highness the Crown Princess should actually be much more unfathomable than it looks!

Looking at Feng Nanxi in such a state, Ruan Shou also felt that some invisible pressure was covering him, making him dare not act casually.

"May I ask how old your lady is now, and what season was she born?" Ruan Shou asked boldly.

Feng Nanxi said truthfully: "Eighteen, it should be in summer and autumn!"

She really didn't know when her birthday was, she only knew that her adoptive father picked her up in early autumn.

Age match!

Ruan Shou's expression became more and more excited, "Then what's special about you, my lady?"

"What you want to ask is the jade pendant?" Feng Nanxi answered Ruan Shou's question very simply.

Ruan Shou's eyes were about to light up when he heard the word Yupei.

"Yes, it's the jade pendant. Madam, can you tell me what that jade pendant looks like?" Ruan Shou asked expectantly.

Feng Nanxi lowered her head and frowned, pinching her chin with her hands, as if she was meditating.

Seeing this, Ruan Shou didn't dare to make any sound, for fear of disturbing Feng Nanxi.

After a while, Feng Nanxi raised her head and answered Ruan Shou's question.

"That's a jade pendant engraved with Ruan characters!" Feng Nanxi said frankly.

Ruan Shou's eyes became brighter in an instant, "Apart from that, is there anything special about it?"

Seeing Ruan Shou's anxious look, Feng Nanxi deliberately slowed down and said, "Well, there seems to be more!"

"What?" Ruan Shou asked with wide eyes.

Feng Nanxi stopped teasing him, and replied seriously: "The jade pendant with Ruan characters in the shape of a peach blossom is clear and flawless, and very firm. It emits bursts of blue light, but the yuan character on the right occasionally emits some red light, all in all, it is a rather magical jade pendant."

After hearing this, Ruan Shou asked excitedly, "Ma'am, can I have a look at that jade pendant?"

Feng Nanxi shook her head and said, "The jade pendant is not on my body now!"

"Where is that?" Ruan Shou suddenly asked worriedly.

Obviously, that jade pendant is by no means as simple as imagined.

"It's a very safe place!" Feng Nanxi replied affirmatively.

If Feng Jingle really wanted to use that jade pendant for something, he would have already done it, so why wait until now.

Of course, Feng Nanxi trusted her adoptive father the most.

Seeing Feng Nanxi's calm expression, Ruan Shou was slightly relieved, and suddenly knelt down towards Feng Nanxi with a serious expression, held his hand and said respectfully: "The slave sees the master!"

This serious looking Ruan Shou is completely different from the lazy look he saw in Ruan's house in the south of the Yangtze River before, he is like a different person, and his whole body is a little more refreshed.

Feng Nanxi was not too surprised by Ruan Shou's action without warning, but she was slightly puzzled and said, "If you haven't seen that jade pendant, are you sure I didn't lie to you?"

Ruan Shou shook his head and said firmly: "Grandpa said, as long as you can tell the special features of the jade pendant, master, even if the jade pendant is not on your body, you are exactly the person he has been looking for. You are our master!"

She didn't expect the old housekeeper to trust her so much, which made her a little flattered.

"Get up first!" Feng Nanxi waved her hand and said.

Ruan Shou didn't stand up, but lowered his head and said, "Master, this slave has something to say!"

"Then say it!"

Looking at Ruan Shou like this, it seems that there is really something important.

"There were 36 guards from the Ruan family that my grandfather sent to protect my wife when she returned to the imperial capital. None of them were weak in martial arts. Six of them were protecting in the open, and the other 30 were protecting in secret places." Ruan Shou said seriously.

Since the Ruan family sent so many guards with extraordinary martial arts back then, how could Nan Ruan be easily killed by those so-called "robbers"!

Feng Nanxi didn't talk much, she really listened quietly.

Ruan Shou continued: "After the accident, only the six bodyguards who were clearly protecting Madam were found, and the rest of the bodyguards were all missing. The loyalty of every guard in the Ruan family can be learned from heaven and earth. Yes, unless they are all killed, if one person is still alive, he will definitely return to the Ruan Mansion desperately. The 30 people who disappeared for no reason must have had an accident. Grandpa felt very suspicious immediately, and then sent someone to go to the Ruan Mansion He searched for the place, but he still couldn't find any clues, but he never gave up looking for the truth in the past 18 years!"

"And then?" Having said this, Feng Nanxi also knew that the Ruan family must have found some traces about what happened back then.

"Among the 36 guards, there is one named Tong Yicheng, who has the best martial arts among the 36. He is still alive!" Ruan Shou raised his head and said to Feng Nanxi.

Feng Nanxi frowned slightly and said, "Since he is alive, why haven't you found him in the past 18 years?"

Ruan Shou's expression became a little angry, and he clenched his fists tightly and said, "Because his tendons were disabled, and his feet and eyes were also injured. If his heart was not naturally to the right than ordinary people, he would have already I'm dead!"

Those people are indeed vicious.

"When he was stabbed, he jumped back into the river with all his strength, so that he didn't fall into the hands of those people. At first, he also thought that he was bound to die, but maybe God thought he was dead. Damn, he was rushed down the river and was rescued by an old beggar who happened to pass by, but he was extremely weak, and the old beggar was also a miserable person, so he could only find some herbal medicine for him, so He had been raised for more than a year before he truly came back alive, but when he fell into the water, his legs and eyes were injured, his legs and feet were very inconvenient, even walking was a problem, and his eyes could only see slightly."

A person who was originally strong in martial arts has turned into a waste completely. Anyone who thinks about that kind of mood will find it a bit unacceptable.

Ruan Shou was also very sorry, "He wanted to come back very much, but he couldn't move forward at all. In addition, the old beggar died of an illness not long ago, so he had no one to rely on. His body was weak and his hands and feet were inconvenient. His eyesight is bad, and his martial arts are lost. He is afraid that those who attacked them are still nearby, so he can't ask for help at will. Besides, he has no money, so even if he really speaks, it's unlikely that anyone will be like that The old beggar was so kind, so he chose to keep silent. In the end, he had to beg for a living and became a real beggar. He also thought about begging along the way, but it was actually more difficult than he imagined. Rain and snow, with his body and bones, he can't stand it at all, let alone he can only crawl around, hey, there is no way at all!"
