Chapter 186 The Lost Jade Pendant

Chu Lichen's expression was as usual, but he just looked at the screen behind him lightly.

"Master Su, this?" Lu Dewen asked nervously.

Chu Lichen turned and walked towards the screen, and saw Qiao Mo who was squatting on the ground behind to pick up the debris.

Qiao Mo looked up and saw that his expression was not as good as before.

She didn't expect that after a few days, he still wanted to deal with her father.

"Send Madam back to rest." Chu Lichen looked at her with deep eyes, and finally said in a deep voice.

"I..." Qiao Mo pursed her lips slightly under the veil, wanting to say something, but thinking of Lu Dewen outside, she had to shut up first.

Qiao Mo passed Chu Lichen and whispered in his ear, "Don't touch my father."

This is her only request to Chu Lichen.

Chu Lichen stretched out his hand to hold her wrist, and said in a low voice, "Mo'er, you care too much." Whether it's Yue'er or Qiao Xuyang, it's not good for her to care too much.

Qiao Mo looked up at him. At the beginning, she thought about drawing a line with her father, but the reality deviated from her, which she never thought of.

After Qiao Mo left, Chu Lichen looked at her back, but he had already thought about it.

After Chu Lichen went out, looking at Lu Dewen who was still on guard, Chu Lichen said lightly: "Madam's hands are slippery, Master Lu doesn't need to worry about it."

"So it's Madam." Lu Dewen wiped his sweat, as if he was relieved a lot, but he was also curious about who is this man's wife?

"The supply of grain and grass in Lingyan Pavilion is directly handed over to the government. As for how the government distributes it, it is not up to Lingyan Pavilion." Chu Lichen said calmly.

"What if Lingyan Pavilion no longer provides food and grass for the imperial court?" A trace of cruelty flashed in Lu Dewen's eyes, and he could see his determination to get rid of Qiao Xuyang.

"General Qiao is the great general of Zhenyuan, why does Master Lu mean to make things difficult for him?" Chu Lichen asked.

"Hmph... what kind of general is he, but a hypocrite." Lu Dewen said angrily, as if he had a deep hatred with Qiao Xuyang.

Chu Lichen tasted the three words he said, slightly hooked his lips, but said nothing.

Under the plum blossom tree, Qiao Mo looked up. Based on her understanding of Chu Lichen, he would definitely use this opportunity to deal with her father.

"It's so annoying." Qiao Mo slapped the plum tree vigorously, shaking off countless petals.

Li Luo came out from one side, stood behind Qiao Mo and watched her get angry alone, the corners of her mouth slightly curled up, with a bit of self-evident doting.

"Chu Lichen, you are a pig." Qiao Mo said, and kicked on the tree again, she couldn't just ignore her father, "Ai Yao——" Qiao Mo kicked her feet sorely, and couldn't help crying With a sound.

A plum tree was completely let go after being abused for a while.

Qiao Mo raised her head and sighed after getting angry, but what should she do?

Annoyed, Qiao Mo wanted to turn her head, but unexpectedly met Li Luo.

Qiao Mo was startled, couldn't help but patted her chest, and said in a low voice, "Why are you here?" After all, she still had to treat Chu Lichen's elders politely.

"What's wrong with you? Are you in a bad mood?" Li Luo asked softly, looking at Qiao Mo with a greedy expression, as if she couldn't get enough of her.

"It's okay!" Qiao Mo lowered her head and kicked the plum petals on the ground. This is Chu Lichen's person, so she wouldn't be so stupid as to tell her what she was thinking.

Li Luo looked at her deeply, and could even see her defense against him.

"Did Chen'er do something that made you unhappy?" Li Luo asked with concern.

Qiao Mo gave her a smile that was uglier than crying. Chu Lichen had never done anything to make him happy, except to annoy her.

"My father offended him, and now he's going to deal with my father." Qiao Mo gritted her teeth angrily and said, really not caring about her at all.

"Your father?" Li Luo paused slightly, then said in a low voice, "Qiao Xuyang?"

When Qiao Xuyang was mentioned, Liluo's gaze was a little different, but it was a pity that Qiao Mo, who had been bowing his head and annoyed, didn't see it.

"Yes, I..."

"Mo'er."

Before Qiao Mo could speak, Chu Lichen had arrived. Qiao Mo raised her head and rolled her eyes, then turned and left.

Chu Lichen walked to Li Luo's side, bowed slightly to greet him: "Aunt."

Li Luo nodded slightly, watching Qiao Mo leave.

"You know?" Li Luo said in a deep voice.

"Why doesn't my aunt ever say anything?" Chu Lichen said in a low voice, Li Luo's question now has already explained it, she already knew it.

"There's no need to mention the past." Li Luo looked back at the direction Qiao Mo left, "He's not wrong." As she spoke, scars gradually appeared in her eyes.

"Aunt." Chu Lichen frowned.

"Lu Dewen came to you now, it's a good opportunity for you to get rid of him, don't make troubles." Li Luo said, but when he mentioned Lu Dewen, there was hatred in his eyes.

Qiao Mo ran all the way to the gazebo, lying on the railing and looking at the sea below.

She can guarantee that even if she says she wants to jump, Chu Lichen will definitely watch her jump.

When Chu Lichen followed, he saw Qiao Mo upset alone in the gazebo. Her attitude towards Qiao Xuyang changed beyond his expectation.

It seemed that after Concubine Lian's accident, her attitude towards Qiao Xuyang changed, but he didn't see through what happened between them.

Chu Lichen walked to Qiao Mo's side and put one hand on her shoulder: "Mo'er, can't you be your princess?"

Qiao Mo looked back at him, "If I killed the old emperor, would you be happy?"

"Stop talking nonsense." Chu Lichen's face turned cold, and he said angrily.

"You don't let me say anything, and you still want to kill my father." Qiao Mo stood directly on the stool, only in this way could she find a little confidence to look directly at him.

"These things have nothing to do with you." Chu Lichen's face became even more ugly. He didn't want Qiao Mo to get involved more.

"Now that it has nothing to do with me, why did you involve me in the first place?" Qiao Mo growled angrily. She is a human being and not a thing, so it is impossible for her to just pull away.

The two looked at each other, with the mountain wind blowing by their ears, carrying a biting chill.

Chu Lichen's gaze was deep, while Qiao Mo's expression was determined, and no one would take a step back.

"Mo'er, this king said that you care too much, which is not good for you." Chu Lichen said in a deep voice, "This king promises that you, Yue'er, will have no worries in your life, but it doesn't mean that you can do nothing for you anymore." Qiao Xuyang begged for mercy."

"I didn't plead for my father, I just hope you find out everything before doing this." Qiao Mo continued to growl in a low voice, as if her patience was completely exhausted at this moment.

"I will investigate the one who should be investigated, but the price he should pay, I will not stop here." Chu Lichen said, turned and left here.

Qiao Mo watched him leave angrily, this man was simply reckless.

Watching Chu Lichen leave, Qiao Mo took several deep breaths to calm down her thoughts, so that she could think of a way to save her father.

Qiao Mo repeatedly told herself to calm down, her brain spinning rapidly.

Chu Lichen wanted to attack her father, and now it seemed that what he cared about was not the reason but the result.

Because her father bullied her mother.

Qiao Mo thought, pressing her lips tightly, she must find out what happened back then.

Qiao Mo took several deep breaths, and did not leave the gazebo until her emotions really calmed down.

"Ah—" Qiao Mo turned around and directly touched the table. She clutched the painful place, tears streaming out.

It's just that people sprained their ankles when walking on flat roads. Qiao Mo sucked her nose, rubbed the place where she had recovered, and was about to get up when the jade pendant around her waist suddenly slipped off.

Qiao Mo was startled, and looked down at the jade pendant that fell to the ground.

This was given to her by Emperor Xuan, but her father said that there are some things not to be investigated, but Emperor Xuan insisted on letting her figure it out by herself.

Qiao Mo rubbed her waist, bent down and picked up the jade pendant.

The jade pendant was still green all over, and it was the first time for Qiao Mo to watch it seriously.

The palace, Yupei, her father, her mother, and Emperor Xuan.

Qiao Mo pursed her lips slightly, it seemed that her father was really hiding something.

"Madam, my lord asked me to take you back." Ye suddenly appeared and said.

"Ah..." Qiao Mo, who was turning around to think about something, was frightened, and suddenly threw the jade pendant out of her hand, and it slid to the edge of the gazebo. When Qiao Mo hurried to pick it up, it slipped down.

"Jade pendant." Qiao Mo cried out, watching the jade pendant fall down the mountain.

Qiao Mo looked around and eagerly looked for the way down the mountain. Her jade pendant was her only way out.

"Ma'am." Ye looked at the anxious Qiao Mo, and couldn't help shouting.

"How do I get down from here?" Qiao Mo didn't have time to settle the score for him, and now she just wanted to get the jade pendant back.

Ye pointed to the slanted peak on one side, "But..."

Qiao Mo ran over before he finished speaking.

"Madam can't go, the mountain road over there is rough, it's not possible..." Ye called, Qiao Mo had already run over, Ye could only follow quickly, Madam had an accident, and he didn't have to live.

Chu Lichen was reading in the study, listening to Uncle Xiao talk about what happened after Lu Dewen left.But his eyes remained fixed in one place, and he came back just like that, and he didn't know if the woman had come back.

"My lord." Wu Shuang suddenly pushed the door open and came in, and after asking Uncle Xiao to greet him, he said, "Madam has come down from Yuluan Peak."

"What?" Chu Lichen stood up abruptly, brought down the cup on the table, the tea spilled, and made a slight sound as it dripped on the ground.

Before Wushuang and Uncle Xiao could react, Chu Lichen had already left the room.

Uncle Xiao shook his head helplessly: "My lord is no longer the same lord as before."

Wushuang bowed her head and said nothing, obviously agreeing with Uncle Xiao's words.

Chu Lichen rushed all the way to the pavilion, and there was no sign of anyone.

Chu Lichen cursed in a low voice, looking at the torrential river below the mountain, there were many dangers at the foot of Fengluan Mountain, the woman simply wanted to die, and Ye should be punished, all this will be discussed after he captures the two of them back.
