The courtyard is deep in spring

Chapter 9

Ye Zhaoqing's face turned pale, and he took a step back immediately!
At this time, she didn't dare to mention the jade pendant anymore.

But she will never let go of what belongs to her easily!

"Your Highness, this is in the Jokhang Temple, and we are here to pray for the emperor. If we see blood, it will be bad, right?" Murong Jin cast a glance at Ye Zhaoqing, and suddenly persuaded him.

Li Yu was taken aback when he heard this: "Murong! I didn't expect you to turn your elbows out! Help her talk! You forgot who was your classmate from childhood! You forgot that I helped you so many times... "

After hearing this, Murong Jin couldn't help but have black lines on his face: "Your Highness! I'm just discussing the facts! What are you talking about?"

"I don't care! Anyway, I can't easily spare her today!" Li Yu snorted coldly.

Murong Jin turned her head and glanced at Ye Zhaoqing, seeing that she was stunned, she sighed and said: "Your Highness, you have already snatched her jade pendant, and she has also promised that she will never tell anything about what she saw today. Why do you have to do things so badly? Behind her, there is Ning Guohou, isn't there?"

Hearing him mention Ningguo Marquis Yechen, Li Yu's expression immediately turned serious.

Seeing that his expression had softened, Murong Jin immediately persuaded him persistently: "Your Highness, it is really inappropriate to see blood in the Jokhang Temple."

After hearing this, Li Yu turned his head and took a deep look at Ye Zhaoqing.

Under the moonlight, the girl was leaning against the big tree, listening to them calmly, without ridicule, and without any intention of running away, her eyes looked a little lonely.

In memory, few women are so calm when facing him.

Seeing that trace of loneliness, Li Yu didn't know why, and suddenly felt a stabbing pain in his heart, and he said without thinking: "Okay! I will give you some face, His Highness spared her! Don't pursue it anymore!"

"Thank you, Your Highness, and thank you, Third Young Master." After hearing this, Ye Zhaoqing hurriedly took a step forward, and saluted the two of them.

With this speech, the loneliness just now disappeared.

Li Yu also came to his senses. Thinking of what he said just now, his face flushed suddenly, and he said fiercely to Ye Zhaoqing: "Since His Highness has already spared you, why don't you go away?"

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Ye Zhaoqing saluted again, glanced at Murong Jin, turned around and walked out quickly.

"Hey, why is she walking so fast... His Highness is telling you to get out!" Li Yu thought that Ye Zhaoqing was going to beg him to say a few more words, but he didn't expect him to leave so quickly, and his eyes immediately brightened. Feel a little displeased.

Murong Jin found it funny when he saw it. He glanced at Li Yu, his eyes fell on the jade pendant in his hand, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, this jade pendant is indeed very ordinary, but it may have something different from this Miss Ye. What is an inseparable secret, why not give it to me, Your Highness?"

"For you?" Li Yu turned around and looked at Murong Jin suspiciously after hearing this.

Murong Jin was slightly uncomfortable being looked at by him, coughed twice, and said: "This Miss Ye is a bit weird, maybe I can find out something from this jade pendant, don't worry, Your Highness, I just I want to investigate it, but I definitely don't mean to take it as my own."

"You just want to keep it for yourself. Based on our relationship, can I not give it to you?" Li Yu smiled slightly after hearing this, stretched out his hand, and threw the jade pendant in his hand to Murong Jin: "Here You!" After saying that, he put his hands behind his back and swaggered out of the courtyard: "Let's go! Go back to sleep!"

Murong Jin stretched out his hand and let the jade pendant fall firmly into his palm. A cool and warm feeling came over him. He couldn't help but lowered his head to look, but saw that it was a round jade pendant the size of the palm of his hand. Body suffused with quiet purple light.

"Carved from purple jade?" Murong Jin couldn't help being taken aback: "This is unusual!"

Not only is it unusual, just by the touch, one can tell that this jade pendant is definitely made of high-quality purple jade. In the Great Zhou Dynasty, only people in the royal family are eligible to wear this kind of jade pendant.

That Miss Ye is really not simple...

A trace of seriousness appeared in Murong Jin's eyes immediately.He turned his head and took a deep look at Ye Zhaoqing's leaving back.

"Damn it! I didn't check for a while, and I took advantage of that stinky girl!" At this moment, Li Yu, who was walking in front, suddenly gritted his teeth.

It seems that his anger towards Ye Zhaoqing is not easily dispelled.

Murong Jin looked at him helplessly, put away the jade pendant, and followed.

……

Ye Zhaoqing ran back to her yard in a panic, but fortunately, she didn't bump into anyone on the way. Mrs. Ye wished she could die quietly, and besides Ling'er, she didn't arrange anyone else to serve her. On the contrary, it was convenient for her, and Ye Zhaoqing didn't disturb anyone all the way back to the bedroom.

Only now did she let out a long sigh.Looking down at the empty palm, thinking of the touch of the jade pendant on her hand, a trace of regret welled up in her heart.

If she had known that Li Yu would follow in secret, she wouldn't have dug out the jade pendant so eagerly...

But it is useless to regret.

"Lin'er, big sister is useless and can't protect the only thing you have in this world, but don't worry, big sister will find a way to get it back, no matter what the price is..."

In the darkness, Ye Zhaoqing's murmured voice suddenly sounded, with a sense of determination in his tone.

In the early morning of the second day, Ye Zhaoqing was still asleep when someone shook him awake.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Linger's excited eyes.

"Miss! Great! You don't have to suffer anymore!"

"What?" Hearing this, Ye Zhaoqing raised his head and glanced at Ling'er for some reason, a little confused.

Ling'er coughed lightly, and said excitedly: "My good lady, don't you know? The second lady has also come to the temple!"

Second Miss?Her sister?What is she here for?
There was a momentary short circuit in Ye Zhaoqing's mind, but soon, she put away the surprise on her face, and said nonchalantly, "Why did she go up the mountain suddenly? It's only early in the morning...she went up the mountain overnight?" Speaking of which, There was a hint of surprise on her face.

Ling'er nodded, and said, "Yes! The slaves are also very surprised!"

Ye Zhaoqing sat there blankly for a while, and then asked: "Ling'er, do I want to meet her?"

"Then we have to wait a while, now the old lady is asking the second lady for a question!" Ling'er said while picking up the clothes from the bedside and putting them on Ye Zhaoqing.The face is full of excitement.

Ye Zhaoqing frowned when she heard the words, but nodded and said: "Okay." After speaking, she glanced at Ling'er suspiciously, and asked, "Why are you so happy?"

"Miss, aren't you happy?" Ling'er continued to smile, and said in a brisk tone: "Every time as long as the second miss is here, for her sake, the old lady will not always make things difficult for you, miss, You can also rest well, Ling'er is happy for you!"

It turned out to be the case.

Ye Zhaoqing raised his lips to reveal a slight smile, and said calmly: "Really? Then I really have to thank my sister."

The two cleaned up, had breakfast, and waited for a while before getting up and going to Mrs. Ye's yard.
