I saw that the middle-aged man in brown who claimed to have lost his jade pendant whispered something to the official next to him, and the official nodded, hurriedly walked to the black-faced official, and said a few words in the ear of the black-faced official.

After hearing this, the black-faced official walked up to the boy, tightly grasped the boy's wrist holding the jade pendant with his thick palm, broke the boy's fingers hard, and took the jade pendant in his hand.

The boy twisted his thin body desperately and shouted, "This is my jade pendant, it's mine!

The black-faced official almost ignored him, took the jade pendant, didn't look at it, and said disdainfully: "Such a large piece of high-quality mutton fat jade, worth at least a few thousand taels of silver, how can it be that you two are called Huazi, don't quibble, plug their mouths and take them away!"

The black-faced official walked to the brown-clothed man with the jade pendant, nodded and said, "Shopkeeper Hu, your jade pendant will be returned to its original owner." As he spoke, he offered the jade pendant with both hands.

"Wait!" Lin Wan's voice was not loud, but it was enough for everyone present to hear it.

The black-faced official was an eleven or twelve-year-old official lady, dressed exquisitely and with an extraordinary bearing. I couldn't tell which lady it was for a while, and I didn't dare to offend.

Lin Wan smiled slightly, and said lightly: "The official is really quick to handle the case, and he can determine the ownership of this jade pendant in one bite just by his identity and status." Anyone could hear the ridicule in Lin Wan's words, and the people around him began to talk about it, and Lin Wan then asked, "I don't know if you can let me see that jade pendant?"

The black-faced official listened to Lin Wan's words, his face was a little ugly, he hesitated slightly, and asked, "Dare to ask what Miss is called?"

Lin Wan smiled but didn't answer, and the green willow replied: "Our young lady is the seventh miss of Lin Xiangfu!"

When the black-faced official heard this, he was a little in a dilemma, and turned his eyes to look at the shopkeeper Hu, who was also annoyed in his heart, how could he be so unlucky and meet a nosyman.

The black-faced official almost hesitated, but still held the jade pendant in front of Lin Wan with both hands and said, "Of course you can, please Miss Lin Qi take a look." ”

Lin Wan took the jade pendant, looked at it carefully, looked at the shopkeeper Hu with a sharp gaze, and asked: "Shopkeeper Hu, you said that this jade pendant is yours, what proof do you have? You said, it was stolen by this child, when and where was it stolen? What is the pattern on the front of the jade pendant, and what words are engraved on the back? How do you conclude that this jade pendant is yours? Who gave you the courage to beat and snatch people on the street?" Lin Wan quickly asked a series of questions, aggressive.

Shopkeeper Hu bowed slightly, sweating on his head, and secretly said in his heart that it was not good, although he had seen this jade pendant, but he did not look at it carefully, and wanted to take it over to confirm, but the child held the jade pendant firmly in his hand, where could he tell what patterns were on the jade pendant? Now it doesn't seem like it anymore...... "The more he spoke, the lower he became, which showed that his heart was empty.

The discussion of the surrounding people became louder, some accused the shopkeeper Hu, some blamed the official, some praised Miss Lin Qi for her smartness, beauty and righteousness, and more insiders revealed the identity of the shopkeeper Hu: "This is the shopkeeper Hu of Changxinglou, I have seen him." I didn't expect it......."

Lin Wan snorted coldly and sneered: "Shopkeeper Hu, don't you take a closer look?

Seeing that Lin Wan was pressing step by step, Shopkeeper Hu calmed down and quibbled: "Because Miss Lin Qi just said that there are words and patterns on this jade pendant, and there is no one on the villain's jade pendant, the villain concludes that this jade pendant should not be a villain." ”

Lin Wan nodded and said, "Then Miss Ben will return this jade pendant to its original owner, can you agree?"

Shopkeeper Hu nodded again and again: "It should be returned, it should be returned." ”

Lin Wan walked to the boy's side, and saw that the official was still holding the arms of the two children, but the two children were no longer struggling, and they all looked at Lin Wan with wide eyes.

Lin Wan turned his head and glanced at the black-faced official, who immediately understood, and said to the two subordinates: "It turned out that it was all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, let these two children go." ”

The two officials let go of the child, and Lin Wan sent the jade pendant in his hand to the boy, and said with a smile: "Put away your things, don't let others see them." When the onlookers heard this, they laughed again.

The boy hurriedly retrieved the jade pendant and stuffed it into his arms, bent down to Lin Wan and saluted, "Thank you!" After speaking, he ran to his sister's side, hugged his sister with both hands, and stared at his big black eyes angrily and fearfully at the shopkeeper and the official errand.

Lin Wan didn't intend to let go of the shopkeeper Hu in Changxinglou, and the black-faced official who was black and white, turned to the shopkeeper Hu and asked, "Shopkeeper Hu, when and where did you lose your jade pendant?" so that the official can also help you find it." ”

Shopkeeper Hu secretly complained and said, "If you go back to Miss Seven, I don't know where I lost it, so I won't bother the officials." ”

Lin Wan smiled slightly, and continued to ask: "Then may I ask Shopkeeper Hu, when and where did you buy your jade pendant? Who can prove that you once had such a jade pendant?" Lin Wan paused slightly, and said sharply: "If you can't tell the whereabouts of the jade pendant, and you can't tell the origin of the jade pendant, then Miss Ben will report to Lord Wu of the Kyoto Prefecture to arrest people for the crime of snatching and hurting people." ”

Shopkeeper Hu lowered his head, his body began to tremble, and he stammered: "This ...... This jade pendant is...... It was a noble person who sent ...... I sent it. ”

Lin Wan nodded, and said with a slight smile: "Who sent it?"

Shopkeeper Hu was heartbroken, and said, "It's His Royal Highness the Prince!" After speaking, he peeked at Lin Wan.

When Lin Wan heard this, she was secretly amused in her heart, but her face showed embarrassment. When the surrounding people saw that the prince was involved, they all shut up and didn't dare to talk about it anymore.

Suddenly, a magnetic and gentle male voice sounded leisurely: "So, why don't you ask the prince to confirm it." ”

Lin Wan turned his head to look, and saw a slender man, dressed in white, who looked like Pan An, standing at the end of the crowd, the man was shaking a folding fan in his hand, and his black hair was untied, naturally hanging down on his chest and draped over his shoulders.

The beauty of this man made Lin Wan marvel in her heart, and she didn't know how to deal with it for a while. Did you really call the prince to ask?

Just as he was questioning, two teams of sergeants appeared at the mouth of the alley, quickly passing through the crowd and lining up on both sides of the alley, and then two figures, one purple and one black, appeared at the mouth of the alley, walking slowly.

It was the crown prince Zhou Tianhong who was dressed in purple, still with a gentle and friendly image, and walked with a smile. Wearing black light armor was Zhou Tianqi, frowning and looking cold, like a young general.

Zhou Tianhong walked to the man in white, looked at the situation in the field, and saw that Hu Heng, the shopkeeper of Changxing Building, was also there, he had some doubts in his heart, smiled slightly, and said to the man in white: "Why did Brother Ximen come here, let this palace be easy to find." ”
