Chapter 134: The Mystery of the Jade Pendant

(ps: Liuli has something to do temporarily, and the second is a little late, forgive me, forgive me...... )

Li Ke and the others came out of the Xuanzheng Palace, his brows were furrowed very tightly, and he was very concerned about his father's reluctance to re-canonize Melodious. Melodious also hung her head, but she was thinking about something else.

Melodious suddenly stopped, frowned, and said, "Fox Li, do you need to explain the matter between Xiao Ruolan and Tong Xue!" ”

Li Ke stopped, the afterglow of the setting sun crossed a golden halo on him, he lowered his eyelids and looked at the melodious, the corners of his mouth were curved in a moderate arc, and said, "Didn't you see the events of that day with your own eyes?" Why do you come to ask me again, you only believe that your eyes are good! ”

When he finished speaking, he strode forward again, and Melodious hurriedly trotted after him, dragging his arm and starting to be coquettish. "I admit that I didn't trust you enough before, but I can't complain about me, how would you feel if I hugged you left and right on the couch with two men?"

"Then you can try!"

The gloomy voice sounded above his head, and he shrunk his neck melodiously, if the roles were reversed, I am afraid that he would slash the two men with a sword first, and then come to listen to her explanation!

But why did he keep changing the subject and explaining to her what was so difficult?

Melodious and unrelentingly asked: "You said in the palace that you have no husband and wife with Xiao Ruolan, what about Tong Xue?" Tong Xue looked aggrieved that day, and said that you came hard! ”

Li Ke stopped again, touched the top of his melodious head, and sighed: "The girl with no conscience really tramples on the king's heart for you!" After thinking for a moment, he said: "That **** was poisoned, although I don't remember what happened, but I can't move, how can I do anything?" Most of them are Tong Xue lying! ”

Melodious was happy in his heart, but he pretended to be calm, pouted and said, "Well, that's really a pity!" ”

Li Ke saw that Melodious Yang looked proud at this time, pinched her face, smiled heartily, and said, "Well, this king thinks the same way!" ”

He rarely laughs like this, and usually at most the corners of his lips are slightly raised, and he looks at the bright smile in front of him melodiously, and his heart is suddenly warm. The three worlds are sunny and sunny in exchange for joys and sorrows, I don't know how many lifetimes she cultivated to let them meet, now for her, money and status are external things, what she wants is happiness, I'm messing around, he's laughing, and I'm just living a warm life from now on.

The two talked and laughed all the way, and only returned to the mansion when it was dark, only to see two figures, one large and one small, wandering outside the mansion gate, melodiously recognizing that they were the mother and son they saw in the courtyard that day.

The woman blessed her body and said, "Your Highness is blessed!" She stood up and swept her eyes towards Melodious, smiled and nodded.

Melodious chin head, these days one thing after another, although she forgot to ask Li Ke about the origin of this woman, but for some reason, she felt that this woman was not like an ordinary maid.

Li Ke ordered him not to say the identity of the "master", she understood what she meant, most likely because she was afraid that she would run away halfway. But isn't it strange why the identity of the woman can't be said?

The woman said: "The slave maid learned that His Royal Highness had returned to Beijing and came to defect, and he had been living in the courtyard for a month, and he knew that His Royal Highness had been entangled in many affairs in recent days and had no time to pay attention to the slave and maid, but the situation was urgent, and the slave and maid really couldn't wait. ”

After the woman finished speaking, she took out a piece of jade pendant in her arms, the jade was crystal clear, although the night was deep, but the melodious glance knew that it was the thing of Murong Villa, this kind of jade pendant villa Everyone will have a piece, which is engraved with a unique totem and name, symbolizing status.

Li Ke hurriedly took the jade pendant and took a closer look, his eyes were half-narrowed, and his face became cold. "Where did you come from this jade pendant?"

After a pause, he said, "Let's go into the mansion." Then he strode towards the house, and Melodious hurriedly followed behind with the mother and son.

As soon as I arrived at the door of the front hall, I saw Xiao Ruolan kneeling straight, she was still sobbing, her beautiful face looked a little puffy, and when she saw Li Ke coming, she hurriedly crawled over, tugging on the hem of his clothes and crying: "Your Highness, Ruolan knows that her father will fall into this situation if she collaborates with the enemy and betrays the country, and she can't complain about the saint and even more so your Highness, but Ruolan now has no father, no home, and there is no place for her to leave the Wu Palace, can you not drive Ruolan away." ”

Seeing Xiao Ruolan's appearance, Melodious was a little sad. In ancient times, it was admired that women were virtuous if they were not talented, and a woman could not survive if she had no attachment, and those girls were the best examples. She hurriedly stepped forward and Xiao Ruolan helped her up, and said, "Your Highness, just leave her behind." ”

Li Ke had lingering palpitations about what Xiao Ruolan had done before, and he couldn't stand the difference between him and Melodious. He wanted to refuse, but looking at Melodious and urgent, he couldn't say the words after all, just because he didn't want Melodious to think that he was too ruthless.

"I have something to confront you at this time, so let's come in together!" Although Li Ke didn't agree, he acquiesced to Xiao Ruolan's matter, and after he finished speaking, he brushed his hands and entered the hall.

The woman in the courtyard looked at the people in the hall, she hesitated for a while, pursed her lips, and said: "The slave maid married someone else when she left the house a few years ago, although the life was hard, but Lu Lang was very good to the slave maid, he and his sister-in-law Lu Rong often used their fists and feet to earn some money to fill the family, six years ago, because the slave and maid were in urgent need of silver, he and his sister-in-law took over the murderous business, that is, to kidnap Princess Wu. ”

Li Ke's cold eyes flickered, and Xiao Ruolan immediately lowered her head. The woman said slowly: "Murong Villa once had a favor with Lu Lang's family, and the sister-in-law Lu Rong was even more devoted to the third prince of Murong. But the fire was not an accident, it was deliberately set on fire. ”

Xiao Ruolan was a little frightened, and hurriedly said: "That fire was definitely not set by Ruolan, Ruolan just sent someone to rob people, but she never had the intention of killing." ”

The woman nodded, and said, "She really didn't set the fire, because the person who set the fire is the owner of this jade pendant." ”

Melodious startled, he hurriedly looked at the jade pendant in Li Ke's hand, and there was a small character engraved in the middle of this jade pendant totem.

Li Kemo rubbed the jade pendant and asked, "How did you know, and where did this jade pendant come from?" ”

The woman replied: "My sister-in-law died tragically, and Lu Lang told the slave and maid about the events of that day, and he had already suspected the strangeness of the fire, and afterwards he checked the fire and found this jade pendant next to the ruins. He stayed in Murong Villa for many years, how could he not know who owned this jade pendant? ”

Melodious frowned, and hurriedly asked, "Then why didn't he tell the third prince about it when he went to find it?" ”

Li Ke was a little surprised, Melodious didn't reveal a word, he frowned and said, "You already knew?" ”

Melodious smiled and said, "His sister once saved my life, and I'm afraid that if I talk about it, my brother will be implicated because of this." ”

The woman sighed and said, "But Lu Lang still can't escape the harm after all!" She wiped her tears and said, "Lu Lang was not sure if it was her when he picked up the jade pendant, and they were old acquaintances, so they didn't dare to talk nonsense." Later, he went to confront him, and before leaving, he gave the jade pendant to the slave maid, and he said that if he could not return, he would give this jade pendant to His Highness, who would have thought that he really could not come back. At that time, His Royal Highness was in Anzhou, and the child was seriously ill, and the slave had no choice but to pawn the jade pendant first, and it was not until the year before that he saved enough silver taels to redeem it. ”

Melodious sigh, this family is tired of her after all, if she hadn't come to ancient times, they wouldn't have ended up like this. looked at the jade pendant and said suspiciously: "Rui? Who exactly? ”

Li Ke's face was even colder. "The king knows." (To be continued.) )
