I couldn't help but sweat, there is a piece of this but I have it, and I don't know who will get the other piece, whether it will be an old man, whether it will be a disabled person, if it is a girl or something, then it is okay to say. With apprehension, I walked to the front of the crowd, and it didn't take long for the boss to come out and speak: "Okay, the bun has been robbed by you, and I believe that the jade pendant has also been found, so now there are two people who have asked to get the jade pendant, come forward." ”

After saying this, the crowd began to boil, but no one stepped forward, could it be that person like me, hid the jade pendant, and didn't want to be known. It's better if neither of them shows up than if one person shows up and the other doesn't.

The man shouted again, but still no one showed up, and slowly there were boos in the crowd, and slowly the crowd dispersed.

"Wan'er, you say, whose hands is the jade pendant in? Why didn't they show up? I wanted it but I couldn't. ”

"Maybe they didn't show up because they had their own considerations!" When I explained it to Xu Zijie, my heart was still very empty.

When the crowd dispersed, I saw Shangguan Qi, Xiahou Fei and Yunyun, so I wanted to walk over and make peace with them, but after I walked about 10 steps, I felt that the sound stone jade pendant in the space was constantly vibrating and making sounds, the person who got another piece of jade must be nearby, my jade is like this, I believe that his jade is the same as me, what kind of material is this jade, it can penetrate the space and have a sense.

I hurriedly looked around, trying to find the person, but the pedestrian was in a hurry, without the slightest clue, and I didn't even know whether the other party was a man or a woman, Xu Zijie next to me saw my strangeness and asked, "What's wrong, is there something wrong?" ”

"No, it's fine."

We continue to get closer to everyone, as we get closer, the stronger the vibration, is it one of our group is the other, no! I stared at the expressions on everyone's faces, afraid that I had missed something. Yunyun, Han Jun, Li Yue, Shangguan Qi, Zhao family sisters and others I looked at them one by one, but they all looked as usual, there was no abnormality, when I looked at Xiahou Fei, although his face was as usual, but his hands were behind his back, there was something strange.

I deliberately walked to his side, the closer I got to him, the louder the vibration of the ringing stone, the louder the sound, and the other jade pendant was in Xiahou Fei's hand. I looked at him in amazement, and he looked at me with surprise. I thought everyone could hear the sound of the jade pendant, but I didn't expect that only the person holding the jade pendant could hear it, and I was relieved to see that everyone didn't react. After the lantern dissipated, Xiahou Fei and I kept our distance, and we didn't talk to each other, as if we were avoiding each other. After that, everyone returned to the academy one after another, and the Zhao sisters found a new target and shifted their positions. The first one to go was Xiahou Fei, he left overnight, although I heard the movement, but I pretended not to know, because at this time, I didn't know what to say to him. Xu Zijie decided to stay here and continue to help Aunt Ye get needles, while Shangguan Qi and I went all the way to Shangguan Qi's house first, although I don't know why, he took the initiative to invite me, but this is fine, so that I have the opportunity to go to my father's house to see, maybe I can find clues about what happened back then.

Along the way, I talked and laughed with Shangguan Qi, but I also got along well, Shangguan Qi has to get along for a long time to really understand him, in fact, he is not as cold as he seems, very much like the big brother next door, maybe it is his other identity, which makes him make us look so indifferent! I really didn't expect him to be an adjutant general at such a young age, very similar to his father.

We traveled for 5 days, and finally came to the capital of Meng, Qiancheng. It's like Xi'an in ancient China, a typical northwest city, where the wind blows a little harder, and it will bring up gusts of yellow sand.

"The wind and sand here will be bigger, are you okay?" Shangguan Qi asked with concern.

"It's fine."

"I'll take you to my house first, and then I'll have to go to the palace."

"It's okay, if you're in a hurry, you can get busy first."

"Don't hurry, at least I'll settle you down, let's go, we'll be there ahead." Entering the city gate, I walked to the center for 10 minutes, and arrived at a house, Shangguan Mansion, this house is Shangguan Mansion? It seems that the area is not large, and it stands to reason that the Shangguan family has been in existence for hundreds of years, so it can't be such a small house!

"What's wrong?" Shangguan Qi saw me stop and stare at the house, and asked me curiously.

"This is Shangguan Mansion?" I asked, confused.

"What's wrong?" Shangguan Qi looked at me puzzled.

"You Shangguan family, there should be a lot of people, can you live in this house?" I pointed to the house.

"Hehe, did I tell you, is this the ancestral home of our Shangguan family?" Shangguan Qi looked at me with a smile.

"I see, this is your mansion."

"Let's go! Go in and have a look, and I'll take you to the ancestral house tomorrow. Shangguan Qi led me into his mansion. A little porter came out of the house and led the two of us to the back door. The more I went inside, I found that his mansion was really clean, to be precise, it was simple, except for some basic tables, chairs, and cabinets, it was difficult to see any furnishings, and it could be seen that he was rarely in the mansion, but it was neat and tidy.

"Don't you think it's very simple?" Shangguan Qi asked as if he had seen through my thoughts.

"Yes, you are also a general! It's too simple in this house! The emperor should have rewarded you with something, why didn't you see it. I looked left and right.

"I've put them in the storeroom." Shangguan said indifferently.

I think about it, too, the dignified official family, I haven't seen anything. "By the way, don't you still want to enter the palace? Let's get busy first! ”

"Okay, I'll let Ya'er lead you there." As soon as Shangguan Qi finished speaking, he saw a maid walking out of the inner courtyard behind him.

"Young Master."

"Ya'er, take Miss Wang to settle down, I want to go to the palace."

"Yes, young master, Miss Wang, please come with me." Ya'er made a gesture of please, although the tone was very respectful, but there was a feeling in my bones that my status was not lower than anyone else, and I was really a maid from a big family.

"Miss Ya'er, how long have you been in Shangguan Mansion, I think Shangguan Qi values you very much!"

"Miss Wang, just call me Ya'er, I grew up in Shangguan Mansion since I was a child, as for the young master you said values me, I don't think so, I'm just doing my part."

"Ya'er, then to put it this way, you have known your young master since you were a child."

"Yes."

"Ya'er, I'm new here, and I don't understand a lot of things, so I have to rely on you to mention a little more, I hope you can accept this." I took out a few bottles of the latest product from the package and handed it to Yan'er.

There was a hint of surprise in Ya'er's originally calm and turbulent eyes, but she quickly regained her calmness, "Miss Wang, as soon as you make a move, it is such a big stroke, this self-pleasing person, as far as I know, is not available to ordinary people in the Shang Kingdom, and Miss Wang gave me a new product this time, why does Miss Wang need me to mention it!" Although Ya'er said that she rejected me, she accepted it honestly.

"Miss Ya'er said with a smile, you can use it well, and I will have someone bring it to you in the future." Although she didn't say help me, I understood that she acquiesced, and who doesn't want to be pretty! So far, there are only shops in the Shang State, and Meng Guo wants to buy it here, and only the merchants bring it from the Shang State, so the price has not known how many times it has increased.

Before she left, she told me about some of the situation in Shangguan's ancestral house, and now living in Shangguan's ancestral house is the current family, that is, Shangguan Qi's uncle's family of 5 people, and Shangguan Qi's family of 4 people, Shangguan Qi's aunt's family of 2 people, Shangguan Qi's aunt's family of 6 people, Shangguan Qi's cousin's family of 5 people, and one of Shangguan Qi's aunts and grandmothers. I thought there were a lot of people at first, but Ya'er said that this was the time when there were the least people, a few years ago, those seven aunts and eight aunts all lived in Shangguan's house, and it was the original head of the family who started last year, that is, the old lady spoke, and everyone moved out one after another, as for what made the old lady not speak for so many years, but he spoke last year, Ya'er didn't say. When Ya'er went out of the door, she turned around and said, "Miss Wang, remember that after going to my house, stay away from the young master's cousin and cousin." Then he walked away.

Alas, I wanted to ask more things out of her mouth, but this Ya'er is very smart and knows what to say and what not to say, but fortunately, I know who to remind me to pay attention to, and finally the things are not given in vain, and there will be opportunities for me to take her words in the future. Put down the luggage, I went out of the guest room and walked around, and found that there were 3 or 4 servants in the house, and there were no other maids except Ya'er, this Ya'er's status must be obvious, this backyard is as simple as the front yard sees, a fake stone mountain, a small pond, a few trees and a few flowers are gone, but there is one more martial arts training ground, this martial arts training ground is quite attentive, clean ground, neat weapons, sandbags, wooden handles, everything is available. Not far from the martial arts training ground is the horse shed, I walked there, and found that Shangguan Qi's horse was vigorously courteous to the black rose, and wanted to rub the black rose with his neck, but obviously, the black rose didn't give it any affection, and directly kicked it with its hind hooves, but it was not discouraged, did not give up, and stuck to the black rose like a kraft candy. The black rose swirled around in it, digging the ground with its hooves. When he saw me coming, he immediately let out a long sound, meaning: Let me go out, I can't hold this kid, I want to go back to the space.

I walked in and patted Black Rose, "Black Rose, bear with me first!" Now I can't put you back into space, it's not on my own turf. ”

The black rose nose sneered at me, meaning: It's okay not to go back to space, at least separate me from it.

"Alright! I'm going to find someone. After that, I went to the front hall equipment and found someone to help.

Before I reached the front hall, I heard a pretty girl's voice, "Brother Shangguan, I know you're back, come out and meet Lian'er!" ”

"Miss Lian'er, the young master just came back today, and he immediately entered the palace, he is not in the mansion now, it's useless for you to shout, you go back first, and when the young master comes back, I will sue him, you have been here today, let him go to you again." Ya'er said helplessly.

"Hmph, don't use these words to perfunctory me, this trick doesn't work for me anymore." Lian'er said disdainfully.

"Miss Lian'er, what do you want me to say that you can believe! The young master is really not here, if you don't believe it, you can go to the gate of the palace and ask the guards guarding the palace gate. ”

"I'm not going, I'm just waiting for him here, he's definitely going home. If I go to the palace gate and he has already returned, then I am not in vain. ”

"Oh well! Since Miss Lian'er insists on waiting here, and Ya'er can't stop her, then please Miss Lian'er later, and I will prepare tea and pastries for you. ”

I thought to myself: This one is called Lian'er, I don't know what kind of character actually gives Ya'er such a headache, and even the tone of his speech is different. Since Ya'er didn't let her into the backyard, she definitely didn't want this Lian'er to know that there was a woman in the backyard of Shangguan's Mansion, so I didn't appear in front of Lian'er, so I followed Ya'er to the kitchen.

"Is Miss Ya'er embarrassed? Is there anything I can do to help? ”

Apparently I spoke suddenly, startling Ya'er, "Ah! It turned out to be Miss Wang. Ya'er patted the position of her heart.

"I'm sorry to scare you." I said apologetically.

"It's okay, Miss Wang, is there something wrong?"

"I originally wanted to go to the front yard to look for you, but I found that at this time, it seems that it is inconvenient for me to appear there." I looked at Ya'er and said, Ya'er only smiled and didn't speak. I continued, "My horse, please arrange it for Miss Yan'er to see if it can be separated from the other horses." ”

"Is something wrong?" Ya'er asked me puzzled.

"It's really hard for me to explain this, and I'll have to trouble Miss Ya'er."

"Don't bother, I'll go over and arrange it later."

"Is there anything I can do to help?" I gestured to the front yard.

"Miss Wang, then please be in the backyard, don't go to the front hall."

"Okay."

Ya'er prepared a plate of pastries and a pot of tea and brought it to the front yard, and I glanced at it without speaking. After a while, I heard Lian'er's moan from the front yard, "Oops, my stomach, my stomach, why does it hurt so much, no, I'm going to ......" Lian'er said a little embarrassed.

"Miss Lian'er, come with me!" Ya'er got up and led Lian'er to the latrine.

In a short period of time, this Miss Lian'er has made 5 or 6 trips to and from the toilet, her steps are becoming more and more erratic, and she has become weak even to speak.

"Miss Lian'er, it's not a way to go on like this, I think you should go back to see the doctor!" Ya'er reminded aloud.

"But Brother Shangguan hasn't come back yet." Lian'er said a little weakly.

"Miss Lian'er, go back first, and when the young master comes back, I told him that Miss Lian'er has been here, but she suddenly felt unwell and went back to see the doctor." Yael explained.

"But......" Lian'er was about to say something, but was interrupted by Ya'er's voice.

"Miss Lian'er doesn't want to, let's see the young master in her current appearance! And I have already sent someone to inform the Li family, so that they can send someone to pick you up, I believe it will be there soon. ”

Lian'er was choked by what she said, struggled for two minutes and said, "Okay! I'll go back to see the doctor first, you remember that you must tell Brother Shangguan that I have been here, but I am not comfortable and leave first, so he must go to see me. ”

"Miss Lian'er rest assured, Ya'er will definitely convey it."

In about 5 minutes or so, someone came to pick up Miss Lian'er, and I walked out from behind, "Miss Ya'er is very smart, she can solve it by herself without my help." ”

"Ya'er doesn't know what Miss Wang is talking about." As he spoke, he cleaned up the things on the tea table.

"It doesn't matter if I don't know, I'm just hungry, don't waste the pastry in your hand, I'll eat it." As he spoke, he reached for it.

"How can you let Miss Wang eat these leftover pastries, let the young master know, the slave is not easy to explain." He took a few steps back.

"Alas, I don't mind, what do you mind, as for your young master, I won't say it, if you don't say it, he won't know." As he spoke, he took two steps closer to her.

"Miss Wang, since you know everything, why do you do this!" Ya'er finally spoke up.

"Miss Ya'er, I don't mean anything else, I'm just curious. From the beginning, I planned that if you can't solve it, I'll help you take action, no matter how I say I'm also a guest, if something really happens, Shangguan Qi won't do anything to me. ”

"I did these things, so why do I need Miss Wang to do it!" Ya'er said coldly.

"Miss Ya'er, who is this Miss Lian'er? Why are you ......?"

"If Miss Wang wants to know, wait for the young master to come back and ask the young master directly! There are some things that we slaves and maids can't talk about behind our backs. Before I could finish my sentence, I was robbed of the dialogue.

I shrugged my shoulders and took out a porcelain vase from my arms and put it on the table, "Don't use those in the future, it's easy to find, this is colorless and odorless, it won't cause great harm to people, even the doctor can't find out." "Actually, I can see that Ya'er still keeps her hand, and those meals make her uncomfortable for half an hour at most, and her stomach is empty, and she will be fine. It's best that Lian'er didn't find out the reason, otherwise Ya'er would be in trouble.

I see that the time is still early, then out of the Shangguan Mansion, go around, every two streets in Qiancheng, there will be guards patrolling, it seems that the army here is very strict, Shangguan Mansion is in the center of Qiancheng to the south of the position, 3 minutes walk to the most prosperous street in Qiancheng, in addition to the people of Meng, you can also see some Hu people of the Wolf Moon Country, slightly curly hair, green eyes, tall nose bridge, burly figure, when speaking, the voice is even more deafening, it can be seen that their temperament is very straightforward.
