First, a few ladies were sent to the study where the exhibition house temporarily handled the case for Lord Bao, and asked Lord Bao to question, and Zhanzhao and the others gathered in the courtyard.

It's almost time for dinner.

Zhan Zhao entered the courtyard and looked left and right...... I saw Xiaoyu and Xiaocui holding a lot of teacups in the tray.

Zhan Zhao was a little puzzled.

Xiao Sizi and Bao Yan Pang Yu tacitly kept their mouths shut and did not mention the things that the elders of the Demon Palace had visited, and a few old men explained when they left, don't mention it to Zhan Zhao, after all, after such a big disaster and hit Pang Yu again, Zhan Zhao will be unhappy.

Seeing that Zhanzhao was still looking around like a confused cat, Bai Yutang dragged him, which means - let's talk about serious things.

"Oh." Zhan Zhao came back to his senses and asked Gongsun, "Is the medicinal jade those scented jades?" Isn't this very common? ”

Gongsun shook his head, "Some medicinal jade is called fragrant jade because it has a fragrance, but in fact, it is not a fragrant medicinal jade, and there are many medicinal jades that have no taste, and some even have a smell." ”

The crowd nodded—oh, that's it.

"I'll just say it." Zhan Zhao took out a small jade pendant from his waist, "If it's really that valuable, wouldn't the Demon Palace be rich." ”

Gongsun's eyes fell on the jade pendant, he reached out to take it and looked at it, then raised his face and asked Zhanzhao, "This...... Your heirloom, huh? ”

Zhan Zhao blinked, "No, the jade pendant used by the Demon Palace to attract the golden shell, everyone has ......"

"Heh......" Gongsun gasped, "Everyone?! ”

Bai Yutang has always known jade, and looked at Gongsun with some puzzlement, "The color and texture of this jade are just very ordinary jade, and it is not valuable." ”

Zhan Zhao also nodded.

"Wait." Gongsun asked Zhanzhao, "You said that everyone in the Demon Palace has a piece?" ”

Zhan Zhao nodded.

"How many people are there in the Demon Palace?" Gongsun asked.

"More than three hundred."

"Heh......" Gongsun took a big breath of cold air again, "Where did you get so much jade?" ”

"The Demon Palace is full of these stones, and we use them to build houses......

Before Zhan Zhao finished speaking, he saw Gongsun leaning back.

Zhao Pu hurriedly went up to catch it.

Gongsun seemed to be more agitated and had difficulty calming down.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other and looked at Gongsun in puzzlement.

Gongsun took a deep breath, grabbed the jade pendant and asked Zhanzhao, "This is a good medicinal jade, which is invaluable, and you actually use it to build a house?!" ”

Zhan Zhao also opened his mouth wide, "How valuable?" ”

Gongsun held up the small jade pendant, "One thousand taels!" ”

Zhanzhao opened his mouth wide, and the little fourth son held his face.

Unexpectedly, Gongsun also added, "Gold! ”

This time it was Zhanzhao's turn to lean back, Bai Yutang reached out to support his waist, and asked Gongsun, "Are you sure?" ”

"Absolutely!" Gongsun nodded.

"How can this thing be cured?" Zhan Zhao felt incredulous, "Oh, the old men of the Demon Palace have made a fortune." ”

Gongsun thought about it and hooked his finger at Pang Yu, who was looking curiously on the side.

Pang Yu walked over.

Gongsun took the jade pendant and asked the little fourth son to get a bowl of hot water.

The little fourth son went to get it.

Gongsun soaked the jade pendant into the bowl, and after a while, he took the jade and handed the bowl to Pang Yu.

Pang Yu looked puzzled, "What is this?" ”

"Aren't you cold? Drank it. Gongsun said.

"Isn't it?!" Pang Yu opened his mouth wide, "Has this jade pendant ever fallen to the ground?" ”

Zhan Zhao touched his chin and looked at Pang Yu.

Bao Yan pinched his nose and poured him down......

After Pang Yu finished drinking, he smashed his mouth and touched his chin to taste the taste, "It's not difficult to drink, it's fragrant." ”

Speaking of Xiangxiang, Pang Yu suddenly flattened his mouth and looked at Bao Yan, "I miss my nephew's daughter!" She doesn't know if she misses me? Have you gained weight lately? Do you have prickly heat on a hot day? ”

As Pang Yu spoke, he saw everyone glaring at him.

He hadn't figured out what was going on, so he looked back...... I saw Master Pang, who had just entered the door, covering his face and crying, and ran away.

The corners of Pang Yu's mouth twitched and sighed, "Oh, it's wrong, my father is going to cry for another day." ”

As soon as Pang Yu finished speaking, he saw that everyone was looking at him.

Pang Yu frowned and looked at everyone, "What are you doing?" ”

Bao Yan wondered, "Isn't your voice hoarse?" ”

Pang Yu was stunned and coughed twice, "Huh? My nose is no longer blocked. ”

"Wow......" Pang Yu finally came back to his senses, holding the empty bowl and looking at the jade in Gongsun's hand, "It's amazing......"

As he spoke, he didn't forget to squat down and poke at the little fourth son who looked at the jade curiously, "Let's just say that you are still tender, right?" You see, your father cured me with a bowl of water. ”

Xiao Sizi flattened his mouth and wanted to beat him, but before he could do anything, Xiao Liang on the side grabbed Pang Yu's sleeve, "You dare to bully Jin'er?" ”

Pang Yu hurriedly hid behind Bao Yan.

Bao Yan turned his head and squinted at Pang Yu, that means - you will die! Even the little four sons were bullied.

Zhan Zhao was also dumbfounded when he took the piece of fragrant jade, "Isn't it......?" Never found it before. ”

"In fact, the medicinal jade is not jade, but a kind of grease, which has been deposited for thousands of years, I suspect that there is a mine of medicinal jade on the Magic Mountain, and the old people of the Demon Palace are all very long-lived?"

"yes!" Zhan Zhao nodded, touched his chin and pondered, "In this way, it is true that everyone is in good health, rarely gets sick and lives a long life." ”

"Who chose the address of the Demon Palace back then?" Bai Yutang asked Zhanzhao curiously, "Is your grandfather?" ”

Zhan Zhao thought for a moment and said, "Grandpa seems to have said that it was the place that the Silver Demon King chose for him. ”

Everyone knows.

Gongsun returned the jade pendant to Zhanzhao.

Zhan Zhao saw that his eyes were shining, so he said, "You take it, I don't have much use, when I go back to the Demon Palace, I'll get a piece for each of you, it turns out to be so useful, it's good to lick it when you have a cold in the future, and you don't have to take medicine." ”

"When you go to the Demon Palace, can you give me a stone?" Gongsun asked.

Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows, "Pull a car and go!" ”

Gongsun was excited.

Zhao Pu hugged his arms and looked at it on the side, this nerd has never asked for anything from him like this, but there is no way, there are no stones in his house and barracks. Thinking of this, Zhao Pu crossed his arms and calculated, waiting for one day to call Ochre Ying to inquire, where is the fragrant jade mine or something, and also get one to show off with this scholar...... Or go to the Western Regions to collect some magic poisons or something, and get some medical books, then the nerd should eat this set.

Zhao Puzheng was thinking wildly, and Gongsun suddenly reached out and touched his head.

Zhao Pu was stunned, looked at Gongsun, "...... Why? ”

"How did you get a ride today? Uncomfortable, huh? Gongsun said, leaning up and touching Zhao Pu's forehead with his forehead.

Zhao Pu swallowed his saliva and looked at Gongsun's face in front of him.

Gongsun measured the temperature of Zhao Pu's head, frowned slightly, and soaked a bowl of water with medicinal jade for him to drink.

Zhao Pu held the bowl of water and drank it, exclaiming-oops! Sweet.

At this time, Master Bao walked in.

Pang Yu asked him, "My lord, where is my father?" ”

Master Bao was obviously wondering, and said, "Crying in the yard, tears streaming down your face, what's wrong?" ”

Pang Yu looked at the sky, what else could he do, thinking about his granddaughter. So, Pang Yu and Bao Yan ran out of the city to comfort Master Pang.

Master Bao had already asked those ladies and was very dissatisfied, "Alas, these ladies and that Xu Mengyao seem to have something to hide." ”

Everyone nodded.

Gongsun said, "Doesn't Xu Mengyao still live in the backyard?" Why don't you ask her to ask? ”

Zhan Zhao also nodded, and wanted someone to call her.

However, Master Bao waved his hand gently, "It's not the best policy to ask directly, it's hard to guarantee that she won't say." ”

Everyone looked at Bao Zheng.

Bao Zheng touched his beard and said, "This mansion has a better idea." ”

After speaking, Master Bao smiled evilly, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

Everyone looked at each other - what is Master Bao's plan?

……

After a while, the people who were lying on the roof and waiting understood Lord Bao's intentions.

Zhan Zhao held his chin and shook his head, "My lord's move is too damaging." ”

It turned out that Master Bao had just finished asking, but he said that he hadn't finished yet, but he had some official business to deal with, so he asked several ladies to wait for a while.

So, a maid guided the three of them to the backyard to wait.

In the garden in the backyard, Xu Mengyao was sitting and drinking tea.

When a few ladies go to the backyard, it means that they will meet in a narrow way.

According to Bao Zheng's instructions, Chen Xing'er first found Xu Mengyao's two girls to prepare dinner for their young lady, so Xu Mengyao was the only one left in the courtyard.

And the three ladies, as arranged by Master Bao, walked into the backyard of the Zhan family's old mansion.

Xu Mengyao raised her head, and just above the three ladies who also raised their heads and walked in from the main entrance...... The road is narrow.

On the rooftop, everyone in the audience had a strong feeling that the show had begun!

Sure enough, as soon as the three ladies entered the door, they set their eyes on Xu Mengyao.

The second lady seems to have a more pungent temper, "Slut! ”

……

On the roof, everyone raised their eyebrows - oops, the women quarreled.

Zhan Zhao asked Master Bao, "My lord, will there be a fight?" In case of a fight, Xu Mengyao will be a one-on-three, and she will suffer a loss. ”

Master Bao shook his head, "Don't worry, it won't." ”

Everyone looked at Bao Zheng.

Sure enough, I saw that the eldest lady grabbed the second lady's sleeve and said, "Alas, this is the place of Kaifeng Mansion, let's not be so domineering, otherwise it will become unreasonable." ”

The second child took a deep breath, and the third child looked the most honest, so he went to help the two sisters to sit down and rest at a stone table opposite Xu Mengyao.

The second child slapped the table, "Xu Mengyao, hurry up and return the medicine jade that the master gave you!" ”

Contrary to everyone's expectations, Xu Mengyao was very calm and not panicked at all, except for a look of surprise that flashed on her face at the beginning.

Everyone looked at each other.

Zhao Pu squinted, "There is something wrong with this kiln sister. ”

Gongsun was puzzled, "How do you see it?" ”

Zhao Pu raised his eyebrows, "Intuition!" ”

Gongsun Wangtian.

Xu Mengyao heard that her second aunt asked her for medicinal jade, and asked lightly, "Second lady, in what capacity do you want medicinal jade from me?" ”

The second lady said, "That's the master's heirloom, I was deceived by you, so I naturally want to return it!" ”

Xu Mengyao smiled, "How do you know that I deceived Lu Dao, not Cen Yuan who sent it to me?" ”

"You ......" The second aunt was about to deliver the goods again, and the eldest lady dragged her and said, "Xu Mengyao, the lord gave you the medicine jade back then, because he wanted to accept you as a concubine, and the lord told us in person, the jade is a marriage gift." But you didn't agree to the family affair, so you naturally want to return the marriage gift, which you won't lose in a lawsuit anywhere. ”

Everyone on the roof nodded-the eldest lady is worthy of being older, this trick is very powerful, the three of them, as long as they recognize that Cen Yuanwai is taking the jade pendant as a wedding gift, then Xu Mengyao can't help but return it, right? Unless you marry and become a widow.

When Xu Mengyao heard this, she didn't panic, but sneered, "The eldest lady is really talking nonsense with her eyes open, when Cen Yuanwai gave me a jade pendant, she hadn't mentioned the matter of concubine to me." It was such a coincidence that he gave me the jade pendant that day in the lobby on the second floor of Mengfangyuan, and not only all the girls on the second floor could testify to me, but even the guests present that day could testify to me. ”

Zhan Zhao and the others secretly sighed, this Xu Mengyao is obviously more powerful.

The eldest lady and the second lady were so angry that their faces turned blue.

At this time, the third lady spoke, "Miss Xu, that jade pendant is the master's heirloom, and the old man's family still has a little blood, and we don't keep the jade pendant when you return it to us, it's for the young master." That's the master's only blood and bones, you should remember the master's kindness to you. ”

The eldest lady and the second lady glared at her together, what did it mean - why are you begging her?

Xu Mengyao looked at the third lady, took out a bag from her waist, walked over, and put it on the table.

The three ladies glanced at each other, opened the bag and saw that it was the piece of medicinal jade.

At this time, Zhao Pu grabbed Gongsun.

It turned out that Gongsun wanted to lean forward to see what the jade pendant looked like, and almost fell down, but fortunately, Zhao Pu grabbed his belt.

Gongsun patted his chest for a false alarm, twisted his face and patted Zhao Pu's cheek to express praise.

Zhao Pu almost let go of his hand as soon as he was distracted, so he hurriedly dragged it in, and simply hugged Gongsun by the waist......

"Will you give it back to us?" The eldest lady was surprised.

Xu Mengyao sighed and said, "It's not that I don't want to give it back to you, to be honest, this thing is a burden on me." I just considered that Cen Yuanwai was good to me back then, so I didn't want to give the jade pendant to the young master, so as not to cause him any danger. ”

"What did you say?" The second lady was stunned for a moment, "What danger will this jade pendant have?" ”

Xu Mengyao sighed and said, "Because of this piece of jade, I don't know how many times I have caused murder, once I was saved by Meng Gongzi, once I was rescued by a guest in the building, and I was rescued by the people of Kaifeng Mansion yesterday." ”

Everyone couldn't help frowning-Xu Mengyao knew that someone was going to kill her for that jade pendant? So since she knows the stakes of the Dao, why don't she say it?

"Now hiding in the exhibition mansion can be said to be the safest place, so I want to keep this piece of fragrant jade." Xu Mengyao looked at the three ladies opposite, "But if you really want to take it back so much, then take it back, but it's best not to make a noise, especially not to let people know that you have jade in your hands." ”

The three ladies glanced at each other.

The third lady seemed to be a little worried, and the eldest lady waved her hand, which means - don't listen to her rhetoric.

The second lady also said, "We will put the jade pendant on the golden cicada of Jinding Mountain to shine on the light of the Buddha, and then take it back, all the ominous on it will dissipate, and then this piece of medicinal jade will bless my son with peace and prosperity, just like bless my lord back then." ”

Xu Mengyao frowned, "You want to send the jade pendant to Jinding Mountain?" That golden cicada is a fake. ”

Several ladies frowned.

The second lady looked at her coldly, "What do you know?" Can you enter the Golden Dome Valley with this status? I haven't seen the golden cicada, so I naturally don't know if it's true or not. ”

Xu Mengyao said in her heart, I have not only seen it, but also seen the people who came out of it with my own eyes.

But she didn't bother to bother with the three of them anymore, so she got up and went back to her room.

The three ladies got what they wanted, and naturally they would not have anything to do with her anymore, and they were content to drink tea and chat.

Everyone on the roof looked at Bao Zheng, what did it mean - did you find out something? Xu Mengyao looked very calm.

It seems that Lord Bao is holding his chin, but he didn't expect this development.

At this time, Zhao Pu made a look, Ziying and the others went over to inform the three ladies that they could go back, and the shadow guards secretly followed.

The people went down to the roof and went back to the courtyard.

Zhan Zhao looked at the sky and felt that he was so hungry, so he looked at Bai Yutang beside him, what did it mean...... Want to have dinner? Take you to the street to eat something delicious, right?

But when he looked at it, he found that Bai Yutang was in a daze.

Zhan Zhao patted him.

Bai Yutang came back to his senses and looked at Zhanzhao.

Zhan Zhao asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Bai Yutang frowned and said, "Don't you think it's strange? ”

Everyone looked at him, "What's strange?" ”

"Someone sent a family heirloom to a beloved woman, and in front of so many people?" Bai Yutang didn't seem to be able to figure it out, "If it's really a family heirloom and priceless, wouldn't it be better to send it secretly?" With such fanfare, Xu Mengyao is a kiln sister again, not afraid of causing trouble for her? ”

Everyone raised their eyebrows - kind of sense.

While talking, Pang Yu came back, followed by Bao Yan, one of whom was holding a bun in his hand, eating quite happily, and asked, "You still don't go to dinner?" It's dark. ”

Zhao Pu asked, "How is the Taishi?" ”

"And sigh." Pang Yu shook his head and said, "By the way, I'll tell you something." ”

And all the people looked at him.

"I just gossiped with Xu Mengyao's girls outside." Pang Yu sat on the stone table with his arms crossed and looked ruffian, and Bao Yan behind him also sat at the table while gnawing on the buns, and his usual appearance was long gone.

Everyone glanced at each other - it was indeed not just Bao Yan who affected Pang Yu, Pang Yu also affected Bao Yan to some extent.

Master Bao didn't care about his son, he seemed to think that Bao Yan's change was quite good, he asked Pang Yu, "Why do you want to gossip with a few maids?" Little Hou Ye thinks Xu Mengyao is suspicious? ”

"Not only Xu Mengyao is suspicious, but also the outsider." Pang Yu waved his hand as he spoke, "You are all decent people who have never been to the kiln, so you are mixed up." ”

Everyone couldn't laugh and cry at him, but too, Pang Yu's bad experience was sometimes able to find a unique way when handling cases.

"That person is in his sixties, and it doesn't mean that he is not allowed to visit the kiln's house, why should he redeem a kiln sister and then take a concubine!" Pang Yu shook his head in disapproval, "Besides, there are many kinds of Sister Yao, and Xu Mengyao's kind is not a fuel-efficient lamp at first glance!" ”

"You can see that?" Zhan Zhao was curious.

"Tsk." Pang Yu pursed his lips, "The kiln is also a place where the dragon and the tiger are hidden, and there are many men who go to the kiln not for prostitution, just like many women go to the kiln not to sell!" Some women just use the identity of a kiln sister to do other things, and Xu Mengyao gives me that feeling. ”

Zhan Zhao and the others all frowned - so profound, can you see this?

"So what are you gossiping?" Mr. Bao was also very interested.

Pang Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "Those two girls said that Cen Yuanwai does often come and likes Xu Mengyao very much, but he has never mentioned that he wants to accept her as a concubine or anything like that before, so that when he spoke, everyone was surprised, feeling a little sudden, and Cen Yuanwai looked so anxious." In addition, several girls said that Cen Yuan gave Xu Mengyao the heirloom in public, and Xu Mengyao had face at that time! The whole building knows it! ”

"Do you remember what Xu Mengyao said just now?" Bai Yutang suddenly asked.

Zhan Zhao nodded, "She said that this is the safest place, and she didn't want to return the jade pendant to Cen Yuanwai's son, just because she was afraid that he would be in danger......"

"She said that because of that jade pendant, she has been killed several times." Zhao Puyi raised his eyebrows, "This woman is not simple, she said this to us on purpose." ”

"In other words." Master Bao touched his beard, "Cen Yuanwai gave her the jade pendant in order to pass on the murder to her?" ”

Everyone thinks that this matter is very strange, is there true love between these two people, or is it false affection, and there is another article?

At this moment, Wang Chao ran in, "My lord, someone has come to visit Xu Mengyao." ”

Mr. Bao asked, "Who?" ”

"He said that he was a friend of Lord Zhan, and his name was Meng Qing." Wang Dynasty replied and looked at ...... again

I saw Zhanzhao stretching out a finger and scratching his cheeks, looking up at the sky, and muttering to himself, "Where to eat?" ”

Bai Yutang was looking at him from the side, and his eyes were ...... It's really a different taste.

Everyone couldn't help but touch their chins - it was kind of funny.
