Chapter 12: Jade Pendant
"Mrs. Jiang, you can go out."
The sound of a man's footsteps came from the dim corridor of the prison, and then he stopped in front of the door that was closed to Mrs. Jiang, sighed that money can make a ghost grind, opened the door and took Mrs. Jiang out.
Don't think about it, she made such a big fuss at the gate of the General's Mansion before she was locked in the yamen, how could the people in the second room of the Jiang family not know that at this time, it was the old man Jiang who took out the money to accommodate the yamen, so he let people out.
Jiang Sheng and Jiang Huailin and others disliked the past and would lose their face, so no one went to the yamen to pick up people, in their opinion, it was good to rescue Mrs. Jiang, how could they go up and be embarrassed with her.
As soon as Mrs. Jiang came back, she was reminded that the old man Jiang was waiting for her in the ancestral hall, obviously a person who cut it was black, but he liked to worship the Buddha in the ancestral hall.
"Coming back?" Old Man Jiang closed his eyes and didn't look at people, and asked quietly.
"Yes, you don't know, old man, this girl is so bold that she dares to report to the official to arrest me!"
Obviously, Mrs. Jiang's impression of Jiang Moxi is still stuck in the original owner who was bullied and could not fight back, but after all, Old Man Jiang has lived most of his life and has seen it much more thoroughly than her.
"Jiang Moxi is not easy to mess with now, you have also seen it, let's be quiet recently, don't go to the General's Mansion to cause trouble."
Old man Jiang said in a deep voice, his daughter-in-law has always been brainless, and Jiang Moxi's girl doesn't know what's going on, she has become so difficult to deal with, is it really bullying before?
"Yes, my daughter-in-law wrote it down." Because of the old man's words, no matter how unwilling Mrs. Jiang was, she could only nod her head.
"Okay, you go down, it's okay, you guys don't bother me."
Not only does he see the second daughter-in-law troubled now, but the family in the second room is not happy, the second daughter-in-law is useless, she gave birth to two children in a row and did not give birth to a son to the Jiang family, she already had some complaints about her, and she was so brainless, after waving people away, the entire ancestral hall was only left with the sound of knocking wooden fish.
------------
Jiang Moxi just wanted to get up and take someone away, but suddenly felt a momentary pain coming out of her sleeve, reached out and touched it, and a jade pendant with a familiar feel stayed quietly in her sleeve.
Sure enough, she said that she had forgotten something, and she wanted to give Mo Guli a jade pendant a long time ago, so that Mrs. Jiang was stunned and forgot about this stubble.
Jiang Moxi hammered his head, secretly scolded himself for being stupid, thinking that it would be the same when he went back for a while, so he sat back and took a sip of tea in a hurry.
As for the guards who were picked out, she was taken down by Si Qing just now, she was sitting by the window, the light was excellent, Jiang Moxi took out the jade pendant and shone it in the light.
The color is transparent and there are no impurities at all, and it is worth a lot of money at a glance.
She suddenly remembered the conversation with Mo Guli that night, and burst out laughing.
When he was thinking about it, Jiang Moxi only heard the window behind him ring, followed by a familiar smell, accompanied by the man's ridiculous voice, "I really don't know if this king doesn't come here, Moxi is here to see things and think about people." ”
Because Jiang Moxi came to the teahouse, there was no compartment in the hall on the first floor, and she felt uncomfortable, so she specially picked a remote corner on the second floor, and was shocked when she heard the man's words.
"Whoever sees things and thinks about people with you, less narcissistic." Jiang Moxi put down the jade pendant, didn't look at him, pouted and said in disgust.
When she rescued him for the first time, she simply thought that Mo Guli was the kind of son who was as humble as jade and acted steadily, and it was only now that she saw the true face of the man, this was a hooligan with frivolous behavior, and it was all an illusion before.
"Why are you here?" Jiang Moxi saw that there was no sound, and after a while, he raised his head and asked, because he was sitting by the window, his eyes inevitably met the dazzling sunlight outside when he looked up, and he squinted his eyes uncomfortably.
"Of course, I felt that someone was missing me, so I came." The man's deep and sexy voice came from his ears, which made people involuntarily want to stick to it.
Jiang Moxi was taken aback by his thoughts, then came back to his senses and wiped the tears that flowed out, and raised his hand to hammer Mo Guli with a punch.
"Don't glam with me." Jiang Moxi said in disgust, not realizing that what he was looking at was the regent who was in front of him.
The playfulness in Mo Guli's eyes became heavier, and he didn't care about it, the woman's strength was like a kitten tickling, and she attached herself to it.
The slender and white fingers hooked a strand of hair from Jiang Moxi's ear, tickling the woman's face, Jiang Moxi hurriedly dodged it, and a faint flush appeared on his face, and he didn't know if it was hot.
Mo Guli was about to say something when the sound of the prince pushing open the door and walking in came from outside the screen.
"Miss Jiang can see the regent?"
The rooms on the second floor all have screens, and through the screens, Mo Yiqu can't clearly see the people in the house.
Jiang Moxi was here just as she wanted to answer, but found that the man's body that was originally standing in front of her had hidden to the side at some point.
Seeing Jiang Moxi looking at him, Mo Guli motioned with his eyes to let her say she didn't know.
"I didn't see it, I'm not familiar with him, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is asking the wrong person."
Jiang Moxi nodded silently, signaling that he knew, and then replied with a calm expression, so that Mo Yiqu could not hear the slightest flaw.
Mo Yiqu originally wanted to come over and ask when he saw Si Qing's figure downstairs, but although he heard that there was no Mo Guli's figure, he continued to say persistently.
"I haven't seen Miss Jiang for a long time, I wonder if we have time to chat now?"
He didn't mean anything else when he asked, he simply thought of the day he came to propose, the little girl who was thin and timid on the surface but was not good for the second room, he had never seen such an interesting person after living for so long.
It stands to reason that Mo Yiqu looking for Mo Guli shouldn't be the most important thing now, she said that she had no one here, why did she have to come over, Jiang Moxi complained wildly in her heart.
This screen is not very transparent, and you can see the figure vaguely, seeing the figure of Mo Yiqu who raised his feet and wanted to walk in while speaking, he was afraid that he would come in and find Mo Guli in the house, panicked, and only heard a crisp sound, and the jade pendant that had been pinched in his hand was broken into several pieces.
This voice also attracted Mo Yiqu's attention, afraid that Jiang Moxi would have something happen inside, so he didn't care too much, so he went around directly from the side of the screen.
I saw that Mo Guli, who was still looking for him just now, was inside, and the two of them looked at him blankly, as well as the jade pendant fragments on the ground.
"This, is your jade pendant broken?"
Mo Yiqu glanced at Mo Guli's waist, which was empty, then glanced at the ground, and asked after a moment's stunned.
"Ah, yes." Mo Guli didn't seem to care, as if it was just an insignificant gadget.
Looking at Mo Yiqu's expression, Jiang Moxi felt that this jade pendant was not very simple, "Is there anything special about this jade pendant?" ”
No matter how she looks at it, it is a jade pendant with a better texture, and if she is asked to find another piece of compensation, it should not be particularly difficult to find.
"This is a jade pendant rewarded by the Emperor Taishang."
When Mo Yiqu heard her ask, how could he not understand that this jade pendant had not been broken on Mo Guli's body for so many years, and it was broken by Jiang Moxi, but Mo Guli did not want to embarrass Jiang Moxi.
He even had a strange idea, just like Jiang Moxi had been mischievous in front, and Mo Guli was working hard behind him to clean up the mess for her, shaking his head, how could this be.
"Then this jade pendant, isn't it particularly expensive?"
As soon as he heard that it was a gift from the Emperor Taishang, Jiang Moxi panicked and turned his head to look at Mo Guli.
Mo Gu didn't answer unfathomably, but Mo Yiqu answered beside him, "It's just priceless." ”
Jiang Moxi almost wanted to cry without tears when she heard this, if it was an ordinary treasure, it would be nothing, the imperial gift of the Emperor Taishang, she would be beheaded.
She looked at Mo Guli like a pleading, and the man sighed helplessly, "Okay, don't scare her." ”
He raised his eyebrows at Jiang Moxi again, and teased, "What can I do, you can't sell it for money." ”
"If you can't sell it, you can't sell it for money, but what about this jade pendant."
Jiang Moxi looked at the debris underground and panicked, she wouldn't be dead again if she hadn't stayed here for long.
"Well, it's not that there is no way."
Under the woman's rare soft gaze, Mo Guli continued.
"If you marry me, if you marry my imperial brother, you won't condemn you, do you say it's okay."
The man's half-truths and half-truths contained tensions that only he knew.
"Is that all there is to it?" Jiang Moxi had a bitter face, there was no other way.
The other two people in the box heard the reluctance in Jiang Moxi's words, Mo Yiqu was a little surprised, Jiang Moxi first refused to marry him, and Mo Guli was reluctant to mention it at this time, what did she want.
If this were for any other woman, she would be ecstatic to agree, but if it was really an ordinary woman, it would be boring, and this may be the difference between her and others.
"Yes, there is no other choice but to marry me." The man replied with a smile, looking at Jiang Moxi's teeth itching with a good temper.
And because the disaster came down by itself, what can I do?
Jiang Moxi looked at the debris on the ground helplessly, "Then this broken thing, is there no place to repair it?" ”
She remembered that there should be a place to repair jade, if she repaired it, she didn't have to marry, she didn't want to marry Mo Guli, but she was just a little resistant to marrying.
"No, the kind you said is to inlay gold on the jade to fix it, but if that's the case, wouldn't it be clear to tell people that this jade pendant is broken?"
The prince is worthy of being the prince, and he can calmly give her an answer at this time, but it also shattered her dream in an instant, but it was not him who broke the jade pendant, so he naturally didn't need to panic.
