Volume 1 Affection is Deep and Shallow Chapter 26 The Secret of the Jade Pendant
An Yiran returned to the wing room alone, closed the door with her hand, walked to the table and sat down, spread pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and prepared to continue to copy the fifty times "Female Virtue" explained by Song Moyu.
As soon as she picked up her book, she thought about her mother, whose whereabouts were unknown.
Song Moyu promised to help her find clues, but now there is no news at all, and she is a weak woman who has no relatives in Beijing, and she really doesn't know where to start to find it.
She still has one thing in her heart that she hasn't figured out, why did this man in black break into the Beijing suburb courtyard last night?
She was deeply entangled, got up and walked to the clothes box, took out the jade pendant that her mother gave her before leaving, looked at it carefully, and studied the pattern of this jade pendant in depth.
Suddenly, unintentionally, she seemed to see that there was a faint text shape in the middle of the pattern on this jade pendant, and when viewed from a distance, it seemed to show a "connection" shape, which could not be seen if it was not carefully studied.
She suddenly wondered why her mother had suddenly returned the jade pendant that night, which was not good for her health when she was a child.
At that time, she thought that her mother wanted to leave her something to remember, but now it seems that all this seems to be a puzzle, far less simple than it seems, especially the hidden glyph she just discovered, as if vaguely hinting at her something.
What does this ligature? My mother said that I wore it on my body since I was a child, but there is no hyphenation in my name! An Yiran muttered to herself.
She looked at the jade pendant in her hand, studied it for a while, and many questions arose in her heart.
She even boldly guessed: Could it be that her name before the age of six had the word "lian" in it? It's just that later she got a serious illness, and her father and mother felt that the original name was unlucky, so they changed her name?
Just when she was puzzled, suddenly someone knocked on the door of the side room outside, she vigilantly quickly hid this jade pendant, regained her composure, and slowly walked to the door to open the door.
When she opened the door, she found Lin Shen standing outside the door.
"Lin Shen, what's the matter with you?" An Yiran stared at Lin Shen outside the door with curious eyes, and asked puzzledly.
"Miss An, your personal maidservant, Miss Firefly, has arrived." Lin Shen said calmly, then let go of his body and turned his head to point to the firefly behind him.
An Yiran just had a straight gaze, only paying attention to Lin Shen who was standing at the front, but she didn't pay attention to the firefly behind him, and now after Lin Shen's finger, she immediately turned her eyes behind him, and was pleasantly surprised to see the firefly moon shining with tears in her eyes.
The moment Firefly Yue saw An Yiran, her tears fell down in an instant, and she stepped forward to hug her excitedly, and said in a choked voice: "Woo woo woo~ Miss, the slave finally saw you!" I miss you so much! ”
"Great! My little Ah Yue, you're finally here! An Yiran's mood was also very excited.
She was very happy when she saw Hotaru Yue, and she hugged the petite Hotaru in her arms tightly, and said with emotion.
"Miss An, since Lin Shen has delivered Miss Yingyue safely, then withdraw first!" Lin Shen waited for the two of them to calm down, clasped his hands and reported to An Yiran in a formal manner.
"Well, Lin Shen, thank you!" An Yiran said gratefully, standing at the door of the wing room, watching Lin Shen leave.
When Lin Shen's figure disappeared from their sight, the master and servant entered the wing room together, and after packing up the suits of Firefly Yue, the two sat down together and chatted, telling each other about the current situation.
"Miss, after the prince found out that you left Xizhou without permission that day, he was so anxious that he almost went to Beijing to find you in person, but fortunately, the sixth prince sent someone to Anfu to report your whereabouts and safety, and the prince put his mind at ease and sent a slave to serve you." Hotaru Yue told with emotion about the situation in Anfu after An Yiran left Xizhou that day.
"I'm sorry, Ah Yue, I blame me for being too reckless and burdening you." An Yiran heard that her family was so worried and anxious about her, and she instantly felt endless guilt and regretted her impulsive behavior.
In the final analysis, she was lucky, she was in distress on the way to Beijing, but fortunately Song Moyu came to the rescue, otherwise she would not be able to settle down here now.
"The slave and maid are fine, the son did not punish the slave and the maid for this, but Miss, you were really frightened of the slave and maid that day! The slave can't imagine how she would live without a young lady! Hotaru said as she spoke, her nose was full of sourness, her eyes were full of tears, and she wanted to cry as long as she remembered the worries of that day.
Although Hotaru Yue is a lowly maidservant, she has followed An Yiran since she was a child, and the two have established a deep master-servant relationship, and although An Yiran is naughty and reckless, and often involves Hotaru Yue being punished, she treats her very well, and the two are like sisters, which makes Hotaru unable to give up her friendship with An Yiran.
"Okay, my poor little Ah Yue, don't cry, can't I be here?" An Yiran raised her hand to gently wipe away the tears from the corners of Yingyue's eyes, rubbed her head and comforted softly.
"Miss, the slave maid thinks that the six princes are really good, although he is not related to you, he treats you very well, not only rescues you, but also takes you in." After the firefly moon sensationalized, her mood gradually returned to calm, and then she carefully looked around the room and sighed.
"Huh! Is he good to me? An Yiran sneered disdainfully, and said helplessly: "You don't know what the ugly face he had when he punished me for sweeping the yard and punished me for copying books." ”
"Huh? Miss, have you been punished for cleaning the yard? Can you do this? When Hotaru heard this, her eyes instantly widened, and her eyes were full of surprise, she had no idea that the young lady who was pampered at home would sweep the floor here.
"Alas! If you can't do it, you have to do it! Who told me to be under someone's roof? An Yiran leaned on the table, held her chin with both hands, sighed helplessly, and then added: "His Royal Highness Sixth is kind enough to take me in, just because he has a common goal with me, that is, to find my mother's whereabouts." ”
"So, can His Royal Highness the Sixth help the young lady find the whereabouts of the lady?" Hotaru asked with some surprise.
"It should be possible, after all, he is a noble prince, and he still has a lot of power in Beijing, so it would be great if he could help find my mother's whereabouts." An Yiran said worriedly, she has been away from Xizhou for a short time, but the clues to her mother's whereabouts are still vague and clueless.
And as soon as she saw Song Mohan, the whole person fell into it, if she couldn't recover a trace of reason, she almost forgot her true purpose of entering Beijing.
She immediately blamed herself, and decided to find a way to hurry up to find clues tomorrow, otherwise the longer she delayed, the more dangerous her mother would be.
Following
An Yiran was woken up by Firefly in the morning, told Chang Feng to report, and ordered her to clean up and go out with Song Moyu later.
When she heard the news, she was a little unsettled, and she couldn't figure out what trick Song Moyu was doing early in the morning, and without any warning, she sent someone to tell her to go out with him.
An Yiran packed up, and when she came to the dining room, she saw that Su Qianli had already made breakfast.
"Sister Ali, do you know where His Highness is going to take us?" An Yiran sat down and ate the meat bun in her hand, and casually asked the doubts in her heart.
"I don't know about this, His Highness only said to take you out alone, so it's inconvenient for me to ask." Su Qianli sat down beside her and smiled softly.
"Take me alone?" When An Yiran heard this, she was even more surprised.
It stands to reason that Song Moyu and Su Qianli are a couple, and they should take Su Qianli with them when they want to go out, how can they cross Su Qianli and take her alone? If you don't know it, it will cause Su Qianli to misunderstand!
An Yiran thought that she and Song Moyu were innocent, and she didn't want to provoke Su Qianli to misunderstand and cause estrangement between the two!
An Yiran hesitated at this time, worrying about whether she should avoid suspicion, so as not to cause trouble.
She thought about it carefully, put down the breakfast in her hand, and told Su Qianli: "Sister Ali, I think I still won't go out with His Highness today, I'm a little unwell, I'm tired of talking to His Highness, I'll go back to the room first." ”
After speaking, she got up quickly, and without waiting for Su Qianli to answer, she fled with Su Qianli's surprised look.
Firefly Yue followed An Yiran in small steps in a bit of confusion, she didn't understand why her young lady was like this.
When the two of them were far away from the dining room, Yingyue, who was following An Yiran, couldn't help but ask, "Why doesn't Miss go out with His Royal Highness Six?" ”
"I don't want to!" An Yiran replied casually, her heart was full of concerns, and she stepped up and walked towards the wing room where she lived, at this time she was most afraid that Su Qianli would catch up and ask about the reason, so she couldn't explain it.
"But it's really boring to stay in the suburbs of Beijing all day, miss, don't you like to go out and walk around the most? Then there is a good time to go out, and by the way, you can also find some clues about the whereabouts of the lady, why give up such an opportunity? Hotaru asked unrelentingly, she really couldn't figure out her young lady's startled thoughts.
After all, she has followed her own young lady for many years, and understands that she is worried about it, so she can change so quickly.
"Forget it, even if I want to find out my mother's whereabouts, I can't hinder other people's feelings! It wouldn't be good if Sister Ali misunderstood! An Yiran quickly walked back to the wing room where she lived, and when she stepped into the door, she finally told Yingyue what she really thought.
"The slave maid understands, is Miss worried that Miss Su will misunderstand your affection with His Royal Highness Six?" Firefly Yue instantly understood everything by An Yiran's mention.
"My little Ah Yue, you are really getting more and more discerning! I'll tell you a little bit about it. An Yiran raised the corners of her mouth, revealing a shallow pear vortex, pinched the white and tender little face of the moon like a playful hand, and praised it with a smile.
"That's nature, the slave and the young lady have always been in the same heart." Hotaru laughed confidently.
"This king is worried about you, right? This king's Ali is by no means such a stingy person! Song Moyu's cold jade-like voice suddenly sounded outside the door of the wing room.
Frightened, An Yiran and Yingyue were shocked, and they didn't expect Song Moyu to appear outside the wing room at this time.
