Chapter 18: A Bloody Case Caused by a Jade Pendant
Following the direction pointed by Lu Er Laizi, Yu Ziyan saw the owner of the bloodstone.
Without the imaginary wealth and glory, this man is young and shabby. Although the black cloth shoes are new, they are not official boots that have made Yu Ziyan breathe a sigh of relief, and when he looks up, he is dressed in a plain long shirt and is white, and the only bloodstone is embellished, no wonder Lu Er Laizi saw it at a glance.
A down-and-out scholar.
As for the appearance, it is rare to be white and handsome. It's just that his brows are furrowed, as if there is something difficult. There was only a young man in Tsing Yi beside him, who was thin and weak, and he was as easy to bully as his master. I think it's also true, such a "shabby family" can't afford to raise a big waist and a round waist at first glance.
"It's really heartfelt for this man to go out with such a swaggering thing...... The old rule, if you touch the porcelain, I'll do it. Xu Ziyan flicked his pigtails and blended into the crowd, and Lu Er Laizi approached the scholar step by step with this drunken appearance. I saw him deliberately bumping into the crowd, but there was a polite thank-you, everyone only thought that this person was drunk, but he still knew how to be polite, so he didn't dwell too much, just bypassed.
In a short time, a clearing was cleared in front of the scholar.
There will be blind spots in people's sight, and when you pay too much attention to one side, you will inevitably miss something.
Lu Erlaizi's behavior succeeded so that the scholar was afraid to avoid him, so he spontaneously approached the crowd, and frowned and paid attention to Lu Erlaizi who was wandering in front of him.
Lu Erlaizi's departure made him breathe a sigh of relief. I was about to move forward with my front legs, but I didn't feel the feeling of falling jade.
"Childe, what's wrong?" The little guy on the side was stunned when he saw him, and stepped forward to ask respectfully.
"Oh, I'm afraid it's a bad thief......"
There was no trace of panic, not only him, but even the little guy said indifferently: "Childe, do you want to see someone?" ”
"Hmm...... Bring it back if you kid ......."
"Yes."
Half a quarter of an hour later
At the chaos stall on the side of the street, the scholar shook a spoonful of chaos, blew on it, and slowly put it in his mouth and chewed it. Kneeling beside his legs was Yu Ziyan, who was caught.
Although the little girl was kneeling, she still looked stubborn. She was not convinced, but she was afraid. So kneel, but don't bow your head.
"Hungry?" The scholar asked.
"Hungry! Your men have robbed me of my pancakes! His eyes stared at the young man in green clothes.
The little servant silently put the hand holding the baked cake behind his back.
"Look, he didn't just rob it! Hide it too! Yu Ziyan shouted.
The scholar swallowed the last chaos and wiped his mouth: "Is the baked cake yours?" No. You stole it. It's like my jade pendant, which you stole too. Can you say that it is yours too? ”
Yu Ziyan pouted: "What's wrong with stealing?" Life in the world, each according to his ability. If you lose something, blame him for not having the ability, it's in my hands, that's mine! ”
"Oh?" The scholar smiled, "That is the case, you are kneeling here now, because your skills are not as good as others, and the baked cakes and jade pendants are all mine." That's what it means, right? ”
Yu Ziyan was dumbfounded, this person was even more scoundrel than her.
"Let's go, I don't have time to entangle with you little kid. Remember in the future, don't just look at people on the surface. ”
The little black head walked back dejectedly, and after tossing for a long time, it had been delayed all morning, and grandpa must be in a hurry. But she really couldn't keep her spirits up. has been mixed on the street for so many years, who doesn't know her Yu Ziyan's name, she has never been the only one who scares people, and no one scares her. Who knows that today, the world is upside down, and the years are not good. Bumped into such a difficult guy alive.
All the way to the grandfather's candy man stall.
"Huh? The stall is still there, but what about the people? According to the Xizi who was squatting at the base of the wall begging, he asked, "Brother Xizi!" What about my grandfather? ”
"Grandpa? Hehe, Kiko doesn't know grandpa! ”
"Grandpa! It's ......" Yu Ziyan smoked a candy man from the stage, "That's it, pinching the candy man, what about the people?" ”
As soon as Kiko saw the sugar man, she immediately danced with her hands, and her eyes seemed to be glued to it; "Sugar Man! Sweet! Kiko wants sugar man! ”
"Tell me where Grandpa has gone! You tell me, and the sugar man will give it to you! ”
Kiko was still staring at the candy man, and replied stupidly, "Arrest it!" Arrested! That's a lot of people! Suddenly remembering something, he knocked over the sugar man Yu Ziyan handed him to the ground, rubbing his feet and stepping back. With a frightened face, he shouted: "Poison! Poisonous! Eat it and you'll die! Kiko doesn't want to die! Take! Take it away! ”
Hearing this, Yu Ziyan's face was full of panic, and the six gods were masterless: "How can it be, how can grandpa's syrup be poisonous!" Who captured grandpa! ”
At this time, a sigh sounded behind him: "Don't ask him." Kiko is stupid...... Know a ball! ”
"Brother Lu? You know what's going on? Tell me! "It's like grasping at a lifesaver.
"Just when you were taken away by the owner of the chicken heartstone, a team of officers and soldiers took the old man away. I heard with my own ears that he said that the old man's sugar man was poisonous and hurt the nobleman. ”
"Noble! What nobles? ”
At this time, Kiko on the side began to scream again. "Little one, Red Stone! Little one, red stone! ”
Lu Er Laizi patted his brain, "Xizi said that the noble man is a child!" That's right, that's what it means! But...... Redstone ...... Huh? Where are you going? ”
Yu Ziyan ran back like crazy, he didn't care about hitting people, and he wasn't afraid of pain when he fell, so he ran desperately to the chaos stall.
"Stallholder, what about the guests who ate chaos here just now?"
"Oops! Yu girl, why did you fall like this! This makes your grandfather not feel distressed to death when he sees it! ”
Yu Ziyan looked anxious, and his voice was full of crying: "Stall owner! Leave me alone, out of the way! Tell me where that guy went? ”
"You're talking about the young man who made you kneel? Not long after walking, it looks like I'm heading to the bridge! Run faster, maybe you'll catch up! ”
Yu Ziyan chased after the bridge according to the instructions, and sure enough, he saw the young man stopping and talking in front of a stall selling rabbits.
Hurriedly ran forward, knelt on the bridge deck full of stones with a "bang", and his knee was bleeding in an instant. But she didn't care, she just remembered to keep kowtowing: "Please, sir, lend me your jade." Just borrow it for a while, and pay it back in a while! Boom! Boom...... Boom! Yu Ziyan, please! ”
All at once, it was so loud that it was unbearable.
The scholar frowned, but he still took off the jade pendant from his waist and handed it to her, "Take it!" ”
Yu Ziyan thanked him for his kindness, dragged the jade pendant to death, and limped back.
The scholar said to the attendant, "Let someone go and find out what's going on...... Well...... Let's check it out, too! He turned his head and pointed to a fat rabbit on the stall, "I bought this one, I went back to eat spicy rabbit meat in the evening, I haven't eaten hometown dishes for a long time." The taste of this south is too light to get used to. ”
When Yu Ziyan hurried back to the candy man stall with the jade pendant, Silly Xizi nodded at the jade pendant, and shouted in his mouth: "Little one, red stone!" Little one, red stone! ”
"It seems that the kid also has a piece on him. However, there are so many nobles in this Jiangning Mansion, who knows which child has this kind of bloodstone on his body, and how many pieces are there? I think it's better to forget it......"
"Slap" Yu Ziyan slapped him in the face, "What did you say?" Never mind? That's my grandfather, my own grandfather! My grandfather usually takes care of you as his own grandson, and that's how you repay him? "Angry yelling.
Lu Er Laizi knew that he was wrong, so he covered his face and said nothing. He didn't want to save people, but he didn't have that ability at all. If Sister Yu is put in again, the old man will not let him go even if he turns into a ghost. He just...... I'm just worried that she's impulsive and bad.
"There are only two pieces of this chicken heart and blood stone in the whole Qing Dynasty." A warm voice sounded, and the tone was not hurried or slow, which was very abrupt in this urgent environment.
Lu Erlaizi: "How do you know?" ”
Yu Ziyan also looked at him.
The young man said confidently: "It's very simple. This bloodstone is an ancestral treasure of my family, which was accidentally broken into two pieces in the year of my father's death. I keep one piece for myself, and as for the other piece......"
"Who's the other one?" Yu Ziyan hurriedly asked.
"It was offered layer by layer, and the Governor of Huguang and Kangxi paid tribute to the royal ...... for twenty-three years"
Yu Ziyan sat on the ground.
The young scholar asked, "Want to save your grandfather?" ”
Yu Ziyan replied: "Yes." ”
He asked again, "Will you burn rabbits?" ”
Yu Ziyan was a little surprised, but still answered honestly: "Rabbit? …… Yes. ”
"Then follow me! I'll help you save grandpa...... Oh, by the way, my name is Ye Tianxiang, in the future, please call me Mr. Ye. ”
"Yes, as long as you are willing to help me, Mr. Ye......"
