Chapter 44. The jade pendant is returned to its original owner

After the emperor's birthday, the pattern of the harem changed.

I heard that Concubine Su has been favored recently, and the emperor often goes to her to sit, which makes Concubine Su even more dominant in the harem.

Almond was puzzled, Sheng Jingyu had never set foot in the harem in the past.

I don't know what happened in the past few days, and I've been running to the Falling Moon Palace all day long.

She inadvertently heard the gossip from the palace maids, and only then did she know that it was Sheng Jingyu who promised Concubine Su on the day of Wanshou Day.

Concubine Su presented a mandarin duck embroidery for Sheng Jingyu's birthday, and the show work was delicate and complicated, so all ten fingers were wrapped with a white gauze scarf.

Sheng Jingyu was moved by her sincerity, and promised to go to her to sit there when she was free.

Hearing the mandarin duck embroidery, the almond suddenly remembered the sound of the piano.

The ten fingers of the piano sound are sore, which is also caused by being a female celebrity.

How could it be so coincidental that both of them were pricked in the hands of female reds?

She had doubts in her heart and wanted to go to Qinyin to ask, but when she left Jing'an Palace, she saw someone probing her brain behind a tree not far away.

Fortunately, no guards noticed, otherwise he would have been arrested as an assassin.

Song Ran didn't seem to notice her, so she quietly walked around behind him and patted him on the shoulder.

Song Ran was startled, shrugged her shoulders and turned around, patting her chest and breathing a sigh of relief when she saw that it was her.

"Almond, what are you scaring me for?"

"I'm going to ask you more! What are you doing here? Those who don't know think you're a thief! ”

Song Ran's tone weakened suddenly, "I'...... I'll come and see you. ”

He stumbled, then pulled out a cardboard wrap from his bosom.

"And ...... This one is up to you. ”

Almond curiously took the thing, and after opening it, he was surprised: "Sugar gourd!" How did you get it! ”

I saw a string of red sugar gourds lying in the paper bag, the whole body was round, the color was full, and they were strung together one by one, which made people drool.

Song Ran hurriedly "shh

"Let's go, let's eat somewhere else."

Almond readily agreed, hid the sugar gourd in his cuff, and walked towards the Imperial Garden.

found a rockery, and the two hid behind the rockery to distribute the ownership of this string of sugar gourds.

Three almonds per person, no more, no less, even if Song Ran said that he could not eat them, the almonds still forcibly gave him three.

It's fun to share food.

What's more, this was brought by Song Ran, where is she embarrassed to eat alone.

The sugar gourd is sweet and reminds me of the taste of almonds when I was a child.

After eating, she was still licking her fingers.

"When I was a child, my brother and I ate it a few times, and at that time we liked to eat sugar gourds the most, and it always took a long time to eat a bunch before we were willing to finish it."

Song Ran said seriously: "Then I'll bring you a few more strings next time." ”

"Okay, then let's talk about it first, you have to take my money." Almond smiled and asked him again, "That's right!" You haven't said how you got the sugar gourd into the palace! ”

Song Ran scratched his head and smiled, "I asked someone to bring it in." ”

Speaking of the piggyback, Almond remembered that it was already the end of the month, and he would be able to receive the moon silver immediately.

She hurriedly asked, "Who is it?" I'm about to send a letter, and I want him to help me carry the letter. ”

"It's Alain from the Purchasing Division."

Alain, Almond nodded, silently keeping the name in mind.

She was pondering, her gaze inadvertently swept over Song Ran's neck, where a red rope hung there, and then she remembered that she had forgotten something.

She kept saying that she wanted to find Song Ran and return the jade pendant to him.

As a result, I have been busy giving Sheng Jingyu's birthday gift these days, and I have completely forgotten about this stubble.

But it's not in a hurry, it's just right to return it to him today.

Thinking about it, Almond wrapped his hands around the back of his neck and took off the red rope that tied the jade pendant.

"I almost forgot, I can't ask for this jade pendant, so I'll give it back to you."

Song Ran naturally refused, where is there any reason to take back the gift that was given.

"This is what Mama asked for you, so you can take it with you."

Almonds don't believe it, this piece of jade looks so valuable, how could it be begged for in the temple.

"I really can't ask for it, it's too expensive. Don't lie to me, this jade is not what Mama asked, right? ”

Song Ran fell silent, which made Almond more sure of his guess.

She directly stuffed the jade back into Song Ran's hand, "This jade is yours, and now it will be returned to its original owner." ”

Song Ran let Yu Pei lie in his palm, lowering his head and not seeing clearly.

"This is what my mother left me, I heard my grandmother say that I was weak and sick when I was a child, and if I can live until now, maybe my mother is blessing me."

Almond looked serious, "Then I can't ask for it, how can you give me such a valuable thing?" ”

Song Ran raised his head, his eyes firm.

"I'm serious, you've experienced too much danger during this time, and I can't be by your side to protect you, so I want this jade pendant to bless you safely."

Being so cared about by others, it's fake to say that you are not moved.

Almond's heart was moved, but he still couldn't accept such a gift.

"This is what your mother left to you, and I appreciate your kindness."

Song Ran stopped talking, and Almond thought he had given up, but he still stubbornly wanted to bring the jade pendant for her.

He has always listened to her, but on this matter, he has to be persistent.

Almond was helpless and wanted to take off the jade pendant again, but heard a woman's voice suddenly come from outside the rockery.

"What has my sister been doing lately? Why don't you come for a walk in the Imperial Garden? ”

Another female voice sounded, her voice cold and indifferent.

"The concubines have been painting in the house for a few days and have never gone out."

"Oh? Do you not want to go out, or do you not want to see Hongu? ”

The other female voice was dull for a long time and replied.

"Concubines don't dare to ......"

The imposing female voice laughed, "Don't dare? This palace invites you to enjoy the flowers, and you have shirked it several times, and you dare to say that you don't dare?! ”

"Bengu sees how dare you!"

"Smack!" The coquettish drink was accompanied by a crisp slap.

Almond hid behind the rockery, and when she saw the bullied concubine fall to the ground, her eyes suddenly met Almond.

It turned out to be the sound of the piano!

No wonder the sound sounds so familiar!

Almond was angry and hurriedly stepped forward to help, but Song Ran stood beside her and didn't hold it, so she had to follow her out of the rockery.

"Are you alright?"

Qin Yin watched them walk out in surprise, and only then did she bow her head in embarrassment until she was helped up.

This kind of appearance was actually seen by adults.

She knew that the adults wanted to help her, but she was afraid that they would drag the adults down.

So the piano gently pushed the almonds away.

"Go away, it's none of your business."

How can this work?

Qin Yin is her friend, how can she not care.

Almond didn't understand why Qin Yin said this, but she heard the mean female voice she had heard before ringing again.

"Who gave them permission to go? Bold minions! ”

Almond turned his head to look and saw that the person who spoke was the concubine who had been favored in the harem in recent days.

- Concubine Su.
