Chapter 216: Where Does the Jade Come From?

Xu Tianhong knew that Chu Lingyi and Mu Li were well-intentioned, but if he wanted to read all the books that Chu Lingyi brought in a short period of time, it was obviously a little unrealistic.

Only the focus of Mu Li's painting is the most essential part, Xu Tianhong raised the note in his hand to Mu Li. "Thank you, Princess, I'll take a good look."

Mu Li said proudly: "Yes, of course, the notes copied by this princess are much better than someone's books." ”

Indeed, Xu Tianhong has not much time left, he can't go through all the books from beginning to end, only Mu Li's focus is to send charcoal in the snow.

Chu Lingyi was very curious, what did Mu Li do on the rice paper that caused Xu Tianhong to be such a treasure. I'd rather not have my own books than the princess's notes.

Chu Lingyi tilted his head sideways to find out, but Mu Li immediately blocked in front of him. "What, this is what I specially prepared for Xu Gongzi."

"I just want to see what the princess wrote." Mu Li's words Chu Lingyi knew that the writing was not good, and she was not happy to ask her to help copy official documents together on weekdays, how could she be willing to help Xu Gongzi at this time.

In fact, Mu Li didn't write at all, and the rice paper was full of the key points that Mu Li pasted. After Mu Li saw the point, he cut it off with scissors, and then pasted it with paste. In this way, there is no need to write with a brush, and it can also greatly save the time of copying. It's just that it costs more books, and the original page of the book is wasted.

"No, you can't see it. Okay, let's not bother Xu Gongzi here, let's go back quickly. In order to prevent Chu Lingyi from reading the notes she made, Mu Li tried his best to beckon Chu Lingyi out.

Xu Tianhong took advantage of Mu Li's lack of attention, and turned the rice paper sideways for Chu Lingyi to glance at. Chu Lingyi really admired Mu Li's brain, and he could still come up with such a method, which really met the princess's lazy nature.

Xu Tianhong did not live up to Mu Li and Chu Lingyi's expectations, he was studying carefully every day, and if he met someone he didn't understand, he would wait until Chu Lingyi came to ask Chu Lingyi for advice. Chu Lingyi believes that according to the state in front of Xu Tianhong, there is no doubt about the middle move.

The housekeeper in prison only stayed for four or five days, and he ate a limited amount of food every day, not to mention that he was hungry and very thirsty. The housekeeper shouted with difficulty: "Warden, come here, come quickly." ”

"Why are you again, things keep happening day by day, let's say, what do you want this time?" The warden has become accustomed to the housekeeper looking for trouble at every turn.

"Please come over, I have something to say to him." The housekeeper really can't stand it, and if it goes on like this, it is better to give him a good time.

"Just you, just because you also want to see our prince, how can our prince be able to see if you want to?" Chu Lingyi specially explained to the prison warden that he must wait until the housekeeper begs for mercy.

The housekeeper held on to the cell door, his face very bad. "Please, I have something important to tell the prince, and your prince will definitely be interested."

I don't know what important clues the housekeeper has, and he still wants to see Chu Lingyi, and he doesn't want to see what his identity is.

"Don't bother, look at the others, that person is so entangled with you." The warden had already seen that the housekeeper was very impatient, if it weren't for Chu Lingyi's confession that he would spare his life for the time being, he would have starved to death long ago.

"Well, don't go."

The housekeeper's trembling hand took out a piece of jade from his chest, "This jade is enough for you for the rest of your life, and I trouble you to invite the prince, I really have something to tell him." ”

"Well, you have a bit of eyesight." The warden took a closer look at the jade given to him by the housekeeper, it was in good condition, it was a good thing, and the warden hurriedly stuffed it into his sleeve. The warden really didn't expect that this so-called housekeeper still had a little money, and he would carry such a valuable thing on him.

"Lord Wang, there was news from the prison just now, saying that the housekeeper wants to see you."

"Oh, it looks like he's figured it out, let's go check it out." Chu Lingyi wanted to see what kind of medicine was sold in this housekeeper's gourd, and he was going to wait for the imperial examination to be dealt with after the imperial examination, but he didn't expect him to be so impatient.

Mu Li made milk tea and came out, and saw that Chu Lingyi was gone. "People, don't you want to drink milk tea, I've done it all."

"Liuyun has been here, it seems that the one in prison wants to explain something."

"The old man?" Mu Li put the milk tea on the table and prepared to join in the fun. How many Gu villagers this old man has harmed, it is really too much to ask for mercy at this time.

When Mu Li came to the cell, the housekeeper was kneeling on the ground, his lips were chapped, and his face was hungry, as if he had been hungry for a long time. "Lord Wang, please spare my cheap life, the villain's life is not worth it, it is not worth your attention."

Mu Li heard this sentence and immediately stepped forward. "Spare you, why don't you spare those Gu Village villagers who died tragically, if you didn't blow the wind in your ears, would the thieves do something to the villagers?"

That's right, if it weren't for the housekeeper serving the two masters, it wouldn't hurt the people of Gu Village to be so pitiful. It is absolutely impossible to spare his life at this time, not to mention that he wants to hurt Xu Tianhong and let him die a hundred times without relieving his anger.

When the housekeeper heard what Mu Li said, he knelt on the ground and said nothing.

"Why are you here, there is too much bad luck in a place like a prison cell, let's go back and rest, and the king of milk tea will drink it in a while." Although Chu Lingyi was not a superstitious person, he was still afraid that something unclean would get on Mu Li.

"It's okay, I'm not like some people who do bad things, I'm not afraid of crooked shadows." Mu Li stood beside Chu Lingyi and stared at the housekeeper in a daze.

Chu Lingyi was afraid that Mu Li would be tired, so he deliberately gave up his chair to Mu Li to sit down.

"Say, what are you calling this king to do, this king is very busy, and he doesn't have time to listen to your nonsense here, and where did you come from this piece of jade?" Not long after the warden got the jade, he took the initiative to hand it over to Liuyun, and there had never been a corrupt person under Chu Lingyi's hands, so it was impossible for the housekeeper to buy the warden.

"Lord Wang, I bought that piece of jade at a high price."

"Impossible, how could this jade be outward, this is obviously something in the palace, let's say, where did it come from?" How could a cunning person like a steward spend a high price to buy jade, it must have been stolen or robbed from somewhere.

"No, it's true. Lord, please believe me, this is what I bought from a man recently. It is said that with it, you can turn evil into good fortune and make a lot of money. "It's already in Chu Lingyi's cell, where does the housekeeper dare to say anything, what he said is true.

This jade was bought by the housekeeper from Ah He, and he was the one who lied to the housekeeper that there was a big business in the capital. Ah He is an idle person, and his financial resources on weekdays are either deceived or robbed. This jade was snatched by Ah He on the street, and there was no shortage of money to use, so he tricked the housekeeper into buying it, but the housekeeper treated this jade as a treasure and wore it on his body every day, and bribing the warden was also helpless.
