Half of the jade pendant was lost
Murong Lei pondered for a while and said, "We have just lost so many masters, Ye Yu is protected by Shen Yu, and it is not easy to arrest her."
Concubine Li didn't know what she thought, her eyes lit up and said, "You don't need us to do it, you keep an eye on her, don't fight Shen Yu head-on." If this palace doesn't give her the antidote to the seven-star poison, how long can she last on the night of the full moon every month? Haha......" A burst of laughter oozing chill echoed throughout the hall for a long time.
Murong Lei couldn't help laughing wildly.
One afternoon, Xia Qingyu woke up from her dream, sweating coldly, and hurriedly called Manager Li and asked him to help find the maid who helped her change her clothes. Although Manager Li didn't understand what she was going to do, he still found someone according to his words.
Xia Qingyu looked at the maid in front of her who was trembling and didn't know what mistake she had made, and lowered her head, and ordered her to raise her head. Xia Qingyu took a closer look at the face in front of her, it was indeed one of the two maids who chewed their tongues behind their backs, and knew that Manager Li did not lie to her.
"You're the one who helped me change my clothes?" Xia Qingyu raised her eyebrows and asked.
"Yes." The maid replied in a low voice, and looked at her timidly with her eyes.
"Have you ever seen half a jade pendant on my body?" Xia Qingyu asked straightforwardly.
The maid shook her head and said, "Miss Xia, I don't know, I just helped you change your soaked clothes, and I didn't touch anything of you."
Xia Qingyu's eyes flashed: "So, I really have a jade pendant in my clothes?"
The maid thought for a while, and said cautiously: "There is something on your clothes, I accidentally touched it, and I pinched it curiously, but I don't know if it's not a jade pendant, and I didn't take it out to see."
Xia Qingyu grabbed her excitedly and said, "What about my clothes?" Where did you put that outfit you helped me change? ”
The maid shook her head and said, "I don't know, it seems that the general asked Hong'er to wash the clothes."
"Hong'er? Then you go and call Hong'er to me. ”
"Yes." The maid agreed and withdrew.
After a while, Hong'er came, blessed her body and said, "The slave has seen Miss Xia."
"You're Hong'er?" Xia Qingyu looked at her and said.
"Yes." Hong'er lowered her head and replied.
"When I was rescued by the general and still unconscious, did the general ask you to wash a set of gray linen men's clothes for me?"
"Yes."
"Did you see half a jade pendant in your clothes?"
Hong'er shook her head and replied with certainty: "No, I touched all the clothes when I washed them, and there was nothing."
Hearing this, Xia Qingyu's brows furrowed tightly, and he asked again: "Really not?"
The answer she got was still no.
Xia Qingyu said hopelessly: "What about my clothes?"
Hong'er said: "After the clothes were dry, I sent them back, but the clothes were taken by the general at the door."
"General Shen?" Xia Qingyu thought strangely, what did Shen Yu do with my clothes?
"Yes."
Xia Qingyu saw that there was nothing to ask, so she asked her to retreat.
When Shen Yu came back from the palace, Xia Qingyu hurriedly ran to find him, only to see him standing on the pavilion in the garden with his back to her.
When Xia Qingyu approached the pavilion, Shen Yu turned around when he heard the sound, and he was not surprised to see her, he still smiled gently: "Yu'er, you are here." You're here to find Yu Pei, right? ”
Xia Qingyu's eyes instantly flashed again, and he looked at Shen Yu happily and said, "How do you know?" Did you put away my jade pendant? ”
Shen Yu looked at her with such excitement in his eyes, his eyes couldn't help but become sad, and he lowered his eyes slightly: "Manager Li told me, I," I saw him pause for a while and glanced at Xia Qingyu, "I haven't seen your jade pendant either."
Xia Qingyu's eyes darkened instantly, and he looked disappointed, and said after a long silence: "What about my clothes?" What about the outfit I wore when you rescued me? ”
Shen Yu said: "You come with me."
When Xia Qingyu took the set of clothes from Shen Yu's hand, he impatiently shook it open, touched it carefully, and touched the hidden bag, but there was indeed nothing. In fact, it can't be said that there is nothing, because Shen Yu also gave her a white porcelain bottle containing a lot of pills and a blood-red jade bracelet, which she recognized as the only relic left to her by her mother, but there was no half of the jade pendant. Xia Qingyu sniffed the pill in the bottle, and she found that the aroma of the pill was exactly the same as the pill she received in Xinyang County, although she felt strange but still hid it in her arms.
Shen Yu said: "It's all here."
Xia Qingyu hugged her clothes and felt disappointed, only nodded slightly, sat stunned for a while, and left. didn't find the half of the jade pendant, which made Xia Qingyu a little sad, that half of the jade pendant seemed to be really important to her, although she couldn't remember anything.
Shen Yu looked at Xia Qingyu's back as he left with painful eyes, his hands clenched into fists tightly, and the palms of his hands were almost about to be inserted with blood. I don't know how long it took for Shen Yu to come back to his senses, spread out his bloody palm, and lying in the palm of his hand was the half of the jade pendant that Xia Qingyu was trying to find, only to see that the crystal clear jade pendant was also stained with blood that had been pinched by his fingers, flashing with shocking beauty.
"Yu'er, she must have remembered something, otherwise she wouldn't have suddenly looked for this half jade pendant." Shen Yu thought bitterly, walked to the edge of the pool in a daze, and then looked down at the half jade pendant in his hand, his eyes were cold, and he threw it into the pool with a wave of his hand, only to see that the calm water surface was stirred up by the jade pendant and returned to calm after a circle of ripples, everything was as if nothing had happened.
Shen Yu turned and left.
From the very beginning, he knew that this half of the jade pendant belonged to Nan Yiheng, he had seen it once, he thought that Yu'er would never think of this half of the jade pendant, and he didn't want her to think of it. It's time, it's time to take her away.
Xia Qingyu's dream was a nightmare, she didn't know where she was, a black hole and a dark place, where people died from time to time, constantly being whipped and abused, silent screams and fear filled her whole heart, despair, boundless despair, where the only light and hope was the half of the jade pendant she hid. In the dream, she clearly saw the pattern and color of the half of the jade pendant, Xia Qingyu took out a pen and paper and drew it one stroke at a time, and every stroke she drew made her feel a little sad.
Xia Qingyu locked herself in the room for one night, only Nanxin and Xiaoai smelled her uncomfortable and came to see her, but Shen Yu did not come.
Xia Qingyu looked at Shen Yu's four little girls' picture scrolls hanging in front of the bookcase, this time she recognized that Shen Yu painted herself, the first time she met him, for some reason, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, as if she was blocked by something, she took them off as soon as she reached out, rolled them up, and put them on the bookcase. She didn't want to see them now, and sure enough, she didn't feel so depressed when she took the painting down.
