Chapter 47: The White Jade Pendant

Ten months have passed since she woke up, and although Lan Jing'an has accepted her current life, she always feels a trace of inexplicable sadness. And what puzzled her the most was the pendant hidden on her chest. She had never changed her underwear in front of Yuwen Moyuan, and she didn't allow Su Mei Suju to come close every time she took a bath, so no one in this magnolia garden could see the white jade pendant in the shape of a fox hidden on her chest.

Yuwen Moyuan gave Lan Jing'an countless jewelry, and told her in detail about the extraordinary origin of each piece of jewelry, but he never mentioned this pendant with a special shape. And she also tried Su Mei Suju, they all said that she had a miserable life in her aunt's house before, and her aunt's whole family was extremely harsh on her, so when she married into Magnolia Garden, she was alone and had nothing. Since it wasn't sent by Junzhu, and it couldn't have been brought from her aunt's house, where did she get this special pendant?

She often rubs this white jade pendant with high quality and special shape when she is alone. She always felt that this pendant had a special close connection with herself, as if solving the mystery of the pendant's origin could unlock her sealed memory. But Yuwen Moyuan never allowed her to leave the Mulan Garden, and she was unwilling to tell the people around her about it. She could only endure the headache and try to remember, while she flipped through the book every day, looking for any special meaning to the pendant in the shape of a fox. So far, though, she hasn't gained anything.

On the afternoon of this day, she was in a daze on the love bell tower specially built for her by Yuwen Moyuan. Yuwen Moyuan quietly went upstairs, grabbed her shoulders from behind, and coaxed her to say, "Lan'er, why are you blowing the wind by the window again?" Not afraid of another headache? Is it okay to go back to the yard with me? ”

Lan Jing'an was awakened and looked back at Yuwen Moyuan. His face was not good, and he was afraid that he had encountered something tricky in his official business. She felt a little sorry for him, nodded obediently, got up and followed him back to the yard.

Although Yuwen Moyuan never said much to her in business, he also let her know some things. In the family, his brother was very jealous of his status and always gave him trouble. Until recently, when his father was seriously ill, he finally basically mastered the family, although he couldn't do what he wanted, but at least he was no longer controlled by others everywhere. Outside, he has several difficult opponents, one of whom is his sworn enemy, who wants his life all the time. At present, the struggle between the two sides is fierce, and they are in a state of life and death.

Although Lan Jing'an never asked him about his official affairs, whenever he was unhappy, she was extremely well-behaved by his side and silently helped him resolve all kinds of bad emotions.

Lan Jing'an accompanied Yuwen Moyuan back to the courtyard and sat down for a while, when Zhou Qi said outside the door that he had something important to report to Yuwen Moyuan. Yuwen Moyuan couldn't help it, so he went out again with a black face. He left and didn't come back after dark.

In the study in the front yard of the Prince's Mansion, Yuwen Moyuan received another battle report, and this time the battle report was about the Xiapi war. It's just that the battle report said that Xiao Qingyun had led people to break through Xiapi City, and the Xiapi guards took advantage of the chaos to escape. When the sergeants in the city saw that the guards had fled, most of them surrendered. Yuwen Mo was angry, he only saw the distress letter from the captain of Xiapi a few hours ago, why did he even break the city now?!

The scout who delivered the letter knelt in the study of the prince's mansion and didn't dare to come out, and replied honestly, because the scout who sent the letter was besieged by Xiao Qingyun's men and horses, and it was delayed for three days before he finally sent it out of Xuzhou. And this letter, Xiao Qingyun did not send anyone to stop them, so they hurried back to report. In addition, Xiao Qingyun also ordered someone to shout at them, saying that he wanted to let the Yuwen clan stay alone, and avenge the Marquis of Dingyuan, the Qianguo, and the people of the world!

After the scout finished his report tremblingly, he secretly glanced up at the prince and found that his face was pale. Yuwen Moyuan waved his hand to let the scouts go down, and hurriedly summoned the important ministers and strategists to discuss Xuzhou's response.

Located in the middle of Xuzhou, Xiapi's location is not unimportant. Especially after Xiao Qingyun captured Guangling, the most important city in Xuzhou, Xiapi became an important gateway to defend Xuzhou, once Xiapi was broken, Qingzhou and Yanzhou could be attacked through Langya County to the north, and Yuzhou could be entered through Pengcheng to the west. It can be said that after losing Guangling and Xiapi, Xuzhou was basically taken by Xiao Qingyun.

Yuwen Moyuan and the important ministers discussed until late at night, physically and mentally exhausted. He was depressed in his heart, obviously he had Lan Jing'an, why did Dayong's land fall into Xiao Qingyun's hands step by step? It seems that Lan Shuyao's hexagram is completely untrustworthy. The major defeat on the battlefield upset him, and his heart was full of hatred for Xiao Qingyun. But because he was afraid that Lan Jing'an would worry, he was unwilling to go back to Mulan Garden now. Yuwen Moyuan picked up a clean place, asked Zhou Qi to bring him wine, and drank it alone, borrowing wine to kill his sorrows.

When Zhou Qi helped the drunk Yuwen Moyuan back to Mulan Garden, Lan Jing'an was still waiting for him. She was sitting on the bed alone, taking the white jade fox off and taking it in the palm of her hand to look through it.

Yuwen Moyuan didn't let anyone inform, and directly staggered into the room. Lan Jing'an was startled when he saw him come in, and hurriedly wanted to hide the white jade fox, but unfortunately it was too late. Although Yuwen Moyuan's eyes were drunk and hazy, he could still see Lan Jing'an's movements at a glance. He rushed forward, and before Lan Jing'an could hang the white jade pendant back around his neck, he snatched the pendant from her hand.

When he saw this unfamiliar pendant, his face changed suddenly, and he asked Lan Jing'an loudly: "Who gave this to you?" ”

After the initial panic, Lan Jing'an calmed down and asked him, "Don't you know?" Didn't you say that all my jewelry was purchased by you? ”

Yuwen Moyuan thought about it for a moment and was sure that he had never given her this pendant. And since Lan Jing'an entered the Magnolia Garden, he has not been in contact with outsiders. Then this must be the old thing she wore when she fell into the water. Judging by her first reaction when she saw him, it means that she probably guessed it too, probably trying to avoid him to find out something. Yuwen Moyuan was a little panicked and a little angry in his heart. He asked Lan Jing'an with a cold face: "Let me ask again, where did you get this pendant?" ”

Lan Jing'an was also angry, she waited for him for most of the night, and when he came back drunk, she didn't say anything, and she questioned herself as soon as she entered the door, she still felt wronged. She felt that this pendant must be extraordinary, which is why Yuwen Moyuan cared so much. Is this pendant really related to her memory? In other words, her previous experience was not exactly what Yuwen Moyuan told her?

She also had a cold face and replied angrily: "I don't know! I knew I had a special feeling for this pendant. Junzhu, you say, do you have something to hide from me? What was my previous background? ”

Yuwen Moyuan was suddenly stunned for a moment when he heard her say about her special feelings. He remembered that a long time ago, when he ordered someone to go to Baiyuguan to investigate her, he accidentally learned that she had a nickname called Ahri, which was Xiao Qingyun's special name for her, and no one would call her like this except him, not even the Marquis of Dingyuan and his wife. Ali? Looking at the white jade fox in his hand, he suddenly came to his senses, it turned out that this pendant was actually given to her by Xiao Qingyun! After she had nothing left, she still wore the things he gave her closely!
