Chapter 250: The Old Story of Jade Pei
Qi Zhenzhen first ran out of the alley quickly, and I have to say that although Xuanrun was in a hurry just now, he chose a really good position.
This small alley is full of twists and turns, if it weren't for Qi Zhenzhen deliberately remembering the way, they really couldn't find a place to hide.
When she saw the flow of people outside the alley, Qi Zhenzhen slowed down her pace and calmly came out of the alley.
Her posture was no different from that of ordinary passers-by on the street, and Qi Zhenzhen lowered her head slightly, and changed her hairstyle and dress, so even when she saw the assassins in disguise again, the other party did not notice Qi Zhenzhen.
Qi Zhenzhen saw them heading in the opposite direction of Xuanrun's hiding, so she breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and hurriedly quickened her pace to go to the Zhao family.
Qi Zhenzhen thought about it just now, she is weak alone, and there is no power in this Ningzhou, if she can be called familiar, it is just a Liu Yunyun.
Thinking of Liu Yunyun, she thought of Master Zhao, thinking of the appearance of Master Zhao and Xuan Run talking happily, and estimated that the interests of the two should be the same, after all, she didn't know anything else, but Zhao Su's abduction was intervened by the Yu family, but she knew.
At the same time, there was another thing that made her make up her mind was a jade pendant in her hand, which was given to her by Concubine Rou, and she was packing her luggage at that time.
Because she wanted to go to Ningzhou with Xuanrun, but Concubine Rou came over late at night and quietly gave her this jade pendant, as well as the other party's earnest advice, Qi Zhenzhen was still thinking about the other party's words:
"This jade pendant is related to the head of the Zhao family, if you have something to do and need help from others, you can take this jade pendant to him, I think he is also willing to help."
Qi Zhenzhen originally wanted to ask with the jade pendant, but when she saw Concubine Rou's expression that she didn't want to discuss the matter, she still didn't ask again.
Since this inquiry will make the other party uncomfortable, why should she talk too much, and Concubine Rou's willingness to give her a jade pendant is already for her sake, otherwise she just needs to pretend that she doesn't know, for her thoughtfulness, Qi Zhenzhen doesn't want to live up to it.
It's just that after she arrived at the Zhao family, she still carefully observed the head of the Zhao family, but the head of the Zhao family was indifferent, she couldn't see anything, but she met Mrs. Zhao occasionally, and she found that the other party looked quite similar to Concubine Rou.
This discovery made Qi Zhenzhen a little surprised, she originally thought it was just a coincidence, but then listened to how Mrs. Zhao climbed up from a common room step by step, and then looked at her obviously had no family background, but Master Zhao still held the other party to the position of the head of the family.
Just looking at the way the head of the Zhao family didn't like Mrs. Zhao very much, Qi Zhenzhen couldn't help but have a guess, maybe it was a stand-in?
Just thinking about this, Qi Zhenzhen came to the door of the Zhao family again, the porter was also a little familiar with Qi Zhenzhen because of Liu Yunyun, and seeing Qi Zhenzhen coming, he hurriedly greeted:
"Miss Qi, you are here, but you want to see the young lady, this is unfortunate, the young lady went to see the business outside, and the young lady is not in the mansion at this time."
Qi Zhenzhen was not disappointed when she heard this, she didn't come to find the other party in the first place, although Liu Yunyun had a good relationship with her, and she was grateful to her because of Zhao Su's relationship, but Qi Zhenzhen also knew that although the other party was temporarily in charge of the Zhao family, the power was also in the inner house.
As for those things outside, she probably can't get involved, and finding the other party is just adding one more person to helplessness, and it makes sense to find the head of the Zhao family.
So the porter only saw Qi Zhenzhen smiling and nodding to him, originally thinking that the other party would leave, but he didn't want Qi Zhenzhen to go forward again and take out a purse from his sleeve and give it to her, the porter weighed it slightly, and when he noticed the richness of it, the smile on his face became a little more real.
And Qi Zhenzhen also said to the gatehouse, "Thank you for telling this little brother, it's just that I didn't come to see the young lady this time, but to meet the head of the Zhao family."
When she heard Qi Zhenzhen say this, the smile on the concierge's face was slightly retracted, and then she was a little reluctant to hand the purse to Qi Zhenzhen again before saying:
"Miss Qi, it's not that I don't give you face, it's really the head of the family
Where can I speak in a small porter? Even if I want to help you, I'm not qualified."
Qi Zhenzhen was not annoyed when she heard this, she smiled and returned the purse, and took out a jade pendant from her sleeve and said:
"It's troublesome little brother, but I don't want to see the head of the family in person, I just want you to take this jade pendant and send someone to show it to the head of the family, and whether you see it at that time depends on the meaning of the head of the Zhao family, and this purse can be regarded as yours."
After that, Qi Zhenzhen took out a heavier purse from his sleeve and handed it over, the porter was still a little reluctant, but seeing such a rich dot, he thought that it was just a jade pendant, and it was just a big deal to be scolded by the steward, so he gritted his teeth and said:
"Then I'll take a trip for Miss Qi, and ask Miss Qi to wait here, and the slave will go to pass the word."
Qi Zhenzhen smiled and nodded when she saw this, and the porter trotted in quickly, Qi Zhenzhen looked at the surrounding scenery, although the expression on her face was indifferent, but her clenched hands still showed how nervous she was.
And when the porter went to send the jade pendant, he was really taught a lesson, but he heard that it was Qi Zhenzhen, and he remembered King Jing who was with him, and the steward still sent the jade pendant in, and it happened that the head of the Zhao family was busy dealing with things.
When he heard that the little girl who had a good relationship with his daughter-in-law gave him something, the head of the Zhao family originally wanted to send the steward back directly, but when he thought of King Jing, he still wanted to save some face for her.
So he asked the steward to take out the jade pendant, and he looked at it and gave it back with a gift of the same value, so that it was not rude.
It's just that when the steward took out the jade pendant, he saw that the head of the Zhao family, who was quite disapproving, actually snatched the jade pendant, he picked it up and looked at it carefully, and his expression actually showed a little nostalgia, and the steward was a little stunned when he saw this.
But the head of the Zhao family asked him in a anxious tone, "You said that this jade pendant came from that Qi girl, and she ordered the porter to send it."
Hearing this, the steward nodded hurriedly, but the head of the Zhao family bit his head suspiciously and said, "How is this possible? This jade pendant was obviously carved to her by my own hands, how could it fall into the hands of this little girl."
It's just that no matter what Qi Zhenzhen got this jade pendant, the head of the Zhao family still decided to see the other party, so he only saw him ordering someone to take her to the study.
And Qi Zhenzhen was also a little anxious to wait, I don't know if she guessed right, and I don't know what happened to Xuanrun in the alley at this time?
And just as she was hesitating whether to go to Xuanrun again, she saw the porter trotting over, saying that the Zhao family wanted to see her.
Qi Zhenzhen couldn't help but hurriedly get up and followed him to the study, only to see that the head of the Zhao family seemed to be painting something, and only after seeing Qi Zhenzhen coming, he raised his head and asked:
"Miss Qi, where did you get that jade pendant? What did the person who gave you the jade pendant say?"
Hearing the Zhao family master's inquiry, Qi Zhenzhen said, "That person said that I have something to find the Zhao family master, and also said that if you see this jade pendant, you will promise to do me a favor, but Zhen Zhen is a little puzzled, I don't know if this is true?"
When he heard this, the Zhao family master's expression flashed a little change, but he didn't know whether he was happy or lost, but he still nodded slightly, got up and said to Qi Zhenzhen:
"Then I don't know if Miss Qi needs help? Let's talk about it."
So Qi Zhenzhen hurriedly said about Xuanrun, and the head of the Zhao family looked a little more serious when he heard this, and then ordered the steward to find someone to bring Xuanrun over, and he also asked Qi Zhenzhen where Xuanrun was? Qi Zhenzhen was hesitant to tell the other party, she originally wanted to lead them over in person.
Unexpectedly, the head of the Zhao family, who saw Qi Zhenzhen's expression, seemed to understand what she meant, only to see him slightly hook his lips and say to Qi Zhenzhen:
"There is a way to use people without suspicion, and suspicions do not need to be, since Miss Qi has already come to look for me, why hesitate like this, it is better to tell the truth."
Qi Zhenzhen gritted her teeth and said, and then listened to the head of the Zhao family tell someone to hurry over, and said that Xuanrun must be treated properly.
After waiting for the steward to leave, the head of the Zhao family stood here
got up and walked in front of Qi Zhenzhen, took out the jade pendant and said: .z.br>
"Then now Miss Qi can you tell me where you got this jade pendant? So that Miss Qi knows that this jade pendant was engraved by me personally, and I specially gave it to a person, and even my personal steward did not know about the jade pendant."
"It was given to me by an aunt of mine."
"I don't know if it's convenient for Fang to ask, what is the surname of Miss Qi, the aunt who gave the jade pendant?"
The head of the Zhao family had been looking at Qi Zhenzhen seriously, as if he was waiting for the other party's reply, only to hear Qi Zhenzhen hesitate for a moment and say a word surnamed Shen.
Then I saw the head of the Zhao family sitting down a little sadly, and muttered: "Sure enough, I thought it was right, it was really sent by her, it turned out that she remembered, I thought she was still complaining, and she didn't want to see me again."
Qi Zhenzhen looked at the Zhao family master who had been indifferent like this, and seemed to be sad, originally according to Qi Zhenzhen's previous temperament, she must have been very curious.
It's just that now she has been worried about Xuanrun, and I don't know if those people move more gently, and I don't know if the steward can find Xuanrun's position.
Qi Zhenzhen looked out of the door a little anxiously, eager to carry Xuanrun back in person, and at this time, she heard the head of the Zhao family ask:
"I don't know if Miss Qi is inconvenient to tell you, where is the woman who gave the jade pendant now? I've thanked Miss Qi here."
Qi Zhenzhen wanted to say that she didn't know, but she thought that Xuanrun would ask the other party, and she hesitated for a while.
