Chapter 25: Liu Jinqiao
"These are the clothes you wore before, and the clothes you are wearing now are changed by my father for you, and this dress is mine. But your clothes are tattered like this, it should be useless, you see, this is all the stuff on you. Yang Xiuwen put down his things and let him check them for himself.
Just now he did touch something hard in this bag of clothes, and he didn't know if it was the jade pendant or the silver he said.
Liu Jinqiao picked up his clothes and looked through them carefully, the jade pendant was still there, and the money bag was still there, okay, he had a habit of tying the money bag to his belt, otherwise these things would definitely be washed away by the water.
Before, because the front bag was stolen on the street, he had no money to pay it back, and then he learned to be obedient and tied the money bag twice around his belt so that it would not be easily stolen.
I didn't expect to be able to leave him money and jade pendant this time, thinking of the jade pendant, I quickly touched the jade pendant on my neck, this jade pendant was put on by his biological mother Queen Xu herself, I don't know what method was used? They couldn't get rid of it, even if they cut it with a knife, they couldn't cut the jade rope around his neck, so they had to give up.
The child they sent to the palace to replace him also had one around his neck, but that one was just the same color, and the emperor had paid a lot of money to build it, almost to the point that it could be fake.
A month ago, his mother's birthday, because he was the head of the house, so the house was very lively, at that time he was not feeling well, did not come out, but still let people give gifts.
Although his mother didn't like him, his father was kind to him, and secretly gave him a lot of good things, telling him not to tell his mother and hide it himself.
On the day of his birthday, he copied the words he was punished for, and wanted to put them in the hall in his mother's yard first, so that his mother could check them when she came back, but who knew that there was no one in his mother's yard? But one of the corners of the yard is lit.
As far as Liu Jinqiao knows, that corner should be the room of the subordinates, and now the subordinates of the entire Houfu should be busy in the front yard, how can there be anyone lazy here?
Liu Jinqiao walked over quietly curiously, and before he got too close, he heard a small sound coming from inside, and listened carefully, only to find that it was his mother's voice.
Liu Jinqiao feels even more abnormal, her mother is now the protagonist, she should entertain guests in the front yard, right, why is she here?
Liu Jinqiao was afraid that he had heard it wrong, so he approached carefully and carefully, and finally heard clearly what the people inside said.
But hearing his mother call the emperor in such a loud voice, Liu Jinqiao almost fainted on the spot outside.
His mother is messing around with the current emperor here, which is too unreasonable, and what makes him even more unbelievable is that there is still him in what they say, and His Majesty also asked his mother to find a reason for him to send him out as soon as possible, and his throne wants to be passed on to their son.
Their son?? This sentence shattered Liu Jinqiao's three views, and at this time, Liu Jinqiao's thinking did not diverge, but listened to the conversation inside seriously and attentively, and there was still a trace of spiritual attention to the door.
In the end, he found out that the child they had swapped out was himself, and Liu Jinqiao had no idea of continuing to listen after hearing those conversations.
I wanted to go away quietly like this, but who knew about eavesdropping? He was not alone, there was also a little maid, this maid was a little orphan girl he used to be on the street.
Because his mother did not want him to have a maid to serve him, the girl was sent to her mother on an errand.
The movement just now had obviously alarmed the house, and the little maid directly pushed Liu Jinqiao outside the yard and put aside the eavesdropping on him.
The little girl was so shocked just now, she didn't expect these two people to be so shameless, the little boy is kind-hearted, how could he meet such a disgusting person?
The little girl prayed to Liu Jinqiao with her eyes and let him leave quickly, this matter must not involve him, otherwise the little boy will definitely not survive.
Xiao Gongzi is her savior, and she can't watch Xiao Gongzi being killed.
Liu Jinqiao had no choice but to leave in her pleading eyes, he knew what the little girl meant, and he couldn't put his life into it.
Sure enough, the little girl was found dead in the lotus pond the next day, and I heard that she fell down, in a mansion like Houfu, there is nothing to die of a maid, and this matter passed quickly.
Liu Jinqiao felt that according to the woman's suspicious character, he would never gently expose it like this, and sure enough, within a few days, the woman had another banquet, this time, he had to attend, but when he was passing by the covered bridge, he didn't know what he tripped over, and the whole person fell into the lake like this.
The lake water in the big winter was cold and biting, the heavy cotton jacket on his body, and the woman wanted his life, so he soaked in the lake for a long time, and it was the king of Chu who passed by and rescued him.
After that, he began to have a high fever, and I don't know whether he should die or say that he was dead, the woman didn't ask him for a doctor, so he burned intermittently for more than ten days and gradually got better.
The woman did not intend to let him go like this, but found an excuse to send him to Zhuangzi to recuperate, and sent someone to intercept him on the way.
This is why he was seriously injured and fell into the water, fortunately, he had already taken precautions, and he also thought of many possibilities, as early as when he was ten years old, because he was slapped, blood dripped on this jade pendant on his chest, and then he was able to touch another small courtyard that others could not touch.
This small courtyard is to follow him, and wherever he goes, he can store things, but people can't get in, and it's half the size of the courtyard where he lives now.
The good things that his father and grandfather gave him before were all hidden in this mysterious place, and only he could get them anyway.
When he had a high fever, he put all the valuable things in his yard into this place, clothes, bedding, shoes, socks, all of which were prepared for him by people outside, he didn't know when the woman would do it, so being ready at any time was the only thing he could do for himself.
I also secretly went to the kitchen to smuggle a lot of fresh meals and put them in this yard.
There was something strange about his yard, he had never seen a wall of this material, smooth, white, white and glowing.
It's been a few years since he got this thing, and he has been fumbling for more than a year before he knows how to use it? He didn't dare to ask others about this thing at all, for fear of being instructed, and wanted to kill people and seize treasures.
At first, he was in a state of confusion for a few days, and he was afraid that others would find out, but when he was sure that others could not see the courtyard, he began to be unscrupulous, hiding all the good things that his father and grandfather gave him in private.
