Chapter 225: Gifting the Jade Pendant
The third prince looked at her and said slowly.
"Childe, I don't even know whether to believe you or not, my father said that you can't trust anyone, but I have taken you to the carriage, it is already considered benevolent and righteous, you have to figure out what you have to do, I don't want to hurt my family because of my good deeds."
After listening to his words, Liu Die'er still said firmly.
Sure enough, after listening to Liu Die'er's words, the third prince was extremely anxious.
"Girl, you believe me, I must not be a bad person, if you really don't believe me, then please accept my jade pendant, this jade pendant is my family heirloom, and it was also given to us by my father, if you don't believe me, you can take this jade pendant to the emperor for verification."
The third prince was a little anxious, he suddenly pulled off the jade pendant on his waist and put it in Liu Die'er's hand.
She saw that the man in front of her had taken the bait, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl, but she was still hard-mouthed, and she couldn't let her fox tail be exposed.
"What's, what is this?"
She held the jade pendant in her hand, looked at the third prince and asked.
"I can't hide it, I am the third prince today, and now I don't know who I was hunted down and murdered, so I want to enter the palace to see my father and the emperor now, and I want to investigate this matter thoroughly, because for me, there have been two people who have sacrificed their lives for no reason, even if it is not for me, for the sake of others, in order to comfort their souls in heaven, I will find out who is persecuting me."
When the third prince talked about this again, his eyes were extremely sharp, as if there were thousands of knives.
"What? You said that you were the prince of the dynasty, God, you couldn't believe me, you actually met the third prince, but you must be unfounded, even if you give me this jade pendant, I don't know if this jade pendant is real or false, and it's not all up to you. ”
Liu Die'er asked with her mouth wide open and her eyes wide.
"So I already told the girl just now, you can go and verify, aren't you going to the palace to see your father? You can take this jade pendant and ask him, if you really don't believe it, you can observe it again, the eldest prince and the second prince also have the same waist between them, and the jade pendant said that the jade pendant was given to the three brothers by our father after birth. ”
"And I don't have to lie to the girl, do I? I have no grievances with you, and you are still my savior, if it were not for you, I don't know what difficulties I would encounter in this section of the road, and it is likely that it will be delayed for a long time, but if you help me like this, I will repay you, and I will not murder you. ”
The third prince looked at Liu Die'er again and asked.
"But Childe, do you really think I'm a good person? If you give me this jade pendant, aren't you afraid that I will run away with this jade pendant? Besides, this is your family heirloom, and this jade pendant should be able to sell for a lot of money. ”
"Of course I'm not afraid, the girl is a person from the Yuan Mansion after all, the Yuan Mansion family has a big business and is not short of money, besides, you are entering the palace to receive the emperor's reward, anything given by the emperor is a thousand times more than this, and even worth a fortune, my little jade pendant should not be a treasure in the eyes of the girl."
The third prince said with great certainty.
"It seems that Gongzi believes in me like this, if you believe me like this, then I have to keep your jade pendant for the time being, but Gongzi can rest assured, and when I verify it, I will bring you to the emperor, and I will naturally return your jade pendant to you intact."
Liu Die'er held the jade pendant tightly in her hand and said.
"Then I'll leave it to the girl."
The third prince began to see the woman in front of him with sincerity in his eyes, and he didn't think much about it, he just felt that if he could see his father for a while, everything would come to light.
So he said goodbye to Liu Die'er in the carriage.
The two of them agreed to meet at the gate of the palace at three o'clock in the afternoon, and by then she had naturally explained the matter to the emperor, and she would bring him directly into the palace at that time.
So he got out of the carriage halfway through, and watched as the carriage slowly disappeared from his field of vision.
Looking at the vanished carriage walking towards the depths of the palace, at this moment, the third prince was already deep in the palace, and the huge imperial city itself had not been here for a month, and it had already undergone some changes.
Looking at the place where he grew up, looking at all the familiar scenes in this palace, he couldn't help but reverie in his heart, I don't know what happened to the queen mother during the time he left, but now that the agreed time has not yet arrived, it is better to take advantage of this time to go to the palace to see the queen mother.
Fortunately, he had already entered the imperial city, so after glancing at no one around, he searched for the memory in his mind and walked towards the queen's bedroom.
I don't know why I have not been gone for a month, the palace has undergone such earth-shaking changes, even all the green plants and flowers have been changed, the former mother liked peony flowers the most, because peony flowers are the national flower, so my father ordered people to plant peony flowers in the entire imperial garden, and even on both sides of all the aisles, but now there is no peony flower, but colorful tulips.
He couldn't help but feel cold in his heart, because he didn't know if something bad had happened to the queen mother, otherwise why didn't he even have a favorite peony flower in his mother?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but quicken his pace and walked towards the queen's bedroom.
But he found that at the gate of the queen mother, there were two guards standing at the door, and the guards were pacing back and forth with knives at their waists, as if observing the people in front of them.
And at this time, the third prince can only hide behind a big rock first, observing what is happening in front of him, he can't rush out blindly, in case he rushes out, he is taken down like a rebel, and it will be bad if he is caught in prison, mainly because he is so embarrassed now, no one will recognize him as the third prince.
"Hello, I'm bringing food to the queen."
Suddenly, a palace maid who looked like a maid, carrying a mahogany basket in her hand, walked up to the guard and said.
"Breakfast has been delivered an hour ago, and now it's not time for lunch, what kind of food are you delivering at this point? The emperor ordered that he could only deliver food three times a day. ”
The guard with the knife said viciously to the maid in front of him.
"Presumptuous, don't you know that in addition to three meals a day, the queen loves to eat red bean cakes at noon? The red bean cake was ordered by the queen to do it myself just now, and it was also what the queen wanted to eat. ”
The maid also said without showing weakness.
