Chapter Fifty-Eight: Jade Pendant
Shen Li lowered his eyes and said lightly: "Yan'er, I said it." My heart is small and I can't accommodate too many people. ”
"It's not small. At least it can accommodate me, and it can accommodate Liu Feifu, isn't it?"
For the first time, Mu Yan was really angry. In fact, she knew that there must be someone behind this, and she had already guessed who it was. But her guess was unfounded, so she could only pretend to be sick and trick Fang Biling and ask her to help her find the truth. But what she never expected was that she found that person, even if there was no evidence, Shen Li had already begun to indiscriminately favoritism.
Fang Biling was right, she was suspicious, and she was immediately brought over. And Liu Feixu was suspected, but Shen Li ignored it. As if it didn't matter if it was really her poison.
"Yan'er, I've told you so many times. Don't think about it, don't mess with her. ”
Mu Yan sneered, "Did I provoke her?
Shen Li also seemed to be a little annoyed, stood up and said irritably: "This king said, can you see her poisoning with your own eyes? Everything is just your guess, how can you conclude that she poisoned you?"
"Then why don't you even call her over and ask?"
Shen Li closed his eyes, his face full of tiredness. He looked at Mu Yan, his voice a little helpless.
"Yan'er, can you stand in my position and think about it for me? I know you're fine, but I still sent someone to find Biling to question you. Although my heart is small, I am not so ungrateful as to miss the slightest affection. But for you, I still said those decisive words to Biling. You're so smart that you know that the poisoning wasn't done by Bi Ling, and that the purpose of acting in this drama is to draw out the real murderer? So what is your purpose? If it's really the poison from Feixi, what do you want this king to do? Kill her? Didn't you promise me before, I won't quarrel or make trouble, I just want to live in peace? But why are you so careful now?"
"I ......"
Mu Yan suddenly lost her words, she clearly saw the tiredness in Shen Li's eyes, and suddenly felt that she was really a little excessive? Yes, didn't she say that she would not quarrel or make trouble, but only wanted to be safe and smooth? Why did she become like this now?
"I still have something to attend to, so I'll go first. Thou hast been frightened today, so rest well. ”
Shen Li dropped this sentence lightly, sighed lightly and left, Mu Yan was stunned in place, falling into deep thought, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
"Miss, are you alright?"
Hongluan walked over and carefully tugged at her sleeve. Mu Yan shook his head in a daze, his face blank.
"Hongluan, you say, did I do something wrong?"
The little girl favored her master, shook her head and said, "What's wrong with Miss? Then Little Master Liu poisoned you, you just want to catch her, what's wrong with this?"
"But...... I didn't eat any poisonous pastries. Since I'm fine, why should I pursue it? Just think that nothing has happened? In this way, the prince will not reprimand Fang Biling for me, after all, she is just jealous, what is the crime? I saw her eyes when she left just now, and suddenly I felt so cruel. ”
"Miss......"
Hongluan saw his master like this, and he didn't know what to say. Mu Yan was very upset, so he waved his hand and said, "I'll go out for a walk alone, you don't have to come with me." ”
*
I've been in the palace for a while, and I'm almost familiar with this road. Mu Yan came to the pavilion bridge in the backyard alone, stood on the bridge and looked at the river below in a daze. The more I thought about it, the more I felt that I was going too far, only caring about my own emotions and not thinking about Shen Li's mood.
The more she thought about it, the more irritable she became, and suddenly there was an itch on her neck, she subconsciously reached out to scratch it, and inadvertently touched the jade red thread that had been worn on her neck since she woke up.
Suddenly feeling curious in his heart, he reached out and took off the jade pendant around his neck. Put it in her hand and look at it, the whole body is green, and it is also printed with a unicorn ornament, although she doesn't know much about jade, but she also knows that this jade pendant must be worth a lot. She was in possession of the body, and many of her memories had been lost. Looking at the jade pendant in her hand, she just felt that it was of great significance, but she couldn't remember who gave her this jade pendant, and what kind of meaning it had?
I had a new doubt in my heart, and the negative emotions just now disappeared. Mu Yan stood on the bridge, staring at the jade pendant in his hand in a daze, trying to recall something.
Suddenly, someone hugged her from behind. Because she came suddenly, she was startled, and in a panic, the jade pendant in her hand fell into the river below. Mu Yan subconsciously looked back first, and saw that it was Shen Li, so he put his mind at ease.
"Aren't you in the study to handle business, why did you come here?"
Shen Li smiled softly, his eyes overflowing with tenderness. "Well, I'm on business. It's a pity that her head is full of the figure of a certain girl, and she can't concentrate at all. Thinking about whether she would be angry if she was left alone? Thinking about whether she hid in some corner and secretly cried? Thinking about what if she felt uncomfortable and ran away from home? So, I just left her business and came to her. ”
"I won't hide in the corner and cry!" Mu Yan was amused by him, and the unhappiness just now suddenly disappeared. She pushed Shen Li's hand away, pointed to the bridge and said, "You, you're here to make trouble for me." I was just so scared by you, Yu Pei fell into the river, let's see what to do!"
"Jade pendant?" Shen was puzzled, "What jade pendant?"
"Uh......" Mu Yan was stunned, forgetting that he didn't know about this jade pendant, so he had to casually flicker: "The family heirloom has always been worn around the neck." My neck was itchy just now, so I took it off and looked at it. As a result, I was frightened by you and fell into the river. ”
When Shen Li heard that it was a family heirloom, he naturally knew its importance. So he was not ambiguous, and immediately took Mu Yan's hand and walked to the river. I wanted to find a few guards to come down to the river to search, but when the two came to the river, they saw a very magical scene.
It was noon, and the weather was rare and the sun was very good. When Shen Li and Mu Yan came to the river, they saw a light on the water. There seems to be something in the river, and the refraction of the light reflects a picture. If you look closely, it looks like a map. The position that shone with a bright light was the same position where the jade pendant fell just now.
After Shen Li saw the map, his face changed instantly. And Mu Yan was also stunned in her heart, and suddenly thought, could this map reflected by the jade pendant be related to the disappearance of the Mu family's Imperial Soul Wall? Could it be that this jade pendant was given to her by her grandfather? Just to tell her where the Imperial Soul Wall is?
"It's ...... Map, right? Where is this place?"
Mu Yan subconsciously murmured softly, thinking that he would not get an answer, but he didn't expect Shen Li on the side to speak: "It's Xuanwu Mountain." ”
"Huh?" Mu Yan was surprised, "Do you know this place?"
Shen Li's face was very complicated at this moment, his eyes were firmly fixed on the map shining on the water, and after a pause, he replied, "This is a place that only people in the royal family know. Because, the royal dragon vein is hidden in this Xuanwu Mountain. ”
