Although this bead emerging from the box in Chen Guogong's mansion is crystal clear, dazzling and radiant. At first glance, it is worth a lot of money.
But the question is, what is it?
Although everyone agrees that this is the "Blood Orb", is it really it?
Among these people, who among them has seen the "Blood Lan Pearl"?
Does anyone know if it is the real "Xuelan Pearl"?
In other words, even if it is a "blood mist bead", how to use it?
Also, the symbols on the sheepskin were even more strange. Aunt Pan looked at it and said that there were symbols from ancient tribes in it. But for the others, I don’t know what they were written about.
Ji Jun really wants to sing at this moment:
What do I need this iron rod for?
So what if I have this change!
Still uneasy, still melancholy!
The golden hoop is at the head, if you want to talk, give up!
When everyone was staring at this "treasure bead" and was unable to do anything, they saw Shaoyao cut a small incision on the index finger of his left hand with a "swish".
Ji Jun grinned at the sight, "What are you doing!"
Shaoyao said to everyone,
"If there are dates but there are no dates, hit the pole first! It's better to catch the tiger's den than the tiger's den! You can't trap the wolf without leaving the child! Try it with my blood! But if the beads are destroyed, don't blame me!"
While everyone was stunned, the blood on Shaoyao's finger dripped onto the beads!
It’s time to witness the miracle!
The beads slowly glow with a light red glow!
"Ah!" Zhou Biao exclaimed.
Ji Jun and Ji Yin both looked at him.
"Your Majesty, do you know something?"
Zhou Biao looked shocked,
"It's amazing! So beautiful!"
Go aside!
Not long after Liuli got married, news came out from the Huai'an Marquis Mansion that Baochang was planning to get married.
Ji Jun and Ji Min didn't pay much attention, so they just prepared two more makeup gifts.
However, on this day, Aunt Zhuo came to Danguiyuan with some worries. She took out some silk handkerchiefs with exquisite embroidery and asked Ji Jun to help sell them, saying that they were for Bao Chang's dowry.
Although Bao Chang is not Aunt Zhuo's flesh and blood, they have lived together for many years after all. Moreover, although Bao Chang is snobbish and stingy, he is pretty good to Aunt Zhuo.
At least, when Su Jin bullied Aunt Zhuo, Bao Chang sometimes chose to stand aside and protect himself wisely, but after all, he never helped Su Jin harm Aunt Zhuo.
Aunt Zhuo was grateful for Bao Chang's thoughts. She and Su Jin were sworn enemies. Su Jin was in the limelight at that time, and it was not easy for Bao Chang to avoid adding insult to injury.
Bao Chang lives in the Hou Mansion, just like a duckweed. He can't control his own destiny, so how can he stand up for others.
Aunt Zhuo is more considerate of Bao Chang. Now that Bao Chang is getting married, she also hopes to express her feelings a little bit.
Ji Jun thought that maybe Aunt Zhuo felt that she would be the only one left after Bao Chang got married, so she would inevitably be sentimental. After thinking about it, he said to Ji Min,
"Later, let's go and give Aunt Zhuo a thousand taels of silver notes, which were sold by our shop."
Ji Min frowned and said,
"Although such a handkerchief is made of fine brocade and Aunt Zhuo's embroidery is excellent, it is difficult to sell it at this price, at most two hundred taels. Do you think Aunt Zhuo can believe it?"
Ji Jun blinked, pretending to be "lai" and said to Ji Min,
"So, let's go together! It's definitely not possible for the maid to go, and it's hard for me to go, but with you here, I won't be afraid! It's a bit more practical to use this opportunity to let Aunt Zhuo have some money with her."
Ji Min smiled helplessly and agreed.
Later in the evening, away from the crowd, it's more convenient.
Aunt Zhuo's youth lives in the northeast corner of the Hou Mansion, which is relatively remote.
Ji Jun and Ji Min saw few people along the way.
Shaoyao couldn't help but said strangely,
"Miss, why is it so deserted? It doesn't look like there is a happy event going on?"
Haitang said to Ophiopogon japonicus,
"Master Xiang Lin over there wants to take concubines, so they might go over there!"
Also, one is the young master of the Hou Mansion and the other is the adopted daughter. Which one is more important is obvious!
No one was guarding the door of Fanghua Residence. The door was open, and there were no servants or maids in the yard.
Looking inside, Aunt Zhuo's room was dark with lights. Could it be that Aunt Zhuo had gone out to visit? Still resting?
Several people slowed down involuntarily.
Should we go in or turn around and go back?
Maidong whispered,
"Miss, I'm going to take a look. If something unexpected happens, we'll leave immediately!"
Ji Jun nodded and said,
"must be careful!"
Just when Maidong wanted to go in and investigate, unexpectedly, Aunt Zhuo approached several people from behind.
"Auntie, what's wrong with you?" Ji Min was puzzled when he saw Aunt Zhuo coming around from behind.
Aunt Zhuo hurriedly waved her hand to ask Ji Min to whisper, and then she whispered,
"The Marquis had something to discuss with Bao Chang, and asked me and the maids to go out. I asked the maids to go to Aunt Sun's yard, and I wandered around nearby to see you coming. I was worried that you would run into me, so I didn't dare to shout. , hurry up and tell you."
Ji Jun glanced at Ji Min, and then said to Aunt Zhuo with a smile,
"Auntie, we didn't come here at all tonight, right?"
The main house of Fanghua Residence is occupied by Aunt Zhuo, the east wing is occupied by Bao Chi, and the west wing is located in a remote location with some books placed in it.
It can be considered a study room or a living room for receiving guests.
Because the light there is good, sometimes Aunt Zhuo will do some needlework there, which can also be used as an embroidery room.
Ji Jun and Ji Min quietly approached the window, which was ajar, perfect for eavesdropping.
Just listen to Baojiang crying,
"Uncle, you promised me. You said that although I was fostered in the Huai'an Marquis Mansion, I might not be as noble as a concubine when I get married, but I admit it. At that time, you said to my parents, wait until this year When Qiu Wei opened the exams to get scholars, he wanted to catch a son-in-law for me. I also know that the talented person who is selected will definitely be favored by many people. I also said that I am willing to be the one who fails. As long as he has a clean family background, If you don’t have to worry about food and clothing, I’m willing to do it. I don’t ask for it. What an outstanding person.”
Bao Chang knelt on the ground, twitching and continued,
"You also said that if you are lucky and catch up with a poor kid who wins the Jinshi, the two of you can start from scratch and live a good life slowly. My niece will not complain about the simple life. But now you want to marry me to someone. My niece really cannot accept an old man who is older than you!"
Ji Jun's eyes were as wide as copper bells, and he looked at Aunt Zhuo, who nodded sadly and helplessly.
Hong Peiju sighed hypocritically,
"Niece Baochang, although you are not my biological daughter, you have been raised in my name over the years, and you are undoubtedly my biological daughter. I do believe that among the girls in the whole house, I have a slight preference for Liuli and Yuyan. Some, but you have to think about it, are you any too different from Yu Jue and Mei Lin? At least in my heart, you are the same as them, but now the situation is stronger than others, and Concubine Jiao Xian is suppressed, I really There is no other way! You just treat me as a pitiful uncle! I beg you, uncle!"
Bao Chang stopped crying,
"Uncle, I can't do it! I can't do it! You said, find me a husband that I am satisfied with. This old man, I am not satisfied, I am not satisfied! You said it!"
Hong Peiju looked at Bao Chang coldly and disdainfully and said,
"Did I say it? Well, that's what I said, but now I don't admit it, so what?"
Ji Min's hand clenched tightly into a fist. Listening to Hong Peiju's rogue words, even though he couldn't see his expression, he could still imagine how shameless he was.
Bao Chang was so anxious that he burst into tears again.
"Uncle, you can't deny it, you can't deny it! You promised me, your majestic Marquis, how can you not keep your words? You said it well at the beginning! If you hadn't said that, I would not have followed You come to the Marquis Mansion! I can live a very good life in my hometown in the countryside. The scholar who I am engaged to is now a candidate for the imperial examination. We are slowly living an ordinary life. We will not be admitted to the imperial examination before we meet him, even if he is not successful. Jinshi, we can also live a peaceful life in peace! You promised me, you promised me! You said that when you get to the capital, you want to find me a wealthy family, you want me to enter a wealthy family. Woo woo woo !”
Hong Peiju said,
"Yes, I let you enter a wealthy family! This is a real wealthy family, and he is the uncle of the Concubine Xian! After you marry, you will be a well-deserved relative of the emperor. What else do you want? You are a little You are not satisfied that the daughter of a rich country man can marry the royal family and become a relative of the royal family! You don’t want to think about your own virtues! You are the king of the country? You are unparalleled in beauty? You are golden? You have nothing, what do you have? Are you qualified to bargain with me here?"
Although Bao Chang was not very lovable on weekdays, following Yu Yan, he also caused obstacles for the Ji sisters overtly and covertly.
However, Bao Chang was just a follower after all, and he did not cause too bad consequences. Cold words, cynicism and the like are not enough to hurt the fundamentals.
Now seeing Bao Chang crying miserably, Ji Jun also felt pity.
Shaoyao couldn't stand it anymore. She stretched out her hand to take out a small pill and wanted to teach Hong Peiju a lesson, but Ji Jun stopped her with a look!
I haven’t finished watching the play yet!
Shaoyao stopped angrily.
Bao Chang was already sobbing. She suddenly stood up, pointed at Hong Peiju and said,
"You are really despicable, you are ungrateful, you are shameless! It was because you owed a lot of money to others and your mansion could not make ends meet, so you fell in love with me and my family's money! You used your sweet words to deceive my parents, I My parents believed that you, the younger brother of the Marquis, were of the same race and clan, and entrusted you with their only land and property. You said that after you get through this period in the future, as a Marquis, you will be able to help me marry into the world. A rich family. Let me not only be rich and powerful, but also have a noble status. You said, by then, my parents’ money will be left to me for my dowry, because if I marry into a rich family, I won’t have enough dowry, and the other party will not value me. I."
Ji Min shook his head after hearing this. Hong Peiju was very familiar with this kind of lie. It is understandable that Baochang's parents were deceived.
Who would have thought that a high-ranking marquis could deceive his own relatives?
Who would have thought that brothers of the same race and clan would deceive and abduct their relatives?
Who would have thought that from the day he met Hong Peiju, nothing he said was true?
Alas, just pay the tuition.
However, the price of my tuition is too expensive!
