Lu Jinzhi raised his head and looked at Lu Yizhi at the door, looking disdainfully at his right hand.
"There will always be only one person in the Duke's palace who will be embarrassed, and that is you who stole your biological mother's dowry to gamble, lost your biological mother's only love, and ruined your own future!"
Lu Yizhi's jaw tightened, his right hand clenched into a fist and he hid it in his sleeve. He handed the mother-of-pearl box held in his left hand to Zhuye.
"This is what you ordered at Yueji Pavilion a few days ago. Miss Qiao Er didn't even look at it and just threw it out."
Lu Yizhi put down his things, said no more, turned and left.
Zhuye lowered his head and looked at the mother-of-pearl box in his hand. The surface of the box was covered with scratches, and one corner was even missing. It really looked like it had been dropped heavily on the ground and scratched several times.
"Bring it here." Lu Jinzhi said angrily.
Zhuye hurriedly handed over this hot potato.
Lu Jinzhi loosened the cloak wrapped around him, reached out to take it, and opened it. A bright red gemstone rolled out of the box and hit the ground with a crisp tinkling sound.
Zhuye hurriedly crawled on the ground to pick up the precious ruby, but Lu Jinzhi, like an angry beast, waved his hand and smashed out the hairpin and the box.
Zhuye was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and did not dare to get up.
Lu Jinzhi felt like he had been punched hard in the chest. It was painful and stuffy, so tight that he had to work hard to breathe.
"Go, send the medicine over immediately." Lu Jinzhi roared.
Lu Jinzhi's appearance was really scary. Zhuye didn't dare to delay, so he immediately collected the medicine and ran out quickly.
Lu Jinzhi did nothing, just sat there, waiting for Zhuye to come back.
He didn't believe that Qiao Yin would still be so generous after seeing his show of kindness.
Won't! Absolutely not! He knew Qiao Yin very well.
Lu Jinzhi was originally sitting on a chair waiting. Seeing the sun setting in the west, the sky getting dark, and the bamboo leaves still missing, Lu Jinzhi couldn't wait any longer, so he walked out of the room.
He was going to wait for Zhuye at the gate.
On an October evening in late autumn, the wind had already brought chilly air. Lu Jinzhi ignored it and lingered at the gate while sneezing.
When it was time to light the lamp, the bamboo leaves finally came back, along with a pack of broken porcelain and pills stained with dust.
"As soon as I explained my purpose, Mr. Qiao became so angry that he raised his sword to cut off Xiao Xiao's head. Mr. Qiao didn't even look at the pill and threw it to the ground."
Zhuye replied tremblingly, not daring to look at Lu Jinzhi's face. He lowered his head and begged Lu Jinzhi not to anger him.
I don't know whether it was because of physical discomfort or something else, but Lu Jinzhi's face turned pale and white, his breath was turbulent, he lowered his head to cover his lips and coughed violently.
"Your Majesty, please take care of your health? A woman is not worth it. You are about to marry the prime minister's daughter..." Zhuye advised cautiously.
Lu Jinzhi interrupted him with a wave of his hand, "You just said that it was Qiao Mo who threw your things, not Qiao Yin, right?"
Zhuye was stunned, not sure why Lu Jinzhi asked this, so he could only say truthfully: "I haven't seen Miss Qiao Er."
Hearing this, Lu Jinzhi smiled, and his slightly frowned eyebrows relaxed.
Qiao Mo has never liked him, and he doesn't know how many times he has targeted him secretly.
Carrying Qiao Yin's back and throwing his things was something Qiao Mo could do.
It has nothing to do with Qiao Yin!
"It's useless, even if you ask me to give it to you, you won't be able to deliver it to the rightful owner!" Lu Jinzhi scolded Zhuye!
…
"I'm going to kill that piece of shit Lu Jinzhi!"
"This new treasured sword I got is missing a human head to sharpen it!"
Qiao Mo brandished a sharp sword that shone with cold light, and he was so angry that he looked like an out-of-control wolfdog. He could rush out at any time and bite people's necks off one by one!
"Ahem——"
Qiao Yin held her chest and coughed violently twice, coughing so hard that stars appeared in her eyes, but she had to comfort Qiao Mo first.
"Okay, okay, brother, the most important thing now is not this, but quickly find a way for me to get that jade pendant back."
If she couldn't find the jade pendant, she would be too embarrassed to see Xie Yu'an.
Thinking of Xie Yuan, Qiao Yin could only look up to the sky and sigh.
I was supposed to pay you back this morning, but in the blink of an eye it turned into this, like a roller coaster.
Seeing that another day passed and her strategy progress returned to before liberation overnight, Qiao Yin couldn't help but start to feel anxious. While she was anxious, she felt a real sadness in her heart.
She really wanted to return the jade pendant to Xie Yu'an.
"With such a big lake, if we want to find such a small amount of things, we can only put in the water and dig it out bit by bit. But is Jifang Garden willing to do such a big project?"
Of course I don't want to.
The next day, as soon as Jifang Garden opened, Qiao Yin ran over to negotiate.
But no matter how Qiao Yin begged or said, the boss of Jifangyuan would not let go.
"Miss Qiao Er, are you in conflict with me? You fell down once, and now you have to drain the water and dig the ground. Do you still want to do my business?"
"When this garden was first built, ditches were dug to divert water. Now there are no open ditches or culverts. If you want to release water, where should you release it? Even if there is land to release water, after digging, where will you redirect the water? Is it difficult to do so? I'm guarding a pile of mud, waiting for the rain to fill it up for me?"
Qiao Yin tried his best but still came back in vain.
Bizhu looked at her dragging her sick body, and the wind and cold became more and more serious, and said distressedly: "Miss, if you don't forget it, General Xie doesn't know anyway, so it doesn't matter if we find someone to make a fake."
Qiao Yin sat at the door of Jifang Garden, looking at the sky above his head.
What Bizhu said was good, but she just couldn't accept it.
Qiao Yin suddenly smiled bitterly, how could he be so unwilling all of a sudden?
really weird.
When she attacked Lu Jinzhi before, she couldn't find two-color plums on the Wanzhang Cliff. She gave Lu Jinzhi ordinary white plums, but she didn't feel so unwilling.
"Let's go to Yueji Pavilion."
Qiao Yin gave up and decided to adopt Bizhu's suggestion.
…
"Uuuuuu——"
When Xie Ren came back from outside, he happened to see Xie Yu'an pouring a pack of dried meat into 321's dog basin. However, 321 dragged his body to the corner and hid in the corner as if he had seen a beast.
"Brother, what are you doing? You see, San Er Yi can't walk anymore, why are you still feeding me?"
Xie Yu'an came to his senses and lowered his head to see that the inside and outside of San Er Yi's dog bowl were full of dried meat. Xie Yu'an stood up and put the dried meat away.
Xie Ren took a sip of tea and looked back at him: "It's such a beautiful weather, brother, why don't you go find Miss Qiao Er? Go find her quickly, she will give you..."
Xie Yuan raised his eyes and looked at him: "What's wrong with her?"
Xie Ren suddenly stopped. He promised to keep Qiao Yin's secret secret, but it wouldn't be a surprise if he revealed it.
Xie Ren shook his head: "It's nothing, it's just that Miss Qiao Er has been waiting for you. She must be very happy to see you. Go find her quickly."
Xie Yu'an had his own worries and didn't notice Xie Ren's strange expression.
"I'm waiting for her to come to me."
From yesterday until today, Qiao Yin didn't come.
Has it not been dealt with yet, or is there simply no way to deal with it?
