Leng Shuang looked at the man in front of her. He was handsome and handsome. He was dressed in a dark blue gown that highlighted his figure. He had sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, a high nose, sexy and attractive lips, fair skin, and his whole face exuded a radiant air.
He has a mature and steady charm that makes people unable to take their eyes away. He exudes a strong aristocratic temperament. His eyes are as bright as obsidian, as if they contain the vast sea. He looks like he has stepped out of a painting.
The characters that come out are the same.
Leng Shuang stared at this man blankly. She had never seen such a handsome man before.
"This young master...who are you?" Leng Shuang couldn't help but ask.
At this time, the man raised his head and looked at Leng Shuang. Looking at this extremely beautiful woman, his eyes darkened, and then he said, "You must be Miss Leng Shuang!"
Leng Shuang nodded, and then said: "I am Leng Shuang."
"I am a guard beside the emperor. I have been ordered to give this to you. I hope Miss Leng Shuang can make good use of it." As he said that, the man handed a jade pendant in his hand to Leng Shuang.
Leng Shuang took the jade pendant and studied it carefully, and then said: "You go down first, I want to be alone."
"Yes." The man saluted respectfully and then withdrew.
After the man left, Leng Shuang put the jade pendant away.
The next night, Leng Shuang took this jade pendant to an alley in the north of the city.
"This is what you want, this is the key," the man said, "Here is the treasure. I hope you can find this thing as soon as possible and don't delay for too long, otherwise we will also be in trouble."
Leng Shuang nodded and said, "I understand."
"Well, I hope you can find it soon. We still have things to do. You have to find this thing as soon as possible." After saying this, the man left.
After the man left, Leng Shuang stood at the entrance of the alley. She took a deep breath, then opened the door and walked in. This was the place where she once lived. Now there is only a yard full of weeds. Leng Shuang walked slowly into the house.
, everything in this room has changed. The flower pots on the windowsill have dried up, and the walls are covered with spider webs. The pillowcases on the bed are also covered with spider silk. Leng Shuang took a look, and then picked up the pillowcases.
Throw away.
"Madam, are you back?" A woman's voice came from outside the door.
"Well, yes, get ready to eat!" Leng Shuang ordered.
"Yes." The woman responded and then left.
Leng Shuang looked at the jade pendant in her hand, and she thought, maybe this matter has something to do with this jade pendant!
Leng Shuang came to her room with the jade pendant, then sat in front of the dressing mirror, and looked at herself in the mirror carefully. Although the skin looked pretty good, it was still far behind compared to Lin Mengxue. Leng Shuang
A bitter smile appeared on Shuang's face, and she put the jade pendant under the pillow. She decided that she still wanted to test it. After all, she couldn't wait any longer in her current situation.
Leng Shuang changed her clothes and then went to find Gu Tingyu.
Leng Shuang walked into Gu Tingyu's courtyard. As soon as she walked in, she saw Gu Tingyu sitting at the table drinking tea.
"Husband." Leng Shuang shouted.
Gu Tingyu watched Leng Shuang walk in, and then waved to Leng Shuang to come and sit next to him.
Leng Shuang walked over and sat next to Gu Tingyu.
"Madam, you are here." Gu Tingyu said, he gently touched Leng Shuang's hair, and then said: "You came to see me for something?"
Leng Shuang nodded, and then said: "Do you know this jade pendant?" Leng Shuang took out the jade pendant from his arms and placed it on the table.
Gu Tingyu looked at the jade pendant handed over by Leng Shuang, frowned, and asked, "What kind of jade pendant is this? I have never seen it before. Could it be... is this your personal accessory?"
Leng Shuang shook her head, and then said: "No, I only have this jade pendant. I bought it on the street when I was in Kyoto."
"Oh!" Gu Tingyu nodded.
"Is there anything strange about this jade pendant?" Leng Shuang asked again.
road.
"It's really strange. I have never seen it before. This jade pendant is carved from red jade and is not suitable for wearing on the body," Gu Tingyu explained.
"Ruby?"
Gu Tingyu nodded: "Yes, it is ruby, and the color of this piece of ruby is a bit purple."
Leng Shuang frowned. Could it be that his guess was wrong?
"I remember that my father was a businessman, and he recently fell ill and died. I wonder if he left the money to me. I plan to go to the Yamen tomorrow to check the origin of this jade pendant to see if he left it to me.
property." Leng Shuang said.
Gu Tingyu nodded and said, "Since you like this jade pendant, I'll give it to you, and you can keep it with you from now on!" After Gu Tingyu said that, he rummaged through the cabinet for a long time and finally found a box, and then put the
The box was handed to Leng Shuang, who put the jade pendant into the box.
"Madam, if you need anything, just call me. I'll leave first." After that, he left.
Leng Shuang looked at the box in her hand and sighed. In fact, she didn't know why. Ever since she married Gu Tingyu, she had always been worried in her heart, but she couldn't figure out what was going on. She could only wait until
It's time to observe slowly.
Leng Shuang opened the box and found two hairpins inside. Two huge gems were inlaid on the hairpins, which looked very beautiful.
Leng Shuang took out the two hairpins and inserted them into her head.
At this time, the door was pushed open, and Leng Shuang saw Gu Tingyu walking in.
Gu Tingyu looked at her, then smiled slightly and said, "It's so beautiful."
"Where did this hairpin come from?" Leng Shuang asked.
"As long as you like it." Gu Tingyu said.
"Husband, let's go to the City God's Temple tomorrow. I heard there is an old Taoist priest there who can help others solve mysteries." Leng Shuang said, "Let's go tomorrow morning. It's still early anyway."
Gu Tingyu nodded and said, "You make the decision!"
Leng Shuang was relieved when she heard that Gu Tingyu agreed to her request.
Leng Shuang was wearing the jade pendant on her wrist. Leng Shuang was lying on the bed unable to sleep. She opened her eyes and looked at the curtain above her head. It suddenly occurred to her that if her father had not left this jade pendant to her mother, maybe she would still be alive.
You can continue to enjoy a prosperous life, at least you don't need to live such a miserable life, but this is irreversible.
The more Leng Shuang thought about it, the more painful her heart became. She closed her eyes and turned her head away.
The next morning, Gu Tingyu woke up early. He got dressed and looked at the cold frost on the bed.
Gu Tingyu lowered his head and kissed her forehead, and then said: "Shuang'er, get up, let's go to the Chenghuang Temple to see the old Taoist priest."
Leng Shuang nodded, then got up from the bed, washed briefly, and then followed Gu Tingyu out, and the two of them came to the City God's Temple.
"What are we doing here?" Leng Shuang asked doubtfully.
Gu Tingyu pulled Leng Shuang toward the house where the old Taoist priest lived, and then knocked on the door of the house.
After a while, the old Taoist priest opened the door. When he saw Gu Tingyu, he was stunned, and then hurriedly knelt on the ground: "See you, Your Majesty."
Gu Tingyu helped the Taoist priest up and asked, "Are you that Taoist priest?"
"Yes, Your Majesty." The Taoist priest replied respectfully.
"I'm here to ask you a few questions. I hope you can tell the truth." Gu Tingyu said, "Who gave you this jade pendant?"
When the old Taoist priest heard Gu Tingyu's question, his face suddenly turned pale, and his lips trembled as he said, "My lord, please forgive me. I dare not lie to you. This jade pendant is indeed my master's relic."
"Which family does your master belong to?" Leng Shuang couldn't help but ask.
"Do you know where this jade pendant came from?" Gu Tingyu said looking at Leng Shuang.
"This..." Leng Shuang hesitated for a moment, but thinking of the nightmare she had last night, she finally gritted her teeth and said, "I think I know what's going on. This jade pendant should be mine.
Mother’s dowry.”
Gu Tingyu raised his head and looked at Leng Shuang in surprise, and asked, "Shuang'er, is everything you said true?"
Leng Shuang nodded and said: "Yes, this jade pendant is my mother's dowry, I once secretly hid it."
"Shuang'er, why didn't you tell me?" Gu Tingyu nervously grabbed Leng Shuang's hand and said, "If you had told me earlier, I would definitely not let you wear this thing."
Leng Shuang looked down at the jade pendant in her hand and said: "I don't want to mention this jade pendant anymore, because I have never forgotten this jade pendant. My mother died in the hands of the owner of this jade pendant. If I wear this jade pendant,
, I’m afraid I’ll never be able to get rid of this hatred.”
"Then what should we do now?" Gu Tingyu asked.
"I don't care, I only know that my mother died to save me, so I must take revenge." Leng Shuang said resolutely.
Gu Tingyu also fell into silence after hearing Leng Shuang's words.
"Let's go take a look!" Gu Tingyu said.
"Yes," Leng Shuang said, then followed Gu Tingyu and left the City God's Temple.
After the two people got on the carriage, they headed outside the city. Not long after they left the city gate, Gu Tingyu suddenly said: "Stop!"
"Stop?" Leng Shuang said, then opened the curtain and looked outside.
"I seem to see a familiar shadow!" Gu Tingyu frowned.
"A familiar shadow?" Leng Shuang looked at Gu Tingyu.
Gu Tingyu nodded and said, "I'm sure this is the back of the man we met in the cave."
"Are you sure?" Leng Shuang asked, with an excited look on her face. That man turned out to be Gu Tingyu's enemy.
"I'm sure," Gu Tingyu said, "I have seen this kind of spell in my books before."
"Then what should we do now?" Leng Shuang asked.
"Let's go after him. He's very fast, so we may not be able to catch up with him." This chapter has been completed!
