Chapter 233 Golden hairpin jade pendant

The dust-washing banquet for General Zhou Ke was scheduled three days later. Zhou Ke has been very busy dealing with government affairs in recent days due to the restoration of the emperor's order. Zhou Ke never spoke to Man Xiu about the egg-shaped jade pendant, and Man Xiu also fell clean. Anyway, he really didn't know the whereabouts of the jade pendant.

It's just that Zhou Xinran seems to be a little troublesome. Since Zhou Ke sent someone to inform her of the news that he would stay with Qin Manxiu to listen to in the future, Zhou Xinran was surprised and even angrily went to his father to please people. Unfortunately, whether it was Zhou Xinran's angry questioning or the woman's good crying, Zhou Ke completely ignored it. He still went his own way and did not say anything about Qin Manxiu, and finally scolded her fiercely.

From childhood to age, although Zhou Ke did not love him very much, he was reprimanded for the first time.

In the past few days, if he can, Man Xiu still chooses to avoid Zhou Xinran. He is *, and he will settle accounts on his own. He still understands this truth. Fortunately, since Zhou Xinran was reprimanded by Zhou Ke, she has not stepped out of Xinyuan for two consecutive days, and Man Xiu has not gone, and there has been no chance to meet her to revenge.

Tomorrow is the dust washing banquet, and the Zhou family is very busy.

The housekeeper came to look for Man Xiu, saying that Long Live Master will also come tomorrow and asked him to play the piano to cheer up. Therefore, he asked him to go to the instrument room in advance to register and lead the guqin. In addition, by the way, go to the lady and miss that the dress for welcoming the holy driver tomorrow has been changed again as required. Please try it on. If there is any discomfort, the tailor will be in the house and can be adjusted and changed at any time.

It's okay to send a message to his wife. Xinyuan and Manxiu don't want to go. Except for Shen Yuncheng, the other people in there didn't regard him as a human at all. And now, because of him, Zhou Xinran was reprimanded by Zhou Ke again. You can imagine what will happen when he goes there.

It's just a word, I hope it's okay...

Man Xiu comforted himself and bravely went to Xinyuan. He didn't think about it. When he turned a corner outside Xinyuan, he heard someone talking. Man Xiu heard the voice like Shen Yuncheng and thought it was just right to pass the words to Shen Yuncheng, and he would also tell Zhou Xinran. As a result, Man Xiu was about to follow the sound to find someone, but there was another gloomy voice, which sounded somewhat similar to the voice of the man in black he saw that day. Driven by curiosity, Manxiu stopped moving forward.

"Father, I..."

"Well, there is no need to explain! You clearly knew that he was Qin Manxiu. Why didn't you tell me at that time?

"Godfather, Yuncheng doesn't know that the godfather is looking for Qin Manxiu. The young lady ordered me to capture him at that time. I just followed his orders.

"You captured him in the barracks at that time, so have you seen him meet Ge Yimin?"

"back to the godfather, Yuncheng, Yuncheng..."

"You saw me, didn't you?"

"Godfather, forgive Yuncheng's boldness, so Ge Yimin was killed by his righteous father?"

"What do you ask this?"

"Godfather, you took me in when I was desperate and passed on my martial arts. You are the reborn parents of Yuncheng. Yuncheng is very grateful to my adoptive father. But Yuncheng also remembers that his adoptive father once taught him to be a good man and be loyal and filial. Lord Ge is upright, loyal to the king and loves the people. Why did the adoptive father kill him?

"What did I do to kill him! You are so heartless! I just got the news that Chen Tao in the army was Qin Manxiu, and I knew that he had an appointment with Ge Yimin at midnight, so I went to check it out. Unexpectedly, when I went there, Na Ge Yimin had already died. I was about to leave, but when I saw someone coming, it was Qin Manxiu, I wanted to capture him and come back to recover his life. Unexpectedly, I was captured by you. I was in Xinyuan, but I went all over the country to look for people. It's really ridiculous!"

"What the godfather said?"

"When did your adoptive father lie to you!"

There seemed to be a sigh of relief from Shen Yuncheng. It turned out that the man in black was Shen Yuncheng's adoptive father. He was really easy to cheat. It should be said that he would rather persuade himself to believe what this godfather said. Man Xiu sneered in his heart.

"Why did the general arrest Qin Manxiu?"

"You will know sooner or later, and it's okay for me to tell you. Do you know that Qin Manxiu's father was Qin Wei, the deputy camp on Qinfeng Road in Shaanxi in his early years?

"Qin Wei? I have heard about it. Wasn't he convicted of betraying the enemy and killing Lord Hu's concubine Hua Yun, and then captured and killed?

"Yes. But he took something away when he fled the barracks.

"Things? What is it?

"It is a gift from the court to Xixia, which is worth a great value."

"Oh? Does the general think that as soon as Qin Wei dies, the treasure will be in Qin Manxiu's hands, so he ordered his father to chase him back?

"Exact."

"As far as I know, Qin Manxiu once fell off a cliff and was rescued by Ye Zilian. Later, he was sold to the famous Hundred Flowers Museum in the capital as a prostitute because he was guilty of Master Ye. If there is such a precious thing, can it still be on him?

"Ye�, I've also been to Yefu and Baihua Hall, but I didn't find anything like that. I doubt that he is hiding somewhere, just to save his life, and I don't want to say it.

"Yes, I have been in contact with him. Although this person is a humble person on the surface, he is actually very assertive in his heart, able to bend and stretch, and even a little stubborn. If it is true as the godfather said, if he doesn't say it, we will never know.

"That is to say, this is a national thing, and it is reasonable to recover it, but he only regarded it as his father's relic and refused to return it. What can he do?"

"Since the godfather is a gift of the imperial court, it should be precious and rare, and it is reasonable to recover it. However, how can the general let his righteous father come out? Isn't there any other secret here?"

"I'm not very clear about this either. But since this is the general's order, I will resolutely carry out it. As soon as the dust washing banquet is over tomorrow, I will be ordered to go to Hangzhou. You are also familiar with Qin Manxiu. Keep an eye on him and don't let him do anything unfavorable to the general. I always feel that it is not so easy for him to come to Zhoufu as a slave. A few years ago, he was accidentally arrested. How can he be willing to choose to be a slave a few years later? I'm afraid there are other articles in it.

"Did the godfather also say this to the general?"

"I said! How did you say it! Unfortunately, the general didn't listen to my advice and insisted on leaving him by his side.

"Godfather, please rest assured that Yuncheng will not live up to his adoptive father's trust."

"Okay, long live tomorrow at the dust washing banquet, and the whole dynasty will also come to celebrate. You should be alert and protect the safety of Zhoufu."

"Yes, godfather."

The man in black has left, and Shen Yuncheng has also left. Man Xiu showed himself from his hiding place. Shen Yuncheng was the adopted son of the man in black. Although the man in black told him some truth, there were obviously many places where he lied to him. He doesn't trust him, at least not completely!

Shen Yuncheng, another breakthrough, maybe, what can we know from him?

For Shen Yuncheng, Man Xiu is not disgusted, but he doesn't like it. He was the one who arrested himself to Xinyuan, but it was he who saved him from humiliation or death in Xinyuan. He is Zhou Ke's person, but he is not completely trusted. Can he be used for himself?

Man Xiu felt that he needed to talk to Shen Yuncheng.

Wait, a gift? The gift given by the court to Xixia? Why is this word so familiar? By the way, it's the case of Guo Bai and Yu Nan. Aren't they killed by the whole family because they were involved in a case of private imitation of the gifts given by the imperial court?

Guo Bai, the golden hairpin, Yu man, gift... His parents talked about the golden hairpin before separating from him, and his mother also specifically told herself that there was a great secret in the golden hairpin, so that he must take it and wait for him to stand out in the future to avenge their grievances. Mrs. Yu once said that Guo Bai had built a hairpin that was somewhat similar but not the same as the golden hairpin he held. Has anyone moved that hairpin? Or is it Guo Bai himself who moves the hairpin?

The jade craftsman privately carved a gift from the court to Xixia. Remember that when Lin Yuqing asked to help inquire about the murder of Guo Yu, Lin Yuqing told him that he found a pattern of the jade given to Xixia by the court in the man's home. And this pattern is exactly what Guo Bai drew for him. The problem is that at that time, it was clearly said that a deserter named Xie Zhongxiao in the military camp on Qinfeng Road, Shaanxi Province, stole gifts. After fleeing to Hangzhou, he was captured and implicated Guo Bai and Yu. It is understandable that Guo Bai and Yu Nan know each other. It is understandable that Guo Bai gave Yu Nan a pattern to imitate. Only Xie Zhongxiao, why didn't he choose other places and other people, but chose Hangzhou Guo Bai to contact? What is his relationship with Guo Bai?

Jade, gifts, style drawings... Although Manxiu has never seen that pattern, will it be the egg-shaped jade pendant? Yu man was captured and killed as a bad man, but it seems that there is no record in the case file whether the real gift has been recovered. If it is not recovered, where is the real jade pendant?

Thinking of this, Manxiu was shocked, egg-shaped jade pendant, golden hairpin! No wonder I always felt a little strange when I looked at the golden hairpin before, because it was too heavy. At that time, it was only regarded as the weight of being filled with gold in the cup, but now in retrospect, it was actually filled with other things.

Jade pendant, if possible, is in the cup-shaped decoration of the golden hairpin!

The hairpin is now in Cher's hands. Of course, his decision is right. If you didn't give it to Xue'er at that time, you would have been detained by Zhou Xinran. In case you turn into Zhou Ke's hands again, with their intelligence, it is inevitable that they can't solve this mystery. And Cher is now banned by the emperor for a year, and no one can see her. When Man Xiu parted, he deliberately whispered Yunxuan to let Xiao Fei protect Xue'er. I don't know what kind of intention he said it at that time, but now, this decision is also right.

What needs to be determined now is whether the pattern is the appearance of an egg-shaped jade pendant in the case file of Guo Yu's two families; what is the identity of Xie Zhongxiao, the deserter who stole goods to Hangzhou at that time; and whether it is the egg-shaped jade pendant in the cup-shaped decoration of the golden hairpin Son.

The gentleman said that there were still secrets in the jade pendant. Then open it again. He really wants to see what kind of thing his father exchanged his life for!
