The Crown Prince in the Jade Pendant

Chapter 26: .The truth is revealed

Seeing Qin Yi, Chu Jinyao was a little guilty for some reason. Today Qin Yi reminded her in spite of the danger, but she insisted on going her own way. Chu Jinyao didn't think she was wrong, but she felt sorry for Qin Yi's intentions.

Qin Yi's eyes seemed to be covered with ice for thousands of miles. He sat across from him and said to Chu Jinyao, "Give me your hand."

When Qin Yi said these words, there was no ups and downs in his voice, but it was like a ten thousand-junk bow, with great pressure inside. Chu Jinyao obediently stretched out her hand.

Qin Yi held Chu Jinyao's fingertips with almost transparent hands and carefully checked Chu Jinyao's injuries. Chu Jinyao originally covered her hands with a thin layer of cocoons. After returning to Changxing Hou Mansion, she carefully raised her hands. The cocoons on her hands had faded a lot, and her skin was also fair. Because of this, after being beaten, her palms swelled up high, which made her look extremely terrible.

Qin Yi grew up in the court, and any of the women he came into contact with were not spoiled, delicate skin and tender flesh. He almost subconsciously felt that women were such delicate porcelains. Although he was not very happy in the Changxing Houfu these days, he gradually taught Chu Jinyao the rules, taught her how to write, and later he even carefully guided her inwardly. As long as Qin Yi was there, even the maidservant in the East Palace would not dare to behave like this, and Chu Jinyao, who was still under his care, was beaten like this.

Qin Yi said with a sullen face, Chu Jinyao gradually became a little nervous, and whispered to Qin Yi: "I'm fine, but it looks serious, but it doesn't hurt much. I grew up in stock when I was a child, unlike Miss Qianjin. Jin Gui, these are actually nothing to me."

Qin Yi touched Chu Jinyao's palm lightly, and she immediately took a breath uncontrollably. Knowing that his strength is still heavy, Qin Yi retracted his hand and looked at Chu Jinyao and sighed: "It's all like this, isn't it serious?"

Chu Jinyao couldn't reply. Qin Yi looked at it for a while and said, "I remember that there is a kind of ointment that has an amazing effect. After applying it, even the lashes can heal quickly without leaving scars. I remember it seems to be It's called... Yuhen Ointment, you ask the maids to find it in the warehouse."

"Yuhen ointment?" Chu Jinyao was surprised. "I remember hearing the Lin Family's cousin mention that Yuhen ointment is the best medicine for wounds, and it has always been tribute. How can I find the warehouse in the palace?"

Qin Yi squeezed his eyebrows: "Is it a tribute? I can't remember it. I'll do it."

Chu Jinyao was scared to death when she heard this, she quickly said: "Don't suddenly rise up to rob the tribute, this is to beheaded! I think these medicines are the same, just use the eldest sister's. I can see you , Others can see it logically, don't act rashly!"

Qin Yi didn't speak, but just said, "You don't have to worry about these. Give me the medicine. These plasters must be applied thickly, and they will be effective tomorrow morning."

"I only hurt one hand, so I can do it myself." Chu Jinyao picked up the medicine bottle and planned to apply the medicine by herself. Qin Yi is a man after all, even if she is a spirit, the more she feels this is inappropriate.

Qin Yi reached out to her and said lightly: "Give it to me."

Chu Jinyao felt the inexplicable pressure. She rarely saw Qin Yi look like this. She was so calm but she didn't dare to look at her. The movement of Chu Jinyao's hand paused, she looked up at Qin Yi, but was startled by the undercurrent in the opponent's eyes. She didn't dare to confront Qin Yi again, obediently put the medicine bottle into Qin Yi's hand.

Qin Yi unscrewed the medicine bottle and applied medicine to Chu Jinyao in a familiar and light manner. Qin Yi's hands were illusory, and his movements were very light, and he didn't touch Chu Jinyao at all. It was even more comfortable than when Ding Xiang was applied with medicine.

Chu Jinyao was in a daze for a while watching Qin Yi applying medicine to her meticulously. When she reacted again, she saw Qin Yi put in the medicine. He held the thin neck of the porcelain bottle with his slender fingers and gently put it aside. The elegant white porcelain bottle was lined with Qin Yi's exquisite cuffs, which looked very beautiful. Qin Yi was wearing a dress with narrow sleeves, and the fine lines on the cuffs could be vaguely seen. If it were a few days earlier, Chu Jinyao would be able to recognize it as a four-clawed python dragon pattern.

Qin Yi applied some medicine to Chu Jinyao, put away his things, raised his head and said to her: "You are tired today, let's go to sleep."

Chu Jinyao was wrong when he heard this: "Should I go to bed first? What about you?"

Qin Yi paused for a while, he was seventeen, and he was already at the age of marrying a concubine. Although in the eyes of the elders, he is still a prince of the country who needs to take care of him, but for Qin Yi, he has walked independently in the DPRK for many years and is already an adult man. Hearing what Chu Jinyao said, Qin Yi naturally thought of another important meaning that all men in the world would think of, and then he forced his thoughts back, and said to Chu Jinyao with a bit of hatred for iron and steel, "You speak. ...Over the brain!"

Chu Jinyao is simply inexplicable: "What's wrong?" Because Qin Yi needs to stay around the jade pendant, she always sleeps in the inner room and puts the jade pendant on the table in the next room. Sometimes Qin Yi is in a good mood, and Chu Jinyao would say goodnight to Qin Yi before going to bed. Therefore, when Chu Jinyao asked this sentence, she really did not understand what was wrong with it.

Chu Jinyao didn't expect it to be so simple, someone would want to bend it.

The tips of Qin Yi's ears are a little red, but he is a soul body, and he can barely see it in a light way. Qin Yi didn't want to explain, so he rushed to Chu Jinyao with his face: "Go to sleep, don't worry about so much!"

Chu Jinyao was pushed to sleep in a daze. She was still thinking about what is going on with this person.

Chu Jinyao was about to rest, and Qin Yi returned to Yupei and let Lixiang Platycodon and others come in to serve Chu Jinyao unloading her hair and changing clothes. After the lights in the inner room went out and the movement stopped, Qin Yi emerged from the jade pendant, avoided Ding Xiang and others, and walked towards the dark and silent Changxing Hou Mansion.

On the second day, Chu Zhu, Lin Xiyuan and others were leaving. Although there was a lot of trouble yesterday, the set date for returning to the palace cannot be changed. Chu Zhu got up early in the morning. After she had dressed up, she directed her people to move things into the car. Chu Jinmiao knew that Chu Zhu was leaving, and came early. After she entered the door, she timidly said to Chu Zhu, "Auntie."

Chu Zhu saw Chu Jinmiao and quickly pulled over to take a closer look. She let the maid continue to move things outside, pulled Chu Jinmiao into the inner room by herself, and sat down to comfort her: "Miao'er, your grandmother was angry yesterday, and I couldn't intercede with you. You won't blame Auntie?"

"Of course not." Chu Jinmiao smiled shyly and said, "Aunt is kind to me, I understand."

"That's good." Chu Zhu smiled relievedly. She looked at Chu Jinmiao's hand and said distressedly, "You have been hurt by a needle for a long time since you were young, and you were hit by a board yesterday. What is this? Mother is really true, it is not you who is clearly wrong, and you have to fight with you for anything!"

Chu Jinmiao also felt that she was wronged. When Chu Zhu said this, she almost shed tears. Chu Jinmiao said weepingly: "Auntie, don't talk about it, don't blame grandmother."

Who is to blame? Chu Jinmiao didn't go further, but Chu Zhu already understood. Chu Zhu didn't hit the spot and patted Chu Jinmiao's hand lightly, and said, "Miao'er, don't worry, when I return to the palace, I will tell the princess and my mother-in-law about these things in our family truthfully. They are honorable. , They are all sensible people, they must know who is the real uncut jade."

Chu Jinmiao raised his eyebrows with joy and quickly said, "Aunt Xie."

Chu Jinmiao was secretly proud, she had already made sense with Mother Deng, and now she still has an aunt helping to speak, she was sure of her position as a companion! Chu Jinmiao didn't expect the bitterness to be so easy to use, and she was able to get the position of accompaniment with a single meal. In that case, Chu Jinmiao no longer cared about yesterday's board and the old lady who gave the order. Let them go for a while, and when she becomes the magistrate of the county head, and when she is appreciated by the crown prince in the future, Mrs. Chu will naturally realize her mistake and take the initiative to talk to her.

Chu Jinmiao kept talking with Chu Zhu, and when the sun got higher, she accompanied Chu Zhu to sit in the old lady's room. When Chu Jinmiao entered, she happened to see Chu Jinxian sitting on the side. Seeing that it was them, Chu Jinxian got up and bowed in salute, and then faintly retracted her gaze. Chu Jinmiao snorted inwardly, and sat with Chu Zhu on the other side, secretly fighting against Chu Jinxian.

Chu Jinyao arrived soon, and she saluted the old lady, Chu Zhu and others, and then stood quietly aside. Her expression is very calm, if it weren't for her hands still wrapped in gauze, everyone thought that nothing happened yesterday.

When Mrs. Chu saw her daughter, she became more and more impressed, and asked them to be careful on the way. There are more and more people in Rongning Hall, and today Chu Zhu is leaving, and everyone is going to see him off. Chu Zhu and Mrs. Chu were reluctant to say goodbye, they saw a small servant running in outside, said to Chu Zhu, "Second Madam, the eldest son said that the preparations are almost done, it's time to go."

Chu Zhu had to get up. Seeing this, Mrs. Chu couldn't help but shed tears when she saw this. Chu Zhu also cried and said, "Mother, I'm leaving now, take care!"

The old lady and Chu Zhu both shed tears, and when the others saw each other, it was a good time to persuade them. Lin Xiyuan walked in to bid farewell to Mrs. Chu and saw their mother and daughter crying goodbye, saying, "Mrs. Chu doesn't need to be like this. In a few days, the grandmother will have her birthday, and she hopes the old lady will come. Then you and the second aunt will be able to meet again Up."

Old Madam Chu wiped away her tears and turned to crying into a smile: "The son is right, why bother crying like this? There will be more opportunities to meet in the future."

Chu Zhu also wiped her tears. Chu Zhu took Lin Xining, Lin Baohuan, Lin Baoying and Mrs. Chu to bid farewell, and then walked out. The others also followed. Old Madam Chu was an elder, and there was no reason for her to go out to send her daughter off, so she could only stay in the Rongning Hall. Others, such as Zhao, naturally have to personally send grandma out of the house.

Lin Xiyuan took two steps and suddenly said, "Mrs. Chu, I suddenly remembered that one of my collections of articles said that I could not find it. Xu was in Houbaosha yesterday sunset. Can I go and find it?"

Mrs. Chu quickly said: "The book that the elder son wrote about has fallen out, why didn't you tell me earlier? This is a big deal, just go find it soon!"

Chu Jinxian was with Mrs. Chu. She had planned to go out to send Chu Zhu and the others. After hearing Lin Xiyuan's words, she stopped inexplicably.

Lin Xiyuan went to hug the building, and after a while, he came back. Seeing Lin Xiyuan holding the book in her hand, the old lady was relieved and said: "Just find it, the elder is really polite. Just come and look for it directly when you drop something. Why bother overnight?" The old lady said, she closed her eyes. When it fell on the things in Lin Xiyuan's hands, she paused and asked, "My son, have you dropped two books?"

"No." Lin Xiyuan raised another thread-bound notebook and looked at Mrs. Chu calmly, "This seems to be a collection of poems by Miss Fourth."

The expression on Mrs. Chu's face suddenly changed. Chu Jinxian raised an eyebrow lightly and said, "Didn't the four girls say that she only has one book of poems. Was it torn yesterday?"

Standing at the door, Chu Jinmiao heard his name, and hurriedly walked in to see: "Grandma, you call me?"

She came in with a smile, and as soon as she passed the partition, she saw what Lin Xiyuan was holding. Her expression suddenly changed: "This..."

She wanted to say how could this be here! This is a manuscript of her collection of poems, which has been kept in her own house. She secretly used the manuscript to make a bewilderment yesterday. The original of her collection of poems was torn apart by the shrew of the third girl. Chu Jinmiao felt distressed, so she simply scammed and secretly went back to fetch the manuscript, gave everyone a rough glance, and put it away. So as not to be recognized by others. Then she deliberately called people out and left Chu Jinyao. When she came back, she asked the maid to take out the torn original from her sleeve and pretended to have just found it, so that all this could be planted on Chu Jinyao's head.

That's why when Chu Jinyao questioned her yesterday that she didn't have a copy, she panicked like that. Naturally, she did. Chu Jinyao guessed the truth accidentally.

Yesterday, Chu Jinmiao refused to admit it to death, and actually bluffed the Zhao clan and Mrs. Chu, and made everyone believe in her. It is believed that Chu Jinyao was jealous of Chu Jinmiao, so she tore up the collection of poems. Chu Jinmiao secretly brought the undamaged copy back to his house, intending to send it to Mother Deng to take it back to the palace the next day as the copy he drove out overnight. This move can not only show her talents to Princess Huailing, but also completely wipe out the evidence, killing two birds with one stone.

Chu Jinmiao arranged it well, and put the copy of it in a copy yesterday, and only waited for it to be given to Mother Deng at dawn. However, she didn't expect that when she woke up early this morning, the manuscript could not be found. Chu Jinmiao had been looking for it for a long time, and had a big temper in the house, but she still couldn't find it. Chu Jinmiao had no choice but to tell Mother Deng that her collection of poems had been torn up by Chu Jinyao, and that her hand was injured and she could not rush to control her, so she had to miss the appointment. Yesterday’s events have long been passed to Mother Deng's ears. Mother Deng understood her heart. Only when Chu Jinmiao was really ruined, she relieved Chu Jinmiao with a few words and didn't mention it again.

Things went so well after that, and it went so well that Chu Jinmiao forgot about it, and even neglected the abnormality of this inexplicably disappearing collection of poems. This time he was caught off guard and saw it in Lin Xiyuan's hands. Chu Jinmiao only felt that a thunderbolt hit her on the head in a sunny day, and he couldn't move or speak.

Old Madam Chu looked at the collection of poems in Lin Xiyuan's hand, and then at Chu Jinmiao's expression, what else she didn't understand. In this way, it seems strange that Lin Xiyuan suddenly proposed to go to Baoxia to find something. Isn’t it a coincidence that Lin Xiyuan just lost something. While looking for something in Baoxia, he also happened to find the collection of poems that should have been torn in Chu Jinmiao’s mouth. .

Mrs. Chu couldn't think of any way in it, but she was at least sure that Chu Jinmiao had lied. The old lady sneered in her heart again and again, so you Chu Jinmiao, don't talk about the girl who framed their Chu family, and even dared to hit her on her head! Her old lady Chu, is that so easy to calculate?

Mrs. Chu silently glanced at Chu Jinmiao, Chu Jinmiao suddenly sweated and almost knelt down. All the masters of the Chu family stood outside, and they all took Chu Zhu home lively outside, ignorant of what was happening inside the house. There are only three masters, Lin Xiyuan, Chu Jinxian, and the old lady standing in the room. If the old lady raises her voice a little bit and alarms others, Chu Jinmiao will be completely finished!

There were tears in Chu Jinmiao's eyes. She trembled, and whispered to Mrs. Chu, "Grandma, I don't know what's going on, you have to believe me! I really don't have anything. know!"

Old Madam Chu had a solemn face and did not speak, the lines on her mouth drooped deeply. Chu Jinyao was standing at the door. Seeing Chu Jinmiao had gone in for a long time, she felt that something was not right, so she turned around and entered. Chu Jinyao walked into the inner room and found that the atmosphere was not right. She didn't know what was going on, so she had to slow down and ask carefully: "Grandma, eldest sister, what's wrong?"

Chu Jinxian glanced at Chu Jinmiao, with an ironic smile in her eyes. Mrs. Chu seemed to have finally made up her mind. She said to Lin Xiyuan: "Since the elder son has found the book, everyone is happy. The girl in our family has nothing to do, so you can laugh at it. Come here, take the things from the elder son."

The old lady's maid stepped forward and took over the collection of poems from Lin Xiyuan. With this opportunity, Chu Jinyao could see clearly what Lin Xiyuan was holding.

Chu Jinyao opened her mouth in a slight surprise, then she thought of something, and immediately reduced her expression and quickly bowed her head. Lin Xiyuan watched Mrs. Chu take over the collection of poems, and knew in his heart that the ancestors of the Chu family did not intend to make this matter a big deal. Also, it is not a glorious thing that a girl who has been raising her for 13 years framed her newly-returned real daughter. But Mrs. Chu is the dominant person in the back house, as long as she understands who is right and who is wrong, that's enough.

Lin Xiyuan allowed the maid to collect the evidence, and let the old lady settle the matter. He smiled and saluted the old lady: "Mrs. Chu, I will retire first. I hope you will not come here for a banquet in the palace in the future."

Mrs. Chu nodded with a faint smile. Lin Xiyuan asked his entourage to collect things, and then walked outside. When he passed by Chu Jinyao, he stopped and said: "I heard that the fifth cousin suffered yesterday. The fifth cousin is proud of her, which is admirable. This is the jade mark ointment in the palace. This was given by Donggong when I went to Beijing last year. These things are just being dusted with me, so I might as well give them to my fifth cousin."

How could Chu Jinyao accept it and immediately declined. Mrs. Chu looked at her sleeves for a while, and said, "Jin Yao, since the son of the elder is a gift, you can accept it."

Let her accept it? Chu Jinyao's head is big, but the old lady said so. She can only bless Lin Xiyuan and obey: "Xie Shizi."

The old lady said again: "Mother Gu, you will send the son off for me."

"Yes." Madam Gu walked towards Lin Xiyuan with a smile on her face, and personally sent Lin Xiyuan out. Chu Jinyao turned sideways and avoided. After Lin Xiyuan and Madam Gu went out, Chu Jinyao raised her head and asked Chu Jinxian secretly with her eyes.

What's going on here?

Chu Jinxian just shook her head, motioning her to watch the changes.

After Lin Xiyuan went out, Chu Zhu's carriage could finally start. All the female relatives stood at the second door, Yin Yin sent Chu Zhu away. In Rongning Hall, Mrs. Chu bit the table bitterly and shouted angrily: "You won't kneel down for me!"

Chu Jinmiao's knees softened and he could no longer stand, and knelt to the ground with a plop. Chu Jinmiao felt scared when he thought of the book of poems that appeared inexplicably. She was cold all over her body and couldn't figure out why.
