Adi's eyes lit up and her fingers began to move, almost wanting to take it for herself.
Fortunately, she still had some sense and quickly came to her senses. There was nothing valuable in this room, but there was such a seemingly priceless pearl, and it was placed under the pillow. If it didn't have a special meaning, she wouldn't believe it.
Adi swallowed her saliva, but still refrained from doing anything. She put the pearl back to its original place and carefully stuffed it under the pillow. She adjusted the quilt twice and saw that it was no different from the original one before she slowly stood up. Get up and make the bed flat.
Afterwards, she carefully tidied up the dressing box, cupboard and other places that she had just looked through, and then quietly exited Lan Shuiqing's house.
As soon as she went out, she ran quickly towards Lan Shuiyuan's yard.
Lan Shuiyuan and Lan Shuitian had just gotten up and were sitting aside having breakfast.
After a few days of rest, I finally recovered from the injury. Although it still hurts, I put a thick cushion under my buttocks and I was finally able to sit normally.
Seeing Adi running over, Lan Shuiyuan put down the chopsticks in his hand, with expectation in his eyes.
Adi recounted the discovery of the pearl in the Shuixi Garden, and finally said with certainty, "... I feel that it must be something given to her by the lady's lover."
Lan Shuiyuan laughed sinisterly, and his expression instantly turned gloomy and ferocious.
Then, she elegantly picked up the handkerchief and wiped her mouth, looked at her maid, and asked, "Did any of the noble people who came here in the past few days give me Blue Water Pearls?"
The maid thought carefully and shook her head, "No, and even if there were, they should have all been locked in the warehouse. After all, these things are not given by ordinary people, and the Madam also values it, so she is afraid that if there is less or it is It was damaged, so now there are two keys in the warehouse, one is in the possession of the eldest lady, and the other is in the possession of the dowager."
The smile on Lan Shuiyuan's face turned gloomy again, and he said to Adi, "The betrothal gift list that Princess Xiu brought that day is in the hands of Nanny Song. Find an opportunity to reveal it to Nanny Song, just say yesterday I saw a suspicious person wandering around the warehouse, I am afraid that he is trying to fix the princess's betrothal gift, so let her find an opportunity to verify and compare, don't miss it."
"My slave understands."
"Go back and check the bills of what Lan Shuiqing and Wu have acquired over the years. Oh, if these three places don't show the whereabouts of the pearl, even if the pearl is not a token of love with the man, it is still an item of unknown origin. "
Lan Shuitian responded, "But one pearl is not enough to prove her crime now. It would be better to catch her and get both."
What he said made sense. Lan Shuiyuan lowered his eyes and thought about it slowly for a while. After a while, he raised his head and said to her, "I think it's better to find my uncle tomorrow and ask him to get some experts for us to come over day and night." Monitor Lan Shuiqing, if there is any movement, you can catch it immediately."
"Good idea." The two looked at each other and quickly reached a consensus.
At this moment, Lan Shuiqing and the Lan sisters, who had been inactive for a few days without realizing it, began to jump up and down again.
She was sitting against the wall of the carriage, looking a little tired.
Where did that person go? She deliberately delayed for a while before going out, but she didn't see him appear again.
Apparently, he left again.
We haven't seen each other for many days, so we only exchanged a few words.
He seems to be very busy and I don’t know when the next meeting will be. I didn’t have time to ask him where he lived…
"Miss..." Yanzhi called her weakly. The lady's expression today was so strange, she looked very worried.
Yanzhi felt that as the most trusted maid around the young lady, she should share her worries and solve her problems.
But Lan Shuiqing didn't seem to hear her words, and still leaned against the wall of the carriage, her body swaying as the carriage moved forward, as if her soul was wandering for nine days.
Rouge could only sigh and opened the curtains to look at the pedestrians walking on the road outside.
When the carriage passed a notice board, Rouge's eyes suddenly widened and she hurriedly shouted, "Miss, Miss."
At this moment, she couldn't care less and quickly grabbed Lan Shuiqing's hand.
Lan Shui leaned forward and almost bumped into her. She raised her head, frowned slightly and looked at Rouge, "What are you doing?"
Yanzhi quickly let go of his hand and pointed to the notice board outside and said, "There is a notice posted over there, which seems to say that the people who were persecuted by the Seventh Prince sixteen years ago must be rehabilitated. Just now, I seemed to see the old man of the Wu family. name."
Although Rouge was a maid, Lan Shuiqing loved reading and writing, so she also recognized a lot of words. She could see the notices on it very clearly.
Lan Shuiqing stiffened suddenly and hurriedly opened the curtains.
But the carriage was already a little far away at this moment, and the bulletin board that Rouge talked about could not be seen at all.
She was about to ask the coachman to stop, but Yanzhi grabbed her and said, "Miss, we'll see when we get back. It's getting late now, and the little princess Nian Nian is still waiting. We can't miss it when we go to build the palace." hour.”
Lan Shuiqing took a deep breath and nodded, Yan Zhi was right.
But now her heart was beating fast and her breathing was a little rapid. The emperor wants to give her grandfather justice. If this is true, then the mother will be very happy to hear it.
And I don’t know where my uncle is now. If he gets the news, he might show up.
For a moment, the announcement made by Rouge completely cleared away the depression she had just felt, and she finally came back to her senses.
The carriage continued to move forward smoothly, and finally stopped in front of the gate of Prince Xiu's Mansion two-quarters of an hour later.
Standing at the door waiting for her was Wenya. Wenya had been with Niannian and patted her hand.
This was the second time Lan Shuiqing had seen her, and he already knew her identity. I heard that his father was one of the three great guards of Prince Xiu and was trusted by Prince Xiu. His mother was serving by Princess Xiu, the same Aunt Hongye that day.
Looking at her relationship with Niannian, you can tell that she is different from ordinary servants of the palace.
Lan Shuiqing nodded slightly at her, and Wen Ya, like Hong Ye, was particularly kind when she smiled.
"Miss Lan, Nian Nian is waiting for you inside. I will take you there now."
Lan Shuiqing paused and asked in a low voice, "I want to visit Princess Xiu first. I wonder where Princess Xiu is now?"
This is the most basic courtesy.
Wen Ya laughed and led her inside, "The princess went to the palace early in the morning and chatted with the Queen Mother. She was not at the house."
Lan Shuiqing was stunned for a moment, but didn't say much. He nodded and followed Wen Ya to the herbal garden.
Nian Nian was squatting on the ground when she heard footsteps and turned around quickly.
