Chapter 44 Where did your jade pendant come from?
When Jiang Jinshuang finished washing and came to the main hall, Si Ning and Lu Xiao were already sitting there.
Seeing her approaching, Lu Xiao stood up from the guest seat and bowed slightly towards Jiang Jinshuang: "I have met His Highness."
Jiang Jinshuang smiled slightly and sat on the main seat: "Lu... Master Su Xiu, why did you come to see me?"
Si Ning also knew about Lu Xiao, but for safety reasons, Jiang Jinshuang still called him "Su Xiu".
Lu Xiao pursed his lips slightly: "I heard that Your Highness went to the palace yesterday. I should have met His Highness the Crown Prince."
"I did see the emperor brother, what happened?" Jiang Jinshuang was confused.
Lu Xiao took a deep breath and said calmly: "Has your highness heard of Weisheng Pavilion?"
Jiang Jinshuang paused and nodded slightly: "I've heard that there is no one in the world who is in charge of intelligence and killers."
Heaven knows seven points, micro-generation three points.
It is said that Wei Sheng Pavilion has the most complete and thorough intelligence network in the world. If you want to know something, you can get clues as long as you pay the same price.
Similarly, Wei Sheng Pavilion supports countless top killers, and can assassinate anyone as long as they can afford the price.
Lu Xiao said seriously: "I found the master of Weisheng Pavilion a few days ago and bought some information from him."
"The intelligence says that the whereabouts of the general's tiger talisman is closely related to His Highness the Crown Prince."
Jiang Jinshuang narrowed her eyes and tapped her finger bones on the table rhythmically, thinking about Lu Xiao's words.
Si Ning just glanced at Lu Xiao, then lowered his head, took a sip of tea, and remained silent.
"So, Mr. Su Xiu came here today to ask me if I have discovered anything?"
Lu Xiao nodded: "Your Highness the Princess and the Prince have known each other for a long time. If there are any changes in him, Your Highness should be the most aware."
Jiang Jinshuang recalled for a moment: "I'm sorry, Mr. Su, as far as I know, the emperor didn't reveal anything about the Tiger Talisman."
"Moreover, Brother Huang seems to have always thought that the Tiger Talisman is in my hand."
Lu Xiao frowned and was speechless for a moment.
Jiang Jinshuang took a deep breath and curled her lips: "Master Su Xiu said, can you trade with Weisheng Pavilion?"
Lu Xiao nodded: "Yes."
"That's a coincidence." The smile on Jiang Jinshuang's face deepened, "Then I'll trouble Mr. Su Xiu to help me arrange it. I also want to make a deal with the master of Weisheng Pavilion."
Lu Xiao was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, I'll go get ready, and I'll contact His Highness again later."
"Thank you Mr. Su."
After chatting for a few more words, Lu Xiao stood up and left.
Jiang Jinshuang looked at Lu Xiao's leaving figure and sat back on the main seat.
Si Ning smiled and pushed the tea she had just made to Jiang Jinshuang: "Master Su Xiu, I want to hide something from you."
Jiang Jinshuang took the tea and took a sip: "Inkstone told me the same thing."
"Then your Highness still believes in him so much?"
"He is the deputy general next to Uncle Wang Ruiyang. Even if he hides something from me, I still believe in Uncle Wang's vision."
Si Ning nodded, but then said: "I just saw the jade pendant on Mr. Su Xiu's waist."
Jiang Jinshuang nodded: "I gave him a promise."
Si Ning was so smart, he guessed it with just a few words.
He nodded slightly and asked about other things: "Speaking of Inkstone Jue, why haven't I seen him much since I came to Beijing?"
Jiang Jinshuang smiled helplessly: "You are getting angry with me."
"Huh?" Si Ning's tone rose slightly, with confusion on his face.
She explained: "The palace is heavily guarded. I didn't let him follow me into the palace when we went to the banquet. He was unhappy."
When Si Ning heard this, he unconsciously curled his lips: "His Royal Highness himself said that he wanted Yan Jue to follow and protect him. Now that he is not allowed to enter the palace to protect him, he will naturally be unhappy."
Jiang Jinshuang held her chin and sighed: "Oh, that's right."
A cup of tea is used up.
She stood up and walked out the door.
"Where are you going, Your Highness?" "Coax people."
……
Lu Xiao walked out of the princess mansion and met Pei Du while walking on Chang'an Street.
The man came out of a jewelry store, and the two met unexpectedly.
Lu Xiao curled his lips and bowed slightly towards the man: "Su Xiu has met Mr. Chief Assistant."
The man has a cold face and a graceful figure in the spring light. He is wearing a snow robe today, like a jade sculpture.
The distant and cold gaze passed across his face and landed on his waist for some reason.
The jade pendant on the waist is in the shape of a pair of phoenixes. The two phoenixes are about to fly and hover around each other, making the necklace lifelike.
Lu Xiao stood up and noticed the man's gaze. He smiled and said, "Sir, what's wrong?"
"Where did you get the jade pendant around your waist?" The man's voice was cold and indifferent, noble and without desire.
Following the man's eyes, Lu Xiao glanced at the jade pendant around his waist.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
As if remembering some good memories, he smiled softly: "His Highness gave this to Su."
"His Highness said that Su has no relatives or connections in the capital, and has no deep foundation. This jade pendant is as if His Highness is here in person, and can be used by you."
Naturally, Lu Xiao couldn't tell the truth about his deal with Jiang Jinshuang, so he made up a lie.
The man said nothing.
The breeze blew the hem of his clothes, and his snow robe was embroidered with two or three beautiful red plum blossoms, which were so lifelike that they seemed to grow through the fabric.
"Since you have nothing to do, sir, I will take my leave first."
With that said, Lu Xiao took two steps back and prepared to leave.
But before he could lift his feet, a heavy jade tablet was thrown into his hand.
Lu Xiao took a closer look.
——It is the first auxiliary token.
In front of him, the man's voice was still cold and distant, his emotions indistinct.
"I'll trade with you."
——
After passing through the main hall courtyard of the Princess Mansion, Jiang Jinshuang came to the East Side Hall.
No one comes here all year round and it is very secluded.
There is a pear tree planted in the courtyard, which has been there since the establishment of the Princess Mansion.
The white petals fluttered in the wind, covering the ground with white snow.
After passing through the round arch, Jiang Jinshuang heard the sound of sword wind.
Yan Jue is practicing his sword in the courtyard.
A seven-point broken sword was held in his hand, with murderous intent evident.
Under the sun, the man is dressed in a black robe like ink, his sword is shining brightly, and his figure is as straight as a swimming dragon.
Suddenly, he stepped on the flying flowers in the air and spun up. The dazzling rainbow light passed over his body, and even picked up the falling flowers around him, flying together.
Jiang Jinshuang looked around and picked up a bunch of pear branches at her feet.
She used a flower branch to hold a sword flower, and she easily broke through the petal barrier and stabbed towards the man!
The man turned around suddenly, and the broken sword collided with the flower branch, making a "crack" sound.
His eyebrows were indifferent and calm, and the hilt of the sword rotated half a circle from his hand to deflect her flower branch, and the hilt fell on his other hand!
The flower branch was shaken by the sword hilt, and the pear blossoms on the flower branch fell to the ground.
Jiang Jinshuang took a few steps back and looked at the petals falling on the ground with a look of regret: "My pear blossom..."
Yan Jue put away his sword.
The petals flying around her body disappeared from the sword wind, and fell like flying butterflies.
The petals fell on his shoulders and scabbard, and also on the top of Jiang Jinshuang's hair.
Seeing this, Yan Jue frowned slightly.
He said nothing, took a few steps forward, and picked the petals on her head.
