"Our girl said that she was just returning something, so she wouldn't come in person. She was afraid that her lack of courtesy last time would upset the princess."
Baolan said this with a smile, looking very happy.
Bai Lu frowned, obviously unhappy. Gu Qingsheng was a princess, and was not on equal footing with Luo Zhaozhao. Now she even dared to call a maid to intimidate them. This was really lawless.
Gu Qingsheng glanced at Bai Lu and told her to be patient.
"In that case, Miss Luo is quite thoughtful. It's better for her not to come."
She said it directly to Baolan's face without giving her any face
"You returned things last time, and you returned things this time too. I don't know how many things you picked up."
After saying this, Bai Lu chuckled, quickly covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and coughed lightly for a while.
Baolan glared at Bai Lu secretly, raised his head with disdain, and handed a jade pendant in his arms to Gu Qingsheng.
"My lady, can you take a look at this thing and see if you recognize it?"
The jade pendant was of excellent quality, warm and smooth, and seemed to have a hint of warmth.
The two words "Changle" engraved on the jade pendant are very conspicuous.
This is Gu Qingsheng’s personal jade pendant.
When she came to Luofo Temple, Gu Qingsheng was still wearing it, but she didn't know where she lost it recently. Because she had a lot of things to do recently, she forgot about the jade pendant.
"I don't know... where did Miss Baolan pick up this jade pendant?"
Gu Qingsheng laughed back.
Since Baolan dared to come to me alone with this jade pendant, it seems that he has a bigger handle to threaten me than last time.
"It seems that the princess has acknowledged that this jade pendant belongs to her."
Baolan Road
"This jade pendant was found in the spring water when I was helping the masters of Luofo Temple clean the spiritual spring in the back mountain last time."
After she said this, Gu Qingsheng understood what she meant.
The water of the spiritual spring flows down from the top of the mountain. Generally, it is not easily cleaned unless there is something wrong. The last time it was cleaned was probably because the body of the man in black was found by the spring.
Now the entire Luofo Temple is in panic because of the corpse of the man in black. Baolan found her jade pendant when she was cleaning the spiritual spring that day. Isn't this a feast that was obviously delivered to her door?
It turns out that he was waiting for me here.
Gu Qingsheng narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the jade pendant in front of him, smacked his lips, and suddenly stretched out three fingers.
"Thirty lashes of the cane, I'll give you a chance."
"There should be no bloodshed in Luofo Temple. When you return to Jinchu, go to Prince Duan's mansion to receive your punishment. This is your punishment for stealing my jade pendant. Since you are Miss Luo's personal maid, I will spare your life."
This made Baolan stunned for a while, and suddenly he laughed very sarcastically.
"As expected, I guessed it."
"The princess is not someone you can easily get along with. She's so quick to smear someone she's not. Even with the evidence right before her eyes, she still wants to slander them!"
"Whether it is slander or not is up to the princess to decide."
Bai Lu continued with a sentence, her eyebrows lowered and she was very well-behaved.
"The princess asked you to continue, so you continued. The princess only gave you thirty lashes, but you didn't thank her and are still making such a fuss."
The two of them were arguing with each other and neither of them gave in.
Gu Qingsheng took a quick look at the jade pendant and saw some undried marks inside it through the sunlight. There seemed to be light flowing in his eyes.
"Bai Lu is right, thank you."
She lowered her head and imitated Baolan's smiling face, which made Baolan feel very uncomfortable.
"You are really going too far!"
Baolan suddenly yelled, and no one expected her to rush over and grab Gu Qingsheng's sleeve and start tearing it.
Bai Lu was startled by this desperate state, and she hurried forward to pull Bao Lan
"You're so brave!"
Maybe it's the truth that even a rabbit bites when it's angry. Baolan's eyes were red and wet. Her two hands pulled Gu Qingsheng randomly and refused to let go. She was muttering to herself and her lips were trembling.
"You...you...our young lady clearly has no grudge against you. Why do you keep bullying her?!"
"Today, we are simply returning the jade pendant to its original owner. We have no other intentions. Why do you just dislike us? You are simply going too far!"
Listening to Baolan's mumbling, Gu Qingsheng felt his clothes being pulled and torn, and after being surprised, he could only feel helpless.
If she didn't know Baolan and Luo Zhaozhao well enough, she might have believed what Baolan said.
When Bai Lu was beaten to death in her previous life, Bao Lan was supervising. It is said that she tortured Bai Lu a lot when she was about to die.
How could such a person go crazy over such a thing?
"Bai Lu."
Gu Qingsheng seemed to be getting impatient with being pulled by the two people and shouted
"Still not fighting?"
As Gu Qingsheng finished his words, a loud slap pierced the air!
A huge pain rushed straight to Baolan's face!
"Yes, Princess."
Bai Lu's palm had not yet fallen. She had used all her strength in that slap. She was gasping for breath at this moment, but her voice was still full of energy.
From her red palms, it can be seen that Bai Lu showed no mercy in this attack. Bao Lan was even hit so hard that she lost her balance and fell to the ground. When she raised her head again, her face was full of resentment and disbelief.
His cheeks were swollen and he glared at Bai Lu fiercely.
"What are you looking at?"
The jade pendant was thrown next to Baolan's hand, and then a pair of gold-thread mandarin duck embroidered shoes stepped on the jade pendant, and the foot job was only a few centimeters away from Baolan's fingers.
"Just with a jade pendant, you think you can pull me down and threaten me? Where do you get the guts?"
"Who the hell are you? I'm injured right now, and you still dare to pull and hit me like this? Do you really think your daughter is tired of living? Do you want to go ahead and take her place?"
The threat in her words was too obvious. Baolan couldn't help but shudder, then pursed her lips tightly, unwilling to speak anymore.
When he raised his toes, Gu Qingsheng found that the jade pendant under his feet had been crushed into two pieces, and the beautiful Changle handwriting had also been separated.
"Get out of here!"
Baolan hurriedly got up, rolling and crawling away from Gu Qingsheng's feet as if trying to escape.
But just going out like this is enough to attract attention.
After Baolan disappeared from view, Bailu picked up the jade pendant with some regret.
"What are you doing, Princess? Even if you're angry, don't take it out on the jade pendant. It's a gift from the emperor. If the emperor sees it, the consequences will be..."
"I'm not angry."
Gu Qingsheng stood up and brushed off the wrinkles on his body, changing his previous state of worry.
"You just said it, this is a gift from the emperor."
Taking half of the jade pendant from Bai Lu's hand, the more he looked at it, the deeper Gu Qingsheng's smile became.
"How could I crush such a gift from the Emperor so easily?"
