Song Ziyu asked calmly, "What happened just now?"
The two men did not expect that the commander would ask about this matter, but they did not take it seriously.
He just wanted to find evidence to bring down the Marquis of Zhenbei.
"Sir, when we first entered, we saw Meng Yuanzhi trying to forcibly take this woman away as a concubine. Fortunately, you scared Meng Yuanzhi so much that he peed and shit away..."
Song Ziyu thought of Meng Yuanzhi's reputation as a sex-crazed maniac in the capital and said coldly, "If Meng Yuanzhi does it again, arrest him and let him spend a few days in jail."
Here, Ning Yu took Manman and Feng'er to find an inn to stay in.
Thinking of the small amount of silver, Ning Yu frowned slightly. She knew that prices in the capital were high, but she didn't expect them to be so expensive.
The remaining money was not enough to support their lives in the capital.
Therefore, I had no choice but to sell the jade pendant given by Ji Yun.
Anyway, the bastard doesn't recognize her anymore, so it's not too much for her to sell the jade pendant.
The system's voice suddenly rang in Ning Yu's mind, "Host, the man in the restaurant is a high-quality man, only slightly inferior to Ji Yun."
"oh."
Ning Yu said perfunctorily, "Let's talk about it later."
When she heard Meng Yuanzhi call her "Commander", she knew that this man was in a high position and it would not be easy to take him down.
And she has no interest now.
Ning Yu found the jade pendant from his luggage. Under the light, he could see a faint glow moving.
In order to get a good price, Ning Yu specially found a pawnshop with the emblem of Ji Yun's mother's family and handed the jade pendant directly to the shopkeeper.
"Shopkeeper, I want to pawn this jade pendant. Can you tell me how much it costs?"
The shopkeeper's pupils shrank slightly, and his heart was filled with astonishment. He managed to calm down and said, "Excuse me, young lady, how did you get this jade pendant?"
"Someone gave it to me." Ning Yu's tone seemed nonchalant, as if the jade pendant was not that precious.
Ning Yu's tone gradually became impatient, "Can it be sold?"
But I was secretly thinking, could it be that the jade pendant given by Ji Yun cannot be sold?
The shopkeeper thought about it and decided to accept it.
When Ning Yu saw the 1,000 taels of silver, she smiled happily. She didn't expect that the jade pendant was so valuable.
The shopkeeper looked at Ning Yu's walking away, then picked up his pen and wrote a letter.
In a blink of an eye, a short man with an ordinary face came over and said, "Go and deliver this jade pendant to the prince's mansion, and also this letter..."
The man put the things close to his body and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
Prince's Mansion, Study.
Ji Yun's expression was calm and composed. "Aunt Qin, is the Queen Mother in good health in the palace?"
A servant in a dark green vine-patterned Ning silk palace dress knelt on the ground. He had an ordinary bun on his hair, a few wrinkles under his eyes, and spoke in a helpless tone.
"Your Highness, don't you know whether the Empress is in good health? The Empress sent me here because of the matter of the Crown Princess. If you don't agree to choose a Crown Princess, she will never leave Chuxiu Palace."
Ji Yun frowned slightly when he thought of his mother's earnest teachings and care and love for him.
Just as Aunt Qin was returning home disappointed as usual, she suddenly heard Ji Yun's magnetic voice.
"Please tell Aunt Qin that I have agreed. I will trouble my mother to take care of the selection of the Crown Princess."
He was secretly poisoned with a drug that would kill him, and he was destined to have no chance of achieving the supreme position.
But he was unwilling to give up.
So the news was suppressed.
In order to avoid leaking the news, he didn't even tell his mother.
He is now twenty-one years old. A normal man of this age would have already started a family and had children running around.
The fact that he has not yet married has aroused suspicion.
At this point, we can't delay any longer.
"I will go back and report this to Her Majesty the Queen."
Aunt Qin left the Prince's Mansion with a smile on her face.
Ji Yun pinched his eyebrows. For some reason, he always felt that his previous decision seemed a little too reckless.
Not long after, there was a steady knock on the door.
"Come in."
Ji Yun quickly regained his composure, no longer showing any signs of annoyance.
Shi Ba pushed the door open and walked in, presenting something. "Your Highness, there is a secret letter and a jade pendant. The jade pendant seems to be the one Your Highness lost four years ago."
"Jade pendant?"
When Ji Yun saw the jade pendant in Shi Ba's hand, he picked it up and looked at it carefully. There was a tiny flaw in the lower left corner.
That was when he was a kid and accidentally knocked the jade pendant to the ground because he was naughty.
He has confirmed it.
This was indeed the jade pendant he had carried with him for many years.
Ji Yun opened the secret letter and quickly scanned the lines of words.
His sight suddenly stopped at the word 'Ning Yu', and the scene under the moonlight emerged in his mind.
The woman's eyelashes drooped, her eyes seemed to contain starlight, bright and clear, and her smile was gorgeous.
Although the letter did not describe the appearance of the woman who pawned the jade pendant, Ji Yun inexplicably felt that it was Ning Yu!
Ji Yun began to look forward to that incomplete memory.
"How are they now?"
Ji Yun suddenly asked.
Shi Ba was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized that His Highness was asking about the mother and daughter.
"The mother and daughter went to a restaurant for dinner as soon as they arrived in the capital, but were molested by Meng Yuanzhi from the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion..." Shi Ba suddenly felt the temperature around him drop sharply.
Shi Ba swallowed his saliva and continued, "I want Miss Ning to be my concubine, and then be rescued by Song Ziyu..."
Ji Yun's narrow eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a sense of danger. "Song Ziyu? Why is he there?"
"According to reports from below, Song Ziyu was ordered to investigate the Zhenbei Marquisate and rescued Miss Ning by coincidence."
Ji Yun nodded slightly, his handsome face expression cold, "Have you found out why you pawned the jade pendant?"
Shi Ba, "Miss Ning seems to want to rent a clinic before she pawned the jade pendant. Your Highness, would you like to help Miss Ning find a good clinic?"
After saying that, he glanced at Ji Yun tentatively.
There was a deep pool in Ji Yun's eyes, which made Shi Ba feel a little scared.
His heart couldn't help but start to tremble. How could he have forgotten that His Highness hated people guessing what he was thinking the most?
"Can."
Shi Ba finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Ji Yun felt a sense of crisis in his heart, "Also, tell Shi Ying to come back within three days!"
Shi Ba suddenly felt some sympathy for Shi Ying.
It’s already very rushed to come back within a week, let alone three days.
As the night deepened, the sound of cicadas could be heard from outside the window from time to time.
Ji Yun lay on the bed, frowning tightly, with beads of sweat oozing out of his forehead.
In a dream.
He pinched a woman's soft waist, and her snow-white skin bloomed in large areas, like a white jasmine flower stained with red marks.
I heard soft crying sounds in my ears.
However, she did not receive any mercy from him. Instead, she became more ferocious like a catalyst.
The woman's face gradually appeared before his eyes.
