"Who are you? How do you have Qing'er's jade pendant!"
The man took out the jade pendant that Lin Wanqing always carried with her.
After Zhao Jiao and Lin Zhengshan were placed in Fengyue Lane by Su Ruojin, perhaps because they were afraid of being assassinated again, they were obedient and rarely went out. They didn't even dare to return to Yanyang for the New Year.
During Su Ruojin's time in Yunqi, Lin Zhengshan and Zhao Jiao also tried to inquire about Lin Wanqing's whereabouts, but they had no relatives or friends in the capital and no money. They relied on Su Ruojin for their living expenses, so naturally they couldn't find out any news about Lin Wanqing.
Now that she suddenly saw a man wearing Lin Wanqing's jade pendant, how could Zhao Jiao not be excited?
She began to scrutinize the man in front of her. He was in his early twenties, with dark skin, and his clothes were not cheap.
"Miss Wanqing asked me to bring you something." The man took out another bag from his pocket, opened it, and found it full of gold.
Zhao Jiao's eyes widened when she saw the bag of gold.
On their way from Lizhou to the capital, all the silver they carried was stolen.
After arriving at Fengyue Lane, he lived off the silver given to him by Su Ruojin.
That amount of silver was only enough to maintain an ordinary life, and she had to carefully budget her spending. Zhao Jiao hadn't seen so much money in a long time.
With this gold, we'll have no trouble living a good life, and we can even find someone to help us find out where Qing'er is.
wrong!
Zhao Jiao suddenly realized.
Qing'er is living a good life now, otherwise why would she have so much gold sent to them?
She excitedly grabbed the purse, disregarding the proper boundaries between men and women, and pulled the man's hand, asking, "Where's Qing'er? Where is Qing'er? Did Qing'er send you to pick us up?"
The man looked at his hand, which was being held by Zhao Jiao, and his eyes filled with disgust. He forcefully pulled his hand back. "Where Miss Wanqing is, it's not convenient for you to know for the time being."
But she asked me to pass on a message to you, instructing you to find a way to infiltrate General Su's mansion. Afterward, someone will tell you what to do. Once it's done, Miss Wanqing will guarantee you a lifetime of endless wealth and luxury.
Zhao Jiao was stunned. What did Qing'er mean by this? Why not take them away? Why let them into General Su's mansion?
Zhao Jiao felt a chill run down her spine when she thought of Su Ruojin's methods. "General Su's army isn't so easy to infiltrate. What does Qing'er want us for? Where is she?"
The man said coldly, "How dare you inquire about Miss Wanqing's whereabouts? Just do as I say."
Zhao Jiao, holding a bag of gold, walked blankly back into the house.
Seeing that Zhao Jiao had returned alone, Lin Zhengshan crawled out from under the bed.
He stood up and saw the gold Zhao Jiao was holding. He was stunned. "Where did you get this gold? Who came? Did Su Ruojin send someone to deliver gold to us?"
Lin Zhengshan snatched the gold from Zhao Jiao's hand, bit it with his teeth to confirm that it was real, and then stuffed it into his clothes.
Zhao Jiao was furious when she saw Lin Zhengshan like this.
Since the last assassination attempt, Lin Zhengshan has been living in constant fear, often dreaming that someone is chasing him, and he can't sleep well. He has long lost his former high spirits.
He heard someone knocking on the door and instinctively thought someone was trying to assassinate him again, so he hid under the bed in fright.
Zhao Jiao scolded, "Gold, gold, all you know is gold. Would Su Ruojin be so kind as to send us gold? This was sent by Qing'er."
Qing'er?
Lin Zhengshan excitedly grabbed Zhao Jiao's shoulder, "Where is Qing'er? Where is Qing'er?"
Zhao Jiao shook her head. "That person didn't say, only that Qing'er is doing well now. They told us to find a way to get into General Su's mansion and work for Qing'er."
Lin Zhengshan was stunned.
work?
What business do they need to have to enter General Su's mansion?
That's General Su's mansion!
It's not something you can just walk in on a whim.
This is something Zhao Jiao can't understand.
Looking at the gold in her hand, Zhao Jiao felt a little hot.
