Chapter 73 Colorful Glazed Jade
Wen Ling did not beat around the bush and said directly: "We need to borrow the seven-colored glazed jade for a while. We are just using it and will return it to its original owner in a year."
"Seven-colored glazed jade?"
The Marquis of Zhenbei repeated it, and turned to look at the Marquis's wife in confusion: "Do we have such a thing as seven-colored glazed jade in our house?"
The Marquis's wife was also confused. She shook her head and said, "I don't know. Do we have any in our house?"
The couple looked at their son, the most attentive son in the family.
Zhu Hongtao was even more confused: "No, why are you two looking at me? The valuable things in the house are kept by my parents, I don't know anything!"
Wen Ling and Gu Chenran were also stunned for a moment.
I have successfully obtained two magical weapons before, and the information was correct.
Could it be that the information about the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion was wrong this time?
The colorful glazed jade is not in the Marquis’ Mansion?
The Marquis's wife said embarrassedly: "Princess, can you tell me in detail what the seven-colored glass jade you want is? Why do you think this jade is in our house?
It's not that we don't want to give it to you, it's just a jade pendant. You saved my life, so let alone using it, we would be willing to give it to you directly.
I just really don't know what you are talking about! ”
Wen Ling thought about it and it seemed to be true.
This world is still different from the world she was in before. Even if it is the same thing, the names on both sides are slightly different.
She described it in detail: "It is a jade pendant engraved with a lotus pattern. It is white during the day, and at night, when worn, it glows with seven colors, as translucent as glass."
Gu Chenran also added: "We think this jade pendant is in your house, and we have indeed inquired about it from many sources.
This kind of jade pendant is a rare item no matter where it is. There must be rumors about its whereabouts.
We found out that the jade pendant was in your house because we really needed it, not because we specifically checked the Marquis's mansion. ”
Afraid that Marquis Zhenbei and the others would misunderstand, Gu Chenran made a special explanation.
After being reminded so carefully, Madam Hou actually remembered: "I know what jade pendant you want. It turns out that the seven-colored glazed jade you are talking about is the lotus ice jade that I brought as a dowry!"
She waved to the maid beside her: "Quick, go to my storeroom and bring me my Lotus Ice Jade."
The head maid hurried to get it, and soon brought back a wooden box.
Madam Hou opened the wooden box and handed it to Wen Ling: "Hurry and take a look. Is this the jade pendant you are looking for?"
Wen Ling took the box and took a look. She was delighted to see the crystal white lotus jade pendant lying quietly in the velvet box.
"Yes, this is what we are looking for!"
The Marquis's wife smiled with relief: "Great, it turns out that it's just the name that's different. I thought our Marquis's Mansion really didn't have this jade pendant. I'm sorry to disappoint you!"
Marquis Zhenbei also heaved a sigh of relief.
As the old saying goes, it’s hard to repay a favor, and this outcome couldn’t be better.
Madam Hou looked at the jade pendant with a nostalgic look on her face. "This jade pendant was passed down to me by my mother. It is a lotus ice jade that is passed down from father to son, not from father to daughter. It has been passed down in my mother's family for a hundred years.
Unfortunately, I only have sons and no daughters. It’s because my stomach is not strong enough to give birth to a daughter.
I am old enough to be the mother of a princess. If you like, I will give you this piece of ice jade.
Rather than letting it become a dead object in my hands, I'd rather give it to you so that it can play a greater role. ”
Wen Ling sincerely admired: "Madam Hou's heart is so broad-minded that it is enviable. Most people would not be willing to give away such a treasure."
Madam Hou smiled and said, "It has already played its greatest value by attracting you to rescue me and saving my life. Why should I be reluctant to give it up?"
It seems that this marquis' wife is not only open-minded and generous, but also has a clear vision.
She had already seen that Wen Ling and Gu Chenran came just for the jade pendant.
But not only did she not mind, she was also grateful.
Perhaps it was this mentality and her kindness that allowed her to make good connections and gain blessings, allowing her to escape this disaster.
Wen Ling immediately handed the box containing the jade pendant to Gu Chenran.
Gu Chenran carefully put the jade pendant into his pocket.
A Ling worked so hard to get it, he must keep it well!
After getting the jade pendant, Wen Ling decided to be a good person and provided good after-sales service.
She pointed at the nightmare monster that was being stepped on by Zhenbei Hou again and asked, "Are you going to kill it directly?
Or should we take revenge on Mrs. Xu, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice, and give her a taste of what it feels like to be harmed by someone she has harmed? ”
The Marquis of Zhenbei thought it was troublesome: "No, it's too much trouble. I will chop this dirty thing off with a knife first, and then go and beat up the Minister of Justice. No, more than one beat. From now on, I will beat him every time I see him in court, so that he dare not serve as an official in court again!"
In the eyes of the Marquis of Zhenbei, there was no distinction between the Minister of Justice and his wife, husband and wife were one, and when his wife did something bad, he would beat her.
Gu Chenran whispered to Wen Ling: "The Marquis of Zhenbei might really be able to do this. Although he is no longer on the battlefield, he is the mascot of the Northern Frontier. The emperor is always courteous to him.
If he really beat the Minister of Justice every day because of this, I guess his father would really have no way to do anything about him. ”
Wen Ling's mouth twitched. Is this the life of a ruthless person?
Zhu Hongtao's eyes lit up: "Princess Chen, do you have a way to make the nightmare monster return to Madam Xu? Will it hurt innocent people?"
"No," Wen Ling said confidently, "I can control it and won't let it commit murder or scare Madam Xu to death. I can just make her suffer a little.
I can still take the nightmare monster back in ten days and won't let it run away. ”
If someone with bad intentions wants to harm others, he must be prepared to suffer the consequences.
As for the nightmare monster, no matter whether it had killed humans in the past, it had been sealed for thousands of years and it was already a punishment and retribution.
It has just been unleashed and hasn't killed anyone yet. If you kill it first, the person who kills it will have karma on his hands.
It is even more impossible to let it go directly. What if it harms people in the future?
So the best way is to control it directly and hold it in your hands.
In addition to being able to create nightmares, the Nightmare Demon can also spy on other people's deepest thoughts through dreams.
Uh, why isn't this a particularly useful tool?
Zhu Hongtao immediately said, "Princess Chen, please let the nightmare demon go find Madam Xu and let her suffer the consequences!"
Before the Marquis of Zhenbei could say anything, Zhu Hongtao immediately said, "Dad, if you let the nightmare monster go to find Madam Xu, it won't prevent you from beating the Minister of Justice every time you see him in the court. Wouldn't this cause repercussions for both husband and wife?"
When Zhenbei Hou heard this, he suddenly understood: "That seems to be the truth. Fine, let's save the nightmare monster's life and let it torture Madam Xu!"
