But apart from this, no other tricks can be seen.

Wei Chang took it in his hand and looked at it carefully. His hands were slender and long, and his fair skin almost blended into the white jade.

Jiang Xuerou has seen a good-looking person, Lin Ningkun before he was disfigured.

In Jiang Xuerou's eyes in her previous life, Lin Ningkun was the most beautiful person in the world, but ever since she saw Wei Chang's graceful appearance, she realized that she was like a frog in a well.

In front of Wei Chang's noble and outstanding appearance, Lin Ningkun's handsomeness was just like that dazzling weed in the field.

"Mrs. Lin, where did you get this jade pendant?"

Wei Chang's words interrupted Jiang Xuerou's thoughts. She met his cold eyes, which were cold to the bone, but there was a hint of excitement in her eyes, but it was just very subtle. If Jiang Xuerou hadn't spoken to him several times, she wouldn't have been able to tell the difference at all. come out.

But Jiang Xuerou asked strangely, "Prince Palace, do you know the origin of this jade pendant?"

Has Mrs. Lin ever heard of Unnamed Island? "Wei Chang did not answer her question directly, but asked her a question instead.

Jiang Ruanxi didn't know what he meant, but she still asked an honest question, "I have heard of Wuming Valley, but I don't know if it is the Wuming Island that His Highness mentioned."

"The Wuming Island and the Wuming Valley are not the same place, but they are also related." Wei Chang explained to her directly.

"Mrs. Lin lives deep in the inner house, so it is normal for her to be unclear about some things in the world. This Wuming Valley is a martial arts sect, and it is said that there are many disciples. Most of them dress up like ordinary people. But this Wuming Island is superior to Wuming Valley. superior."

Turning around, he looked at the jade pendant in his hand and said calmly, "This jade pendant is the status symbol of the people in Wuming Island."

Jiang Ruanxi did not expect that this seemingly inconspicuous jade pendant would have such a big influence.

Does this mean that the Jiang family or Jiang Changjun are from Wuming Island? But even if they are not, they should be inextricably related to the people from Wuming Island.

Wei Chang gently twirled the jade pendant with his fingers, and said in a deep tone, "Mrs. Lin, for so many years, the imperial court has been very afraid of the power of Wuming Island, and I have been inquiring about Wuming Island's information."

Jiang Ruanxi was stunned. He didn't know why Wei Chang suddenly said this to him, and he suddenly became wary.

In her last life, she had been imprisoned in the back house. She had only heard very little about things outside the Marquis Mansion. If she hadn't met Bian Du by chance, she would never have known about Wuming Valley, let alone Forget about the nameless island.

I thought I would show it to Wei Chang. Seeing how knowledgeable he was, he might recognize this jade pendant. When the time came to know the origin of this jade pendant, he would be able to find out who changed her fate.

But unexpectedly, he shot himself in the foot and was now suspected by Wei Chang.

Jiang Ruan Xi calmed down and pretended to be calm.

"Your Highness, a commoner woman has been living in the inner house all year round. How would she know about the unknown island? This jade pendant was forced into my hand by Jiang Changjun before he died. I thought that this jade pendant would be useful for Your Highness to investigate the Jiang family's affairs, so I took it. It’s for His Highness.”

There are many disciples in Wuming Valley, and they usually hide their identities and act among the people. This is undoubtedly a huge hidden danger for the court.

In addition, Wuming Taoist and Master Biandu also came from Wuming Valley. Although she didn't know what their roles were, she couldn't let Wei Chang know that she was connected to them.

Otherwise, if Wei Chang gets suspicious and traps someone who is also from Wuming Valley, she will be doomed.

"Mrs. Lin, do you think the Jiang family is related to Wuming Island?" Wei Chang asked with a half-smile.

Jiang Ruanxi shrank in her heart and looked innocent, "The civilian woman doesn't know. Your Highness also knows that my relationship with the Jiang family is not close, and this jade pendant was given to me by Jiang Changjun. I don't know what the relationship is between them. ."

She made it clear that Wei Chang's eyes became dark, "The person is dead. There is no evidence for what Mrs. Lin said?"

Wei Chang didn't believe her, and Jiang Ruanxi wasn't angry either. He said calmly, "Your Highness, if a civilian woman has something to do with Wuming Island, she will definitely not be stupid enough to bring the jade pendant to His Highness."

Wei Chang stared at her for several seconds before returning the jade pendant to her, "Of course I believe in you. But since this jade pendant was given to my wife by Jiang Changjun, just keep it well."

The crystal clear jade pendant should have been hard to put down, but now it seems like a hot potato.

Jiang Ruanxi did not answer, "A civilian woman is just a woman and does not know any unknown island. It just so happens that His Highness is looking for an unknown island right now. How about Your Highness accept this jade pendant. It would be an honor for a civilian woman to be able to help His Highness." "

"Mrs. Lin, you're welcome. This is just a token. It won't be of much help to me. If I need it in the future, Mrs. Lin can just lend it to me."

Now that the conversation has reached this point, Jiang Ruan Xi has no choice but to take back the jade pendant.

After coming out of Wei Chang's mansion, Jiang Ruan Xi's mood became particularly heavy.

In her previous life, she lived in the inner house, and until her death, her heart was still with Lin Ningkun, so how could she have anything to do with the nameless island.

But now, does the person who exchanged fate with him have something to do with the Nameless Island?

Thinking of Bian Du and the unknown Taoist, Jiang Ruan Xi's mood became more and more solemn. Are they deceiving themselves?

No, Biandu would not lie to himself, but he must be hiding something from himself.

"Madam..." After coming out, Hongye who was waiting outside the door greeted her.

"Go back first."

Jiang Ruanxi got on the carriage, rubbing the jade pendant back and forth in his hands, and fell into deep thought.

After a while, he opened a corner of the car curtain and said to Hongye outside, "Now go and ask Shugen to contact Master Biandu and tell him that I want to see him."

Biandu said that after the last meeting, his master left, and he no longer lived in her yard.

"Yes, ma'am."

Although Hongye was confused, she still followed Jiang Ruanxi's words.

When Jiang Ruanxi returned to the Lin family, she thought it would be calm, but who would have thought that a servant with a face full of anxiety said, "Madam, it's bad, something big has happened."

"Why are you so panicked? Speak slowly." Jiang Ruanxi frowned.

"Lin Shu came to the door with official servants and wanted to take the old lady away. The old lady is blocking her and is currently in a stalemate inside."

Jiang Ruanxi was stunned for a moment, thought of something, and said in a deep voice, "Where are the eldest lady and the master?"

The servant's face was hesitant, as if he had something to hide.

"What's going on?" Jiang Ruanxi scolded.

Seeing the usually amiable Jiang Ruan Xi's sudden change of expression, the servant was a little surprised, but her face was solemn, and she did not dare to hide it anymore, and said directly, "The eldest lady and the eldest master seem to have a quarrel about the cousin."
