Jade of Rebirth

A few days later, on the fifth day of the new year.

Every household in the capital city celebrates the fifth day of the lunar new year by "welcoming the God of Wealth and sending off the God of Poverty". There is no such custom in the palace, but the atmosphere is more relaxed than usual.Yuan Heng and Yu Li were invited by Feng Ge to go to the capital city with him.

The two dressed up in disguise, dressed up as ordinary noble sons, and made a carriage to leave the palace.Fortunately, the weather was very good on the fifth day of the lunar new year, and the sun was shining brightly. It was a suitable day for traveling, and the two of them were in a good mood.

Feng Ge had a great time in the capital these few days, and almost visited all the interesting places in the capital, except Qiyue Lake in the southwest, so she planned to call Yuan Heng and Yu Lifu The husband and wife went to play together.

When Yuan Heng and Yu Li arrived at the Qiyue Tower by the Qiyue Lake, Feng Ge and Huo Zhang were already there, and they were arguing again, when they heard the two say:

"Because you are stupid!"

"You are stupid, you are the most stupid person in the world! Look, this piece of wood is you, exactly like you!"

"I don't care about you..."

"Hmph, you don't bother to talk to me, why are you blushing? You kind of look at me, look at me!"

"I don't look at you, what's so good about you..."

Yu Li walked into the private room with a smile, interjected, "What are you two discussing?"

Now both of them blushed, and said in unison: "It's nothing..."

Yuan Heng followed Yu Li in, sneered, and said: "The two of them are just bickering to improve their relationship..."

"Who wants to promote relationship with him!" Feng Ge glared at Yuan Heng in embarrassment. He didn't expect Yuan Heng to show his true face without changing his face this time. Said, "You, are you Yuan Heng?"

"Of course I'm Yuan Heng, if it's fake." Yuan Heng took Yu Li's hand and sat down beside him, pouring water for Yu Li, and said, "Do you think I'm as ugly as you?"

"I am, I didn't expect..." Feng Ge said, after recollection, he said angrily, "Who are you calling ugly? You are ugly, your whole family is ugly!"

Yu Li laughed out loud: "Okay, you just attack him, what do you want me to do?"

"Hmph, who told him to call me ugly." Feng Ge pursed her lips and said unhappily.

"Forget it, he was joking with you." Yu Li took a sip of hot tea and asked Feng Ge, "If you don't go back for the New Year, will your family worry?"

Feng Ge waved his hand: "No, they know my whereabouts." He said, suddenly seemed to think of something, and said with a smile, "My family will send someone to the capital soon, just wait .”

Yuan Heng and Yu Li looked at each other, both puzzled.

Huo Zhang who was at the side said: "Okay, don't talk about him. It was rumored in the palace that you were almost poisoned during the New Year's Eve banquet, and that maid also identified the guards of His Highness King Ning on the spot, right? "

Yu Li nodded: "Yeah."

"Is the person who poisoned you King Ning?" Feng Ge asked with concern.

Yu Li shook his head, with worry in his eyes: "Based on my intuition, I don't think King Ning did it. After all, this matter is actually very risky. He can't assign his closest person to do it, and he won't do it. Just find an unreliable court lady... This matter must be someone who framed King Ning to reap the benefits of the fisherman."

Huo Zhang glanced at Yuan Heng who had been silent all this time, and asked, "What about you? Do you think so too?"

Yuan Heng squinted at him, and said with a half-smile: "What do you think I think?"

Huo Zhang is upright, but he doesn't hide it. He scratched his head and said directly: "I don't think King Ning is like that kind of person."

"Tch, what do you know!" Feng Ge gave him a disdainful look, "The more you look at an upright person, the worse he might be! Could it be that the word 'good man' is written on his face?"

Huo Zhang then retorted: "You don't understand, you haven't met King Ning, and King Ning is really a very upright person, not like the kind of person who would be obedient to others or hide a knife in his smile."

Seeing that Feng Ge wanted to fight again, Yu Li said, "Forget it, it's useless to guess now. Anyway, 'Lu Yao knows the horsepower, and it takes time to see people's hearts'. We'll see what kind of person he is."

Feng Ge and Huo Zhang nodded together, Feng Ge said: "Yes, don't mention that kind of bad luck, let's eat first, and then go to Qiyue Lake to play, how about?"

"Anyway, you are the guests, we are the hosts, so you can do whatever you want." Yu Li laughed.

After lunch, the group went out of Qiyue Tower to play by Qiyue Lake, but not long after the four of them walked out of Qiyue Tower, they encountered a situation...

Three or four well-dressed rich men were arguing with two plainly dressed young men who looked like scholars. The rich men were followed by many servants, so they were very disrespectful to the two young men by virtue of their large number of people. is insulting:

"You two bastards, what are you doing in a place like Qiyue Lake without money?"

"That's right, if you break our Mr. Chen's jade pendant now, you will pay for it!"

"Seeing how they dress like beggars, you know they have no money to pay, but if you don't have money to pay, you can use other things to pay!"

Those two scholars who were being bullied were both angry, because there were so many onlookers around, and they were gentlemen, so they didn't open their mouths to curse. One of the young men in crow blue jacket frowned and retorted "It's clear that you guys bumped into it on purpose and broke the jade pendant. What does it have to do with us? What's more, it's just a piece of jade pendant. It's too much for you to ask for 50 taels!"

"Hehe, look, you can still speak plausibly after breaking something..." The rich man in a red brocade suit sneered, his face was full of arrogance and disdain, and his tone was also very contemptuous, "You poor ghosts, don't you know my son's identity?" Is the jade pendant the best Hetian jade pendant? I want you to pay 50 taels for the sake of pity you!"

"That's right! If you don't pay, I'll arrest you and bring you to the officials!" Another rich man in purple agreed.

There was a lot of trouble over there, and Feng Ge was also cursing here, saying: "What's so great about a jade pendant, their words are too ugly! You say 'at the feet of the Son of Heaven', and someone bullies people like this!"

Yu Li was listening, looking at the two young men who looked like scholars over there, but frowned slightly.

"Why, Li'er, do you know those two people?" Seeing his expression, Yuan Heng couldn't help asking.

Yuli nodded.But he only knew one of them, because he kept silent all the time, the taller one was Pei Junqi, a humble scholar whom he met in front of Zhang Siren's gate last time, and this Pei Junqi was the future prince Yuanchen's lover!

He didn't know if Pei Junqi encountered this matter in his previous life, but since he has encountered it now, it is better to let him be a favor, so that if he wants to restrain the prince in the future, he can have a handle.

So he whispered to Yuan Heng: "This person is useful to us, why don't we win him over first... As for the reason, I'll explain it to you when I get back."

"It doesn't matter if you don't explain, I'll listen to Li Er." Yuan Heng smiled brightly at him, and pulled him over to fight against injustice.
