Chapter 399

Zhiruo got on the carriage in one step and put the hairpin close to the oil lamp on the table in the carriage for more detailed viewing.

There are three strange symbols engraved on the base of the lotus head of the hairpin, and then there are three other similar symbols on the handle of the hairpin. These six symbols have been seen and studied for a long time, and the image is extremely profound.

Yes, there are six such symbols on the jade pendant that Minghui retrieved from Lingyi Temple, and the pattern on the other side of the jade pendant is also a lotus.

The jade pendant that Aunt Zhen secretly hid and Luoshuang, which may be related to her life experience, were brought back from somewhere. It would be fine if it was a lotus as the theme, but it was actually engraved with the same six strange symbols. Is it a coincidence? If Aunt Zhen wore it normally and was not so mysterious, she might think that this was just a decorative pattern that a certain decorative craftsman particularly liked, or a sign of a silver house.

But the fact is..., so she would rather believe that the lotus and the six symbols are unique to a certain family.

"Where did this hairpin come from?" Zhiruo stared at Luoshuang and asked, the urgency in his eyes really shocked Luoshuang.

"It should be the one that Chou Ya fell down. I saw her wearing it, but I didn't notice it before, and I thought it was an ordinary black painted wooden hairpin," Luoshuang replied quickly. She was shocked when she saw her master, and thought she recognized it as Chou Ya. But thinking about it, she was just a little moonlight. Even if the master saw Chou Ya through the car window just now, she would not be able to see such an inconspicuous hairpin on her head.

"Should?" Zhiruo suddenly remembered the previous topic, "You said just now that someone you saw, it's not ugly again, right? Then he picked up this hairpin?"

Luoshuang nodded and lowered her voice, "Yes, but not only Chouya, but also He Zhen, the owner of Weixian Fish Village. He was wearing black clothes and covered his face to rescue Chouya. He was so coincidental that the scarf was scraped off by a branch, which made me see the front." The master has always been steady, but this ebony hairpin made the master so excited. There must be some reason. She didn't dare to keep it in secret, so she quickly told him.

He Zhen, that man who looks like Aunt Zhen? So what is his relationship with Chou Ya who owns this hairpin? And Aunt Zhen? Why did He Zhen and Chou Ya deal with the saint of the Tianyao Gang? It seems very complicated!

No matter how complicated it is, you have to try your best to check it. Zhiruo raised his eyebrows. After all, this is related to Aunt Zhen’s life experience. Minghui must also hope to know the origin of his own mother and where his other half of his bloodline comes from? Of course, as for whether to tell Minghui the result, it depends on the truth. It will smear, cause trouble for Minghui, or bring dangerous truths. Just pretend that it is not investigated.

"Master, Mrs. Zhou is asking you something," Luoshuang gently pulled Zhiruo and pulled her back from all kinds of "possibles", "if", and "if", "Mrs. Zhou wants to negotiate with the government and want the 100% servants who returned to the Duke of Ding's Mansion to be buried."

"Hmm? Oh," Zhiruo was stunned for a moment before reacting, "Are you all blocked by the government now? If you want to negotiate with them, you will have to wait for the coroner and other inspections to complete. Anyway, it's almost dawn now, so we might as well find an inn to clean up and sort out before going to the prefect's yamen to inquire about the news." The prefect should still be sleeping in a high bed, and there is no way to negotiate with those yamen runners, soldiers and other people.

"Yes," Mrs. Zhou then remembered that she was still a little untidy at this moment, so she would not lose the face of the Duke Ding Mansion when she went out like this. "Young Master Qi was still thoughtful." She was the first-class lady of the imperial edict, and she had lost her identity when she negotiated with those minor officials, let alone in such a embarrassing state.

"Old lady, our money..." Madam Shui said embarrassedly. When they hurried downstairs, they brought the most important small package, which was only taken by Chunyan, the first-class maid next to the old lady. She saw Chunyan being hacked to death by a masked man in black, but she dared not run over to get the package on Chunyan, and she didn't care about it, right?

"Mum, don't worry," Zhiruo comforted, "It's good that people are safe. The money is not a problem, just think it's my lent to you. My Nishangju and Dixianju will soon open a shop in the capital. Then you will return the money to the shop and talk to the shopkeeper." Not everyone likes to take advantage of the benefits. Didn't Mrs. Zhou doubt why she is so enthusiastic about their grandparents and grandchildren just now? She doesn't care about this little money and is willing to let Mrs. Zhou use it for nothing, but Mrs. Zhou and Duke Dingguo's mansion are not short of money.

"Sure, I still owe my life-saving kindness, so I don't care if I owe more money," Mrs. Zhou nodded happily, "Shui Qing, please remember to pay the money as soon as possible." My brothers are still clear about the accounts, so the money is naturally to be repaid, but it is easy to borrow the money. I don't know if there is a chance to repay this kindness and the favor that is in a timely manner. In any case, even if she is gone in the future, she will let her children and grandchildren, especially Brother Yan, who remembers that their Duke Dingguo owes Qi Mubai a kindness, and you must repay the kindness if you have the chance.

Soon, Zhiruo and his party moved into a Yunshu Inn, not far from Xiyue Inn. Although the grade was a little worse, it was clean and tidy, which was closer to the city center and the prefect's office.

After they asked for a rest in the room, Zhiruo immediately asked Luo Ying to contact the people from Dayuanfang. She wanted to check He Zhen and the ugly girl: "I have someone to look at it carefully, check it quietly, and find out the meaning and allusions of these six symbols."

Symbol? Luoshuang took the hairpin with a look on his face, "So that's it" and looked around: "Master has seen these symbols? Yes, this ghost-drawing talisman is really not like a trick. It seems that Chouya has a origin." How could a little beggar command those masked men in black, and how dare he face the Tianyao Gang? And He Zhen, who grew up in Miao Village, is Chouya a Miao? That Miao Village has a grudge against the Tianyao Gang?

"Nonsense!" Luo Ying grabbed the hairpin, "I'll go out now. You must protect your master and not leave your master for a moment. Remember not to be impulsive and do not act on your own."

"I know, I'm long-winded!" Luoshuang curled her lips. She is also an excellent secret guard. Is it okay? Otherwise, the old man wouldn't have sent her to the master with his sister. Isn't it just a clever intention to fool Prince Pan once? She has already reflected deeply, so where would she do it again?

Luo Ying glared at her and Xiang Zhiruo asked to leave. After just taking two steps, she remembered something and turned around and asked Luoshuang: "When you see He Zhen, are you sure they didn't show you? Did anyone else see you when you picked up the hairpin?"
