Chapter 279 Clues
Soon, the Duke of Anguo's mansion officially received the imperial edict from the Empress Dowager, and the wedding date was set on the ninth day of the fifth month of the next year.
The Second Prince's Mansion was also selected and has begun to expand and repair. The wedding will be held in the Second Prince's Mansion. According to the regulations of the Great Zhou Dynasty, only the prince who has been decided can hold a wedding ceremony in the palace.
The streets and alleys in the capital began to become lively again, and people were talking about whether it was auspicious day for engagement recently? The Empress Dowager actually gave marriages one after another in just a few days. The man was first Prince Yong, and then the second prince who had the most hope of fighting for the crown prince. They were all very popular golden son-in-law!
The more the people think, the more they look like that. Isn’t the royal family an imperial prison? Do you pay attention to choosing the day when doing anything? The Empress Dowager made a marriage for her two grandsons in succession, so it must be the most suitable day for getting married recently.
So, there was a sudden wave of engagement in the capital without warning. Before, the person who was discussing a marriage bride happened to see a suitable one... they all quickly settled the time, for fear of missing a good time.
During the "listening to gossip" time in the Yongping Hou Mansion, Aunt Dong's vivid description made everyone stunned, and then she was very funny: Is this okay?
The old lady smiled and said, "Fortunately, it was a fountain, not a fountain, otherwise wouldn't the bride be welcoming team on the street be blocked?
Xiao Baoer heard many people joining her sister Yaoer and got engaged, and thought it was a fun thing, so he joined in and said, "When Sister Yaoer got married, Baoer got married too." His adoptive father and mother took him to the mansion to see the marriage, which was very lively and fun.
Everyone was very happy. The old lady asked, "Who are you going to marry Baoer? Have you found the bride?"
Bride? Baoer frowned and thought, it seemed that there was a bride with a red body when she got married. So who would she be a bride?
Suddenly, Baoer's eyes lit up and he smiled happily: "Sister Yaoer wants to get married too? Sister Yaoer is my bride."
"That won't work," Qi Haoning, who had just stepped into the door, said to Baoer with a "serious" look on his face, "Your sister Yaoer can only be my bride. Baoer, you have to find another one."
Baoer quit: "Brother Ning is cheating! Why is Sister Yaoer your bride? I clearly said it first. Brother Wen also taught me to recognize words yesterday, come first and then come."
Everyone couldn't help it anymore. Haha, what is this little kid still knows about "come first and then come"?
Shuwen sprayed out all the tea that had just been drunk in his mouth: My mother, my Baoer, "come first and come later" is not used this way.
Qi Haoning also smiled and said, "It's just coming first and then coming. You just said it today. Brother Ning, I said it half a month ago."
Is that right? Baoer hesitated and looked at Brother Jie, whom he admired the most and trusted the most.
Shujie held his laughter and nodded seriously: "Yes, your brother Ning said it very early."
Baoer was depressed, but he was unwilling to give up. He suddenly hugged Qi Haoning's thighs and smiled with a flattering and bright smile: "Brother Ning is the best. Brother Ning is the most chivalrous. Brother Ning will give Sister Yaoer to me to be a bride. Be my bride first, and then be your bride."
Qi Haoning gave him a chestnut: "Nonsense! Your sister Yaoer is the most precious to me. How can I give it to you, a little broken child? Hahaha, you can eat a few more strings of candied haws."
Shu Yao, who was sitting behind the old lady, was laughing at Baoer's childhood words when she suddenly heard Qi Haoning's words "Your sister Yaoer is the most precious to me", and her face turned red. She hid behind and didn't dare to laugh anymore, for fear that any movement would lead everyone to look at her. Her heart was sweet and she also complained that Qi Haoning was speechless.
Xiao Baoer was really persistent and thought about Qi Haoning's words "seriously".
"The most precious thing?" Xiao Baoer suddenly realized and pulled his hands into the collar. He continued to discuss with Qi Haoning, "Brother Ning, I have the most precious thing, I'll change it with you."
This little thing! Qi Haoning was amused and was about to reach out and give Baoer another chestnut, but suddenly there was no sound. He stared at the jade pendant on Baoer's hand. It was a black jade pendant in the shape of an ingot, as dark as ink, and looked delicate and gentle. Baoer held it in his hand, facing upward, with a bat connected to five wings. There was a word "Fu" between the bat circles.
Seeing that Qi Haoning really took a fancy to her "most precious thing", Baoer said happily: "It's it. My mother said that this is what my biological parents wear on me, and it can help me find my parents. Brother Ning, I will lend it to you for the time being, so don't lose it."
Qi Haoning didn't say anything, eagerly snatched the jade pendant from Baoer's hand, turned to the back and saw that there was indeed a word "ze".
Baoer was a little scared by Qi Haoning's actions and expressions, and looked at Qi Haoning blankly. He didn't know if it was time to be happy that Sister Yaoer could be his bride, or should he say to Brother Ning: "Don't be angry, I won't rob Sister Yaoer."
Thinking and looking at it... Baoer finally felt wronged, flattened her mouth, and tears were almost bursting out of her eyes...
Shujie first discovered something was wrong: "Ning'er, do you know this jade pendant? We are preparing to ask someone to go to Fuliju to find clues in the past two days."
A few days after Shu Yao and his party returned to the capital, Shu Jie asked Shu Yao to draw the shape of the jade pendant and the patterns on both sides of the front and back, and sent someone to take it to Fuliju to check. As a result, the guy said that the record three years ago was locked in the cabinet, and only the old shopkeeper had the key, and the old shopkeeper returned to his hometown. Calculate the time, it was almost the same as the two days that the old shopkeeper should come back.
Qi Haoning asked back, "Brother, isn't Baoer's mother his biological mother? How old is Baoer this year? Has this jade pendant been worn on him since he was a child? Brother, can I meet Baoer's mother?"
Jin Xida was able to determine that Qi Haoning knew this jade pendant. Not only did he know it, but he seemed to be very familiar with it. He turned around and ordered Beihai: "I'll invite my wife to come here, and I'll say that Baoer's jade pendant has clues."
At this time, Qi Haoning was holding Baoer and looking up and down. Yes, he had seen Baoer so many times, but why didn’t he find that Baoer looks like that person? His nose, mouth, ears, eyes look like..., and his age is just right. But didn’t that child die prematurely? Why is this happening?
Qi Haoning was in a hurry to see the strange lady, and he had to confirm all this immediately. If Baoer was really..., what kind of surprise would it be for his biological mother? It could simply save her mother's life.
Shuwen couldn't help it: "Brother Ning, you haven't answered your brother's question yet. Tell me quickly, do you know this fast jade pendant?"
