When she returned to the summer residence, Zhang Xueming had changed into a black standing collar robe, which was embroidered with black arabesque patterns and tied with a waist belt with a gold-rimmed black bamboo pattern brocade with a silver double carp pendant and six thin silver chains given by Gong Shangjiao. Her long hair was tied into a braid, tied up high with a silver lotus buckle. The braid was decorated with eight rows of small silver bells from the top to the ends, and the end was dangled with a gold square pendant given to her by Gong Yuanzheng.

Coincidentally, Gong Yuanzheng also wore his black robe with a standing collar and embroidered cloud pattern, and also wore a waist belt with a bamboo pattern and a gold double carp pendant and six thin gold chains given by Gong Shangjiao. His hairstyle remained the same, with a braid from top to bottom, embellished with a row of sixteen small silver bells, and the end of the braid was adorned with the same gold square pendant as Zhang Xueming's.

Both of them have slim waists and long legs. Looking at them from behind, Gong Shangjiao felt as if he now had two younger brothers, the only difference being their height.

While changing his clothes, Gong Shangjiao had calmed down. If he couldn't avoid it, he would go forward. He didn't believe that with his brothers and sisters watching him, he would be bewitched by the assassin without a sharp edge.

He was in the mood to act like an older brother and worry about his old father again: "Aren't you two cold in just this little bit? Hurry and put on your big sweaters."

He was very happy to see the gifts he had given to Zhang Xueming and Gong Yuanzheng, but it was a pity that Gong Shangjiao had not thought of preparing the same gifts for himself. Now the two little ones had them, but he didn't, which always made him feel an indescribable subtlety.

Zhang Xueming and Gong Yuanzheng puffed up their cheeks at the same time, and were not willing to wear them. Young people who practiced martial arts had strong firepower, and it was difficult to get rid of the smell of big woolen clothes, and it was inevitable that there would be times when the internal force was not covered.

Zhang Xueming glanced at the jade pendant on Gong Shangjiao's waist and changed the subject, "Brother, have you changed your jade pendant? I've seen you wearing this white jade flying eagle these past few days. Did you put away the original double bat pendant?"

Gong Yuanzheng took a closer look and was stunned: "Isn't this the jade pendant that my brother found among the things Shangguan Qian brought into the palace and was lost for more than four years? My brother said earlier that he would put it away and not wear it again, why is it..."

A word awakens a person from a dream. Gong Shangjiao looked down at the white jade pendant with an eagle flapping its wings hanging around his waist, and a chill ran up his spine.

Zhang Xueming had only heard Gong Shangjiao talk about this in the clinic, and he also used this as an opportunity to analyze Shangguan Qian for her. Now that she saw the real thing, her mind raced, and she met Gong Shangjiao's eyes as he suddenly looked at her: "Brother, don't wear accessories for the time being."

Gong Yuanzheng also understood.

More than four years ago, Shangguan Qian set up a heroic rescue plan and stole Gong Shangjiao's jade pendant. This time, she brought the jade pendant into the palace, most likely to use it as a lure to get Gong Shangjiao to choose her as his bride.

So, in the original plot, this jade pendant must have become the "matchmaker" between Gong Shangjiao and Shangguan Qian, the beginning of all the evil fate.

Who knows, that force is using this medium to do something to Gong Shangjiao.

Gong Yuanzheng suspected that he was also influenced by his curiosity about Master Yue's desire to meet them today. Otherwise, if he hated Master Yue so much that he refused to even mention his name, how could he be interested in what he had to say before he died?

outrageous.

This jade pendant was a birthday gift given to Gong Shangjiao by his father for his seventeenth birthday. It cannot be destroyed, so it can only be put away and far away.

Gong Yuanzheng hurriedly fetched an iron box, and Gong Shangjiao untied the jade pendant and put it in. He put it in by holding the knot, and the two brothers were very careful not to touch the jade at all.

The lid of the box was a push-pull type. Once it was closed, Gong Shangjiao grabbed Gong Yuanzheng and quickly retreated to Zhang Xueming's side. He said with a heavy face, "I started to feel anxious as soon as I untied the knot. I had a strange feeling that I was going to lose something."

He stressed: "It's not a psychological effect."

Gong Yuanzheng swallowed his saliva, his face not looking good: "I also have a strange feeling, as if this is not a good thing to do."

It was one thing to doubt, another to experience it personally, and he was terrified.

It is absolutely certain that the power is causing trouble through this thing.

So what should we do with this hot potato?

The two brothers looked at the box on the tea table from a distance, at a loss as to what to do.

Zhang Xueming laughed and asked Gong Yuanzheng: "Is the box waterproof?"

Gong Yuanzheng answered reflexively: "Defense."

She quickly walked around the two big men who subconsciously blocked her behind them, walked forward and threw the iron box into the pond in the patio.

With a "splash", a huge splash of water occurred.

The two brothers opened their eyes wide and opened their mouths slightly, like two silly geese.

Zhang Xueming watched the box sink to the bottom of the water, and calmly put away the murderous intent directed at the box, and walked back slowly: "Let's go, we'll fish it out when we come back."

After locking the door of Miaoxiaju from the outside, Zhang Xueming took the lead, and her two tall and strong brothers followed her closely, leaving Jin Miao, Jin Ting and the dungeon guard captain Jin Fangzheng stunned.

"Light up the road."

Zhang Xueming gave an order to call the two jade servants back to their senses, and they hurried to get lanterns.

Gong Shangjiao also calmed himself down and walked forward.

Zhang Xueming naturally stopped where he was, and waited for Gong Yuanzheng to come up and hold his slightly cold hand. His inner strength spread over and wrapped him up: "It's okay, I'm here."

Gong Yuanzheng held her fingers together, and his pounding heart slowly calmed down. Knowing that no one could hear them talking at this moment, he lowered his voice and asked, "Did Zhaozhao feel anything?"

"Nothing." Zhang Xueming smiled.

Gong Yuanzheng held her hand tightly: "Will Zhao Zhao be afraid?"

Zhang Xueming knew that this fearless young man would be a little scared when he encountered such a mysterious thing for the first time, so he said slowly: "I'm not afraid. When my martial arts were not that advanced, I experienced countless life-and-death situations on the battlefield. I have a lot of evil spirits, and it's the only one that's afraid of me."

She deliberately led Gong Yuanzheng to talk to dispel this fear of the unknown, and then said: "Besides, when my brother and I lured Wu Feng to death, I discovered..."

Zhang Xueming deliberately stopped talking, and Gong Yuanzheng asked, "What did Zhao Zhao find out?"

She curled her lips and said, "I found that the power wanted to stop my brother and I from tracking down the case. They killed the assassin without a sword, but never touched my brother and me. Even the common people and the guards my brother summoned to help were not threatened with death. This is enough to show that the other party's power is limited."

Gong Yuanzheng's spirits perked up, and he grasped the key point sharply: "Zhao Zhao is saying that if there has not been an innocent death on its hands, it cannot be touched?"

"Yes." Under the dim light, Zhang Xueming gave him a brilliant smile and said lightly, "This is also the reason why I didn't use the word 'Heaven' to refer to that power. Now I am more certain. Which Heavenly Dao still needs to use props to interfere with its people? Except for the people in the dungeon. Gong Ziyu would go to the dungeon to cause trouble at this time. I am afraid that he is also an important character in the plot, carrying the same medium as my brother's jade pendant."

You see, the more you do, the more mistakes you make. Now the fox's tail is exposed and you can grab a handful of fur with just your hand.
