Spring Courtyard Forbidden Pet

Ye Zhen's shop is the sixth one in Jinyun Lane, and the other party's shop is diagonally opposite.

There are four shops selling headwear in Jinyun Lane. Ye Zhen previously imported jadeite from the south through the Cui family. In the beginning, she sold the rough stones at a low price. After becoming famous, she hired masters to inlay and cut them. Each piece is unique and is deeply loved by the ladies and girls in Beijing.

The shop opposite called Shuiyunjian also sells jade and pearls. The quality is average, but the inlay craftsmanship is good. In order to grab business, it has lowered its prices for a month, specifically targeting Ye Zhen's shop.

He thought he had a sure win, but Chang Bo brought out black jade that was rarely seen in a century, and also took out a batch of rare yellow jade and purple jade, and he immediately turned the tables.

As a result, this incident happened today.

The owner of Shuiyunjian was a middle-aged man with a big belly, scowl eyebrows and green bean eyes. When he saw Ye Zhen getting out of the car, he shouted at the top of his voice, "It's her! The owner behind this shop is the famous Miss Ye Er!"

"She is just jealous of my good sales!"

Before Rong Fei stepped forward, Shen Du had already protected Ye Zhen, squinting at those green eyes, his whole body filled with terrifying murderous aura.

When the crowd heard the name Ye Zhen, they subconsciously poked their toes forward, because as long as these two words were mentioned, there would be a lot of excitement. But when they saw the flying fish suit and embroidered spring sword blocking her way, they quickly shrank their heads and covered their mouths.

The green-eyed boss thought he had seen it wrong, took two steps forward, looked carefully at Shen Du's stern face, stepped back a distance, swallowed his saliva, and then trembled and said, "She had someone kill the waiter in my shop!"

"Jin, Jinyiwei will be the same when they come."

When the officers and soldiers of Shuntian Prefecture saw Shen Du, they quickly put away their weapons and dared not say a word.

Shen Du glared at the green-eyed boss, "Why do you say Miss Ye Er is the owner of the shop?"

The green-eyed boss was startled. "My people saw the shopkeeper go to the Ye Mansion several times. Only the Cui family had the ability to take back the jadeite from the south in the past. Who else could it be but her?"

Shen Du has a pair of fox eyes. When he is not smiling, he is as cold as ice. When he occasionally smiles, he makes people tremble with excitement. "Boss Xue is really busy. There are six concubines waiting for you to return home, but you are eyeing Manager Chang."

When Green Bean Eyes heard that the Royal Guards had investigated him thoroughly, he wiped his sweat for no reason and said, "I am not doubting their source of goods, so I can only find evidence in private. Before I could do anything, they took action."

"Look, the bodies are still inside, and their black jade is covered in blood. What else can we say?"

Ye Zhen glanced at the black jade in the middle of the shop, and the pool of undried red stain underneath, and couldn't tell what was wrong.

If the soldiers search the shop today and take the people to Shuntian Prefecture for questioning, even if it is finally proved that the matter has nothing to do with them, I am afraid that no customers will come to the shop in the future.

Shen Du saw the coroner packing up his tools and raised his two fingers, "What's going on?"

The coroner looked around and confirmed that it was him who was being called. He knelt down and said, "Sir, there are no obvious injuries on the body. The facial features are distorted and the mouth is slightly enlarged. The preliminary judgment is that he died of shock."

"We'll have to go back to the government office to check the details."

Shen Du sneered at the words, "Since there is no wound, what does it have to do with the blood on the black jade?"

The green-eyed boss opened his mouth to retort, but then he saw Ye Zhen calmly walk into his shop and said, "Wait."

Countless pairs of eyes were staring at her. Shen Du saw her approaching Mo Yu, with his arms folded across his chest and a scrutinizing smile on his face. When ordinary women saw this scene, they would first scream and then faint. Those who could not faint would have to help the maid vomit for a while, and then quickly call a doctor.

This Second Miss Ye is really new. No wonder the Imperial Master shows favoritism to her.

Ye Zhen walked to Mo Yu, hesitated for a moment, and reached out to touch the pool of blood. Liuxia said in surprise, "Second Miss!"

Ye Zhen was initially unsure, her face as stiff as her body, but the moment she leaned over, her brows relaxed. She ignored the cries of others and resolutely touched the wet blood.

At that moment, the shopkeeper with green eyes felt dizzy.

Ye Zhen turned around and lightly lifted her eyelids, looking around indifferently. An indescribable murderous aura spread from her, "This is not blood, it's just wax water."

what?

Everyone was shocked, and the shopkeeper came over and smelled it, "That's right!"

"But where does all the wax come from?"

Ye Zhen glanced at the shopkeeper with green bean eyes and bowed respectfully to Shen Du, "I'll have to trouble you to check it out."

Everyone who hadn't recovered from their daze was dumbfounded again when they saw Shen Du actually returning the favor to Ye Zhen. The surroundings were so quiet that only the anxious, yet unable to explain, breathing sound of Green Bean Eyes could be heard.

"Boss Xue, let's go to the Pacification Office and have a good chat."

Shen Du waved his arm, and two Jinyiwei pressed Green Bean Eyes on the left and right and dragged him away. Seeing that he was still trying to struggle, the back of the knife pressed on his collarbone, and Green Bean Eyes made no sound at all. People all around him gasped.

Before the crowd dispersed, Li Xuan arrived.

The people worshipped him at first, and then their eyes secretly shifted between the Imperial Master and Ye Zhen. As the rumor spread more and more, it became more true.

Most people seemed to have gotten used to the Imperial Master protecting Ye Zhen, so they didn't find it strange to see him appear. Instead, they were happy to see the Imperial Master and pray for their safety and well-being.

Li Xuan'an's gaze naturally fell on Ye Zhen, gentle yet strong, which made Ye Zhen feel embarrassed.

She tried to remain calm, "Second Master."

The next second, a navy blue handkerchief with auspicious patterns was handed to him. It was embroidered by Ye Zhen herself.

Li Xuan said gently, "Your fingers are dirty, wipe them off."

In fact, there was only a little wax on the fingertips, so it was not dirty at all. But when he said that, Ye Zhen's fingers curled up slightly, showing her bewilderment.

As a result, she failed to take the handkerchief in time. Li Xuan came over, blocked her with his whole body, grabbed her fingers and rubbed them gently.

Ye Zhen was extremely panicked.

"Don't move! Do you want them all to see?"

"Anyway, I don't care."

Ye Zhen didn't dare to move, she raised her eyes and glanced at him cautiously, "Why are you here, Master?"

"Someone is setting up a trap to bully me, so of course I have to come."

Ye Zhen's hand was curled up in his warm palm. She was surprised when she heard the words, "Set up a game?"

Li Xuan wiped her fingers clean, carefully put away the handkerchief, and looked coldly at the pile of stones under the steps of the shop that looked like they were randomly piled by a child.

He walked over slowly and exerted force with his toes. Not only did the shape of the stone pile become disordered, but seven of the stones with flame patterns painted on the back also shattered on the spot, revealing traces of red pen drawings on the ground.

Like a spell.

Chang Bo was very surprised. "This, this... A few days ago, a few children were playing house here and begged me not to break up their house. I didn't care about what I was doing with them."

Li Xuan said in a deep voice, "It's the Water Breaking Formation."

Water means wealth, and this symbol is drawn on the Feng Shui position of the shop. The pile of stones is like a small hill, and the fire symbol means evaporation, which completely suppresses the shop's fortune.

But this alone was not enough, Li Xuan walked towards Shuiyunjian again.
