Bai Yueguang's substitute only wants salted fish

The jade pendant with the word "Xiao" engraved on it was Qin Luoxiao's keepsake for six years.

Back then, when Fu Yichen went down the mountain for the first time, he fell in love with a piece of jade with a transparent texture and a warm color.He was accepted as a personal heir by Qin Daxia of Moshuangmen, and he is actually a poor and white little follower.He had to think of a way because he was shy in his pocket, and after much deliberation, he came up with a ruthless move—to catch the Jiangyang thief who was wanted at the time, and buy it with a bounty.

Fu Yichen really did it.He caught the thief, bought jade with reward money, got the best master to carve the character "Xiao", and gave it to Qin Luoxiao as a birthday gift.

Of course Qin Luoxiao liked it, and she carried it with her every day for six years. If there were no things that happened later, she might have to carry it with her for the rest of her life.

It's a pity that Fu Yichen made meritorious deeds and became the king of King Jing all of a sudden.Qin Luoxiao followed her father who respected the imperial court since she was a child, thought that Fu Yichen had changed, and returned the jade pendant to the original owner.

Fu Yichen regards Qin Luoxiao as the pure and beautiful white moonlight in his heart, and thinks about others every day when he sees things.Not long after, Qi Wenyao entered the palace, and Fu Yichen gave out the jade pendant, staring at the similar-looking face to deceive himself.

To play Qin Luoxiao, jade pendant is an important part.Qi Wenyao always carries the original body with him, and Qi Wenyao is no longer willing to use it as a substitute, and he also knows that the jade pendant is a precious amulet.

Suddenly, the ring is missing.

Qi Wenyao couldn't sit still immediately, and rushed out of the carriage.

"My lord." The attendant held an umbrella for him, "It's windy and rainy right now, so let's go back to the carriage and have a good rest."

"Stop following me."

Qi Wenyao didn't dare to say that he had lost the token, for fear that it would be heard by Fu Yichen.He took the umbrella in the attendant's hand, explained a word, and then slowly walked back along the way he had just come back to find it.

There are only mud and stones on the road from the porridge shed to the carriage, and there is no jade pendant.

The jade pendant is a green and transparent color, which should be very conspicuous in this area.Qi Wenyao glanced to see if it was there, but after taking two steps, he found something was wrong: the soil was soft, and things were easily covered up when they landed.He turned back to take a closer look, pawing at it from time to time so as not to miss the buried jade pendant.

The umbrella suddenly became an obstacle, Qi Wenyao impatiently gave it to a certain guard, and ran around in the rain.

He's been to the stove, the woodpile, and...

Qi Wenyao glanced at the porridge stand, saw Fu Yichen in the middle, and gave up the idea of ​​looking for it: If it really fell there, it would have been picked up and transferred to Fu Yichen's hands long ago, and it would be useless to go there.

Qi Wenyao hoped that the jade pendant would be elsewhere.After looking for the stove and the pile of firewood, he turned to the enclosed place for the old, weak, sick and disabled to rest.

"It must be here. I've been here for so long, walking around, I must have accidentally dropped it." Qi Wenyao searched for half a circle but didn't find it. He gradually panicked and stroked his heart to comfort himself, "Okay Find it, don't rush."

Some victims saw him come back and greeted him with a smile, "Young Master Xiao!"

"Shh, Mr. Xiao doesn't like to be recognized."

"I'm too stupid." The victim who called out patted himself on the head, and asked regretfully, "How should I call you son?"

Qi Wenyao was not in the mood to entangle in addressing, and asked the victims who approached him, "Did you see a jade pendant?"

"Jade pendant? No..." The victim turned his head and asked his companion loudly, "Hey! Have you seen the jade pendant?"

Qi Wenyao was almost frightened, "Hush!"

The victim lowered his voice for no reason, "What's wrong?"

Qi Wenyao glanced in the direction of the porridge stand.Fortunately, it was raining heavily at the moment, the sound of thunder and the movement of the victims merged into a noisy noise, Fu Yichen was surrounded by layers of people and couldn't hear him at all.

"It's nothing, thank you." Qi Wenyao relaxed, and answered the victims' questions, "You rest, I'll go over there and have a look."

He turned to the other side.Compared with the east side where there are children jumping around and people chatting, this side is mostly the elderly and sick, who sleep peacefully after eating porridge, and those who are light sleepers can even hear the sound of footsteps approaching.

The white-haired old man who took the lead to call him Mr. Cheng Xiao noticed it all at once, "Master, have you lost your jade pendant?"

"Yes!" Qi Wenyao thought that the white-haired old man had found the jade pendant, so he hurriedly said, "Did you see it?"

The white-haired old man shook his head, "No, I just heard you ask them something."

"Oh..." Qi Wenyao sighed, and looked down to see if there was any jade pendant nearby.

The white-haired old man also helped to find it, "Is the jade pendant big?"

"It's as big as half a palm." Qi Wenyao gestured, "The green one is tied with a red string, and it's on..."

He paused, and waited for the white-haired old man to look over before he pursed his lips and continued.

"The word 'Xiao' is engraved on it."

He said that he was not Mr. Xiao, so he ran to find a token that only Mr. Xiao had.

Qi Wenyao smiled wryly, and turned to a haystack next to him after speaking, not wanting to see the expression of the white-haired old man.

The white-haired old man regarded him as Mr. Xiao, and didn't think there was anything wrong with the word "Xiao" engraved on the jade pendant, "Sir, I have to say something unpleasant."

"Say it." Qi Wenyao felt that there was nothing worse than the words "Mr. Xiao".

"The jade pendant is a valuable thing. If it is really lost, I'm afraid it won't stay where it is until you get it back."

"..." Qi Wenyao straightened up and looked at the white-haired old man stroking his beard, "You mean...someone took it away?"

He lowered his voice and did not use such harsh words as "steal".There are homeless victims everywhere. They are starving and freezing in the wind and rain, and they are trying their best to survive.He has come into contact with so many poor people and received so many thanks, he really doesn't want to think in the most chilling direction.

The white-haired old man nodded, "If you look for it like this, you probably won't find it. You have to tell the officers and soldiers and ask them to ask them one by one. The villain will be scared out of his wits, and he will reveal his true colors."

Qi Wenyao was in a dilemma, "In this way, good things will turn sour."

The white-haired old man sighed, "My son was born rich, why bother..."

It turned out to be waiting for him here.

Qi Wenyao understood what the white-haired old man meant.A piece of jade pendant is not worth mentioning to rich and noble families, but searching for it with great fanfare will hurt the hearts of poor people.That being the case, why hold on to it?

"The jade pendant is a keepsake." Qi Wenyao said, "Don't lose it."

The white-haired old man suddenly realized, "Is it the piece that the prince gave to the young master? The young master has kept it with him for several years and never left him. How could he lose it?"

"..."

How much does it mean to insert two knives in one sentence?It was Qin Luoxiao who had taken care of her for several years, not him, and the one who accidentally lost it wasn't the real owner Qin Luoxiao, it was him, the impostor who was called "Mr. Xiao"!

Qi Wenyao suddenly burst into flames and didn't want to look for him anymore.

"I deserve it." He said something, then turned to leave, "Forget it if you can't find it."

The white-haired old man chased after him, "My lord!"

Qi Wenyao didn't want to hear it, so he gestured to the guard next to him.

The guard stopped the white-haired old man, and respectfully returned the umbrella he had given away earlier, "My lord, the umbrella is here."

"Mr. Qi." Qi Wenyao somehow competed with a young guard who had no festivals, "Call me Mr. Qi."

The guards were obedient, "Master Qi."

Qi Wenyao relaxed a little, and returned to the carriage under the umbrella.

In the carriage, a small pillow fell to the ground.He left in a hurry, thinking about getting the jade pendant back, so he didn't care about what he knocked over, but now he looked back and realized that he had added so much chaos.

Qi Wenyao picked up the small pillow and patted the ashes on it one by one, "Oh, I can't find it."

He sat back, his thoughts confused and unclear.For a while, he was unwilling to think about what else he hadn't found, and for a while, he repeatedly recalled the embarrassing memories of being called "Mr. Xiao", especially the words of the white-haired old man, which seemed to keep echoing in his ears.

"Forget it." Qi Wenyao smashed the pot and lay down on the seat, "Tell Fu Yichen, let him drive me away."

After half an hour, the porridge came to an end.

Fu Yichen returned to the carriage and saw Qi Wenyao resting on the narrow seat in an awkward posture, shaking his head and pulling off the small blanket to keep out the cold.

As soon as the blanket was covered, Qi Wenyao woke up, rubbing his eyes in a daze.

"Fu Yichen!" Qi Wenyao sat up abruptly, "You're back."

Fu Yichen glanced at him, "Sleep with you."

Qi Wenyao felt the carriage move, "Are we going back?"

"Well, let's go to another place to see."

"Wait!" Qi Wenyao never forgot the jade pendant that was thrown here, and was anxious when he heard that he was about to leave, "Don't go, I haven't found the jade pendant yet."

Once he left, he really had no chance to find the jade pendant again.

Fu Yichen frowned, "Jade pendant?"

"Yes, the one you gave me." At this point, Qi Wenyao could only confess, "I don't know where I lost it. I just looked for it once, and then..."

Then he lost his temper inexplicably and returned to the carriage to take a nap.

The truth was too harsh, Qi Wenyao didn't know how to speak for a moment.He thought for a long time but couldn't find a better way to say it. He sighed and admitted his mistake to Fu Yichen, "Sorry, I lost the jade pendant. Now go down and look for it..."

Before he finished speaking, a jade pendant appeared in Fu Yichen's hand.

Gentle and clear, the jade pendant engraved with the word "Xiao".

"You..." Qi Wenyao was stunned, "Where did you find it?"

"Wei Quan said it fell by the stove."

"Oh, it's a good thing I didn't lose it." Qi Wenyao had mixed feelings and didn't know what expression to make.Finally, he pursed his lips, curled his lips to move his cheeks, and managed to force a displeased smile.

Fu Yichen saw something was wrong with him, "Unhappy?"

Qi Wenyao stared at the jade pendant.

Obviously it is a lost and found treasure, and it took so much effort to find it in the rain and mud. Only by taking it and holding it in your hands can you restore your previous life, and keep the position in front of Fu Yichen.

He just didn't want to take it, and was angry with himself for no reason.

He didn't want to be "Master Xiao", he felt that such a life was too difficult.

"I..." Qi Wenyao experienced a lot of ups and downs in his heart, and finally had the idea of ​​telling the truth, "I don't want it."

After all, he raised his head and looked at Fu Yichen, without avoiding it at all.

He accepted being scolded, beaten and even abandoned, but he was not willing to accept the fate of being Qin Luoxiao's substitute.

Fu Yichen took back the jade pendant, and looked down at the emerald green in his palm.

Qi Wenyao didn't follow suit, but tensed his body and gritted his teeth, staring at Fu Yichen's every move.

Fu Yichen quickly responded.

"it is good."

A simple and crisp answer.

Fu Yichen raised his hand and threw the jade pendant out of the carriage without hesitation.
