Chapter 63: Fuxing

  Chapter 63 Lucky Star

  Xu Mingyi nodded.

  Yes, this time it has been very different.

  Grandfather’s thinking was changed, and the military power was still in their own hands.

  But the road is still long, so I can’t just take it lightly——

   "The most important thing we need to do now is to take precautions and not let those who have the intention to take advantage of the loopholes." Zhen Guo justly preached: "It should not be exposed too much on the surface, so as not to be self-defeating."

   Xu Mingyi heard this and explained the secret letter between Zhanqian and the Xia family.

   Zhen Guogong thought after hearing this, and immediately said: "Zhao Zhao has done a good job. From tonight, I will watch the actions of the Zhan family carefully."

   Regardless of whether Xia Tingzhen intends to deal with their town government government, this person is the emperor's most trusted official, and anyone involved with it, he will not be able to treat it carelessly from now on.

  Xu Mingyi nodded and said: "If the person sent by the grandfather notices something strange, I hope that the grandfather can inform the granddaughter in time."

  The things that Uncle Zhu can notice are limited. Since grandfather decided to take the initiative, it is of course the best.

   "Why is it so troublesome? If you really detect what you hear, I will directly ask them to report to you. If you have anything you want them to do, you can just order it!" Zhen Guogong said directly and honestly.

  Xu Mingyi can't help but be surprised.

  It was because she knew how much she loved her grandfather to treat herself, and she couldn't help but feel a little stunned at this time.

   In this way, handing a confidant to her hands, it is related to the safety of the town government, which has exceeded the scope of petting——

   "Does grandfather believe me in this way?"

  The old man seemed to have heard something very funny, and asked her: "My own granddaughter doesn't believe it, who else should I believe?"

   stroked his beard again and smiled: "What's more, Zhaozhao is the lucky star of our town's government office!"

  This child, from birth to now, I don’t know how much luck it has brought him.

   is such a major event now, and fortunately there is a clear reminder——

  Xu Mingyi couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

  Then she will do a good job of what a "fortune star" should do.

  ……

  The next day, Xu Mingyi went to Shangyu Pavilion with Princess Yufeng.

  Shangyu Pavilion is the largest jewelry shop in Beijing, and the frequent customers are mostly the powerful.

  Two months ago, Princess Yufeng ordered a set of jewellery here. Today, I have come to inspect the finished product and see if there is any need for improvement.

   "Why don't you ask someone to send it directly to the Long Princess's Mansion." When asked by the shop assistant to go to the elegant room, Xu Mingyi sat down and said casually, "I also made this trip specially."

   Jiaojiao is a lazy temperament, and does not like to go in and out of these lively places on weekdays.

"This was used as a birthday gift for my mother. Naturally, I can't let her know. Otherwise, wouldn't it be boring?" Princess Yufeng said: "When I ordered someone to take that box of rubies from the storeroom, somehow, It reached my mother's ears. When she asked me about it, I said it was taken to see you off, so she didn't doubt it."

  She didn't pick a gem that fits her eyes here. Thinking of having it in her home, she took it for use.

   "You are using me as a shield."

  Xu Mingyi took a sip of tea and looked around the elegant room in a good mood.

  Speaking of, she first met Jiao Jiao when she was young, and it was in this shop.

  So when Jiaojiao grew up, he once said seriously-it was wealth that made them meet.

Not long after, the female shopkeeper in the shop walked in with two neatly dressed girls.

  "I have seen Princess Yufeng, Miss Xu."

  About thirty-five years old, the female shopkeeper wearing a green lotus pattern embroidered her shrewd eyes with a respectful and kind smile.

  Xu Mingyi nodded slightly at her, and his eyes stayed on the hands she clasped in front of her for a moment.

  This famous lady from the Yu family in Beijing was used to seeing the female relatives of the big and small in the capital. Jiaojiao is certainly the princess, but the other party’s tension at this time seems to be somewhat strange.

  Two girls held two trays in front of Princess Yufeng, and the female shopkeeper removed the red cloth covering them.

  "The princess, please have a look..."

   Princess Yufeng, look at it.

  The tray is covered with jade-colored fine silk, and nearly twenty large and small pieces of jewelry are placed separately on it, from hairpin to earrings, everything is exquisite and gorgeous.

  However, Xu Mingyi soon noticed something wrong.

Princess Yufeng also frowned.

   "Why do these two flying phoenix go by month with hairpins, only one of them is inlaid with gems?"

  She once confessed that she would set the two largest rubies on top of these two golden hairpins, but now the head of the other hairpin is bare.

  I thought it was delayed by some craftsmanship, but listened to the female shopkeeper saying: "I dare not hide the princess because of such a big event. Another gem... hasn't been found yet."

   County Lord Yufeng looked cold.

   "You mean-lost?"

  Coercion struck, and the female shopkeeper lifted the corner of her skirt and knelt down.

"Back to the princess, it’s the shop who didn’t pay attention to the staff. I don’t know that Xu Ying is actually a white-eyed wolf with dirty hands and feet. So after stealing the gem quietly, he ran away without a trace!"

  The female shopkeeper has a bitter expression on her face: "The lady has reported the matter to the government, but the whereabouts of Xu Ying has not been found yet."

  "When is this happening?" Princess Yufeng asked in a cold voice.

   "Returning to the county lord, it was already a month ago..."

   Princess Yufeng was furious.

  "It’s been so long, and you didn’t tell me until today. Don’t you dare to hide it? Can you afford to delay my affairs?"

  She is just playing a set of jewellery, she can actually encounter such a bad thing!

   "Yes, it's the fault of the village woman. Please also ask the princess to punish her." The female shopkeeper knocked her head down.

She reported the matter to the owner. The owner meant that while reporting to the officials and waiting for the news, she would see if she could find another piece from elsewhere with at least 80% similar gemstones. But who knows that neither of these things has progressed. smoothly.

  Today is a two-month period, and there is no way to hide it, and it is impossible for the boss who made the decision to come forward to be responsible, and she can only pay for this crime.

   Seeing that his friend was about to get angry, Xu Mingyi raised his hand and pressed the girl's palm on the coffee table.

   "The immediate task is to get this set of jewelry out as soon as possible, and don't delay business." She said: "I also have some rubies in my house. I asked someone to send them over. I should be able to pick out one that works."

   "But half a month before my mother's birthday, can you still make it?"

  It takes a lot of work from polishing to setting a gemstone.

"Half a month is enough!" The female shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Please don't worry, the princess will not go out any more this time! The wages are waived, and after the gem is recovered, it must be returned to the princess intact—"

  It’s nothing more than a Xu Ying, who can't chase it back in a month, is it two months, can't chase it back in half a year?

   Princess Yufeng's face was a little slow.

  Naturally, it is not for the exemption of mere money, but there is still room for solution.

  Fortunately, it is clear.

  Fortunately, there is a girl from the Xu family—at the same moment, the female shopkeeper is thankful for her authenticity in her heart.

  "The shopkeeper said just now that Xu Ying in your shop stole the ruby?" Xu Mingyi asked.

    Thanks to Nuo Qinghan, the dynamic cat and other cute little ones for their rewards.

     (modified a detail today, so the update is late, everyone forgive me, we will still update at 12 o'clock in the next few days)

     will be on the shelves on July 1, please remember to leave me a monthly pass (づ ̄3 ̄)づ╭~
