Chapter 835 The spiritual butterfly falls and flows into the flowers, and the flying rainbow and jad

When Yu'er left the room, Jiang Jiyue lowered her head slightly and looked at the rippling water in the basin below her body, which reflected her somewhat pale face.

"what is that……"

Suddenly, his pupils narrowed slightly and he looked towards his shoulder.

But at the next moment, the satin shoes under his feet accidentally kicked the basin while moving. The water rippled and the reflection in the basin was instantly shattered and was no longer visible.

Shaking her head vigorously, Jiang Jiyue simply said that she had not slept well last night, so she calmed herself down and stopped thinking about it. Instead, she washed up briefly, changed her clothes, and walked out of the attic.

"Princess, the Third Emperor is waiting for you to come and have a meal at the Jade Banquet Palace."

Yu'er stood outside the attic with a smile on her face.

Jiang Jiyue frowned, tightened her grip on the jade jue in her hand, and said, "I want to go out and tell the Third Emperor so that he doesn't have to wait."

Yu'er was startled for a moment and said, "Then I will go and arrange escorts for the princess."

Jiang Jiyue shook her head and said: "With the support of Grandma Shu, what's the point of having those guards with wine bags and rice bags? I'll go now."

After saying this, she waved directly to the shadow outside the attic, and then walked straight to the courtyard door.

An old woman in gray robe walked out of the shadows and followed Jiang Jiyue without saying a word. Her movements were extremely quiet.

Yu'er was speechless and could only turn around and walk quickly in the direction of Yuyan Palace.

"Miss, are you going to Qiyun Trading Company?"

Under the gray robe, the old woman's hoarse voice reached her ears.

Jiang Jiyue did not look back, but nodded slightly and said, "Now that I have reached the age of sixteen, it is time to take out my mother's relics."

Granny Shu is Granny Liu's sister. After Granny Liu died of illness, Granny Shu took care of Jiang Jiyue when she was growing up, so Jiang Jiyue did not shy away from her.

"Sixteen years have passed in the blink of an eye, and Miss Shu has grown up," Granny Shu sighed, with a somewhat complicated tone, "My two sisters originally served Madam together, if I hadn't gone to Xianqi Ying If I practice martial arts on the flower burial platform at the edge of the valley, maybe my wife will not die, and my young lady will not suffer the pain of those years."

Jiang Jiyue shook her head and said, "The memory of my childhood has been blurred. It has been so long, and my mother-in-law no longer has to blame herself."

Grandma Shu followed Jiang Jiyue out of the door, looked around with a serious look on her face, and said, "Miss, there are two guards following me secretly. You hold on to my sleeves, and I will lead you to shake them off."

While her gray robe was swinging, Grandma Shu grabbed Jiang Jiyue's delicate white wrist and disappeared into the Lianmian Tower with a few leaps.

After a moment, two powerful warriors appeared, looked at each other, and stood there looking at each other.

"Grandma Shu, do you know what my mother left behind?"

Jiang Jiyue was a little disturbed and whispered.

Grandma Shu took Jiang Jiyue and jumped between the eaves of the pavilion and said: "This is a secret that must not be known to others. Miss, although I have a vague idea of ​​what it is, I will wait until you get it. Let me tell you in detail."

Jiang Jiyue nodded and said no more.

Yungu Imperial City, Changzhao Street, Qiyun Trading Company.

"Please wait a moment, both of you. This jade jue is a token of the highest standard. I still need to go and confirm it for comparison."

In the luxurious pavilion, Jiang Jiyue and Granny Shu were sitting in front of a wooden table with fine tea on the table. The person speaking opposite them was a business manager in a silk robe.

Jiang Jiyue glanced at the head of the trading company and said, "Thank you."

The head of the trading company smiled and said: "It's just a duty to perform, no pain or effort."

After saying this, he ordered the servants beside him to serve exquisite pastries one after another, and he turned around and entered the back hall holding the piece of jade.

Qiyun Trading Company is very large, and the palace here is just one of its sixteen branches in Yungu Imperial City. There are seven directors of the trading company like just now in this Changzhao Street branch. many.

After about half a minute of incense burning, the head of the business came out carrying a tray, covered with silk cloth, which looked like a square wooden box.

"I have kept these two distinguished guests waiting for a long time."

The manager of the trading company carefully placed the tray on the wooden case. The waiter behind him took out several yellowed bills and said, "Sir, the deeds are all here."

The head of the commercial bank took the bills, looked at them carefully, and then handed them to Jiang Jiyue and said with a smile: "Miss, the money for depositing the items has been paid in advance. Today, the items are returned to their original owners, and both money and goods have been paid." ”

Jiang Jiyue didn't pay attention to the bills, but opened the silk cloth on the tray and looked steadily at the wooden box.

The head of the trading company winked at the waiter behind him, waved his hand, and in just a few breaths, they exited the attic one after another. Only Granny Shu and Jiang Jiyue were left before the wooden case.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Jiyue's brows furrowed slightly as she stretched out her hands to hold the wooden box.

Grandma Shu noticed something was wrong with Jiang Jiyue's expression and asked, "Miss, what's wrong?"

Jiang Jiyue did not speak, but directly opened the ancient wooden box that had been sealed for more than ten years.

Squeak.

As the wooden box opened, the dust between the cracks flew away, but Jiang Jiyue didn't care at all. She just stared at the wooden box with an expression that seemed to be in disbelief.

Grandma Shu came over and took a quick look. Her pupils shrank and she exclaimed: "How is this possible!"

The opened wooden box was actually empty, with nothing at all!

As if hearing the sound here, the head of the trading company quickly walked into the attic and looked over: "Two distinguished guests, what's wrong?"

Grandma Shu looked gloomy, pointing to the empty wooden box, and said: "I have always heard that Qiyun Trading Company is spread all over the Imperial City, and is the best in Yinggu Valley. Why do you do such a thing of guarding and stealing?!"

The head of the trading bank looked surprised and said: "I'm afraid your distinguished guest may have misunderstood. The rules of my Changzhao branch are extremely strict and I will never touch anything belonging to my guests."

After saying this, he stretched out his hand to take out the wooden box and pointed to the seal mark on its periphery. "Look here, distinguished guest, I just took off the seal here before taking it out. What's more, if someone really steals it, and Not to mention whether it will be noticed by Qiyun warriors who patrol day and night, just saying that the dust falling in the cracks will not be formed in ten or eight years."

Grandma Shu wanted to say something more, but Jiang Jiyue stood up, waved her hand to stop Grandma Shu, and said: "Grandma Shu, forget it."

"But, miss..."

Jiang Jiyue shook her head and said, "I've already thought about it. This matter is not the fault of the company."

Grandma Shu sighed, put the empty wooden box into her sleeve, and said no more.

Jiang Jiyue cupped her hands towards the head of the trading company and said, "My mother-in-law was a little anxious just now, I hope you can forgive her."

The head of the trading company glanced at the gauze on Jiang Jiyue's face, waved his hand and said with a smile: "Although the lady is covered with gauze, she is well-educated and sensible, and her gestures and gestures are extraordinary. We understand the mood of the two distinguished guests, but please believe me. , Qiyun Trading Company is determined not to commit theft, if you two still need help, just ask."

Jiang Jiyue looked a little lonely and said, "It's a lot of trouble, so I won't use it for now. Granny Shu, let's go."

After saying this, she turned around and walked out of the attic.

Granny Shu cast a sidelong glance at the head of the trading firm and quickly followed him.

"Grandma Shu, tell me the truth. What was originally in that box?"

When they reached a remote and uninhabited place, Jiang Jiyue stopped and spoke softly to the old woman in gray robe.

Grandma Shu was silent for a moment, with a somewhat gloomy look on her face, and said: "Since Miss has reached the age of sixteen, I will no longer hide it from you. As far as I know, the box was originally a pair of strange wings connected with fascia and flesh. "

Jiang Jiyue looked confused, obviously not understanding this statement, and said, "What does that mean?"

Granny Shu sighed and said, "I wasn't here at the time, but I just heard my sister say, you..."

Hearing her pause, Jiang Jiyue subconsciously felt a little frightened, her soul trembled, and she said, "What happened to me?"

Granny Shu looked sideways at Jiang Jiyue, lowered her voice, and said slowly: "You were born to be a monster different from other people. The pair of bone wings hidden in the box were the ones my wife tore off your back bones with her own hands. This way you can grow up in the Third Emperor's house without attracting anyone's attention."

After hearing these words, Jiang Jiyue couldn't help but feel a little dazed, standing quietly on the spot, looking down at her hands.

"I...I'm a demon?"

As she murmured softly, Jiang Jiyue's little face became paler.

"Miss, what's wrong with you?"

Granny Shu stepped forward quickly and supported the weak Jiang Jiyue, her eyes full of worry.
