    Chapter 12 Fu Changxi

    This is gold!

    One tael of gold is worth ten taels of silver!

    Moreover, the piece of gold that Yuan Hui casually tossed over was probably more than one tael, at least it was worth more than a dozen taels of silver!

    Zhen Tingyun grew up so big, and he had never seen gold a few times before, and even more than a dozen taels of silver was unlucky to see—you must know that when Zhen Tingyun bought the old violin of an old scholar, he had torn his lips. She put the price down to eight taels. For these eight taels, she didn't know how much thought and effort she put into it. In the end, she put all the pocket money she had saved for several years in the house, and then she bought someone else's old violin. If she had a dozen taels of silver at the time, she could just go out and buy a brand new xylophone, why was it so laborious?

    Therefore, when Zhen Tingyun suddenly saw such a piece of gold, although Zhen Tingyun was pleasantly surprised, he was more frightened, and his feet became weak. If it wasn't, she was holding the tray and tableware in one hand and the gold in the other, she could really go up to Yuanhui's collar and ask him where the gold came from.

    Even if he couldn't pull the collar, Zhen Tingyun still raised his eyes and looked at Yuan Hui with bright eyes.

    Yuan Hui didn't seem to care about this, and said casually: "You asked Liu Shun to deliver food at noon, and I asked her to go to the stable and find it out."

    Zhen Tingyun still didn't understand, just stared at him with wide eyes.

    Yuan Hui was a little impatient, but he still explained it reluctantly: "You said earlier that I stole a horse, but with my understanding of myself, even if there is a reason and I have to ride someone else's horse, I will definitely leave some for the owner of the horse. Compensation or something. Since you said that you saw me in the stable, the compensation I gave should also be in the stable. So, I asked Liushun to go over it..."

    Having said that, Yuan Hui couldn't help but add another sentence: "Fortunately, it rained heavily, the stables were in a mess, and few people went there, so I didn't ask anyone to pick up the money bag I left on the ground earlier."

    When Zhen Tingyun heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and it was scorchingly bright: "Ma Lantou is a good horse specially selected by my father. There should be more than a piece of gold left, right?

    Sure enough, Yuan Hui nodded slightly, raised his hand and picked up a mysterious black purse from the pillow: "Well, it's a bag."

    Zhen Tingyun: "..."

    For a moment, she once again felt the feeling of her heart pounding when she was photographed by Yuan Hui's appearance.

    What should say, a man with a good face can really move people. If he has money, he is willing to give you money, even if he has a hard heart, he will be moved.

    Zhen Tingyun wanted to sell Ma Lantou to Yuan Hui! Such a big bag of gold...

    In the end, Zhen Tingyun still exerted all his self-control, and after a few reluctance to deal with it, he took the piece of gold and went out.

    ******

    In fact, Yuan Hui's purse was more than just gold.

    After Zhen Tingyun came out, Yuan Hui leaned on the bed, opened the black purse with gold embroidery, and took out a small jade pendant from it.

    This jade pendant is exquisitely carved, and it is obviously carefully polished and carved by skilled craftsmen. It is carved from high-quality purple jade. The color is almost ink, and it is a good thing at first sight.

    People say "yellow, silver and purple jade, if the king does not hide gold and jade, then yellow, silver and purple jade can see deep mountains." It can be seen that purple jade is rare and rare. The honor of jade", there is only one piece of jade, I am afraid that ten thousand taels of gold can't be worth it.

    What's more, the middle of the jade pendant is also engraved with a dragon and phoenix dance.

    This "Xi" and the word "Hui" in Yuanhui can be said to be one bright and one dark, and they are opposite to each other.

    Everyone in the world knows that today's son's uncle, King Su, and the regent appointed by the late emperor, his surname is Fu Mu Changxi, but few people know his name Yuanhui.

    Yuan Hui was still sitting lazily on the bed, rubbing the jade pendant in his hand with his fingertips, as if he was thinking about some kind of difficulty, frowning slightly, and pursing his thin lips.

    There was only the silent silence in the room.

    ******

    Zhen Tingyun is worthy of being the granddaughter of Mother Zhen. After she left Yuan Hui's door, she couldn't hold back and took a bite of the gold first: It seems to be true.

    Alas, what a sweet trouble to carry such a piece of gold.

    Zhen Tingyun's little heart was beating wildly, and it took a long time to settle down and think about what to do next—she first went to find Liu Shun, and asked Yuan Hui carefully about what she said.

    It's not that Zhen Tingyun doesn't believe in Yuanhui, but it's a big bag of gold after all. No matter what, he has to ask clearly, at least he must have a bottom line. Otherwise, it's not good to go back and have a problem.

    Liushun has always been honest, and when Zhen Tingyun asked about this, she also honestly said: "Yuan Gongzi said that something was left in the stable, so let me look for it, especially the piece of land under Ma Lan's head and feet. I think It wasn't a big deal, so I went, and then I saw the purse at the head and feet of Malan - it had only rained, the ground was muddy, and the purse was stained with a lot of mud, so no one could see it. The purse was also I washed it for Young Master Yuan..."

    Zhen Tingyun nodded, but felt relieved, and instructed Liushun additionally: "If there is anything else next time, remember to tell me first."

    Liu Shun hurriedly nodded in response, thought for a while and said, "Young Master Yuan also asked me to get some hot water at night to facilitate washing."

    Zhen Tingyun: "...It's not necessary to talk about such trivial matters."

    Liushun thought to himself: How should this matter be divided? Earlier, Young Master Yuan asked her to go to the stable to pick up things. Could it be considered a big deal?

    After sending Liu Shun down, Zhen Tingyun pondered what to do with the piece of gold in her hand: she still has some silver, and she won't need this piece of gold for a while, so she can only keep it by her side temporarily. But she shares a room with Mrs. Zhen. If she carries gold with her, she will definitely not be able to hide Mrs. Zhen...

    If it is discovered by Mrs. Zhen, I am afraid that the gold will not be kept. Most of it will be taken away by Mrs. Zhen on the grounds of "I will keep you safe" - after all, in Mrs. Zhen's opinion: Zhen Tingyun is her own granddaughter. Zhen Tingyun's silver is naturally also from Mrs. Zhen. As for Mother Zhen's money... Zhen Tingyun shouldn't think too much about it!

    Therefore, this gold is not good to stay around. It is in the inn again, so don't feel relieved if don't put it by side.

    Zhen Tingyun thought for a while, but in the end he could only grit his teeth and turn back to Yuan Hui's room.

    Yuan Hui hadn't slept yet, and when she saw her leaving and returning, she felt strange: "What happened to you?"

    Zhen Tingyun handed him the gold, looking like he was reluctant to part with love: "How about you take it for me first?"

    Yuan Hui: "..."

    Sometimes, he really doesn't understand how some people's brains grow.

    Zhen Tingyun didn't forget to remind him: "I asked you to keep it, not to return it to you! If I want to use it in the future, I will still take care of what you want."

    Yuan Hui was expressionless: "Haha."

    ...

    In fact, Zhen Tingyun originally wanted to ask Yuanhui a few more questions, such as "Since you had the money to buy a horse like Ma Lantou directly, why would you rob someone else's horse?" After thinking about it, he still didn't ask. ——Since people have already forgotten everything, it is actually meaningless to ask these questions.

    What's more, connecting Yuan Hui's robbing the horse to the fact that he was wounded and unconscious and was carried back by Ma Lan's head, Zhen Tingyun is not a fool, and he can infer a dangerous conclusion in his heart without asking: Yuan Hui was probably being chased and killed at the time, and in a hurry, he snatched Zhen Tingyun's horse.

    As for the people who were chasing him... Although Yuan Hui came back in a daze, if it wasn't for a horse like Ma Lantou that Zhen Tingyun had raised and knew that he had come back, I'm afraid it wouldn't be good. But now Yuan Hui is alive, and he has lived a peaceful life of recuperation. From this, it can be seen that most of these people were killed by Yuan Hui Jedi.

    What Zhen Tingyun could guess, Yuan Hui only knew better.

    However, his attitude can be called magnanimous, without concealment, and he is also a good teacher when facing Zhen Tingyun, which can be called harmless.

    Therefore, Zhen Tingyun didn't ask any more questions-although she often weighs the pros and cons and plays tricks on weekdays, she also has her own ideas and principles: if the beast trusts you and is willing to reveal its belly to you, it will not be accepted by herself. In hurt and dangerous situations, she should return the same trust.

    Of course, many years later, when Zhen Tingyun looked back at her original thoughts, she could only grit her teeth: Sure enough, she was still too young and naive back then, and she didn't see the true face of the old hooligan!

    In fact, the beast is willing to show its belly to you, it may not trust you much, maybe it is just confident enough that you can't hurt it.

    The author has something to say: Yuan·Beast·Hui: Daughter-in-law, show you your belly?

    Zhen Tingyun: After you were injured, you lay in bed every day, and you have gained three pounds. Thanks!
