306 Worried That Gu Qingxue Had Given a Fake Jade Pendant
Gu Qingxue quickly analyzed the virus sample that she had obtained and used the medicinal herbs to prepare a decoction that could suppress the disease.
At the same time, Lil’ Qi had already followed Gu Qingxue’s instructions and brought the jade dragon pendant to Fu Cheng.
Fu Cheng saw the jade dragon pendant and heard what Lil’ Qi had said. Without a word, he began to mobilize his men.
When Fu Cheng’s wife saw that Fu Cheng was so decisive, she could not help but be a little worried. “Master, this is not a trivial matter. Did you consult the regent prince before making a decision?”
!!
Sealing the village was not a trivial matter. They had forcefully restricted the freedom of the people. If the plague was not real, then there would be a big problem.
Fu Cheng’s expression was grave, but he still gave the order. He looked at Lil’ Qi and said, “I’ll have to trouble you to go back and tell Lady Gu that I will definitely do as she ordered.”
“In that case, this jade pendant really belongs to the prince regent?” Lil’ Qi held the jade dragon pendant in her hands and suddenly felt that the jade pendant was a little hot.
It was not that she did not trust Lady Gu’s words, but really, this was prince regent’s jade pendant!
At first, Lil’ Qi only came to look for Fu Cheng with the attitude of giving it a try. Who would have thought that this jade dragon pendant would be so effective?
Fu Cheng explained patiently, “The jade dragon pendant represents the prince regent. Seeing the jade pendant is equivalent to the prince regent coming personally. Moreover, the prince regent personally asked me to give this jade dragon pendant to Lady Gu that day. It can’t be fake.”
When Fu Cheng’s wife heard this, she was also very surprised.
She originally wanted to remind Fu Cheng that she was worried that Gu Qingxue had given him a fake jade pendant.
However, it turned out to be real!
Fu Cheng’s wife did not know who Gu Qingxue was. How could she be so favored by the prince regent?
Fu Cheng could not help but sigh in his heart when he saw his wife’s surprised expression.
The prince regent indeed treated Lady Gu differently. Others might not be able to tell, but he was as clear as a mirror in his heart.
Not only that, Lady Gu was no ordinary person. Since she used the jade dragon pendant, it was obvious that the situation was urgent. He had to go personally.
Fu Cheng also packed his luggage and rushed to tie Jin mountain with his men at the fastest speed.
Fu Cheng had almost sent out all his men, including the bailiffs. There were 30 to 40 people in total. Together with the dozen or so skilled servants he raised, they all wore veils and left Qingyuan Town.
Such a team passed through the main street of Qingyuan Town, naturally attracting the attention of the pedestrians.
The pedestrians stood on both sides of the road, watching the team pass in front of them and discussing incessantly.
Bing’er happened to be out to buy pastries for Princess Liuying. Like the other pedestrians, she stood by the side of the road and watched the team pass, confusion rising in her eyes.
Seeing that the pedestrians by the roadside were discussing fervently, Bing’er curiously approached, with a smile on her face, she asked one of the women, “This woman, may I ask what exactly happened in the town? With so many constables and bailiffs, where exactly are they going?”
When the woman saw that Bing’er was curious, she immediately said with a gossipy expression, “Such a big thing has happened. It can’t be that you haven’t heard of it, right? I heard that a woman took the prince regent’s jade pendant to the county master and asked the county master to send his men to seal a village and not allow anyone to enter or leave.”
