Chapter 572

"Alright, let's move to another place and continue drinking! If you don't get drunk, you won't go home tonight!" Pei Qinghan put down the wine glass, and ignoring the questioning eyes from Lord Zheng, pulled Cang Shuhang and left.

The two changed from the Zuixian Building to the Dining Room. The Dining Room was as full of friends as the Zuixian Building, but it was not as noisy as the Zuixian Building. The two entered a separate private room, and the second child quickly served the wine and food.

Pei Qinghan raised his glass and asked, "I haven't asked Xiongtai about your surname."

Actually he asked. . .

Cang Shuhang bowed to Pei Qinghan: "In Xia Cang Shuhang, it is the prefect of Dongyang House."

Pei Qinghan was stunned for a moment. Those who attended the banquet of Lord Zheng today were all officials of the third rank and above in the capital, as well as uncles like him. How could he be invited to the banquet when he was only a fourth rank prefect.

Cang Shuhang hurriedly said: "That's right, Master Zheng and I are distant relatives. We happened to be talking together today, and we were forcibly pulled over by Master Zheng."

That was the case, Pei Qinghan suddenly realized that he did not look down on Cang Shuhang. Compared with his reputation as a good-looking Marquis, the prefect has more power than him.

Still thinking about what happened just now, Pei Qinghan asked, "Brother Cang hasn't told me yet, why did the emperor mention me in front of you today?"

Cang Shuhang thought he had forgotten, but he still remembered. . .

Pei Qinghan raised his eyebrows. Seeing that Cang Shuhang seemed reluctant to speak, he felt a little angry, "What? Is it inconvenient to say?"

Cang Shuhang smiled awkwardly, thinking about how to deal with it, but Pei Qinghan, relying on a bit of drunkenness, patted the table and stood up, angrily said, "Since you won't tell me, then I'll ask the emperor."

Pei Qinghan turned around to leave, but Cang Shuhang was terrified, he rushed in front of him and stopped him, "Don't worry, Marquis, I said, can't I say it?" But now that he has leaked his words, if he doesn't make it clear, once the Marquis stabs this matter in front of the emperor, won't he be dead? Now tell Lord Hou and ask him to keep it a secret, maybe he can save his life.

Cang Shuhang recounted the ins and outs of the matter, and the startled Pei Qinghan's drunkenness disappeared instantly.

"You said the jade pendant, but there is a jade Buddha carved on it, and there is a little redness between the fingers?" Pei Qinghan asked anxiously.

Cang Shuhang nodded: "That's right. The shape of the jade is very special, and the texture is also rare and rare. I think it's really good, and it was sent to the Empress Dowager. Who would have thought it would cause such a disaster."

"So, you have already found the source of the jade pendant?" Pei Qinghan asked.

Cang Shuhang picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank it: "No, tomorrow, I will go to Qingyuan with the emperor's people to thoroughly investigate the matter. What kind of children did they mention, I don't know what happened. What's going on, this time, I'm only responsible for leading the way, the emperor's people should know the inside story."

Pei Qinghang's face was pale, and thousands of thoughts rushed through his heart, or if the child was still alive, what should he do if she was still alive?

He suddenly thought of King Jin and the marriage contract between King Jin and her. At first, he didn't know that the child had a marriage contract with King Jin. If he had known earlier, he would keep whatever the child said, as long as he climbed up with King Jin. Dear, are you still worried that Chang Yuanhou's mansion is not prosperous?

After calculating this, he had an idea in his heart and asked Cang Shuhang, "Brother Cang, the place you just mentioned is Qingyuan Town?" He knew that this place was very close to the battlefield on the northwest frontier. .
