Princess Zhaoyan immediately gnaws her teeth. Haven’t they been listening here from the beginning? “Not long ago”, Liang He is really……
Yu Ling understands that things are exposed. She didn't expect that the two people who had left would come back at this time, and catch them by surprise.
However, Yuling finds that the Princess’s House is very quiet. There is no one outside except Liang He and Yan Ling. Or, maybe there is a turnaround.
"I beg you, Your Highness. I will let him hand over the jade pendant. Please let him go, Your Highness." Yuling suddenly kneels down.
Liang He frowns. Everyone begs him to let them go. Does he really look like so pliable?
"It's a serious matter. Don't make it hard for His Highness, Yuling. Why don't you take us to meet your lover? We’ll see what to do after finding out the truth" Yan Ling knows Liang He's mind and feels funny.
Yuling understands that Yan Ling seems to be discussing with her, but how can she refuse as a servant?
When Fu Ci sees Liang He and others in the tunnel, he is shocked and subconsciously wants to use his sword to defend. But his face turns pale immediately because his movement tears his wound.
"A-Ci!" Yuling screams, then runs to him and supports him, and her tears are flowing down.
Yuling cries to Fu Ci: "His Highness, they already know everything. A-Ci, you explain to them clearly. His Highness will certainly let you go. "
Fu Ci frowns, obviously resisting, but he hesitates because of Yuling's words. After a while, Fu Ci puts down his sword and takes out his jade pendant.
"I believe that you must hear about the Nanga tribe. This is a sacred thing handed down by our tribe from generation to generation. It could not leave the Nanga tribe." Fu Ci says slowly.
"In this case, how could this jade pendant appear here inexplicably? In the hands of the Emperor." Yan Ling asks. She has been wondering how the Third Prince got the jade pendant.
After hearing this, Fu Ci sighs and helplessly says, "I heard from the Elder that some time ago, a young and handsome man came to our tribe..."
"Liang Yi?" Asks Liang He.
Fu Ci nods and continues: "originally, the Nanga tribe does not welcome outsiders, but the daughter of the Patriarch said that it was a friend she made outside, so the man stayed."
"Then within a few days, the jade pendant was lost. And the young man, your Third Prince, disappeared with it.” When Fu Ci says this, he looks at Liang He a little angrily.
Unauthorized duplication: this narrative has been taken without consent. Report sightings.
Liang He doesn't pay attention to him. He looks thoughtful and then suddenly asks with a smile, "As a stranger. How can Liang Yi get your sacred thing so easily?"
Fu Ci has been angry about this thing. Hearing Liang He's words, he thinks that Liang He doesn't believe him, and he snorts coldly.
"There are some things I didn't intend to say in order not to embarrass your Third Prince. Now, you force me to say it!" Fu Ci says angrily.
Liang He doesn’t speak, but his heart is suddenly filled with expectations. Saving face for Liang Yi? Liang He has never thought about it, especially in front of Yan Ling.
"Your Third Prince said a lot of sweet words to our patriarch's daughter before. This time, more importantly, he told her that as long as he takes the jade pendant to the Emperor, he will marry her immediately." Fu Ci obviously despises this.
"And then?" Liang He asks, paying attention to the expression of Yan Ling.
"Hum! Then the man took the jade pendant and knocked out the daughter of the patriarch and left her outside the tribe." Fu Ci is obviously angry about this.
Liang He is not satisfied -- with Yan Ling’s expression. After hearing all this, Yan Ling doesn't respond at all. Shouldn't she hate Liang Yi?
Liang He doesn't know that if she hates a person to the extreme, no matter what he did, she would not be too shocked or even take it for granted.
The reason why Yan Ling is so calm at this time is that she knows what kind of person Liang Yi is, so it's not surprising.
After they know the cause of this event, Liang He and Yan Ling walk out of the secret tunnel.
"What are you going to do next?" Yan Ling asks.
Liang He also inevitably falls into deep thought. In fact, Fu Ci only wants to take back the thing belonging to him, and there is no fault. However, the problem is that the thing belongs to the Royal Family now.
Moreover, Liang He and Yan Ling may believe Fu Ci. However, if they really go to the Hall and tell this to the Emperor, the Emperor will not let this scandal unfold, let alone whether Liang Yi will admit it or not.
Liang He understands that Yan Ling is always soft-hearted. She is obviously trying to help Yuling and Fu Ci. Of course, Liang He will try his best to help Yan Ling accomplish what she wants to do.
"Father said that after I catch the culprit, I deal with him by myself, as long as I take the jade pendant back." Liang He thinks for a long time and suddenly says this.
Yan Ling frowns. She doesn’t understand, but also doesn’t say much.
According to Liang He, he just needs to bring the jade pendant back to the Emperor. Then, he can tell the Emperor that the culprit refused to be arrested and was killed in the process of capture.
However, the original solution to the problem is not at all feasible to Fu Ci. He has never been planning to hand over the jade pendant to protect his life from beginning to now.
"No, this jade pendant is the sacred thing of our Nanga tribe. Even if I sacrifice my life, I can't give it away." Fu Ci says stubbornly.
"You can't bring it back to the Nanga tribe, even if you lose your life." Says Liang He, frowning.
Fu Ci understands this, but he could not give up. He says decisively: "even if I can't bring back the jade pendant, I will live with it together. You don't have to worry about me, but I will have a good confrontation with the Emperor."
Liang He only feels troublesome when he sees the scene. To be honest, Liang He understands the significance of this sacred thing for a tribe.
For example, the Emperor would never allow his Imperial Seal to be taken away by others.
However, since this matter is Liang He’s responsibility, he must give an explanation. If the culprit is gone, he can let the Prime Minister “find” one.
However, the Emperor said that he must take the jade back. Let alone give the jade pendant to others, even if the jade pendant is damaged, Liang He can't bear the consequence.
