The next morning, in the carriage.

Looking at Miaoyu who looked a bit tired and listless, Jia Jue asked in surprise:

"Layman, where do you feel uncomfortable?"

Because Miaoyu is going to Muni Temple today, Jia Jue personally sees her off.

Miaoyu blushed and shook her head quickly: "Thank you, my lord, I'm fine."

"I'll take the pulse for the layman." Jia Jue frowned slightly, reached out and held Miaoyu's wrist, and felt her pulse. He thought Miaoyu was sick.

Miao Yu's face turned even redder, and she hurriedly said, "My lord, I'm really fine."

Jia Jue called his pulse and frowned slightly.Indeed, Miaoyu has no other abnormalities except for being a little imaginary.

"My lord, I just didn't sleep well at night." Miaoyu explained.

The room where she rested last night was next to Second Sister You.

Therefore, she listened to certain sounds for most of the night, and only squinted for a while in a daze until the early morning.

At this time, she was sleepy, tired, and a little dehydrated, how could she be energetic?

Jia Jue was taken aback when he heard the words, but also reacted, he smiled lightly and said:
"It's causing trouble for the layman."

Miao Yu blushed and lowered her head: "My lord is serious."

Jia Jue smirked slightly. There were too many people in the courtyard. It seemed that we should pay more attention to sound insulation in the future.

Seeing that Jia Jue didn't speak, Miaoyu secretly glanced at him. After hesitating for a long time, she finally managed to say:
"Young master, your body is important."

She was afraid that Jia Jue would hurt himself because of this, so she reminded him out of embarrassment.

Jia Jue shook his head and laughed, "Thank you layman for your advice, I can save it."

As he grew older, his physical fitness became stronger and stronger, and these were nothing at all.

Of course, he couldn't explain these things to her in words.

After the two were silent for a while, Miaoyu looked at Jia Jue, took out a string of Buddhist beads from her sleeve and handed it to Jia Jue.

"This is?" Jia Jue asked.

"This is the prayer beads I used to offer to the Buddha. I have never thanked you for saving my life and the protection of Beijing, so I present this string of beads as a gift. I wish you all the best." Miaoyu said.

"In that case, thank you layman." Jia Jue accepted it with a smile, but then took out a jade pendant and gave it to her.

Miaoyu shook her head quickly: "My lord, I can't take it."

Jia Jue said with a smile: "Why do laymen look outsiders? Compared with Buddhist beads, my jade pendant is much poorer. Laymen don't accept it, but they don't look down on it?"

"No, no." Miao Yu quickly shook her head and took the jade pendant.

"This jade is called Ping An Pei, and it can protect people well. Laymen remember to take it with you." Jia Jue instructed.

Miaoyu's heart warmed, she took a deep look at Jia Jue, held the jade pendant tightly in her hand, and sighed softly, how could she not carry it with her?
After a while, the carriage stopped, and the Muni courtyard had arrived.

Jia Jue got out of the car first.

Miaoyu followed behind Jia Jue, but just as she was about to jump off the carriage, her legs gave way and she fell forward.

Jia Jue suddenly felt something strange behind him, and immediately turned his head to look, only to see Miaoyu rushing towards him with a face full of shock.

He subconsciously reached out to support her.

But suddenly he felt something strange in his hand, he quickly withdrew his hand.

But under the influence of inertia, Miaoyu rushed in front of him, bumping her pretty face into his.

In an instant, their eyes met and their lips touched.

And Jia Jue's hands were still supporting them.

Miaoyu's face turned red in an instant, her eyes were startled and ashamed, she hurriedly took a step back, then lowered her head, and ran towards the Muni courtyard without saying a word.

Looking at her back, Jia Jue said:
"Layman, if you have time, you might as well come to my house for a sit-down. If you encounter difficult things, you can come and find me."

Miaoyu stopped when she heard the words, she turned her head to look at Jia Jue, nodded slightly at him, and then quickly ran into the Muni courtyard.

Seeing her back disappear, Jia Jue sat back on the carriage again. He looked at his hands and couldn't help laughing:

"Worthy of being one of the twelve beauties, regardless of appearance or figure, they are all the best choices."

But he didn't see that after he got into the carriage, Miaoyu walked out of the door again, staring at his carriage obsessively, until the carriage completely disappeared from her eyes, she reluctantly left.

……

evening.

Jia Jue went back to Jia's mansion, but as soon as he entered the door, a woman came to report that Aunt Xue had invited her.

Jia Jue nodded and came to Lixiangyuan.

"Brother Jue, Auntie regrets not listening to you!" Aunt Xue immediately shed tears when she saw him.

Jia Jue looked at Xue Baochai and Xue Baoqin, but saw that their faces were also full of sadness.

"What happened?" he asked.

Xue Baoqin took a deep look at Jia Jue, and replied: "Something happened in the shop, someone died on the dining table of the restaurant at home."

Yesterday, when Jia Jue asked Aunt Xue to close the shop for a few days, she thought Jia Jue was overthinking and being too cautious.

But now it seems that this is insight.

She always thought that she was quick-witted and not inferior to a man, but compared with Jia Jue, she was really far behind.

Jia Jue frowned slightly: "How to deal with this matter?"

"All the shops at home have been closed, and the shopkeeper of the restaurant has been taken by the yamen for questioning." Xue Baochai replied.

Jia Jue thought for a while and said: "Cooperate with the government, no matter how much money you pay, you will admit it. If the shopkeeper goes to jail, take good care of his family. The shop will be closed for the time being. After this matter is over, we will choose a date to open it." "

The girls nodded in unison. With Jia Jue around, they seemed to have a backbone.

Jia Jue thought for a while, then suddenly asked, "Do you know who this sufferer is?"

"That... I don't know, I just said that the deceased was inspected by Wu." Aunt Xue said.

A gleam of brilliance flashed in Jia Jue's eyes: "It's not bad, as I expected, this person should not be someone else."

"what?"

The girls all stared wide-eyed, looking at him with inexplicable eyes.

Jia Jue reminded, "Think about your cousin's injury."

The girls were shocked when they heard the words, Xue Baoqin quickly asked: "Brother Jue is saying that the dead one is that Dou Xiao?"

Jia Jue nodded: "That's right, I think it should be him."

The girls looked at each other, both shocked and nervous.

Aunt Xue asked tentatively, "Brother Jue, can't it be such a coincidence?"

"Coincidence? Does Auntie think it's a coincidence?" Jia Jue asked back.

But the girls couldn't say a word.

But at this time, someone suddenly came to report: "Third Master, it's not good, a large number of people have come outside, saying that they want us to hand over the murderer, and they want to seek justice from us!"

The girls were shocked, and Jia Jue asked:
"Do you know who they are?"

The servant quickly said, "It's the Dou's family in Daxing County."

The girls changed their colors together, their faces were full of horror.

Jia Jue's words came true.
