The protective jade pendant worn since childhood was still very important to Lin Sishen, so she was going to sneak out of the general's mansion early the next morning to redeem the jade pendant.

Recently, General Lin's ban on her has not been lifted, so she can only take advantage of the daylight to sneak through the back garden and climb out from the high wall next to a clump of green bamboo groves.

With a light jump, her hands cling to the wall tiles, and with a light push of her legs, Lin Sishen easily rides on the high wall. She glanced down and found that no one was escaping outside.

In the Liuguang Pavilion, Shen Qinghou, the waiter in the shade, got up, and after she had washed up, she opened the window directly to let in the air.

Unexpectedly, when she raised her eyes, she saw a sneaky figure climbed up the high wall beside the bamboo forest.

Lu Yin's complexion changed, and she stretched out her hand and hurriedly said to Shen Qinghou who was beside her: "Princess, look at someone climbing over the wall, could it be that the general's mansion has entered the thieves."

Shen Qinghou put down the scroll in her hand, and walked slowly, at a glance, she instantly recognized that the man was Lin Sishen.

The surprise in her eyes flashed past, and then her thin lips were slightly raised, and she said jokingly: "I climbed over the wall early in the morning, it seems that Mr. Lin was not surprised yesterday."

It was just a vague figure from the back, and Lu Yin couldn't tell who it was at all, but he didn't expect Shen Qinghou to be sure that it was Lin Sishen with just one glance.

Out of the corner of Lu Yin's eye, he caught a glimpse of the man on the wall, looked around furtively, then jumped out and disappeared.

She turned her head to look at Shen Qinghou with some doubts and asked, "If you don't leave the main entrance, what is he doing over the wall?"

Shen Qinghou smiled without saying a word, she walked lightly to the table, picked up the scroll she had put down before, and suddenly put it down again after turning two pages.

She asked softly, "Is there any news from Zhuo Ran?"

Lu Yin was stunned for a moment, and then realized: "Yes, I said I searched for it all night but I couldn't find it."

Shen Qinghou thought for a while, thinking of Lin Sishen who had climbed over the wall, but only picked up the scroll again, and ordered in a cold tone: "Tell them, there is no need to look for it."

"No." Lu Yin saluted respectfully, and when she saw Shen Qinghou reading the book quietly, she retreated quietly.

The princess was a little strange yesterday, after waiting for Lin Sishen all day, after returning at night, he ordered someone to go to the mountain behind Xichen Temple to find some jade pendants.

The thing has not been found yet, and today he said strangely that there is no need to look for it. The master's mind is really hard to guess.

In order to hurry, Lin Sishen specially borrowed a horse, knocked on the gate as soon as the city gate opened, and rushed to the small town yesterday.

After about an hour, Lin Sishen finally arrived at the gate of the clinic, and the first thing he did when he saw the doctor was not to ask Yupei, but to ask how the injured woman was doing.

The doctor was drying herbs in the courtyard, raised his eyelids to look at her, and replied: "You said that seriously injured woman yesterday, she left as soon as she woke up this morning, before half a stick of incense, probably."

Lin Sishen was stunned, and hurriedly asked: "Let's go, isn't her injury serious? How can she go?"

The doctor had a sullen face, and said with some resentment: "The injury is serious, but I don't think that woman is an ordinary person, she is very strong. My wife just went to check on her injury this morning. When she woke up, she almost strangle my wife."

It is true that she is not an ordinary person. With the knife wound on her body and being hunted down, I am afraid that her identity is not simple.

Coupled with yesterday's contact, Lin Sishen felt that her skill was not weak, and when she woke up today, she had the strength to pinch someone, presumably her injuries had also stabilized, so she felt relieved.

She took out the purse, generously took out a few pieces of silver ingots, and said with a smile: "Doctor, apart from yesterday's soup and medicine expenses, the rest is for me to make amends to your wife on her behalf."

The doctor coughed lightly and stood up, and accepted the money unceremoniously: "My lord is kind."

Seeing that he had collected the money, Lin Sishen asked, "Then, that jade pendant that I temporarily mortgaged yesterday?"

The doctor squinted at her: "Jade pendant, that woman snatched it away."

Lin Sishen was stunned and couldn't believe it, she asked anxiously, "What is she doing to grab that jade pendant?"

The doctor stuffed the silver ingot back into his sleeve, then picked up a handful of herbs, and glanced at her: "How do I know, I didn't take all this money from you for nothing, I cured the man, and I returned the jade pendant."

At first, Lin Sishen thought that the doctor wanted to covertly make up nonsense because of the good quality of the jade pendant. It wasn't until she saw the frightened wife that she finally believed that her jade pendant had really been snatched away by that woman.

There was a bruise on the lady's neck, and when she saw Lin Sishen, she cried and complained: "I went to see her early this morning, but when she woke up, she strangled my neck like crazy. Let go. I was almost strangled by her, and then she saw me wearing your jade pendant, and said she looked familiar. I said it was mortgaged by the young master, but she snatched the jade pendant away without saying a word, and said that the young master will come back lose money."

"My husband and I have practiced medicine for many years. How have we ever seen such an unreasonable reckless person? My son, your friend doesn't seem like a good person."

The madam was still nagging, Lin Sishen's face was already darkened, it really is unreasonable, she saved the woman's life, and when she turned around, she even walked away with her own jade pendant.

Just as she was gnashing her teeth and scolding herself that she deserved to meddle in her own business, there was a sound of howling horses outside the medical hall.

Lin Sishen's face changed, she ran out quickly, and sure enough, she saw that her horse had also been snatched away.

The person on the horse is none other than the woman she saved yesterday.

The woman was still dressed in black, and her face was much ruddy, without the frail look of yesterday, and the glamorous and charming face on her face became more and more eye-catching.

She was riding on a horse, dangling Lin Sishen's jade pendant in her hand, seeing Lin Sishen rushing out the door, she smiled provocatively: "You really came."

Lin Sishen stood on the stone steps, looked at the smiling woman, and said with a smile: "Miss, you can't repay kindness like this, this jade pendant and the horse belong to me."

Unexpectedly, the woman blinked at her, her eyes were full of coquettishness, her voice was charming and joking: "You don't know who I am and dare to save me, I can only say that you are unlucky."

An ominous premonition came to his mind, Lin Sishen walked down the stone steps slowly, looked at her with a frown: "What do you mean?"

Seeing her approaching, the woman pulled the rein slightly, and the horse raised its hooves and let out a long roar, and backed up a few steps: "It means, thank you for your generous rescue, young master. I will accept both the jade pendant and the horse."

Lin Sishen had a smile on his face, but in his heart he scolded the woman for being a white-eyed wolf: "Your injury is still not healed, you are not suitable for riding a horse, how about I hire a carriage for you to take the girl back?"

The woman squinted at her for a while, then opened her mouth lightly, and said four words leisurely: "There will be a period later."

Lin Sishen's smile froze on his face: "You..."

After finishing a word, the woman shook the reins, and the horse galloped out of the town.

Lin Sishen chased after him, and shouted in a hurry: "Give me back my jade pendant."

It's a pity that no matter how well Lin Sishen could run, he couldn't run a horse, and there were few people on the street, so the woman disappeared before his eyes in a short while, it was just a laughing voice blowing back with the wind.

"If we meet again by fate, this jade will definitely be returned."

Lin Sishen looked at the woman who was riding Juechen dumbfoundedly, and had no choice but to curse bitterly: "White-eyed wolf."

She doesn't know who that woman is, let alone where she lives, so it's all right now, she really lost her wife and lost her army.She tried her best to save his life, but in the end the jade pendant was robbed, and even the horse she bought was robbed.

What's more unfortunate is that she didn't have much money left on her body, and it seemed that she could only walk back the same way as yesterday.
