The reason Xia Jin was able to make such a conclusion was actually because of the two spiritual jades she dug up.
The reason why spiritual jade contains spiritual energy is that during the formation process, the jade enveloped part of the weak spiritual energy, thus forming spiritual jade.
The premise of all this is that the environment in which it grows must have spiritual energy!
Where there are spiritual stones, the surrounding spiritual energy is usually not too low. However, the two spiritual stones collected by Xia Jin did not have sufficient spiritual energy. This shows that there is no spiritual energy in this place to nourish these two pieces of jade.
Therefore, Xia Jin concluded that there were no longer spiritual stones here.
Because the spiritual stone has been dug away, the spiritual jade is in such a stagnant state!
If left here for a long time, they will slowly turn into ordinary jade, which is why spiritual jade is difficult to find.
However, if the spiritual jade is taken away before this and nourished by people to complement each other, the spiritual energy can be retained.
Therefore, most of the spiritual jade will be made into personal accessories to wear, or used as a townhouse, placed in places where people frequently visit.
After leaving the mine and returning to Xuerong City, Xia Jin said goodbye to the city lord the next day. The one-month deadline was very close. They rushed back to the capital before that to give an explanation to the emperor!
The letters exchanged with Qu Rongjie found in Lifeng Mansion are the best evidence to prove his innocence!
"Dad, I want to go to the capital with my master!" Li Qiang mustered up his courage and said it.
"Master?" Li Xiaotian looked at Xia Jin.
Xia Jin explained, "I have accepted him as my disciple!"
Li Xiaotian heard this and said, "Quinzi, please leave it to Master Xia!"
When he said this, Li Xiaotian's tone was filled with a feeling of relief.
For him, having someone take Li Qiang away was a big trouble for him!
In fact, he had long wanted to remove Li Qiang from the family, but he kept him because of the ancestral precepts.
It would be great if someone could take him away now!
Watching them go away, Li Xiaotian frowned. The eldest lady looked at him and asked: "Master, it is a good thing to send Li Qiang away, but are you really determined to drive the boss out?"
"You must not violate the ancestral teachings. Don't mention him in front of me in the future!" Li Xiaotian said coldly.
Although the eldest lady was unwilling to do so, she had no choice but to keep her mouth shut.
But deep down, I still have complaints!
After everyone dispersed, she secretly left the city, found Li Feng in a hut on the outskirts, and handed him the prepared food box.
Li Feng took the food box, took out the roast chicken and ate it heartily. Seeing how hungry he was, the eldest lady felt very sad.
"Your father is determined not to let you come back!"
Li Feng stopped chewing the chicken leg and said, "Mom, if I don't go back to the city, where can I go?"
"Don't you associate with Qu Rongjie? Go find him!" the eldest lady said angrily.
"Qu Linjie and I only have money transactions, how can you help me?" Li Feng lowered his head, "Mom, the only person who can help me now is you!"
The eldest lady said discouraged: "It's not like you don't know your father's temper! No one can change what he decides!"
"Mom, please think of another way. I am working so hard to earn money, isn't it just to help the family, so as to save my father from marrying my fifth sister to someone else's stupid son!" Li Feng said.
The eldest lady took out a token from her arms and said, "Go to the capital and find your uncle! He will find a good future for you!"
Li Feng took the token and said, "Mom, didn't grandpa kick my mother out of the house? If I go, will he take me in?"
"Your grandpa has been dead for many years. He has resentment towards me, but your uncle doesn't!" After the eldest lady finished speaking, she stood up.
"Go quickly, don't stay here, lest your father sees it and loses his temper again!"
Watching the eldest lady walk away, Li Feng looked at the token in his hand and gritted his teeth.
"Sooner or later, I will avenge this revenge!"
…
Beijing.
Early in the morning, officers and soldiers gathered outside the gate of the Food God Hall.
Today is the day when the one-month limit expires. If Xia Jin has no way to prove his innocence, the Food God Hall will be sealed and everyone there will be taken away as prisoners and handed over to the Dongmen family.
When the time comes, they will all become Dongmen Qian's burial objects.
Zhang Ma was sitting at the counter, not thinking about counting the money on the table, and she looked listless.
Siji stood by the counter, tugging at his sleeves, his hands trembling with worry.
Mu Baihao leaned against the open kitchen, folding his hands across his chest, staring coldly at the door, looking at the kitchen knife on the chopping board from time to time.
Chen Muda sat on the stool and scratched his head, "Master, why aren't you back yet?"
"You won't leave us and run away!" the waiter said tremblingly.
"My boss is not that kind of person!" Si Ji put his hands on his hips and said firmly.
"Maybe I'm on my way back now." Zhang Ma looked outside the store door.
As soon as noon has passed, the officers and soldiers will come in to arrest people. By then, none of them will be able to escape!
A month ago, Dongmen Qian died in the God of Food Hall, and the God of Food Hall took the blame for the murder. The Dongmen family asked the emperor to give an explanation, and the emperor just wanted to put an end to the trouble.
If it weren't for Lin Ziyi's guarantee, I'm afraid they would have been captured long ago.
Now, no matter where you go to find help, it's useless. You can only wait for Xia Jin to come back with evidence!
Seeing the sun getting higher, everyone was silent, and time passed by minute by second, until the sun rose above the head, and noon was here!
With a gesture from the leader, a group of officers and soldiers rushed into the food hall.
"Arrest everyone in here!"
The soldiers rushed forward. Mu Baihao picked up the kitchen knife and planned to fight!
At this moment, a clear voice came from outside: "Stop!"
Everyone followed the sound and saw Xia Jin standing outside the door.
"My boss is back!" Zhang's mother was very excited, and Si Ji was so excited that she cried.
Mu Baihao breathed a sigh of relief and slowly put down the kitchen knife. Chen Muda breathed a sigh of relief as if he had been pardoned, and then crawled out from under the table.
Seeing that Xia Jin was back, the leading officers and soldiers made a "please" gesture and said: "Boss Xia, please come to the palace!"
Xia Jin walked out and followed the officers and soldiers away. Seeing Xia Jin was about to leave, Mu Baihao, Si Ji and others chased after him.
"Master!"
Xia Jin looked back at everyone, gave everyone a reassuring look, and said with relief: "Don't worry, I'll be back soon!"
In the palace, on the political hall.
The emperor was sitting on the dragon chair, with a group of courtiers standing below him. Prime Minister Qu stood at the head of the row of civil servants, but the head of the row of military ministers was empty.
Looking at the empty seats, Prime Minister Qu looked proud.
Originally, he was thinking of finding some opportunity to take away part of the military power from Lin Ziyi, but he didn't expect the opportunity to come like this.
After Xia Jin was sent to the Dongmen family, he could make suggestions to the emperor about weakening his military power on the charge of failing to do things well.
Just as he was thinking this, he heard the eunuch shout: "Take Xia Jin to the palace!"
