Everyone cheered happily, held up strings of valuable jewelry, and went out together.
"I want to buy two coats and a new pair of shoes. My shoes were bought the year before last," Axiang said.
"I want to buy a hand mask. It's too cold to wash clothes in winter." Axia said.
"Brother Ye, what are you going to buy?" Aqiu asked.
The four grown men scratched the backs of their heads and giggled confusedly and foolishly.
this?
They don't go shopping on weekdays, and they don't know what clothes look good and what clothes don't look good. They just want to wear them to keep them warm.
"Sister Rou'er, what do you want to buy?" A Dong asked.
"I?"
Rou'er is not very old, but she is Ye Jinxiao's personal maid. She has a high status, so when she is called 'sister', it is an honorific title.
"I'm going to cut two new clothes for the lady, and we'll take a look at the others."
The group of people got together and left the house happily.
On the way, many maids and servants saw them and cast disdainful glances:
"It's like you've never seen a reward, country boy!"
"How high-minded can people who come from Lengyuan be?"
"Concubine Liu often rewards us. Whenever she gives us jade or luminous pearls, they are so generous. Look at how they have never seen the world."
"Concubine Liu is the mistress in charge of this palace..."
"that is……"
Ye Jinxiao changed some clothes and went out.
Little did she know that as soon as she left, a figure sneaked into the cold courtyard, got into the house, and quickly poured something into the kettle.
Yuezhu bit her back molars viciously.
Vixen!
Bitch!
I'll ruin your face and see how you seduce the prince in the future!
-
In the capital city, there is a steady drizzle and a cold breeze. People are still coming and going on the streets, which is very lively.
Rou'er and others went to the pawn shop and exchanged the jewelry for silver notes.
The pawn shop owner recognized Rou'er at a glance.
"Hey, girl, you're here again."
At first, the jade pendant she thought she gave him was a priceless treasure. She received it for twenty taels of silver. The next day someone offered it two thousand taels, and he was reluctant to sell it.
Rou'er is not so stupid this time.
Before coming, the lady had already 'educated' her in advance.
"Boss, you made a lot of money from me last time. I was busy at the time and was too lazy to argue with you. If you dare to beat my price for today's items, I will go to another pawn shop."
The boss felt nervous.
I thought that the little girl was young and ignorant, but I didn't expect that she was pretending to be confused because she understood.
How dare he neglect this distinguished guest again?
Soon, the jewelry brought by Rou'er and others were exchanged for a good price. They took the banknotes with satisfaction and went shopping.
not far away.
King Xiaoyao shook his folding fan and was about to go to Chunfeng Tower to listen to music, when he saw a group of people coming out of the pawn shop.
They recognized Ye Yi, Ye Er and Ye San Ye Si at a glance.
Wasn't that the person who followed Princess Yu to cause trouble at the Liu Mansion banquet that day?
They are Princess Yu's people.
Princess Yu has power and wealth, and the people under her are naturally good. When did she need to go to a pawn shop to exchange money?
King Xiaoyao frowned, feeling strange.
He closed the jade bone fan, clapped it in his palm, and walked into the pawn shop confidently.
"Ouch, your lord!"
As soon as the boss saw his clothes and temperament, he knew that he was an extraordinary person and hurriedly came forward to treat the guests:
"I wonder what you want to buy, sir? Jewelry, jade and purple crowns, weapons and accessories, everything is available. Just take a look."
King Xiaoyao glanced lazily at the shop.
The shop was not large, and there were rare objects collected from various places on the counter, but there was nothing that interested him.
"I ask you."
Point the jade bone fan in the distance,
"What did that group of people who went out just now do to you?"
The boss was stunned for a moment.
Is this young man working with them?
Why is he asking about this?
A pawn shop is no different from an ordinary shop. There are many items of unknown origin in the pawn shop, which cannot be presented in the public hall, so it is inconvenient to reveal the privacy of customers.
When he was hesitating, a large-denomination bank note suddenly appeared in front of him.
Five hundred taels!
The boss immediately opened his eyes when he saw the money: "Sir, please take a look!"
After taking the banknote, I immediately took out the jewelry from the drawer.
"The group of people just pawned these jewelry."
Jade bracelets, gemstone hairpins, luminous pearls...all are of the highest quality.
King Xiaoyao glanced sideways: "Is that all?"
"Yeah, there's nothing else."
The boss nodded, suddenly his eyes rolled, and he looked shrewdly at the man in front of him.
To spend so generously, he must be from a rich family.
Someone offered him two thousand taels for the jade pendant last time, and he was reluctant to sell it. If he could make twenty thousand taels from this young master...
You won’t have to worry about running out of business in the next year!
"By the way, there is one more thing."
Making up his mind, he strode to the counter.
"There is a jade pendant here, it was made by them, but it was already last month."
"Master, please take a look."
A brocade box was placed on the table.
I saw a piece of pure black jade pendant placed inside. It was of high quality and flawless. It was engraved with a dragon totem and was as cold as frost and snow.
Dragon totem!
King Xiaoyao's pupils shrank sharply, and he immediately picked up the jade pendant and looked at the back. There was a "five" hidden in the complicated pattern.
This is Lao Wu’s jade pendant!
He also has an identical piece on his body, except that "four" is engraved on the back, which means that he is the fourth prince and the fourth in rank.
Each of the five brothers has a piece!
"I collected this from them?!"
"right."
The boss smiled and said: "I wonder if you like it, sir? The price is negotiable."
How can this be!
Seven years ago, Lao Wu was attacked and accidentally lost this jade pendant that symbolized his status, and was severely punished by his father.
Why is this jade pendant at Ye Jinxiao's place?
Could it be...
Could it be that the person who saved Lao Wu seven years ago was not Liu Mingyue at all, but Ye Jinxiao! ?
-
Ye Jinxiao went to the street and bought a pot of Shaodaozi wine, ready to go to Ye Qi's place.
Speaking of which, Ye Qi has a very strong taste and prefers Shaodaozi wine, which is the cheapest but the highest alcoholic beverage.
After one bite, the burning sensation was like piercing the intestines and stomach, but he was intoxicated, stroking the sword wrapped in black cloth, and lost consciousness for a long time...
He has a story.
But he never said a word to her.
But when he taught her martial arts, he tried his best without hiding anything, but how much she could learn depended entirely on her ability.
"Help!"
"Help, help! Oh God!"
In the crowd, a fierce scream suddenly sounded, causing many people to turn their heads in shock.
I saw a woman in luxurious clothes running out of the restaurant with a child in her arms, shouting in panic. The servants accompanying her hurriedly went to a nearby medical clinic to call for help, but the child in her arms actually...
His throat was stabbed with a chopstick and it penetrated to the back of his head!
Large mouthfuls of blood spat out from his mouth.
The lady was so anxious that she cried:
"My dear grandson! My dear grandson! God, is there a doctor? Please help me. Someone come and save my dear grandson!"
"Oh my God!"
When the people saw this scene, they were all shocked:
"The chopsticks pierced your throat and head. How can you survive?"
"As soon as the chopsticks were pulled out, didn't all the brains burst out?"
"This child is bound to die."
"It's so scary, so scary..."
