Seeing that everyone believed what Yan Yuhuan said, the woman panicked for a moment. She turned her head and looked at the crowd. She didn't know what signal she had received. She changed her voice and continued.

"Even if I am not a wealthy lady, there is no doubt that the hairpin you sold me is defective."

Yan Yuhuan calmly picked up the hairpin and looked at it. Then he walked to a lady and took a look at the bracelet on her hand. She praised it.

"This lady's bracelet is really beautiful. She also specially designed some hollow patterns. It looks more delicate and lighter than ordinary bracelets."

The lady was suddenly praised, even if it was just for jewelry, and her face showed a happy look.

"I bought this bracelet at your house. Master Bai from Zhenqiao Pavilion carved it himself."

After hearing this, Yan Yuhuan praised her again, saying that the bracelet matched the lady very well, leaving everyone else confused as to what she wanted to do.

"I wonder if Madam remembers buying this bracelet, how much money she spent on it, and when she bought it."

The young lady thought for a while and then answered. It seemed that she spent one hundred and eighty taels of silver three months ago.

This bracelet is the best in terms of carving and water quality. It is worth one hundred and eighty taels of silver.

The woman who started the trouble found that Yan Yuhuan ignored her at all, and a flash of jealousy and dissatisfaction flashed across her face.

"It seems that this Treasure Pavilion is nothing more than that. A young master doesn't want to solve this kind of problem. The master makes us, the guests who spend money, suffer."

"Who will dare to come to your store to buy something in the future? If you are lucky, you will buy a good product. If you are not lucky, you will buy a defective product."

After a few words from the woman, the others were persuaded to follow suit. Yan Yuhuan spread his hands and responded very calmly.

"Can't you still see it? This hairpin does not belong to our family at all. Just now I asked you how much money you spent and when you bought it. You couldn't answer a single word."

She turned her head and waved to Shopkeeper Liu, "Shopkeeper Liu, if the gems on this hairpin are flawless, how much silver should this hairpin sell for?"

"It should be worth at least two hundred taels of silver."

Yan Yuhuan had already done the calculations. One tael of silver was equivalent to a thousand yuan in modern terms, and two hundred taels was equivalent to more than 200,000 yuan.

If someone spent more than 200,000 yuan to buy a car, how could he not observe it carefully when buying it? Even if he did not see it clearly at the time, he would definitely be able to remember when he spent 200,000 yuan.

"You are a servant who sweeps the house. Let's not say how much your monthly salary is. Let's just say that you bought such an expensive hairpin. You don't even remember how much you spent and when you bought it? "

Every time Yan Yuhuan said a word, the other party's face turned pale and his body involuntarily stepped back, while Yan Yuhuan was approaching step by step.

"Tell me, tell me which family you are a girl from? How can you get such a high salary every month, even better than me, the princess?"

After everyone listened, they couldn't help but show thoughtful expressions. From this point of view, what this woman said was full of loopholes and could not withstand careful examination.

"I...I have a bad memory, can't I?"

"Of course, but I doubt you're looking for trouble now."

Yan Yuhuan knew that this person came to cause trouble, and there must be someone behind the scenes. Since this was the case, he didn't mind continuing to dig holes for the other party.

"Why don't we report it to the official? If you are the girl of a wealthy businessman, it means that the owner of your family is very charitable and gives so much monthly money to his girl Sasa."

Yan Yuhuan paused deliberately, then continued.

"If the person behind you is an official of our court, then you have to check carefully to see how much money comes from one official."

These officials in the capital can only get a hundred taels of monthly salary from the fourth rank and above, and they have wives, children and children to support in their daily lives.

If the other party really reveals his family background, no matter who is the master behind him, he will not get any benefit. A wealthy businessman can give more monthly gifts to his servants than the emperor in the palace.

If he is an official, there is a possibility of corruption. Otherwise, how could he get so much money?

The woman also understood the key to this and fell into a dilemma. Suddenly she stepped forward and grabbed the hairpin on the stage.

"I may have remembered it wrong. This thing was indeed not bought at Zhenbao Pavilion. I will go back and think about it carefully."

"Zhou Simo, stop her."

Yan Yuhuan gave an order, and Zhou Simo immediately took a step forward. The long sword in his hand was already unsheathed and was blocking the woman's face.

"Ah!" This scene startled the woman, and she screamed unconsciously, and her whole body was paralyzed to the ground uncontrollably.

"What...what do you want to do? It's illegal to kill someone on the street."

"How could I do such a thing?" Yan Yu recalled with a smile and told shopkeeper Liu next to him.

"Since someone is looking for trouble, this matter must be reported to the officials and let the officials investigate to find out who instigated her blackmail."

"Oh, it seems that I am still a princess, and I should be able to rise in rank. When the time comes, I will ask if blackmailing the princess of the imperial court will increase my crime."

Yan Yuhuan said the harshest words in the most innocent tone. The woman who collapsed on the ground had already been frightened out of her wits. She raised her head and searched among the crowd.

Then her eyes lit up and she rushed over, rolling and crawling, "Miss, help me, I don't want to be locked up."

Everyone followed the sound and looked over, and found that the person whose dress was being pulled was Princess Duan'an, the daughter of King Duan.

"Sister, I haven't seen you for a while. I didn't expect you to become more and more cunning. I was just joking with you. As for reporting to the official?"

Under the gaze of everyone, Princess Duanan had no choice but to stand up and show a cheeky smile no matter how reluctant she was.

"I didn't expect my sister to be so incapable of making jokes. At worst, I won't make fun of you anymore."

Yan Yuhuan looked at the other person's face, and suddenly thought that in modern times, she would encounter many such shameless colleagues, who would regard vulgarity as humor, and when they find you angry, they would deliberately say it was a joke.

This often puts you in a dilemma. If you really get angry with her, you will look stingy. If you don't get angry with her, you will feel like you are holding your breath.

Chuntao had already whispered to Yan Yuhuan and introduced the identity of Princess Duan'an. The two were both princesses, but they had not gotten along since childhood.

They would pinch each other fiercely every time they met. I heard that it was because of Li Yan that both of them had fallen in love with Li Yan at first, but their mother was more skillful and let Li Yan take the initiative to enter the house.
