Shen Qiaochen was actually not familiar with Xiao Jue. The only thing she knew about him was his amazing ability to lead troops in his previous life and his reputation for killing his mother and brother.
The young man in front of Shen Qiaochen was still fifteen or sixteen years old, with an indistinguishable androgynous beauty. The young prince of Prince Yong's Mansion was born noble, and it is really unimaginable that in the not-too-distant future, he will become so violent and bloodthirsty that his name can stop a child from crying at night.
But this had nothing to do with him, Shen Qiaochen lowered his head pretending to be stunned. In both past and present lives, I never wanted to have anything to do with this "god of murder."
But the fate between people is really wonderful, and the people you should meet will eventually meet.
…
Xiao Jue's appearance immediately attracted the admiration of many people, and the official ladies having tea in the surrounding restaurants secretly opened the windows and cast admiring glances.
Shen Qiao mingled in the crowd and did not attract the attention of others, but who was Xiao Jue? Prince Xiao had been riding horses in the streets since he was a child, and he had broken the hearts of everyone. In the blink of an eye, he looked in Shen Qiaochen's direction and saw only a petite figure wearing a curtain hat.
This figure seemed somewhat familiar.
"Shen Si?" he said lazily, the young man's clear voice was slightly low, as if he hadn't woken up.
Shen Qiaochen raised his head suddenly and lamented that it was unfortunate that he went out today. Why did this person notice him? On his face, he showed a cute smile to Xiao Jue, regardless of whether the other party could see him if he was wearing a curtain hat.
"I've met the young prince." Shen Qiao bowed politely and said nothing else.
After getting up, he saw Xiao Jue still staring at him and not moving, as if he had no intention of leaving.
Shen Qiaochen's heart skipped a beat, "Is there anything else, young prince?"
I saw this beautiful young man raised his eyebrows, then put on a nasty smile and said word by word: "You are blocking my way again."
Shen Qiao glanced at the crowd watching the excitement around him, turned his head stiffly, took a deep breath, and then walked aside with Zi Fu and Yun Ling who were dumbfounded.
Xiao Jue said nothing, his eyes faintly glanced at Shen Qiaochen, who had his head lowered, and then rode away.
When everyone saw this, they dispersed in all directions. In an instant, only Shen Qiao and Chen were left in place.
Xu Shi was amazed at Xiao Jue's celestial appearance, and it was only then that Yun Ling and his wife finally came to their senses.
"Girl, who was that person just now? He was so rude. Let's tell the young master later..."
"That person's identity, I'm afraid your young master won't be able to see enough when he comes in front of him."
"Could it be that he is a relative of the emperor?" Yunling asked bluntly.
"He is Xiao Jue of Prince Yong's Palace."
…
"Sister, are you okay?"
With such a loud noise, Shen Qiaoran and others upstairs naturally heard it. Everyone in the capital knew how domineering Xiao Jue was, so Shen Qiaoran was naturally worried that his sister would be hit by him, so Shen Qiaochen turned around and saw Shen Qiaoran walking towards him with a worried expression.
"I'm fine. Did Third Brother meet some friends? Then we might as well go with them. I happened to be strolling around. They are all jewelry shops that girls like, so Third Brother doesn't have to go."
After finishing speaking clearly and neatly, Shen Qiaochen turned around and left with the others. Shen Qiaoran opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything. He just moved his fingers slightly. When he saw the guards hiding in the dark following him, he went back to Zui Jiangyue.
As expected, Shen Qiaochen did not go far, but took people to look around the surrounding shops. When they returned to the entrance of the alley next to Zui Jiangyue, everyone's hands were full of things.
Shen Qiaochen inadvertently looked up and saw someone sitting by the window on the second floor where Shen Qiaoran and the others were, looking at him with a half-smile.
The man was wearing a bright red brocade robe, holding his head with one hand. When he saw Shen Qiaochen noticing him, the other hand holding a paper fan shook it at Shen Qiaochen. He looked like a dandy.
Shen Qiaochen narrowed his eyes, then turned around and entered the alley as if he didn't see him.
Jiang Fengmian was stunned for a moment, and then he raised his forehead helplessly. Was he being regarded as a human trafficker?
Shen Qiaochen walked leisurely in the alley until he came to an inconspicuous small door and stopped.
Yunling and Zifu looked at each other. But still didn't say much.
Seeing this, Shen Qiaochen rolled his eyes with satisfaction and raised his hand to knock on the door. After a while, someone opened the door from inside and said, "It's not time to deliver food yet..."
But he saw three little girls standing at the door. One of them was gorgeously dressed and had an extraordinary bearing. He could tell at a glance that she was from a wealthy family, so he smiled and said, "This guest, please go to the main entrance if you want to eat."
It turns out that this is Zui Jiangyue's back door.
Shen Qiaochen said, "I want to see your shopkeeper to make a deal."
The man paused and said patiently: "Little girl, this is not a place for fun. You'd better leave quickly."
Shen Qiaochen in front of him tilted his head and said with a smile: "Uncle, please tell your shopkeeper that I can solve his current problem."
…
Shen Qiaochen sat in a chair, playing with the tea cup in his hand, looking at the Blue Crane Porcelain Nine-Turn Cauldron not far away, smelling the faint fragrance of herbs in the air, and curled up the corners of his mouth.
Footsteps were heard in the distance, "I'm late for coming down, I hope you'll forgive me."
Shen Qiaochen looked up and saw a middle-aged man who was still in his prime and still described himself as handsome and handsome, hurriedly approaching.
When he saw Shen Qiaochen sitting on the seat, he was stunned. Old Zhao said she was a woman, but the person in front of him was clearly a little girl in her twenties.
He hesitated a little and said: "Ji Qingyuan is the shopkeeper of Zui Jiangyue, I don't know girl..."
Shen Qiao said: "Everyone knows that there are three unique things in this capital. The most beautiful clothes are the 'Wan Qingsi'; the most beautiful people are the 'Nan Sheng Meng'; and the most beautiful taste is the 'Drunken River Moon' Yes. But today, it seems otherwise."
Ji Qingyuan was not angry. Shen Qiaochen continued: "I heard that a new Jinzhuxuan opened in the capital recently. It was a sensation on the day it opened. After that, customers came in like clouds every day, making money every day. I guess it won't be long before, One of these three musts is about to change."
Seeing Ji Qingyuan's brows twitching slightly, Shen Qiaochen slowly added the last sentence: "It is said that Jinzhuxuan seems to have some relationship with someone in the imperial city."
After saying that, he raised his hand and stroked the three-leaf begonia on his temples.
Ji Qingyuan fell into silence, and Shen Qiaochen was not in a hurry, lowering his head and counting the petals on her skirt.
When he counted to fifteen pieces, Ji Qingyuan seemed to have made up his mind.
"As the girl said, since Jinzhuxuan opened, my drunkenness has become worse day by day. I thought that competition in the business world is normal, but I didn't expect that someone came to the store to make trouble a few days ago, saying that it was us. I was so sick in the store. Then someone came to the door and said, in plain words, that I wanted to marry Zui Jiangyue. After I refused, they started making trouble every day. If this continues, Zui Jiangyue will have no choice but to close the door. .”
Ji Qingyuan sighed and continued: "It doesn't matter if the store loses money, but Zui Jiangyue has been running the business for many years under my ancestors. If it fell into my hands for this reason, I would really be ashamed to see my ancestors. "
Shen Qiao said calmly, "In that case, can I do some business with Shopkeeper Ji?"
Ji Qingyuan looked at the little girl in front of him quietly, "I don't know, girl, what do you want?"
"I heard that your husband has included a medical book called "The Jade Key to Chonglou". Can you lend me a copy? As a reward, I can help you solve the Jinzhuxuan matter."
"If you, sir, can trust me, I can sign a contract with you. I will invest my capital into the shares, and you can still stay in Zui Jiangyue as the shopkeeper, and everything will continue to operate as usual. In addition, for my other shops in the capital, I need your help, sir." two."
"If you agree, sir, I can ask someone to do it immediately, and the transfer can be done today."
Ji Qingyuan joked: "Transfer of ownership today? What if I tell you later that I don't have the medical book?"
"My little girl can trust Mr. Zizhan's character." Shen Qiaochen smiled and looked very cute. It looked like a little girl of twelve or thirteen years old.
Ji Qingyuan was stunned for a moment when he heard the word "Zizhan". He had not heard this name for a long time. Then he shook his head and sighed, I wonder which family could raise such a bold and smart girl.
"What's the girl's plan next? You also said that the person behind Jinzhuxuan is not an ordinary person." As if he finally breathed a sigh of relief, Ji Qingyuan was no longer restrained.
Shen Qiao was silently counting the medicinal ingredients in the tea. Hearing this, he raised his head and raised the corners of his lips.
"I forgot to mention that I am Shen Qiaochen, the legitimate daughter of General Jianwei."
