As soon as Zhou Jingxuan put the red cloak on Jiang Si, he received the news and immediately entered the palace.

Jiang Si's eyebrows skipped a beat, feeling that something bad had happened.

In the afternoon, Zhou Jingxuan still didn't come back, so Jiang Si took Chunzhu out for a walk.

The Spring Festival is approaching, and the atmosphere in the entire capital is completely different.

The buyers and sellers all had smiles on their faces.

But Jiang Si felt a little uneasy in her heart. She was so anxious to call Zhou Jingxuan away. There must be something urgent.

I hope this year can pass safely.

Jiang Si found a restaurant with a great view. While having tea, she could see the scenery outside the capital at a glance.

The initially anxious heart became much calmer.

Chunzhu was sitting on one side waiting on her, and the tea was exquisite and very comfortable.

Jiang Si was enjoying this moment of relaxation. Suddenly a voice sounded from downstairs, interrupting Jiang Si's relaxation.

She looked over following the sound and saw a group of people surrounding a man and a woman.

The man and woman had their backs to her, and their faces could not be seen clearly.

Surrounding them was a middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears. His face was full of vulgarity: "Since ancient times, debts have been repaid, and people have been killed to pay for their lives. You broke my treasure, so you must compensate."

The man looked at the woman obscenely, rubbed his hands with a proud look on his face: "This bowl was handed down from my ancestors and is worth thousands of gold. If you don't pay compensation today, you will never get out of here!"

Jiang Si had very good eyesight and could see the pile of broken porcelain pieces on the ground at a glance.

Not to mention a thousand pieces of gold, it is more than an ingot of silver, or at most a few copper plates.

But this person said it was a treasure worth thousands of gold.

Jiang Si immediately understood that this was a deliberate attempt to blackmail someone.

Jiang Si is not a bad person, so she can just watch such things from a distance and is not willing to interfere.

There are many more powerful people in the capital, and all kinds of unfair things happen every day. If she interferes in everything, she will be exhausted.

What's more important is that this world is inherently unfair.

Jiang Si watched indifferently, but Chunzhu cursed angrily at the side: "This person is really nothing!"

"Seeing that this man and woman are wearing simple clothes, they must be honest people. He is deliberately bullying honest people."

This is indeed the case, Zhang Dayi did it on purpose.

Because he has fallen in love with this little lady, who is as beautiful as a flower and is much prettier than the ones at home.

Looking at the clothes, they didn't look like they belonged to a wealthy family. He thought that it wouldn't be nice to just use some tricks to get people into his house.

Zhang Dayi raised his eyebrows: "I see that you don't have the money to compensate me, so let's use someone to pay off the debt."

"Little lady, I see that you look good, so I'll use you to pay for it. This bowl in my family was handed down from my ancestors, but it's worth a lot of money. I'm not the kind of person who makes things difficult for others, so let's just forget about it."

Yinyin's face was livid. If Aniang hadn't said before she came out that they would never be exposed as being good at Gu, she would have tortured this person to the point where he knelt down and begged for mercy.

Xunli stood in front of Yinyin: "You are dreaming, aren't you just a broken bowl who wants to blackmail us!"

Xunli was very angry. He had long heard that people in the Central Plains were cunning and treacherous, and today it turned out to be so.

He really wanted to release the poisonous insects and bite this man to death.

But before he came out, he was told that there were many capable people in the Central Plains, so he must not cause any trouble.

They were originally out for a trip, and it was time to leave the capital and return to the village today.

But he didn't expect to meet such a rogue person.

Zhang Dayi narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly: "If you don't eat the toast, you will have to drink wine as a penalty. Tie them to my house!"

Jiang Si took one look and was about to look away when she saw the man in plain clothes turning around.

He snapped: "Try it!"

Jiang Si's eyes flashed and she stood up. This was actually an acquaintance. Why did they leave the village?

Jiang Si got up and went downstairs. Chunzhu's eyes lit up, and she knew that the princess was a kind-hearted person.

If Jiang Si knew what Chunzhu was thinking, she would definitely scream that she was wronged. She just saw an acquaintance.

Jiang Si strode down and said sternly: "Let's see who dares to touch them!"

Although Jiang Si is no longer what she used to be and not many people know her, there are always a few people in the capital who have never met Jiang Si.

Unfortunately, Zhang Dayi is one of them.

He looked over looking for the voice, his eyes lit up instantly, and he secretly sighed in his heart, whose wife was this, how could she be so beautiful.

Although he was a bastard, he still had some discernment. When he saw that the fabric on Jiang Si's body was valuable, he knew that Jiang Si was special.

His voice was somewhat flattering: "What does this lady want?"

When Jiang Si came out, Xunli couldn't hide the joy in his eyes, and so could Yinyin.

They didn't expect to meet Jiang Si here.

Jiang Si nodded towards Xunli and Yinyin, then turned to look at Zhang Dayi: "I heard you said the broken bowl on the ground is worth a thousand gold?"

Zhang Dayi had a somewhat embarrassed look on his face. His tricks were just to bully the powerless poor people.

The lady in front of her obviously came from a distinguished family, but her temperament was completely different from that of a young lady from an ordinary family.

He has lived in the capital for so many years, so he naturally knows who can and cannot be offended.

Zhang Dayi chuckled: "This is passed down from our ancestors. Although it is not valuable, it is of great significance, so it is worth thousands of gold."

Jiang Si glanced at Zhang Dayi: "How much is it worth now?"

Zhang Dayi said quickly: "It's a worthless gadget."

Jiang Si turned to look at Xunli and Yinyin: "Let's go."

After Jiang Si left, Zhang Dayi looked at Jiang Si and reached out to touch the sweat on his head. He had never seen such momentum before.

He quickly ordered his men to investigate in case there was any retaliation in the future.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, someone in the crowd spoke: "It's a good thing you didn't offend that woman just now. She is the eighth prince's princess."

"She is still the sister of our number one businesswoman in the capital. No, she should be said to be the quasi-princess now."

"Jiang Si, the second young lady of the Jiang family."

"If you make her unhappy, you will suffer the consequences!"

Zhang Dayi's face instantly turned pale, he clasped his hands together and kept chanting: "Bodhisattva bless, Bodhisattva bless."

I hope that the princess will not argue with villains like him, otherwise the Zhang family may stop here.

Jiang Si didn't take Zhang Dayi to heart at all.

Instead, he took Xunli and Yinyin back to the palace.

Yinyin looked at the grand door and was stunned for a moment. She had already given up her original thoughts.

Some ravines cannot be crossed in a lifetime.

Someone like Zhou Jingxuan is best paired with Jiang Si.

She was relieved.

She walked into the palace with easy steps, turned her head and glanced at Xunli: "Xunli, come in quickly."
