Rebirth: Phoenix Palm Nine Heavens

Chapter 160 Enemies meet on a narrow road

The next morning, Xiao Jinse got the news that envoys from the Northern Desert would arrive in Jingning City soon, and the emperor was going to prepare a palace banquet to entertain him. Xiao Jinse was not only a courtier but also an official family member, so there was no reason to shirk at this time.

King Su had already sent someone to deliver the clothes and jewelry for the banquet, which saved Xiao Jinse a lot of trouble.

After breakfast, Pei Xiyue came to the general's mansion.

"Sese, I heard that a new batch of customized jewelry from Zhenbao Pavilion has arrived. Please accompany me to take a look."

"You came just in time, I'm going out too." Xiao Jinse said with a smile.

After finishing speaking, Xiao Jinse played with Pei Xiyue's arm, and the two of them left the general's mansion together.

"Sese, I heard from my father today that Duke Chen Guogong visited you in the court yesterday and did not respect the imperial edict and left the capital privately."

"Oh? What happened next?" Xiao Jinse asked curiously.

"Later, my father yelled and cursed, saying that he was a wolf and his ambition was obvious. He also said that you were secretly escorted by the emperor's order. Only people like Chen Guogong never focused on the victims, but on framing Zhongliang. Don't worry. Chen Guogong was so angry that he almost vomited blood."

"Uncle Pei is really angry. By the way, what's going on with the second wife and the old godly woman?" Xiao Jinse said lightly.

After all, the second room and Mrs. Pei would not really let Marquis Wu Ling move out based on their peeing habits. They still wanted to take advantage of it.

"Don't mention it. A few days after we moved, my second uncle sent my grandmother to my doorstep and told her that my adoptive mother was the eldest son. He was too busy with business and had no time to serve her."

"Bah, I've never seen him serve well. Besides, there are maids and nuns in the house, so why does he need to do it himself?" Xiao Jinse spat.

"But people have been sent to our door, so we can't just kick them out. My father arranged for my grandmother to live in Fu Luyuan." Pei Xiyue sighed.

"Fu Luyuan? I don't remember the house having such a tacky name."

"My grandmother changed it. She said Shou'antang sounds like a nunnery, not as good as Fulu."

"I really fell into the eyes of money. She only has two of them."

"There is nothing missing. Grandma said that with the new people and the new atmosphere, she changed the names of the two maids in her yard to Axi and Acai.

Hearing this, Xiao Jinse was not too surprised. Xiao Jinse had no good impressions of the second wife of the Pei family and the old godly woman who ruled everything.

In the last life, if the old pious woman hadn't caused trouble, Xiyue wouldn't have married such a trash and ruined her life.

While talking, the two of them had already arrived at the entrance of Zhenbao Pavilion. Xiao Jinse and Pei Xiyue walked in and were dazzled by the latest styles of jewelry placed on the counter.

"Sese, look at this jasper phoenix hairpin, this plum blossom glazed hairpin, the eight-treasure emerald chrysanthemum hairpin, and the eight-treasure gold silk hairpin with pearls. Oh my, I'm so confused. Which one is better?" Pei Xiyue looked at the dazzling array of jewelry, her eyes shining.

"These hairpins will definitely look good on you, it just depends on which one you like more." Xiao Jinse said lightly.

It's not that she doesn't want to help Pei Xiyue choose, it's just that she has little achievements in jewelry.

"Aren't I undecided?"

"That means you don't like these the most. Boss, bring out more new styles." Xiao Jinse said loudly.

"Okay, girls, wait a moment." The shopkeeper waved, and the waiter entered the backyard and took out several trays in a short time.

"Two girls, these are also the top products of our shop. Please see, these are the hollow orchid bead hairpin, the gold bird hairpin, the sapphire emerald peacock hanging hairpin, the white jade inlaid with red coral beads double-knot Ruyi hairpin, and the gold-plated emerald hairpin. I don't know. Are there any girls here who are satisfied? There are some here."

The shopkeeper brought out several more trays, "These are the Pearl Jasper Bu Yao, the Gold Silk Inlaid Ruby Double Luan Dot Cui Bu Yao, the Red Jade Drop Bead Crested Gold Bu Yao, the Gold Begonia Beads Flower Bu Yao, the Peacock Silver Bu Yao and the Butterfly Silver step shakes,"

Pei Xiyue looked at these and didn't know which one to choose. Xiao Jinse glanced at the jewelry, picked up a hollow orchid hairpin and a pearl jasper hairpin and inserted it into Pei Xiyue's head.

"Well, these two are very good. I will decide which one to wear based on my clothes when the time comes." Xiao Jinse said calmly.

"The girl has good taste. These two are made by our top masters here. The Northern Desert Envoys are coming to South Vietnam. There are a lot of people coming to our store to order jewelry these days. If the girl likes it, just We have to decide quickly." The shopkeeper said with a smile.

Pei Xiyue looked at herself in the bronze mirror and was very satisfied with the two hairpins. "Shopkeeper, I want these two. I will send someone to Wulinghou Mansion later."

"Hmph, it's really a narrow road. You always run into people you don't want to see when you go shopping. Boss, why do you let everyone in your Zhenbao Pavilion?" Lin Yan'er walked in and said.
