Shen Yangui put down the scroll and said happily: "The plum appreciation banquet is not going to be held?"

Lu'e was stunned for a moment: How could the princess have such strange thoughts?

"No."

News came from the eldest princess's palace that the concubine Feng had a personal relationship with her when she was in the pavilion. She wanted to invite Feng Wanyan to come with her to the plum blossom appreciation banquet.

After Lu'e finished speaking, she asked: "Feng's wife should not be allowed to go to the meeting with the principal wife due to emotions and reasons. Does the princess want to take her with her?"

Shen Yan picked up the book again and said nonchalantly: "Take it with you, the eldest princess has spoken."

"Look, slave, the prince is here to stand with the princess. If the princess is unwilling to take care of her, if Her Royal Highness the eldest princess asks, I am afraid she will be reprimanded by the prince."

This was something the eldest princess did that was against the rules, but when she handed the invitation to the Plum Appreciation Banquet to the Prince Regent, she handed these words to herself, clearly testing herself.

In other words, she has not yet accepted herself as a princess.

"It doesn't matter." Shen Yangui can make two more weddings for the prince. "I can just go to Jinxiufang and buy her two outfits."

"Huh?" Lu'e was surprised, "Buying clothes for the concubine?"

"Well." Shen Yangui put down the book, "Doesn't this make me, the princess, very virtuous? - Qingshuang, bring me some clothes."

Shen Yangui had long been tired of the intrigues between the women in the back house. Feng Wanyan was someone who couldn't make waves. She had more important things to do.

Lu'e followed Shen Yan back and said, "Why do you think, slave, that the prince doesn't like you to be so virtuous?"

Qingshuang brought some clothes and said, "No, the prince said that he likes whatever our princess looks like."

Would the prince say this?

Green Calyx expressed disbelief.

?Jinxiufang.

As soon as the shopkeeper's wife Xu Niang saw the carriage that day, she came in person and led her directly to the third floor. After sending the servants away, Xu Niang knelt at her feet.

"Yesterday, the little man was too blind to see Mount Tai. He didn't know that the people coming were the regent and the princess. I was rude. I hope the princess will forgive me and spare my life."

"What is Shopkeeper Du talking about?"

"With Ruan Xiao's temperament, he would be thrown down from the building, lose his face, hurt his body, and kill my husband no matter what. But last night, the Hussar General's mansion was surrounded instead. Looking at the world, except for the regent, No one can do that.”

Shen Yangui smiled and said, "Maybe we are relatives of the regent."

Madam Xu fell to the ground and said, "The princess is joking. Who doesn't know that the regent has six relatives and is selfless?"

Qingshuang caught Shen Yangui's look and helped Xu Niang up, "Shopkeeper Du, you're welcome. Our master is not here to plead guilty today, but to buy something."

"Don't dare, don't dare. What does the princess like? It's a blessing. Just take it. How can a villain dare to collect money?"

"Qingshuang." Shen Yan returned.

Qingshuang took out a stack of silver notes from her sleeve and handed it to Xu Niang, "My master is interested in the two Yuehua Brocades from yesterday. I'd like to ask Shopkeeper Du to arrange for the best master in the workshop to buy two outfits for the festival. Time to wear.”

"I will definitely do it. I will try my best to get it done."

Xu Niang shielded her eyes and saw that the amount of money was far more than the amount of Yuehua Brocade. Several thoughts suddenly popped into her mind:

Too much? Mistaken? Reward? threaten?

She rolled her eyes as she watched Shen Yangui stir the tea foam with the tea lid.

"We have five shopkeepers in Jinxiufang..."

Shen Yangui took a sip of tea and said, "There will only be you in the future."

Madam Xu raised her eyebrows slightly and immediately changed her words: "Although there are five shopkeepers, they are all private businessmen with low status and it is difficult to gain a foothold in the capital. If we can get the blessing of the princess, it will be a blessing for the small shop and a blessing for the villain."

Shen Yangui put down the tea cup and expressed his feelings: "Shopkeeper Du has good ears and eyes, and has exquisite eyes. It is really aggrieved to be the shopkeeper of only one shop."

Madam Xu looked at Shen Yangui with burning eyes, and after a long while she said, "What does the princess mean by this?"

Shen Yangui said calmly: "It's just as you thought."

Ming Ren did not say anything secret, but Xu Niang's eyes were glaring, "Princess, are you serious?" She stuttered a little because of her excitement, "I and people outside say that I am stubborn, wanton, and ignorant of etiquette."

The case files that Mo Chengying brought over were all kept by the yamen, telling what was done on what year, month and day.

As for this anecdote, Shen Yangui had already heard about it.

It is not easy for a woman to do business. If she achieves even a little success, a lot of people will jump out and say that it is because her mother's family is good, her husband's family is good, or she even found a good match. Anyway, it is not because she is good.

When talking about Du Qingxu, it means that she married well, died two husband-in-laws in a row, gained a lot of wealth, and because of her weak body, she slept with a lot of good friends, so she got such a big fortune.

But in fact, her two marriages were just like Shen Yangui's plan to marry Wen Chuanbai. She just needed a man's name so that she could work hard.

She is capable. With her own strength, she has been able to open the largest cloth shop in the capital from a young embroidery girl.

Three of the other four shopkeepers were members of her second husband's family. They did not contribute any effort and were desperate to get a share of the pie. Otherwise, they would die.

For the sake of money these years, they finally didn't cause any trouble.

Jinxiufang is already the limit of what women can do nowadays, not Du Qingxu's limit.

Shen Yangui needs money. Instead of saving dead money, it is better to live money and let money make money.

Du Qingxu needs power, and the status of businessmen is low. Any headhunter in the capital can come to Jinxiufang to fight against the autumn wind.

Shen Yangui joined forces with her. Although it was suspected of picking the fruit, she did not suffer any loss.

Hearing Xu Niang's words, Shen Yangui looked at her: "Is that you?"

"I..." Xu Niang gritted her teeth and said, "Of course I'm not."

"I believe you."

Xu Niang knelt down again, "It is not easy for women to do business. Xu Niang considers herself ambitious. If the princess is willing to show her favor, the slave family will definitely live up to her appreciation."

Shen Yangui stretched out his hand towards her, "If there are new goods in Jinxiu Square in the future, send someone to the palace to find Qingshuang."

Xu Niang looked up at Shen Yangui and nodded solemnly: "Okay!"

"By the way, the regent came to Jinxiufang yesterday..."

Madam Xu said with a serious face: "I've never been here before."

Shen Yangui nodded, "That Mr. Ruan was thrown from upstairs..."

Xu Niang immediately clarified: "It's nothing. The servants from Jinxiufang accidentally fell down while carrying the goods."

Very good, Shen Yangui really saw the right person.

She randomly chose two sets of clothes and came out of Jinxiu Square. There were only a few pedestrians on the street. When the carriage came, she had no intention of raising her head.

The sky in winter seems to be particularly high and far away, and the cold blue is as clean and clear as if washed by water, with a deep chill.

A small sparrow flew up to the eaves, chirping in the cold winter.

The breeze blew through the alarm bell, and the little sparrow flapped its wings and flew higher. In the light refracted by the ice, it was coated with a layer of rainbow clothing.

She is still herself, but with a change of clothes and the identity of Princess Regent, everything is different.

No wonder everyone is obsessed with power.

The sound of horse hooves trampling on the stone road makes a cold clicking sound, but the street is very lively on the winter solstice.

"You shouldn't take this road to the Plum Garden, right?"

Shen Yangui remembered that night inexplicably and looked at Mo Chengying suspiciously, "Husband, it's daytime."
