Zhao Huayin left Yunshangfang and went straight to the County Lord's Mansion.

"Wow~"

Princess Jiayi exclaimed in surprise.

"Sister Zhao, you are not the Weaver Girl who has descended to earth, your craftsmanship is really impeccable, this is exactly the dress of my dreams!"

Zhao Huayin responded with a shy smile

Princess Jiayi picked up the skirt and looked at it carefully. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it.

"You've done a great job here. It's even more perfect than I had imagined. The flowers are almost alive."

Princess Jiayi touched the embroidery on the hem of her skirt and sighed.

"As long as the county lady is satisfied, there are still two days before the garden party. If there are any changes to be made, there is still time."

Princess Jiayi waved her hand.

“No, no, it’s fine the way it is now, there’s no need to change it at all.

Hancui, bring me the reward for Sister Zhao!"

Upon hearing this, the maidservant beside Princess Jiayi brought a box and opened it for Zhao Huayin to see. There were several silver bills inside.

"Please accept it, Miss Zhao."

Zhao Huayin only took a quick look and thought that there were probably several thousand taels of silver in the box. He bowed slightly and said,

"The county lady is so kind to me. This amount of silver is too much."

Zhao Huayin wants to do long-term business, so it might not be appropriate to charge so much this time.

Besides, Zhao Huayin had selfish motives when she offered to make a skirt for Princess Jiayi.

He wanted Princess Jiayi to appear at the flower-viewing party wearing clothes from Yunshangfang so that the name of Yunshangfang could spread.

How can I accept money from Princess Jiayi now?

"Sister Zhao, you don't have to refuse. Your craftsmanship is worth the price. Just accept it. When the time comes, I will definitely wear the new clothes that Sister Zhao made for me to outshine all the others."

Princess Jiayi has a cheerful and generous personality, and is lively and smart. Zhao Huayin really likes this girl.

He no longer refused.

"In that case, I will accept the county lady's kindness. If the county lady has any dresses she likes in the future, just tell me and I will make them for her."

"That's great. When Sister Zhao's Yunshangfang becomes famous in the capital, I will still be Sister Zhao's VIP guest."

"Of course, the county lady will always be the VIP guest of Yunshangfang."

The two of them had a very pleasant conversation, and Zhao Huayin sat for a while before returning to the Shangshu Mansion.

"Dianxue, go to Yunshangfang and inform brother, and tell him that Princess Jiayi's dress has been handed over, so brother can rest assured."

"Yes, young lady, I will go right away. Sister Qingshuang has returned and seems to have brought back some news. Young lady, go and take a look."

After Dianxue finished speaking, she took the order and went out. Zhao Huayin went in to see Qingshuang.

"girl!"

Qingshuang bowed to Zhao Huayin.

"Don't worry about these empty formalities. Just tell me if there is any progress."

"To answer your question, Feiying did get some information. The old woman you saw before was indeed a sorcerer from Jiaozhi.

But she is not a bad person. She came to the capital of Wei to bring back one of her disciples. In her words, she is cleaning up the family. "

Zhao Huayin frowned.

"what happened?"

"It turned out that the old woman's disciple came to the capital to cast a spell on someone. The old woman didn't want to be associated with the rich and powerful, especially the rich and powerful from a foreign country. She was afraid that it would bring disaster to herself, so she came all the way here to take the person back."

"Go on, how could she know what her apprentice was doing here, since they were thousands of miles away?"

"It seems to be their unique secret method. If there is any connection between the master and the apprentice, the master can sense what the apprentice is doing outside. Feiying also asked about it, but the old woman was unwilling to elaborate, and Feiying did not force her."

"It's right not to use force. We don't know the other party's background, so we can't act rashly."

Zhao Huayin was still confused.

"Then who asked her disciple to come here?"

"Now that's interesting, it's our old acquaintance - His Royal Highness Prince Xuan."

Zhao Huayin's heart skipped a beat when she heard this, and her face suddenly changed.

"What does King Xuan want to do? Is the Fourth Prince in danger?"

"Don't worry, young lady. The old woman said that the traces of her apprentice's black magic were in the capital. The prince is far away in Ganzhou. It's not to deal with the prince."

Only then did Zhao Huayin feel a little more at ease.

Then, as if he had thought of something, his pupils shrank slightly, and he glanced in the direction of the palace.

"King Xuan..."

"The girl guessed right."

Qingshuang nodded slowly.

"According to the old woman herself, her apprentice had already used forbidden techniques and even she herself had suffered the backlash. She had come here to stop the rebellious apprentice.

But I was injured and couldn't find my apprentice, so I could only worry. "

"Have you confirmed that the palace is safe?"

In fact, what Zhao Huayin wanted to ask was whether Emperor Hui was still healthy. If it was really King Xuan who found someone who could perform black magic, and the target was in the palace, Emperor Hui must be King Xuan's target.

But Zhao Huayin couldn't understand. King Xuan had no military power or money. If Emperor Hui met with an accident, the Great Wei would most likely not fall into his hands.

Did he go to so much trouble to take such a risky move just to vent his personal anger?

The situation in the court changed and Yan Qi was not in the capital. Zhao Huayin was at a loss and very worried. He sat down in a daze for a long time.

After sorting out the causes and consequences of the matter, Zhao Huayin finally made up her mind.

"Qingshuang, have you met King Jin?"

Qingshuang was slightly surprised, looked up at Zhao Huayin, and replied respectfully,

"Never."

“Then go and meet him, and tell His Royal Highness Prince Jin what the Eagle has discovered. This matter is too big for me to handle.

Just one thing, please tell His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin to ensure the safety of His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince."

Qingshuang was indeed Yan Qi's capable assistant. He was surprised for only a moment before he suppressed all his emotions.

"Don't worry, young lady. I will go to see His Royal Highness Prince Jin now."

After saying this, he bowed and walked out.

Qingshuang knelt on the ground and explained the whole story clearly, but King Jin did not speak for a long time.

After waiting for a while, King Jin finally spoke.

"What sin have I committed? Why do I have to bear all this? Fourth brother cannot be hurt, so I have to find a way to protect him, but who will protect me?"

King Jin's exaggerated expression almost made Qingshuang unable to hold back.

Seeing Prince Jin like this, Qingshuang felt strange again. Normally, His Royal Highness Prince Jin would not be like this. Only when his own prince was around would His Royal Highness Prince Jin joke with his prince.

Thinking of this, Qingshuang suddenly raised her head and saw Yan Qi, dressed in black, walking out from behind the screen.

"Your Majesty!"

Qingshuang exclaimed.

"Get up, Qingshuang. You and Feiying have done a great job during this period."

After saying this, Yan Qi glanced at King Jin calmly.

"Pretend, keep pretending! Do you want me to let the third daughter of the Jin family take good care of you?"

Upon hearing this, King Jin could not help but shudder.

"Fourth brother, this is you being immoral. How can you repay kindness with hatred?"

Even Qingshuang, who usually does not show her emotions, could not help but purse her lips when she heard this.

The Jin family is the maternal family of the Empress Dowager, and the mother of Miss Jin San was born into a very wealthy family, so she raised Miss Jin San to be extremely wealthy.

Miss Jin San was spoiled at home. She liked Prince Jin very much when she saw him for the first time. After that, every time she saw Prince Jin, she would chase him away.

If there is any stain on the elegant Prince Jin, this Miss Jin San is definitely the first one.

But no one else dared to mention it easily, and only Yan Qi dared to tease King Jin about this matter.

King Jin sat up straight and said seriously,

"Fourth brother, during the time you were away, I took good care of my future sister-in-law. You still treat me like this, it's really too much!"

Yan Qi walked slowly to the side of King Jin and sat down. He glanced at King Jin and told Qing Shuang,

"When you go back, tell her that you have already told His Royal Highness Prince Jin about the matter, and tell her not to worry and just prepare for the flower viewing garden party."

"My lady is very concerned about the prince. Should I tell her that he has returned safely?"

"No need."
