After leaving Li Qingfeng's yard, Li Jing came to a nearby shop selling pens and ink.

"Shopkeeper, do you have a wolf-hair brush?"

Hearing Li Jing's words, the middle-aged shopkeeper wearing a fur hat raised his head and came over with a smile, "Miss, you want to sell a pen?"

"Ah."

"We don't have wolf-hair brushes. How about you look at goat-hair brushes and purple-hair brushes?"

As he said this, he waved to the waiter.

Li Jing stopped him coldly, "No need, I just want a wolf-hair brush, forget it if you don't have one."

After saying that, he turned and walked out.

Seeing Li Jing's firm attitude, the shopkeeper took a few quick steps and stopped her.

Those who can afford the wolf-hair brushes are all generous, but the shopkeeper still doesn't want to give up.

"Miss, not to mention that our company doesn't have it, even in the entire capital, it's probably going to be hard to find one this year."

Li Jing was puzzled and asked him, "Why?"

The shopkeeper explained: "Due to the drought in summer, the number of Wong Tai Sin in the north is extremely small this year, and the same is true for the top-quality sheep-hair brushes and purple-hair brushes."

"Wong Tai Sin?" Li Jing frowned. "Aren't wolf hair brushes made of wolf hair?"

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Of course not, it can only be made with the hair of the Wong Tai Sin tail from the north."

Li Jing frowned, his face becoming more serious.

She couldn't go to the north to catch weasels.

The shopkeeper saw her hesitation and advised her with a smile: "Miss, why don't you take a look at purple-hair brushes and goat-hair brushes? The top-quality ones are just as good as wolf-hair brushes."

Li Jing thought of the wolf-hair brush that was broken into two pieces, and she became more determined in her decision.

She decided to look for it again, and if she couldn't find it, she would use something else as a substitute.

Li Jing spent the entire afternoon riding around the capital looking for wolf-hair brushes. In the end, as the shopkeeper had said, he didn't find a single wolf-hair brush.

Li Jing returned to the palace in the evening.

Su Lingyue asked her to meet Wang Yirong in the evening, so she had to come back and prepare.

Arriving at the hall of Hibiscus Pavilion, Li Jing only saw Xiao Yu sitting beside a chessboard reading a book. There was an unfinished game of chess on the board. There was a stove at his feet, and the hall was as warm as spring.

Seeing Li Jing coming, Xiao Yu put down the book and asked with a puzzled look: "Ah Qing, is there anything wrong?"

Ever since asking Li Jing to protect Su Lingyue, Li Jing seldom looked for him. If there was anything, Xiao Yu would ask someone to look for Li Jing.

Seeing that Su Lingyue was not there, Li Jing stopped and said, "Well, the princess asked me to go find Wang Yirong tonight. I'll go ask her if there's anything I want to say."

Xiao Yu raised the corner of his lips. He had originally planned to let Yan Qing go, but he didn't expect Su Lingyue to have the same idea as him.

"She's in the garden." When saying this, there was obviously a hint of joy in Xiao Yu's tone.

"it is good."

Li Jing was about to turn around and leave when she suddenly thought of something. She stopped and hesitated for a moment before looking at Xiao Yu, "Does the prince have a wolf-hair brush?"

Xiao Yu was puzzled, but still answered her: "There are a few."

Li Jing's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she immediately asked, "Can you sell me one?"

Xiao Yu's gaze stopped on Li Jing. He knew that Li Jing never liked literature.

"What do you want a pen for?" Xiao Yu asked puzzledly.

Li Jing looked away with a slightly unnatural look, "I accidentally broke someone's pen, so I have to compensate him with one. Do you want to sell it?"

Xiao Yu lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then raised his lips and asked, "You said buy, how much silver do you want to buy it?"

Li Jing had never thought about this. She looked at Xiao Yu unhappily for his teasing and said coldly, "No matter how much, just ask Butler Wu to deduct it from my monthly salary until it's enough."

Xiao Yu couldn't help but laugh.

Li Jing's attitude of ignoring everything and taking it for granted has remained the same for many years.

She had only arrived at the village seven years ago. Although she was not very old, she could overwhelm everyone with her aura and make them listen to her.

Xiao Yu suppressed his emotions and said calmly: "Come to my study after breakfast tomorrow."

"Okay." After getting a satisfactory answer, Li Jing turned and left without even looking at Xiao Yu.

Li Jing was still some distance away from the garden when she heard the sound of fighting coming from inside.

At the same time, there were voices of several people talking.

"Second cousin, come on!"

"Miss, don't go any further and let them get hurt. Come on, step back a little."

"Guard Lin's kung fu is really good!"

"Sister Caidie, who is better at martial arts, your brother Yan or Lin Chuan?"

"almost."

"Sister Caidie, have you looked carefully? Mine is obviously better!"

Li Jing walked around the rockery and saw Su Lingyue leading Caidie, Caiyi and Yanqing standing under the willow tree, watching the two people fighting.

The people fighting were Lin Chuan and Jiang Siqi.

Lin Chuan, wearing a green long coat and holding a cold white sword, was seen fighting with Jiang Siqi, who was wearing a blue long coat and holding a black sword.

Rather than a fight, it would be more accurate to say that Lin Chuan was teasing Jiang Siqi.

Jiang Siqi tried his best to stab Lin Chuan, but Lin Chuan was able to take it easily and avoid Jiang Siqi's every move.

Yan Qing heard footsteps, turned around and saw Li Jing walking towards him.

"Sister Aqing!" Yan Qing's eyes lit up instantly, and he turned around and waved at her.

Lin Chuan, who was dealing with Jiang Siqi easily, wanted to turn around and look at Li Jing when he heard that Li Jing was coming.

The two were concentrating on fighting, but Lin Chuan lost his focus, which gave Jiang Siqi an opportunity to take advantage of.

By the time Jiang Siqi reacted, the sword was already pointed at Lin Chuan's arm and could not be retracted.

His sword was the extremely sharp Xuanying Sword. If the sword stabbed him, Lin Chuan's arm would be lost.

Li Jing was quick-witted and quick-handed. She pulled out the silver hairpin on her head and threw it towards Jiang Siqi's sword.

"Ding"

With a crisp sound, the tip of Jiang Siqi's sword shifted, and Jiang Siqi used the force to stop.

Lin Chuan took two steps back and stood firmly on the ground.

Jiang Siqi also staggered to the ground, retracted his sword, and strode to Lin Chuan's side to check on his condition: "Brother Lin, are you injured?"

Lin Chuan looked at Li Jing approaching, then retracted his gaze and shook his head, "It's okay, I was careless."

Hearing him say this, Jiang Siqi hurriedly checked the sword in his heart.

I was hit by something just now, I don’t know if there are any scars.

Yan Qing, Su Lingyue and others also saw Li Jing's actions. When they turned around, Lin Chuan and Jiang Siqi had stopped fighting.

Yan Qing was about to go over to show concern for Lin Chuan, but Su Lingyue grabbed his sleeve and lowered her voice to stop him, "Don't go over there, can't you see that all Lin Chuan has in his eyes is Ah Qing!"

After Su Lingyue said this, Yan Qing also realized why Lin Chuan came into the mansion.

Yan Qing chuckled, "I forgot in a moment of anxiety."

Lin Chuan has been helping Jiang Siqi to investigate the hiding places of the Huns recently, and he hasn't seen Li Jing for a long time. Every time he wants to find her, he is worried about annoying her.

Thinking of what Su Lingyue said, he just buried his head in his work, hoping to help Li Jing get revenge as soon as possible.

Seeing her after such a long time, Lin Chuan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, stood in front of Li Jing, his chest heaving slightly, "Why are you here?"

Li Jing glanced at Su Lingyue who was looking excited, and said calmly, "I'm here to see the princess."

She looked at Lin Chuan again, her expression softened a little: "How are you?"

Hearing Li Jing's concern, Lin Chuan could no longer hide his happiness. He smiled and said, "Fortunately you acted in time. I'm fine. It's just..."

He raised his hand, and in his palm was a bent silver hairpin.

Li Jing has always cherished this hairpin.

Lin Chuan felt extremely guilty and said softly, "Hairpin... I'll find someone to fix it and return it to you!"

Li Jing knew what Lin Chuan was thinking and didn't want to get too entangled with him, so she took the hairpin and said, "No, I'll find someone to fix it myself."

After saying that, he walked towards Su Lingyue who was standing aside watching the show, took her hand and walked back.

Su Lingyue remembered what she had entrusted to Li Jing, and without struggling, she followed Li Jing away.

Looking at Li Jing's leaving back, Lin Chuan stood tall under the bare willow tree with a lonely look on his face.

Yan Qing patted his shoulder and said, "Sister Qing is not an ordinary woman. How about you change your target?"

Hearing Yan Qing say this, the loneliness on Lin Chuan's face disappeared, "I just admire her character that is not bound by love!"

After saying that, he turned and walked towards Jiang Siqi who was still wiping the sword carefully, leaving Yan Qing speechless.

I like her character that is not bound by love!

Isn't this just asking for trouble?
