I made the villain right.

Shi Jin thought that since he was going to ask the original owner about the two people in the Yunshui Room, he had to draw their portraits, so he went back to his room and asked the innkeeper for pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

Fan Hua did not return to his room, but was helping Shi Jin grind ink.

Shi Jin noticed the constant noise outside, so he opened the window and looked out.

I found that opposite the inn was a cloth shop called Jinxiu Cloth Shop, with a constant stream of people coming and going.

After Fan Hua had ground the ink, he saw Shi Jin standing at the window watching the situation downstairs, so he shouted.

"Mianmian, it's done."

After hearing the voice, Shi Jin walked over and sat down beside him, without moving his pen, trying hard to recall the appearance of the guy in his mind.

Seeing that she had not started writing yet, Fan Hua asked, "Is it difficult to start writing?"

"I have to think about it, so that the drawing doesn't look like the real thing." After saying this, she began to write quickly, sketching a portrait on the white paper.

In a short while, she had already sketched out the man's appearance.

When Fan Hua saw that face, his face instantly turned dark.

What is she doing? Not only is she obsessed with him, but she is also painting a portrait of him. Does she want to look at it every day?

Doesn't she always praise his handsomeness?

Why am I always thinking about others today?

Has his face lost its charm?

No, it was probably because he had been wearing a human skin mask these days, which made her ignore her own face for a while.

He had to bring her soul back.

He tore off the human skin mask, revealing his impeccable beauty.

Shi Jin was painting seriously, not noticing that the person next to him was daydreaming.

He quickly snatched the pen from her hand, placed it on the pen pile, and then lifted her chin so that she looked directly at his face.

She was confused by his sudden action. She blinked and looked at his handsome face so close to her. Her heart beat faster.

What is he doing? Seduce me?

The next second, he let go of her chin, leaned close to her ear, and said in a low, pleasant, and extremely seductive voice: "Am I not more beautiful than him? Why are you drawing him? Draw me..."

When Shi Jin heard this, she knew that he had misunderstood, and she couldn't help but smile when she saw him seducing her.

Seeing her suddenly laugh, Fan Hua showed a trace of embarrassment and confusion on his face. He kept a fist distance from her and looked at her straight in the eye: "What are you laughing at?"

Shi Jin raised his head and kissed him on the cheek, then said with a smile: "Silly boy, didn't I suspect that they were from Qianshuang Pavilion? So I wanted to show their portraits to people to identify their identities."

When Fan Hua heard this, he realized that he had misunderstood. He looked embarrassed and coughed twice to ease the embarrassment. "Oh, so that's it."

His eyes turned, and he seemed to grasp the key point of her words, so he asked: "Who do you want to find to identify it?"

Shi Jin said mysteriously: "An old friend." She picked up her pen again and started painting, "I want to concentrate on painting."

Seeing that she was painting with great concentration, Fan Hua sat quietly by her side and watched her silently, his eyes becoming more and more profound.

At this moment, at the Jinxiu Cloth Shop outside the Yunlai Inn.

A noble lady dressed in gorgeous crimson and purple clothes walked into the store. She looked to be in her forties or fifties, followed by three maids. She walked with the demeanor of a lady from a noble family and looked quite wealthy.

When the shop assistant saw her coming, he immediately ran into a private room and reported: "Boss, the concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion has come to our shop. What are you going to do?"

The concubine of the prime minister's mansion is Shen Xi, the illegitimate daughter of the Shen family. The Shen family has been engaged in business for four generations and is financially strong and wealthy. Qin Yixian married her because of their financial strength, but she has been childless for many years and Qin Yixian doesn't like her very much.

Qin Yixian also has a legal wife, Yang Ying, the legitimate daughter of the Yang family. Her father was the late emperor's tutor. It is said that Yang Ying's favorite person back then was Prince Jing'an, but because she lost her virginity to Qin Yixian in an accident, she had to marry him.

Yang Ying gave birth to two children for him, a daughter and a son, but his son died of illness when he was three years old. Yang Ying became depressed and died soon after.

After the death of his wife, Shen became the only mistress of the mansion. Later, Qin Yixian also took in several concubines, but none of them were able to bear children. Now he is old, but still has no son.

Chen Mengyao was keeping accounts and paused when she heard this.

Li Muci came to the mansion that day just to ask her for help in venting his anger and putting pressure on Qin Yixian, and told her not to sell any cloth to anyone in Qin Xiangfu.

She has always been protective of her friends, so naturally she would help him.

Chen Mengyao raised her head and said, "Keep a close eye on her. Don't buy any cloth for her. If anyone lets her buy the cloth, he won't have to work for me anymore."

"Yes"

After the waiter came out, he conveyed the boss's orders to the shopkeeper.

After the shopkeeper understood what was going on, he asked the waiter to greet other customers while he kept an eye on Shen.

Shen looked at the cloths on the shelf one by one, her eyes stopped on a piece of rouge-colored cloth, her eyes lit up, and then she reached out and touched it.

"This fabric has a nice color and is comfortable"

A maidservant behind her was very observant. Seeing that her master liked it, she didn't want to flatter her: "This color looks good to me. If Madam uses it to make clothes, it will definitely look very nice when she wears it."

Hearing this, Shen

Shen smiled slightly, and then said, "Then let's take this one."

The girl saw that her master had no servants around her, so she shouted, "Call your shopkeeper, my wife wants this piece of cloth."

The shopkeeper saw this and responded: "I'm here."

He walked up to her and asked with a smile on his face, "Madam, do you want to buy that piece of cloth?"

"This one," she said, pointing at the scarlet cloth.

The shopkeeper's eyes turned and he said apologetically, "Sorry, ma'am, this piece of cloth has just been sold out. Please look for something else."

Shen felt a little sorry when she heard this. Thinking that the cloth had been sold out, they still put it on display. She said with some dissatisfaction: "Since it's sold out, don't put it on display."

Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper immediately asked a clerk to take the cloth away, explaining, "Yes, it must be that the clerk in the store forgot to take it away."

Shen took a step to the side and saw another brown cloth that was also good, so she said, "I'll take this one. Wrap it for me."

"Sorry, this is the last piece left. I just sold it to Mrs. Feng. I plan to send it to her later."

Shen was a little angry when she heard this. She didn't believe it could be such a coincidence, so she casually pointed to the other two pieces of cloth next to her.

“I want both this and that.”

"It's really unfortunate that these two pieces of cloth were sold to the wife of the Yan family."

Shen Shi heard this and realized that something was wrong, so she said in a tough manner: "I will pay three times the price, you sell both pieces of cloth to me."

The shopkeeper looked embarrassed, "I'm afraid this...is not appropriate."

Seeing him repeatedly evading her, Shen was instantly furious and yelled, "Such a big cloth shop, but you don't even have a few pieces of cloth. Who would believe that? I think you are deliberately not wanting to sell it to me. Call your boss out!"

Shen's shouting also attracted the attention of other customers in the store.

After hearing the noise, Chen in the room could no longer sit still, so she immediately got up and went out.

She passed by the crowd, walked in front of Shen, looked at her calmly and said, "I am the person in charge. Madam, do you have anything to say?" Her tone was a little cold.

"Even if we are opening a business, why are you, the shopkeeper, unwilling to sell the cloth to me? Can't you give me an explanation?"

Chen knew it very well, but she still had to put on a show in front of others. She turned her gaze to the shopkeeper beside her and asked, "What's going on? Tell me."

"Boss, the pieces of cloth that this lady liked are all sold out, but she refused to believe it and wanted to buy the cloth that Mrs. Feng had reserved at a high price. I think that business people should be trustworthy, so I rejected her request, which annoyed her."

Upon hearing this, Chen turned her head and looked at Shen, her eyes cold, and said word by word: "The few pieces of cloth you liked have all been sold out and cannot be sold. Do you understand?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Shen was thrust into the spotlight of deliberately finding fault and making unreasonable demands.

Everyone pointed fingers at her instantly.

What made her even more angry was that this person was extremely unfriendly to her, which made her lose face. She was so angry that her face was distorted, and she couldn't say anything to refute. She could only angrily say "You!"

The maidservant beside her couldn't bear to see her master being wronged, so she said, "How dare you! Do you know who my wife is? Let alone selling you these pieces of cloth, even buying your cloth shop is no problem."

Upon hearing this, Chen said sarcastically: "Oh, so you are someone important."

The maid didn't hear it, and thought Chen didn't dare to be rude to them, so she said, "Are you scared?"

As a result, Chen sneered and said in a very tough attitude: "The cloth shop is mine. If I don't want to sell cloth to someone, no one can take a piece of cloth from me. Even if the king of heaven comes, it will be useless."

When Shen heard this, she immediately understood what was going on. This man was deliberately not selling the cloth to her because of her attitude towards her. Even if she talked her mouth off today, it would be useless.

"Okay, if you don't want to sell, then don't buy. You're not the only cloth shop in this huge city of Kyoto. I'll go buy from somewhere else."

Chen did not try to persuade him to stay: "Okay, take care."

After saying this, Shen took her maid and left the cloth shop angrily.

When Shen walked onto the street, she saw two young girls who were dressed beautifully, especially the buns on their heads, which were so special and beautiful that she really envied them.

I saw their conversation as I passed by her.

The girl in green touched her cheek and said happily: "Mrs. Qianyue from Yujun Tower has great skills. After she dressed me up, I suddenly felt a few years younger."

The pink-dressed girl also had a delighted look on her face, and she agreed with her, "Yes, this outfit was also suggested by her, and I like it very much too."

Shen looked down at the outfit that she was already tired of, her eyes somewhat depressed.

She seemed like she hadn't dressed up properly for a long time.

She is so old and ugly, so the Prime Minister will not come to her room.

The maidservant next to her noticed something and said, "Madam, why don't you go to Yunjun Tower and let Madam Qianyue dress you up. If you dress yourself up, you will feel happy when you see yourself."

Shen's eyes lit up when she heard this, "Okay, let's go to Yunjun Tower."

But when they arrived at Yunjun Tower with great expectations, they were told that the quota for today was full and Madam Qianyue would not entertain any guests.

Shen's mood instantly fell.

Seeing this, the maid beside her hurriedly comforted her: "Madam, if you can't do it today, then we will schedule it for tomorrow."

Shen's expression eased a little, "Okay."

Seeing that Shen agreed with her words, the maid immediately told the woman who passed the message, "Tell Madam Qianyue that my wife wants to reserve a spot for tomorrow."

"Tomorrow's quota is also full"

The maid was unwilling to give up and said again: "What about the day after tomorrow?"

"It's the same. To tell you the truth, the places for this month are all full," the woman said, and left without looking back.

Seeing her like this, the maid was furious, "I don't believe this, this shabby place can be so prosperous, the quota is full"

Seeing this, a pink-dressed girl in the store stepped forward to explain to them, "You don't understand this, do you? Madam Qianyue only dresses up two people a day. All the girls in Kyoto have to wait in line for a long time before they can get a chance to see you."

Shen suffered a series of setbacks and instantly lost his mood.

"Forget it, let's not do it anymore." So she left with her maid.

In a room upstairs, Chen Qianyue stood at the window and looked out, watching Shen's leaving figure with a smug smile on her lips.

Seeing this, the attendant beside her asked in confusion: "Madam, why don't you receive the wife of the Prime Minister? If you can win her over, won't the reputation of your Yunjun Tower be further enhanced?"

Chen Qianyue turned her head, her eyes filled with disdain, "My Yujun Tower does not entertain people from the Xiangfu. Who told them to go too far and anger my nephew? As his aunt, I have to support him."

Except for Shen, other people in the Prime Minister's Mansion encountered the same thing today.

They didn't even know what was happening. They felt confused and thought they were unlucky.
