"You also know about Su Jin's talents. Do you want him to stay by your side all his life and be a mediocre bookboy? Someone has to dig out gold, right?" Ye Lingmo said.

"Don't bother Your Highness with this. Your Highness should go back to rest earlier. Jin'er is still injured and needs a good rest." Su Heng issued the order to evict the guest.

"If you think about it clearly, the king welcomes you at any time."

Ye Lingmo finally left, Su Heng turned around and entered Su Jin's room, and sat in front of the table.

"If you have nothing else to do, son, please go back and rest earlier."

Su Heng looked at the teacup that Ye Lingmo had just used, and slowly raised his head to meet Su Jin's neither humble nor overbearing eyes.

"Jin'er, do you resent me for hindering your official career?"

"Young master, don't worry, Jin'er will not work under King Cheng. Duke Wu's mansion and General Cheqi cannot stand in line with the two princes. Jin'er still understands this."

Su Heng sighed, what should he say, so that he can put aside the status and fame in front of him and speak from his own standpoint.

"Although King Cheng of the two princes does not seem to be as strategic as the prince, it is only on the surface. In the battle last year, the emperor asked me to bring King Cheng with him, saying that it was for experience. I saw that King Cheng was fighting on the battlefield at that time. He is not a mediocre person, otherwise how could he win the title of king in one battle, obviously not yet crowned.

Our own eyesight, but only eyesight.Although it seems that I walk around a lot with King Cheng on weekdays, that is also the emperor's intention.Actually I never had to choose between the two princes, that's not something I should consider.Your Majesty is in his prime, and Ye Xi Kingdom is also in its prime. We have only one master, and that is His Majesty.As for the rest, let's not do our business. " Su Heng said.

"It's best if you think so, Young Master. Jin'er won't hold you back. Please rest assured, Young Master. If you say..."

"Shh - walls have ears, don't say more."

People who practice martial arts have a particularly sensitive sense of hearing, but it was only just now that Su Heng discovered that someone was eavesdropping on their conversations, which meant that the martial arts skills of the people who came here must not be low.

After feeling that the man had left, Su Heng continued to speak: "The battle during the day, it seems that the emperor has not dispelled his doubts about me."

"A king must be thoughtful. A fight during the day will make the emperor suspect that you did it on purpose, so you should be cautious in your words and deeds in the future."

Su Heng smiled and said, "Jin'er still cares about me."

"Young master is Jin'er's master, Jin'er has to consider for you."

"I see, you have a good rest, I'm going back."

The capital is prosperous and there are many types of goods, but there are few gadgets from other places.In the morning of the second day, Ye Xuanli said that he would go to the market in Huai'an, so Su Heng went together.

Vendors, big and small, were yelling in the street, and it was a scene of joy and harmony. Su Heng followed Ye Xuanli, saying that he was escorting him, but he was also very dishonest. When he saw novelty gadgets, he always went up to take a look.

"My lord, it's more important for the master, please be quiet." Su Jin tugged at Su Heng who was looking at the jewelry.

"Just a moment, boss, how much does this hairpin cost?" Su Heng held a wooden hairpin and asked the boss. He liked this hairpin very much. Although the workmanship was completely incomparable with the jewelry shops in the capital, it was better because the hairpin was engraved on it. Splendid word.

"Two taels of silver." The boss said.

"Okay." Su Heng said and touched his arms for a long time, but found nothing. Then he remembered that when he went out, he simply forgot to bring money.

"Jin'er, have you brought any money?" Su Heng looked at Su Jin with an aggrieved expression.

Su Jin shook his head, but only gave him a penny.

"It's two taels, not a penny."

After Su Heng finished speaking, Su Jin directly took back the penny in his hand, and now Su Heng looked at the empty palm even more aggrieved.

"Both, do you still buy it?"

"In the best jewelry shop in the capital, a wooden hairpin only costs one penny. Huai'an is far away from the capital, and it is far less prosperous than the capital. Why do you need a wooden hairpin for two taels of silver? I'm afraid you are selling this year's jewelry. It's only ten taels of silver." Su Jin said holding the wooden hairpin.

"It turned out that you were cheating me, you black-hearted merchant. You can't cheat me just because I'm a foreigner. Is there any law for you?"

After Su Heng finished speaking, Su Jin's face collapsed. Although Su Heng never paid for things when he went shopping, he would not be tricked.But now the conclusion is that he must not be allowed to go shopping alone, it will ruin the family.

"The two of you are dressed so gorgeously, do you still want to argue with the little one about the two taels of silver?" The trader laughed at the two, trying to get away with it.

"The people in Huai'an can earn a few taels of silver for a year of hard work, and that's us. If we were ordinary people, wouldn't we be cheated of half a year's ration by you?" Su Jin said.

"Isn't it because you look at the fine Shu brocade that the two masters are wearing? Don't you care about two taels of silver with the little one? Your silver is easy to come by, so just pity us little people. If ordinary people buy it, at most I also want twenty Wen from him." The vendor said.

"yes."

After hearing this, Su Jin took out thirty Wen from his pocket and put it in the vendor's hand.

"Thirty Wen, no more, thank you boss."

"You... hey! I didn't expect you to dress so well and still care about me as a commoner. I was blind and thought you were different from those people." The vendor looked at the thirty cents in his hand and straightened Shake your head.

"We are no different from ordinary people. We all earn money through our own hard work. However, who are those people in your mouth? Can you tell me?" Su Jin asked by the way when he handed over the wooden hairpin in his hand to Su Heng. said a word.

"Who else is there? It's not the official in Huai'an. After paying the tax every year, the rest is enough to fill the stomach, but the official still collects food from us from time to time. Now it is a problem to even fill the stomach. Forget it. Forget it, don’t say it, it’s useless to say it.”

"Jin'er, let's go, we don't care about these things." Su Heng said.

"Although it is not under our control, but since we have seen it, if we continue to let this situation continue, how can we be worthy of the annual salary from the imperial court?"

"Let's not talk about this first, I'll put it on for you." Su Heng held the wooden hairpin in his hand, and was about to put it on for Su Jin, when he turned around, he froze in place.

"Emperor...Master, why are you here?" Su Heng's hand was still in the air. At this time, he saw Ye Xuanli and Ye Lingmo standing behind them, and hurriedly inserted the wooden hairpin into Su Jin's head, and then Looking at the two behind him with a smile on his face?However, Su Jin's scalp hurt a little from Su Heng's random stabbing. When he raised his hand to take it off, he saw two people behind him.

"Old... master, young master."
