Xiao Shiji returned to the Marquis of Zhuguo's Mansion and heard that Du Hengshuang had gone to Liuguang Pavilion, so he also rushed over.

He dismounted outside the Streamer Pavilion and glanced at the door of the Streamer Pavilion.

It's a lively place.

He saw the princess's guards, honor guards, as well as the Cui family's subordinates, chariots and horses, and two big carts from his own Zhu Guohou Mansion. One he is very familiar with, and it is one that Du Hengshuang often rides when he goes out. The other one seems to be for the guests, probably Zhu Susu is sitting over.

Xiao Shiji's face turned pale, and he walked up the steps quickly and came to the lobby of the Streamer Pavilion.

This is Du Hengshuang's dowry shop, in order to avoid suspicion, Xiao Shiji has never come.

The guys of the Streamer Pavilion also only learned about Lu Dao today, and their owner turned out to be Mrs. Zhuguohou, and they were all excited.

A tall man walked in slowly, blocking out half of the sunlight outside the door.

"What do you want to buy, officer? We have here the best jewelry in Chang'an City. The man hurriedly and enthusiastically greeted him.

Xiao Shiji smiled.

The little guy who came with him hurriedly said, "Are you blind? This is the Marquis of Zhuguo, why don't you take us to see Madame soon! ”

The guys in the Streamer Pavilion suddenly felt dizzy. - It's actually the Marquis of Zhu Guo!

stepped forward one by one to greet him, and led Xiao Shiji to the guest house inside.

The door to this room is usually closed.

Today, because of the many people who came, the door was ajar.

The fellow peeked inside, and secretly thought that it was fortunate that the room was large. Otherwise, with so many people inside, it would definitely be overwhelming.

Xiao Shiji stood in the shadow of the half-open lattice door with his hands behind his back, quietly watching the movement in the room.

He saw that on the top of the gate, there was a princess with a proud face, and Mu Yelai was standing beside her. Mu Yelai lowered his head, unable to see her expression.

There was a woman standing opposite Princess Qianjin, her back was unfamiliar, and Xiao Shiji couldn't tell who it was.

But the woman diagonally opposite the princess, although she was also facing away from him. But he could recognize it at a glance. It is Du Hengshuang.

There was a woman holding her arm standing next to Du Hengshuang, looking at the appearance of her hair, it should be Zhu Susu.

The man standing next to Zhu Susu was wearing a dark red arrow-sleeved Pegasus robe, also with his hands behind his back. It must be An Zichang.

And the corner of the wall not far from Anzichang. There is also a veiled woman in a bearded suit. A pair of eyes are very flexible, and when you look at it in the room, it looks a little like Du Hengshuang's eyes.

Xiao Shiji raised his eyebrows slightly. His eyes were like lightning, and he took a deep look at the masked woman.

The masked woman seemed to sense that someone was watching her, and quickly glanced at An Zichang, seeing that his eyes were not on the fiancée next to him, but instead crossed over to his fiancée, and looked at Mrs. Zhu Guohou on his fiancée's side, her eyes couldn't help but dim, and she shrank more and more into the corner of the wall.

There was originally a half-person tall rosewood plum blossom in the corner of the wall, and there was a strange stone bonsai on the high table. The strange stone was covered with a little moss, like a strange peak. There was also a small natural hole in the top of the stone, and there was a gurgling water flowing out of the small hole, and from a distance it looked like a waterfall on a high mountain.

The masked woman took a few steps back and retreated directly to the shadow behind the stone bonsai, completely blocking the view of others from prying eyes.

Xiao Shiji retracted his gaze and looked in the direction of Du Hengshuang.

As soon as Cui Yingying came in before, she saw Du Hengshuang in the house, she was slightly stunned, and asked in surprise: "Mrs. Zhu Guohou, you are also here to buy jewelry?" You've got a crush on my string of beads?! ”

The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Miss Cui Er, Mrs. Zhu Guohou is the owner of the shop!" "I said it with pride and pride.

Cui Yingying's face suddenly became ugly, "This Streamer Pavilion, is it the property of the Marquis of Zhuguo?" ”

Du Hengshuang corrected her lightly, "It's my dowry shop, and it has nothing to do with our Hou Ye." As he spoke, he muttered to himself in his heart, first Mu Yelai, and then Cui Yingying, all pushed this shop to Xiao Shiji, and I don't know what Lu Dao means......

Cui Yingying snorted and said in a long voice: "It turned out to be the property of Mrs. Zhuguohou. Alas, if I had known about the road, I would never have come to this shop. ”

Because Cui Yingying's third brother Cui Sanlang's arms were destroyed in Du Hengshuang's hands, and Xiao Shiji would rather be with the daughter of a lowly merchant like Du Hengshuang, rather than enter the genealogy of the Xiao family in Lanling to marry herself, all of this made Cui Yingying hate Du Hengshuang to the core.

Even if the Streamer Pavilion was the best jewelry shop in Chang'an City, she wouldn't look at it.

Since he hates her so much, of course he doesn't want her to earn his own money. She couldn't wait for a deposit, so she turned around and left.

However, seeing that the princess was also in the house, Cui Yingying suddenly changed her mind.

Since this thing is what Princess Qianjin also wants, she Cui Yingying can't let go.

Cui Yingying only glanced at Du Hengshuang, and without saying hello, she stood in front of the princess, respectfully bowed, and said, "Her Royal Highness the princess Wan'an." ”

Princess Qianjin was originally squeezed by Du Hengshuang's words, and she was embarrassed to ask for that Xiangzhu again, but when she saw Cui Yingying standing in front of her, a nameless fire burned in her heart, and she also changed her mind, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Miss Cui Er, why did you run out when you didn't prepare for marriage at home?" ”

"Of course, they're here to get my dowry." Cui Yingying said with a smile, and said to Du Hengshuang, who was standing diagonally in front of her: "Mrs. Zhuguohou, can you take the Xiang Zhu I just bought over to Princess Qianjin to take a look?" "This is to call Du Hengshuang as a little guy.

Of course, Du Hengshuang ignored her, and said without looking back: "Shopkeeper, has Miss Cui Er paid off the bill?" ”

The shopkeeper said loudly outside the door: "Miss Cui Er has just brought a box of gold bricks over, and the little old man has not counted it yet." ”

"Then count the warehousing, confirm that it is correct, and then hand over Xiang Zhu to Miss Cui Er." Du Hengshuang commanded unambiguously at all.

Princess Qianjin was stunned for a moment and pointed her finger at Cui Yingying. looked at Du Hengshuang in disbelief and said, "Hey, didn't I say I wanted that string of beads?" Are you deaf? Just sell it to her? You didn't mean to, did you? "She's a princess, and someone still robs her of what she wants......

Du Hengshuang looked at Princess Qianjin and said lightly: "Your Royal Highness Princess, when doing business, you pay attention to the first come, the first come, the first come, the first to come, the first to come, the first to come, the first to come, the first to come, the first to Since it was Miss Cui Er's deposit first, and she paid the full amount of the goods, this bead. Of course it's hers. - Her Royal Highness the princess is one step late. Next time, if you need it, please come early to make a deposit. "A business-like tone.

Mu Yelai raised his head slightly, his crow-winged eyelashes flashed, and he was about to open his lips to speak. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a tall man standing in the shadow of the half-open door. My heart trembled. - It was the shadow of the past and present lives that lingered in her heart. Even if he turns to ashes, she knows him! He immediately shut up and lowered his head again. Shrunk behind Princess Qianjin.

The princess was so angry that her hands trembled, and she pointed at Du Hengshuang and couldn't speak for a long time.

Du Hengshuang smiled lightly and said, "Princess, don't worry, this kind of Xiangzhu is not a good one." If there is a better one in the future, I will definitely leave the shopkeeper for Her Royal Highness the Princess, so that Her Royal Highness the Princess can have a sneak peek, how about it? ”

Cui Yingying sneered, shook her head and said, "What is better than this is only found in a dream." ”

The princess's face sank like water, and her anger was on the verge of exploding.

After the shopkeeper counted the gold bricks outside, and checked that they were all real gold, he asked the maid to put the beads in a long box with yellow pear inlaid with amber and held it for Cui Yingying.

Cui Yingying smiled and took the box from the maid's hand, opened it slowly in front of the princess, took out the bead from it, held it in her hand, and swayed it in front of the princess, "Your Royal Highness the princess, you can take a good look." Next time, you must pick a better necklace bead than this. Almost, you don't even want to buy it. Otherwise, you really don't deserve the identity of your daughter's princess! ”

There are no windows in this special room for distinguished guests, so the palace lamps are hung in the house during the day.

Cui Yingying's fingers hooked the string of necklace beads, swaying under the illumination of the palace lamp, waving bursts of colorful pearls, more dazzling than the previous box of yellow and clear gold bricks.

Most of the eyes of the people in the room were attracted by this string of necklace beads.

Zhu Susu sighed beside him. This string of necklace beads is indeed very luxurious and delicate, but she just doesn't feel like she is in line with herself. Now it seems that if she had accepted it, it would not have caused these two people to fight. - Cui Yingying and Princess Qianjin, each of them is a master who is not easy to offend.

The nobles of the family in Chang'an City today are roughly divided into two factions.

One faction is the gate valve of the scholar clan who is related to the five surnames and seven wangs, of course, led by the Qinghe Cui family.

One faction is to keep up with the pace of His Majesty and respect the royal princess.

The Streamer Pavilion made such a fuss, but it offended the people of these two factions. How can you do business in the future?

Zhu Susu looked at Du Hengshuang with some uneasiness.

An Zichang just glanced at the string of necklace beads, and felt that the style seemed to come from the Western Regions, so he couldn't help but look at it twice.

Xiao Shiji was probably the only one here who didn't look at the bead. His gaze only fell on Du Hengshuang who was standing in the room. In his opinion, no matter how brilliant the jewels are, they are not as valuable as that person.

The masked woman in the bearded dress hiding behind the stone bonsai on the corner of the wall couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice when she saw this string of necklace beads.

How could this string of beads be here?!

The masked woman in the bearded dress couldn't hide herself anymore, staggered out of the corner, came to Cui Yingying's side, looked straight at the beads swaying between her fingers, and said like a dream: "...... How do you have this string of beads? ”

A masked woman in a bearded suit rushed out, and no one stopped her from coming to her side, Cui Yingying's face sank, and she was about to get angry. But when she saw the woman's exposed eyes looking directly at the Xiang Zhu in her hand, she was obviously shocked by the beauty of the Xiang Zhu, and she was a little proud in her heart.

Mu Yelai was taken aback when he heard the woman in the bearded clothes ask this, raised his head suddenly, looked at her in disbelief, and then quickly lowered his head. Her movements were extremely fast, as if her glance just now was just someone else's illusion, and no one in the room noticed Mu Yelai's strange appearance just now.

Cui Yingying smiled and shook the bead in front of the masked woman in the bearded dress again, "How?" Why can't I have this string of beads? ”

The masked woman in the bearded suit was, of course, the princess Chaoyun of Emperor Dezhen of the former dynasty.

She stared at the string of necklace beads with a complicated expression, trembled and stretched out her hand, "Can you give me a closer look?" ”

Cui Yingying retracted her hand, shook her head and smiled: "No." ”

Princess Chaoyun bit her lip and said boldly: "Then can you please take a look at the back of this beaded bloodstone, is it engraved with the word 'child' in Yin?" ”

Cui Yingying was a little inexplicable, but looking at the masked woman in a bearded suit didn't look like a joke, she hesitated for a while, but she still turned over the bead and looked at the back of the bloodstone. - Sure enough, the word "child" is engraved in Yin.

"How do you know the way?!" Cui Yingying was very surprised, and held Xiang Zhu tightly in her hand, for fear of being taken away.

Princess Chaoyun's heart suddenly sank: sure enough, it was the string of necklace beads of her niece Li Jingxun, who died early!

Li Jingxun is the granddaughter of the princess of the former dynasty, a generation younger than the princess of Chaoyun, and her small character is called "child".

Li Jingxun's biological mother died early, and she was raised in the deep palace by her grandmother, the eldest princess, since she was a child. It's a pity that he died at the age of nine. When she was alive, she was pampered, but whenever there was something good, she was asked to pick it first, and then it was her turn to be the princess and cousins.

This string of inlaid jewels and beads is a tribute purchased from Persia that year.

At that time, their group of princesses and cousins all coveted this string of necklace beads, but both the emperor and the eldest princess decided to give this string of necklace beads to the little Li Jingxun. Princess Chaoyun was only a few years older than Li Jingxun at that time, and because she didn't ask for this string of beads, she secretly cried for a long time.

Unfortunately, not long after, Li Jingxun suddenly fell ill and died.

The eldest princess and the emperor were grieving, and ordered Li Jingxun to be buried with her, and all her beloved things were buried together. Her tomb used the highest level that the Great Zhou could use except for the royal family. The funeral stuff can't even be compared to a serious princess.

She still remembers the gorgeous epitaph: "Lang is quiet and quiet, and the word is a child...... Shuhui is known, Zhilan Tianting, Yuhua hair, Fangliu Zhaoyue...... The ring beads are bright and bright, and the flowers and incense are fragrant. Under the frosty day, the spring falls, and before the jade platform is climbed, it is sad that Zelan is dying......"

This is Li Jingxun's thing, and it is the burial goods of their Great Zhou royal family. In this Du Hengshuang's shop, how can there be a Xiang Zhu buried by her niece? !

Princess Chaoyun turned her head and glared at Du Hengshuang angrily, and a pair of eyes that looked like Du Hengshuang seemed to be about to erupt into flames.

"Mrs. Marquis Zhuguo, let me ask you, how can you have the funeral goods of the county lord of the previous Great Zhou Dynasty?!"

Hearing the masked woman in the bearded dress say this, everyone in the room was shocked.

"Funeral goods? - Impossible! Mrs. Zhuguo Marquis is so bright, how can she rob the tomb and dig the grave?! You don't talk nonsense! Mu Yelai was the first to stand up and speak loudly for Du Hengshuang.

Someone in the room gasped.
