After three years of separation, Ruoyun stepped into Chang'an Avenue again, and this feeling of being separated from the world came to her face.

The streets are bustling, selling everything, the shouts of vendors, the sound of dishes and chopsticks in restaurants, the smell of wine in alleys, and the sound of dice in gambling houses......

These voices are like time standstill, just like the Chang'an Street in her memory, when she sat in a soft sedan chair into the palace for a banquet, and only dared to secretly lift the curtain to take a look......

She just watched the people come and go in a daze, as if she had been hooked away from her soul.

Xiaohong is often called out to do things, so she shook her and said with a smile: "Xiao ...... Sister Ruoyun, there is no food to eat when it gets dark, and I can't make dinner no matter how much I can work. ”

Ruoyun was happy when she heard the sound, and looked at Xiaohong's blinking eyes and laughed: "Yes, yes, I hope that Manager Hong will lead the way." ”

Xiaohong stuck out her tongue and pulled her forward with a smile, holding on to her firmly as if she would be lost.

She looked at Xiaohong's back in front of her, and her heart was warm: now, she is her only family.

After a few bends through the street, the plaque of "Jinyifang" is on the opposite side of the street, and the gilded black background signboard is particularly eye-catching but also very familiar.

I vaguely remember the scene when the emperor brought the emperor's relatives and important ministers to sacrifice, and it was also a rare day for her to go out.

And most of the satin is ordered by the brocade shop. Only because this brocade shop supplies the best materials in the capital, many of them are shipped from Persia by the shopkeeper, and the dignitaries and nobles rushed to send the people in the house to choose, if they sent to choose the good materials have already been picked up, and it is common to see those ladies and ladies waiting in a sedan chair.

Sure enough, from a distance across the street, I saw a row of sedan chairs parked in front of the shop, and some girls watched from afar.

"Oops, little ...... Miss! Look at you! Xiaohong was the first to notice something, and grabbed her arm nervously, but she still couldn't change her words.

Ruoyun looked suspiciously, but found that the sedan chair at the door of the shop was engraved with a cloud, which seemed to be a sign of something...... She couldn't remember what signs......

"What, what's so special?" She looked at Xiaohong.

Sure enough, hearing her ask, Xiaohong's face flushed excitedly: "If there are beautiful men in this imperial city, in addition to the emperor and Prince Rong, the prince of Cheng Wangfu is the most handsome, which girl in this imperial city doesn't want to marry Cheng Wangfu......" Before the words were finished, Xiaohong smiled embarrassedly.

Ruoyun nodded her forehead in disgust: "Silly girl, your saliva is running down." ”

Although she was disgusted, she was also curious, could it be that King Cheng was the former king with a different surname, so what is this person who is full of capital......

As he spoke, he saw several servants come out of the shop and stand in two rows, and a man and a woman came out of the shop immediately afterward.

The man was dressed in white, the cuffs were dyed with almost invisible lilac, the big sleeves were covered with a silver gauze shirt, the waist seemed to be pinned with a jade pendant, the waist was straight, and the steps were elegant, as if a silver-white moonlight suddenly came in the daytime, attracting all the breath around to be still.

The woman is wearing a light beige dress, the cuffs are embroidered with red patterns, she is not tall but very lively, she talks and laughs, and she looks like a flower blooming in winter from a distance, which is very beautiful.

After such a distance, although she didn't see his appearance, her heart still moved, and the temperament she exuded made her really admire.

As soon as the two came out, the girls watching outside the door exchanged their heads and ears, very excited, and some young ladies lifted the curtain to see.

"It's Lord Cheng and Lord Cheng!" Xiaohong grabbed her sleeve tightly and almost rushed up to take a closer look.

The two ignored the reactions of passers-by, but the prince looked back as if looking in her direction.

Across the street, Ruoyun clearly felt that his gaze fell on her, and there seemed to be some kind of emotion in his eyes, long and plain, soft and gentle, with an inexplicable emotion...... She stood so stunned that her heart skipped a beat—something she had seen before, but she hadn't seen before......

Stop! The facial features have not yet been distinguished, she is definitely mistaken, Ruoyun pursed her lips and bowed her head slightly embarrassed.

"Miss! Lord Cheng looks here! Xiaohong was so excited that she seemed to be able to faint in the next second.

I don't know if I heard Xiaohong's nonsense, the man in white clothes came back to his senses, said a few words to the woman beside him, and sat in the sedan chair.

"Which Cheng Wangye?" Ruoyun looked at the sedan chair man and asked puzzledly, it is said that the old prince Cheng has three sons, and she has never seen them all.

"Oh, Miss, you don't go out on weekdays, this white-clothed person must be Prince Cheng Qingxuan!" Xiaohong explained happily, but it was the same as not explaining, in short, more gold, a beautiful man, in addition to that, I have to sigh that it is the moon that cannot be found.

Ruoyun shook her head, glared at her, and said, "We still have something to do, and when we get back, be careful and have no food to eat." "Giving back to the other in her way, she lifted her feet and left.

Xiaohong stuck out her tongue and quickly followed.

But as soon as she entered the door, there was a girl dressed in green, who was wearing a girl's clothes, but her spirit was no worse than that of Miss.

"Who is she?" Ruoyun hurriedly avoided it, and it was obvious that this girl rushed into the store as if she didn't exist.

"The maidservant of Prince Rong's mansion, Xiaocui." Xiaohong said angrily, "Miss, you don't know, this Rongwang Mansion is very generous." ”

Ruoyun nodded, this Prince Rong's mansion must be the emperor's younger brother - Prince Rong Yixuan, she looked, someone in the shop greeted her as soon as possible.

"Ouch, Miss Xiaocui, Lord Rong is going to cut clothes again." The shopkeeper is a chubby old man, wrapped tightly in silk, his two little eyes turned quickly, and he saw Xiao Cui at a glance, and he recognized that the girl of Rongwang's Mansion must have a big business, and he hurriedly greeted with a smile, and his voice was dripping honey.

"Do you have any new good material?" Xiao Cui obviously doesn't eat much of this set, so he is courteous.

"Yes, yes!" The shopkeeper was busy with three words, and he was afraid that the distinguished guests would slip away, "Our new materials here have just arrived in the store, no, Cheng Wangye and Miss Cheng just chose some, and there are a lot, but who are you going to do it for?" This side please. After saying that, he led the way while laughing.

There were sheets of cloth hanging in the shop, and a lot of the materials were ordered before they could be unfolded.

"This is not a winter festival right away, these materials are generous and valuable, just worthy of the dignity of your Prince Rong's mansion, look at this peacock soft satin, how beautiful." The shopkeeper has already taken out several batches of materials and started to recommend.

"Give me everything!" Xiao Cui waved her hand, and the posture was full, "The prince ordered, as long as it is good-looking, you can help me choose a few horses, and then let the old mother go to the palace to tailor the county lord." ”

After Xiao Cui explained, she chose a few horses as soon as possible, paid the deposit and turned around and left, and there was a sedan chair waiting when she went out, as if the shouting of the sedan chair driver in the prince's house was higher than that of others.

The chubby shopkeeper sent off the guest, and when he turned around, he saw her who was dirty and dressed ordinarily, and he didn't recognize the person in front of him, but the mung bean's eyes were round, and he smashed down with an angry shout: "Whose girl are you!" You can also come to this brocade shop?! Come on, blast me out! Don't scare the guests! ”

"Wait! Our young lady is ......" Xiaohong just wanted to speak, but suddenly found that it was already a thing or a person, how could the shopkeeper of this brocade shop treat them as guests.

"Shopkeeper, we are the girls in Lord Chu's house, we came to order cloth for Miss Chu, and asked the shopkeeper to introduce it on our behalf......" Ruoyun owes herself, and three years have worn out everything she can have as a young lady, but she still remembers this politeness.

The shopkeeper looked them up and down, and said suspiciously: "Tsk, other young ladies are all sending girls to come in a beautiful way, and even the maidservants who call them also sit in a sedan chair, you two are just afraid that they are liars!" ”

"It's not...... Not a liar! Xiaohong was anxious and hurriedly interjected, "If the shopkeeper doesn't believe it, you can send someone to Chu Mansion to ask!" ”

Ruoyun pulled her sleeve, stepped forward and said, "Shopkeeper, the material is sent directly to the Chu Mansion, and it doesn't go through our hands, don't worry." ”

The shopkeeper had a cold face and instructed the guys on the side to choose for them.

Favoritism, Ruoyun chuckled, anyway, she is from Chu Mansion, if she comes on behalf of Chu Rulan, she doesn't care at all.

It's just that this shopkeeper is too small-minded, and he doesn't take the capital Mansion Yin in his eyes with the patronage of a few princes, although there are many high-ranking officials in the capital, and the small mansion Yin in the capital is already a sesame petty official in comparison.

Sighing, Chu Rulan's favorite color was bright satin, so she chose a few and unconsciously stroked the plain cloth.

When she looked up, the satin was only snow-white, but by the light there were dark lines, and the thin silver thread was hidden in the middle of the snow-white silk, which was ingenious.

"Oops! This silver satin has just been decided by the prince, don't move, don't move! The man hurriedly walked over and brushed her hand away, as if he had brushed away something unclean, and glanced at her and hurriedly took the fabric into the store.

She sighed, so elegant, she actually liked it.

"Humph! Throw one’s weight around! Xiaohong grimaced at the guy's back.

"Shopkeeper, the trouble will be sent to the Chu Mansion later." Ruoyun didn't dare to stay longer, and only owed to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper waved his hand impatiently, and he didn't even bother to turn back.

This kind of business is only a few dozen taels, and he must not look down on it at all.

She didn't want to make trouble for Chu Rulan to catch the handle and ridicule herself, and she paid the deposit to go back, although she knew in her heart, Chu Rulan sent her to do things, there must be a following, in terms of knowledge and talent, Miss Chu drowned in the pile of young ladies in the capital, and picking thorns was her Miss Chu's best ability.
