After the celebration banquet that day, Chu Xuanling only felt a little lost in his heart, but he didn't know what to do for a while.

The jade pendant was definitely going to be returned to Mu Qing, so it only took a few days, and after thinking it clearly, he ordered the jade pendant in the sachet to be sent to the third prince's mansion.

Who knew that Kiyomasa Miki happened to be not at home that day.

She was alone in the Three Princes' Mansion in a panic, so she simply went to find a shop on the street, wanting to say that she could open a shop on the street.

Although the previous divine doctor Qing Ziran took all her money, but fortunately, the emperor rewarded a lot and bought a shop, which is not too difficult.

Mu Qing is not here, and the person who accepted the jade pendant is Danqing, the little guy next to Bailichen.

Although the little guy who sent the things was instructed to give the things to Mu Qing, but now that Mu Qing is not there, he is in a hurry to go back to restore his life, so he naturally gave the things directly to Danqing.

Danqing had already been instructed by his master, and seeing that the thing sent was a jade pendant, it was naturally not good to hand it over to Mu Qing directly, but sent it to Bailichen.

When he entered, Bai Lichen was resting on the couch in the house.

Hearing the movement around him, he opened his eyes slightly, looking at the things handed over by Danqing, his expression was not very good-looking.

"This was sent by General Chu?"

Bai Chen's tone made Danqing's body shrink for a moment, he had been following Bai Lichen for so many years, and naturally knew that his master was really angry now.

"Your Highness, calm down, this jade pendant doesn't look like a general, maybe it was given to the general by the third imperial concubine in the past, but now it's just sent back?"

"Of course I know."

Hearing Danqing's words, Bai Lichen's eyes froze for a moment.

When did he become so sensitive, this jade pendant looked like a woman's object.

And if Chu Xuanling wanted to give his jade pendant to Mu Qing, he wouldn't be arrogant and directly ask someone to send it to the Three Princes' Mansion, otherwise wouldn't he just give people a handle?

It's just that even if this is Mu Qing's old thing, this proves even more that there was indeed a private relationship between Mu Qing and Chu Xuanling.

"Your Highness, is this jade pendant going to be returned to Niangniang?"

When Danqing was talking, the jade pendant in his hand was taken away by Bai Lichen.

"No need, leave this thing with me."

Danqing was stunned.

"Then what if the princess asks......

"You just said that she hadn't seen it, and she wouldn't go directly to ask General Chu." Holding the jade pendant in his hand, the corners of Bailichen's lips were slightly hooked, and he played with it carefully.

This jade pendant is a good object, a piece of warm jade, and it will not make people feel cold in their hands at all.

"Yes."

Although he felt that something was wrong, Danqing was not good at disobeying his master, so he had to nod and retreat.

Fortunately, Mu Qing didn't know about this matter at all, in order to avoid suspicion, Chu Xuanling just sent the jade pendant over, and did not ask someone to bring a message to Mu Qing, this jade pendant just fell into the hands of Bai Lichen, and it was a month less than a month.

Mu Qing's shop on the street is made of jewelry.

She didn't have much silver in her hand, and most of the things that the emperor gave were gifts from the emperor, so she couldn't take them out and exchange them for silver, so they could only be used as decorations.

So most of the things sold in the shop now are small and worthless gadgets, which are better than in terms of exquisiteness.

Each piece of jewelry was designed by Mu Qing himself, and the makeup on the faces of the two maids in the shop was painted by Mu Qing himself every day.

Today's peach blossom makeup, tomorrow's palace makeup, every day is a little different, with those innovative and not too expensive jewelry, in the streets and alleys of the capital gradually have a little business.

Even after the fame, some noble ladies with not very high status will come to this shop to buy jewelry.

"Miss is really capable, this shop has only been more than a month, and it has begun to gradually become profitable, and it can earn a tael of silver a day."

Xin'er's tone is not an exaggeration, in the past, when she was in the Mu family, she and Miss only had four taels of silver per month, and a lot of money had to be deducted, and there was almost no money in hand.

Now this shop has a profit of nearly thirty taels of silver a month, how can this make people unhappy.

Mu Qing didn't think so, these thirty taels of silver, how long would it take for her to be the richest woman in the capital, her goal was not only that.

And things are not only so smooth sailing, at the beginning no one knew about the operator of this shop, so naturally no one embarrassed her.

But after a period of time, the news that the owner of this shop was the Third Imperial Concubine Mu Qing spread quickly.

Soon, there were a lot of people in her shop who came to make trouble.

At first, it was just a few guests who bought and returned the goods, and the two girls in charge of the shop were able to barely cope with it, but later, they came to the door with some ruffians who didn't know where, all of them were fierce and vicious, where could the two girls' families deal with it?

Because of this, there are a lot fewer customers in the shop.

"Mother, are you here? Those shameless scoundrels came at this hour, and in the past few days they have become more and more rampant, almost every once in a while to make trouble, scaring away a lot of customers, and we have lost a lot of business. ”

As soon as Mu Qing arrived in the hall, before he could ask, the chief steward over there told Mu Qing about the situation of the shop in the past few days.

Seeing that there were only Xin'er and Mama Chen behind her, I felt a little strange in my heart.

"Niangniang, didn't you bring the guards in the house today, why are you and Mama Chen, and Sister Xin'er?"

Thinking of this, Mu Qing felt a little angry in his heart.

The subordinates in the prince's mansion are also accustomed to praising the high and stepping on the low, and in the past few days, seeing that the relationship between the third prince and himself has deteriorated, she naturally treats her request a little perfunctory, and even asks a few guards to go out of the mansion together, and has been pushed back several times.

"It's okay, I'm the third princess in the end, these people won't do anything to me, don't worry, I'm going to see what the situation is today!"

Mu Qing rested in the back of the store for a while, and then he heard the noise outside.

"Why is your shop still open, the girl in your shop beat me yesterday, and my hand still hurts now, and the medical expenses haven't been paid yet, right?"

It was obviously the leader of these ruffians who said this, and he walked around the shop in a hurry, and casually snatched a hairpin that the guests were picking and put it in his arms.

"This is considered interest, if Ming'er can't give me a hundred taels of silver, my brothers will avenge me."

After getting something and scaring away a lot of guests, the ruffian was about to leave, when he heard a scolding voice behind him.

Mu Qing was supported by Mama Chen and Xin'er and walked out from behind.

"Who are you, in broad daylight, to do such a thing of theft and disturbance to the people? Watch out for us reporting to the police! ”

"Yo, little lady, you still report to the official, grandpa, I have been in this capital for I don't know how many years, when have you been afraid, don't blame grandpa for not warning you, not only can you catch a few brothers when you report to the official, but you angered grandpa and me, it's not such a simple thing today." After the hooligan threatened Mu Qing for a few words, he saw that her face was full of national color and fragrance, and he had evil thoughts in his heart.

"The little lady looks good, consider considering grandpa me? Grandpa, if I become the shopkeeper of this shop, then this medical expenses will naturally not be bothered with my own shop. ”

These ruffians and hooligans specially bully the shops opened by these female shopkeepers, after all, the daughter's family is easy to bully, and if they are slightly scared, they will obediently hand over their things.

Unexpectedly, Mu Qing just stared at him, but he was not afraid of this threat at all.

"Mama Chen, listen to it, just like this bastard, she is trying to compare herself to His Royal Highness the Third Prince, and she doesn't weigh her identity!"

"Bold fanatics, this is the concubine of the three princes today, you bastard who doesn't learn and don't know how to do it, you dare to be a street teaser, I'm afraid you're impatient!"

Xin'er also stood up and pointed at the hooligan's nose and scolded.

At first, the hooligan was also frightened, but looking at the only three girls who spoke, the confidence in his heart gradually returned.

"What about jokes, the three imperial concubines went out, and they didn't even bring a few guards from the prince's mansion? I'm afraid it's not fooling a few of our brothers, right? The little lady is still obedient......"

The hooligan said that he was about to come over to pull Muqing, who knew that there was a commotion in the crowd around him, and then a group of soldiers hurriedly dismounted, and the long sword in his hand was stretched out by the hooligan.

"You rude, what are you doing to the Third Imperial Concubine!"

Hearing this, the faces of several hooligans suddenly turned a little pale.

Is this little lady really the mother of the three imperial concubines?

"Misunderstanding...... Mother, this is all a misunderstanding......"

The leader of the hooligans has long since disappeared, and he has been arrogant and stammering.

"Misunderstanding?" Mu Qing raised his eyebrows, with a somewhat emotionless smile on his face.

"It's easy to say it's a misunderstanding, as long as you tell me honestly, who told you to come here to make trouble?"

There are so many shops on this street, and these hooligans come to their shops every day to harass them, if it weren't for someone to instigate it, Mu Qing wouldn't believe it.

"This ...... We don't know this, I'm just a gangster, how can I know who is behind it. ”

The hooligan leader was so frightened that his legs and feet were weak, and he almost knelt directly on the ground.

Looks like I really don't know.

"Presumably, the people behind it will not have direct contact with these people, and they should be ...... through maids or grandmothers."

"Niangniang, I've frightened you, my subordinates will bring these thugs back first, and Niangniang will let them go, and there will be no more these thugs to continue to harass Niangniang's shop in the future."

The officer at the head respected Mu Qing very much, arched his hand, and then took the hooligans away.

"You are ......"

Presumably not the soldiers of the palace, Mu Qing didn't know them.

"The subordinates are under the command of General Chu, and today I am ordered to inspect the streets, and I have disturbed many people to ask my mother for forgiveness." The officer looked back and explained.
