Meng Yanran sighed in her heart.

Her gaze shifted to the side of the guests again, and the princess of Nanyue came out, followed by a man, and the two bowed to the emperor and the queen mother, and then turned to face everyone.

The princess looks like that, Meng Yanran pouted, her skin was black and yellow, and the Yue people were really not good-looking.

As soon as this thought came to her, her eyes suddenly looked like iron meeting a magnet, and she couldn't help but be sucked by the man behind the princess.

Is there such a good-looking man in the world?!

Better than the big brothers!

Meng Yanran looked stunned, and until she sat down, her eyes stopped under the corridor and couldn't take her eyes off.

Among the men in the garden, Lang Jun, those who have his temperament are not as good as his appearance, and those who have his appearance are not as good as his temperament, such a person from Nanyue actually compared the Great Zhou and Manchu dynasties!

Meng Yanran gently pulled the person next to her and asked, "Sister Lin'er, who is this person?" ”

Next to her is the sister-in-law of Zuo Xiang's eldest daughter-in-law, the youngest daughter of the Sima family with Hu blood, Sima Mulin.

Sima Mulin glanced at her when she heard this, and replied to her lightly: "The son of Zhanxi in Nanyue, the righteous son of the king of Nanyue." ”

In the Great Zhou, people with Hu blood and Jiangnan Han people looked down on each other.

In particular, Zuo Xiang is a pro-Hu faction, and the daughter-in-law he married is the eldest daughter of the Sima family, who is related to the Hu royal family in the northwest.

Meng Guan won his favor, which really puzzled many people.

And Meng Yanran relied on Meng Guan's status to make the nobles in Beijing look at her differently, the Han girls liked to hold her, but the Hu girls still did not treat her as their own in private.

Meng Yanran saw that her tone was cold, and her heart was unhappy, but she still pressed her temper and asked: "Do you know what your name is?" ”

When Sima Mulin saw her appearance, she was even more disdainful, and sneered: "If my sister is interested, go and ask your brother, I heard that the prince of Zhanxi is not yet married, and when he comes back to Jinling, maybe he will choose a Han girl to marry!" ”

Meng Yanran didn't care about her smile, she was only attracted by those words, her eyes lit up, choose a Han girl......

Zhao Yuchu sat beside Zhao Jiao, smiling, and toasting with the surrounding Great Zhou princes.

In obvious contrast to his smile, it is the undisguised stinky face of Princess Zhao Jiao of Nanyue.

Zhao Yuchu touched the wine cup with someone, and took the opportunity to sit down, and whispered in Zhao Jiao's ear: "Don't pout your mouth too much, if Your Highness can't laugh anymore, how about wearing a mask and going out tomorrow?" ”

The voice was low, but it was as cold and hard as an iron plate.

Zhao Jiao believes that if she keeps a straight face again, he will really be able to make her wear a mask tomorrow.

She didn't want to wear the human skin mask, it was stuffy and disgusting.

She glanced at Zhao Yuchu, restrained her slightly, and flattened the corners of her drooping mouth.

This person is fierce and unsentimental, and he deserves to be the most obedient dog in her grandfather!

Zhao Yuchu personally filled the wine cup in front of her, motioned her to pick it up, and said in a low voice: "It's time to pay tribute to Emperor Zhou and the Queen Mother!" ”

Zhao Jiao gritted her teeth and raised her glass, stood up with him, came to the little emperor and the queen mother to meet with a national salute, and then raised her glass.

I only heard the Queen Mother smile and said: "You don't have to be polite, Nanyue and Da Zhou will become a family, we don't have to be formal, this time I came to Jinling, Yu Chu also stayed a few more days, and after Lin'er's wedding, and then Jiao'er became a good thing, you will not be too late to go." ”

Zhao Jiao's face was hidden behind the wide sleeves, and it was even darker.

Zhao Yuchu still had that gentle smile, "The Queen Mother can rest assured, Jinling is a place of treasures, and you can stay as long as you want." ”

The Queen Mother and the Little Emperor raised the wine cup and touched it with a smile.

Zhao Jiao returned to her position, and Tie Qing asked Zhao Yuchu with a face, "Why didn't you mention that you wanted to see someone first?" Who knows if they'll go back on it? The Han people are the most treacherous! ”

Zhao Yuchu was still smiling, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, don't worry, the Holy Lord has his own arrangements." ”

The moonlight is like a flower, shining on the pavilions and pavilions in the garden like the jade palace of Qionggong, he looked up at the moon, thinking that Yan Zhuo was also looking at the same moon as him, and his heart was a little relieved.

Yan Zhuo was admiring the moon and listening to the piano in the courtyard of the inn, and suddenly sneezed.

"Is the lady cold? I'm going to pick up the cloak! Sweet Fruit stood up.

Yun'er, who was stroking the qin, also raised her head, "It's late at night, why don't you go and rest?" ”

Yan Zhuo stood up and nodded, "Let's go, go to sleep." ”

That man should still be drinking and admiring the moon in the palace, right?

Early in the morning of the second day, Yan Zhuo packed up, put on a simple green shirt and skirt, and went straight to Baofeng Shop.

The door just opened in the morning, and there were no guests yet.

In the shop, Xiao Er took a feather duster to dust around, and when he saw Yan Zhuo coming in, he hurriedly greeted him and bowed down: "This guest officer, do you want to store goods or take silver?" ”

Yan Zhuo said, "I'm here to apply for an apprenticeship. ”

The little second was stunned, looked her up and down with his eyes, and laughed with a "snort".

In today's civilized atmosphere, there are many women who come out to do things as apprentices, especially in silk and satin shops, gouache shops, needlework and makeup girls, but they want people like this who can appreciate treasures and see goods and know how to sell and settle accounts.

Xiao Er pointed out and said with a smile: "Did the little lady go to the wrong door?" We are a Baofeng shop, a pawnshop and a silver ticket number, and we do not buy and sell rouge gouache. ”

Yan Zhuo was slightly stunned, "Baofeng Shop used to have more than a dozen female apprentices, and the four major directors were also women, why don't you accept female apprentices now?" ”

Xiao Er was stunned, he was new, he didn't know what Yan Zhuo said, he frowned, "What was before and after, we don't have a woman here." ”

After saying that, I urged him to leave.

As he was talking, a farmer came in from outside and said urgently: "Little Er, be a carry!" ”

The little two said "hey", put down the feather duster and called people, "Mr. Mao, there are customers as goods!" ”

There were few people in the store this morning, and a sleepy-eyed middle-aged man came out from behind, wearing a blue silk robe, rubbing his eyes and coming to the counter, looking at the farmer and asking, "What do you want to be?" ”

The farmer had a black face and rough skin, looked honest and simple, took out a cloth bag and put it on the counter, and there was a "clang" sound inside, "I dug out a bunch of these things in the field yesterday, like ancient money, how much is it worth for you?" ”

Mr. Mao narrowed his eyes, looked at the pile of strange-shaped coins in front of him, picked one up and looked at it carefully, and asked Xiao Er to take strips of cloth, tweezers, needles and pliers, etc., and rubbed and wiped and knocked on it.

He shook his head quietly, "It's ancient money, but it's a sacrificial grimace money, and it's not worth a few silver." ”

Yan Zhuo stood beside him, only glanced up, and immediately recognized that it was the ant-nose money from the pre-Qin Chu Kingdom.

Although the ant-nose money and the grimace money are both pre-Qin shell coins, they were prevalent in circulation at the end of the Chu State, and they were also the precursor coins of the copper fan coinage method, but unfortunately they soon disappeared with the fall of the Chu State, and they became more and more rare in the world and were extremely precious.

This person clearly bullied this farmer and didn't understand, and casually said that grimacing money to reduce the price was the most disgusting behavior when she took care of Baofeng Shop, and it was also a violation of the iron law of Baofeng Shop's honest inspection.

Such a person can enter Baofeng Shop as a gentleman! Yan Zhuo's heart was painful and angry.

She stepped forward with a cold face and stood aside to watch Mr. Mao's movements.
