Feng Yuanchen placed her well, and then said to Sheng Zhiyao, "You have a good rest, I'll go and let people boil medicine, and I'll send it to them in a while, so you don't have to worry about it."

"yes, okay." Sheng Zhiyao nodded obediently, looking at Feng Yuanchen softly.

"Then you just hang out, I'll take care of things first."

After Feng Yuanchen left, Sheng Zhiyao began to appreciate this mansion, and then she found that there was actually a small garden here!

"Wow, this is still a hole in a hole!"

Sheng Zhiyao rushed into the small garden and found that there were many rare potted plants in the corner of the garden.

"Mei'er, Zhu'er, do you also know that this is the prince's territory?"

Sheng Zhiyao squatted down, fiddled with a pink flower, and then touched the pear tree with dense foliage, and couldn't help but smile all over her face.

"Miss, we don't know so much, Yuchen Palace is very widely distributed, and the business scope is also very large, and we were still training when we were selected by Bu Xing to be a secret guard for Miss You."

So that's the case, Sheng Zhiyao came to her senses and asked again, "Where is my brother?"

"Childe seems to have sent Princess Zichu directly to the palace."

Sheng Zhiyao bowed: "Are you going to give it away so late?"

"The second young master is afraid of long nights and dreams, so he sent it in overnight."

"It's really like the style of the second brother."

It didn't take long for Sheng Hancheng to return to the inn alone, with a sad face.

Sheng Zhiyao stepped forward and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Sheng Hancheng raised his head, saw Sheng Zhiyao, and immediately pulled her into the corner: "Zhiyao, I have something important to tell you!"

"What's the matter?"

Sheng Hancheng mysteriously approached Sheng Zhiyao, lowered his voice and said, "Zhiyao......"

"Just call them here, are we still afraid of them?" Feng Yuanchen didn't know where it came from, with a thick mockery in his tone.

Sheng Zhiyao and Sheng Hancheng turned their heads to look at Feng Yuanchen with a brush, but the latter stood there with a frank face, his eyes as firm as an unshakable rock.

"You already know?"

"What are you two going to say?" Sheng Zhiyao blinked blankly, looking puzzled.

Sheng Hancheng suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "Let him tell you! I'm going to rest first!" Then leave in a hurry.

Feng Yuanchen couldn't help but shake his head when he saw his back running away.

Sheng Zhiyao frowned slightly, and her puzzled gaze fell on Feng Yuanchen, who was not afraid to meet her and looked at her.

Halfway through, Sheng Zhiyao asked lightly, "Say it."

Feng Yuanchen nodded and stated the matter briefly and concisely.

After listening, Sheng Zhiyao stared at him in a daze, and did not react for a long time.

"What's wrong?" Feng Yuanchen looked at her with concern.

Sheng Zhiyao suddenly smiled, as if the spring breeze was blowing, making people feel relaxed, warm and comfortable.

"I think that the people of Xichu haven't inquired or have some serious brain disease, don't you know that their princess lost so badly under my hands?"

Hearing this, Feng Yuanchen said, "This is true, when you win, the envoy of the Western Chu Kingdom will probably be able to faint on the spot."

Sheng Zhiyao shrugged his shoulders: "So I'm not afraid of them at all, is the competition a characteristic of Xichu?"

"Well, they like to crush their opponents with their strength, which also leads to the superior combat effectiveness of Western Chu's cavalry, and they believe that only the strong are qualified to speak."

Sheng Zhiyao nodded thoughtfully, suddenly thought of something, raised his eyes and asked Feng Yuanchen, "What are they going to compare this time?"

"Two wins in three games, decided by lot."

"Oh, I see." Sheng Zhiyao nodded, indicating that he remembered, but did not continue to ask.

It seems that she has already guessed what the project will be.

"Then let's go eat now, starve to death." Sheng Zhiyao stretched her waist and looked exhausted.

"yes, okay."

The two walked out of the inn together and walked all the way to the restaurant.

Feng Yuanchen followed next to Sheng Zhiyao, all his attention was on her.

They walked a few streets and finally reached the door of the restaurant.

As soon as I stepped into the lobby, I heard someone shouting, "Ouch! Guest officer, please be blessed today, we have launched several new delicacies in our store, which are definitely worth trying."

"That's a good dare, let's have four plates!"

After that, Sheng Zhiyao and Feng Yuanchen walked into the private room and sat down, waiting for the dishes to be served.

At this time, the shopkeeper came in with a pot of tea.

"Girl, this is a new tea, and you won't forget it once you drink it."

Sheng Zhiyao looked at the shopkeeper, and then at Feng Yuanchen: "Then let's taste it and see if it's as amazing as you said."

"Okay." The shopkeeper exits the room.

Sheng Zhiyao picked up the teacup and slowly poured it into the celadon teacup, and the fragrance of tea overflowed the rim of the cup, refreshing people's hearts.

Sheng Zhiyao took a deep breath, closed her eyes and savored it, opened her eyes for a moment, and exclaimed, "Good tea!"

"Well, it's delicious." Feng Yuanchen casually picked up the teacup and took a sip, feeling the mellow aroma in it, and was amazed.

"But it's just ordinary tea! How do you call it new tea?"

Sheng Zhiyao tilted his head to look at him, his eyes were shining, with anticipation, as if he was waiting for him to answer.

Feng Yuanchen was silent for a long time before he slowly said a sentence: "Well, do you want to taste the ordinary tea of Xichu first?"

"Huh?" Sheng Zhiyao didn't know why.

"Although the Western Chu Kingdom is small, the people's eating habits are sweet, and the ordinary tea here is also sweetened in the tea."

Hearing him say this, Sheng Zhiyao realized that the tea in Xichu was very different from Shang Zhou's.

"Also, this kind of new tea should also be the trade that this shopkeeper spent a lot of money to take from Shang Zhou!"

With that, he raised his lips and smiled, and there was a faint arrogance between his handsome eyebrows, as if he disdained to make deals with these merchants.

Sheng Zhiyao opened her mouth in surprise and didn't close it for a long time: "You even counted this kind of detail?"

Feng Yuanchen smiled modestly: "It's not enough to worry about, it's just a little bit of a superficial understanding."

"Then since Shang Zhou has something that Xi Chu doesn't have, then Xi Chu should also have something that we Shang Zhou don't have, right? How else would trade be formed?"

Feng Yuanchen frowned slightly, pondered carefully for a moment before answering, "There is indeed something in Western Chu that we don't have in Shangzhou, and it's expensive."

"What do you mean?" Sheng Zhiyao was puzzled.

Feng Yuanchen lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment before he said slowly: "Xichu is rich in mineral veins and rich in all kinds of gemstones, so you will find that the houses here in Xichu are colorful and luxuriously decorated, but in Shangzhou, they are rare, and most of the gems are paid tribute to the palace, except for a few dignitaries in the capital who can afford it, it is estimated that no one can afford it."

"You mean......" Sheng Zhiyao's eyes widened suddenly, "The gems here are sold to Shang Zhou in exchange for gold, silver and jewelry, and we are just selling some daily necessities such as tea?"
