The owner of the jewelry stall was a man, and he didn't know what to say when he saw him with a restrained face, his hands pinching the corners of his clothes.

But seeing that Xiao Musheng picked carefully, he still mustered up the courage and said, "Childe, do you want to see these peach hairpins?" Although it is not fine, it is also carefully carved by Xiaosheng. ”

When Xiao Musheng heard this, he looked at the pile of peach hairpins, and then looked at it, and took out a wooden hairpin with a tip shaped like auspicious clouds and beautiful jade.

He held the hairpin with both hands, stroked it back and forth twice with the fingers of his left hand, it was quite smooth and delicate, and he immediately said with satisfaction: "Little brother, how to sell this hairpin?" ”

"Well," the stall owner thought for a moment, then stretched out two fingers, and finally said, "Twenty copper plates!" ”

It was also the first time he came out to support the stall today, and he was already ready for no one to patronize him, but he didn't expect that someone would come to buy it so early, and even this price was what he just thought.

"What about this wooden box?" As he spoke, Xiao Musheng picked up a well-made wooden box next to the wooden hairpin, which was just the right size to hold the wooden hairpin.

The stall owner scratched his head and said, "If the son likes it, just take it away, this is a good start, I want to be auspicious." ”

Xiao Musheng thought for a few breaths, then took out thirty copper plates, put them on the stall, and said, "Then I wish the little brother a prosperous business." ”

Without waiting for the stall owner to speak, he turned and left......

Xiao Musheng put the hairpin into the wooden box, and thought as he walked: He came out today to prepare a gift for this banquet in Xie Mansion, but he only chose a peach hairpin that was difficult to give for a long time.

Just thinking about it, Chen Ce and Lu He walked towards each other, and the two laughed and talked, as if they had already chosen their favorite gifts.

"Ziqing, have you made your choice?" Chen Ce stepped forward and asked while glancing at Xiao Musheng's hands.

Xiao Musheng nodded, hid the wooden box behind him, and said, "It's chosen, let's go directly to Xie Mansion!" ”

"Then again, Brother Yan Chu, is he really not going?" Lu He frowned slightly, and he didn't understand the reason for it for a while.

Xiao Musheng replied: "If you say that the first gentleman will not go, if you don't go, you won't go, as for the reason...... Probably because there is something important to deal with at home. ”

Of course, another reason is that the Xuanping Marquis Mansion is deliberately avoiding suspicion and does not want to deal with the Xie family.

Thinking of the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, Xiao Musheng felt a headache: in his previous life, the third prince tried to win over the Xuanping Marquis Mansion several times, but later he didn't know what he wanted, and because of this, he confronted Wen Xu many times.

In this life, he had to figure out as soon as possible, why did the Xuanping Marquis Mansion suddenly decide to side with the three princes?

Thus preventing cooperation between the two.

Lu He didn't know about the battle between the upper echelons, so he didn't ask any more, and Chen Ce had a lot of knowledge since he was a child, and he also guessed what Xiao Musheng didn't finish, and even guessed what he didn't say.

He thought for a few breaths, and finally sighed, shook the fan lightly, and said with emotion: "I don't think until the palace test is completed, I will really step into that battlefield." ”

"Maybe you can't wait for the temple test......"

At least from the moment he set foot in Shengjing, he was targeted.

Speaking of this, Xiao Musheng looked at Chen Ce and suddenly asked, "Hengzhi, if someone finds you in the future, how will you choose?" ”

"Choice? Why should I choose? Chen Ce couldn't help but smile and said: "I'm just an ordinary student, I just want to be named on the gold list, eat and wear without worry, glorify my ancestors, and be a good official for the country and the people...... What do I have to do with the strife of the side? ”
