"What to do? It seems that it can't be avoided. Seeing the three of them getting closer and closer, Jiang Shu turned his head to look at Zhu Changxun beside him.

"Why avoid?" Zhu Changxun pulled the corners of his lips disappreciatively, pulled up her arm, and greeted her generously.

When there were only a few steps left between the two compartments, he stopped, and without waiting for Zhu Changluo to speak, he took the lead in raising his hand towards him and said, "Brother Huang." ”

Zhu Changluo nodded slightly, his eyes fell on Jiang Shu, who was in a green shirt and blue dress beside him, the smile on his face still couldn't be maintained after all, and the tone of his voice also faded a little: "Didn't the third brother go to the household department to help Zhao Shiqing raise the silver taels for the construction of your Luoyang Mansion on the orders of his father, why did he have time to come out?" ”

Since the lotus banquet of the Shouyang Eldest Princess's Mansion passed a few days ago, the streets and alleys of the capital have been rumored, saying that Ye Jiangshu, the fourth lady of Ye Xiangfu, is not as timid and cowardly as rumored, but has courage and knowledge, talent and appearance, and there is almost no one in the entire capital's boudoir circle.

Such an outstanding woman, why is she his future princess Zhu Changxun?

Why has the best been his since he was a child?

Why does the person who cares about him for the first time think that he is not worthy of being compared to him?

Obviously, he is the crown prince, the prince, and the rightful heir to the throne under the ancestral system of "having a descendant and having no heir......

Zhu Changxun naturally heard the coldness in his tone, and at the same time guessed the reason, but because he knew that Jiang Shu didn't want to see him more than he didn't want to see himself, he didn't mind, and said with a restrained expression: "This year, all parts of Huguang have suffered floods, and countless silver grains have been allocated for disaster relief, and taxes are bound to be unable to be collected, plus the military department needs military salaries to support the Liaodong border army to resist the Jianzhou Jurchens, and the cost of building the mansion may not be raised for a while. ”

Did you come out to accompany me to choose a birthday gift?! You came with me when you happened to run into me on the road while you were shopping with someone, okay?

When Jiang Shu heard him say this, he couldn't help but slander.

It's just that in order not to be seen as a joke by Zhu Changluo and others, he didn't say it.

"Although what His Royal Highness King Fu said is reasonable, in the eyes of those who don't know, I am afraid that you will think that you don't want to go to Luoyang to become a vassal domain, so you deliberately delayed." At this time, I only heard Pei Wenzhong, who was next to Zhu Changluo, speak.

"Then I don't know if Pei Zanshan is an informed person or an uninformed person?" Zhu Changxun looked at him sideways, and asked lightly.

"This ......" Pei Wenzhong's words were originally to remind him that as a prince, he should not stay in the capital for a long time, but he didn't expect him to ask such a question, and it was inappropriate to answer that it was not appropriate for someone who did not know, so he had to bite the bullet and say, "Naturally he is a person who knows." ”

"Since Pei Zanshan, the person who watched the fire from the other side, belongs to the people who know, and the officials of the household department are among them, of course, they are even more people who know," Zhu Changxun took two steps forward, looked at him with a light smile and said, "What's more, before this king went to the household department, the household department was supported by Zhao Shiqing, and the temporary departure of this king did not affect the progress of the silver raising." ”

"Mr. Pei, it seems that you lost your words." Zhu Changluo saw that he couldn't get the slightest benefit in words, so in order to save his praise, he coughed lightly and took the initiative to speak out.

Then, his gaze swept over the strip-shaped wooden box in Jiang Shu's hand and fell on her face: "Miss Jiang Shu chose a birthday gift for Mrs. Ye, but I don't know what day the old lady's birthday is?" ”
