When the shopkeeper heard Shen Zhao's words, his face looked unnatural, and he was also a little anxious, fearing that Su Ningxin would stop buying Bu Yao because of this stone.
Su Ningxin glanced at Shen Zhao sideways. Although there was no expression on her face, she was roaring in her heart.
[Hurry up and put it down, put it down for the old paper! Can you afford to pay for it if it breaks? I still want to go home, woo woo woo.]
Unfortunately, at this time, Chu Jihan's eyes were also focused on the stone in Shen Zhao's hand along with everyone else, and he did not look at Su Ningxin, so naturally he did not hear her thoughts.
Shen Zhao casually put the jade stone back on the table, "Shopkeeper, isn't it a good idea for you to do this?"
"Yes, yes, Prince Shen is right, I..." The shopkeeper was racking his brains to think of remedial measures, but Su Ningxin came to his rescue at this moment.
"It's okay. It's a small gift as a gift. If it's too expensive, the shopkeeper will have to pay for it. Let's just take this piece."
As Su Ningxin said this, she gave Shuangbai a look, and Shuangbai took out one thousand five hundred taels of silver notes from her arms and handed it to the shopkeeper.
Shen Zhao didn't say anything else, but raised his eyebrows in confusion. He remembered that although he was a concubine who was taciturn and had a low sense of presence, she was still quite shrewd. Why has she become a bit stupid now
But Shen Zhao soon found a reason. After all, Shen Qing was a concubine in the palace and had a social background, so naturally she was not willing to worry about such a small amount of money.
If Su Ningxin knew what he was thinking, she would definitely sneer. Shen Zhao really underestimated her. She could clearly calculate even a few taels of silver, let alone a few hundred taels of silver. She didn't care about it just to show that she was The cost is far less than the gain.
Su Ningxin took the jewelry wrapped by the shopkeeper and thought to herself, "I have done everything I can, and then I can only pray that the result will be as expected. If it is really the piece of consonance, I will make a lot of money."]
Chu Jihan listened to what Su Ningxin was thinking, but didn't think much about it. Instead, he hurriedly stepped forward and got close.
"Brother, you are so righteous. You have given me your love but you don't want me to repay you. I feel sorry for you after all. This is Chu Jihan, the eldest son of Prince Anjun. May I ask my brother what his name is and where he is from? Just treat it as acquaintance. A friend."
Su Ningxin looked at him for a moment, then smiled apologetically, "I'm just a wanderer in the world, and I don't dare to reach out to the Crown Prince. Besides, I'm about to leave the capital. If we are destined to meet the Crown Prince again, I will definitely meet him then. It would be in vain to have a drink with the Crown Prince and exchange names without chance."
After saying that, Su Ningxin hugged Chu Jihan like a Jianghu person, thinking to herself, [Wasn't the lesson learned last time enough? You must not get too close to Chu Jihan this time, otherwise all your efforts will be in vain and a vest will explode.]
Chu Jihan's doubts became more serious. If he hadn't been sure that his memory was complete, he would have doubted whether he had lost his memory.
He had indeed only met the man in front of him once in Xingyuan Mansion, and had only spoken a few words, but from what he was thinking, he seemed to be very familiar with him, and it seemed that he had brought him some trouble
And what exploded a vest? What does this mean, and what does it have to do with vests.
While Chu Jihan was wondering and thinking, Su Ningxin had already taken the opportunity to slip out of the silver building. When Chu Jihan came to his senses, she had already disappeared. Chu Jihan wanted to go into the palace to see the emperor, so he didn't go. Find Su Ningxin.
After leaving the street of Yinlou, Su Ningxin stopped and turned to look at Shen Zhao who was following him step by step, "Prince Shen, don't you have anything of your own to do? How long do you have to follow?"
Shen Zhao pretended not to understand, "I am indeed very leisurely. I don't have much to do. Aren't all the playboys in the capital like this?"
"Are you a dandy? Can the guard commander of Shenji Battalion also be called a dandy?" Su Ningxin asked in return.
Su Ningxin was stunned when she asked this question. She had known Shen Zhao's position before. Uncle Taiping's mansion did not have much background or connections. Shen Zhao also climbed up to this position step by step, so she had not paid attention to it before. think.
But now that I think about it, Shen Zhao doesn't seem to be that simple. The Shenji Camp, a firearms barracks built by the Queen with modern technology, is the biggest weapon against the fierce Dayong cavalry in the north. It can be said to be the emperor's biggest trump card.
In such an important place, even if the guard commander is only in charge of a group of Shenji Battalion soldiers, the emperor would never trust it to be left in the hands of outsiders. Therefore, Shen Zhao is definitely someone under the emperor, but he doesn't know how close he is.
Su Ningxin stared at Shen Zhao's face, which made Shen Zhao feel a little uncomfortable. Then Su Ningxin suddenly said, "Did he ask you to come?"
"What? Who?" Shen Zhao asked pretending to be stupid.
"There's no need to pretend. You can go back and tell him that I took away everything I deserved when I left. We are already settled. Instead of worrying about how I am doing, you should pay more attention to the Queen."
Su Ningxin took a deep look at Shen Zhao, "By the way, let me ask him, doesn't he know that I have a grudge against Uncle Taiping's Mansion? I'm already kind and generous by not taking revenge. Now let the people from Uncle Taiping's Mansion be in front of me. Huangyou, are you here to cause trouble for me?"
Shen Zhao looked at Su Ningxin and moved his lips to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything. He could only watch Su Ningxin turn around and leave decisively.
Su Ningxin's words could not be said to be heartbreaking. In this era where family, blood relationship, and inheritance were emphasized, she was directly severing the already meager family ties and undeniable blood relationship between herself and the Xuanning Marquis.
In fact, she didn't have any bad feelings towards Shen Zhao, and she even felt that he was a good brother because of their interactions in the previous life.
But now her identity is different, and it is not wise to get involved with Shen Zhao. If Shen Zhao just wants to get along with her as a friend, then she is indispensable, but if Shen Zhao wants to get along with her as a subordinate of the emperor, She would never allow him to appear next to her.
She left the palace in the first place because she didn't want to have anything to do with the emperor, let alone get involved in the affairs between the emperor and the empress. Maybe the emperor and empress were confused by the authorities, but Su Ningxin, a bystander, could clearly see the problems between them. Sooner or later it will break out.
The root of the problem is that the two people come from different eras and have incompatible but unchangeable concepts. It is that the two people overestimated their ability to fight against the world. The problem has always existed latently. Maybe the two of them realized that the world between two people There were conflicts, so the harem was dismissed, but unfortunately this method failed.
When a conflict breaks out between two people, and there is someone from the emperor beside her, her identity will be easily exposed, and the following events will be beyond her control. Officials, people, public opinion, public opinion, etc. It might put her to death, and Su Ningxin didn't want to be used as cannon fodder in other people's wars.
