To outsiders, their behavior looks like lovers murmuring.
Wu Sheyue directly denied it, "Really not yet."
"Come on." Shen Yanhuan simply didn't believe it, "You immediately thought of how to help me catch the traitor~ This little thing is not something you just thought of casually."
Wu Sheyue hesitated, "I have some ideas, but there is something missing, so..."
"What do you want? You can use what I have here."
"Okay, can you lend me a pound or two of Night Pearl?" She had been holding back her thoughts at the dinner table, but now she finally spoke. It was really embarrassing to ask someone for something for the first time.
Shen Yanhuan had a bright smile on her face and asked her repeatedly: "Well? What did you say? Say it again?"
"One or two pounds of night pearls. It doesn't have to be of good quality, just the worst kind." Wu Sheyue was a little embarrassed. Although the two of them were sympathetic to each other, asking for something from someone they had just met once... was she too much? Is it familiar
"Sister, you are my sister. You don't even ask me if I have this thing, but you just open your mouth and ask me for two pounds?" Shen Yanhuan didn't know whether to laugh or get angry, "Do you think the Night Pearl is a pebble?"
"Is it very rare?" Wu Sheyue frowned, "To put it bluntly, the Night Pearl is just a mineral stone. Like jade, it should be divided into grades. There are few good ones, but there must be many defective ones! Can you give me some rough stones or Just defective ones—I’ll pay you back later.”
Wu Sheyue rubbed her temples and tried hard to recall the knowledge that she had almost forgotten. That's right... The main components of Luminous Pearl are calcium difluoride and arsenic sulfide. This component is not uncommon. There must be original stones.
"Well..." Shen Yanhua touched her chin and thought for a while, and suddenly her eyes lit up, "Let's go to a jewelry store. The jewelry store will definitely accept all kinds of rough stones. Although luminous rough stones are expensive, they are not as valuable as luminous pearls. Price has no market value.”
"Yes, you can ask about the pawn shop too." When Wu Sheyue mentioned the pawn shop, she suddenly thought of Yu Jing. She quickly gave up the idea. Who knew whether Yu Jing was trustworthy or not? Don't get involved with that kind of person.
"Let's go. There are two stores under my house. If there is a luminous rough stone, you can take it first. Don't worry about money." Shen Yanhuan said, pulling Wu Sheyue forward and continued walking.

Not far behind them, there were three women looking at them.
One of them was Zhao Mo'er, and accompanying her were Zhang Chunwan, a girl who was also a councilor of the Department of General Affairs of the fifth rank, and Xiao Ruo, a daughter of a fourth-rank cabinet bachelor.
These people are all playmates with similar family backgrounds, and they often meet up to play together.
Zhang Shunwan held a jewelry box in her hand and said to the other two in great surprise: "Hey, that... is it really Wu Sheyue?"
Zhao Moer smiled and said, "It should be her." As soon as she entered Hongfeng Tavern, she looked like Wu Sheyue, but she didn't expect that it was really Wu Sheyue drinking with a man in private.
And the behavior is so close, it must be an unusual relationship...
"Who do you think that man is?" Xiao Ruo's eyes were fixed on Shen Yanhuan and she couldn't move away. She felt that this man was really handsome~
Zhao Mo'er shook his head regretfully, "I can't see his face, but he is definitely not the son of a high-ranking official or aristocrat. Maybe... he is from a small family, or a bastard from some family." That's a good match.
Zhang Xuanwan curled her lips and said displeasedly: "Tsk, tsk, the Prime Minister's Mansion held a birthday banquet a few days ago. Didn't she shamelessly take away the young prince's personal belongings? Then do this to others again?"
Zhao Moer smiled even more proudly, "She is not worthy of the young prince."
"I know~" Zhang Shuwan sighed. There are many people who admire the young prince, but no one can really get it. "I... I mean she misses a lot. She is really wanton."
Zhao Moer touched his chin thoughtfully. It would be fun if he told Wu Jinghua about this~
Xiao Ruo had some displeasure on his face, and waved his hands repeatedly: "Let's go, let's do it, what do you do with so many people? People will say, 'I earned the little prince's things, it has nothing to do with me hooking up with other young masters'~ So don't Take care~"
"makes sense."

Royal Palace.
Yu Jing sat behind the desk, his eyes closed tightly, and his sharp eyebrows frowned slightly. His fingers tapped silently on the table.
After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes, stood up and walked out of the room.
Ah Li hurried into the courtyard and met Yu Jing face to face. Yu Jing ignored A Li and walked quickly past him.
Ah Li turned around and chased after him, asking, "Master, do you want to go out?"
"kindness."
Although his master looked very irritable, A Li still persisted in taking out the letter from his arms and chased after it: "Master, there are new developments on Princess Wumeng's side."
Yu Jing finally stopped and said, "Let me take a look."
He took the letter from A Li and unfolded it. There were only two simple lines on it. However, he read these two lines for a long time.
Ah Li didn't know what was written in the letter and felt a little uneasy. The master has always been a person with ideas. It is rare to see the master so worried and anxious. Could it be that something serious has happened
After a while, Yu Jing calmly folded the letter and put it into an envelope, and ordered: "Send all the people from Hayate to her."
Ah Li was stunned and sent them all? "But, what should I do here, Master? The prince has already been here three times, and your place is no better than the princess's place..."
Yu Jing thought for a moment, and suddenly a person flashed in front of his eyes. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "I have a way here, just do it."
"Yes... I understand."
A Li left, and Yu Jing changed his original route and went straight to Prince Han's Mansion.

Throughout the whole day, Wu Sheyue followed Shen Yanhuan and visited almost half of Qinan City. Fortunately, Miss Shen was so angry that she booked a carriage, otherwise Wu Sheyue would have been destroyed.
Today's trip really allowed Wu Sheyue to have a good look at the Bai Fumei family industry in ancient times. The shops under the General's Mansion are really full of shops, covering all walks of life. There are eight high-end luxury jewelry stores, and there are really many fluorescent rough stones.
At Wu Sheyue's request, Shen Yanhuan asked someone to wrap the collected things and send them to the snack shop closest to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
On the way back, Wu Sheyue sat in the carriage and sighed: "Oh my God, your family is so rich! The best thing I did here was to be a hero and save the beauty~ Why am I not a man..."
Shen Yanhuan laughed angrily at her, "You have to deal with it. Prime Minister Wu is considered to be above ten thousand people. Your shop will not be less than mine."
"But I am a concubine, and those things are not mine." Wu Sheyue said this very naturally, with no regrets in her tone or face. (To be continued)
