Zhang Xuan was worried about it. In less than a quarter of an hour, Yang Jier bought a fairy candy man, a double-eared rattle, a large pottery basin for fighting crickets, four green generals, a green grasshopper in a straw cage, and four ducklings in a wooden cage.

The money was naturally paid by Zhang Xuan, and the things were naturally taken by him. Yang Ji'er was in high spirits and jumped in front of her. The fairy's head had been licked off by her. The next step was to attack the candy man's arm.

Licking the sweet maltose, but his big black eyes refused to let go of all the novelties around him.

"Big brother, what does that sell?" Yang Jier asked with a smile at a shop.

Zhang Xuan glanced at the name of the store above. The big white sign clearly wrote five words "Fangji Candy Shop" in black.

Zhang Xuan didn't know what to say to her, so she asked knowingly, didn't she just want to go in? Zhang Xuan was too lazy to care about her, so she said listlessly: "The same thing as yours."

"Then let's go and have a look! I heard about this shop several years ago, it's very famous."

It was clearly a new store that opened a month ago, but she insisted on saying that she had heard about it several years ago, and how vicissitudes of her life were.

"Whatever you want!"

Zhang Xuan touched his inner bag. He left in a hurry today and forgot to bring the money. He only had less than a hundred cents left on his body, which really made him a little worried.

There are various kinds of candy confections in the store, made of maltose or honey, and placed in exquisite small boxes. Zhang Xuan was shocked. Each candy box costs more than a hundred cents, and he couldn't afford a box.

"Jil, let's go to another store first! Come here again."

But Yang Ji'er's eyes had already shined, and she wanted everything. At this time, the shopkeeper saw Zhang Xuan's embarrassment and whispered: "Young Master can take credit, but you need a guarantee or a mortgage."

Zhang Xuan was afraid that Yang Ji'er would hear it, so he took off his guard's waist sign and whispered: "Can you use it to guarantee it?"

The shopkeeper was so scared that he waved his hand repeatedly, "We dare not accept this, you should mortgage something else! Let me explain first, we will not accept weapons."

"Can this be mortgaged?"

Yang Jier pulled out a jade hairpin from the beginning and handed it to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper was shocked when he took it. He was a person who knew the goods. This was the best jasper chalcedony, with two diamonds the size of a little finger on it, which was worth at least hundreds of gold. The shopkeeper's eyes were glowing, and even if he sold his entire store, he could not match the jade hairpin.

Zhang Xuan felt very embarrassed. How could he let this little girl take the hairpin to mortgage it? He was about to object, but suddenly stretched out a hand next to him and grabbed the jade hairpin.

The hand came too suddenly, which scared the shopkeeper and Yang Ji'er. When Yang Ji'er turned around, she saw a young woman in a black dress and red edge standing behind her. Her skin was as snowy as she was, and she was very beautiful. She was holding her own jade hairpin in her hand, but her eyes were smiling at Zhang Xuan.

"Why are you?"

Zhang Xuan recognized her, met her in Wuchuan Mansion, and also met her in the Yang Family Martial Arts Hall, and now she has met her again. Is it just a coincidence?

When Zhang Xuan thought of her Fire Phoenix identity, he couldn't help but hold the handle of the knife and watch her every move vigilantly. However, after a second thought, he felt relieved. Wuchuan Mansion was not as brave as the Great Sui Princess.

Zhang Chuchen snorted disdainfully, she squatted down and put the jade hairpin back on Yang Jier's hairpin, and said with a smile: "What do you like, choose whatever you like, and I will buy it for you, sister!"

"You know each other?"

Yang Jier looked at Zhang Chuchen curiously, then looked at Zhang Xuan, and Zhang Xuan also snorted in response, as if he had agreed that they knew each other.

Yang Jier suddenly became happy. Zhang Chuchen's beauty made her feel good. The elder sister was willing to buy her candy confectionery, so she certainly couldn't ask for it. She quickly picked up a basket and started to choose the candy confectionery she liked.

At this time, Zhang Chuchen whispered to Zhang Xuan: "There are all chaos outside, why don't you send her back!"

Zhang Xuan nodded, "Thank you for spending money!"

"You don't have to thank me, I don't mean to help you. Wanbao Jinlou is the property of Wuchuan Prefecture. If something happens to her, we can't afford it. There are already six groups of Xuanwu Fire Phoenixes coming out. I just happened to see you."

Zhang Xuan then realized that no wonder she appeared here. It turned out that Wanbao Jinlou was an industry in Wuchuan Prefecture.

"Sister, I've chosen it!"

Yang Ji'er picked more than a dozen boxes of candy confectionery, and she handed them to Zhang Chuchen a little embarrassedly. Zhang Chuchen paid the shopkeeper and gathered her hair together and smiled: "Stop being naughty anymore, go back quickly!"

"Um!"

Yang Jier nodded with satisfaction, and she asked again: "Sister, what's your name?"

Zhang Xuan felt a little uncomfortable on the side. She served the little girl in front of her, but she didn't ask what her name was.

Zhang Chuchen looked at Zhang Xuan and smiled and said, "My surname is Zhang too!"

She thought about it, took out a small golden flower and handed it to Yang Ji'er, "If you want to find me in the future, just go to Wanbao Jinlou to leave a letter. Show them the golden flower, and they will know that they are looking for me."

"Thank you sister!" Yang Jier happily accepted the golden flower.

Zhang Chuchen looked at Zhang Xuan coldly again, her eyes turned like cold frost, and she turned around and left quickly.

Zhang Xuan watched her walk away. He felt that when the woman in black dress looked at him for the last time, her eyes were filled with murderous intent, as if she had a deep blood hatred with her. Could it be that she failed when she hunted Yang Xuangan?

"Big brother, let's go back!"

Yang Ji'er shook Zhang Xuan's hand gently. Zhang Xuan took back his thoughts, picked up the basket for her and asked with a smile: "Why are you thinking about going back?"

"Hey! You have no money, what's the point of shopping?"

Zhang Xuan was so choked that he couldn't say a word. He discovered a truth that seemed to have a commonality between women regardless of age.

The escape of the little princess Yang Jier did not cause much storm in the end.

On the one hand, although Wuchuan Prefecture took action, sent six groups of Xuanwu Huofeng to block the exits of the gates in Xicheng City. Wuchuan Prefecture was unwilling to be proud of it. On the other hand, it was because Yang Jier often fled, so everyone was more or less accustomed to it.

However, the responsibility must be clear. No one is willing to admit that he was dereliction of duty. After a debate, the palace maids, eunuchs and guards around the little princess quickly reached a consensus.

This matter has nothing to do with them. It was because the people from the Yan Prince's Mansion were not well protected, so all the responsibilities were put on Zhang Xuan, the only representative of the Yan Prince's Mansion.

After Zhang Xuan sent Yang Ji'er back to Wanbao Jin Building, he was immediately deprived of his guard qualifications. The leader guard was polite and tough. He didn't need to bother with the princess, and he could go back to the Yan Prince's Mansion.

At night, Zhang Xuan was sitting in front of the window practicing writing. He practiced his brushes for a few days when he was a child, but later he threw them away. He never thought he would pick them up one day.

What made him even more accustomed was that he learned simplified Chinese characters. Although most of the characters in the Sui Dynasty could be known, it was another matter to be able to write. He felt that he had become a primary school student again and started from the most basic writing.

Zhang Xuan struggled to write. He only took two pages of paper in an hour. He put down his pen and rubbed his slightly sore wrists. This was even more difficult than practicing a knife.

At this time, he saw Qian Jingzhong, the head of the royal palace, hurried over through the gap in the window, clearly walking towards his room. Zhang Xuan was stunned. What did he do for himself? Could it be?

"Please open the door if Guard Zhang!"

The knock on the door was very heavy and very urgent. Zhang Xuan got up and opened the door, and asked with a smile: "Is there anything wrong with Mr. Qian?"

"There is something important!"

Qian Jingzhong whispered to him a few words, and Zhang Xuan nodded. As he expected, it was for the matter this afternoon.

"I know, let's go now!"

He put on his outer robe and followed Qian Jingzhong toward the gate. Qian Jingzhong was very surprised. He didn't know what had happened, but the Empress wanted to summon Zhang Xuan. It was already dark now. He wanted to ask, but he didn't dare to ask, so he had to walk quickly with his head down.

A light carriage was parked outside the gate, and more than a dozen guards followed on both sides of the carriage. As soon as Zhang Xuan came out, a guard stepped forward and said, "Is it the guard Zhang Xuan?"

“That’s right!”

"Please come with us! Please get in the car."

Zhang Xuan did not ask much, and boarded the carriage. The carriage quickly drove towards Guangzhaimen. Although the gate of the palace was closed at this time, it was a special situation for Zhang Xuan to meet him. He still entered the palace and drove in one deep gate after another. The roads of the palace became narrower and denser and buildings became denser.

Finally, he got off the carriage and walked into the side door of a palace. Zhang Xuan didn't know where he was, which palace? Which palace? But one thing was undoubtedly that he had entered the harem of the Great Sui Palace, where the concubines lived.

He walked through the empty and cold hall and came to a gate. Eight guards stood at the gate. Just like a routine, the two guards searched Zhang Xuan without saying a word, and then said to Zhang Xuan: "Please come in!"

No matter which dynasty, being summoned by the queen is a big deal. At least a few days of preparation must be prepared in advance, learning etiquette, taking a bath, changing clothes, and even divining the good and bad.

But when Zhang Xuan came, everything was spared. This was actually the difference between official and private matters. Empress Xiao just met him privately and did not need too much elaborate.

If Zhang Xuan was a little nervous at the beginning, his nervous mood had calmed down at this time, he took a deep breath and strode into the inner hall.

The inner hall is brightly lit, and the area is not large compared to the outer hall, only more than 200 square meters. It is divided into two steps into two parts, front and back. A huge screen is placed on the steps, blocking the situation inside. Two veils and tassels fall from the roof, and a palace maid stands on each side.

Through the faint screen, Zhang Xuan could vaguely see a tall woman paced back and forth in the screen. He recognized the shadow at a glance, which was the Queen Xiao he saw in the morning.

Zhang Xuan hurriedly stepped forward and knelt on one knee, "My minister Zhang Xuan greeted the Queen!"
