Que'er walked into the room, came behind Zhen Jiang, took a look at the lady who looked like a fairy in her glasses, pursed her lips and smiled, "Miss, Mr. Wang personally came to invite the lady to go to Xiaoxiang Tower."

Zhen Jiang came back to her senses and frowned slightly, "Go and tell Mr. Wang that I feel unwell today and don't want to go out."

"Young Master Wang will definitely be very disappointed!"

Zhen Jiang turned around, glared at Que'er, and said angrily: "Why are you chewing your tongue? Why don't you go quickly?"

"Oh." Que'er responded and prepared to reply.

"Wait a minute." Zhen Jiang suddenly stopped her.

Que'er turned around and said, "Miss, do you have any other instructions?"

Zhen Jiang stood up and walked towards Que'er with a thoughtful look on his face. He glanced at Que'er and said, "Go and tell Prince Wang and tell him to wait a moment. I'll be here soon." Que'er showed displeasure.

He looked confused and said, "Miss, didn't you mean...?" Seeing the young lady coming over with a glare, he couldn't help but stick out his tongue and quickly replied.

Zhen Jiang returned to the dressing mirror and began to dress up carefully.

Wang Duo had been waiting in the hall for almost half an hour, and he was already a little impatient. At this moment, there was a crisp sound of a ring outside the door, and he unconsciously looked towards the door. At this sight, Wang Duo was stunned. He

She saw Zhen Jiang walking in accompanied by Que'er. Zhen Jiang was dressed in lavender palace clothes. Her hair was shawl, and a hairpin inlaid with gold leaves was inserted into her bun. Her brows were lightly swept, she applied a thin layer of powder, and her lips were red.

, at this moment, Zhen Jiang changed from her usual plain attire and looked extremely gorgeous, dazzling and eye-catching, like a concubine and a fairy.

Seeing Wang Duo staring at her fiercely, Zhen Jiang felt slightly unhappy and frowned.

Que'er said angrily: "Master Wang, why are you staring at my young lady like that?"

Wang Duo came back to his senses, clasped his fists and said: "I, I am really a beautiful girl!" Then he thought to himself: Miss Zhen is such a beautiful woman! If I can win her heart, my life will be worth it!

Zhen Jiang said calmly: "Master Wang, can we leave?"

"Of course! Miss please!" Wang Duo looked gentle and polite.

Zhen Jiang walked outside, followed closely by Wang Duo, who looked at her beautiful back with a mesmerized expression.

The three people walked out of the gate. At this time, two carriages and dozens of guards were waiting at the gate. The three people boarded two carriages respectively, and then, supported by the guards, the carriages headed towards Xiaoxiang Tower.

Zhuque Street was heavily guarded and very quiet. There were no other pedestrians except their group.

Coming out of Zhuque Street is South Avenue, where merchants gather. In the past, this place was always bustling with people, but now it looks particularly deserted. There are only a few pedestrians in a hurry, and from time to time, a group of fully armed soldiers pass by the carriage.

.

Que'er lowered the curtains and said with an annoyed look on his face: "Those thieves are so abominable! They make it impossible for everyone to live a good life!"

Zhen Jiang said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense! They are not thieves!"

Que'er asked in confusion: "Why did the lady say that?"

Zhen Jiang didn't answer. Que'er felt bored and closed her mouth.

A group of people came outside Xiaoxiang Tower. Wang Duo jumped out of the car in a hurry, ran to the carriage behind, and opened the curtain. Que'er walked out first, saw Wang Duo, smiled, and held his hand to dance.

After getting off the carriage, Wang Duo then reached out to Zhen Jiang and wanted to help Zhen Jiang get out of the carriage. However, Zhen Jiang only supported Que'er's hand to get out of the carriage. Wang Duo's hospitality was in vain and he couldn't help but be very disappointed.

The deacon of Xiaoxiang Tower came up to him, smiled and clasped his fists and said, "I have met Mr. Wang, Miss Zhen." This deacon was not the same person as the deacon that day. There were ten deacons in Xiaoxiang Tower, and there were always three to four deacons there.

Responsible for handling various affairs in Xiaoxiang Building. The deacon in front of me is named Tong Baiye. He is a fat man in his forties, and he gives people a very shrewd impression.

Zhen Jiang nodded slightly.

Wang Duo asked: "Old boy, take us to the Zhenbao Pavilion quickly."

Tong Baiye smiled slightly and said, "Master Wang, Miss Zhen, please come with me." He then led the two of them through the lobby and onto a gallery on the left.

Zhen Jiang couldn't help but look towards the corridor on the right, as if he was looking for someone.

Tong Baiye led several people out of the gallery, walked through a beautiful garden, and walked into a heavily guarded wooden building. This wooden building is located on the west side of Xiaoxiang Building. It has five floors and is very tall. It is hidden among a field of green pines and cypresses.

Among them. There is a plaque hanging on the eaves of the first floor of the wooden building, "Jianbao Pavilion". It turns out that this is the place in Xiaoxiang Building that specializes in selling various treasures and antiques. Here, you can find coral pearls from the East China Sea and see them.

You can see gold vessels from the legendary Qin Kingdom in the West, you can appreciate the Zhou Dynasty bronze tripod thousands of years ago, and you can buy precious spices that are only produced in the wild lands of the south.

Everything here is extremely precious. It is difficult to see anything outside, but here you can find everything.

Wang Duo diligently introduced the rare treasures to Zhen Jiang and carefully observed Zhen Jiang's expression. However, to Wang Duo's disappointment, Zhen Jiang's expression was always dull, as if these rare treasures and antiques were in front of him.

They were all like scrap metal. Compared to Zhen Jiang's indifference, Que'er was completely dumbfounded. The rare treasures in front of her made her feel as if she was in a dream.

Zhen Jiang stopped and asked Tong Baiye: "Uncle Tong, my stomach is a little uncomfortable, I don't know..."

Tong Baiye understood, and quickly summoned a maid and ordered: "Take the young lady to the toilet! I'm waiting for you!" "No." The maid promised softly, and led Master Zhen Jiang and her maidservant away.

As soon as Zhen Jiang left, Wang Duo lost his previous enthusiasm and felt dull. Tong Baiye asked Wang Duo to sit down at a small table, and the two chatted without a word.

Master Zhen Jiang and his maidservant followed the maid out of the Treasure Pavilion and walked along the flower path towards a wooden building not far away. Zhen Jiang deliberately slowed down and asked seemingly casually: "I was in front just now

I saw an extraordinary young master, who is he? What are he doing here?" Zhen Jiang saw some young master somewhere! She was actually deceiving the maid. Que'er looked puzzled.

However, the maid seemed to know who Zhen Jiang was talking about, and replied respectfully: "I don't know the name of that young master. The young master rented a courtyard, and spent every day wandering around except drinking."

Zhen Jiang was secretly happy and asked calmly: "Which courtyard has he reserved?"

"No. 9, Bamboo Garden."

Zhen Jiang made a note of it secretly, and then walked quickly towards the toilet.

After a while, Zhen Jiang came out of the toilet and said to the maid waiting outside: "Go back and tell the prince that I will go back beforehand."

The maid promised, turned and left.
