A moment later, his eyes lit up, as if he had suddenly come up with an idea: "I've got it! Come with me, Your Highness."

After saying that, he grabbed Shen Jintang's hand and quickened his pace, walking in a certain direction.

Shen Jintang could only hurry to catch up, her mind filled with doubt. Where was he going to take her?

In the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the two arrived at Luoshangfang, the most bustling commercial district in Kyoto.

This is Kyoto's clothing paradise, overflowing with a dazzling array of goods, from the finest fabrics to exquisite garments. Every item that flows out of here is incredibly valuable; a single bolt of cloth or a single garment can be equivalent to an average family's annual expenses.

But Gu Zhixing had no shortage of money; things that could be solved with money were not difficult at all.

"Oh! Your Highness, the Crown Prince, is an honor to grace our humble establishment with your presence! We are truly sorry for not being able to welcome you properly!"

Gu Zhixing was clearly a regular customer. The shopkeeper's wrinkled face broke into a wide smile as soon as he saw him, and he wished he could treat Gu Zhixing like a god of wealth.

The shopkeeper recognized Gu Zhixing at a glance, and his wrinkled old face instantly broke into a wide smile, as if he wanted to worship Gu Zhixing as a god of wealth.

"Pick out a few suitable clothes for her." Gu Zhixing pointed to Shen Jintang, then led her to sit down and leisurely drank tea.

"Me?" Shen Jintang asked, quite surprised.

Gu Zhixing nodded slightly, his tone calm but with a hint of seriousness: "Pick a few clothes to wear for now. When the foreign countries send tribute during the New Year, I will help you choose some good fabrics and make a few decent new clothes."

"But why did Your Highness buy me new clothes?" Shen Jintang was quite stubborn.

"Because I see you're unhappy." Gu Zhixing raised his head, looked at her seriously, and said slowly, "When I'm unhappy, I like to spend money. Once I've spent the money, I'm happy."

"If you're still unhappy, it must be because you haven't spent enough money."

He smiled slightly, his tone carrying a hint of teasing.
