Shen Jinchen: "..."
Seeing that she was sulking and not saying anything, Cen Xi remained silent for a while before deciding to leave.
Shen Jinchen watched her leave without saying a word.
After Cen Xi left, Feng Qin saw that he was quite angry, so she kindly said:
“Young master, I have two women I like in a brothel. When I sleep with one in my arms, the other will definitely get jealous and compete for my favor. After I saw through their thoughts, I started to act as if I didn’t care about them at all.”
"Actually, you can let go and let the mistress do as she pleases. You and she have already been intimate, so it's impossible for her not to have feelings for you. Besides, she kept saying she didn't want to marry you, but in the end, she still married you."
"If you don't show that you care about her that much, she will panic. Your love is domineering and forceful, which will make the mistress want to escape. You can visit her less often and give her the necessary care. Over time, she will get used to you, and that will be fine."
"Perhaps the mistress has gotten used to you by now, but the two of you are always at odds when you're together. She doesn't seem to realize it, young master. I think you should learn to hide your love."
This was the first time Feng Qin had ever said so much; seeing the two of them like this, he was truly worried sick.
"You mean if I distance myself from her, she'll care about me? With her personality, how could she possibly care?"
Shen Jinchen clearly didn't believe it and lacked confidence in himself.
"Don't worry, people are just perverse. If you don't care about her and don't hang around in front of her, she'll panic. The mistress has you in her heart. If it weren't for you, she should actually be with Jun Jianchou the most."
Fengqin advised in a tone of someone who had been through it all.
“That makes sense. Jun Jianchou loved him so much, yet he never got her. That means I have a place in her heart. Perhaps I really don’t understand feelings. Oh well, let’s just leave her alone for now.”
Shen Jinchen was extremely intelligent and could grasp things very quickly, but he did encounter many obstacles with Cen Xi. Perhaps, as Feng Qin said, he was holding on too tightly.
After that night, Shen Jinchen never went to see Cen Xi again, but he would still send her anything good he could find.
Cen Xi wondered if her past secret use of contraception might have really offended this person.
Oh right, after being in the capital for so long, she seemed to have forgotten something: bringing Xiaoyu to the capital. Yesterday, Jun Jianchou seemed to have mentioned that people from Feifeng Mountain had all come to the capital, and he had even given her a token.
Thinking of this, Cen Xi quickly took out the token and looked at it. There was also a note attached to it: "If you need anything, go to Zhu Jin Lane, Hui De Pharmacy, and find Uncle Hu."
Cen Xi was delighted to see this; as expected, the Jun Jianchou clan treated him the best.
She needs to go to Zhu Jin Lane tomorrow to ask if Xiao Yu has come to the capital. Now that she is a princess, she should give Xiao Yu the best status and not let others bully her.
As for that brat Liu Jiuyi, with Jun Jianchou watching over her, there's no need to worry.
First, find the little fish, then go out and buy whatever you want. In short, Shen Jinchen's promise cannot be wasted.
The next day, Cen Xi and Qingyi finally went out, and their first stop was naturally the Huide Pharmacy in Zhujin Lane, which Jun Jianchou had mentioned.
She went in and asked the waiter, "Where is Uncle Hu?"
The waiter glanced at her, then silently went into the inner room. After a cup of tea, an elderly man in a blue robe came out to greet Cen Xi.
"Young lady, please show your token."
"Oh, is it this one or this one?"
Cen Xi took out both of Jun Jianchou's tokens and showed them to Uncle Hu.
"Yes, Master. What do you need us for?"
Uncle Hu took a token, looked at it, and said with a smile.
"Where are the people Jun Jianchou brought down from Feifeng Mountain?"
Cen Xi asked.
"They've all been settled in a mountain villa by the young master. Even the thousand men the young master gave to the master, if the master needs any men, I'll immediately go and transfer them over."
“Very well. My princess’s residence has very few people. Only a few of them are sent by the palace. The rest are all the prime minister’s men. It’s really not good. Hmm, send me five hundred men to serve as guards for the princess’s residence.”
Cen Xi thought about it and realized she did need someone, so she agreed.
"Alright, this old servant will take care of it shortly."
Hu Boying replied that when the young master sent him to the capital, he instructed him to recognize the owner of the token as his master, so he naturally had to do his duty.
"Did you bring my daughter, Xiaoyu, here?"
Cen Xi's main purpose was to find Xiao Yu, so after asking about everything above, she started asking about Xiao Yu.
“Young Miss and Ah Xiang have gone traveling the world with Young Master. Master, you don’t need to worry about her. There are many things going on in the capital recently, so it’s fine for Young Miss to stay outside for a while.”
Hu Bo was Jun Jianchou's most trusted person, so he naturally knew who Cen Xi was asking about.
"That's what Jun Jianchou said?"
Cen Xi asked.
"Um!"
Uncle Hu nodded.
Hearing this, Cen Xi saw no need to ask any further questions.
So he said goodbye to him and left, but he lost interest and was no longer interested in squeezing money out of Shen Jinchen.
But he was unwilling to give up without spending the money, so he symbolically visited a few shops, casually pointed to some, and asked them to deliver the items to the princess's residence.
Anyway, she chose to buy the most expensive items. After walking for two hours, having probably visited all the shops in the capital, she returned to the princess's residence with a weary expression.
After Shen Jinchen left the court, he discovered that shopkeepers from all over the capital, from south to north, came to him to settle their accounts.
Shen Jinchen raised an eyebrow, having specifically summoned Fengqin, who had been following Cen Xi all day, to ask:
"Is she happy with all that she bought today?"
"She seemed unhappy. Ever since leaving Huide Pharmacy, my grandmother has been depressed."
Feng Qin watched Shen Jinchen sign the bill and said with a twitch in her mouth.
"What happened at Huide Pharmacy?"
Shen Jinchen paused for a moment and asked.
"No, it's just that the mistress asked if Xiaoyu had come to the capital, and the shopkeeper said no, so the mistress was not very happy."
Feng Qin thought for a moment and then explained.
"Little fish?"
Shen Jinchen thought about it carefully and realized that there seemed to be such a little girl on Feifeng Mountain.
I heard it's Cen Xi's daughter; it seems she misses her daughter.
Didn't she say she didn't like children? Oh, that doesn't seem right either; she probably just said she didn't want to get pregnant.
Once he understood this, Shen Jinchen knew what to do. He should send someone to bring that little girl to the princess's residence.
Perhaps this little girl will be a great help in helping Cen Xi have a child.
"You may leave!"
After Shen Jinchen finished writing a letter, he saw that Feng Qin was still standing there, so he told her to leave.
"Young master, to whom is this letter addressed?"
Seeing the serious look in Shen Jinchen's eyes, Feng Qin asked.
"Anyway, it's not for you. Go out and call Youhe over here."
Shen Jinchen glared at him, put the letter on the table, and continued signing his bills.
Looking at the ever-increasing amount, Shen Jinchen's lips twitched, and he finally smiled helplessly.
I wonder how much weight this attempt to please her will carry in her heart.
