Chapter 61 Is it convenient now?
When Zhu Wenqin heard this, his face immediately flushed. He snorted and said in a discontented manner:
"You wish! Is this the amount I am worth?"
Jing Siye's smile deepened, and he asked:
"Then Qin'er, tell me, how much are you worth?"
Zhu Wenqin tilted her head and thought for a while, then stretched out five fingers and waved them in front of Jing Siye.
Jing Siye took a look and said calmly, "Five hundred thousand taels?"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Wenqin took a deep breath and exclaimed inwardly:
[Oh my God, I only asked for fifty thousand taels, but Your Majesty asked for so much! 】
He couldn't help but secretly glance at Jing Siye:
[Is he so rich?] No wonder he said that the teahouse was his, he must have other businesses. 】
Thinking of this, a sly look flashed across Zhu Wenqin's eyes:
[Then can I save some private money in the future? 】
Zhu Wenqin sorted out his emotions, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with a bit of pride in his tone:
"Of course, young master, I want good looks and talent... ahem..."
"In short, who else but me can warm up the prince's heart that has not changed for a thousand years?"
Qi Feng and Xue Nian were standing aside. When they heard these words, they couldn't help but nodded.
This is absolutely true. Ever since Zhu Wenqin came to the palace, the originally deserted palace has become more joyful, and even Jing Siye's usually stern face often shows a smile.
Jing Siye looked at Zhu Wenqin's smug expression, his eyes full of doting.
He smiled faintly and said in a gentle tone: "Okay, from now on Qin'er can go to the account office of the palace to withdraw money at will."
He originally wanted to give the key of the accounting office directly to Zhu Wenqin, but then he changed his mind, thinking that this little girl was very lively and might be too lazy to take care of these trivial matters.
When Zhu Wenqin heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up, and her tone was filled with a bit of surprise:
"Really? Anytime you want?"
Jing Siye nodded: "Of course it's true."
Zhu Wenqin smiled with her eyebrows curved and a brilliant arc appeared at the corner of her mouth:
"Your Majesty is so kind!"
He leaned closer to Jing Siye and said, "Your Majesty, please take Qin'er to the pawnshop. Qin'er wants to redeem all of her mother's dowry items."
Jing Siye: "No need to go, I have already redeemed them and returned them to your mother."
Hearing Jing Siye's words, Zhu Wenqin froze in place for a moment. He stared at Jing Siye straight, a layer of mist quietly rising in his eyes, and his heart was filled with an indescribable emotion. His lips slightly parted, his voice trembling slightly:
"Your Majesty...thank you very much."
Jing Siye raised his hand and touched Zhu Wenqin's head:
"No need to thank me. If I really want to thank you, I should thank Qin Er for coming to my side and allowing me to feel the flavor of life."
Zhu Wenqin's lips curled up, and she could hardly suppress her smile, with a cunning light flashing in her eyes:
"Well, I'm going to go buy some good things now. I just want Qi Feng to accompany me."
Jing Siye raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of inquiry in his tone:
"What are you going to buy? Can't I go?"
Zhu Wenqin blinked and said:
"Well, it's inconvenient."
Xue Nian was standing aside, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but twitch his lips:
What inconvenience could there be for a few grown men to be together?
Jing Siye looked at Zhu Wenqin's mysterious expression and understood what was going on.
He nodded on the surface and agreed to his request, but secretly he was worried and followed behind quietly.
Qi Feng brought Zhu Wenqin to a busy street market and stopped in front of a stall selling storybooks.
The stall owner was an old man in his fifties. When he saw Qi Feng, a smile immediately appeared on his face:
"Hey, Guard Qi, you're here again! There are quite a few new booklets published today, would you like to take a look?"
Qi Feng was obviously a regular customer. He exchanged a few familiar words with the stall owner, then picked up a storybook and started flipping through it, his eyes full of interest. He turned to Zhu Wenqin and said:
"Guard Zhu, take a look and see which ones you like. These are all new and quite interesting."
Zhu Wenqin stood aside, with a look of embarrassment on her face. The purpose of his coming today was not to buy these ordinary notebooks, but to buy some more private books.
But he didn't know how to start. Although he was a bit careless on weekdays, when it really came to this, he became so shy that his face turned red. He stammered for a long time but couldn't make any sense.
“…Um, I want to buy…”
Zhu Wenqin mustered up her courage, but just as she started to speak, she got stuck again.
Qi Feng tilted his head, waiting for his next words with a puzzled look on his face.
Zhu Wenqin scratched his head, stamped his feet anxiously, and tried hard to think about how to say what he wanted without being embarrassed.
In the distance, Jing Siye looked at the embarrassed little guy and couldn't help shaking his head.
He walked closer to the stall and said calmly, "Old man, I want all of your notebooks."
When Zhu Wenqin heard the familiar voice, she turned around abruptly and was about to shout "Prince" but was stopped by Jing Siye's eyes.
He then realized that they were going out in private clothes today and could not reveal their identities.
When the stall owner heard this, his eyes widened and he asked in disbelief:
"Sir, are you sure you want all of them?"
Jing Siye: "Of course."
After saying that, he motioned Qi Feng to take out the banknote.
Qi Feng quickly took out a silver note from his arms and stuffed it directly into the stall owner's hand.
Jing Siye: "Old man, there's no need to look for them. I want all the books."
The stall owner took the banknote, his hands trembling a little, and nodded repeatedly:
"Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir!"
Jing Siye waved his hand, signaling Qi Feng and Xue Nian to move all the notebooks onto the carriage. The two of them moved quickly and cleaned up all the notebooks on the stall in no time.
Zhu Wenqin stood aside, a trace of relief flashed in her eyes, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief:
[Fortunately, the prince arrived in time, otherwise I really wouldn’t know how to start the conversation. 】
Jing Siye walked up to Zhu Wenqin and looked down at him with a hint of teasing in his eyes:
"Is it convenient now?"
Zhu Wenqin blushed slightly and muttered in a low voice:
"Why did the prince follow me..."
Jing Siye chuckled: "If I hadn't come, Qin'er wouldn't even be able to speak, right?"
