Having just offended Princess Lina, Qiu Yuanyuan saw the opportunity and immediately tried to please her.
"Oh, then we must go and take a look. Princess Lina is already seventeen years old. She will definitely marry into the Prince Regent's Palace this year. This is just to see her dowry. Princess, let's go and take a look together."
Of course she had to go, but for the sake of face, she didn't show any impatience. She knew that these people would flatter her, and this was the effect she wanted.
"Master Xiao's jewelry is rare, so let's go and have a look. It happens that you ladies are not young anymore. Let alone this princess is preparing her dowry, aren't you the same?"
Hearing this, several women burst into laughter, pretended to be shy, and huddled together before going downstairs.
Here, soldiers and officers soon came to the wine shop.
After asking the reason, those few people unexpectedly started to complain first.
"Officials, they were the first to attack. We are only here to buy wine."
"Heh, why did you pull our customer aside to buy wine and even arrogantly threaten the waiter? Officer, take the man back first. You can handle the details yourself."
Seeing Chaoge ordering them to do things so arrogantly, the officials also lost their good faces.
"You don't have the final say in government affairs. Since you have reported the case, let's go together."
"Where are you going?"
Chaoge was not very familiar with the ancient laws, nor the procedures for reporting crimes. When he was wondering, a familiar voice suddenly sounded.
When she turned around and looked up, she saw Princess Bi Chen, who looked in good spirits today, walking in from outside the wine shop.
When they saw Princess Bi Chen, the officials' faces changed and they immediately knelt down to pay their respects!
"Heh, what are you doing here, a bunch of officials? My friend is being bullied, and you're turning the tables and want to take my friend away?"
"Princess, we are also following the rules. Since he is your friend, we will definitely not do anything to disrupt the public order of the capital. I will take him away right away, right away."
"etc!"
Just as the officers were about to leave after arresting a dozen people, Chaoge stopped them!
"Miss, what can I do for you?"
"These people came to our house on New Year's Eve to seek compensation and cause trouble. I suspect someone behind them deliberately assigned them. I hope you will handle this impartially, otherwise I will definitely investigate to the end."
Seeing Chaoge still being arrogant, the officials dared not say anything. After all, he was Princess Bichen's friend, so they could only promise again and again that they would handle the matter impartially.
"Sister Yun, is this the wine shop you opened?"
"My second uncle opened it. Why did you leave the palace again today? Has your father lifted your confinement order?"
It was indeed Yunhe who took care of this wine shop. Chaoge did not take all the credit for himself, nor did he want to be too high-profile.
She was indeed surprised to see Princess Bi Chen and her maid appear on the street again.
"Oh, I see. From now on, I will have people in the palace take care of your second uncle's business."
"No, my second uncle doesn't have enough wine to sell, and I don't want others to know that this is our Yun family's wine shop, so as to avoid any trouble."
After saying that, Chaoge turned around and looked at Yunhe, "Second uncle, you handle the things here. I will ask someone to ask the officials later. If there is anything, let them come back and tell me."
"Okay, go ahead and do your thing."
Although Yun Chang knew that Jun Yumo was the regent, he was shocked to see that his niece had such a good relationship with the princess, but he slowly digested it on his own.
"Then Uncle, we are leaving. Goodbye, Uncle!"
After Chaoge finished speaking, Princess Bichen became even more unrestrained and spoke sweetly to Yunhe, following Chaoge's lead in calling him "Second Uncle".
The word "Second Uncle" frightened Yunhe so much that he bowed repeatedly in panic and confusion.
"Let's go!"
Looking at the restrained Yunhe, Chaoge hurriedly pulled Princess Bichen out of the wine shop.
"Just now I was on the street and saw you, Sister Yun, attacking those people. I wanted to wait for you at the door after you dealt with those things, but those officials were so outrageous."
"Let's talk business. You seem to be in a good mood today. Why did your father let you leave the palace? It seems that you were not punished when you returned to the palace that day, right?"
Princess Bi Chen was filled with anger when she thought about the threats from her own father.
"No! It's New Year's Day, and when I go back, I'll just be in time for the family dinner, and my father won't blame me."
Princess Bi Chen spoke evasively as the two of them walked to the outside of Chengbaozhai. Princess Bi Chen directly pulled Chaoge and was about to go in.
Chaoge had no shortage of jewelry and didn't like wearing them, so naturally she was unwilling to go in.
"Hey, Sister Yun, just keep me company. Today, my mother gave me tens of thousands of taels of silver notes and asked me to go out and buy things on my own. I'll use it as my dowry for the Prime Minister in the future. Anyway, whether I become the Prime Minister or marry someone else, I'll definitely have to buy the dowry."
Seeing the little girl speaking so pitifully, Chaoge had no choice but to accompany her in for a walk.
As soon as he came in, the servant recognized Princess Bi Chen at a glance and greeted her warmly.
"Aren't these things used by you princes and princesses supposed to be made by the craftsmen in the imperial palace? I heard that they must be specially engraved with the royal mark. Why are you buying these?"
After coming in, Chaoge suddenly remembered the TV series she had watched in her previous life. She was curious and wondered if the royal family of the Canglan Dynasty was different from the royal family in history?
"Indeed, but who doesn't buy something outside?"
Hearing this, Chaoge headed towards the place where the jewellery was displayed, but was pulled directly up to the second floor by Princess Bi Chen.
"There is a tea room. We can just drink tea and watch. They know what to bring up."
After saying this, Princess Bi Chen turned around and looked at the servant who followed him.
"Aren't you selling Master Xiao's jewelry today? I heard there are many new styles, especially suitable for wearing in the early spring. Bring them all to the tea room and I will take my time to choose."
"yes!"
As soon as the two entered the tea room, a maid came and brought them cakes and tea and started serving them.
Chaoge took a look at the pastries and didn't have much appetite. However, Princess Bi Chen picked them up and started to eat them.
"I was in the palace this afternoon and didn't eat much, so I'm hungry."
Seeing that Chaoge didn't eat, Princess Bi Chen started eating on her own, without forgetting to explain a few words.
"Oh, Princess, I'm so sorry. I don't know who leaked the news today. Many nobles came to choose the new jewelry today. I was a step too slow. The hundreds of styles of jewelry were taken away to show to other nobles."
"Noble? What noble?"
In fact, Princess Bi Chen did not want to buy a dowry for herself today. The imperial concubine did give her tens of thousands of taels of silver, but those banknotes were for her to buy some gifts for Chaoge.
