Chapter 866: This is Zheng Shazi
After hearing Xuanyuan Jin's words, Wang Zhong pretended to slap himself in the face.
"Yes, yes, look at this old servant's stinky mouth, he really can't speak." Wang Zhong said with a smile: "In all these years, this old servant has never seen a girl more beautiful than the princess."
After hearing what Wang Zhong said, Xuanyuan Jin gave Wang Zhong a look full of disdain.
Meaning: You have good vision.
Wang Zhong's face was even more beaming with joy.
As long as you praise Tang Bao in front of the master, you will definitely be right.
Although all the valuable things are in the palace.
However, the things in the palace are larger than the ordinary ones, and some of the clothes and jewelry that little girls like are more common outside.
Xuanyuan Jin ordered the guards to lead the way to the most popular shop in the capital.
The guard thought about it and took Xuanyuan Jin directly to the foreign goods store that was the favorite place for the ladies in the capital.
You know, all the things in there are shipped from overseas.
Ordinary people simply can’t afford it.
As the guard walked, he thought, "The Third Prince has lived in the countryside for so many years, he's probably never seen foreign goods..."
Then, Xuanyuan Jin, who had never seen foreign goods before, met the owner of the foreign goods shop, Su Laosan, at the door of the shop.
"Third brother." Xuanyuan Jin said in surprise.
As soon as he saw the sign above the shop, he knew it was the Su family's.
After all, it has the words "Fu De" (blessings and blessings) on it.
Su Lao San was also very happy to see Xuanyuan Jin.
"Your Highness the Third Prince." Su Lao San saluted Xuanyuan Jin.
Although he used to call Xuanyuan Jin "Young Master Yang", he naturally knew about it after Xuanyuan Jin's return to the palace yesterday, so he changed his words easily.
Xuanyuan Jin helped Su Lao San up and said, "Third brother, there's no need to be so polite. Just treat it as you did before."
"Hahaha... OK." Su Lao San laughed heartily.
But I know in my heart that I must not be as casual as before.
Although, it wasn't too casual before.
"Third Prince, are you looking for something to buy?" Su Lao San led Xuanyuan Jin into the shop and said, "Just take whatever you like."
The shopkeeper, seeing his boss coming back after leaving just now, hurried over to greet him and wait for his instructions.
Xuanyuan Jin shook his head and said, "I just wanted to buy some things that are not available in Qingzhou Prefecture and send someone to send them back to Tang Bao, but I didn't expect to be brought here."
After saying this, he gave the guard who was leading the way a cold look.
This guard was assigned to him by the emperor.
I originally thought that this guard was familiar with the capital, so I asked him to lead the way.
However, Xuanyuan Jin noticed the little thoughts in the guard's mind just now.
Therefore, it was destined that this guard would be laid off from Xuanyuan Jin today.
Su Lao San was a very capable person. He could roughly guess what Xuanyuan Jin was thinking just by looking at his expression.
So, he smiled and said, "The things in here are all leftovers from my sister. Why do we need to send them to her?"
Su Laosan spoke casually, not caring at all that there were several other ladies in the shop choosing jewelry and ornaments.
It doesn't matter if I do fewer business deals, but I absolutely cannot lose face for my sister and the Third Prince!
As soon as the guard received Xuanyuan Jin's gaze, he broke out in a cold sweat.
Now, after hearing what Su Lao San said, he was shocked and regretful.
He was not stupid either, and he fell to his knees with a "thump".
"This subordinate deserves death! I am blind and blind. Please punish me, Your Highness!"
Xuanyuan Jin didn't even look at the guard and let him kneel there.
Several noble ladies who were originally choosing things in the shop immediately looked gloomy when they heard what Su Lao San said.
They are of noble status, how could they buy what is left over by a merchant's sister?
It's such an insult to them!
Several people were about to get angry, but when they saw the guard kneeling like this and knew Xuanyuan Jin's identity, they immediately suppressed their anger.
Given their status, they dare not provoke the prince.
However, how could a prince be so close to the sister of a businessman?
The noble ladies looked at each other and saw the gossipy glint in each other's eyes.
"Third brother!"
Following the shout, a young man in a royal blue bachelor's gown walked in from outside.
The boy is neither fat nor thin, with a round face, big eyes and a high nose bridge, and is very likable.
"Brother Zheng is here." Su Lao San looked at the young man and greeted him with a smile.
"Third brother, I've found out. Although the house is a little small, it's close to the Imperial Examination Hall, less than a quarter of an hour's walk away. It's just enough for those candidates to stay temporarily." The young man said excitedly, "Then let Sister Fu Ya live with us..."
The boy became more and more excited as he spoke, and couldn't help rubbing his hands.
"I, no, it's my mother." The young man stuttered, "My mother keeps talking about Sister Fu Ya all day long. Now that she heard that Sister Fu Ya is coming to the capital, she has been counting the days all day long..."
After Xuanyuan Jin listened to the boy's words, and then looked at the boy who was so excited as if he was going to get married, a little fat man slowly appeared in front of him.
Involuntarily, his handsome face darkened.
And he also gritted his teeth.
Zheng the fool!
Zheng Yuanzheng was so preoccupied with Tang Bao's visit to the capital that he didn't even notice Xuanyuan Jin, who was standing next to him with a cold face.
Just because he didn't notice it doesn't mean Su Lao San didn't notice it.
After all, the coldness emanating from Xuanyuan Jin was too much and too strong.
Su Laosan looked at Xuanyuan Jin, coughed twice, and interrupted Zheng Yuanzheng's fantasy.
"Um, Brother Zheng, this is the Third Prince, whom you met when you were young." Su Lao San introduced.
Zheng Yuanzheng: “…”
He slowly turned his head and looked at Xuanyuan Jin, who had a dark face.
The shadow of childhood surfaced again.
"Greetings, Third Prince." Zheng Yuanzheng hurriedly saluted Xuanyuan Jin.
Then, he added another sentence as if by reflex.
"I'm not a fool!"
Xuanyuan Jin sneered.
Just based on this one sentence, he is still a fool!
After hearing Zheng Yuanzheng's addition, Su Laosan couldn't help but twitch his mouth.
Then, he looked at Zheng Yuanzheng with some sympathy in his eyes.
How many times has he been called a fool for him to reiterate that he is not a fool when they meet?
"Sure enough, he's still a fool." Xuanyuan Jin said disdainfully.
Zheng Yuanzheng: “…”
He took a deep breath and exhaled.
Then, he looked at Xuanyuan Jin with his head held high.
He said loudly: "Your Highness, I am now a scholar. You mock me like this. Could it be that in your heart, all scholars in the world are fools?"
Su Laosan was shocked.
If this kind of talk were to get out, wouldn't it greatly damage the Third Prince's reputation among the officials?
Su Lao San quickly said, "Brother Zheng, you misunderstood. That's not what the Third Prince meant."
Xuanyuan Jin finally gave Zheng Yuanzheng a serious look.
"I didn't expect you to make some progress."
Compared to when he was a child, Xuanyuan Jin finds this idiot Zheng even more annoying!
