After finishing the buns, Yinreng took Yinzhen to the next mutton soup shop, then to the next pancake stall, tofu pudding stall, and rice dumpling stall...
I ate and paid along the way, and I couldn't finish walking along this long street in an hour.
"belch……"
In the end, the food in Yinreng's stomach was about to reach his throat, and he gave up the idea of going to the next stall in disappointment.
Yinreng rummaged through the small box and found a lot of gold beans inside. He looked at the still bustling atmosphere and sighed.
“People nowadays really love to eat!”
Unlike people in later generations, he was about 1.8 meters tall at that time. He could eat three or two taels of rice in one meal and be full with some side dishes.
Yinzhen also ate a lot, but he was much more restrained than Yinreng. When he felt he could not eat anymore, he stopped eating.
Yinreng even laughed at him: "You don't know how precious the atmosphere of the city is. It will definitely be a long time before you have the chance to come to the outer city again."
Upon hearing this, Yinzhen's expression softened uncommonly.
The environment here cannot be compared with that in the imperial city. It is crowded and noisy, and most of the people's mouths are not very clean, but he just feels extremely relaxed.
After Yinreng had eaten his fill, he could have handed the golden beans to the commander of the imperial guards and asked him to pay.
But in order to experience the feeling of "spending money like water", he took Yinzhen to visit all the remaining shops.
In the end, only a small half of the ninety taels of gold beans was left.
Yinreng called the commander of the imperial guards and several translators to his side and said to the commander of the imperial guards,
"The Imperial Guards are still needed to watch over this place. We must make sure no trouble occurs."
“Yeah.”
The commander of the imperial guards responded immediately.
Yinreng took out a handful of golden beans and stuffed them into the hands of one of the translators. He gave the rest of the beans along with the box to the commander of the imperial guards.
"You've worked hard today. After this, take the brothers out for a drink."
"Thank you, Prince!"
Yinreng went to ask for a few strings of sugar figures and a pole of candied haws, intending to take them back to the palace.
He enjoyed his meal today and did not forget his younger brothers and sisters in the palace.
But now, we still have to deal with those two stubborn old white-haired guys first.
When Yinreng and Yinzhen returned to the inn, the two blond-haired and blue-eyed foreign nobles were still at the gate, being guarded by the imperial guards.
Fashishan and the other man followed behind the carriage, their legs trembling from running.
When have they ever suffered such hardship?
But the prince was obviously very angry at the moment, and the two of them even had to suppress their breathing, for fear that the prince would notice them again.
When they saw Yinreng and Yinzhen getting off the carriage, the two of them became instantly excited and started swearing at Yinreng.
These two people, one is from Britain and the other is from France.
With the foundation from his first life, the best foreign language he learned in his previous life was English.
But in this day and age, many words have not yet been created, so in his previous life, when he confidently communicated with the British, he found that the British sometimes did not understand what he said.
It's also quite speechless.
Seeing this Englishman coming up and scolding him, Yinreng's face turned black and he slapped him directly -
“Bang!”
An extremely crisp sound echoed in the air, and the Englishman covered his cheeks in disbelief.
Didn't the people of the Qing Dynasty pride themselves on being civilized and polite? Why did this man just come up and slap him?
Fashishan and Huang Jinmin's faces twitched, and the places where they were hit seemed to be burning.
Yinreng shook his hands in disgust and replied in fluent English,
"If you curse me again, I will kill you and take your head to your king to ask for justice!"
The British guy's eyes widened immediately. How could this guy be so unreasonable!
He was guarded by these barbarians for four hours without even a sip of water!
The British tried to reason with Yinreng.
"They detained me for four hours! They didn't even let me drink a drop of water. My father is the Prince of England. How could you treat a person like this..."
Yinreng rolled his eyes and interrupted directly,
"This is the Qing Dynasty, not England. You're bringing up your father just because you've caused trouble. You're probably still nursing your child, aren't you? If that's the case, you should stay with your parents and not embarrass yourself!"
British guy: “…”
Yinzhen was confused as he listened from the side. He had never been interested in these foreign languages.
But seeing how relaxed his second brother was, he felt that he was very impressive.
After Yinreng finished speaking, he walked towards the posthouse.
"Bring them here, I want to question them!"
The two clerks guarding the posthouse were standing at the door, and when they saw Yinreng approaching, they hurried over to greet him.
"Your humble servant pays respect to His Majesty the Crown Prince!"
"Get up and make room for me!"
"yes!"
After a while, Yinreng and his companion were sitting in an empty room, and the two foreigners could only kneel on the ground.
Yinreng first asked the Englishman,
"You said our people wanted to rob you of your money? Do you have any evidence?"
The Englishman was slapped in the face and no longer dared to put on that condescending attitude. He answered honestly,
"I went to the store to buy bottles and accidentally broke one. The young man asked me for gold, lots of gold!"
Yinreng: “…”
He looked at Fashishan and asked in a bad tone,
"He went to someone else's store to buy something. If he broke something, shouldn't he pay compensation?"
Fashishan shrank back and replied weakly,
"But the pawnshop clerk said he broke something from the Tang Dynasty and demanded five hundred taels of gold as compensation! I don't know anything about antiques, so..."
"So you're the one who decided to let him smash an antique for nothing?"
Fashishan didn't dare to look up.
Yinreng was so angry that he laughed.
This is truly a good official for the people!
Then another question came to mind - logically speaking, a pawnshop like this should have an owner behind it.
Although the people living in the outer city were all Han people, there were also many dignitaries and wealthy businessmen. He didn't believe that the pawnshop owner didn't make arrangements with everyone. Officials like Fashishan who were in charge of the security of the outer city should be the main target of the arrangements.
Fashishan did not give face to the pawnshop owner, so there is only one possibility.
Yinreng narrowed his eyes, looked the Englishman up and down, then turned back to look at Fashishan.
"Tell me honestly, who is behind this foreigner?"
Fashishan's heart tightened, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He didn't expect that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was so perceptive that he could guess that there was someone behind him just by a few words from this foreigner.
Fashishan stammered and didn't want to answer.
The cold light in Yinreng's eyes flashed away.
"Answer me!"
Fashishan's body softened, and he finally knelt down unable to bear the pressure.
"Your Highness, it's missionary Hong Ruohan!"
