Once the people in front had walked away, some people gathered around and started talking: "Oh my! Who do you think that is? Is she His Highness the Crown Prince's concubine?"
The common people didn't know what the Crown Prince's women were; they just called them concubines.
"Of course! Think about it, where have you ever seen someone look like that? Even the top courtesan in that building... oh dear..."
"You're asking for trouble, how can you compare? Do you want to die?" A middle-aged woman slapped the brat across the face.
The young man was terrified. He had no lewd thoughts, but had just blurted out something inappropriate. He hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to the departing Yan Nangui, saying, "I was just talking nonsense, I was just talking nonsense, I would never dare to offend you."
The guards, who hadn't gone far, looked at each other, thinking to themselves that these people were interesting.
"Isn't she the daughter of the headmaster of Qinshan Academy who married the crown prince? Is that her?"
"No, no, I had the pleasure of seeing that girl before, and she was beautiful, but..." An auntie suddenly laughed halfway through her sentence, "Oh, my old eyes are failing me, I might have been mistaken."
However, everyone already knew that the other one was not as good as the current one.
How could ordinary people know who was in the Crown Prince's harem?
The only reason I know about the Murong clan is because of the famous Qinshan Academy.
Otherwise, you still wouldn't know.
Yan Nangui didn't care about what happened behind her; she went to Jinhua Tower.
The jewelry here is indeed beautiful.
Before making the purchase, he called Wei Xiao over: "Did your young master say whether he'd pay for it or not?"
Wei Xiao's lips twitched: "Your Highness... Young Master didn't say anything, but if Madam needs it, I'll cover it for you first?"
He wondered if the person hadn't brought enough money.
The jewelry at Jinhua Tower isn't cheap.
"You're going to use it as a cushion? Tsk, never mind, I won't bully you." Yan Nangui waved his hand.
As Wei Xiao came out, another guard nudged him: "Brother Wei, do you think this Lady Yan is like the one who was bullied by the Meng family in the rumors?"
Wei Xiao glared at the man, who quickly shut up.
Wei Xiao thought to himself, "Could this all be due to His Highness the Crown Prince's excessive pampering?"
Yan Nangui selected several sets of jewelry, as well as individual pieces. Some need to be custom-made and won't be available quickly.
"It's a custom order. If we can't get it within three days..." Yan Nangui blinked, "Can you send it to the capital?"
The shopkeeper was taken aback: "This... is acceptable, but this lady will need to contribute more money."
"Alright, you just do it. I'll leave one person here to stay for a few more days and wait."
Adding more money won't help; I'm afraid even if the boss goes to the capital, he won't be able to get into the Crown Prince's residence.
That would only cause more trouble later.
The shopkeeper readily agreed.
Yan Nangui efficiently bought three thousand taels of silver worth of goods.
She can certainly afford it herself; she's not short of money.
Not to mention what she has on hand, Shuiyun Manor is still doing quite well these days. In addition, there's her monthly allowance and the rewards from Shu Chengfeng.
They are at least well-off.
Take what you can with you now, and tell Wei Xiao to arrange for a guard who is not in a hurry to leave what you can't take.
All expenses are hers.
Wei Xiao agreed.
Anyway, someone will be staying here for a while, so it's fine to do it while we're at it.
When they returned to the villa, the Crown Prince had already returned.
Hearing that she had returned, he asked her to come to the front yard to meet him.
The Crown Prince, dressed in a black robe, was drinking tea. He looked rather thirsty.
"Greetings, Your Highness." Yan Nangui entered with a smile.
"Tang'er is having such a good time?" Shu Chengfeng put down his teacup.
Murong Liangyuan rose and greeted her with a polite bow, while Jin Fengyi paid her respects.
Yan Nangui waved her hand and sat down: "Everyone has their own happiness. I bought something for Your Highness."
As he spoke, he took out the box.
When opened, it revealed a hairpin made of red jade.
Although it wasn't made in a very sharp, masculine style, but rather resembled some delicate auspicious clouds and a flower, it wasn't overly feminine.
"Look, I fell in love with her at first sight. What do you think?"
Shu Chengfeng took it and laughed, "Do you think this is appropriate?"
“It suits you perfectly. Your Highness’s hair is so beautiful, doesn’t it look good?” Yan Nangui blinked. “Your Highness’s appearance is so outstanding that even if you wear a butterfly flower hairpin, it won’t overshadow you.”
Shu Chengfeng simply smiled and shook his head.
"Your Highness! How can Your Highness be so boring? You only attended one poetry debate, and you've already become a hypocrite!"
The wild geese, returning south, stamped their feet and acted coquettishly.
"Tsk, didn't I accept it?" In front of so many people, this woman was still shameless enough to act coquettishly.
"When I was a child, I also heard about the scene of Emperor Jianing angrily cursing in court during the previous dynasty," Consort Murong said with a smile.
"Sister Murong, are you referring to the discord between the civil and military officials?" Jin Fengyi asked.
"Yes, it's not that I'm saying anything bad about this matter, but I've heard before that civil and military officials often have different ideas and actions, leading to disharmony. Now, hearing what Sister Yan said about hypocritical scholars reminds me of that. No wonder you say that, Sister, just look at this morning, those scholars who call themselves scholars, spouting off their eruditions, it's really annoying..."
"Your Highness, look! It's all your fault. You've upset Sister Murong!" Yan Nangui took the blame and casually tossed it to Shu Chengfeng.
Shu Chengfeng sighed: "You're the only one who can cause trouble!"
"There's nothing I can do about it. I didn't study properly when I was little. My stepmother didn't care either. If I hadn't been a proper young lady with someone to teach me, I would have been ruined and would have become illiterate." Yan Nangui also picked up her tea and took a sip.
"I didn't know that Kim Bong-ui was so learned and talented."
Jin Fengyi hurriedly replied, "I dare not say that: I come from a humble background and only heard it from others."
"Alright, Tang'er, stop making a fuss. Since you're making such a fuss, change it for me yourself," Shu Chengfeng said.
Yan Nangui smiled brightly, the kind of smile that's especially radiant: "Great!"
As she spoke, she stood up and quickly removed Shu Chengfeng's hair ornament.
Too fast...
Shu Chengfeng glanced at her speechlessly.
"Oh dear, my hand slipped. I'll comb Your Highness's hair again right away."
Shu Chengfeng simply couldn't be bothered with her.
That's too deliberate.
However, recalling that back when they were still in Laiyang Prefecture, she had said she was a weight, Shu Chengfeng couldn't stay angry.
never mind.
So, in front of Murong Liangyuan and Jin Fengyi, Yan Nangui combed Shu Chengfeng's hair again and put on a new hairpin.
He looked quite handsome. Shu Chengfeng was dressed in a black robe today, his face pure yet with a touch of coldness and a hint of a smile.
A red jade hairpin was added to the hair, which was not pure black, but it did not look out of place at all.
Besides, it wasn't like there weren't men wearing flowers at that time.
Lunch was served in the front yard.
Of course, after finishing our meal, Yan Nangui went back.
This should be the Murong clan's home ground.
However, Murong must be very unhappy with her actions today.
But it doesn't matter, as long as she's happy.
