Chapter 339 Being followed
I didn't expect that Lin Zhishen's situation was more difficult than she imagined, and he had to cover up these facts and pretend that it was no big deal. It was really difficult for him.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yuzhi looked around with more pity and couldn't help sighing.
It seems that being a prince is not a good thing.
Hearing her sigh, Lin Baoer and Fu Bo looked at her at the same time, not understanding why she suddenly sighed and looked so bitter and resentful.
They naturally couldn't imagine the storm in Jiang Yuzhi's head at the moment, and they just felt a little inexplicable.
Finally, it was Uncle Fu who broke the strange atmosphere, "The Seventh Prince is inside, please come in, ladies."
Lin Baoer said nothing else and went in with Jiang Yuzhi.
"Knock knock knock."
"Come in."
The door was pushed open with a creak, and Lin Baoer saw Lin Zhishen sitting behind the desk.
When Lin Zhishen saw them, the wrinkles between his eyebrows relaxed and he smiled a little, "Why are you here?"
Lin Baoer scanned the furnishings of the study, which was neither luxurious nor simple, just like an ordinary study, and the items in it were not as expensive as her father's study.
She immediately understood Lin Zhishen's current position in the court.
I guess he is hiding his incompetence.
After all, she had never seen Lin Zhishen look poor along the way. He always looked quite rich and had connections with all the factions in the Tang Clan. He must be rich.
And now the prince's mansion is decorated like this, probably to cover up and show it to others.
After that, Lin Baoer's expression relaxed.
"The yard is still being cleaned. Yuzhi and I want to go out for a walk. Do you think it's convenient now?"
What she meant by inconvenient was whether they could go out now.
Lin Zhishen was stunned, pondered for a while, and then nodded, "Okay, can you come back before dinner?"
"Okay." Lin Baoer nodded.
They were not going anywhere, and there were still two hours before dinner, which was enough time for them to walk around for a long time.
She hadn't seen the imperial city of Jiang yet. After all, one of the purposes of her trip was to look around and see how it was different from the capital of Taiping.
When Jiang Yuzhi heard that they were going out to play, a smile immediately gathered on her face, and she couldn't stop smiling. "Sister Baoer, why didn't you tell me earlier? I thought you were going to talk to Brother Zhishen."
She whispered, overjoyed.
Lin Baoer glared at her and said nothing.
This girl only knows how to play.
"Do you need to bring guards?" Lin Zhishen asked.
"No!" Jiang Yuzhi answered first, raised his arms, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhishen, don't you still trust me? Just leave Sister Baoer to me."
Lin Zhishen smiled and agreed, "Okay."
After getting the nod, the two went straight out the door.
The Seventh Prince's Mansion is on a street on the West Street. Most of the people living on this street are dignitaries and people of good status. After crossing two more streets, you will arrive at the prosperous Zhonghe Street. The street is bustling with people and shouting, and it is very lively.
"So this is the imperial city under the feet of the emperor!" Jiang Yuzhi seemed very excited. She touched and looked here and there, but she couldn't see enough.
When she met Lin Baoer and the others, she was in Weicheng of Taiping Kingdom. After leaving Weicheng, she went all the way to the border. She had never been to the capital of Taiping Kingdom. So after arriving at the capital of Jiang Kingdom, she was even more surprised. She felt that it was very prosperous, and Weicheng was not even one-tenth of this place.
"No wonder Kyoto is so prosperous. Sister Baoer, look, is that someone from the Western Regions?!" Jiang Yuzhi pointed at a person dressed strangely and whispered excitedly.
She had never seen anyone from the Western Regions before, so she was naturally curious.
Lin Baoer looked at the person for a moment and nodded, "Probably." People
dressed like this are either from the Western Regions or foreigners. Maybe those people have business dealings with Jiangguo, so it's normal for them to appear here.
After walking around for a long time, only Jiang Yuzhi was excited to run around, while Lin Baoer was lazy, walking and stopping, feeling very comfortable.
But when they were halfway through their stroll, Jiang Yuzhi suddenly came to her side and whispered, "Someone is following us."
Lin Baoer's face sank, and she frowned again, "Did you see who they were?"
"There are two men wearing black coarse linen shirts behind us."
Just as she walked to the stall selling various dressing mirrors, Lin Baoer used the mirror to see the appearance of the two people behind her.
They looked ordinary and had no special features.
After thinking about it carefully, Lin Baoer guessed that those people might have followed them all the way, but they were not discovered by Jiang Yuzhi until now.
It seems that they were being watched as soon as they left the house.
"What should we do now, Sister Baoer?" Jiang Yuzhi's face also became nervous.
She didn't know the identities of these people, so she naturally didn't dare to act rashly.
"Just do the same as before, don't make any surprises." Lin Baoer whispered.
They had just entered the capital and didn't know the current situation in the capital, so they naturally couldn't take the initiative, otherwise she would have knocked the two men out and asked who they were.
Hearing this, Jiang Yuzhi nodded.
Then they ignored the two men and let them follow them. Finally, they walked and stopped and came to a restaurant.
"Wanghelou." Jiang Yuzhi smacked his lips, "This name is quite elegant. I'm a little hungry. Sister Baoer, let's go in and eat something!"
She wouldn't say that she was greedy.
"Let's go."
"Two guests, what would you like to order?"
As soon as they entered, the waiter came up and shouted, with a smile on his face.
Jiang Yuzhi waved his hand, quite arrogantly, "Come to a private room and order some of your signature dishes."
"Okay, sir."
Lin Baoer looked at Jiang Yuzhi with a smile and pinched her arm, "Do you feel familiar with us?"
"Of course not." Jiang Yuzhi chuckled.
They had been out for so long, even if she hadn't eaten pork, she had seen pigs run away, so such a small thing was not difficult for her.
After entering the private room, the two did not have to wait for long, and soon, one signature dish after another was served.
"Sir, this is our signature dish, lotus soup. It is just right to eat it at this time of year. You can try it." The waiter
introduced the dish in the middle. A small pig was filled with something yellow and orange like egg custard, sprinkled with some broken petals, glossy and smooth, looking quite delicate and tender, and exuding a sweet fragrance, with both color and fragrance.
Jiang Yuzhi was eager to try it, "Then I'll try it."
She never missed delicious food.
Lin Baoer didn't try that one first, but tried another one, which was a bit like fried pork with peppers. It looked very tempting and made her salivate.
She hadn't touched peppers for a long time since the trip, so she had to eat it to her heart's content!
