"Since my sister doesn't need it, Miss Jing, please take it." Ye Xiaosha took it directly from Ye Xingchen's hand and handed it to Jing Yaner's maid.
Jing Yaner's face froze and she glared at Ye Xiaosha in reproach. Now she had no choice but to accept it.
"This originally belonged to my young lady." said the maid proudly.
Ye Xingchen was too lazy to pay attention and turned away.
"Ms. Jing, see you later." Ye Xiaosha hurriedly chased after her.
Jing Yaner looked at Ye Xingchen's back and always felt that she seemed different from before, but she couldn't see what.
"Miss, when you wear this hairpin at the chrysanthemum viewing banquet, you will definitely outshine all the other beauties." The maid flattered.
Jing Yan'er was extremely satisfied: "If that's the case, then keep it."
Here, Ye Xingchen walked out of the store and went straight back.
"Xingchen, why are you walking so fast? You haven't chosen your clothes and jewelry yet?" Ye Xiaosa asked.
"Why don't you go and talk to Jing Yan'er, you licker? What are you following me for?" Ye Xingchen asked back.
Ye Xiaosha froze for a moment: "What is a dog licker?"
"You're just like a dog that can't walk when it sees a bone. You keep fawning and flattering. If you don't know, people would think you are Jing Yaner's brother." Ye Xingchen snorted coldly.
Ye Xiaosha was a little embarrassed. He also felt that he had just gone too far. "I just think that you are arrogant and domineering, and you are not suitable for such ladylike things. How about I give you a set of riding clothes? "
"No need." Ye Xingchen sat down in front of the herbal tea stall, ordered a bowl of herbal tea and started drinking it.
"Madam, Madam, I have finally found you. Can you please save my master?" An anxious and worried voice came.
Ye Xingchen almost spit out the herbal tea he had drunk and looked at the little boy in front of him who was only five or six years old.
"What did you call her?" Ye Xiaosha asked in shock.
"Grandma, my master is Master Daotian. He said that you are his master, which means you are my grandma, and he asked me to respect you well." The little boy explained seriously.
Ye Xingchen's mouth twitched: "I never said that I would accept him as my apprentice."
"I told him so, but the master insisted that you are his only master in this life." The little boy replied.
Ye Xingchen didn't expect that Master Daotian was so persistent that he even wanted the little boy to honor him. In view of his thoughtfulness, Ye Xingchen asked.
"What happened to your master?"
"Master was captured by people from Prince Mo's Mansion late last night. He used an invisibility talisman on me at that time, so they didn't find me. Auntie, please save Master. Although Master is a little greedy, he has never done anything against the law." The little boy explained.
"King Mo?" Ye Xingchen frowned.
"It's his men. I've seen them once before."
Ye Xiaosha was shocked: "It must be that King Mo has come to his senses. He can't touch you openly, so he went to Master Daotian to settle the score later."
"Wouldn't my master be in great danger? There are many high-ranking officials waiting for him to look at their feng shui, and they have already made an appointment. If I can't go, people will definitely think that my master is unfaithful." The little boy was so worried that he started crying.
Ye Xingchen glanced at him and said, "Do you know anyone who asked your master to look at Feng Shui?"
The little boy immediately handed over the booklet: "These are what I agreed with the master."
Ye Xingchen took it and took a look at it. Ye Xiaosha immediately advised: "Sister, you can't even take care of yourself at the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Banquet, how can you have the energy to care about others."
"Who said I have to show up in person? After all, he saved my life. Little boy, go find the people in this booklet and tell them that King Mo invited your master to be a guest. Don't let him show his master to these people, and ask them to go to King Mo's mansion to ask for him." Ye Xingchen said.
The little boy was immediately surprised: "Thank you, Auntie. I'll go right away." After saying that, he took the booklet and ran away.
"Sister, what are you doing?" Ye Xiaosha looked at her suspiciously.
"Those people are princes, uncles-in-law, prime ministers, etc. King Mo can't afford to offend any of them. He will release them when the time comes." Ye Xingchen explained.
"I see. My sister is smart."
Ajiu, who had been responsible for secretly protecting Ye Xingchen, watched her return home after drinking the herbal tea, and immediately went back to report to the Regent.
When he heard that Ye Xingchen gave a hairpin to Jing Yaner, Cang Boyi frowned.
That girl is not someone who will suffer a loss. There must be a reason why she took the initiative to give in.
But she went out for a walk and didn't even think of herself. Cang Boyi had been waiting for Ye Xingchen to explain to him, but she didn't even think of herself at all.
Cang Boyi's expression became even uglier, and the aura around him turned cold.
"Regent, Concubine Xuan asked Ye Xingchen to attend the chrysanthemum viewing banquet in five days. This must be the Hongmen Banquet." Su Ruoan reminded immediately.
"She is not afraid of evil spirits, so how can she be afraid of concubines in the harem!" Cang Boyi snorted angrily and turned away.
"Su Ruoan, why do I feel that the Regent is angry?" Ajiu asked.
"I originally wanted to ask the Regent to help Miss Ye, but now it's all over." Su Ruoan replied.
Five days later, there was a chrysanthemum viewing banquet.
Early in the morning, the high-ranking officials and single young men and women in the capital all dressed up elegantly and headed straight for the palace.
It was called a chrysanthemum viewing banquet, but in fact it was a blind date banquet in disguise. Naturally, everyone put in their best efforts and wanted to outshine the others.
At this time, many people have come to the Imperial Garden, and they are gathered in groups of three or four to chat and laugh.
"Miss Jing, this hairpin on your head is so unique and lifelike."
"This hairpin makes Miss Jing look even more dignified."
"Ms. Jing has a good eye." Everyone gathered around and flattered her.
"Ye Xingchen is trying to snatch this hairpin from my young lady." Jing Yaner's maid Lu Zhu said.
When the others heard this, they were immediately surprised: "Didn't Ye Xingchen divorce King Mo?"
"She came back to life. It's scary."
"Dead people are so unlucky."
"She has always been arrogant and domineering. It would be strange if she didn't steal other people's things."
Everyone sneered at Ye Xingchen and was very disgusted with him.
Prince Mo came over with Fu Yurou and just happened to hear their conversation. Fu Yurou's face was still a little swollen and she was wearing a veil.
After all, it was a once-a-year chrysanthemum viewing banquet, and Fu Yurou had never attended one before, so she wanted to see it for herself. At this moment, seeing everyone looking at her, a hint of pride flashed across Fu Yurou's eyes.
Seeing Prince Mo coming, Jing Yan'er immediately spoke up: "This is also my fault. I like the same hairpin as Miss Ye. After all, she is the former Princess Mo."
Prince Mo just happened to hear this, and his face instantly turned cold: "What kind of Princess Mo is she? If it weren't for the Queen Mother's arrangement, how could this prince be interested in her? How could she be qualified to compete with Miss Jing for the hairpin?"
Jing Yaner was delighted when she heard Prince Mo say this, but she pretended to blame herself: "Prince Mo, you are too kind. It's just a hairpin. If Miss Ye wants it, Yaner will give it to her."
Prince Mo raised his eyebrows and looked at Jing Yaner: "Miss Jing is so generous and kind. Ye Xingchen is not worthy of you."
Everyone echoed this, and they all hated and despised Ye Xingchen even more.
"Jing Yan'er, why don't you tell everyone that this hairpin is a gift from me!" A cold voice echoed throughout the imperial garden.
