Yue Lingfeng saw that more and more people were coming, and there were many people queuing up to join in the fun. They definitely could not afford twenty taels to buy a painting.
I couldn't help but lean over and cover my lips and said, "Miss, is the painting too expensive?"
Wen Yu replied: "Money, make money, money, do you want it? Picking up money from a sack, don't you like it? The rich are willing to pay, and those who don't have money will naturally leave after joining in the fun, and they won't lose anything."
"Besides, your paintings are sold at a low price of 20 taels. Can you be more confident? Future top scholar, think about it. Your paintings will be worth a fortune in the future. If you think about it this way, those people queuing up are still getting a bargain."
Yue Lingfeng was stunned for a moment, then chuckled and said, "Miss is right."
The vendors selling sugar figures and rouge nearby were dumbfounded.
So many people! So much money!
It turns out that the person that Mr. Yue was waiting for every day was this young lady.
The sugar figurine vendor's eyes were filled with envy and blessings, thinking that before this, the young lady had asked him about Mr. Yue's residence and rewarded him with silver.
It seems that lovers finally get married.
At this time, not far away at the intersection of Lin'an Street, a young man in blue was looking at the painting stall with a hesitant look on his face, seeming a little surprised and unbelievable.
But there were so many people surrounding the painting stall that he was not sure if he had seen it wrong.
Just as he was about to go forward to take a closer look, his friend beside him grabbed him and said, "Lu Jin, what are you looking at? Let's go, they are all here and waiting for us. We must beat them today and catch a big one!"
Lu Jin was dragged away, but he couldn't stop looking back, his eyes full of hesitation.
Although she is wearing a veil, she really looks like the eldest princess... and who is the man next to her? Their behavior seems quite intimate.
"What are you looking at?" my friend looked puzzled.
Lu Jin retracted his gaze, shook his head, and said to himself: "Nothing, it shouldn't be. How could such a noble princess sell paintings on the street? I'm really crazy..."
"What are you mumbling about?"
"It's okay, I was dazzled and saw the wrong person. Let's go, let's go. Today we must catch a big one and win back our face!"
"That's right, we must get back at him today!"
Lu Jin and his friends left quickly and quickly put the matter behind them.
The painting stalls are still bustling with people and their enthusiasm remains unabated.
Yue Lingfeng just rolled up the painting, and his hands became a little stiff.
He glanced at the last two remaining paintings, then looked at the still long queue, and sighed.
"Miss, there are only two left. I will go and dismiss the others."
Wen Yu raised her eyebrows: "Dismiss? Why dismiss? With so many people, just do pre-sale, pay a deposit, and then you go back and paint like crazy, give it to them after you're done, and they can pay the balance at the end."
Yue Lingfeng:?
Seeing Yue Lingfeng looked shocked, Wen Yu teased, "I'm just kidding. I know you're used to paying for goods at the same time. Go and dismiss them."
Yue Lingfeng pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "Miss, you still say it's not a fantastic idea?"
As he walked to the back of the line, he was about to say that the paintings were sold out and that people should not queue any longer when suddenly a figure rushed through the line, so fast that only an afterimage could be seen.
Several people in the team were knocked down.
Yue Lingfeng helped a guest up: "Are you okay?"
"It's okay, it's okay. Who is this? You are walking without paying attention..."
As soon as he finished speaking, another group of soldiers rushed up.
They were so imposing that they seemed to be chasing after the afterimage that had escaped earlier, and they shouted, "Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
"It's the Imperial Guards!" Someone recognized them and exclaimed immediately.
As soon as the words fell, Lin'an Street suddenly became chaotic, and the long queue in front of the painting stall immediately dispersed and fled in all directions.
People are crowded together and stepping on each other, it is even worse than during the Spring Festival travel rush.
Yue Lingfeng was at the end of the queue at this time, quite a distance away from the painting stall. It was a long queue, and amid the chaos of the crowd, he was unable to quickly return to the painting stall.
He pushed through the crowd with a worried look on his face, and walked back with all his might, shouting, "Miss! There's danger! Get away from the stall quickly! Hide!"
You know, the deployment of the Imperial Guards must be a big deal.
But the noise of the crowd was too loud, and Yue Lingfeng's voice could not reach Wen Yu's ears.
At this moment, Lin'an Street, which had been prosperous and peaceful two minutes ago, was in chaos.
Even the art stall was squeezed to the side, and the two remaining paintings fell to the ground and were trampled beyond recognition by panicked passers-by.
Wen Yu had already stood up from the bamboo chair. She saw Yue Lingfeng's anxious look from afar and waved at him soothingly, indicating that it was okay and not to worry.
Then he used his fingers to make two feet, signaling him to go first and not to squeeze in.
After all, that’s how stampedes happen.
Amid the panicked crowd, Wen Yu and Liu Chun stood still, completely calm.
Liu Chun helped Wen Yugui avoid the collision with the crowd and whispered, "Princess, it's the imperial guards. It seems that something big has happened in Shengjing City."
As soon as he finished speaking, another team of imperial guards ran past.
"Stay away, everyone!"
"Stay away, everyone!"
At this time, the leading imperial guard stepped on the shoulders of passers-by to gain leverage and leaped directly onto the roof. "Come on! He's on the straight! Outflank him from both sides!"
In an instant, the team behind him split into three groups.
Wen Yu, who was watching the whole process: …
This scene is exciting!
I just don't know who is being chased.
"Princess? It's you! Why are you here?"
At this moment, a slightly familiar voice suddenly sounded in Wen Yu's ears, with shock.
Although she was wearing a veil, he was not mistaken!
Wen Yu glanced sideways and was surprised to find that it was the Chief Justice of Dali Temple, the little old-fashioned Jiang Qi.
Jiang Qi was still wearing his official robes. He frowned tightly and glanced at the direction the imperial guards were chasing. He hesitated for a second and said, "There are urgent matters. Lin'an Street is very chaotic now. The princess may not be safe here. There are imperial guards chasing over there. I will escort the princess back to the princess's mansion first!"
Then he stuffed the sword into Wen Yu's hand without saying anything, "Princess, please hold on to it and come this way!"
Wen Yu looked down at the sword, then looked at Jiang Qi, then threw the sword away and grabbed his hand.
Jiang Qi: ...
