The Regent's Tender Darling

Chapter 146 Borrowing Money

After leaving the inn and getting on the carriage, Lin Jiaojiao took off her bamboo hat, took two deep breaths and leaned directly on Xuemei's shoulder.

Seeing her tired look, Xuemei asked, "Don't you want to invite Mr. Li to your residence? Is it possible that Mr. Li is unhappy?"

She closed her eyes and responded, then said: "He will come."

I just don’t know the specific time.

After all, Li Maonian knew the wolf tooth necklace. He had been looking for his sister for so many years. Now that he knew where she was, how could he not look for her?

She just needs to wait in the house.

Then she said: "Ask the coachman not to go back, I want to go to Yujie Hongqiao."

After she said that, Xuemei shouted to the driver outside.

―――Yujie.

Hongqiao.

This is the most prosperous area in the capital, especially Hongqiao. However, pedestrians on Hongqiao come and go in a hurry, rushing for their livelihood, and those who can stay on Hongqiao and have a panoramic view of the Jinghe River become the envy of ordinary people. .

"Mother, we're here."

"Well..." Lin Jiaojiao, who was about to fall asleep, lazily opened her eyes, raised her hands and stretched before opening the curtain and looking outside.

Next to Hongqiao there is a shop that sells the Four Treasures of the Study, Famous Painting Spring Hall. This was her least favorite place before, because her elder brother would always buy her things she didn't like here.

And she came today just to meet someone.

Then, she said to Xuemei: "Don't go down, go back to the house, I will stop the prince's carriage to go back later."

"Ah?" Xuemei was shocked and immediately shook her head in disapproval: "How can I let your concubine stay outside alone?"

"Go back quickly. If you really have nothing to do, practice your calligraphy." After that, she didn't care whether Xuemei answered or not, put on her bamboo hat and got out of the carriage.

It was even more lively outside after getting out of the carriage, because she was really in the midst of the bustle.

She looked at the Hua Chun Tang in front of her, and then walked in. The shop was filled with fine items for study, but the only thing missing was the paper used for writing. It must have been sold out.

This is the best shop in Beijing. As soon as the goods arrived, they were sold out within an hour.

The shopkeeper saw her looking around, so he said with a smile: "Sir, our paper has been sold out, why don't you look at something else?"

She looked at the shopkeeper, shook her head, and then asked, "Is Wu Congshu here?"

"Wu..." The shopkeeper almost opened his mouth to call out his full name, but quickly changed his words after being silent: "Wu Jinshi has been called away by the people from the Ministry of Rites, saying that he is going to enter the Imperial Academy, and he will no longer have to work."

So fast?

Xu Shi saw her in a daze, so the shopkeeper said a few more words: "Hey, you don't know, right? There is a fake Jinshi named Shen Yeting who said he bribed a doctor from the Ministry of Etiquette to get the rank. Now both of them are in jail. Yes, this can range from exile to public humiliation."

After speaking, the shopkeeper shook his head and clicked his tongue twice.

She came back to her senses and slightly cupped her hands: "Thank you, shopkeeper, for informing me."

"Harm, what's the big deal?" The shopkeeper smiled and waved his hand.

Now that Wu Congshu has a lot of potential, she can't let this talent mix with Lin Zhengyang, so she said: "Shopkeeper, give me a piece of good Hui ink."

After saying that, she touched her waist and realized that she didn't bring any money. Just when she was distressed, she accidentally saw someone walking outside.

So he said: "Shopkeeper, please wait a moment." After saying that, he ran out in a hurry.

"Ye Feng, Ye Feng." She shouted twice.

Ye Feng, who was walking towards the Prince Regent's Palace, suddenly turned around and saw a woman in white clothes and a bamboo hat running towards him.

Suddenly, the pupils dilated a bit. Could this person... be the princess?

After Lin Jiaojiao ran over, she lifted up the white gauze and smiled at Ye Feng, then waved to him to come over.

And Ye Feng didn't refuse, and took a few steps towards her honestly, and they both reached the roadside.

She then said: "Quickly, lend me some money."
