Quick Wear: Saving Three Thousand Matches

Yun Chenyu was waiting at the palace gate early in the morning.

"Sorry to have kept Lord Yun waiting for a long time." Jin Jiusi came slowly.

She was wearing a pink daffodil dress with green leaves, and her long black hair was casually tied up with a lavender ribbon and hung around her waist. There were small silver bells on both ends of the ribbon, which made a crisp and pleasant sound when it was shaken.

When Yun Chenyu saw her, a hint of surprise and familiarity flashed in his eyes.

He always felt that he had seen those eyes somewhere.

"Your servant Yun Chenyu pays homage to Princess Laihuang." He bowed.

"I'll trouble you today, Master Yun."

Jin Jiusi smiled and nodded, motioning Yun Chenyu to follow.

The two of them rode together to the villa outside the palace.

Along the way, Yun Chenyu remained silent, but his mind was full of thoughts.

When they arrived at the villa, Jin Jiusi got out of the car and walked lightly into the yard.

Yun Chenyu followed behind, his eyes vaguely fixed on her.

"Lord Yun, what do you think of this villa?" Jin Jiusi turned around and looked at Yun Chenyu with a smile in his eyes.

Yun Chenyu came back to his senses and quickly replied, "This place is quiet and peaceful. It's a nice place."

Jin Jiusi smiled slightly, turned around and walked to a peach tree, reaching out to catch a falling petal, "I think it's good too."

Yun Chenyu looked at her back and couldn't help feeling a little dazed.

So similar...

In one morning, Jin Jiusi walked all the way from the villa to the jewelry store and pastry shop on the street.

When Yun Chenyu came out of the villa, Jin Jiusi sent him away.

After all, he is the prime minister of a dynasty. If he really accompanies her in wandering around and is taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives, the only one who will have a headache will be Feng Qiansu.

Just when she wanted to go into the teahouse to rest, a fat young man in red clothes stopped her.

"My dear, I have been paying attention to you for a long time. Would you be so kind as to have some tea with me?"

"Which opera troupe is this from?" Jin Jiusi tilted his head and asked Hong Que, the palace maid assigned to her by Qi Lingyue.

"Your Highness, this person is not an actor, but Jun Muling, the young master of the Duke's Mansion." Hong Que walked to her side and said in a low voice.

Upon hearing this, Jin Jiusi said with a half-smile, "Oh, I thought she was from some opera troupe. Turns out she's from the Duke's Mansion."

Her voice was loud and immediately attracted the attention of the people around her.

When Jun Muling heard this, his smile grew even brighter. He thought Jin Jiusi was afraid of the reputation of his Duke's Mansion, so he immediately became arrogant, "How about it, little beauty, are you willing to have tea with this prince now?"

However, Jin Jiusi only glanced at him indifferently, then smiled and said, "Okay, since the prince has sincerely invited me, I can't refuse his kindness."

"Your Highness..." Hongling was a little worried.

Jin Jiusi waved to her, and after she came over, he whispered a few words in her ear, and then walked into the teahouse with Jun Muling under the gaze of everyone.

The waiter led them to the best private room and asked with a polite smile, "Excuse me, gentlemen, what would you like to order? This is our teahouse's latest menu. Please take a look."

Jun Muling took the recipe from the waiter and handed it to Jin Jiusi readily, "Of course, it's based on the beauty's ideas."

Jin Jiusi secretly found it funny but remained calm on the surface.

She raised her eyes, looked at Jun Muling, and said slowly: "Are you sure you want me to order?" After that, she took the recipe.

Jun Muling laughed heartily and said generously, "As long as the beauty is happy, anything is fine."

Kong Kong: Tsk tsk tsk, this silly son of a landlord has been waiting for you to say this.

Jin Jiusi flipped through the menu and said meaningfully, "Are you sure you want me to place the order, my Lord?"

"Of course, beautiful lady, just order whatever you want." Jun Muling said generously.

Jin Jiusi raised the corner of his mouth slightly and handed the recipe back to the waiter, "Then serve all the dishes listed above."

"Wha...what?!"

Jun Muling and the waiter both widened their eyes and looked at Jin Jiusi in disbelief.

Jin Jiusi looked at him with a half-smile, "Why, Prince, are you going back on your word? You just told me to order whatever I want."

"No... no, of course not."

Jun Muling gritted his teeth. Even though his heart was bleeding, he still said in order to maintain his reputation, "This prince has said what he means. It is hard to go back on your words. It's just a few dishes. However, with so many dishes, my beauty and I can't finish them all."

"Just pay the money, Prince." Jin Jiusi replied.

"Hehe, Prince, the rule of our teahouse is to pay first and eat later. This dish costs a total of five thousand taels of silver." The waiter scratched his head and explained.

Jin Jiusi supported his chin and looked at Jun Muling, signaling him with his eyes to pay quickly.

Jun Muling's face looked a little ugly, but he still took out five thousand taels of silver notes.

The waiter took the banknote excitedly, opened the door and walked out with the recipe in his hand, looking gloating.

Soon after, sumptuous dishes were placed on seven or eight tables and chairs at the entrance of the teahouse.

Kong Kong: [Master, here I come.]

As soon as Kong Kong finished speaking, a large group of refugees and beggars rushed to the door of the teahouse.

It turned out that just now Jin Jiusi had instructed Hong Que to gather the beggars and refugees, saying that the prince of the Duke's Mansion could not bear to see the refugees starving and begging, so he specially prepared a banquet in the teahouse to entertain everyone today.

Jin Jiusi looked at the picture sent by Kong Kong and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

As the crowd poured in, the originally spacious teahouse became crowded.

After waiting for a long time, the food still didn't come, so Jun Muling ordered the attendant who had been standing outside the door to go and see what was going on.

Not long after, the attendant returned and reported with a look of horror: "Prince...Prince, there are many beggars and refugees outside the teahouse. The teahouse brought all the dishes outside and they ate them."

"What? You're so bold! Call the shopkeeper up to see me." Jun Muling slammed the table in anger when he heard that.

But the follower hesitated and lowered his head without moving.

"What's going on?" Jun Muling's face instantly turned gloomy when he saw this.

"The shopkeeper said that it was... your order. He said that you couldn't bear to see the refugees and beggars without enough food, so you specially held a banquet in the teahouse to entertain them today." The follower replied tremblingly.

Jun Muling laughed angrily, "When did I..."

Suddenly, he remembered something and turned to look at Jin Jiusi who was sitting opposite him. "It's you! You gave this prince's kindness to those untouchables?"

But he saw Jin Jiusi looking at him with a smile, "Prince, listen carefully, they are grateful for your kindness." Her voice was tinged with teasing.

Jun Muling gnashed his teeth and said, "You, you dare to plot against this prince!" After saying that, he suddenly smiled, his eyes full of greed, "However, five thousand taels in exchange for a beauty, this prince is not at a loss."

Jin Jiusi glanced at Jun Muling indifferently, took out a token made of pure gold from his sleeve and placed it on the table.

The follower lowered his head, looked up secretly, and just one glance made him kneel to the ground.

Jun Muling was shocked when he saw the patterns and words carved on the token.

His face turned pale instantly, and he pointed at Jin Jiusi with a trembling finger, stammering, "You...you are..."

"When I go back, I will tell my royal brother the truth about the good deeds of the prince today. I believe my royal brother will reward the Duke's Mansion well." Jin Jiusi smiled, put away the token, stood up and left gracefully.

Jun Muling was left collapsed on the ground, filled with regret.
