Oops, the princess is surrounded by the male protagonists

"Oh, so that's it. Then I must ask the prince what this treasure is when I have the chance!"

Bai Yue nodded perfunctorily, and then she thought that if she had the chance she must meet with Yun Qingchi and ask him to help her keep an eye out for a suitable mansion.

"Butler Zhou, the shopkeepers from Duobao Pavilion, Qiushuixuan, and Xiangxuefang are all waiting outside the courtyard with their merchandise!"

Just then a maid walked up to Butler Zhou and bowed slightly to report.

"Huh? Aren't these shops selling clothes and jewelry? What are they doing here?"

Bai Yue was very familiar with the names of these shops, because when she pretended to be Bai Dazhuang, she would sometimes be called to help out in these places.

"Oh my, Your Highness, the reason they came here is to invite you to choose and see which treasures catch your eye!"

"The prince has said that you must buy everything you see. If you like every piece, you can keep them all!"

After saying this, he winked at the maid, who understood and ran out of the door. After a while, she led a group of people holding various silks, satins, and pearl jewelry into the yard.

"Greetings to Her Royal Highness! I am the head shopkeeper of Qiushui Pavilion. Look, what I have displayed behind me are all this year's most fashionable clothes, especially this Three Gentlemen bellyband, which comes in three styles. If you wear it, I guarantee that His Majesty will be unable to take his eyes off you!"

"Your Highness, you must take a look at our Duobaoxuan's new emerald cat's eye pendant. This pendant is made of cat's eye stone, which is unique to Tianji Country. I heard that this gem can bewitch people. If the princess dangles it on her chest, the prince will be so fascinated by you that he will be unable to move his feet!"

"No, no, no, Your Highness, you must not miss our Xiangxuefang's latest masterpiece—Ylang Ylang perfume! This perfume, one sniff, will make you intoxicated and forget about returning. If you use it, Princess, I guarantee that the prince will stick to you every day and won't be able to leave!"

The crowd surged like a tide, and everyone was eager to show her their products. Every time Bai Yue refused, new products would be added. The whole yard seemed to have turned into a lively sales feast.

When Yun Qingjie entered the bedroom, he saw Bai Yue sitting at the eight-immortals table with a look of despair on her face.

Around her, five or six maids were gently waving their palm-leaf fans. After seeing Yun Qingjie, they stopped what they were doing and bowed to him.

"Xiaoyue, what are you doing..."

Yun Qingjie had just started to speak when he was interrupted by Bai Yue's sudden action. She rushed in front of him, clasped her hands together and begged.

"Your Highness, could you please stop sharing this little world with me? I naturally love quiet and quiet, and I really don't need so many people waiting on me!"

Yun Qingjie looked at Bai Yue's aggrieved look and couldn't help but burst out laughing. Then, he gently pecked the other's cheek and turned around to call out loudly to the outside of the door.

"Butler Zhou, please come in!"

"Your Highness, are there not enough servants here? Do you want to add a few more?"

Butler Zhou hurriedly crossed the threshold, and Yun Qingjie gave orders.

"From now on, no one is needed to serve here. If this king needs anything, he will come to the main courtyard to summon him!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Butler Zhou said in fear and trepidation.

"Oh, this is unacceptable, Your Majesty! You are a royal family, how can you be without..."

Butler Zhou had just said half of his words when Yun Qingjie suddenly interrupted him by taking Bai Yue into his arms.

"Who told you I have no one to serve me? Don't you see that Her Royal Highness is getting ready to make a move, just waiting to serve me well after you leave?"

"Yes, I'll leave right away!"

Butler Zhou now understood what his prince meant, so he gestured to the surroundings, and the maids retreated with him.

"Huh~, they're finally leaving!"

Bai Yue had just breathed a sigh of relief when Yun Qingjie picked her up and placed her steadily on his lap.

"Tell me, are there any of these things I brought to you today that caught your eye? If you want anything new and interesting, just let me know and I'll have someone bring it back to you tomorrow. I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"

Yun Qingjie gently played with Bai Yue's slender fingers, and there was an unquestionable doting in his tone.

"I am deeply grateful for your kindness, Your Highness, but I really don't dare to accept those things."

As soon as she finished speaking, Yun Qingjie grabbed her chin, forcing their eyes to meet.

"Oh? What do you mean by that? Are you dissatisfied with the gift I gave you?"

"Your Highness has misunderstood. Those things are simply too expensive. A small bellyband costs 200 taels of silver. If converted into steamed buns, that's the equivalent of 20,000 buns!"

"And that perfume costs 50 taels of silver. Well, if it were replaced with candied haws, wouldn't that be a total of 5 strings?"

"besides…"

"Alright, alright, forget about the change. I'm getting a little hungry from all the talk you've given me!"

Yun Qingjie looked at Bai Yue with a helpless look, and the other party's eyes lit up and he quickly spoke.

"Your Highness, I think you haven't had dinner yet. If you don't mind, would you like to try my cooking?"

"can you cook?"

"Of course, and it's to a level that would satisfy Lord Bao! So, Your Highness, could you please let me go first? I promise to cook you a few dishes right away!"

After half an incense stick of time, Bai Yue brought four dishes and a soup and placed them on the eight-immortal table.

Yun Qingjie couldn't help but feel hungry when he smelled the tempting aroma, and just as he was savoring it with relish, Bai Yue looked at him with her chin supported by her hands and said.

"Your Majesty, I truly appreciate your kindness. Instead of giving me those expensive gifts, I think you should turn them into silver and distribute them to the people in need!"

"I heard that last year, we suffered a great epidemic here. You can use this silver to help the people..."

She had barely said half of her words when Yun Qingjie suddenly gave her a kiss, gently and domineeringly snatching away all her words.

When this lingering kiss slowly came to an end, the intertwined scent of the two still lingered in the air.

The other party did not say anything, but just stared at her for a long time and affectionately as if he was meeting her for the first time.

Just when Bai Yue wanted to say something, the other party suddenly took her hand and said with a smile.

"Xiaoyue, have you ever heard of the saying 'When you are well fed and warm, you will think about sex'?"

"Hey, Your Majesty, you're not full and ready to mess with the cook, are you?"
