Reborn, meet you again!

Chapter 67 Seeking an Audience with the Regent

When the shopkeeper heard that the price was not a problem, the smile on his face became more sincere. He immediately winked at the waiter and told him to bring up a lot of things.

Of course, these are items that sound great but in reality cannot be sold for a long time.

As soon as Luoluo saw the things on the table, she knew what the shopkeeper was planning. She glanced at her young lady's expression and saw that she nodded at her.

She immediately said to the shopkeeper in a bad mood.

"Shopkeeper Lin, we only realized how much we lost after buying something from you last time."

"My young lady doesn't want to make a fuss and is still willing to come today. Is that why Shopkeeper Lin is just giving her these things to please her?"

"Shopkeeper Lin is doing business this way. We won't dare to come next time."

Luoluo picked out a few of the things that Shopkeeper Lin brought up and evaluated them one by one.

Every word hits the point.

Shopkeeper Lin was speechless for a moment.

This is really weird. In just one month, this girl's vision has become so vicious.

After thinking for a moment, he apologized and scolded the guy with a smile.

"You're so tactless! Who told you to bring these things up here?"

"Didn't you hear what Miss Green Rose said? None of them work. Why don't you get another batch?"

The guy who took the blame seemed to be used to it. He nodded repeatedly and immediately took people to take away the things in front of Song Wan.

Soon a new batch came up.

When she saw the things that were put back on display, Luoluo's expression looked much better.

They were smart and didn't try to fool the young lady anymore. Did they really think her eyes were vegetarian?

Unfortunately, despite this, Song Wan still looked uninterested when looking at the newly placed items.

"The items are quite good, and they're worth giving away, but they're still a bit too common. Do you have anything more rare?"

The shopkeeper felt troubled when he saw that he had already picked out some of the best items and presented them to Miss Jiang, but she was still not satisfied.

But because of the phrase "no matter the price", I was still reluctant to give up.

A rare item?

After a quick search in his mind, Manager Lin's eyes suddenly lit up and he immediately gave instructions to the clerk beside him.

"Didn't we get a batch of imported goods a few days ago? Quick, bring them out for Miss Jiang to see."

The so-called imported goods are objects that have come from some distant foreign countries.

If you say it is rare, it is naturally unique.

The waiter immediately took the order and left. Soon, three plates of objects of different shapes were presented by several waiters.

Song Wan's eyes searched the plate carefully for a moment, and soon fixed on an object.

It was a golden mask with intricate cloud patterns carved on it, revealing only the eyes and the area below the tip of the nose, making it look extremely noble.

Song Wan suddenly thought of the pair of eyes she saw in Jun Jiuchen's carriage that day, and inexplicably felt that the owner of this mask and those eyes belonged to her.

Very suitable.

Even though he was wearing a hideous ghost mask and exuded a violent aura, he looked extremely scary and had nothing to do with the word "noble".

But she just felt that way inexplicably.

Very suitable!

The words she said in Jun Jiuchen's car: bright eyes reflecting the stars, blue eyes, square pupils and jade face, were the first thing that came to her mind after she saw those eyes.

It's not just nonsense.

"That's it!"

Song Wan picked up the mask and selected an extremely sharp dagger inlaid with gems from the plate.

Then, after some negotiation between Luoluo and the shopkeeper, Luoluo bought the two items at a price that made Shopkeeper Lin hesitate.

The carriage soon arrived at the Regent's Palace.

Jun Jiuchen was a little surprised when he heard the servant's report.

"The Jiang family?"

"Yes, that girl said she was Jiang Wanqiao, the daughter of the Jiang family, and she had something important to discuss with the prince."

Jun Jiuchen was a little confused.

He remembered that yesterday he was disturbed by the fact that Song Wan was still alive. He lost his composure for a moment and even attacked her.

Jiang Wanqiao was clearly hiding something from him again and was not telling him the truth.

No matter from which point of view, she should stay away from him at this moment.

Why did she come to my house today?

But now that the person has come, he must see it!

Jun Jiuchen thought about it and picked up the mask on the desk, covered his face with it, and stood up.

"Let her in and take her to the Rain Viewing Pavilion."

The man immediately took the order and left.

Not long after, Song Wan and his two servants were led into the Regent's Palace.

Song Wan held an umbrella and walked slowly towards an octagonal pavilion in the outer courtyard.

From a distance, I could see a person sitting in the pavilion.

The man was dressed in black with a gray cloak on the outside. There was not a trace of color on his body. Coupled with his hideous ghost face, he should have made people feel creepy.

But I don’t know if it was because of the rain pouring down from the eaves of the pavilion that blocked some of the view.

When Song Wan watched him sitting there quietly, she always felt that he was...

It reveals an inexplicable loneliness.

At the same time, a fragmented picture flashed through her mind.

That seems...

It’s in the Prime Minister’s residence.

Also in such an octagonal pavilion, there was a person sitting vaguely inside.

That also seemed to be a man.

But the scene happened so quickly that she didn't even have time to see the person's face clearly before it disappeared.

Is it the father?

Song Wan keenly realized that this was the second time she had experienced this kind of memory confusion since she survived in this body...

While they were thinking, they had already walked into the octagonal pavilion.

Song Wan collected his thoughts, handed the umbrella in his hand to Hong Shang, and bowed.

"Commoner Jiang Wanqiao greets His Majesty!"

Jun Jiuchen also withdrew his gaze from the rain curtain and fell on Song Wan.

"sit down."

"I heard from my servants that you have something to discuss with me?"

Song Wanyi sat down opposite Jun Jiuchen.

"Your Majesty, that's right!"

"I sent a visiting card yesterday, but I didn't receive a reply. I had no choice but to come to your house. I hope Your Highness will not blame me."

Jun Jiuchen naturally didn't know that Jiang Wanqiao had someone send a visiting card.

It was because after he came to Beijing, visiting cards were sent to his house like a stream, and they were all from people with ulterior motives or bad intentions.

Therefore, he had issued an order early on that except for the old members of the Mobei Army, no one else should submit their information unless they had a clear business purpose.

But none of this matters. He looked at the woman in front of him and went straight to the point.

"What's the matter? Tell me."

Song Wan had a perfect smile on her face.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"I heard from my maid that the last time I was treating a woman in labor at Jirentang, the doctor there wanted to cause trouble. Fortunately, an anonymous Black Armored Guard came to my aid."

"I met the prince at the prime minister's residence yesterday, and I discovered that this person was actually his personal guard. The prince also said that he had seen me there before. I think what happened that day must have been instructed by the prince."

"This is a thank-you gift that I carefully selected for Your Highness and the guard. It's just a token of my appreciation. Please accept it."

Jiang Wanqiao said this and asked Hongshang and Luluo to put two small and exquisite boxes on the table.

Jun Jiuchen's gaze did not fall on the brocade box, but he looked at Song Wan thoughtfully.

"Is this the 'important matter' Miss Jiang mentioned?"

The smile on Song Wan's face did not diminish.

"Of course not. I also heard that the prince has been worried about the placement of the Mobei Army recently."

"As the saying goes, a drop of kindness should be repaid with a spring. After careful consideration and discussion with my father, I have decided to use the power of the Jiang family to help His Highness resolve his problems. What do you think, His Highness?"

Hearing the words "Mobei Army", Jun Jiuchen understood.

So, this was the idea?

However, this girl is very young, and no one knows where she learned it from, but she speaks like those old foxes in the court.

It sounds beautiful, but actually...

It's all traps.

Jun Jiuchen thought about it and chuckled.

"Oh? The resettlement of the Mobei Army is not a small amount of money."

"Miss Jiang has given me gifts and spent money to repay such a small favor. Isn't this a huge advantage for me?"

"I just don't know how I can repay Miss Jiang after I took advantage of her and ended up owing her a favor."

Luoluo, who was standing behind Song Wan, couldn't help but shudder when she heard the chuckle.

I thought it would be better not to laugh since the Regent was wearing such a scary mask...

Especially in this rainy weather.

Weird and penetrating.

Song Wan, however, did not feel embarrassed at all when Jun Jiuchen exposed her thoughts.

"Your Highness, what are you talking about? Didn't I just say that I would repay a drop of kindness with a spring of gratitude?"

"However...your Highness's words just now have enlightened me. My actions are indeed inappropriate. To prevent Your Highness from feeling guilty, I have no choice but to make a few small requests, so as not to unnecessarily upset Your Highness."

Jun Jiuchen glanced at the smiling woman in front of him.

"In that case, it seems that I have no choice but to listen to Miss Jiang's "little request"."

When Song Wan heard this, the smile on her face became even more charming.

She had dressed up very carefully today, and this smile was like a spring breeze blowing on her face, making the flowers bloom, and seemed to melt away some of the continuous spring rain.

Jun Jiuchen only felt that this smile...

A bit of an eyesore.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"To be honest, Your Highness, my Jiang family's ancestral home is in Jiangnan. Unfortunately, the world is in a difficult situation now, and my father and mother had no choice but to move from Jiangnan to Shangjing to seek another way out."

"But the Jiang family is in decline, and now we are in this dangerous place in Shangjing, and I am getting more and more anxious."

"So I, a humble girl, have the audacity to ask Your Majesty to bestow upon me a piece of calligraphy to bolster the foundation of our Jiang family."
