"Madam, you have good taste. This jade bracelet is the Exquisite Jade from a remote place in the Western Region. It has been polished and carved. It's 5500 taels." The woman who received them then smiled and said to Li Mingzi.

Upon hearing this, Li Mingzi could not help but say it out loud, "What? 5500 taels?"

"Yes, Madam." The woman then smiled and said.

Li Mingzi's expression changed slightly at this time. She said, "It's too expensive."

"Madam, this jade bracelet among these Exquisite Jade is already in the medium price range. This one is 8800 teals." Then the woman pointed to another jade bracelet.

After hearing this, Yang Zijin on the side could not help but frown slightly. Did it mean that Huiyu Shop, as such a big shop, also cheated people?

Although the quality of this bracelet was very good, the price was obviously much higher. But this time she would like to trick Li Mingzi because she always pretended to be so kind in front of Yang Zijin.

At this moment, Yang Zijin stepped forward and looked at Li Mingzi. She said, "Madam, maybe we should not buy it."

"Why not? Go and package it for me!" Li Mingzi smiled stiffly at this moment. She then turned her head and said to the woman.

The woman said with a smile at this moment, "Madam, please pay the bill outside first, and I'll package it."

Li Mingzi nodded and went out of the room. When she just walked out, a disappointed expression appeared on her face, and she felt heartbroken. She spent almost all her savings on this bracelet.

At this time, Mu Yunong walked to Yang Zijin and said, "Sister, I'll see elsewhere first."

"Well, OK." Yang Zijin then nodded and said with a smile.

Then Mu Yunong went out of the room.

After Mu Yunong went out, Yang Zijin went to the woman who received her and said, "Wrap this for me, too."

Yang Zijin was pointing to the lily-shaped jade pendant that Mu Yunong preferred just now.

At this moment, the woman turned her head and said with a smile, "Your Highness, wait a moment."

Upon hearing this, Yang Zijin could not help but frown. When she came in, she did not show her identity. Why did this woman know that she was an infanta? She thought that she had recovered her identity for less than a year, and she could not be so famous.

Thinking of that, she saw that the woman wrapped the bracelet and pendant, and came here with them. She said, "Your Highness, they are both packaged."

"How much is this pendant?" Yang Zijin took them. She then looked at the woman and asked.

The woman smiled and said, "It's free."

"Free?" Yang Zijin looked at the woman wonderingly and asked.

The woman nodded at this moment and said, "My master told me that Your Highness can take some jade pieces in our shop. Besides, the money that Madam just paid for the jade bracelet is enough to buy this one."

Sure enough, she guessed right. Although she did not know how to authenticate jade, since she had been doing business for so many years, she had learned some know-how. However, she wondered who the boss of Huiyu Shop was and who was called master by this woman. Why the boss would help her?

"Who is your master?" Yang Zijin then asked the woman again.

The woman smiled gently at this time and said, "It is someone Your Highness knows."

"I know him?" Upon hearing this, Yang Zijin could not help frowning. She did not remember that she knew a friend who sold jade wares.

Besides, Huiyu Shop was set up a long time ago.

When Yang Zijin was thinking of that, Mu Yunong ran from the outside and said, "Sister, let's go down."

"OK." Yang Zijin then put things away.

Then she turned to the woman and said, "Please tell your master that I thank him very much."

"Never mind, Your Highness." The woman then said with a smile.

Then she walked downstairs with Yang Zijin.

At this time, Li Mingzi stood beside the checkout counter. She was speechless and cursing Yang Zijin in her mind. She thought that Yang Zijin was such a nasty girl. She must be intentional.

After paying the bill, Li Mingzi looked at a few hundred taels of silver left in her hand. She could not help but feel heartbroken. She had saved them up over the years. In the end, she actually spent them on a single bracelet.

Thinking of that, Li Mingzi could not help but black out. Fortunately, Mammy Chen who stood aside moved swiftly. She supported Li Mingzi immediately and asked, "Madam, are you OK?"

"OK? You are kidding me. I spent half my life's savings, but finally... unexpectedly..." Li Mingzi said and puffed.

At this time, Mammy Chen quickly helped Li Mingzi to breathe smoothly with her hands, and then advised her, "Madam, the money will come and go. Do not be angry. It's harmful to your health."

At this time, Mu Yunong saw Li Mingzi coming out from the side and shouted at the back, "Mom, you are here."

When Li Mingzi heard the voice, she quickly changed her sad expression, then pushed Mammy Chen's hands away. She forced a smile and said, "You are here."

"Thank you, Madam. I like this jade bracelet very much." Yang Zijin also stepped forward at this moment, and deliberately said loudly.

Li Mingzi said with a fake smile, "You are welcome, Qingcheng. It's getting late. Let's go back now."

"OK." Yang Zijin nodded at this moment. She then walked out of Huiyu Shop and got into the carriage.

Li Mingzi looked at the back of Yang Zijin at this time and could not help but gnash her teeth.

Then, with the help of Mammy Chen, she walked to the carriage.

When the carriage was leaving, a man sitting by the window on the second floor watched the carriage. He lifted the teacup on the table, took a sip of tea, and put it down.

At this time, the woman called Yuyan, who had received Yang Zijin, came in and said, "Your Highness, Her Highness has left."

"Did she ask anything?" The man then asked.

Yuyan nodded at this moment, and then said, "Her Highness asked who my master is."

"I see. You can go now." Then the man nodded and said to Yuyan.

After Yuyan left, the man stood up and stared at the leaving carriage through the window until he could not see it.

He still remembered that when he first met Yang Zijin at a poetry appreciation meeting, he immediately recognized that she was a girl but disguised herself as a man.

He thought Yang Zijin was brilliant, so he invited her to his mansion. Later, he did not expect that she was the daughter of Princess Nanyang.

He asked someone to check all the ins and outs of Yang Zijin. He then knew that Princess Nanyang died strangely.

Later, she regained her status as an infanta maybe because she would like to avenge Princess Nanyang.

Later, he learned that the original incident had something to do with Chushi Youtian.

Thinking of that, Lu Jing could not help admiring Yang Zijin. Since the poetry appreciation meeting, he felt that Yang Zijin was quite different from others.

It was also because of her that he had a little affection for her after being indifferent for so many years.

He felt that he could not continue to be so indifferent.

Lu Jing's father was the brother of Chushi Youtian. His name was Chushi You'an, and he was born by an imperial concubine called Lu Li.

At that time, when Emperor Emeritus decided who would become the Crown Prince, he was hesitant about Chushi Youtian and Chushi You'an and felt that both of them had their own advantages.

At that time, when there was civil strife in the frontier fortress area, Emperor Emeritus sent them to quell the unrest.

Chushi Youtian knew the fact that quelling the unrest was related to the election of the Crown Prince. Therefore, when they were quelling the unrest, Chushi Youtian schemed and misinformed Chushi You'an.

Chushi You'an fell into a trap with all the people he brought. His leg was also injured.

And Chushi Youtian finally pretended to save him.

After injured Chushi You'an went back to Jing City, he could not recover then.

He always felt that there was something wrong at that time. It was clear that he went there after receiving the information from Chushi Youtian. How could he be encircled instead?

But when he knew the truth eventually, Chushi Youtian was selected as the Crown Prince by their father.

And when Chushi You'an told the matter to their father, he only said that it had been a finality. If others knew the truth, there would be many discussions among ministers.

At that time, Chushi You'an asked Emperor Emeritus, "Dad, do you want me to accept the bitter result and keep this secret? You told me that it has been a finality, and I should pretend that I don't know it. However, I cannot stand up again."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Emeritus felt that Chushi You'an was somewhat inconsiderate, so he shouted at him.

Then Chushi You'an went out with the wheelchair silently.

Chushi You'an could not recover since he went back. He drank all day long. At that time, Lu Li was pregnant. The baby was Lu Jing.

She was also heartbroken.

One day, after Lu Li had given birth to a child, Chushi You'an hugged the baby excitedly and showed a smile that she hadn't seen for a long time.

Lu Li would have thought that Chushi You'an would get better after the baby was born.

However, Chushi You'an killed himself that night.

After Lu Li knew it, she was sad and went straight to Chushi You'an's room.

She found a letter in his hand.

Lu Li cried and opened it, only to see the words:

"In this life, I regret being a royal member. Since ancient times, brothers in the imperial family fought with each other cruelly."

"But I did not expect that it would happen to me. Now I was a cripple. I've been living like a corpse these days. Now I have finally met our children. I should go now."

"The child could use your surname. His name could be Lu Jing."

"After I die, please take care of our children and keep them away from the royal family. Never do anything stupid for me. I only hope that he will grow up safely."

"After I die, give this suicide note to His Majesty. If he still feels a little guilty about me, ask him to give you a mansion outside the palace, to confer Commandery Prince on Jing, and to give Jing a gold medal to avoid death."

"If His Majesty doesn't agree, I will have another solution. I hope His Majesty will consider the overall situation."

"By Chushi You'an."

At that time, Lu Li could not help throwing the paper to the ground. Then she held Chushi You'an and burst into tears.

She would have thought that after the birth of the child, Chushi You'an would recover slowly, but she never expected that he would leave her and their baby son.

Lu Li was saved by Chushi You'an accidentally.

Her father had been doing business outside, and then he thought about going back to Jing City to settle down. Unexpectedly, they were robbed on the way to Jing City, and the whole family was killed by robbers. When the robbers saw that Lu Li was a beauty, they wanted to rape her.

Lu Li saw that her families were all killed by robbers, and these robbers now wanted to rape her. Then she grabbed the dagger and wanted to kill herself while the robbers approached.
