The first stop that Chu Qingyao had chosen was Central Street, which was the most prosperous district of the capital. It was said that every inch of land was worth a lot of money, so many people tried their hardest to find a shop here.

"Mistress, the shop that Miss left behind is the Atractylodes chinensis Schneid in front. It has always been selling the most popular jewelry in the capital."

"Qing Yi, have you been here before?"

Qing Yi's face reddened, "This servant has often come over for the old lady. The madame has never allowed the Han Family to interfere in the shop's matters. "

Chu Qingyao felt a wave of gratitude in her heart. It seemed like the madame was really thinking for the original owner's sake.

The horse carriage stopped in front of the jewelry store, and many people could be seen coming and going. It seemed that business was booming.

"Master, let's go in!"

Chu Qingyao told the carriage driver not to wait here, it would be fine if they just waited till noon to pick up the driver. When the two of them entered Atractylodes chinensis Schneid, they instantly felt the light in front of them, and all kinds of gold and silver pearl jade ornaments appeared in front of their eyes, causing them to feel much more relaxed.

"Only sell these here?" Chu Qingyao roughly glanced at the store. The shop was very large and there were quite a few customers, but the decorations were all of a common style.

"Mistress, we don't sell any of the newly-designed accessories. If there are guests visiting, we'll have to go to the private room to pick them out." Qing Yi explained with a smile.

"Sister Qing Yi." One of the employees saw Qing Yi and greeted him politely.

Seeing that Chu Qingyao did not say a word, Qing Yi waved his hands and told the shop assistant to entertain the guests.

"Qing Yi, let's take a look outside first." Chu Qingyao was not in a hurry to see the shopkeeper. She wanted to first understand the sales situation.

"Sister Qing Yi, the Manager Li told me that he picked a few new items and told you to go over and take a look. If it's okay, then get someone else to do it." A doorman shouted to Qing Yi.

"Master …"

"You go first, don't worry about me."

Qing Yi thought that since it was his own shop, Miss Liu would be fine, so he left in a hurry. Chu Qingyao's gaze landed on the counter, staring at the accessories one by one.

"Chu Qingyao, why are you here?" A sudden voice startled Chu Qingyao.

She looked over coldly to see that Xuanyuan Rui was staring at her. Beside him, the person who looked like a little bird was the murderer who killed the original owner, Chu Yuer.

She swept a glance at the two of them and calmly shifted her gaze away, completely ignoring them.

"Chu Qingyao, are you deaf?" Xuanyuan Rui pushed Chu Yuer aside, stopping Chu Qingyao.

[Are you asking for a beating?] Chu Qingyao sneered.

Seeing her ridiculing expression, Chu Yuer opened her mouth first, "Elder sister, even if you marry the Fourteenth Imperial Uncle, you can't ignore the Crown Prince!"

"It's rare that His Highness still remembers that the person I'm married to is the Fourteenth Imperial Uncle. Then why didn't he even call out the imperial aunt's name and instead scolded me with his surname?"

Chu Yuer's face turned pale, she had dug a hole and jumped in it for him.

Afraid that the crown prince would blame him, he quickly explained, "Elder sister, you misunderstood Big Brother Rui." Chu Yuer went forward to pull her away, but she dodged. She was so angry that her face was flushed red, but she couldn't say anything.

Xuanyuan Rui saw that Chu Qingyao did not even look at him, and his self-esteem suffered a huge blow. Didn't she always like him, always yelling that he wouldn't marry her? Why was it that in just a few months, she had become so unfamiliar with him?

"Chu Qingyao, what are you doing here?" Do you have the money to buy it? "

Chu Qingyao laughed lightly. If Tianchong were to fall into the hands of such a person, he would be in trouble.

"What is the Crown Prince saying? Are you laughing at the fact that your Fourteenth Imperial Uncle can't afford to raise women?" If he wanted to fight with her, Xuanyuan Rui was still a little too inexperienced.

Xuanyuan Rui was so angry that his face and neck were red, he angrily pointed at her, "Chu Qingyao, don't slander me."

The more he was like this, the calmer Chu Qingyao became.

She looked around, and seeing that no one was picking anymore, she asked loudly, "Did you all hear that just now? His Highness the Crown Prince said that I can't afford the things here. I am the Prince Zhi's Concubine, and when he says that I cannot afford it, he is humiliating the roasting king. "

Xuanyuan Zhi was a god-like existence in the hearts of the commoners. After hearing Chu Qingyao's words, everyone cast dissatisfied gazes at the crown prince. If not for his special identity, people would have rushed over to beat him up.

Seeing that Chu Qingyao had easily provoked everyone, Chu Yuer glared at her with resentment and quickly tried to smooth things over, "Elder sister, roasting king is the Fourteenth Imperial Uncle's Fourteenth Imperial Uncle, he still doesn't have enough respect, why would he say such things? The Big Brother Rui was crying out for injustice for the Fourteenth Imperial Uncle! I heard that when elder sister married into the prince's mansion, she didn't even bring a single copper coin as a dowry. "

After Chu Yuer finished speaking, he looked at Chu Qingyao with a complacent look.

Everyone knew that a woman without dowry had no status in the husband's family. No matter how rich the roasting king was, it was not your turn to spend it.

Chu Qingyao almost clapped for Chu Yuer. She really didn't know if Chu Yuer was smart or stupid, she had married without any dowry, wasn't it because of your mother? Are you afraid that the whole world wouldn't know that your mother was such a mean daughter?

Under the gazes of everyone present, she suddenly lowered her head. When she raised her head, her eyes were already red.

"Little sister, I know that the Madam doesn't like me, but she is in the wrong to take away my dowry. But you can't betray my wife just because we're sisters! "What if you don't bring your dowry when you get married, even if you anger her?"

Chu Yuer was shocked by Chu Qingyao's ability to invert black and white, and he couldn't shut his mouth for a long time. Chu Qingyao, you are so shameless, who wants to stand up for you? Who has a sisterly relationship with you?

"You're lying, why wouldn't my mother send me my dowry?" Chu Yuer was furious.

"If little sister didn't say it, I would have forgotten. You are the madam's biological daughter, so the dowry she prepared for you is naturally …" "Very generous." Chu Qingyao spoke in a very tactful manner, causing everyone around to have an expression of realization.

"No wonder the previous Madam's daughter didn't bring any dowry when she got married. She left it all for her daughter!"

"This Madame Chu is really black-hearted. Who doesn't know that the Chu Clan is rich and powerful? It's all because of Madam Xian."

"I say that stealing the dowry isn't a big deal. But didn't they also steal the marriage of the direct daughter?" The person who said that intentionally indicated towards Xuanyuan Rui with his mouth.

Then, everyone shook their heads.

"Shut up." Xuanyuan Rui hated it the most when others compared him to Chu Qingyao. He pulled Chu Yuer over, "The marriage was not fought over by Yu'er, it was me who did not like Chu Qingyao, it was I who did not want her first."

Chu Qingyao's face turned cold. How dare the scumbag act so arrogantly in front of her eyes? Today was a day to teach him a lesson.

Before she could react, another familiar voice sounded from behind her.

"Chu Qingyao, you shameless woman, the crown prince doesn't want you anymore, so why don't you just enter the Prince Zhi's Mansion?"

Chu Qingyao turned her head, meeting He Lanxi's provocative gaze. Today, He Lanxi was dressed in white, making her look even more cold and arrogant.

Chu Qingyao felt that she really hadn't checked the time when she had left the house. How could she have met these two women at the same time?

She laughed lightly, "He Lanxi, if you want to talk about evidence, how am I going to turn it down? Everyone knows that I was married into the Prince Zhi's Mansion and I didn't even bring a single copper coin in. "

He Lanxi walked to the opposite of Chu Qingyao, and sneered disdainfully, "Chu Qingyao, I heard that your highness didn't even want to marry you that day, so I intentionally made it difficult for you to get married in the middle of the night. When we arrived at the Royal Mansion and they didn't let you in, it was you who brazenly knocked on the door. "

Chu Qingyao met He Lanxi's envious eyes, and suddenly became confident. She had a feeling that He Lanxi did not enter Xuanyuan Zhi's eyes at all. If he was interested in her, she wouldn't need to be jealous of him.

When Chu Qingyao had knocked on the door of the Duke's Palace that day, she had also wanted to risk her life to cure Xuanyuan Zhi. If she lived, otherwise, she would definitely die.

"From what this wangfei knows, not just anyone can knock on the door to the palace. Could it be that you've knocked on the door before, Princess He Lan? He was even rejected? Otherwise, why would you be so envious of this wangfei? "

Being provoked by her, He Lanxi became angry from embarrassment, "Chu Qingyao, what sort of identity do you have to be able to make this princess jealous?" Only she herself understood that she was extremely jealous in her heart, wishing that she could kill Chu Qingyao herself and become the brother Zhi's wangfei.

Before, when Chu Qingyao hadn't appeared, she still felt that there was hope. But now, because of this woman, all of her dreams were shattered. Last time, she was clearly poisoned by this woman, but brother Zhi actually ignored her and followed this woman away.

She did not have the slightest bit of hatred towards Chu Qingyao.

Chu Qingyao gave a faint smile, "Since you're not jealous, then princess, you can leave now. This wangfei is generous and won't fuss about your rudeness. "

"You …" He Lanxi's beautiful face turned green and red.

"Elder sister, although you have become a Prince Zhi's Concubine, you can't bully Princess He Lan either, right?" Chu Yuer seized the chance, "If one day the princess also enters the Prince Zhi's Mansion, you guys are sisters."

He Lanxi was elated after hearing what Chu Yuer said. She stepped forward and held her hand, "If the Chu Family's daughter is like little sister Yu, then I will be at ease with brother Zhi."

Chu Qingyao almost laughed out loud. She had truly taken herself seriously, she remembered that last time in the little black room, she had poisoned He Lanxi without even giving him a glance.

Humans! You need to know your own name.

"Mistress." When Qing Yi came out from the backyard, he knew that someone was looking for trouble with his master.

"Qing Yi, instruct the shopkeeper to kick everyone out, Atractylodes chinensis Schneid is not doing business today." Chu Qingyao was satisfied to see Xuanyuan Rui and He Lanxi staring with wide eyes, but did not explain anything to them.

"Everyone, I am truly sorry. Today, the owner of the store is here to patrol the store. Business is temporarily suspended." Qing Yi immediately asked to disperse the customers.

Seeing some of the customers looking unsatisfied, Chu Qingyao called out to Qing Yi, "Bring ten copper coins to every customer who comes to Atractylodes chinensis Schneid to honor your honor."

As these words fell, the crowd that had been distracted a moment ago immediately broke into smiles. Many of them clasped their hands at Chu Qingyao, "Many thanks, Boss."

"Everyone, don't leave. Don't be fooled by her. What did this woman think she was? can even become the master of a Atractylodes chinensis Schneid? " Xuanyuan Rui's first reaction was that Chu Qingyao was lying.

He Lanxi stared at Chu Qingyao, wanting to find some clues on her face. However, Chu Qingyao had a faint smile on her face, looking calm and collected, as though she had a lot of confidence.

When the people who were just about to leave heard Xuanyuan Rui's words, they all looked towards Chu Qingyao in doubt.

Qing Yi had already taken out his money box and was standing at the door, "This guest, come and get it, here are your ten coins."

The one who stood at the door was an aunt, she received the copper coin doubtfully, and Qing Yi gave her another sentence, "Go well, welcome to continue visiting Atractylodes chinensis Schneid tomorrow."

Xuanyuan Rui felt that he had been slapped in his face. His face was ashen as he glared at Chu Qingyao and questioned, "When did the Atractylodes chinensis Schneid land in your hands?"

A few days ago, he had taken a fancy to this area and expended a great deal of effort, but he was unable to get a single shop here. And the Chu Qingyao that he had always ignored was actually the boss behind the Atractylodes chinensis Schneid. How could he accept this?

"Why should I explain this wangfei's things to you?" Chu Qingyao's cold eyes narrowed.

"Chu Qingyao, you're too presumptuous!"

Chu Qingyao's face sank, "His Highness the Crown Prince is the one who is truly impudent. Not only is he disrespectful towards his elders, he even loudly rebukes them. He's not afraid of humiliating the imperial family!"

The Crown Prince's face was livid with anger. He was so angry that he couldn't say anything for a long time.

"Chu Qingyao, whose shop is this?" He Lanxi looked at Atractylodes chinensis Schneid in envy. How much silver does this shop earn? With this Atractylodes chinensis Schneid, who would care about the Chu Family marrying him?

Chu Qingyao stepped forward and used a voice that only two people could hear, "Of course it's the prince's reward for me."

He Lanxi's face paled, this was impossible! brother Zhi didn't even like her, how could he give her such a precious thing?

Xuanyuan Rui glanced at Chu Yuer, who snapped out of his shock and pretended to be friendly with her, "Big sister, is this shop really yours?"
