The Pampered Empress in a Matriarchal Society [Reborn]

Ye Jitang wanted to catch up with her, but before leaving, she picked up the jade hairpin again, and twisted it around with her slender white fingers, which made the vendors nervous. They stretched out their trembling hands and tried to catch the hairpin the moment it fell.

"Here are thirty taels. I'll take it."

"My Lord is very generous."

Zhong Song staggered to Ye Jitang's side, and felt a pang of pain when he saw the jade hairpin in her hand, which was not of good quality. Is it worth thirty taels?

Ye Jitong sneered and said meaningfully, "I'd love to."

"My lord, there are so many restless people around the young master. I just heard that those two people want to do something dirty to the young master."

"Yeah."

...

"Young master, why are we running?"

After running for an unknown distance, Lu Yanxiu finally stopped. His little face was red and there was a blush in the corners of his eyes. He stood aside and gasped for breath. The secretary was also tired and out of breath. He was originally a little cold, but after this, let alone the cold, he felt that he was almost suffocating from the heat.

"That person guessed we were not from Xiyun as soon as she came. What if her voice was loud enough and Lin Wu and the others found us? I went out to shop, but I went through a dog hole. It's not worth it to go back like this."

Lu Yanxiu walked on the street absent-mindedly. The face of that person just now appeared in his mind. A hand waved in front of him. Lu Yanxiu came back to see the puzzled look of the servant. He coughed softly and said in a concealing tone, "I was thinking about the jade hairpin just now. Do you think we should go buy it?"

"Young Master..."

The secretary was a little embarrassed. He wanted to remind his prince that they were not here for fun but for marriage. However, he couldn't say it when it came to his lips. But Lu Yanxiu understood. He slowly squatted on the ground with his hands on his knees. He was so small and looked aggrieved. Lu Yanxiu buried his little face in his arms and said in a low and hoarse voice, "I know, we won't go. I don't want the jade hairpin, I don't want..."

The snow was getting heavier and heavier. The two didn't walk on the street for long before going back. However, when they went back, Lu Yanxiu deliberately passed by the opposite side of the small shop and stood there for a while before leaving. He would enter the palace tomorrow, so today's hurried meeting should be buried in today.

At night, Lu Yanxiu was ready to go to bed after taking a bath with the help of the maid. However, Lin Wu suddenly pushed the door open with a tray in his hand. The maid looked at Lin Wu vigilantly, "Your Highness is ready to go to bed. I wonder what Chief Steward Lin wants to do."

Lin Wu ignored the maid's vigilance and walked to the table with the tray. "Your Highness will go to the palace to pay homage to the Emperor of Xiyun tomorrow. After that, Your Highness will be a citizen of Xiyun. There are some things I still need to tell Your Highness. After all, Your Highness is here to marry. If you serve the Queen of Xiyun well, Beichen will have time to breathe. I came here today to teach Your Highness how to serve a woman."

"No need, Chief Steward Lin, please go back."

The maid stood in front of Lin Wu and prevented him from getting close to his own prince. Lin Wu was a person close to the Queen. Although he had never shown it, who knew if he had something bad in his heart? He had never left His Highness' side all the way. He was about to enter the palace, and nothing could happen at this time.
