Shunyang didn't know that Su Jiaojiao's usual passionate opening remarks would almost bankrupt him.
She has lived in the palace since she was a child. Although her mother-in-law died young, she was raised by Empress Jiang on the surface. Although her treatment was not as good as Princess Qingyang's, it was not bad.
In addition, she is cautious and very good at pleasing Queen Jiang and Princess Qingyang, so she has saved a lot of money for her daily life.
At that time, Princess Shunyang could be said to be the most hidden and richest among the princesses in the palace.
She has always been good at amassing money. Until Su Nianyun got married, her financial resources could be described as "strong".
However, this was only before Queen Jiang lost power.
Empress Jiang was exposed by Concubine Li for poisoning the prince, and she became the target of thousands of accusations for a while.
As for her, she had also used those medicines and was involved in them. In order to avoid everyone's attention and prevent herself from becoming a sacrifice in the concubine's struggle, she consciously stayed behind closed doors to reduce her sense of existence.
Although Shunyang did not leave the palace to protect herself, she also knew everything about the major events inside and outside the palace.
She is able to know the world's affairs behind closed doors, thanks to the charm of money.
When Queen Jiang was thrown into the cold palace and the Prince of the East Palace also stepped down, she burst into tears and cried for everyone.
When the dust in the harem settled down again, she reappeared in front of everyone, and she analyzed the right time based on the news from the outside world.
Thanks to being shut in for this year, she has used up almost half of her savings.
As for the remaining half, she used it to please the people around the Queen Mother.
So she actually doesn't have much money on her own anymore.
However, in order to leave a good impression in front of Xiao Changfeng and to squeeze out Su Nianyun, she pretended to be generous with jade-faced agar.
If she wants to pretend, Su Nianyun will naturally give her the opportunity to pretend.
As long as Jade Face Agar can make money, even if enemies come in to buy things, Su Nianyun will definitely handle the relationship gracefully.
She was severely let down in her previous life. In this life, Su Nianyun only likes money.
After Su Nianyun thanked Shunyang, he immediately generously asked Su Jiaojiao to introduce him.
Su Jiaojiao had already understood it and specially picked up the most expensive things to introduce to Su Nianyun.
"You two ladies, I think your skin is very good. If you use our facial oil, your face will definitely look better!"
"Really?" Su Nianyun asked unconfidently, "Will it really look better?"
"Of course, miss," Su Jiaojiao picked up a powder on the cabinet and introduced, "For example, this box of powder, do you know what is used in it?"
"What?" Su Nianyun asked pretending to be curious.
"This is the best pearl-ground powder from the East China Sea. After applying it, your skin will immediately become white, delicate and moist..."
Su Nianyun was extremely surprised, "Is it really so magical?"
"Yes, Miss, this is the best-selling jade-faced agar powder. Many noble ladies come to our jade-faced agar and ask for this one."
"There is such a magical thing in the world?"
Su Nianyun stared at the powder box in a daze.
"Princess Nianyun, if you like it, don't hesitate to buy it directly." Shunyang whispered in Su Nianyun's ear.
"Okay," Su Nianyun nodded happily, "I'll pay now."
"Princess Nianyun, what's going on? You just agreed that I would pay."
"Then... thank you so much Shunyang..."
Su Nianyun was grateful and said, "I have stayed in Mobei for a long time, and my skin has become much rougher."
"Boss, do you have anything else to recommend?"
Su Jiaojiao nodded and said immediately, "Miss, it turns out you came back from Mobei. Everyone knows that Mobei is windy and sandy, and the sun is also strong..."
"But, you know what?"
"This best facial cream is also developed using herbs from Mobei..."
"The medicinal materials in Mobei are excellent in resisting wind, sand and sun exposure."
"Really?" Su Nianyun said in surprise, "It turns out that as a Mobei person, I only know about such a thing."
"You two, follow me to the second floor. The things on the second floor are more comprehensive."
The second floor was specially set up by Su Nianyun to observe the downstairs.
From the top, you can have a panoramic view of what's going on on the first floor.
"These are so expensive..." After going to the second floor, Su Nianyun took another look at the prices on the second floor, and felt sad.
Shunyang said hurriedly, "Princess Nianyun, we agreed that I will pay your bill today. I want to buy anyway, so just buy as much as you like."
"Anyway, I have to bring something good to the lady in the palace in the end, so you really don't have to feel bad anymore. I will pay the bill together."
Su Nianyun nodded, then looked at Su Jiaojiao, "All the signature items on the second floor have been wrapped for me..."
"I am so impressed by the generosity of these two ladies!"
While Su Jiaojiao praised them, she carefully packaged the items that Su Nianyun was interested in.
When the final bill was handed to Su Hua and Shunyang finally settled the bill, he was really shocked.
"this……"
"A few bottles of facial makeup powder cost thousands of taels of silver?"
Shunyang was shocked.
"Miss, our jade-faced agar is famous in the capital, and the things we use are of the highest quality."
"The best pearls, the best medicinal materials, the best containers..."
Su Jiaojiao explained to her where all the jade-faced agar-agar items were found.
Shunyang couldn't listen to this at all.
She had everything in her body and came out with only a thousand taels of silver notes.
She really didn't expect that jade-faced agar-agar products would be so expensive.
Seeing Su Nianyun holding the rouge and gouache with a smile, looking like a villain who has succeeded, she was so angry that the long nails on her hands were broken.
"Xiao Changfeng..."
By the time Su Nianyun finished shopping, Zhao Chengji had already gotten on the carriage.
This day was both interesting and boring for him.
"Little Xiaohou..."
The eyes of Zhao Chengji and Xiao Changfeng met in the air, and Su Nianyun could already see the strong smell of gunpowder between them.
"Today, I am tired, so I will go back to my house first. We will discuss the matter later."
"I sincerely follow the teachings of His Royal Highness," Xiao Changfeng said in a low voice.
"Shunyang, what are you doing standing still? I'll take you back?"
Zhao Chengji looked at Shunyang, "Since just now, haven't I been calling you to get in the car? Didn't you hear it?"
"But, I..." Shunyang didn't want to go back yet.
She finally left the palace, but was seduced by Su Nianyun and spent so much money.
She has spent so much money, but she still can't get a word from Xiao Changfeng. Isn't this a loss?
"We are very tired after walking all the way. Now that we have finished shopping, how about going to a teahouse to have tea?" Shunyang really wanted to suggest drinking tea.
Su Nianyun nodded, "Okay, a new teahouse has opened in the east of the city. The tea there is the most delicious. Let's go there..."
"Chengdong?" Shunyang was stunned.
"Yes," Su Nianyun nodded, "I thought it was rare for Princess Shunyang to leave the palace."
"Since I took you to drink the best fish soup, then I will take you to see the best in the capital. This will be worthy of your status as the prince!"
"No need," Zhao Chengji said, "I have been busy for a long time and I am already tired. I will go back and rest now!"
He and Shunyang are the same but different.
Shunyang could not leave the palace and was very passive when seeing Xiao Changfeng.
He lived in the Prince's Mansion and wanted to see Su Nianyun, but he was not on that day.
Therefore, knowing that Su Nianyun was deliberately making things difficult today, he didn't care at all.
"Shunyang, get in the car and I'll take you back to the palace."
"But..." Shunyang wanted to persist a little longer.
Why is it that every time she deals with Xiao Changfeng, she is always one step behind.
In all these years, I haven't had a chance to get my wish.
This time, she finally got out of the palace, and she really wanted to seize this opportunity.
Just give her a chance, a serious chance to talk to Xiao Changfeng alone.
She believed that as long as she had this opportunity, Xiao Changfeng would become interested in her and stop being obsessed with Su Nianyun.
"Shunyang, get in the car!" This time, Zhao Chengji's voice was cold and warning.
