Lin Jingmo and his party walked like this for seven days before arriving in Chenzhou, which is the fiefdom of King Zhao. Her own health gradually improved and she could basically move freely.
After running around for the past few days, the three of them were a little tired, so they decided to stop at an inn in Chenzhou.
When Qiaoxiang and the coachman were resting in the inn, Lin Jingmo slipped out quietly.
She walked on the boundary of Chenzhou, wandering aimlessly, thinking in her heart, how could she sneak into Prince Zhao's Mansion?
Just then, while walking around, she finally saw the plaque of Prince Zhao's Mansion.
Suddenly, the closed door of Prince Zhao's Mansion was opened, and a gorgeous sedan was carried out.
Lin Jingmo hid beside the stone lion at the entrance of Prince Zhao's Mansion. He cautiously poked his head out and saw that there were thirty or forty people accompanying him.
I couldn't help but wonder: Who on earth went out to such a big battle? Could it be Zhao Wang Qi Xuanyi?
Just as I was thinking about it, there was a huge crowd of sedans in front of me and the group was about to turn to another street.
Lin Jingmo hurriedly followed, wanting to find out.
The group of people were so majestic along the way that all pedestrians would move out of the way when they saw the sedan, until the sedan stopped at the entrance of a silk and satin shop, and a young woman with an air of nobility stepped out of the sedan.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be Chen Minran, the only daughter of Zhongshu Ling Chen Mianzheng?
Lin Jingmo and she have known each other since childhood. Chen Minran and Lin Jingmo's sister Lin Kongqing are the same age. The two learned knitting and calligraphy together, and they were very good friends. Unfortunately, their father did
The mortal enemy above the imperial court.
Now that he met Chen Minran again, Lin Jingmo didn't know whether he should be happy or worried. After all, things have changed and the two of them have long become a melancholy existence.
The wet nurse handed the baby in her arms to Chen Minran. This was her son and the eldest son of Prince Zhao's palace.
Lin Jingmo looked at the child in her arms, but she had mixed feelings in her heart: My sister could have given birth to that child, poor child, and my poor sister!
Thinking of this, a picture of Lin Kongqing's feelings for Lin Jingmo unfolded before Lin Jingmo's eyes. For a moment, she thought her sister was by her side.
It seems that Chen Minran and his party are going to choose the clothes to wear for the one-year-old prince Ma.
They were picking around but nothing was satisfactory. After a while, the store owner said to Chen Minran: "There is a batch of newly arrived fabrics from the capital in the backyard of the store. Why don't the princess follow me to the back to select again?"
Chen Minran shook his head, handed the crying prince to the wet nurse beside him, and said: "My father has sent a batch of exquisite brocades from the capital, and they are on the way now. No matter how good your materials are, they can't be compared.
The child’s grandpa personally selected it.”
The store owner asked me and said with a smile: "That's that."
Chen Minran looked at the store. After all, she was Princess Zhao. How could she come back empty-handed when she came to his store?
So he pointed at a few pieces of cloth and said: "Send it to Prince Zhao's Mansion and then ask the butler to pay."
The store owner happily agreed, nodded and bowed to see Chen Minran off.
The store owner wrapped all the pieces of fabric neatly, and then prepared to have a carriage pulled from the backyard to deliver the goods to Prince Zhao's Mansion.
When Lin Jingmo saw this, she walked into the shop. While the shop owner went to the backyard to call a carriage, she left a piece of silver, picked up two pieces of cloth and ran out.
After running for who knows how long and making sure that he would not be caught up by the store, Lin Jingmo spared a few blocks and went to a clothing store to change into men's clothes.
Then she walked towards the gate of Prince Zhao's Mansion.
When she arrived at Prince Zhao's Mansion, the guard at the door stopped her and asked: "Who is it? How dare you break into the Prince's Mansion without permission?"
Lin Jingmo didn't know if the shop owner had come to deliver cloth before her, so she explained with some guilt: "I'm here to deliver cloth to the princess. The villain's shop is the second one on the left hand side of West Street."
The guard looked at the cloth in her hand and said, "Give me the cloth and you can go."
Lin Jingmo shook his head and said: "The princess asked me to find the housekeeper to settle the account!"
"Hmph!" the guard said angrily: "With such a huge palace, Prince Zhao, is it possible that he still owes you a debt?"
Lin Jingmo lowered his head and said: "The shop is run on a small budget, so I asked the official to do it for me. It was really the princess who asked me to come to the housekeeper to collect money and settle the bill."
The guard heard that it was the princess who meant it, so he nodded to the other guard, who opened the side door and let Lin Jingmo walk in.
Lin Jingmo held the piece of cloth and followed the guard forward. The guard said, "Why did the princess buy two pieces of cloth when she went out this time? It seems that you are not the one delivering the goods on weekdays?"
Lin Jingmo said: "I am the son of the store owner and just came from my hometown. There are not many new products in the store this time, so the princess only picked these two."
The two were walking, Lin Jingmo looked at the unfamiliar environment around him, and was thinking about how to get rid of the guard and get inside.
But I saw a graceful woman walking out of the garden.
When the guard saw this, he quickly lowered his head. Lin Jingmo realized it later but just stared at her blankly. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: What a peerless beauty!
I saw her peach cheeks and almond-shaped eyes, her skin was like snow, and her waist was looming in a soft veil.
"Presumptuous!" The woman raised her hand and slapped Lin Jingmo. Lin Jingmo was slapped innocently, and she dropped the cloth directly to the ground before she could react.
The woman became angry, her face turned red and she cursed: "Who are you! Where did you come from, a rough man! How dare you look directly at my wife!"
Madam? What madam? The lady in this palace?
When Lin Jingmo heard this, he quickly lowered his head.
The guard hurriedly said: "He is here to deliver cloth to the princess. It is his first time entering the palace and he doesn't understand the rules. Madam, just teach him a lesson."
"A gift of fabric?" The woman looked down at the cloth at her feet and continued: "Is it the fabric prepared for my son's full moon party?"
Lin Jingmo then crawled to the ground to pick up the fabric.
Suddenly the woman stepped on Lin Jingmo's hand that was holding the cloth. Lin Jingmo subconsciously took advantage of her release and stretched out her hand. Unexpectedly, the woman kicked the cloth several times with her feet, and then trampled the cloth wantonly.
Standing at his feet, he said: "How can you feel comfortable with this shabby material? How dare she do this to my son now!"
Lin Jingmo looked up at the woman in surprise, and saw that she was about to lower her head to lean on him. Lin Jingmo said hurriedly: "The princess also thinks these fabrics are not good, and she has to wait for the fabrics sent by Zhongshu Ling...
..."
Could the young prince be her son? Lin Jingmo didn't know what to call him, but the woman spoke up and said: "Humph! Of course my son is the best! Does she think she can take possession of my child just because she is a princess?
