Black bamboo clothes shop.

Wu Tian knew what happened after listening to Li Qingyan's words, but he couldn't understand why Li Qingyan was still able to take the bait in such a clumsy scam, and he actually acted like he was helping the prince a lot.
"Don't you think there's something wrong?" Wu Tian couldn't hold back, and asked tentatively.
"Huh? What's wrong?"
Seeing the puzzled look on the person's face, who really didn't seem to know, Wu Tian sighed, and reminded: "Don't you think something is wrong from the fact that the concubine said she would come to our shop but didn't come? "
Hearing that Wu Tian's tone didn't seem to be joking, Li Qingyan thought about it seriously, his expression gradually became serious, but he couldn't figure it out: "But didn't the princess send someone over to tell me about her breaking the appointment?"
"It's because they sent people here and they told the reason, that's the biggest problem." Wu Tian said.
Seeing that Li Qingyan was still puzzled, Wu Tian reminded: "Do you still remember who the maid who came to pass the message was, and what was the reason why the princess couldn't come?"
"That maid is the princess's personal maid. The reason why the princess can't come is because she sprained her ankle." Speaking of this, Li Qingyan was immediately blessed.
Wu Tian saw that he had figured it out, and added: "When I left the palace, I asked people, the princess never planned to go outside the city, and she never sprained her horn at all."
Hearing this, Li Qingyan was sure that the concubine was playing with him, saying that she would go out of the city for fear of running out of time, so she had to come early in the morning to look at the clothes, and asked him to wait from early in the morning, and later when they became impatient, Another maid was sent over to give them reassurance, saying that they had sprained their ankles and told them to wait a while, and asked them to wait from morning until noon.
But Li Qingyan still didn't understand: "If the concubine wants to tease me, there must be a reason, right? Why? I haven't offended her in any way, have I?"
Faced with these problems, Wu Tian didn't have a clue for a while. Like Li Qingyan, he met the princess by chance. It was the first time they met. Why did the princess treat him like this?
Wu Tian saw a conjecture flashed in the mind of the person who was thinking at the side, and after thinking for a while, he asked, "5000 taels of gold, what did you buy?"
Li Qingyan was thinking about how he offended the princess, and without thinking about it, he said, "A bunch of jewelry made by street vendors."
"Jewelry..." Wu Tian muttered to himself, "It's all jewelry, isn't it a coincidence?"
"What a coincidence?" Li Qingyan heard this sentence when he came back to his senses, and knew that Wu Tian must have guessed.
"When we first met the princess two days ago, you gave her two sets of jewelry, didn't you?" Wu Tianyi pointed out.
Li Qingyan immediately vetoed it: "How is it possible, based on Wangfei's previous experience, it is impossible for her to see it."
Wu Tian has a different opinion: "There are no absolutes in the world, if she sees it, then there will be an explanation for the broken appointment that day and today's events."
Seeing that Li Qingyan still didn't quite believe it, Wu Tian continued: "If the concubine wants to sell the dowry, she can go directly to the underground dark village. In that case, her identity will be difficult to find out, but why should she stay alone? Excuse me, does the concubine think that a person like you who meets by chance is more reliable than those who deal with secret dealers? Will you hide your identity for her?
Then there are those jewelry, the two sets you sent out before, the craftsmanship is enough to be fake, but after seeing the princess, she still holds the two boxes of jewelry and can tell at a glance that they are crude and poorly made jewelry, saying that they are rare in Languo, Is it reasonable to sell it to you at a price of 5000 taels of gold?
Even if the princess didn't see it, couldn't other people in the palace see it too? "
After hearing these words, Li Qingyan is now basically sure that the princess knows that the two sets of jewelry he gave are fake.
He was at a loss for a while: "Well, what should I do? I really want to pay the 5000 taels? That's gold." Thinking about it hurts his heart.
It was also his own fault, he believed in the previous information, so he gave away those two sets of jewelry, and told Huo Chenxiao that those two sets of jewelry were fake, so the princess should not wear them on important occasions.
On a whim, he actually had to pay such a painful price...
Wu Tian knew his temperament, he had no hobbies at ordinary times, he just liked to count money, now he had to give away so much at once, wouldn't he feel distressed.
Looking at his look of lovelessness, he said with a smile: "You deserve it, who made you use your brains."
"I made these two sets of jewelry myself, and even an expert would have to study them for a few days to find out. Who knew that this princess is so powerful." Li Qingyan was annoyed.
Hearing this, Wu Tian also put away his smile, it seems that they all underestimated this princess...
At this moment, there was a knock on the door: "My lord, there is a girl outside who wants to see you."
"Just say I'm not here." Wu Tian didn't care to see any girls.
But the people outside did not leave, and said: "My lord, the girl outside said her name is Lizhi."
Hearing this, Li Qingyan and Wu Tian looked at each other, the maid of the princess?
"Let her in." Wu Tian agreed.
Not long after, Lizhi walked in, and was not surprised to see Li Qingyan, and blessed the body as usual: "Master Wu, Fangzhu Li."
"Girl, you don't need to be too polite. I don't know what the girl is doing here?" Wu Tian asked calmly, taking Lizhi's reaction into his eyes.
"It's not a big deal, but the princess wants to invite you and Fangzhu Li to have a cup of tea this afternoon, and I'll make an appointment at the Chunjing Building."
Mingming made an appointment with Li Qingyan to take the 5000 taels of gold in the afternoon, but now he is also invited, and the appointment is still outside, combined with the look of the maid just now...
"I don't know why the concubine invited you, why?" Wu Tian asked tentatively.
Li Zhi smiled sweetly: "It's nothing else, the princess said it was to thank you two for your dedication to our son, and thinking that you don't lack gold and silver on weekdays, I wanted to invite you two to have a cup of tea and express your affection."
"The concubine specially invited me. I am very honored and will definitely be there." Wu Tian said politely.
Li Qingyan nodded in agreement, and seeing that both of them agreed, and Li Zhi didn't stay for long, he said his goodbyes and left.
Seeing people leave, Wu Tian sighed and patted Li Qingyan on the shoulder: "It seems that your 5000 taels of gold have been saved."
But their identities may not be preserved.
If I had known at that time, I should have stopped him from sending any fake jewelry, but now, he has achieved this with only two pieces of jewelry.
Thinking of Wang Hao's invitation, I'm afraid it's not easy to deal with...
Xinlan Courtyard.
Lan Qing told her good baby: "Zai Zai, mother has something to do in the afternoon, so I can't take you out together, but mother will bring you delicious food, okay?"
"Okay, Erchen is waiting for mother to come back at home." Huo Beichen said obediently, he knew that his mother must be going to do important things, so he will be obedient.
Hearing this, Lan Qing was very upset, and once again complained about the emperor in her heart, she didn't want such a well-behaved child, she was really out of her mind.
