Qing He frowned. "I'm not going anyway."

"You have to go even if you don't want to."

"If you tell me to go, I'll go. I won't go."

"I'm not talking to you right now, I'm ordering you. If you don't go, I'll tell your father to tell your mother that you're bullying me."

After what happened last time, Qing He really didn't dare to go out, but if Liu Yue told them that, he might not get scolded. In the end, he still accompanied her out, weighed her situation a bit, and agreed to go out with her.

Just like last time, she changed her appearance and taunted, "You don't even dare to reveal your true appearance anymore, you're a coward."

Qing He thought about it and felt that it made sense. After all, he couldn't just rely on disguising himself to get out of the house. To be honest, she was still too timid.

The two of them rode a carriage to the market, and Flowing Moon planned to buy some things.

Qing He acted as her maid. She and the coachman followed behind Liuyue and they walked on the street. Indeed, people were pointing and talking.

"Look at that person, isn't he the third lady of the Prime Minister's Estate, Su Qing He?"

"That's true, how could she even have the face to reveal herself?"

"She is indeed the daughter of the fireworks woman, so thick-skinned."

"That's right. If it was me, I would have ended it myself."

"I think she committed suicide before, but she didn't die. Oh right, who is that person in front of her?"

"I don't know him. Why does he look like her maid?"

"..."

Hearing the discussions of the crowd, Liuyue was very happy. She was happy when she heard that Su Qing He was not the same. She would occasionally run around and sing songs, feeling very happy.

Qing He had thought that it would be difficult and embarrassing to hear these words. However, the fact was that although she did care about it, it wasn't that strong of a feeling. Perhaps it was because she had built her heart and mind, Su Qing He's incident in the past.

Liuyue visited many shops. Jade Artifact Shop, Jewelry Shop, and Ancient Shop. Every time, she would rush in with excitement and leave with a sickness. Every time, she would let the shop owner take the town's treasure.

Seeing her like this, Qing He couldn't help but ask, "Young …" "Miss Yue, what are you doing?"

Liu Yue said unhappily, "Of course I'm picking out gifts. Every gift is satisfactory."

"It's not that expensive, it's good as long as you have that heart. Who are you giving that gift to? What does he usually like? What does he need? "

Flowing Moon propped his chin up with his hand. "That's true, but what he likes the most is beauties' wine. He has both of these things."

Qing He asked doubtfully, "Didn't you buy a gift for my second brother?"

"Of course not, I bought it for my sixth brother."

He finally understood what she meant. Beauty and fine wine were indeed what the Sixth Prince liked.

They arrived at another jade artifact store. Flowing Moon immediately saw a jade pendant with the picture of a white auspicious cloud. It was elegant and exquisite, the jade was of good quality, and it was transparent without any impurities.

"Boss, take out this piece of jade."

The plump boss smiled amiably, "This lady's eyesight is really good. This is He Tian Yu from the Western Regions. She is several times more precious than normal jade. This auspicious cloud pattern was personally carved by Master Zhou Tong. The entire Xuanyuan Empire only has one."

Just as Liuyue was about to take it, the boss reminded her, "Miss, be careful when you take it."

Liu Yue carefully picked up the jade pendant. It felt nice and warm to the touch, and the auspicious cloud matched the word 'Yun' in the Sixth Prince's name. The more Liu Yue read, the more she liked it.

She asked Qing He happily, "What do you think of this piece of jade?"

"It's exactly as the boss described."

Liu Yue immediately said to the boss, "I'll take this piece of jade."

The owner laughed. "This jade pendant's price is a little high. Are you sure you have made up your mind?"

Liuyue didn't even think about it before blurting out, "Of course I did. I can buy this shop all I want."

The shop owner's eyes immediately lit up, "That's just my bad luck. This jade pendant costs three hundred thousand taels of silver. How is this lady going to pay?"

She didn't bring any money. In the past, when she went shopping, it was always the servants who paid for her.

She looked towards Qing He, who waved his hands, "I only have a few hundred taels of silver on me."

Flowing Moon ran out to find the coachman, who respectfully replied, "The First Madam said that everything the Princess bought would be recorded in the General's Estate's accounts."

Liu Yue returned to the shop with a bitter face. She looked at the piece of jade and really liked it, but she wanted to buy it herself.

Seeing this, the boss maintained a friendly face, but he was not as enthusiastic as before. "Do you still want to buy more, Miss?"

When Liu Yue heard this, she angrily flashed her identity token. It was bright yellow, and was luxurious and exquisite. There were dragon and phoenix secret patterns carved on it, and the word "moon" was engraved on it.

When the boss saw this, his face revealed an expression of shock, and he kneeled down and said, "This humble one pays his respects to Princess Liuyue, this humble one has eyes but is unable to recognize Mt. Tai."

Liu Yue glared at him grumpily. "It's good that you know it. This princess has a magnanimous heart, so I won't argue with you. Leave the three hundred thousand taels of silver on my account. I'll naturally send it to you when I return to the palace."

The owner hurriedly said, "It's my honor to have the princess visit this store. This jade pendant will be gifted to the princess."

"Really?"

"Of course it's true. Princess, if you like anything about the store, you can take it away with you."

Flowing Moon smiled in satisfaction and said, "That's more like it. You know how to appreciate favors. The only thing I like is this jade pendant. Wrap it up for me."

The owner stood up. "Alright, this humble one will do it right away."

After wrapping them up, they walked outside. Qing He happened to see a Xiao in the corner. No, it was more accurate to say it was a Xiao Zhu. It was entirely green and looked carved from fine bamboo.

Qing He stopped and pointed at Xiao. "Boss, I want this Xiao."

The owner looked at Zhu Xiao and said to Qing He, "Are you sure you want to?" This Zhu Xiao has been used by others and I do not intend to sell it. However, Master Liu Yuan carries this Xiao around with him.

"How much is this Zhu Xiao?"

That boss waved his hand. "Forget it, I want Master Zhu Xiao to be able to fall in love with someone. Third Miss's music is also very famous. I'll give it to you as a good host."

Qing He was overjoyed. "Thank you for the gift, Boss. I will definitely treat it well."

Liu Yue was slightly dissatisfied. "Boss, how do you know her identity and not know me?"

The shop owner was stunned. He thought for a moment and said, "Princess' status is not something that ordinary people like us can see. The Third Miss has been away from home for a long time. This humble commoner has been lucky to see her for a long time."

Liuyue harrumphed and no longer spoke.
