The prince supports her, and the reborn princess kills people

Gu Yuxuan opened his palm, which contained a few pieces of silver.

The vendor's eyes lit up, rolled around, and he quickly started recommending the little gadgets on his stall.

"Young Master, you have brought so much silver, you can buy all these things, why don't you take them all?"

Gu Yuxuan shook his head and pointed at the straw grasshopper and said, "I only want this."

The vendor tried to persuade him again, but Gu Yuxuan remained unmoved.

Seeing this, the vendor felt helpless and handed the grasshopper to him.

"Five taels of silver."

Gu Yuxuan looked down at the silver and money in his hand, feeling a little confused.

"How much is five taels of silver?"

There was a gloom in the peddler's eyes, and he took five pieces of silver from the man's hand.

"These are five taels."

Gu Yuxuan nodded and left with the grasshopper.

Little did he know that Shen Qingyan had seen the entire scene.

This person is so bold that he actually harmed a young child openly.

So after Gu Yuxuan got on the carriage, Shen Qingyan found an excuse, got off the carriage at the street in front, and turned back to the straw weaving stall.

The peddler took one look at Shen Qingyan's clothes and immediately smiled.

"Madam, would you like to buy some straw toys for your child? I have everything here..."

Shen Qingyan interrupted him coldly.

"Really? Then are you going to sell your eyes?"

"Ah?" The vendor was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Madam, you are really a joker. I can't make eyeballs."

“But I think you’re a good storyteller.”

Shen Qingyan took a step forward, and looked directly into the vendor's eyes with her cold eyes, with a hint of chillness.

"Otherwise, why would you lie with your eyes open and say that twenty-five taels of silver is five taels?"

The vendor's face changed and he knew something was wrong but he remained stubborn.

"What are you talking about, madam? I don't understand you. If you don't want to buy, just go away and don't disturb me while I'm doing business."

Shen Qingyan sneered in her heart, playing rogue, huh? Then let's see who can outsmart whom.

So he raised his hand and turned the stall upside down.

The vendor was startled and shouted, "What are you doing?"

Shen Qingyan gave Zhiqing and Zhiyu a look.

Zhiyu was the first to understand and started shouting at the top of his voice.

"Everyone, come and see! This vendor is cheating people. He sells a grasshopper for twenty-five taels of silver!"

"We saw it with our own eyes. We caught him red-handed, but he still refused to admit it."

"You put up a sign that says you are fair to everyone, but you bully a child. You are so vicious!"

"Don't be fooled!"

The street market was bustling with activity, and when Zhiqing and Zhiyu shouted, many people immediately gathered around and pointed at the vendors.

The peddler suddenly panicked and tried to make excuses.

"You are talking nonsense. When did I ever cheat you? You didn't even buy anything!"

Zhiyu said loudly: "My young master just bought a straw grasshopper from you, and you bullied him because he didn't know money. Not only did you sell the five-cent grasshopper for five taels, but you also took away twenty-five taels of silver. Now the money is in your sleeve pocket, do you dare not admit it?"

The peddler blushed and wanted to argue, but then he heard Shen Qingyan's cold voice.

"Now that we have the evidence, if you don't admit it, I can let the government determine the truth."

When the vendor heard about the government, how could he dare to quibble? He quickly said: "The money was given to me by the child himself. I make a living by selling these things. You can't do this. At worst, I will return the money to you."

As he said this, he took out the twenty-five taels of silver and returned it with great pain.

He could see that Shen Qingyan was either rich or noble. Since she was willing to let the government judge, he naturally couldn't afford to offend her.

After the money was returned, Shen Qingyan asked Qingmei to give him another five cents.

"Grasshopper's money is what it should be. If you cheat like this again, it won't be as simple as sending you to see the official."

The peddler's heart trembled, and he dared not say anything more.

"Yes, yes, I will respect your instructions."

Then Shen Qingyan returned to the carriage.

Afterwards, she taught Gu Yuxuan and Gu Huatang how to recognize money and the approximate price of each item.

Little did they know that from the moment Gu Yuxuan got off the car alone to buy straw grasshoppers, several pairs of eyes had been watching them in the dark.

It was not until the carriage disappeared that the owners of those pairs of eyes appeared.

"Brother, are they the only ones left? Do you want to reconsider? I always feel that we cannot deal with them. What if we fail..."

The leading man had a long scar on his face. Upon hearing this, he slapped the man on the head.

"What do you know? Did you see that carriage and their attire? They are obviously rich and noble. Even the boots worn by the coachman are beyond our reach. What are we waiting for if we don't kill such a big fat fish? Are we leaving it for others to kill?"

The man who was beaten dared not say a word and could only suffer in silence.

Another man asked quietly: "Brother, when do we start?"

The scarred man thought about it and lowered his voice.

"Looking at their direction, they seem to be heading to the outskirts of Beijing. There are fewer people there. Let's follow them and see, then find the right time to take action."

"Okay, I'll listen to everything, big brother."

After walking out of the bustling street market, Ji Feng reported to Gu Beihuai.

"Your Majesty, someone is following us. Do you need me to clean them up?"

Gu Beihuai narrowed his cold eyes and said calmly: "Some people don't know how to live or die, so let them do what they want. This is a good opportunity for me to see who dares to be so rampant under the emperor's feet."

"Yes."

When Shen Qingyan heard this, she immediately discussed it with Gu Beihuai in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, let me take care of a few of them when the time comes. I haven't practiced for a long time, and my martial arts skills are rusty."

Gu Beihuai rubbed her face, feeling doting yet helpless.

"Then you must be more careful and not fight too long."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I promise I won't fight any more!"

The carriage slowly drove into the cloud-sheltered sea forest on the outskirts of Beijing.

This is a very beautiful scenery in the suburbs of Beijing. As the name suggests, the trees here grow very lushly, almost covering the sky and blocking out the sun, and no clouds can be seen.

But the trees are evergreen, and the place is deep, quiet and peaceful. Walking among it feels like being in a green wonderland, which makes one's heart feel much more peaceful.

The carriage stopped.

There was a river not far away, and they planned to catch some fish and shrimp and grill them.

Gu Yuxuan's eyes were shining. Firstly, he was amazed by the beautiful scenery here, and secondly, he could go down to the river to catch fish and shrimps, which was something he had never experienced before.

Gu Huatang was very excited. As soon as he got off the carriage, he pulled Gu Yuxuan towards the river.

"Brother, fishing is fun, let's do it together!"

Shen Qingyan and Gu Beihuai also took off their shoes and socks and stepped into the river.

As summer approaches, the river water is not cold, but rather feels comfortable and cool.

The moment Shen Qingyan stepped into the river, she became playful and suddenly scooped up a handful of water and splashed it towards Gu Beihuai.
