Chapter 323: 323 First Entering the Royal Residence Chapter 323: 323 First Entering the Royal Residence The little girl had said before that she thought he was just joking, but to his surprise, there actually were such things!

As for their effectiveness, Ye Wenzheng never doubted Ye Jiu.

Keeping the items Ye Jiu had given him close to his body, Ye Wenzheng finally felt a sense of security.

“Does my little aunt still have some?” Ye Wenzheng asked worriedly.

“Don’t worry about me, would I dare to come out and trade with a group of strangers without being fully prepared?” Ye Jiu snorted coldly.

No sooner had Ye Jiu finished speaking than they heard someone knocking at the door.

Ye Wenzheng went to open the door and saw it was the inn’s waiter, which immediately relieved him.

“Gu… Guest, people from the War Prince Residence are looking for you,” the waiter’s voice stuttered, either from excitement or fear.

“People from the War Prince Residence?” Ye Jiu questioned.

She had indeed stood Sikong Mo up previously, but surely that wouldn’t warrant him harboring a grudge against her all this time, would it?

Moreover, touching her face, Ye Jiu knew she had changed a lot these past two months; Sikong Mo, hardly acquainted with her, should not be able to recognize her, right?

“May I ask, young man, did they say which distinguished person from the War Prince Residence is looking for me?” Ye Jiu, holding a piece of broken silver in her hand, walked over and handed it to the waiter.

“It is… people from the old Princess Consort’s entourage in the Royal Residence, who said they knew the guest had fine pelts, and invited you to bring your wares for their selection,” the waiter replied.

Both Ye Jiu and Ye Wenzheng breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as they hadn’t offended anyone, that was all right; and if someone took an interest in the merchandise, it meant another profitable deal.

Ye Jiu went downstairs to meet the people from the Royal Residence. The visitor was dressed like a minor official, but even before the Prime Minister’s gate was a seventh-rank official, so Ye Jiu still acted very politely and even signaled Ye Wenzheng to hand over a red envelope.

However, it might be because the other party looked down on a child, or that people from the Royal Residence, just like Si Bei, acted high and mighty, but Ye Jiu felt the visitor treated her perfunctorily.

Ye Jiu had Ye Wenzheng personally select a few fine furs from those unattended carriages before they followed the minor official to the Royal Residence.

As they left the inn, Dongzi arrived with someone else, chasing after them, “Young master, let us accompany you, we can help you carry things too.”

As he said so, Dongzi reached to take the items Ye Wenzheng was carrying, covered by a black cloth, his eyes revealing intense excitement.

The War Prince Residence, he never imagined he would have the chance to see it in his lifetime, and if he could use this occasion to curry favor with a prominent figure, then indeed he would be set for life.

Dongzi’s plan was good, but such a person was clearly beneath notice.

Before Ye Wenzheng could dodge, the minor official from the War Prince Residence scoffed, “Do you think our esteemed War Prince Residence is a marketplace, where any Tom, Dick, or Harry can enter?”

Ye Jiu laughed silently, then turned to Dongzi with a serious face and said, “Naturally, we cannot afford to offend the War Prince Residence; you all stay here with Master Lu, Wenzheng and I will be back shortly.”

Dongzi’s face turned a pale green, but facing individuals from the War Prince Residence, he didn’t dare so much as fart.

He had expected to witness the majesty of the War Prince Residence, yet Ye Jiu and Ye Wenzheng were instead directly taken to a back entrance.

By estimation, this wasn’t even a formal back gate but some side door whose location was unknown; yet it was still more spacious than his own front door, not to mention the other opulent features.

Upon entering the War Prince Residence, the minor official was sent away, and a maid took over to lead Ye Jiu and Ye Wenzheng.

The War Prince Residence was adorned with flowers and brocades, pavilions and towers, rockeries and flowing waters, a sight too beautiful to behold. The architecture was exquisite in every way, yet did not lose the commanding aura of a royal abode.

Ye Jiu was doing well, managing to keep her composure, but Ye Wenzheng was even more overwhelmed, his eyes dazzled by the splendor.
