246 Goodbye Qingcheng
Seeing Jiuyin's suspicious look, the steward's face darkened slightly, and his tone became colder:
"Girl, our Huafan House attaches great importance to integrity. We will definitely do what we promised to the girl. If the information given to the girl later is incomplete, the girl can also ask for the money back. Although Huafan House has nothing in Dongchu yet,
Although we are famous, we will never cheat our customers half-heartedly.”
"That's not what I meant." Seeing him like this, Jiuyin hurriedly explained.
She wanted to take out some money, but then she remembered that she didn't have any silver with her. After thinking about it, she took off a jade hairpin from her head and put it on the table. She looked at the steward and said with a smile:
"I didn't bring any silver. I wonder how much this hairpin is worth to the steward?"
The steward picked up the jade hairpin, looked at it carefully for a moment, then put the hairpin back to its original place, looked at her and said seriously: "Girl, this hairpin is worth at least eight hundred taels."
"Okay, then tell me Wuyou's information first, and I will consider whether to continue doing business with you later. Since the hairpins are all here, you don't have to worry about me owing you money."
The steward smiled lightly, turned and walked to the shelf behind him, took out a file from a secret compartment, returned to the desk, and opened the file in front of Jiuyin.
Jiuyin only saw the word "worry-free" written on the outside of the file. She looked at the introduction inside with some doubts.
Wuyou, nineteen years old, a native of Dongchu Gongyue, his parents died when he was young, and he and his eldest brother Wuji depended on each other. When he was six years old, he and his eldest brother begged in the imperial city, and were taken in by Prince Jin. Since then, he has been with Prince Jin.
…
After that, there are some things that introduce Wuyou's personal preferences and work abilities, as well as where she is now and what she is doing for Prince Jin...
Looking at the file, Jiuyin was so shocked that she was completely speechless. She just picked up a random person for them to investigate, just to test their ability. Unexpectedly, they already had Wuyou's information.
She looked at the steward, shocked and speechless: "Then...then I...I...I want Jiuyin's information...is that okay?"
"Three hundred taels of silver." The steward made the price and then explained:
"But I have to make it clear to the girl first. The girl can only ask for some background information about Jiuyin. As for some details, we have to consider the price according to the circumstances. We don't know everything. We are not gods. What exactly does the girl want?
If you know something, you have to tell us first, and we need to take the time to investigate."
Jiuyin naturally knew that just like Wuyou's information just now, it only listed Wuyou's past and current situation. As for what specific things she had done, there was no such information.
She nodded and said, "Then give me Jiuyin's information. By the way, I'm talking about the Jiuyin who just married Prince Jin."
She was afraid that someone with the same name would make a mistake.
The steward nodded, looked down at the file belonging to Wuyou on the table, and asked Wen Yan: "Miss, do you want us to copy the contents of this file for you?"
"No need." Forget about unimportant things.
The steward took out a file from another secret room that seemed more secret, placed it in front of Jiuyin, then rolled up the file that belonged to Wuyou before and put it back into the secret room.
While he was busy, Jiuyin quickly opened the file and looked at the information above. The more he looked at it, the more frightened he became, and the more he looked at it, the more horrified he felt.
They were even able to dig out things like her becoming a hostage on Langya Island and being brought back by Prince Yi, and her becoming a recognized lover with the God of War in Xi Chu.
Although these are all things that everyone knows, how can they record everyone's information in such detail in such a huge sea of people?
How long have they been open for painting fan buildings? How can they achieve this?
Seeing her lost look and her face gradually turning pale, the steward couldn't help but asked with concern: "Is the girl okay? Are you feeling unwell?"
"No." Jiuyin shook his head quickly, looked at him, and hesitated for a long time before saying: "Why do you have the information about these people? Do you mean that you have recorded everyone's information so completely?"
How much manpower and material resources did it take to get so much information? How did they do it?
The steward smiled lightly and then explained to her: "It's not what the girl thought. We don't have much information here. They are all people with some status in the imperial city, so the information will be collected. And
It's all irrelevant information. If the girl wants to know something, she has to investigate it carefully again."
After hearing his explanation, Jiuyin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It turns out that they don't investigate everyone, but they are selective. Like Wuyou, although she is just a girl from an ordinary family, she works for Prince Jin and does big business. Such a person is naturally
He is a big shot, so it is not surprising that he would be included.
Like herself, after all, she is now Princess Jin. With such a noble status, it is normal for them to record her background information. She is always relieved.
"How long have your people been here?" she asked.
The steward hesitated for a moment and then said: "About two months."
Jiuyin didn't ask any more questions. It was obvious that he was very reluctant when answering her. Probably people like them who deal in information always habitually collect money before revealing the information the other party wants to their customers.
She held up her sleeves to wipe away the slight sweat on her forehead, looked at the steward and said seriously: "There is something I really hope you can help me with to verify it."
"Girl, it doesn't matter if you say so."
…
After about half a stick of incense, Jiuyin left the wing and returned to the front hall of Huafan Building. However, when he went out, the bracelet on his hand was gone, and the jade hairpin on his head was also missing, along with the one on his neck.
The jewelry necklace was also missing.
People who didn't know better thought she had been robbed and had all the valuable things taken away from her. In fact, those things were just used by her as a deposit and were temporarily left in the Painting Fan Building.
The steward personally sent her to the lobby and was about to send her out when Jiuyin saw a tall, plain white figure in the front hall of their painted fan building.
Seeing him, Jiuyin couldn't help but stop her steps, her little hands clenched unconsciously, and her breathing became chaotic for a moment.
When she saw Zhan Qingcheng, Zhan Qingcheng had also noticed her presence.
Seeing her appearing alone here, his face darkened, obvious anger flashed in his eyes, and he walked towards her.
Jiuyin couldn't help but take half a step back.
Seeing this, the steward standing next to her took the initiative to show concern: "Girl, do you need any help?"
After all, this girl is also their guest. If she is harmed in their painting fan building, it will be the fault of their painting fan building.
Although they knew that the man walking towards them was extremely powerful in martial arts and that even he himself could not match it, the brothers in the painting fan building were not vegetarians. It was their responsibility to protect their guests, at least when the girl stepped out of the painting fan.
In front of the building gate, he couldn't let anyone get into trouble here.
Jiuyin shook her head lightly and smiled at him: "It doesn't matter, he is my friend. I can just go out with him. You can go about your business."
Hearing that they were friends, the manager breathed a sigh of relief, said goodbye to her, and went about his own business.
In the blink of an eye, Zhan Qingcheng had arrived in front of Jiuyin, looking down at her pale face, he said solemnly: "Why are you here alone? Where is Feng Mujin?"
"He went about his own business." Seeing that the people around him were looking at them frequently, Jiuyin said with a smile: "This is other people's place, let's talk about it after we go out."
Seeing her thin lips opening and closing, Zhan Qingcheng's heart trembled slightly, but he didn't say anything, but he just stretched out his hands to hug her out of habit.
Jiuyin was startled, immediately staggered her steps to avoid his long arm, and walked quickly towards the door.
Seeing his empty hand falling in the air, Zhan Qingcheng's eyes dimmed slightly, but he finally stepped to follow.
After exiting the gate of Hua Fan Building, I looked up and saw Ru Hua standing beside the carriage looking at them.
Seeing her coming out with Zhan Qingcheng, Ruhua was startled, and then walked quickly towards them.
Jiuyin wanted to go up to him, but Zhan Qingcheng beside him said in a deep voice: "Jiuyin, I have something to say to you."
"I have to go back." Jiuyin raised his head and smiled awkwardly at him. He was about to take steps to meet Ruhua, but his waist tightened and she was already in his arms.
She was startled, put her hands in front of him and exclaimed: "Qingcheng, what are you doing? Let me go!"
Once, on the night he raped her, she made it clear to him that she didn't want to see him again from now on.
Now, many days have passed since the incident, and the original pain and embarrassment has indeed faded away, but this does not mean that she can still be as close to him as before.
Now that she is Princess Jin, how can she still cuddle with him on the street? If she is seen by someone she knows, there will inevitably be trouble again.
The turmoil in Prince Jin's palace and Prince Yi's brain has not yet completely passed. Now, the last thing she wants to get involved in is this kind of scandal.
"I have something to tell you." Zhan Qingcheng still stared at hers stubbornly, his words were calm, and no anxiety could be heard.
Jiuyin was so anxious that she was sweating profusely. When she saw Ruhua running toward them in a hurry, she took a deep breath and suddenly looked sideways at Ruhua who had already arrived in front of them, and said anxiously: "Go back to the car and wait.
I, I have something to talk to him about and will be back soon."
After that, he raised his head and glanced at Zhan Qingcheng, and said helplessly: "Find a place where no one is around."
"Okay." As soon as he finished speaking, the two figures disappeared out of thin air on the street, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Ruhua was really helpless. He knew that the girl did not want too many people to see her and Zhan Qingcheng together, and she was sure that Zhan Qingcheng would not hurt their girl, so she strolled back to the carriage, still waiting patiently, just hoping
They quickly finished their conversation so that their girl could be released as soon as possible.
Chapter completed!
