Chapter 190 The plan is ready, let’s keep the appointment!

The next day, Shen Shenshen arrived at Heyinlou early as usual. Today was the second day of opening, and the guests who came were also distinguished guests from the capital.

After lunch yesterday, Mu Yejun said goodbye to her and left first. She and Zhu Yanxiao returned to Heyinlou to see off the distinguished guests.

Shen Shenshen immediately found Manager He and asked him nervously.

"Shopkeeper He, how much silver did you sell today?"

Shopkeeper He's eyes lit up, and he almost burst into tears. He said to Shen Shen excitedly, "Second Miss Shen is amazing. Today, we sold a total of 18 gold hairpins, 20 gold hairpins, and 15 hairpin combs... The total cash collected was 328 taels."

"More than three hundred taels today?" Even Shen Shen knew that the situation today would not be bad, but he did not expect that there would be so much.

"I admire Miss Shen very much." Shopkeeper He smiled happily.

Zhu Yanxiao was also a little surprised. Since the opening of Heyinlou, there has never been a single day with a revenue of more than 300 taels of silver.

"Today's opening is a good start. Due to today's good reputation, the revenue in the next three days will not be bad. However, the key is to maintain 80 to 100 taels of silver in sales every day. Shopkeeper He, please gather everyone together. There are some issues that need to be emphasized again for today's opening."

"Yes, I'll go right away." After saying that, he went to look for someone with brisk steps.

Seeing that she had finished her explanation, Zhu Yanxiao said, "God, I still have to go to the Censorate now."

"Well. Take care, Ziyuan." Shen Shenshen smiled and waved to him.

Zhu Yanxiao looked at the woman who was smiling brightly, glowing all over, and not relying on him at all, and he felt mixed emotions. She was so outstanding that she attracted all his attention. But because she was so outstanding, she would be fine even without him.

He opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing and turned to go to the Censorate.

The next day was still a nice day with a bit of coolness, and the hibiscus flowers on Dongxiang Street were in full bloom. Because the virtuous concubines in the palace came to the opening ceremony of Heyinlou yesterday, His Majesty also personally rewarded Miss Shen Er with a pair of jade bracelets. What does this mean? It means that His Majesty still favors Prince Zhong's Mansion and even favors the future Crown Prince's Consort.

Therefore, the ladies who were invited could not sit still. The ladies who did not come yesterday regretted it. The ladies who came were all smiling and happy. The virtuous concubine would definitely tell His Majesty which ladies were loyal to the court.

Therefore, all the ladies above the third rank came today, except those who were bedridden. Including the first rank ladies and daughters of the two mansions who were not here yesterday, they also came today.

In Shen Shen's eyes, these ladies were all walking silver ingots. He naturally greeted them with a smile, and the "fox tail" behind him was wagging.

The opening ceremony was still held, but the segment of Master Xie reciting poems was gone. Master, you are a first-rank official, so it is impossible for you to recite poems for the second- and third-rank ladies.

Of course, the prince of his family must be present. Afterwards, Shen Shen showed Zhu Yanxiao the small words in the post's "Warm Tips". Zhu Yanxiao's face naturally became very ugly, but after Shen Shen's soft jade and warm fragrance, what principles? They don't exist.

Those who are favored are always confident.

After a busy day, the results of the second day were summarized and were almost the same as the first day, 304 taels of silver.

Hahahaha. Shen Shenshen felt that he was simply a genius.

Zhu Yanxiao still went to the Inspectorate after noon. Shen Shenshen returned to the Marquis' Mansion after the opening ceremony of Heyinlou, waiting for Ziyuan to take her out of the mansion later. If she walked out of the Marquis' Mansion at midnight, she would be skinned alive by her mother.

In the bright candlelight of the blue and white courtyard, Shen Shenshen changed into a dress with narrow sleeves and a narrow skirt that allowed her to move swiftly. She had never done anything like "going to a mountain of tigers despite knowing there are tigers there", so she was inevitably excited and nervous.

Just as the hour of Xu arrived, a man in green clothes came to the boudoir. Shen Shen saw him and said excitedly, "Ziyuan, shall we set off now?"

"God, God..." Zhu Yanxiao hesitated and stood beside her.

"Oh, don't worry." Patting Zhu Yanxiao's shoulder, "Your god is very smart."

Zhu Yanxiao curled his lips slightly without saying anything more. He put his arm around her waist and whispered in her ear, "Let's go. Remember, don't be stubborn."

"Yeah." Shen Shen hooked his hands tightly around Zhu Yanxiao's neck.

After several figures jumped out from the Qinghua Garden, a few jumped out of the wall of the backyard of the Marquis' Mansion. There was an ordinary carriage parked there. There was nothing conspicuous about it. It was so ordinary that no one would remember it.

Zhu Yanxiao winked at Xingyun, and then he and Shen Shenshen got into the small carriage. Xingyun then uttered a few strange syllables, and the Feidao Guards hiding in the dark looked at each other in bewilderment. The leader meant... not to let them follow? !

As Xingyun waved the whip in his hand, the carriage began to sway towards its destination.

Since what she was going to do tonight was both critical and full of risks, Shen Shenshen had no intention of flirting or chatting with her "boyfriend" at the moment. She was wrapped in nervousness. Zhu Yanxiao seemed to have sensed her inner uneasiness and nervousness, and remained silent as well. He just kept tapping the chair in the car with his index finger, and heard the rhythmic "clacking" sound of horse hooves and the "crunching" sound of wheels rolling over the road.

There was a suffocating and dull atmosphere in the carriage, as if even the air had solidified.

After about an incense stick of time, the carriage slowly stopped. Zhu Yanxiao got off the carriage, and then helped Shen Shenshen get off. It was all dark in front of him, without any lights. In front of him was an ordinary two-story teahouse, which could not be seen in the dark. There seemed to be neatly arranged wood piled in the yard. There were two red lanterns hanging at the door, swaying slightly in the late autumn night wind.

Through the door of the teahouse, you can vaguely see the flickering candlelight inside the building.

"Be careful." Zhu Yanxiao whispered.

Shen Shen nodded, gave him a reassuring smile, and walked towards the teahouse alone.

As I walked through the door, I was greeted by an old-fashioned atmosphere. The interior of the teahouse was simple and elegant, without too many complicated and luxurious decorations. The antique tables and chairs were neatly arranged, but the tables were covered with a thick layer of dust. A few candles were lit, and the room was a little dim. There were a few dusty landscape paintings hanging on the walls, adding a bit of elegance. The teahouse was empty, and it seemed particularly quiet and strange.

Shen Shen looked around and didn't see the woman in white from yesterday. After thinking for a while, she bravely went up to the second floor and vaguely saw a faint candlelight coming out of a pavilion at the end of the corridor. So she quickened her pace and walked to the door of the pavilion where the faint candlelight came out. She swallowed her nervousness and reached out to push open the door of the pavilion.

As expected, there was a man in a black robe sitting against the wall in the room, wearing a black mask. On the tea table in front of him were two faint candles, a teapot and two teacups. The candlelight flickered, making the black mask flicker.

"Miss Shen, please come in." The man in black spoke, a man's voice.

The voice was very deliberate. Shen Shenshen understood that the man in black robe had changed his voice. She could not see his appearance and expression under the mask, but she could clearly feel that the man in black was staring at her with a smile. It was like staring at the prey in his hand, playing with it first and then cooking it.

Shen Shen rolled her eyes, but did not enter the house. She stood at the door and smiled, "This... young master, do you know Shen Shen? The one who invited me here yesterday was a woman in white, so why did it become a young master tonight?"

Seeing that she was still standing there and did not enter the house, the man in black continued, "Yesterday, I..." Just as he was about to speak, he immediately changed his words, "I asked Rong'er to invite Miss Shen Er. Zhu Yanxiao and the guards are also guarding outside the house? Miss Shen Er, don't be nervous."

Shen Shenshen no longer hesitated and walked into the slightly dim pavilion with confidence. He simply sat down opposite the man in black. He looked around with curiosity without hiding his eyes.

What came into view was a simple square house. It was so big that it could not even be called a pavilion. It should have been a wing room for distinguished guests to drink tea. Apart from the bare walls on all four sides and a wooden door for entering and exiting, there was nothing else.

Shen Shen thought of Mu Yejun's words yesterday - "There may be no windows in the house, how can we save Shen Shen then?" They guessed correctly yesterday that there was only one door in and out of the house, and no windows, so there would be no danger, and Ziyuan entered the house through the window to save himself.

This black-robed man was meticulous and somewhat difficult to deal with. Thinking of this, Shen Shenshen's heart tightened and he secretly warned himself to be doubly cautious.
