Going out to play Qiuyue looked at Huayan, thinking that it was only the second day after she came to the mansion, so it's not good to just go out to play like this, not to mention that the storm that the young lady just frightened everyone, so you have to take it easy.
Huayan ignored Qiuyue and left the room.
Qiuyue hurriedly chased her out, approached her, and whispered, "Miss, you forgot that we spent all the money we carried on the way to Beijing. Even if we go out to play, we have no money."
Huayan stretched out her hand and patted her face gently, her voice was as warm as a spring breeze, and she said with a smile, "As long as you are with me and my hands are there, you won't have money to spend."
Qiuyue understood, her face turned pale immediately, she took a step back, and shook her head violently, "Miss, this is the capital city, and your current status is the princess, if someone finds out..."
Huayan snorted and interrupted her, "If you don't want to go, I'll go by myself."
Qiuyue stood where she was, her face turned pale and white for a moment, seeing that Huayan had already left the courtyard gate, she stomped her feet and chased after her angrily.
Mother Fang didn't know where the two of them were going, thinking of the housekeeper's instructions, she didn't dare to make the slightest mistake, and quickly chased them out with more than a dozen maidservants.
After leaving the Phoenix West Garden, Hua Yan walked towards the north gate along the road Steward Fu brought her yesterday.
Not far away, Mother Fang chased after her with someone, and asked anxiously, "Crown Princess, are you going to visit the garden? This servant brought someone to serve you."
Huayan turned her head and glanced at Nanny Fang, and said with a smile, "I'm going to walk around the street, as long as I have Qiuyue to serve me. You don't have to follow her, I'm used to her."
Qiuyue's complexion was not good, and she didn't say a word.
Mother Fang quickly said, "The steward ordered that this servant must take good care of the Crown Princess. If you want to go out for a stroll, this servant will order someone to prepare a car."
Huayan glanced at her with a smile, "If I put on the ostentation of the Eastern Palace, I won't be able to enjoy myself. Steward Fu's order is an order, but I mean I don't like many people." After saying that, she waved her hand, "You guys Go back, let the cooks in the kitchen cook me different special dishes at night, and I will try it too." After finishing speaking, he walked forward.
Mother Fang looked at Hua Yan, although she had just said a few words, but her tone and expression were categorically undeniable. Can the orders of the big housekeeper be higher than those of the princess
She stood for a long while, but she didn't dare to force her to follow, so she hurriedly told the person beside her, "Quickly go and report to the Chief Manager, and tell the Crown Princess to go shopping in the street, and she won't let me wait, and only brought her maid Qiuyue with her."
A maidservant responded and hurriedly went to report to Steward Fu.
Steward Fu left the Phoenix West Garden, and when the wind blew, he felt cool from the tips of his hair to his heels. He wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, feeling that he had lived a long time, and had served the prince for many years. This was the first time he felt that he had been tortured by frying, cooking, cold, hot, washing, whipping and burning. up.
He sighed deeply, thinking about how to describe his dire situation today faithfully and undistortedly when His Highness the Crown Prince returned to the mansion in the evening.
He returned to his residence and changed into clean clothes. He just felt warmer when he heard the little maid who was on duty in Phoenix Xiyuan rushing to tell the Crown Princess that she only brought her maid out of the mansion to go shopping on the street. Things.
Hearing Huayan's words, "Housekeeper Fu's order is an order, but I mean I don't like many people." His soothing heart tightened, and after a long while, he waved his hand feebly, "I see, tell Nanny Fang According to the order of the Crown Princess, let the cook prepare today's dinner. As for the Crown Princess, she traveled thousands of miles from Lin'an to the capital by herself, and she just went to the streets of the capital, so it shouldn't matter."
After receiving the order, the little maid hurriedly went to answer Nanny Fang.
Steward Fu pondered for a moment, but still felt that he should send someone to inform His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
So, the servant of the Prince's Mansion hurried out of the East Palace, and after inquiring about the Prince's whereabouts, he went to Zongzheng Temple.
Yun Chi pondered for several days about the turmoil in the small country of the Southwest Fanbang. Today, after the morning court, he went to the Zongzheng Temple in person and discussed with the royal family to choose one of them as an envoy to the Southwest Fanbang.
While deliberating and yet to come to a conclusion, the little eunuch Xiao Zhongzi, who was waiting close to him, whispered a few words in his ear, Yun Chi twitched his brows slightly, and nodded his head to show that he understood.
Xiao Zhongzi saw that His Highness the Crown Prince had nothing to say, so he went out to give
The boy who reported the letter from the Eastern Palace replied, "Your Highness said you understand."
The boy nodded and hurried back to the East Palace.
With no one to stop her, Huayan left the north gate of the East Palace smoothly. As soon as she stepped out of the door, she felt that there were no pavilions, towers, pavilions, tall houses, Huayu, and cages, and she felt refreshed.
She walked leisurely along the street at the north gate, and after a short while, she came to Ronghua Street, the most prosperous and bustling street in Southern Chu capital.
There are many major shops on the street, and the clothes in the crowd are gorgeous, and there is a lot of traffic, coming and going.
There are princes and grandchildren who look elegant and dignified at first sight, there are wealthy businessmen with bright clothes, there are women in boudoirs who are covered with veils and guarded by a large number of servants, and ordinary people with cloth clothes and hairpin skirts are beaming and appear to be rich.
Although Huayan's simple attire is elegant and extravagant, it is not too conspicuous among such affluent, happy and prosperous crowd. The only thing that stands out is her appearance.
Southern Chu's folk customs are open, and women's boudoir training is not extremely strict, but the strict rules of the noble family still do not allow women to go out alone. Even if they go out, they are guarded by a large number of servants, and they all wear veils.
Although the rules of the Hua family are strict, Huayan has a different temperament since she was a child, and she never abides by them.
She walked slowly along the street in the crowd, admiring the hustle and bustle of the capital.
She had to admit that among the hundreds of prefectures and counties in Southern Chu, the capital city was the most prosperous.
Qiuyue followed Huayan, her face kept slumped, and when she saw people passing by cast amazed glances at Huayan, she frowned and stared back, someone walked away resentfully, not daring to look any more, and stared After several times, her eyes hurt from staring, she whispered, "Miss, you don't really want it"
Before she could finish her sentence, Hua Yan had already stopped in front of a door, and said with a smile, "Exactly, I always want to earn some money, the feeling of having no money is really not very pleasant as Zheng Erhu said."
Qiuyue choked back after speaking half of the sentence, her face became more and more ugly, and she whispered, "The East Palace can always support Miss."
Huayan sneered, and reached out to touch her eyebrows, "I'm afraid I can't afford it. I have a big appetite. He is an Eastern Palace with only a lot of property. The things he does are not filling his own pockets, but filling the treasury for the country and the people. If If you don’t use the national treasury to give me flowers, where can I afford it?”
Qiuyue suddenly fell silent.
Huayan walked in.
Qiuyue took a look at the words "Shunfang Casino" written on the door plaque, and felt her scalp tingling and her whole body growing thorns.
Shunfang Casino is the largest casino in the capital city of Nanchu, fully occupying the size of three restaurants in the best and most expensive area of Ronghua Street, the most prosperous capital city of Nanchu.
Here, the door is not closed for twelve hours, and gambling games are set up day and night, and everything in the world can be gambled here. Gold, silver, money and silk, rare antiques, brocade cloth, human beings and livestock, etc., are inexhaustible.
There are all kinds of gambling games that can be played in the world.
Although it is already lunchtime, there is no rest here. The dealers start the game one by one, and the gamblers place their bets again and again, with loud applause and mourning.
No matter your status, no matter how high or low, no matter whether you are a prince or a grandson, or a class of three religions, it's the same here.
When Huayan stepped into the threshold, a young servant came forward to meet her, quickly looked Huayan up and down with his eyes that looked at countless people, and asked with a smile, "Is the girl here to find someone or to play a game?"
Huayan smiled at her, and said with a smile in her harmless eyes, "I just came to the capital yesterday from another place, and I heard that the Shunfang Casino is famous all over the world, so I come here to gamble a few times, so I can learn a lot from it."
The boy was dazzled by her smile, and it took him a while to come back to his senses. He secretly praised the girl for her good looks, and quickly asked with a smile, "Young lady, do you want to bet on Da Zhuang or Xiao Zhuang?"
Huayan pulled behind her casually, then pulled Qiuyue who reluctantly followed her in, and said with a smile, "Second brother, look, how much money is my maidservant worth? I was so happy when I went out today, I only envy the prosperity of the capital, and forgot to bring money, so I gambled with her."
Qiuyue's face was like a Chinese cabbage in water.
