The Times Spent in Pretense

Chapter 123: teahouse

Views:

The important matter of hiding the dragon robe can be solved safely, and the little sisters of Hua Liuli are very happy. In order to thank the little sisters for running around for themselves and begging for help, Hua Liuli invited them to the best restaurant in Beijing for dinner.

After eating, Jiamin glanced at the sky: "There are still a few hours before the curfew. How about we find a place to listen to a few songs? It's boring to go back so early."

"Jiamin is right, I heard that there are several musicians who have come to Jialefang. They are very beautiful and eye-catching." Yao Wenyin said, "I haven't been to the music shop for a long time recently because of the Hundred State Banquet."

"It's still not good." Hua Liuli laughed dryly. If the Crown Prince knew that she had gone to Lefang, he would definitely look at her aggrieved. How long would it take her to coax her

"Let's go, I'll treat you." Jiamin took Hua Liuli's arm: "You are also a county owner with a food town, and you usually don't see you saving money. Why are you stingy now?"

"Don't, don't, don't." Hua Liuli hurriedly said, "Jiamin, I'm not suitable to go."

"Why?" Jiamin was puzzled. A few months ago, wasn't she still robbing them of a pianist? Now that you don't even go to the music hall, is there something unspeakable

"I can't bear to be saddened by the prince." Hua Liuli sighed: "The prince treats me with deep love and righteousness. If I go to such a place, he will secretly feel sad in his heart."

Jiamin's expression became indescribable, because she couldn't imagine what it would be like for the prince to be secretly sad.

"I've wronged you." She reached out and patted Hua Liuli's shoulder. It's really embarrassing to be a good girl.

As for the prince's temper, ordinary people really can't do anything about him, and Hua Liuli can make him move his true feelings, which is also a skill.

that is…

Jiamin glanced at Hua Liuli worriedly. Does the prince know the true face of Hua Liuli

When they are young, they may be attracted to each other because of their looks, but just relying on their looks cannot make them go on for a long time.

The prince's status is honorable, if there is anything in the future... the one who suffers will be Hua Liuli. With the loyalty of the Hua family to the royal family, even if the prince loses Hua Liuli in the future, Hua Liuli will never do anything to harm the prince for the safety of the world.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that Hua Liuli was at a loss for this marriage.

"It's just listening to the music, not to take care of the face, what does it matter." Jiamin tried to let Hua Liuli enjoy the taste of freedom before getting married.

"No." Hua Liuli smiled and shook her head: "I can't bear to make him sad."

Jiamin looked at the seriousness in Hua Liuli's eyes, was silent for a moment, then shook her head and sighed: "Forget it, I won't advise you."

If the prince is sorry to Hua Liuli in the future, she will definitely scold him behind his back.

"Forget it, let's go to the teahouse to listen to the book." Jiamin raised her eyebrows: "His Majesty's Adventures, I only heard half of it."

"Okay." Hua Liuli smiled: "What kind of tea and dessert do you want, just order it, I'll treat you."

"This year's latest Dahongpao will do too?"

Hua Liuli patted the purse around her waist: "It's okay, I have money."

"Have you made a fortune?"

"Yeah." Hua Liuli smiled and said, "The prince sent me so much gold and silver jewelry every three or five minutes, and I don't have a place to spend it."

Jiamin: "… "

What is the sour smell in the air, her jealousy.

"The county owner is really nice." Yao Wenyin sighed, "I used the prince's money to support us, and I am touched by the earth-shattering sisterhood."

Jiamin frowned, and it seemed that there was some truth in saying that. But according to this kind of thinking, she has a feeling that Hua Liuli is a scumbag.

bah bah bah.

"Little cousin, don't joke around." Jiamin interrupted the terrible guess in her mind: "I have goosebumps all over my body."

Yao Wenyin wanted to say that she didn't mean to joke, but she thought of the prince's temper and swallowed it back.

Forget it, forget it, don't bother.

The people of the capital like to join in the fun, and with the openness of the folk customs, the imperial court does not care that they make up stories about Emperor Changlong, so the stories about Emperor Changlong who go to heaven and cut down demons are very popular among the people.

Fortunately, Jiamin had a fixed box in the restaurant, otherwise there would be no seats. When they arrived, Mr. Storyteller was on the rise, and many people applauded.

Hua Liuli and the others sat down in the box on the second floor and asked the waiter to remove the screen so that they could listen to the storyteller downstairs.

"It's too late to say it, it's too late, His Majesty's backhand is a sword, and I saw that the monster with iron teeth and copper skin was split in half..."

"The Empress Dowager said that when Uncle Huang was young, he was not good at riding and shooting, let alone slashing monsters with his sword. He couldn't even draw a heavy bow." Jiamin whispered, "These people really know how to make up, but it sounds like It's quite interesting."

"Hey, look over there." Tian Shan reached out and pointed to the corner secretly: "Is it the third prince of the Tortoiseshell Country?"

Hua Liuli and Jiamin looked over together, and saw He Yuanting, the third tortoiseshell prince, sitting in the corner drinking tea with a melancholy expression. Besides the tortoiseshell envoys, there were also the Imperial Guards of the Jin Dynasty.

These janitorial guards were all carefully selected experts, who followed the tortoiseshell envoy in the name of protecting the envoy's safety. Hua Liuli suspected that the reason for the Imperial Guard to follow the tortoise shell envoy was to escape for the third prince, but this order was given by the prince, and she could not demolish her fiance's platform.

"I heard that the crown prince of the tortoiseshell country passed away. The third prince is the prince and a mother and brother. It is very likely that the next prince will be him." Jiamin is a royal relative, and he has heard news about other countries to some extent: "But the tortoiseshell There is more than one prince in the country, he is now staying in the capital of Jin Kingdom, and he is not sure what he will look like in his heart."

"According to your tone, I don't seem to like him very much." Hua Liuli was a little surprised, Jiamin and the third tortoiseshell prince should have nothing to do with each other.

"I don't like it very much." Jiamin nodded.

"Why?" Yao Wenyin asked.

"There is no reason." Jiamin was stunned for a while, there is really no reason to hate the third prince of the tortoiseshell, but he felt that he was not pleasing to the eye: "I hate someone, do you need a reason?"

Yao Wenyin: "..."

Hua Liuli glanced at Jiamin. Jiamin might not have noticed it, but Hua Liuli had already discovered that Jiamin's intuition was sometimes accurate.

When she first entered the capital, Jiamin could subconsciously notice that she was different from the outside, and there were other noble ladies in the capital, Jiamin could even accurately detect who was just trying to please her on the surface and who really wanted to be nice to her.

It is precisely because of this that Jiamin, who has been pampered since childhood, developed the annoying problem of "talking too much".

However, after her "friendly exchanges" with Jiamin in the past few months, this problem has been improved a lot.

Just thinking about it, Hua Liuli found that He Yuanting raised his head and looked towards them.

She took a sip of the honey water and concealed the emotion in her eyes. The third prince was very alert. He could detect it just by looking at him twice, and could accurately find the source of the sight.

"Hello, the two princesses, the girls." He Yuanting came over with a blushing face. He might not be used to being so close to women, and he was a little helpless: "I didn't expect it to be so coincidental."

Several guards in regular clothes followed, and they all cheered up when they saw that the person He Yuanting wanted to see was the Fushou County Master.

"Third Highness." Jiamin got up and gave a salute, Hua Liuli followed and salutes without saying a word.

He Yuanting glanced over Hua Liuli, then lowered his head quickly: "Hello, hello."

Jiamin twisted her body and blocked Hua Liuli behind her. She said indifferently, "Why is the Third Highness listening to the book here?"

He Yuanting's expression was a little gloomy: "I got the news from the country two days ago, the next brother..." Before he finished speaking, his eyes reddened, "I am in your country, and I can't rush back to see the emperor for the last time, so I have to come out. Relax."

He Yuanting is good-looking, and his sad appearance is also very distressing. If it were an ordinary woman, she would have developed a heart of sympathy.

But he was facing several famous playgirls in the capital of the Great Jin Dynasty. He had long been used to seeing pitiful men, so he was already immune to He Yuanting's appearance.

As for Hua Liuli, who has a heart of pity and cherishing jade, the prince who has a good-looking face, speaks nicely, and is generous but loves to eat jealousy every day, already has the self-consciousness not to provoke other men.

So after he finished speaking, no one spoke, and the atmosphere became so stiff.

In the end, Tian Shan, who was still relatively soft-hearted, said: "The dead cannot be resurrected, the Third Highness, please mourn."

But other than that, she had nothing else to say. Having read various scriptures, she felt that at such times, talking too much was just giving the other party a chance.

"Thank you girl." He Yuanting looked embarrassed at Tian Shan's face and bowed his thanks to Tian Shan.

Hua Liuli raised her eyebrows slightly as she looked at the tortoiseshell prince who was not good at communicating with women.

"I came down to find the two county masters today, because I have something to ask for." He Yuanting took a deep breath. For him, asking for help was a bit difficult to explain: "Sister She wants to stay in your country to study and return to China next time. In the future, I don’t know when I will be able to see her sister. She has a gentle personality and is a character that will not fight or grab. I implore the two county masters to take care of her in their spare time.”

Jiamin sneered in her heart, she is the daughter of a princess, how can she manage the affairs of the Royal Academy? As for what the tortoiseshell princess will arrange in the future, she is even more unable to intervene.

Where did he come to beg her, he clearly came to beg Hua Liuli, the future crown princess.

If this happened a few months ago, she would definitely feel dissatisfied with Hua Liuli because of this remark.

As for now...

She has no idea other than to keep smiling.

"Please rest assured, Your Highness." Hua Liuli also heard what He Yuanting meant, and she said after a long silence: "The princess of your country came to study in this country, and that is the student of this country. His Majesty Changlong, who is respected by this country, has always respected those who study. , even if Lingmei is just an ordinary girl, my country will treat her kindly, not to mention that she is a princess of a country."

"If you have the county master, you can rest assured." He Yuanting bowed his hands and thanked: "Stay back in the next country, and everything will be entrusted to your country."

Hearing him mention the word "return to China" several times, Hua Liuli smiled and said nothing.

He Yuanting looked at Liuli, hesitantly said: "The county master, there is one more thing I want to ask the county master to ask. Although your country is good, but I am homesick..."

Before he finished speaking, a man in a black brocade walked in. He was very ostentatious and attracted the attention of many tea guests.

Even Jiamin and the others' attention was attracted to the past.

"Why is Prince Ying here?" Yao Wenyin took a deep breath: "Should we send someone down and tell Mr. Storyteller to stop talking?"

It is okay for the King of England to invite someone to sing his Majesty's song, but he does not allow others to make it up. If he hears what the storyteller said, I am afraid it will cause trouble.

The author has something to say: King of England: Do you know what I am? I am a crab. As long as the prince is not around, I will walk sideways, don't mess with me.
