"Master, don't blame me, Your Highness also wants to surprise you." Aunt Qing said while looking at Pan'er's face, for fear that she would be angry.
I am not afraid that she will be angry with her, but I am afraid that she will be angry with the prince and show it on the face, because she is still young.
Pan'er was so angry that his teeth itch, surprise? I'm afraid it was frightened, but thanks to her trying to please her in every possible way, that person is as immovable as a mountain, and he was flattered by her, but he didn't do anything.
As long as she thought about how many times she had compromised without knowing how many times she lost her power and humiliated the country, he clearly understood what she was thinking, but he didn't let go, and arranged this before leaving, she wanted to turn around and go back.
Well, she won't be going back, but she will still be angry.
"You too, aunt, why did you help him hide it from me?" Pan'er said angrily.
When Aunt Qing saw her like this, she let go of her heart, and a smile appeared on her face as soon as she relaxed: "Eunuch Fu has specifically explained, you say us... you know it's fine, don't show it."
Pan'er was a little touched, but also a little helpless: "Auntie, I understand." She knew that Aunt Qing was actually doing it for her own good, and to put it bluntly, she was the concubine of an Israeli servant, so there was no way she could go up and vent her anger on the prince.
However, Aunt Qing didn't understand what was going on in her heart, and she naturally wouldn't explain it to her. She lived two lives and was able to handle the situation with the crown prince. Besides, what happened that night, Pan'er always felt that the crown prince Jean kept it from her, and it seemed to have something to do with what happened that night.
Could it be that when he woke up the next day, he still had memories of the night before
Thinking about how I fooled the prince that night, and how rebelliously I touched and kissed the forehead to him, like coaxing a child, the anger in Pan'er's heart suddenly disappeared without a trace.
It can't really have anything to do with it, can it
While she was muttering in her heart, suddenly the low bead curtain was lifted, and the prince came in from the outside.
"Why are you here?" The car didn't even stop, how did this person get up
Aunt Qing hurriedly changed from kneeling to kneeling, and bowed her waist to salute the prince.
The prince waved his hand, and Aunt Qing hurried to the outer layer of the car.
This car is the car used by the prince for traveling, it is several times larger than ordinary carriages, and it is divided into inner and outer layers. The outer layer is two or three times larger than an ordinary carriage, and there are tables and tables and a stove for making tea, etc., for living and sitting; the inner layer has a couch, although it is not as good as the Babu bed at home. , but enough to sleep two people.
The whole car was pulled by eight horses, and there were two drivers driving the car, and someone was always on hand to protect the horses in case of accidents when the horses were running.
Just from the car ride, one can see the profound heritage of the royal family. The horses that pull the cart have to be specially trained, including the coachman, and the car runs without people feeling the bumps. Didn't feel like I was in the car for a reason.
"This car doesn't run fast. It's difficult for a woman to board, but it's nothing for a man." The prince was wearing a dress, which was extraordinarily heavy. To be honest, he didn't look like he was being stingy at all.
Taking off all the clothes and crowns, and changing into a light robe with a white background and gold embroidered five dragons, the prince came to sit on the couch, Pan'er had no other place to sit, but sat beside him.
"The line is too long. I'm afraid it's already night when we get to Tongzhou. You just woke up, and you haven't had breakfast yet. I've already asked someone to prepare it. You'll eat some with me later."
Just as she was talking, Aunt Qing's voice came from outside, saying that breakfast was ready.
The crown prince and Pan'er came outside. The tables and tables in this car are all specially made, and the dishes are placed on them without moving, so the use of this breakfast is no different from usual.
Although not as rich as usual, there are meat and vegetables, porridge and noodles, which are quite complete, and they are still hot. I don't know how they are prepared.
The whole afternoon was spent on the road.
The prince fell asleep, and Pan'er read half of the storybook, then the prince got up, and the two played chess for a while.
During this period, the crown prince looked at Pan'er one after another, because she was rarely very quiet and well-behaved. Usually, this time was when she was very guilty and wanted to please others, but she would not talk so little, on the contrary, she would talk a lot.
"What? Because the lonely people are angry about what happened to you?"
"No, no!" Pan'er came to his senses and shook his head again and again.
The prince acted like you just don't want to hide it, what can Pan'er say, could it be that I'm really a little angry, but I'm guilty, so I don't dare to be angry
Surely this cannot be said.
"The concubine is really not angry."
Seeing what she said, the prince seemed to believe her, nodded and said: "It is temporarily decided to take you along, because this trip on the road is probably not too peaceful, and it is not convenient to take you with you, after all, you are a woman."
Hearing that it won't be too peaceful, Pan'er suddenly trembled, and various scenes played out in his mind.
There are too many people who dislike the prince, such as assassins, poisoning, and night attacks. King Qi and King Chu are both powerful.
If the son of the middle palace is gone, their chance will come.
Prince Pan played with bracelets and couldn't help but laugh.
Why didn't he realize that this little thing has another side besides gentleness and coquettishness? Ever since that night, when the prince looked at Pan'er's cute face again, he couldn't help but add subtext to her.
Just like what she said that night, when she said she was not angry, she must think that you are a prince, you are so powerful, I can't afford to offend you, I will definitely not be angry, but I will secretly spurn you in my heart, despise you you.
Such as now... What was going on in her mind, the prince found that he really didn't know.
On the face, he coughed lightly, and said, "What? Do you have anything to say?"
"No, no," Ke Pan'er couldn't help it, after all, it was a matter of life and death, "Your Highness, is it really dangerous? Will someone send assassins, or poison the drinking water? What should we do along the way, have we been guarding against others? Do you think we should build plank roads openly and cover Chencang secretly?"
"Mingxiu plank road to secretly save Chen Cang?" the prince murmured, his eyes became meaningful.
"That's right, it's just to get a few doubles or something, or divide the soldiers into several groups to confuse the public."
"Gu doesn't know yet, so you know the art of war?"
Pan'er shuddered, knowing that she seemed to be revealing something, and hurriedly covered it up: "I don't know much about the art of war, but when I was bored, I read a lot of books sent by His Royal Highness, and there are also scriptures and so on. They all talk about it."
"Why is the book still talking about this!"
Pan'er doesn't know how to speak, and the book never talks about these things. It only talks about the mess between scholars and rich ladies, or playboys and little nuns.
These scripts originated from the popularity of various operas in the south of the Yangtze River. Operas need opera scripts to perform, so many down-and-out scholars make a living by writing opera scripts for others. But the way to write opera scripts is too narrow. How many opera troupes can buy opera scripts and arrange them into plays? The money earned is not enough to live on.
Over time, some booksellers found that these playbooks were very popular among the female relatives of some wealthy families, and some people specially asked down-and-out scholars to write such scripts. The longer stories could be divided into more than a dozen volumes, and the short ones could be stored in one volume. Several short stories.
When Pan'er was still a thin horse, she borrowed this kind of script from her sisters at home. She once thought of writing a script to earn some money. At that time, she had a simple mind, thinking that she could earn money With some money, I might be able to go home instead of being fostered by someone who raises a thin horse. Later, I tried it and found that I was not that material at all.
Of course, that was Pan'er before he left the court, and he had very little knowledge and experience. Apart from 'at home', what he saw and heard every day was all kinds of things he heard from his sisters and Aunt Qing. If it is the current Pan'er, relying on the experience of these two lives, it is definitely not a problem to write a storybook.
Pan'er's thoughts drifted a little far away for a while, and she was a little excited. It was a pity for her two lives that she couldn't make money by writing a storybook. Should she pick it up again
But what she should think about now is not to write a script, but how to answer the prince's question.
"There are too many books that I have read, and I can't remember which one is written on it. I used to be fostered at my mother's house. I usually have nothing to do and nothing to pass the time. So some sisters secretly bought it from the market. I read a lot of the chat book along with it."
"Foster care?"
Pan'er didn't hide anything, and nodded.
The crown prince will definitely be going to Yangzhou this time on his southern tour. After all, Yangzhou is famous for its wealth and prosperity, and it is also the gathering place for the Lianghuai Saltworks. As a native of Yangzhou, it is inevitable that she will mention her life experience and even her origins from time to time. It is better to make a foreshadowing now to avoid embarrassment.
But Pan'er also knew that the crown prince must know her origin, but knowing that the crown prince knew it was two different things from learning it from her.
As a housewife and child who admires the prince very much in his heart, he should be honest with him. This is the experience summed up in the two lifetimes, so that he will understand you and get close to you after understanding. Everything is subtle.
"In that case, you still have biological parents?"
"yes."
Pan'er talked about her own experience, probably because when she was young, there was no rice to cook at home, so her mother sent her to her cousin's house around the corner, and exchanged a few taels of silver. This cousin Du Weiliang's family is one of those families in Yangzhou who specialize in raising lean horses. Because the family couldn't come up with the money to redeem her, she was kept in foster care until she was released from the cabinet this time.
She spoke very simply, and told the ins and outs in just a few sentences, but the prince's face became darker and darker when he heard it. When he went to see her again, there was no resentment on his face, and he felt that she was really a silly girl.
"Your mother didn't have the money to redeem you, she didn't want to redeem you, and she was afraid of being accused of selling her daughter, so she simply kept you there. If it's really a simple foster care, your 'mother' can ask a master to teach you art I guess they have already discussed the matter of selling you for money, but it's just another way of saying it in front of you."
Of course Pan'er knew about this matter, but no matter in her previous life or this life, she only found out after being betrayed. In fact, there is a faint understanding in my heart, but I still have expectations, and I didn't realize until I really came out that those expectations were extravagant hopes.
"I understand now. I was not young and naive at that time." Pan'er was a little embarrassed.
The prince felt pain and pity in his heart, what a silly girl, she was sold and returned money!
It's not that she was sold, and she helped count the money. The key point is that she didn't complain at all.
"Stupid girl!"
The prince nodded Pan'er's forehead, and she covered her face and hid aside, with a mournful face.
He pulled her back again, thinking that thanks to being by his side, with him watching, such things should not happen again in the future.
