Chapter 5 Women disguise themselves as men

"Chang Xi, when I go back to the room in a while, you have to tell me about what has happened in the past year, so as not to be embarrassed like today next time......" Chang Jiyao frowned, and was about to vent a few more words, when he suddenly heard the voice of the second uncle not far away. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can rest assured, I have already ordered someone to prepare the silver taels, and the seven tests have been delayed for so long, it's time to start."

"Ahem, this king naturally trusts you, these seven tests don't matter, this king came to visit today for Ji Yao, since Ji Yao is not here, then this king will leave first."

Chang Jiyao heard the prince's hurried footsteps coming this way, and hurriedly pulled Chang Xi to hide under the banana leaves, a pair of bright eyes vigilantly staring at the movement outside.

"This prince is really, isn't it enough for the Chang family to be devoured by him? This time, we will take out five thousand taels of gold for nothing. Chang Xi flattened his mouth and played with the withered grass in his hand, quite complaining.

"Five thousand taels of gold!" Chang Jiyao straightened up excitedly, and Chang Xi was startled and hurriedly covered her mouth and dragged her under the banana leaves.

This movement was not small, and the leg that the prince was about to step out of suddenly paused, turned around quickly but saw nothing, and then shook his head and left the house.

Chang Jiyao glanced at the prince out of the mansion, and then turned his back and said in shock: "Five thousand taels of gold? That's 40,000 taels of silver! It's enough to pay half a year's military salary! Is this crazy, Prince? ”

"Miss......" Chang Xi's eyes flashed, and her face suddenly showed nervousness, but Chang Jiyao cut off her words coldly, "Don't talk yet, wait until I finish speaking, I remember that my father once said that most of our Chang family's money flows into the East Palace every year." Our Chang family is rich, but it's not the case, the prince uses our Chang family as a money maker, and this must have a bottom. ”

"Chang Xi, do you think this is the reason?" Chang Jiyao finished speaking in one breath, seeing that Chang Xi stiffened his face and didn't speak, he twisted his eyebrows and said, "Why are you dumb when you talk at this time?" ”

"Ji Yao......"

The second uncle's vicissitudes of life and steady voice suddenly came from his side, and Chang Jiyao was so startled by this call without warning that he sat down on the ground, and his heart was pounding fast.

"Second Uncle...... It just so happened that Ji Yao had something to ask the second uncle...... Chang Ji Yao slowly came back to his senses, got up and met the deep gaze of the second uncle, and said, "Second uncle, the prince is not advisable to do this, five thousand taels of gold is too much, such an eye-catching act will inevitably lead to disaster!" ”

The second uncle's temples twitched slightly, and he looked at Ji Yao with a funny smile: "At the beginning, I said that there was a lot of gold, it was too ostentatious, who said with certainty that the general trend of the world has been decided, and the prince's ascension to the throne is inevitable. ”

Who said that? Could it be that she ......" Chang Jiyao blurted out almost subconsciously, and Chang Xi on the side hurriedly tugged on her sleeve and lowered her voice, "It's you, Miss!" ”

Chang Jiyao's heart trembled, a little smile appeared on his uneasy face, and he raised his forehead and said, "Hehe...... Second uncle, I just came out of the altar, and I went to the palace to face the saint and go to the Jiangfu to thank me, I was really tired, so I went back to the room to rest first. ”

"Well, it's time for a good rest, you go." The second uncle glanced at her, nodded slightly, and when he saw her fleeing in a hurry, he suddenly remembered something, and chased after her, "By the way, a few days will be the birthday of Princess Xie Wu, she sent someone to send an invitation card over, and I asked Donglan to send it to your room." ”

Chang Jiyao's back stiffened, and he said "yes" loudly, and waited for a while to see that the second uncle had nothing to say, and then rushed to the room like the wind on the soles of his feet.

"When will the seven tests start?"

"Tomorrow, in Yuhua Garden in the western suburbs, I heard that even a few princesses and princes can't help but join in the fun this time, and they all want to be a judge and have a good time." Chang Xi smiled.

"Humph! It's not so easy to cheat my Chang family's money! Chang Jiyao stopped, his peaceful eyes showed some competitiveness, and then he pushed open the door in front of him and rushed into the room to search around.

Chang was puzzled and watched her run from left to right, lying down and standing on the stool, but he couldn't help much, so he hurriedly said, "What are you looking for?" Chang Xi is looking for a piece, right? ”

"No, I'll find it myself, you can clean up some soft for me, so I can go out and use it." Chang Jiyao held a lot of bamboo slips in her arms while speaking, looking at her struggling appearance, the weight of this book must not be light.

Chang Xi walked strangely to the bed and asked reluctantly, "Miss, is this going out?" Where to? Do you want to bring it with you? ”

Seeing that she had no time to respond to herself, Chang Xi laughed secretly and prepared a few clothes for herself.

Wherever her young lady went, she had to follow.

"Smack!"

Chang Jiyao clapped his hands, looked at the large box of treasures in front of him with satisfaction, and said to himself: "With these things, this little seven tests will not be difficult for me." ”

"Miss is going to take the seventh test?!" Chang Xi was surprised.

"Yes, if you don't try it seven times, won't the five thousand gold be completely lost?" Chang Jiyao turned around, suddenly stopped smiling, and frowned, "What are you doing with these rouge gouaches?" We have to disguise ourselves as men, how can a woman be allowed to participate in the seventh test? I remember that there were quite a few men's robes in my room, so bring them over and change them now. ”

Chang Xi answered and hurriedly ran into the back room.

"Miss! There are no clothes to wear. ”

Hearing Chang Xi's shout, Chang Jiyao hurriedly rushed into the back room, saw her holding a water-blue robe in embarrassment, reached out to take it, and glanced at it: "Isn't this a dress?" Let's wear it, don't worry about it so much. ”

"Yes...... But this is not Miss's clothes, it's the ...... of the prince" Chang Xi looked nervously at Chang Jiyao who was trying to take off his coat, but Chang Jiyao laughed when he heard it, looking at this robe left and right, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, "So what's the matter?" Since it was placed in my house, it must have been given to me by him, so what's wrong with wearing it? ”

Chang Jiyao quickly changed his clothes, looking at the water-blue long sleeves and couldn't help but bow his head and smile, he glanced at Chang Xi, who was stunned, and urged: "Hurry up and change your clothes, you won't be able to catch up if it's late." ”

"I know, I know, I'll change it."

Chang Jiyao walked to the window and took a look, it was not early, if it was late today, then he could only go again tomorrow, and it was nothing.

It's just that he is too familiar with those princes and princesses, and it must be a matter of time before his identity is recognized, so instead of being stopped at the door by them tomorrow, it is better to prepare early while they haven't gone to Yuhuayuan yet.

"Miss, I'm ready!"
