Chapter 015: Gathering in Lingsui (5)
"That, it's okay, I'm fine, eat vegetables, eat vegetables" Jian Ning laughed dryly, and began to bow her head and eat vegetables.
"Princess Bingning, do you have something to say to you?" Not long after, Hua Yuebai couldn't help but ask.
Jian Ning's gaze from time to time really made him very unaccustomed.
"Huh? In fact, it's not a particularly important thing, I just want to ask the second prince for a favor. Jian Ning looked at Hua Yuebai with a slightly flattering smile.
"Ning'er, what's the help that this hall can't help? Why don't you look for me, but for him? When Xiahou Yan heard this, he immediately stopped doing it and asked anxiously.
But Jian Ning didn't pay attention to Xiahou Yan, but continued to look at Hua Yuebai.
"What's the matter?" Hua Yuebai looked at Xiahou Yan, then at Jian Ning, and asked.
"I want to see the Queen." Jian Ning paused and continued, "The last dinner bothered the queen, so I prepared a thin gift to thank you in person. β
There's no good reason to look for Hua Yongyan, so you can only find Mianyin, it's all the same anyway.
Hua Yuebai's face was slightly surprised, and she looked at Jian Ning and said, "Since you think it was a nuisance last time, isn't it this time?" The queen mother has never been with people, I'm afraid this favor will not be able to help. β
Jian Ning didn't expect Hua Yuebai to refuse so simply, and she was a little overwhelmed. After a turn of his mind, he immediately said: "Then as a guest of honor, I want to visit the Second Prince's Mansion, and the Second Prince should not refuse, right?" β
She went to visit the Second Prince's Mansion with great fanfare, and Hua Yongyan would definitely receive the news, with his cleverness. You should be able to think that you must be looking for him for something if you behave abnormally like this.
"Ning'er, why do I think you're not right today?" Xiahou Yan stared straight at Jian Ning's eyes and said, "Besides, what's so good about a prince's mansion?" β
"Since Princess Bingning said so, this palace will not refuse." Hua Yuebai suddenly opened her mouth at this time, but deliberately said to Xiahou Yan, "As for what is there to see in my prince's mansion, I will know if I go." However, for Prince Yan, the prince's mansion in this palace is really nothing to see, after all, there are no three thousand beauties! β
Looking at Hua Yuebai's smiling face. Xiahou Yan's face turned green in an instant. The first reaction was to go see Jian Ning.
At the beginning, I thought it was nothing, the officials below, the small country of Fanbang kept sending women into the house, and he accepted all the orders. Anyway, there is no shortage of places to support these people in the Prince's Mansion. But now. He only then found out that these women could be a big problem. He never dared to make a premise on Jian Ning's face.
After eating, Jian Ning arrived at the prince's mansion as she wished.
It is not as majestic as the palace, and it is not as splendid as the palace. But it's unique. It can be seen that the owner has extraordinary taste.
The Second Prince's Mansion occupies an excellent geographical location, far away from the downtown area, and enjoys a peaceful place. Under the four gilded characters of "Prince's Mansion" is the emperor's seal, which shows that Hua Yongyan attaches great importance to Hua Yuebai.
Jian Ning asked Xiahou Yan before why there was no one named king after Lingsui's prince moved out of the palace. Xiahou Yan replied to her at the time because Ling Sui was a prince, and the emperor wanted to show fairness and avoid too obvious imperial power struggles, so he would never be crowned king before he was crowned prince.
Inside the gate, there is a large garden, with plum trees in the middle, except for a planked path leading to the vestibule.
"It's a unique design, and most people plant this plum tree in the backyard instead of the front yard." Jian Ning smelled the plum fragrance and said lightly.
"This hall has always disliked being the same as people, and besides, it would be a pity if Merlin was planted in the backyard!" Hua Yuebai knew that Jian Ning wasn't really talking to him, but he still answered.
"It's just a piece of plum forest, if Ning'er likes it, the main hall will make a piece for you at that time." Xiahou Yan pouted.
Jian Ning smiled lightly. Walking into Merlin, Jian Ning also somewhat understood Hua Yuebai's words, these Merlins were not planted here in an orderly manner, it could be used to set up formations.
After passing through Merlin, there is the front hall, and the decoration also surprises Jian Ning. Unlike the mansions of the general royal family, which are extremely luxurious, there is an elegant simplicity here.
There are not too many furnishings, but it can be seen that every furnishing is wasted.
It should have come to visit, and Hua Yuebai did not stop in the front hall. A long hallway leads to the backyard.
The corridor is very long, the height of the repair is staggered, and there is a pavilion in the middle part.
Because of the weather in Lingsui, there are not many flowers and plants in the house, but this does not mean that the house will be monotonous. Borrowing rockeries and some strangely shaped boulders, the garden is created to look like a small snow-capped mountain, surrounded by some ornamental evergreens.
"This piece of white expanse, where will there be a beautiful flower of my prince's mansion with red willow green." Xiahou Yan looked disgusted, and said to Jian Ning, "Ning'er, I can see almost this way, why don't I send you back." β
Hua Yuebai didn't say much to Xiahou Yan, and said to Jian Ning: "The most unique place in the mansion is actually not the Merlin just now, but the ice lake behind. β
"Frozen lake? But can you play with ice? Jian Ning was a little surprised.
"I didn't expect you to know about Bingxi. This is an activity that is unique to my Lingsui, and people from other countries don't know about it, let alone women. Hua Yuebai was slightly surprised.
"It's nothing, but I've just heard of it." Jian Ning smiled and explained simply.
Although she is afraid of the cold, in modern times, ice skating is a sport that she loves very much, probably because she likes the feeling of sliding against the wind.
"Will the princess? In fact, the Lingsui royal family holds an ice competition every year, if the princess is interested, stay for an extra month and participate in this year's competition with us. Hua Yuebai said to Jian Ning while leading the two of them to the ice lake behind.
"It's just walking on the ice, there's going to be so much fun, and it's going to be cold. Ning'er, you're so afraid of the cold, you won't like it, right? Xiahou Yan's eyes became more and more disgusted when he looked at Hua Yuebai.
"Actually, I still like this, but it may not be very good, and I am afraid it can't be compared with the second prince." Jian Ning smiled lightly.
After passing through a small door, a huge ice rink suddenly opened up in front of you.
Jian Ning originally thought that the ice rink in the mansion would not be very large, but now it seems that she still underestimated the rich man Cheng DΓΉ of the ancients.
The ice field formed by the freezing of the lake is about the size of a semi-regular skating rink. The area occupies almost half of the entire Prince's Palace.
"I didn't expect it to be so big!" Jian Ning sighed sincerely. You must know that the kind of private skating rink she usually goes to is only three or four hundred square meters, which is five or six times smaller than the standard arena used in national competitions, not to mention compared to here.
Hua Yuebai was obviously very satisfied with this place, the reason why he didn't choose the mansion in a lively place at that time, but chose a more remote place, and it was this lake that he fancied.
"Your Highness, Master Le is here." At this time, the director of the house came in a hurry and said. (To be continued......)
