Chapter 70: The Rose Fairy of Miaoyin Fang
Xiao Mingyue thought that it was rare to take Xiao Wan out of the palace once, although she was worried about many rules, she also hoped that Xiao Wan could have a good time.
Although Xiao Wan is a princess, she was not born to a powerful imperial concubine after all, and her future fate will either be sent out to make peace, or she will become a tool for Xiao Wen to win over courtiers.
Thinking that the little princess would not be much better than herself in the future, she felt that the two people were connected by the same fate, and felt sad for the little princess and herself.
decided that even if she disobeyed the emperor's order, she would take advantage of her freedom to take the little county lord to do what she liked.
Xiao Mingyue looked at Xiao Wan dotingly and said, "Okay, just do what the princess wants, whatever the princess wants to eat and play, it's all wrapped up in Mingyue!"
Seeing that Xiao Mingyue agreed to her request, Xiao Wan said happily: "Great! Sister Mingyue! You're still the best for Huan'er!"
Xiao Mingyue whispered to Xiao Wan again: "But we have to dress up as men, firstly, to avoid the tracking of those guards, and secondly, to not attract attention." "
Xiao Wan ate the rice noodles in the bowl, and smiled at Xiao Mingyue: "Huan'er understands, Mingyue is because my sister is too beautiful!"
Xiao Mingyue said to Xiao Wan again: "It's the princess who is so beautiful, I'm afraid that someone will be abducted if I go out at night like this!"
Xiao Wan hurriedly swallowed the food in her mouth when she heard this, and said to Xiao Mingyue: "I wish I had been abducted!" In this way, I don't have to go back to the palace anymore, I stay in my room every day, except for going to the school, my mother and grandmother know that I am urging me to study, learn this and that, I am not happy at all. "
"But you are a princess, since your status is more noble than others, you naturally have to pay more than others." Xiao Mingyue said comfortingly.
Xiao Wan listened, and looked at the girl who was helping her parents sell pears outside, who was about the same age as herself.
He sighed and said, "I'd rather be an ordinary daughter, happy is really happy, unhappy is really unhappy." Unlike me, although being a princess in the eyes of others is very beautiful, in fact, I am not happy at all. "
Xiao Mingyue followed Xiao Huan's gaze and saw the girl selling pears with a sweet smile on her face.
I can't help but think that I used to have such a smile every day, it was a good time in Huaizhou City, and the days when I used to be with my cousin and Chen Xian.
With such a heartfelt smile, I don't remember how long ago it was.
"Sister Mingyue? Sister Mingyue? Xiao Wan called.
"Huh? What's wrong, Hello? Xiao Mingyue asked.
Xiao Wan smiled and said, "My sister was distracted just now, what was she thinking?" "
Xiao Mingyue said: "I'm thinking about whether we should go to listen to pipa music or opera first in the evening. "
Xiao Wan thought for a while, then smiled: "Go!" Otherwise, how about listening to the pipa tonight and listening to the opera tomorrow night? "
Xiao Mingyue nodded and said, "Yes, just according to what the princess said." But we'll have to change our clothes first!"
"Sister Yue'er." Xiao Wan said.
"When you change into men's clothes, you will call me Brother Xiao Ming, and I will call you Brother Xiao Zhi! How is it? Xiao Mingyue said.
"Sounds good, that's it. Brother Ming!"
"Brother Zhi'er!"
The two men smiled and called each other.
After eating rice noodles, the two of them went to the tailor's shop, and one of them chose a few men's clothes that suited them and put them on.
After that, the two of them walked to the downtown area.
Xiao Wan smiled: "Dressed like this, those people won't be able to find us!"
Xiao Mingyue said: "Having said that, it's just that tonight is at most, if we don't go back, Your Majesty will definitely send people to search for us in the whole city, and we will have to go back sooner or later!"
Xiao Wan frowned and said, "Then let's keep a low profile and try not to let them find out too early." "
Xiao Mingyue nodded and said, "Don't worry, we can drag it out for two or three days!"
With that, the two of them went shopping.
Xiao Wan saw that there were people selling zongzi cakes, so she begged Xiao Mingyue to buy zongzi cakes. Xiao Mingyue looked at Xiao Wan fondly and said, "Okay, good!" Zhi'er can eat whatever he wants, and Brother Ming will buy it for you!"
After that, he paid for two packs of zongzi cakes for Xiao Huan.
"Brother Ming is the best!" Xiao Wan said while eating it hot.
Xiao Mingyue suddenly remembered that she had just arrived in Jiankang, and her cousins Xiao Zhong and Chen Xian also took her shopping like this.
When I was shopping, my cousin often said, "If your cousin likes something, just buy it, and your cousin will give it to you!"
Now it's a memory, I don't know where my cousin is, whether he is well fed and warmly dressed?
thought of the store where Chen Xian gave him the bracelet, so he took Xiao Wan to find the jewelry store.
However, when he saw that the jewelry shop had been replaced by a rice shop, he went in and asked why.
The boss inside said: "The previous boss was sick, and his children didn't have a shop for him, so he exchanged the jewelry shop, and I didn't know anything about jewelry or anything like that, so I opened a rice shop." "
Xiao Mingyue heard this, and left disappointed.
Xiao Wan followed behind her and asked curiously, "Is there anything different about that jewelry shop?" "
Xiao Mingyue replied: "It's nothing, it's just that I've been there before, thinking that the jewelry there is good, I wanted to take a look again, but I didn't want to be there." "
Xiao Wan listened, comforted and said, "Then let's go to another house to have a look!" Maybe it's better than this one!"
"Hmm!" Xiao Mingyue nodded.
So the two of them continued to visit the jewelry shop, rouge shop, pastry shop and so on.
Xiao Mingyue bought some jewelry that Xiao Wan liked, her daughter's rouge, and her favorite snacks.
The two of them walked around until the evening, and Xiao Huan's mouth never stopped, eating this bag of dim sum and eating that bag of dim sum.
Xiao Mingyue said with a smile on the side: "Zhi'er eat slowly and support your appetite carefully." "
Xiao Wan said: "It doesn't hurt to hold on, the dim sum in the palace is not as delicious as outside the palace, and the mother and grandmother often don't let Huan'er eat enough, and Wan'er usually can only eat eight points full." "
After speaking, she lowered her head and continued: "The mother said that her daughter's family can't just think about eating, she will break the rules and become stupid. "
When Xiao Mingyue heard this, she said: "What your mother said is that as princesses and princes, they are more harsh in their diet and daily life than ordinary children. "
"That sister...... Was Brother Ming like this before? Xiao Wan asked simply.
"Yes, it was like this when I was a child, but every time I was woken up hungry at night, I asked Amber to secretly go to the kitchen to find food, and she and I suffered a lot of boards for this!"
After saying that, the two of them laughed together.
Xiao Mingyue said: "In a while, we will go to the largest restaurant in Jiankang City to eat delicious food, and Zhi'er can eat as much as he wants!"
After speaking, the two of them went to Baoyue Xuanbao for a meal.
Dinner. Xiao Wan said: "It's really a joke, as the princess of this imperial city, this meal is my first full meal since I was a child!"
"How many full meals have I had? No more than five times anyway!" Xiao Mingyue said.
The two talked and laughed, chatted while eating, and talked a lot about the "inhuman treatment" they experienced as a noble lady.
After the meal, the two of them came to Miaoyin Fang, ready to listen to the tune.
Miaoyinfang is a famous song workshop in the whole Jiankang City.
There are many singing and dancing girls, and there are many people who are proficient in music and rhythm, but they are different from the women in the Qinglou, they belong to the literati, the best place for dignitaries to drink and eat tea, and talk about things to relieve boredom.
And Xiao Mingyue is also the first time to come here, I always heard my cousin mention it before, and I wanted to come for a long time, but my cousin always didn't agree to bring me here.
When I entered the Miaoyin Fang, I saw that the audience inside was like a mountain, and it was almost impossible to see the inside and outside.
Xiao Mingyue took Xiao Wan to find a vacant place on the second floor and sat down, gave the little girl in the workshop a piece of silver, and asked the little girl to bring some fruit bowls and tea.
I saw the boss in charge below, a man with a square face and a little hunchbacked, and said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, it is a good fortune to come today. Today's Oiran in the workshop, the rose fairy. will bring you the famous song, "Ambush on All Sides"! I hope you will give you a lot of cheers and rewards!
"Good, good"
"Rose Fairy! Rose Fairy!"
"When is Rose Girl coming out?"
…………
A group of people upstairs and downstairs asked.
"Rest easy, Roses are getting dressed up, and will be there later. Let's enjoy the singing and dancing first. "
After that, the boss called someone to urge the roses.
Xiao Wan said: "This rose fairy is so popular, I want to come to her extraordinary music, I will have a good look at it in a while, and see what she is good at?" "
Xiao Mingyue replied: "Don't worry, we'll find out later." "
After speaking, the little girl brought the tea and fruit plate over.
Xiao Mingyue asked, "This rose fairy is the best artist you have here, right?" "
"Yes, the Rose Fairy is not only beautiful, but also plays the pipa well, famous far and wide, many people come for her, one to see the beauty, and the other to appreciate her pipa music. The two of you are here for the first time, and they often come in the future, so they know that this rose fairy is not a guest every day, in a month, there are only about ten days on the stage to perform, and the rest of the days, even the current emperor invites her not to go! "
"So personal? What an unusual woman!" Xiao Wan said.
"Yes, but even so, every time she performs on stage, there are more and more guests every time!" The little girl said.
"In this way, there must be more than one thing about this rose fairy. It seems that we are lucky to meet the Rose Fairy today. Xiao Mingyue said.
"yes, it's really exciting!" Xiao Wan also said.
After about half a cup of tea, I heard the boss say, "The rose fairy has arrived!" Rose Fairy arrives!"
Xiao Mingyue and Xiao Wan looked at it, only to see a woman wearing a pink skirt and half-covering her face, walking over from one end of the corridor, and only half of her face could be seen vaguely, but the rose fairy was skin better than snow, and her eyes were like waves, which made people feel intoxicated.
The shouts and cheers from below continued.
And the rose fairy slowly walked down, picked up the lute in her hand, and prepared to play.
