Chapter 50: Outside the Palace
Jiang Wan looked at the room, this was much larger than the side room in her Luoyun Xuan, she couldn't believe that this was just a guest room used to entertain guests.
When I entered the courtyard, I found that there were many masters planted in the jade bamboo garden, and there was more than one, and there was a small pond in the yard with white lotus flowers.
"Ye Gongzi is really an elegant person, behind every elegant and simple scenery in this mansion, there is a subtle extravagance."
Jiang Wan was curious about Ye Gongzi's identity, but he also knew that it was already tiring for him to be taken in, and he couldn't get to the bottom of these privacy.
"Miss Ling, a few slaves and maids are here to wait for you to bathe and change your clothes."
A few maidservants walked in, Jiang Wan nodded, and agreed obediently. In the warm water, Jiang Wan swept away his tiredness, but he couldn't help but think of his son who was alone in the palace.
"Hire'er, I broke my promise."
Jiang Wan felt guilty for not being able to leave the palace with Ping'er, because she was too anxious, and only hoped that Xia Yahan and the Queen Mother could shelter Ping'er after she left.
Jiang Wan lay on the bed after bathing and changing, looking at the loose bed curtains. The room was lit with soothing incense, and before she knew it, she fell into a deep sleep.
On the second day, the sun shined through the window, and Jiang Wan was awakened by the voice of the maidservant.
"I slept so deeply, it seems that the effect of this incense is indeed very strong."
In the tray carried by the maidservants were a few clothes and accessories, "Miss Ling, this is what the master asked the slaves and maids to send over, do you think you like it?" β
Jiang Wan was stunned, Ye Gongzi was so considerate and made her a little flattered. Jiang Wan got up, "You don't need to hold it, put it on the table." β
She stepped forward and looked at the clothes in front of her, and sure enough, the colors were very elegant, plain white, light blue, and light cyan. There are three sets of clothes, the workmanship is very meticulous, and the touch is also very comfortable, it seems to be a superior product, and the price will not be too approachable.
"That's it."
Jiang Wan chose a light blue one, and the two maidservants stepped forward to wait for Jiang Wan to wash up, and then changed Jiang Wan's clothes and makeup, while the rest of the maidservants took the remaining two sets.
"Miss Ling Kite was born with a good appearance, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is a beautiful woman who has captivated the country and the city."
Jiang Wan, who had finished her makeup, looked at herself in the bronze mirror, she had never been so delicate since she crossed over, and Jiang Wan's beauty bloomed at this moment.
"It's too famous, where can I afford the four words of the country and the city, don't make fun of me."
Jiang Wan found out the former her from the memory of the original owner in her mind, and at that time, she was the first to become a queen.
The maidservant led Jiang Wan to the front hall for breakfast, if no one led her, Jiang Wan was afraid that she would get lost in this mansion. Ye Gongzi, as always, arrived first, waiting for Jiang Wan's arrival in the front hall.
"I'm late, let Ye Gongzi wait, and hope that Ye Gongzi will forgive his sins."
Jiang Wan bowed slightly to Ye Gongzi, and when she got up, Ye Gongzi's eyes flashed with a hint of light.
Not only Ye Gongzi, everyone present was surprised by Jiang Wan's appearance, if Jiang Wan's simple outfit yesterday made people feel that it was just a girl's house with some looks, today's Jiang Wan is like a jewel that has fallen into the dust to regain its glory.
"Where is the girl Ling, this dress still fits, and the preparation is in a hurry, can the girl go to the street to buy it together today?"
Ye Gongzi came back to his senses from the shock that Jiang Wan brought him, and felt that his actions just now were too rude, and cast an apologetic look at Jiang Wan.
Jiang Wan knew that this was human nature, so he smiled, "It's really annoying Ye Gongzi." β
"Miss Ling Kite is polite."
After breakfast, Jiang Wan got into the carriage of leaving the house, the carriage was not the one she came out of the palace before, but a small carriage that she rode alone.
"Miss Ling, you and I are different from men and women, so I have prepared two carriages below."
"Ye Gongzi is so careful, it makes me sigh to myself."
Ye Gongzi's carriage was in front, and Jiang Wan's was behind. Jiang Wan went out of the palace last time and went directly to the royal nunnery, but this time he had the opportunity to take a good look around the capital.
Jiang Wan looked at the surging crowd outside the car window, listening to the noisy and chaotic shouting, and only felt that this was the life it should be. It was summer, the temperature was gradually rising, and Jiang Wan lowered the curtain.
Just when Jiang Wan felt a little dry in his mouth, the carriage stopped.
"Miss Ling, please get out of the car."
The coachman's voice sounded outside, and Jiang Wan lifted the curtain and walked down. Ye Gongzi walked up to her and asked the two coachmen to drive back to the house first. There was only one subordinate left around, and it was the indifferent man who drove that day.
Jiang Wan looked at the faΓ§ade they were facing each other, which was a plainly decorated teahouse. The guy standing outside the door greeted him, "Ye Gongzi, you are here, you are really a rare guest, please come inside." β
"Miss Ling, please."
Jiang Wan nodded and walked into the teahouse with Ye Gongzi. Judging by the performance of the guys, Ye Gongzi should be a repeat customer here, but since this teahouse can enter Ye Gongzi's eyes, it must also have its advantages.
At this time, there were not many people in the teahouse, and there was an odaiba in the teahouse, which seemed to be for storytellers. Jiang Wan couldn't help but take a few more looks.
"There are a few storytellers here every month, and the storyteller is a capable person who is good at ventriloquism, if the girl is interested, the day after tomorrow will open with the girl to accompany the girl."
Jiang Wan was interested when she heard this, she had never seen the techniques of this era, and looked at Ye Gongzi with surprise in her eyes, "Ye Gongzi is serious?" β
"There's no penchant for deceiving people."
"Thank you so much Ye Gongzi."
Ye Gongzi smiled, lightly flicked the folding fan and took Jiang Wan straight up to the third floor, and there were already guys waiting at the door at the end of the third floor.
"Ye Gongzi, it's all ready, please."
"There is labor."
The door was opened, Jiang Wan felt a fresh breeze blowing in his face, and it turned out that there were several windows in the room, all of which had been opened at this time. Ye Gongzi made a gesture of invitation to Jiang Wan.
The subordinates who originally followed Ye Gongzi waited until the two walked in, then closed the door and retreated outside the door to wait.
"Miss Kite, please be seated."
"Ye Gongzi, please take a seat."
A small case is placed in the middle of the seat, and the spout of the purple clay pot with tea is wafting the fragrance of tea leaves.
"It's good tea, and it's also exquisite to brew it in a purple clay pot."
Jiang Wan knows something about tea, in her previous life, she didn't like to drink coffee, so whenever she was tired, she would make tea to refresh herself, and over time she became obsessed with this charm.
Jiang Wan also collected many kinds of tea because of this, and also studied various knowledge of tea.
"Miss Ling Kite understands tea?"
This made Ye Gongzi a little surprised, he was more interested in Jiang Wan, and at the same time he was suspicious of Jiang Wan's "life experience" mentioned before.
Jiang Wan shook his head, "It's just that I understand, but I don't understand." β
Ye Gongzi flicked his sleeves and poured a cup of tea for Jiang Wan, and a little tea ran out of the spout and swirled in the cup. Jiang Wan bowed, picked up the cup and hid it behind his sleeve, and took a sip.
"This tea belongs to rock tea, and I think it should be the first big red robe of rock tea."
"The girl is smart, she is the big red robe, and she likes this tea the most."
Ye Gongzi didn't expect Jiang Wan to recognize this tea, and he was surprised and appreciative of Jiang Wan.
However, Jiang Wan's heart is much more complicated, because she knows the growth environment of rock tea, and only a few areas in this country will produce rock tea, so rock tea itself is precious, not to mention the first rock tea.
Such an inconspicuous teahouse can invite dynamic people, and there can be such precious tea seeds, just like Ye Gongzi in front of her, they are all hidden existences.
"Ye Gongzi praised it falsely, I was just lucky enough to taste my father's light once, so I happened to recognize it, and I didn't dare to get an axe."
Jiang Wan was careless for a while, and never thought that this might be Ye Gongzi's temptation of himself, so he found a reason to cover up the past. And Ye Gongzi couldn't hear the problem in Jiang Wan's words.
The big red robe is worth one or two gold, if her father is really just an ordinary businessman, where can he get it. However, in Ye Gongzi's opinion, Jiang Wan's performance did not have any other weirdness, so he didn't make any moves first.
Jiang Wan and Ye Gongzi have their own thoughts, drink tea as usual, and chat first if they have a match or not. Jiang Wan looked out the window, no wonder there was wind, outside the window was a river, and occasionally boats passed by.
"This river leads all the way to the outside of the capital, there are a lot of scenery along the way, look at the sky, tomorrow will be a little rainy, the most suitable for taking a boat boat to enjoy the river."
When Jiang Wan heard Ye Gongzi say that this river could be connected to the outside of the capital, she was a little overjoyed, which undoubtedly pointed out the way for her in the future.
Jiang Wan took the initiative to propose, "Ling Kite has a reluctant request, I haven't been out of the palace for a long time, and now since I am bothering Ye Gongzi's mansion and want to walk around the capital for a few days, I wonder if Ye Gongzi can agree?" β
Ye Gongzi smiled after hearing this, and did not refuse, "Naturally, you can, but Miss Ling Kite is not familiar with life, so she can only come down to be your guide." β
Ye Gongzi naturally couldn't let Jiang Wan go alone, and he also liked getting along with Jiang Wan, he wanted to know what kind of accidents this interesting woman could bring him.
Jiang Wan knew that Ye Gongzi was cautious, but she didn't think about fleeing silently, so she agreed.
"It's really annoying Ye Gongzi, I don't know how to repay it."
"Miss Ling Kite and Zai talk very happily like bosom friends, but they are just some thoughts in the next place, and they don't need any reciprocation."
Ye Gongzi shook the folding fan lightly, his handsome face with a gentle smile, Jiang Wan looked at him, and the strange master was like Jade Gongzi Shi Wushuang is talking about such a person.
If it were another girl's family, she might have been overwhelmed by Ye Gongzi a long time ago, but she would not have feelings in her heart, some were just admiration and appreciation, after all, behind the mystery of his identity may be a whirlpool that ordinary people do not see.
"Ling Kite is just a civilian woman, where can she become a bosom friend with Ye Gongzi."
Every conversation between Jiang Wan and Ye Gongzi is like playing Tai Chi, you come and go. Jiang Wan and Ye Gongzi also did not get useful information about each other's identities.
