Chapter 706: The Woman's Thoughts
Zhao Heng also put a lot of effort into organizing this reception banquet, the arrangement was very good, and the singing and dancing performed were not vulgar.
Knowing that Princess Xuan would come, he withdrew the beauty that had been arranged.
Others don't know, but he took the trouble to inquire, this princess Xuan is not small, not something that ordinary people can afford, if he arranges a beauty for King Xuan, I am afraid that he will touch Princess Xuan's moldy head.
What's more, looking at the appearance of King Xuan caring about the princess, he knew that King Xuan's palace had good means and ruled King Xuan obediently.
Ji Yanning didn't know what Governor Zhao was thinking, he just sat beside Rong Che and watched these singing and dancing performances, but he felt that it was not bad.
Many local officials came with their families, and the female dependents wanted to get close to the princess, but Ji Yanning was not interested and didn't want to talk too much with these people.
Zhao Yingying's eyes have been falling on Rong Che's body, she only thinks that such an excellent man, but there is only one woman in the palace, the princess, if only she could become a side concubine.
She thought like this, but inadvertently bumped into Ji Yanning's gaze, and she was a little weak and looked away.
"Why are you so distracted?" Mrs. Zhao looked at her little daughter like this and asked, "If you are not feeling well, go down and rest first." ”
Zhao Yingying shook her head and said, "I'm fine." ”
Mrs. Zhao sighed with emotion: "I didn't expect this princess to be so outstanding, no wonder there is only one woman in the entire backyard, and I don't think I can look down on other women." ”
Zhao Yingying heard her mother say this, and she couldn't help but feel a little lost in her heart.
Ji Yanning looked at Zhao Yingying with interest, because she felt that this Zhao Yingying seemed to be very interested in Rong Che.
Tsk, this man is really easy to attract bees and butterflies.
"What's wrong?" Rong Che followed her gaze, but didn't find anything, snatched the fruit wine from her hand, and said, "There is not much fruit wine to drink, you can drink some soup." ”
Ji Yanning smiled: "Many girls below have been staring at you." ”
Rong Che reached out and wrapped his arms around her waist and whispered in her ear, "What's the matter, you're jealous?"
"Yes, what do you say you want to do?" Ji Yanning raised his eyebrows.
Rong Che looked innocent: "I didn't do anything." ”
"You didn't do anything to let so many girls look at you, it's interesting to you, if you really do something, then it's okay!" Ji Yanning said, "Do you want to take a side concubine for you, welcome a concubine or something?"
Rong Che smiled: "It's enough for you to have one in my palace, don't worry, I won't touch other women." ”
Seeing that he was so peaceful, Ji Yanning reached out and stuffed a fruit into his mouth: "A reward for you." ”
"Thank you, daughter-in-law. ”
Looking at their interaction, the people under the banquet had different thoughts.
Zhao Heng said: "The relationship between His Royal Highness and the princess is really good. ”
The people below began to praise the princess again.
Rong Che said: "Isn't husband and wife supposed to be loving? This king will only have a princess and a woman in this life, so he will naturally love her well." ”
The ladies who came to the banquet originally had different thoughts, but when they heard Rong Che's words, many people suddenly stopped thinking.
King Xuan has already made it so clear, it seems that there is no hope for other women.
Only Zhao Yingying stirred the handkerchief, not knowing what she was thinking.
The banquet dispersed, and everyone felt that the king and the princess seemed to get along well, but it was still unknown how, after all, it was the prince, who dared to test it easily, so they could only try their best to please them.
In the days that followed, there were always a lot of people delivering things to the door.
Except for meeting the shopkeeper of Baochang Ji, Ji Yanning rejected all other posts.
The other people couldn't figure out Princess Xuan's thoughts, and later learned that Princess Xuan was pregnant and needed to recuperate, so no one saw her.
Ji Yanning didn't know anyone in Xuanzhou, but she didn't find it boring.
She is not Yuan Jiaojiao's noisy personality that can't sit still.
Rong Che often accompanies her to walk around Xuanzhou City, after all, this place is different from Chang'an, and she can learn more about the local customs.
Although Ji Yanning is only two or three months pregnant, the house is already preparing things for the child.
In Xuanzhou City, the largest silk village is Baochang Ji, and Baochang Ji covers all the service expenses in the palace on weekdays, as well as all kinds of fabrics.
It's hard to come out, Ji Yanning naturally went to Baochang Ji to have a look.
The store of Po Cheong Kee is larger than other shops, and even has two floors, which looks quite patterned, but the price is very fair, some are expensive, and some are cheap, so there are many customers who come and go.
If you want to customize some good ready-to-wear clothes, you have to go up to the second floor, which can be cleaner, but many rich ladies and ladies like it.
Ji Yanning walked into Baochang Ji, but unexpectedly met a few ladies and young ladies who had taken pictures.
Because they had seen it at the reception banquet, someone recognized Rong Che and Ji Yanning at a glance.
A few ladies were about to step forward to salute, but Rong Che said, "There's no need to be polite outside." ”
Mrs. Zhao smiled, her eyes fell on Ji Yanning's body, she handed over several posts, but all of them were rejected, but looking at Ji Yanning's good look, it didn't look like she couldn't see outsiders, it seemed that she was not very willing to have a deep friendship with them.
She said: "I heard that the princess is pregnant, I originally wanted to take Yingying to visit, but the princess always seems to be free. ”
Ji Yanning smiled faintly: "I just like to be quiet after all." ”
"Yes, it is inevitable to be impetuous when you are pregnant, and sometimes it is better to be quiet. The other lady echoed with a smile.
Mrs. Zhao's smile was a little faint.
Zhao Yingying said: "Did the princess also come out to buy silk to make clothes?"
It's almost the time of the New Year, and everyone naturally wants to make more clothes.
Ji Yanning nodded.
"I think the princess has outstanding appearance, so naturally she needs Yunjin to be worthy of the status of the princess. Zhao Yingying said.
The others listened to Zhao Yingying's words and looked at each other.
Because just now they heard from the shopkeeper of this Baochang Ji that there are not many Yunjin in this store, and half of it was ordered by the people of the Zhao Mansion just now, and the remaining half was booked by other ladies and ladies, and now even if Ji Yanning wants to buy it, he may not be able to buy it.
I don't know if this Zhao Yingying did it on purpose.
Ji Yanning smiled indifferently and said, "I don't care. ”
She said this casually, but everyone looked at the clothes and fabrics on her body, and saw that although they were simple and simple, they were all extremely high-class and rare, but she was not a casual master.
While they were talking, the shopkeeper of Bao Chang Ji had already greeted him and saluted, "Lord, princess." ”
Ji Yanning bowed his head and said, "Your business here is not bad. ”
The shopkeeper smiled: "There is still a month before the New Year, so there are more people who come to order clothes, and there is a lot of business." ”
Ji Yanning nodded and said, "Is the stock enough?"
The shopkeeper said: "It's all a little more according to previous years, but the business is a little better, and it should be able to survive this year." ”
"Not bad. Ji Yanning expressed satisfaction.
The shopkeeper took Ji Yanning to check the store, told her about the business in the store over and over again, and left the ladies behind for a while.
Rong Che has been following Ji Yanning's side, but he didn't speak, if it weren't for his outstanding aura and extraordinary identity, he would be a bit like a guard.
Zhao Yingying frowned.
She heard that Princess Xuan was pregnant, and thought that she had a good chance to have a chance.
But I didn't expect King Xuan to protect Ji Yanning like this, and even carefully protect her when she went shopping, for fear that she would bump into it, which would make her feel sour.
If only such a man could belong to himself.
Seeing Ji Yanning talking to the shopkeeper, Rong Che was alone, and Zhao Yingying walked to Rong Che's side in a daze, her eyes moved slightly, and then she fell to Rong Che's side as if she had accidentally broken her foot.
Rong Che was expressionless, and then took a few steps back.
Zhao Yingying didn't expect Rong Che to dodge away, she was stunned at first, but she didn't expect that she really broke her foot and fell in front of Rong Che in embarrassment.
"It hurts. Zhao Yingying's eyes were inexplicably filled with tears.
The two maids of the Zhao family hurriedly helped her up: "Miss, are you okay?" ”
Zhao Yingying shook her head, and said to Rong Che again: "I'm sorry, Lord Wang, I didn't offend you, right?"
She said in a very thin and soft voice, like a little woman who had just been wronged but was pitiful and apologized like him, with tears in her eyes, pitiful and pitiful.
She is still very confident in her appearance, she is a well-known beauty in Xuanzhou City, although she may be a little worse than Ji Yanning, but the two of them have completely different paths, she knows that Ji Yanning has a cold temperament and is not easy to get along with, and it is King Xuan who is accommodating Ji Yanning.
She is different, men are protective, and when she meets a weak girl, she will always have more good feelings in her heart.
In Xuanzhou, many people have come to Zhao Mansion to ask for relatives, but she can't look down on her, and only people like King Xuan can match her.
Rong Che frowned slightly, his eyes a little cold.
He looked at Ji Yanning, who was still talking to the shopkeeper, and then asked, "Miss Zhao is like Meng Lang, seeing a man is like throwing herself into someone else's arms?"
His tone was a little disdainful, which shocked Zhao Yingying's heart.
"No, Lord Wang, you misunderstood, I really accidentally broke my foot. She explained, her voice tinged with tears, "I really didn't mean to. ”
This look makes people can't bear to blame.
Mrs. Zhao seemed to see her daughter talking to the prince, and she couldn't help but feel a little happy in her heart, if she could climb up to King Xuan, it would also be very good for them Zhao Mansion.
Rong Che raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh, Miss Zhao doesn't want to marry into the Xuan Palace?"
Hearing Rong Che's words, Zhao Yingying was a little stunned, but quickly reacted, bit her lip and said, "The princess will be unhappy, right?"
Rong Che said: "You just have to say whether you are willing to marry into the palace." ”
