Chapter 4: Treasure Cake Zhai
"Your Highness! Hurry up! Liang Qian wore a pale pink Luo skirt today, and the sleeves and skirts were embroidered with silver silk threads with some butterflies flying in the flowers, which looked lively and smart.
This set of clothes was a meeting gift from Princess Li to Liang Qian yesterday, and Liang Qian liked it very much.
"Where are we going today?" Li Yu walked into the carriage and sat next to Liang Qian, and what caught his eye was Liang Qian's excited appearance: "This morning, Scarlet Jade told me that there are many delicious pastries in Kyoto, and Qianqian wants to try them." Your Royal Highness, do you say it's good? β
"Good!" Li Yu gently stroked Liang Qian's hair, and his eyes were full of doting: "If you want to go, let's go and have a look!" β
Thinking that he could buy some pastries and put them on the carriage to eat, Li Yu immediately instructed the coachman to take the group to the largest pastry shop in Kyoto, Zibao Cake Zhai.
Hearing this, Liang Qian, who was sitting in the carriage, and Scarlet Jade and Fei Xue, who were sitting outside the carriage, were very happy.
Li Wangfu is on East Street, Bao Bao Zhai is on West Street, it took a lot of time for the carriage to walk over, and when the group arrived at Bao Bao Zhai, there were already a lot of people gathered in Bao Bao Zhai.
Liang Qian is actually a lively personality inside, after being carried out of the carriage by Li Yu himself, he looked at the various pastries in the pastry shop, and suddenly opened happily.
"Hello Shiziye!" The shopkeeper of Bao Bao Zhai is also a transparent person, and when the carriage of King Li's Mansion stopped at the door of Bao Bao Zhai, he received the news and took the initiative to greet him: "Come here today, but you want to buy some pastries she likes for the princess?" There are a lot of new goods in our shop these days, and the world can take a look, and if you like it, you can send someone to send it to your house! β
Li Yu raised his eyes to look at Liang Qian, and found that Liang Qian was standing next to the cabinet and looking at the pastries inside. Li Yu looked at Liang Qian and Fei Xue next to him, the appearance of the scarlet jade whispering, his eyes were slightly dark, and he shouted softly: "Shallow, don't you want to see pastries?" Come to His Royal Highness the Prince and let the shopkeeper introduce you! β
"Good!" Liang Qian responded obediently and skillfully, decisively abandoned Fei Xue and Scarlet Jade, who were whispering together, and ran to Li Yu to stand beside him.
The shopkeeper now understands that Li Yu came over today to bring the woman in front of him to come and see, even if he doesn't know Liang Qian's identity, he also does his best to take care of it, and carefully recommends all kinds of pastries in the store for Liang Qian.
Li Yu stood aside and looked at Liang Qian.
There are a lot of small expressions on Liang Qian's face, which is very interesting in Li Yu's opinion.
"Why is the prince in the mood to come to this place today?"
Li Yu stared at Liang Qian, but he didn't notice the new people in the store. When he heard the voice and turned around, he saw the third prince Cheng Haochen standing not far away.
Towards Cheng Haochen's lukewarm salute, Li Yu looked calm: "There are children at home, accompany the children to come and shop." However, the prince has rarely gone out since the establishment of the mansion, how can he be in the mood to come to this treasure cake restaurant today? β
"I just saw your carriage coming here, so I came!" The third prince Cheng Haochen, that is, His Royal Highness the current King Chen, smiled indifferently, but his eyes were always on Liang Qian, who was talking to the shopkeeper: "This is the new child in your family?" It's so beautiful, and it looks like it's easy to bully, no wonder it can get into your eyes! β
"After leaving the palace and building a mansion, you guy is getting more and more out of tune!" Li Yu glanced at Cheng Haochen with a serious expression, and his eyes were full of disapproval: "What you have done in Jingdong these days is really arrogant, and you are really not afraid that those officials will visit you in the emperor tomorrow!" β
Cheng Haochen pursed his lips, but didn't continue to say anything, only said: "I really came to you today, I have something important to talk to you, let's go to the carriage and talk!" β
Li Yu sighed, he knew that Cheng Haochen would not come to him for no reason. Turning his head and explaining the situation to Liang Qian briefly, he told Fei Xue and Scarlet Jade to take care of Liang Qian before slowly following Cheng Haochen out.
"What the hell is this? What is the shopkeeper of this treasure cake restaurant doing? β
Not long after Li Yu and Cheng Haochen went out, an arrogant female voice came out from the second floor of Bao Bao Zhai: "The two of us have been waiting for him there for so long, and no one has been saying that he is busy, how busy can it be?" Is it that the young lady of our Yi family is not worthy of being entertained by him? How dare you snub us like this! Second sister, the next time you see His Royal Highness the Prince, you have to talk to him well! Your fiancΓ©e of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been treated like this in this treasure cake restaurant, and those who don't know think that people despise His Royal Highness the Prince! β
Every word of the other party's words involved the Yi family, and it was difficult for Liang Qian not to notice it, so he suddenly looked in the direction of the voice.
On the stairs on the second floor, Yi Pingting and Yi Yingying went downstairs together.
Yi Pingting has been busy pretending to be a little white flower in front of the rest of the Yi family these days to please others. I went out today because Xu Sujie, that is, Yi Pingting's nominal mother, likes to eat cakes from Bao Cake Zhai, so she specially took Yi Yingying here to buy pastries and borrow flowers to offer Buddha.
Yi Pingting prides herself on her identity, and every time she comes to Bao Cake Zhai, the shopkeeper personally introduces her to hospitality. This time it was also her bad luck, not long after she went upstairs, Li Yu came over with Liang Qian. Because of Li Yu's identity, the shopkeeper took care of Liang Qian's side as soon as possible, and only sent two subordinates to greet Yi Pingting and Yi Yingying, which offended Yi Pingting at once.
Yi Pingting is a clever person, and she is used to pretending to be pitiful. In her heart, she felt that the shopkeeper despised herself, and she would not say it directly if she didn't put herself in her eyes. Yi Pingting provoked Yi Yingying a few words in the room on the second floor, and asked Yi Yingying, a straightforward and fast-talking person who can't speak well, to say what she wanted to say for herself.
"Second sister, if you want me to say that you have a really good temper! Yesterday, I actually went to the gate of the house to wait for that mud leg in the countryside! Yi Yingying was provoked by Yi Pingting to be angry, and when she saw that the second sister, who was particularly "gentle" to herself on weekdays, was despised, the anger in her heart was called exuberant: "What is the result? People don't accept your love at all, and I didn't see her go to the house when I came yesterday! β
"That's it! Don't talk about people like that, after all, they are your biological sister, maybe they didn't return to the house yesterday, that is, they don't want to see me. Yi Pingting pretended to be weak and wiped her tears on the surface, but what she said added fuel to the fire: "Don't say that I am the fiancΓ©e of His Royal Highness the Prince, the real lady is back, where is my status as a fake lady?" Isn't that the same today? In the past, when I came to this store, the shopkeeper would come to receive me in person. Now that other people in Kyoto don't want to deal with me, it's just that the wall is falling down and everyone is pushing it! β
"She dares!" Yi Yingying was really provoked by Yi Pingting, and her tone was even worse: "My biological sister, she is also worthy?" It's just a mud leg who grew up in the countryside, and he doesn't know how to read! Second sister, don't worry, in my heart, this position of the second sister will always be yours! She's back, if she dares to bully you, you tell me directly. The two of us are sisters who grew up together, what is she? I haven't even gone home yet, so I dare to throw my face at you, and I don't think it's a good thing! Don't worry, my brother, my father, and my mother will definitely be on your side! β
