Chapter 158: The Great Prince's Heart, Slimming Waist Lake Flower Club
Just as the servants surrounded Chonglou and were about to capture her, the burly and tall prince suddenly said, "Slow."
Then he strode forward, walked in front of the servants, and looked down at the heavy building despite their obstruction.
The eyes that have always been majestic and domineering are as gentle as the water of the thin waist lake, and the thin lips are gently raised, and he said gently: "My surname is Xiang, my name is Xiujie, dare to ask the girl's name?"
He was wearing a long black gold-inlaid robe at this time, and his whole person exuded a certain dignity that could not be disguised from the inside out. It's just a simple sentence, but under normal circumstances, it is enough to make many women fall.
Even Chonglou, in front of his domineering appearance but such soft words, his expression appeared for a moment.
The second prince lowered his head, covered his mouth with a golden silk handkerchief in his hand, and coughed softly.
Beside him, Concubine De, who was dressed in a low-key plain dress but still did not lose her luxurious and graceful temperament, looked at her son's back, and then looked at Chonglou's figure and appearance, and felt a little satisfied.
If it is an ordinary woman, the current scene of being caught stealing food must be quite ugly, but Chonglou is extremely beautiful, and the embarrassing scene at this time highlights her agility and cuteness.
She blinked, looked at the eldest prince in front of her, swallowed the fragrant chicken in her mouth, and said, "Just call me Xiaolou."
"Xiaolou listened to the spring rain overnight, and sold apricot blossoms in the Ming Dynasty in the deep alleys." The eldest prince's son, Xiang Xiujie, stared at Chonglou with bright eyes, whispered a poem, and sighed, "Very beautiful poems, very beautiful people."
"Someone."
He glanced back at the big shopkeeper and said lightly, "Arrange the best guest room for the girl in Xiaolou, be quiet. In addition, all the requirements of the little building girl are the requirements of this king, and you must fulfill them all."
"If there is negligence, it will be severely punished."
At this point, even a fool understands what the eldest prince means.
The eldest prince has taken a fancy to this female thief!
The big shopkeeper hurriedly responded to the request of the eldest prince, but in his heart he was thinking that such a female thief, even if she was born extremely good-looking, wouldn't she be unworthy of the princess if she really became the princess of the eldest prince?
This is where he can't guess the thoughts of a superior like the eldest prince, if the eldest prince takes a fancy to anyone, even if he is a beggar, can't he still teach her royal etiquette and manners?
However, there is one thing that the big shopkeeper is still very clear, if the female thief can really step into the palace of the prince, even if it is a side concubine, then his Helai Inn is also the place where the two meet, and in the future, the eldest prince will ascend the throne, and the Helai Inn will not be the next slim waist lake?
Such a favor can bless future generations!
Therefore, the big shopkeeper has no reason to refuse at all, and when he arranges for a heavy building to live in the Tianzi upper room, the room is next to the left side of the eldest prince's room.
Concubine De's room is on the right side of the eldest prince, and on the right is the room of the second prince.
"Ahem......
Concubine De suddenly held the arm of the maid beside her, her face turned pale, and she covered her lips and coughed twice, as if she was dizzy and about to fall.
"Mother!"
Xiang Xiujie's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly turned around to support Concubine De, and said in a solemn tone: "Send the concubine back to the room to rest."
Then his eyes fell on Chonglou again, he pondered for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Xiaolou girl, don't be strange, the mother concubine is in poor health, this king needs to take care of it first, and then come to disturb the girl when he is free."
Saying that, he no longer hesitated, supported Concubine De, who was covered with cold sweat, and quickly walked into the escalator in the inn to go to the room.
The second prince waited for the next round of elevators with the other servants, and suddenly, he turned his head, and his two narrow and slightly faint eyebrows like flying knives were lightly raised, and he glanced at Chonglou.
Chonglou nibbled on the last chicken leg in his hand and didn't care.
This night, it really rained in Suling County.
In this way, the Crane Inn, three members of the royal family with high status lived, plus a female thief of unknown origin, but who was obviously about to rise to prominence.
If this is just the case, of course the little two people of the Helai Inn will not complain as mentioned earlier.
Except for the basic three meals a day, the three members of the royal family hardly had anything to trouble them, but the female thief named Xiaolou had to call Xiao Er almost every quarter of an hour!
It's not that you want to eat when you're hungry, or you want to drink when you're thirsty, or your pillow is high or low, or you just have nothing to do to find Xiao Er to chat, talk about the customs of Suling County, and talk about what handsome guys are in the county recently.
It's only been one night, and four or five juniors have been tossed by her so much that they haven't closed their eyes.
Under normal circumstances, if you can chat with an eye-catching woman like Chonglou, the little two will not feel tired when they squeeze their heads, but the problem is that this Xiaolou girl is the person that the eldest prince has a crush on, who gave them the courage to dare to get too close to Chonglou?
Just when Jiang Chou passed by the door of the Helai Inn again after rescuing He Duyu, Xiang Xiujie also walked out of the door, stood in front of the room in the heavy building, and after a rare moment of hesitation, he reached out and knocked lightly on the door.
"Little Lou girl, are you there?"
Inside the house, Chonglou had already guessed the identity of the other party from the words and deeds of Xiang Xiujie and his party.
The great prince of Huangguo, this is to some extent more noble than her, the daughter of the Demon Venerable, after all, there are several Demon Venerables in the entire world, but there is only one Emperor of the Huang Kingdom.
Regarding the intersection with Xiang Xiujie, Chonglou didn't have much resistance, but just warned himself that he must be careful not to expose the identity of the demon clan, and no one knows what kind of attitude this Xiang clan prince has towards the relationship between humans and demons.
"However, this Terran prince seems to be okay." Chonglou held a silver spoon in his hand, stirring the sticky black chicken soup in front of him, and supported his head with the other hand, thinking a little boredly.
At this time, she heard the knock of the eldest prince at the door.
didn't think much about it, and said directly, "I'm eating, do you want to come along?"
The eldest prince pushed the door and walked in.
The cluster of flowers held in her left hand immediately grabbed Chonglou's eyes, and she involuntarily lowered the two long legs coiled on the chair.
Seeing this, Xiang Xiujie raised the bouquet in his hand seemingly casually and handed it to Chonglou.
The petals are as white as snow, and there seem to be round and crystalline water droplets on them, and the stamens are a little pink, and the fragrance comes to the face.
Chonglou blinked, looked up at Xiang Xiujie, and his dark eyes reflected snow-white petals.
Xiang Xiujie's heart shook fiercely, but his face was very gentle and said, "Miss Xiaolou, since it really rained overnight last night as said in that poem, how can this king allow the lack of apricot blossoms today?"
Chonglou glanced at Xiang Xiujie, pointed at the apricot blossom in front of him with the silver spoon in his hand, and asked, "Give it to me?"
"Naturally, it's for Miss Xiaolou, is there anyone else here who deserves it?" Xiang Xiujie said with a smile.
He believes that whether it is a woman, a ghost, a banshee, or a demon, she is born with a good impression of beautiful things.
Sure enough, Chonglou didn't refuse, took it and sniffed it, put it on the table, and said, "Oh thank you, it's beautiful."
Outside the door, the two black-clothed men looked at each other, a little helpless, and wanted to complain.
Hehe, can it not be good-looking?
Although it is not difficult to find apricot blossoms in Suling County, it is not easy to find one that perfectly meets the requirements of the eldest prince, and the color, aroma, shape, and even the length and thickness of the branches.
There were only nine of these apricot blossoms, but they had found them by running around the county with broken legs.
Just buying and eliminating apricot blossoms may be able to support a medium-sized winery to make apricot blossom wine in one quarter.
The servants glanced at each other, thinking that the eldest prince was the future monarch of the Huang Kingdom, even if he really fell in love with this Xiaolou girl, would he need to be so attentive?
In their eyes, there is no woman in this world who would refuse to marry the eldest prince.
Not to mention this bouquet of the most precious apricot blossoms in the entire Suling County.
The little building girl has definitely fallen.
"But I don't understand what kind of poem you're talking about."
So when they heard the second sentence of the little girl in the house, the expression on their faces suddenly became extremely exciting.
What does that mean?
This seems to be just saying that she doesn't understand poetry, which is understandable in itself, but is that really what she meant?
Those who can be the personal servants of the great prince are not illiterate pure martial artists, and it is inevitable that they will think more.
If they are still like this, how could Xiang Xiujie not think of it?
Xiang Xiujie looked at Chonglou, who was sitting opposite, tilting his head slightly, and was sipping soup lightly with his eyes down, looking at the indifferent alienation and vague wildness and dryness in her eyes, pursed his lips, smiled slightly, and didn't care too much.
He is the prince of Huangguo, the most noble person above 10,000 people under one person in Huangguo, what kind of woman has he never seen?
But no matter what kind of woman she is, she is as docile as a sheep in front of him, only Chonglou is different.
When I met her in the lobby last night, the light in her dark eyes, coupled with her cheeks that kept chewing, looked like the most dexterous rabbit on the prairie.
And now, Chonglou is just sitting there drinking soup, the indifference in his eyes and the wildness that can't be hidden in his demeanor are like a little wolf.
Scratching the ground, Xiang Xiujie was itching in his heart, and he wanted to figure out what she was.
"Where is Miss Xiaolou from Huangguo?" He sat down across from the heavy building and asked with a smile.
Chonglou didn't think about it, and said, "People from Qinghe County."
"It turns out that the girl in Xiaolou is from Suling." Xiang Xiujie showed a hint of abruptness.
A series of information about Qinghe County, Suling County, had flashed in his mind, and he didn't expect that a small county town would raise such an unworldly woman...... The county order of Qinghe County seems to be called Pei Qian, right? I don't have the impression that my ability is outstanding.
"Are you the prince of the Huang Kingdom?" Chonglou put down the bowl after drinking the soup, leaned out a tender red tip of his tongue and licked his lips, glanced at Xiang Xiujie and asked.
Xiang Xiujie was slightly silent.
No one had ever asked him this question so directly, and if they had known who he was, they would have either not guessed it at all, or would not have dared to ask it.
There are very few things that are so direct as Chonglou.
Xiang Xiujie's right arm rested on the edge of the table, his fingers twisted slightly, looked into Chonglou's eyes, and said, "It's this king. This king's surname is Xiang, his name is Xiujie, if it is a girl from Xiaolou, it is good to call me Xiujie."
Whether it is the identity of the prince or the title of the king, he is extremely noble, and the only people in this world who can call him with the word "Xiujie" are probably only Concubine De and Emperor Huangjing.
He said this to Chonglou, and the meaning of it goes without saying.
However, when Chonglou heard this, he just supported his chin with one hand, turned his head to look out the window, leaving only Xiang Xiujie with an incomparably delicate side face, and said casually perfunctorily: "Oh."
Obviously, the question was asked by her, but she didn't seem to care about the answer.
Xiang Xiujie couldn't figure out what she was thinking.
At any time in the past, when he identified himself, everyone present would immediately become respectful, and there would be a burst of flattery, although he was not obsessed with that feeling, but he was used to it, and Chonglou's reaction made him a little unsure of what to say.
After a moment of silence, Xiang Xiujie clenched his fists lightly, looked at Chonglou again and asked, "I wonder if Miss Xiaolou has heard of the annual Slimming Lake Flower Festival in Suling County?"
Chonglou didn't even look back at him, just shook his head listlessly.
"Brother, where are you?" She muttered softly.
"What did you say, Miss Xiaolou?" Xiang Xiujie didn't hear clearly and asked.
"Nothing." Chonglou said, "What did you just say about the flower meeting?"
"Skinny Lake Flower Club, just half a moon later." Xiang Xiujie said gently, "This is the grandest flower festival in Suling County every spring, and the talented and beautiful people of the entire Suling County will go there, which is quite lively."
"Oh." Chonglou answered, looking uninterested.
Xiang Xiujie asked, "I wonder if Miss Xiaolou would like to go with her face?"
Chonglou didn't have any ideas, so he replied casually, "If it's okay, I'll go and have a look."
Xiang Xiujie was in a happy mood, and immediately got up, his right hand behind him couldn't help clenching hard, his palms were sweaty, and he said with a smile: "Then the king will come to pick up the girl again!"
He knew that today's purpose had been achieved, and staying here for a long time might cause Chonglou to be disgusted, so he turned around and walked to the door, and then turned back and said, "Before the flower party, I also asked Miss Xiaolou to rest here for the time being, and if you have any requests, just speak. If you want to go out, the king will accompany you at any time."
"I have a request right now." Chonglou suddenly turned around and said.
Xiang Xiujie was stunned for a moment and asked, "Miss Xiaolou just said."
"Give me a set of pen and paper, I want to write a letter and send it back to Qinghe County, so that my family can come to see the flower party together." Chonglou looked straight at Xiang Xiujie and said.
Xiang Xiujie nodded when he heard this and said, "It should be, it's the king's negligence."
When even arranging for the door to prepare a good pen, ink, paper and inkstone, he bowed slightly to Chonglou and turned to leave.
When Xiang Xiujie's figure disappeared, Chonglou sat back in his chair and pursed his lips, a hint of hope flashed in his eyes.
The other party is the eldest prince, she doesn't dare to blatantly say that she wants to go back to Qinghe County, what if a Xiujie says that he will send someone to send her back, or even send it in person?
Xiang Xiujie is not comparable to Tianhe Xuan, even Tian Baohe has to bow his head when he sees Xiang Xiujie, if such a character arrives in Xiaoqingguan, no one knows whether it is a blessing or a curse.
What's more, his identity is sensitive, so it's better not to touch his brow or not to touch his brow.
If Jiang Chou could be notified by letter and asked to pick him up, then there would be no problem.
Of course, if Xiang Xiujie wanted her to be as well-behaved and clever as a quail, then Chonglou could only throw off a pair of white eyes.
Demons will never be slaves!
Chonglou was thinking about it, and suddenly felt that someone was watching him.
The rooms in the heavy building are leaning on the elevator.
The door was open.
She looked up and saw the second prince who was being pushed in a wheelchair pass by her door.
The second prince tilted his head slightly and looked at her.
Chonglou didn't speak, nor did he stand up, but quietly looked at the second prince with a somewhat uninhibited and cold gaze.
Soon, the wheelchair was pushed over, and the second prince bowed slightly to her, and the knuckles on the precious blanket were distinct.
The two didn't say a word.
"Guest officer, you don't even know about the Slim Waist Lake Flower Club? I'll have to talk to you, little one."
The county town of Suling County is roughly divided into four districts, east, west, north and south, and the Helai Inn is located in the North District, at this time, in a streetside teahouse three streets away from the Helai Inn, there is a young Taoist priest sitting in front of the Eight Immortals table in the innermost place.
The young Taoist priest didn't enter the museum for too long, only about a stick of incense, but in this short stick of incense, the teahouse with few people was already full of people.
There were eight people at each table, and there was no empty seat except for the table where the young Taoist priest was.
And in the past, most of the people who came here to rest and drink tea were men doing manual work, but at this moment, most of the more than a dozen tables were women!
Although the status of women in Huangguo has gradually risen in recent years, there are still not many women who come to this kind of open-air teahouse to drink tea.
Unbelief?
At this glance, although they were sitting, how could the tea in front of them be half reduced? Their eyes are not on the tea at all!
Where is it?
On the young Taoist!
Even in a county town like Suling County, which gathers talented and beautiful women all year round, there has never been such a handsome man.
Therefore, even if the young Taoist priest only ordered the most meager cup of white tea, the teahouse junior would not like him to stay here for a whole day!
The young Taoist priest is naturally Jiang Chou.
Although he was concerned about Chonglou, Jiang Chou also knew that if he only relied on himself to ask all over the street, the chance was too slim.
On the contrary, the inn teahouse is the place with the fastest and most information circulation, and there may be surprises.
So he found a teahouse and sat down, ready to drink some tea, and find a suitable reason to ask Xiao Er a few questions.
As a result, as soon as he took two sips of tea, Jiang Chou found that there were people around him, and Xiao Er also ran over with enthusiasm and took the initiative to ask, "Guest officer, are you also here to participate in the Slimming Lake Flower Fair?"
Skinny Waist Lake Flower Meeting? Jiang Chou had never heard of it at all.
But since Xiao Er said it, he asked curiously what the skinny waist lake flower would be.
Hearing that Jiang Chou hadn't heard of the Slim Waist Lake Flower Club, Xiao Er was a little surprised, but he was also more energetic, and the rag was quickly put on his shoulder, "Hey", and began to talk eloquently.
It turns out that the Slim Waist Lake Flower Festival is also an event that has just emerged in Suling County in the past ten years.
Because ten years ago, the eldest prince's mother was officially promoted from Concubine De to Concubine De.
The position of the concubine is second only to the queen, and everyone knows that today's Huang Kingdom has not had a real queen for more than 30 years since the death of the first queen.
The concubine is the most honorable reward.
As the place where Emperor Huangjing and Concubine De first met, the first flower party was held at that time, spreading the flowers of the whole city along the entire thin waist lake, and inviting the oirans of the top ten green buildings in the city to perform on the same stage to determine the first oiran of the entire Suling County!
The flower festival was a great success once it was held, which not only meant beauty, but also led to the development of surrounding industries. qs
So since ten years ago, every year in April when the spring flowers are blooming, Suling County will hold a thin waist lake flower party.
This year marks the 10th anniversary, and the scale is even bigger than ever!
Not only Suling County, but also some surrounding counties, and even Guyang City, where the capital of Guyangzhou is located, have many big names present.
"Hey, guest officer, I heard that, because this is the tenth anniversary, the palace is quite concerned about this matter." Xiao Er lowered his voice and said to Jiang Chou, "Maybe, Concubine De will come to see it, after all, the flower party is to commemorate her encounter with His Majesty......
"If Concubine De comes, the eldest prince may also come, tsk...... If you want to be able to see your future majesty with your own eyes, little me, some of them have blown it!"
"Ouch! Look at my eyes, the water in the guest officer's teapot is empty, please wait a moment, the small one will go and refill the pot."
As he spoke, Xiao Er walked quickly to the back kitchen with a teapot.
Jiang Chou didn't say anything, in Xiao Er's chatter, he more or less understood the current composition of the Xiang clan's royal family.
It has been fifty-three years since Emperor Huangjing ascended the throne, and it has been forty years since Concubine De entered the palace.
Before Concubine De entered the palace, Emperor Huangjing did not have a son, only two princesses, and as for the queen who had been dead for many years, she did not have a single heir.
The son of Concubine Degui Niangniang was the first son of Emperor Huangjing, and he was made the crown prince when he was born. Later, Emperor Huangjing and another concubine gave birth to the second prince, but the concubine died in childbirth, and the second prince was disabled in both legs.
After that, Emperor Huangjing gave birth to three princesses, but there were no sons.
And the relationship between the eldest prince and the second prince is very good, maybe the bloody matter of seizing the heir will not happen, and Emperor Huangjing has decided not to have any more children.
If this is the case, it can be seen to the naked eye that the powerful rule of the Huang Kingdom can at least continue to the next generation.
It's a pity that these people have nothing to do with Chonglou, and these messages can't help him find Chonglou.
You can only have fun.
Jiang Chou shook his head.
"Old Li Tou, come to two pots of good spring!"
Suddenly, an arrogant voice came from outside the teahouse, and a group of seventeen or eighteen-year-old boys and girls walked sideways from the street.
There were about seven or eight people, two men and one woman walking in the middle were brightly dressed and had a cold temperament, and the young man led by him had wanton eyes and pride.
On the left chest of the robes of the three people, there is a white crane dancing in the painting, which is the door emblem of Tianhe Xuan.
The one who spoke was a bear-like young man with a big shoulder and a round waist next to the three of them, with a grass tail in his mouth, and he stretched out his hand and pointed at the face of the teahouse owner from a distance and shouted.
"Ouch...... It's Liang Shao, it's really unfortunate, the location in the teahouse today ...... The teahouse owner, who ......was over half a hundred years old and as thin as wood, hurriedly walked out, nodded his head, and wiped his cold sweat.
"Full?" The bear-like boy called Liang Shao rolled his round eyes, and found that he didn't know what kind of wind was pumping in this teahouse today, and it seemed that there was really no vacancy.
He frowned, scolded in a low voice, "It's really unlucky", and prepared to take the three behind him to other teahouses.
At this moment, the man in the lead of the two men and one woman smiled slightly, raised his pointed chin slightly towards a certain place in the teahouse, and said rather casually, "Look, isn't there a place there?"
