Chapter 34: A Night Tour in Kyoto
In the end, it was Wang Taifu who compromised, and An Ruo, who was afraid of long nights and dreams, wrote a letter to Wei Yan in handwriting, and the holy decree of marriage was set three days later.
The reason is very sufficient, in order for Concubine Ding to be able to watch the ceremony on the spot, which made the Manchu Dynasty civil and military once again sigh at Concubine Ding's honor.
That night, An Ruo took Xiao Zhan to sit on the gazebo, watching the waves of aunts entering and leaving the courtyard of the main house, raising his eyebrows and sighing: "Xiao Zhan, do you say that my father is not very good, otherwise how could so many aunts enter and exit so quickly!" ”
Xiao Zhan twitched the corners of his mouth, consciously compared the time Wei Yan had been in the bath, and looked at An Ruo's eyes full of sympathy.
Niangniang is saying that the emperor can't do it, no wonder there is only one prince in the harem, and there is only one child in the Taifu Mansion, it turns out that the emperor and the Taifu are really suitable for monarchs and ministers.
"Don't worry, Niangniang, I heard Gonggong Yan say that the emperor has been making supplements recently."
Emperor? An Ruo's eyes were puzzled, he was obviously talking about Mrs. Wang, what does it have to do with the emperor? And tonic? Could it be that the modeled Wei Yan NPC can't work?
Hey, Wei Yan can't do it in reality, so during the hospitalization, he refused to let himself help scrub, and even refused to let himself help him go to the bathroom.
An Ruo felt that he had seen through some kind of truth, and secretly felt sorry for himself, but sure enough, God was fair, and gave Wei Yan such a face of anger and anger, a body that everyone coveted, but he didn't put on his third leg.
An Ruo and Xiao Zhan each had their own ghosts, until Fang Ce's arrival broke the silence.
An Ruo's face was overjoyed, Fang Ce really came; Xiao Zhan's face collapsed, no wonder Niangniang was looking forward to seeing Prince Xian, it turned out that the emperor really couldn't do it.
"When I first came up, I was thinking, I don't know if I can meet Ruoruo today, but I don't want you and me to be really smart."
After listening to Fang Ce's words, An Ruo smiled knowingly, and pretended to be angry and asked, "Listen to Xiao Zhan, you left alone yesterday, leaving me drunk and staying in this pavilion alone, is there such a thing?" ”
"It turned out that he was waiting for me here for the sake of Xingshi's questioning, but Fang Mou was sentimental. However, if I really misunderstood me, the lonely man and widow were afraid of attracting tongues even in this empty pavilion, so before Xiao Zhan came, I retreated to the side, and I did not leave the house until Xiao Zhan took you back to the room and made sure that you were sleeping peacefully. ”
An Ruo desperately pressed the corners of his mouth that wanted to be raised, and after a long time, he whispered: "It's not for Xingshi to ask for guilt." ”
There was silence in the pavilion, Fang Ce obviously heard An Ruo's words clearly, and his smile deepened a little: "Yesterday Lao Ruoruo entertained, today why don't I make the east, take Ruoruo to taste the food of Kyoto Qionglou." ”
Joan Lou? It turned out that she could still go outside the Taifu Mansion and taste all the delicacies that Fang Ce said?
Xiao Zhan saw An Ruo's impatience, and couldn't help reminding: "Niangniang, I'm just afraid of inconvenience." ”
An Ruo was a little frustrated when he heard this, but he was more to observe Fang Ce's face, and he didn't know how Fang Ce would react if he knew that he was the emperor's concubine.
"It won't be inconvenient."
Before An Ruo could open his mouth to refuse, Fang Ce put the mask he had prepared long ago on An Ruo's face, and looked at Xiao Zhan with a warning in his gaze.
Seeing that Fang Ce didn't mind the identity of his concubine, An Ruo couldn't express his indescribable joy and sourness, and looked at Xiao Zhan and asked, "Just go out for a while, can you help me cover up one or two?" ”
Fang Ce said: "Just say that your young lady is resting, don't disturb it." ”
Seeing that Xiao Zhan finally bowed his head in agreement, An Ruo jumped up happily and was led out by Fang Ce.
Kyoto's night is bustling and lively, with bright lights and daylight, and a constant stream of pedestrians singing and dancing.
An Ruo was puzzled: "It's not that the imperial court has experienced two years of chaos and is still in the stage of recuperation, why is it so lively in Kyoto?" ”
"Now that Mobei has ceased war, and the emperor has good ability, the natural economy has recovered very quickly. Of course, even in those two years of hard life, the nobles of Kyoto still lived a chic and comfortable life, and only the people at the bottom and the border people who suffered from the war were suffering. ”
"Mobei truce? Mobei was fighting before, did you go to Mobei to fight? ”
An Ruo's round eyes were extremely cute, Fang Ce restrained his urge to pinch his face, and nodded and acquiesced to An Ruo's words.
It turned out that the game world map was so huge, and An Ruo thought that the game company would limit the game to Kyoto in order to save costs. Sure enough, she underestimated the strength of the game company, after all, it is known as the number one game in the league, and the game territory may be bigger than she imagined.
An Ruo didn't continue to inquire about what Fang Ce had done in Mobei, just like he knew that he was a harem concubine, and he didn't ask too much, so the just right distance and sense of boundary made her feel very relieved and comfortable.
The two of them stopped and stopped all the way, An Ruo saw everything very strangely, and he also wanted to buy that, especially with a humanoid payment machine behind him, the feeling of shopping should not be too pleasant.
"I was in too much of a hurry to go out and didn't bring any money, so I paid in advance with Lao Ace, and when I returned to Taifu's mansion, I asked Xiao Zhan to settle the bill for you."
Referring to the silver, Fang Ce smiled and said: "That's not necessary, after all, someone paid enough yesterday, and I didn't provide other services, so it is appropriate to pay for shopping with you." ”
Yesterday? Some pictures flashed sporadically in An Ruo's mind, as if he had pestered Fang Ce, and wanted to accompany him to the next step of service after drinking?
Hey, she's really drunk, how dare she think of anything!
An Ruo smiled awkwardly, and no longer had the intention of shopping along the street, and went straight to Qionglou with Fang Ce.
Turning left and right, the two came to the alley at the back door of Qionglou, only to see Fang Ce knock on the door, and showed a waist card to Xiao Er who opened the door, and the two were respectfully invited to the box on the top floor.
"How did you bring me in through the back door?"
"Entering the Qiong Building from the main entrance, I'm afraid the masks of the two of us will have to be taken off. The people who come and go to Qionglou are all dignitaries, if you don't forget your identity, right? ”
Eh, the concubine went back to her parents' house to save her relatives, she also went out to have a private meeting with a man in the middle of the night, it didn't sound right, An Ruo had the illusion of cuckolding Wei Yan in hindsight.
Bah! She didn't do anything, and it was normal for her to travel with a friend or two.
The dishes of Qionglou are indeed outstanding, different from the original taste of the imperial dining room's preferences, the appearance and taste of Qionglou's dishes are indeed unique, which makes An Ruo have an urge to abduct people into the palace as imperial chefs.
"Qionglou has three uniques, one is in the dishes, if you have tasted it, the second must be in the scenery."
Fang Ce said, pushed open the window of the box, An Ruo leaned over, only to find that the Qiong Tower was really high, and the entire Kyoto scenery was in full view, and even the imperial palace was in front of him.
An Ruo felt that she might have been brainwashed, and her first reaction was not how beautiful the scenery was, but if she could build a telescope, she was afraid that the movements of all the masters in Kyoto and even all the masters of the palace would be under control.
Does Wei Yan, the emperor, know about the existence of this place? Alertness is too low.
Suppressing his thoughts, An Ruo asked curiously, "What about the third absolute one?" ”
"The third absolute thing in Qionglou is people, there are the most beautiful dancing girls, the best piano masters, and even the best strategists. Of course, the guests who come and go are also a must, after all, from today on, Qionglou is the only restaurant in Kyoto that receives concubines. ”
An Ruo sneered: "It's a pity that this concubine can't see anyone, Qiong Lou wasted such a good publicity opportunity in vain." ”
