The regent's spoiled princess wakes up

Chapter 49 Yongchang Marquis Mansion

Chapter 49 Yongchang Marquis Mansion ([-])

It seems to be Bing Ji's voice.

Bing Ji couldn't enter Hanguang Pavilion, so she could only shout outside the courtyard gate.

Oops!

I forgot that today is the day for banquets in the Marquis of Yongchang's mansion. I heard that Marquis Yongchang sent red wedding invitations to all the wealthy embroidered households in Shangjing, saying that they wanted to be engaged.How could Zhao Shuang miss such an important day?

She got up quickly, took a set of men's clothes from the cabinet, sat down in front of the dressing table and began to comb the man's hair.

"Xiang Xia, go and tell Bing Ji to stop shouting, I'll be fine soon!" She ordered toward the door.

Xiang Xia answered "Yes", then hurriedly ran towards the gate of the courtyard.

Not long after, a young man in a black coarse cloth gown sneaked out of the door of Hanguang Pavilion, holding a xylophone wrapped in blue cloth in his hand.

"Princess, you finally came out! I'm afraid I'll miss the hour." Bing Ji was dressed in a light pink dress, and she was charmingly dressed.

Zhao Shuang took a look at her and nodded with satisfaction, "Don't worry, I have a measure."

Isn't it just to disturb an engagement dinner, it doesn't take much at all.

The two went out and got into the carriage. Zhao Shuang lowered his head and plucked the piano twice to test the sound.

When she was in the mountains before, she learned how to play the piano, but she always played it alone, and no one gave her advice, so she didn't know if she could play the piano well or not.

"Princess, I heard that Marquis Yongchang is hosting a banquet today with respectable figures in the capital, we...wouldn't cause any trouble?" Bing Ji looked at her uneasy and said hesitantly, "The prince is not in the capital now, if We got into trouble, but no one cleaned it up for us..."

"What are you afraid of? When did I ask him to clean up?" Zhao Shuang was very unhappy when he heard Bing Ji's words, and then patted his chest and said, "Don't worry! I am the eldest princess. What's the matter, I Carrying it for you."

Today, she glued a few strands of short hair around her mouth to act as a beard. When she spoke, the beard trembled slightly, which was quite masculine.

Bing Ji looked at her suspiciously.It's true that the princess is the eldest princess, but those nobles in the capital only respect the regent, and they don't have the royal family of the Great Zhou in their hearts.

She didn't dare to say this, she could only secretly pray for everything to go well.

Lamp time.

There are a few big red lanterns hanging in front of the gate of Yongchanghou Mansion, and two servants are welcoming guests in front of the gate.

The two handed over the greeting card and entered the Yongchang Marquis Mansion without much ado.

This is a newly purchased yard, with not many houses and not too large an area. There is a well in the outer yard, which is covered by boulders for some reason.

Honghu put a lot of effort into this mansion, the mansion was cleaned very cleanly, and the layout was exquisite, the red lanterns on the veranda made the mansion festive and peaceful.

snort!Want to be the hostess of Yongchang Hou Mansion?It's not that easy!Zhao Shuang looked around while complaining in his heart.

A maid led them into the main courtyard. There were many mahogany tables and chairs in the open air, and about [-]% of the guests were already seated.

In front of the tables and chairs is a stage made of mahogany with white lacquer, above the stage are glazed lanterns, the ground is covered with mahogany floors, and a pale pink curtain hangs in front of it.

They only had time to glance at the courtyard before being led by the maid into a wing room near the stage. There was a small door in the wing room leading to the backstage.

"This is the repertoire to be performed tonight. Please prepare it here, both of you." The servant girl served tea and handed a booklet of music scores to Bing Ji.

"Thank you, sister." Bing Ji took the brochure, bowed her knees and saluted, and explained to Zhao Shuang after the maid exited the room, "Generally, there are only three songs in the brochure when the stage is set up, and the rest... …that is, the guests sing whatever they order. Princess, you only need to play the first three songs.”

A qualified singer has at least memorized the singing methods of hundreds of songs in her heart, but musicians usually rely on the piano score to accurately play so many songs.

The two sat down to drink tea, Zhao Shuang took a glance at the booklet of the big red square, and said with emotion, "It's not easy to be a singer, so many songs have to be memorized in my heart."

"Of course it's not easy. I have been learning music since I was seven years old, and I don't dare to say that I can sing it, but I remember most of it." Bing Ji smiled at her and said, "But if you meet a wealthy guest, you can do it once. Earn a year's worth of silver."

"Oh?" Zhao Shuang looked at the woman in pink strangely, "You live in the palace, and you get monthly silver, so why do you need so much money?"

"It's... for my concubine's parents in the country," Bing Ji showed embarrassment, and asked in a low voice, "Princess, my lord... when will he come back?"

"Do you miss him?" Zhao Shuang counted with his fingers, "The prince has only been away for a few days, and he has not yet arrived at the southern border. It may take half a month before he comes back!"

"I'm not a concubine..." Bing Ji hastily waved her hands.

How could she miss him!She wished that he would come back later, so that she could complete the escape plan with Xu Lianyu before the prince returned to Beijing.

"Don't be embarrassed," Zhao Shuang patted Bing Ji's shoulder, and smiled generously, "As a woman, I naturally understand that in the future... I will arrange a bed for you."

"No... no need," Bing Ji lowered her head and sighed, "I have been in the palace for five or six years. If I could serve the bed, I would have already. Sometimes I think, if I didn't enter the palace, but Entering an ordinary family, whether it is a wife or a concubine, maybe now... there is a man and a half woman under her knees..."

Zhao Shuang heard the sadness in her words, but didn't know how to comfort her.

"Then...that being the case, if in the future...the lord wants to give you away, would you be willing?" Zhao Shuang rolled his eyes and said tentatively, "I have no other intentions, I just want to ask you... Do you have any other plans?"

It's all the regent's fault, and he doesn't like him, why do you keep so many people in the back house?
"Princess!" Bing Ji heard her ask, and grabbed her hand suddenly, and was about to say something, when she heard footsteps approaching the door.

Then a slender figure pushed open the door and walked in, holding a candlestick in his hand.

"Trouble both of you tonight, Changsheng is polite." Chen Yang cupped his hands and bowed to the two, his eyes fell on the young man in black behind Bing Ji.

Zhao Shuang didn't dare to look into his eyes, squinted and looked out the door, and faintly saw a red figure hiding behind the pillar.

It's Honghu!
Although she couldn't see the face and figure clearly, but the breath and footsteps, she would not be mistaken, it was Honghu!
Zhao Shuang felt a chill down her back, and her fingernails hidden in her sleeves were embedded in her flesh unconsciously.

"What did you say, Lord Hou? Bing'er has accepted your deposit and will definitely do her best." Bing Ji got up and bowed her knees in return, and then pointed to Zhao Shuang who was beside her and recommended, "This is the slave's musician Yudao."

"Yudao has met Lord Hou." Zhao Shuang got up, cupped his hands and saluted, and then teased in a low voice, "These days Bing'ercha doesn't think about food, I think it's someone who made her fall in love with her at first sight. , Master Hou really looks like a fairy."

"Oh?" Chen Yang looked at Bing Ji with a smile, not at all embarrassed, "Bing'er fell in love with me at first sight? That's a coincidence, I'm also fond of Miss Bing'er..."

 Thank you, cute Tangsiyu, for voting for the monthly ticket, the hall master will remember it in his heart.

  It seemed that the monthly ticket event couldn't be done, so we held a fan value event, and everyone can go to collect book coins!At the end of Chapter 48.
