Rebirth Nunnery

Chapter 43
Ding Jiayi followed Mr. Luo to wander around the palace.

This Qingwang Mansion occupies a huge area, not only including dozens of individual courtyards, but also a quiet lake and half a mountain forest.

There are not many people in Prince Qing's mansion today. Ever since the concubine passed away many years ago, Prince Qing has not remarried the concubine. The mansion is managed by Luo Chengyi's biological mother, Mrs. Li. Three or five concubines.

Besides the elder son Luo Chengfeng and the young prince Luo Chengyi, Prince Qing's children also have three daughters, but both daughters are already married, and the youngest daughter has not yet reached the age of Ji, and has been raised in the mansion.

Of Qingwang's three daughters, only the eldest daughter has the title of a princess, married to Bozhou, and lived a pretty good life, but the other two concubine daughters are not taken seriously.

Ding Jiayi learned a lot of things about Qingwang's mansion intermittently from Mr. Luo. These things may not be secrets, but for Ding Jiayi who has just entered the mansion, they need to know the most.

After sorting out the information in his mind, Ding Jiayi had some clues.

Now it seems that because the King Qing is not around, the current Prince Qing's mansion is divided into two factions, one faction is naturally the eldest son, and the other is headed by Mrs. Li.

Ding Jiayi didn't know who Mrs. Li was, but since she was able to replace the concubine in charge of the palace and gave birth to a son Luo Chengyi, she must be very much loved by King Qing.

In comparison, the elder son didn't seem to please King Qing very much.

Thinking of this, Ding Jiayi couldn't help but feel a twitch in her heart. For her, this situation might be just right for her to take advantage of and fish in troubled waters.

Not long after, Mr. Luo brought Ding Jiayi to the vicinity of the Youhu Lake, pointed to the promenade behind the Youhu Lake and said, "Behind this lake is the backyard of the Wangfu, where the beauties of the Wangfu live. The whole Wangfu is based on this The lake is divided into four areas, the east courtyard is the residence of the eldest son, and the west courtyard is the residence of the little prince."

Ding Jiayi nodded when she heard the words, it was the same as on her map of the palace.

Ding Jiayi has long been familiar with the map of the palace given by the man in black, and remembers one place is not bad, but the map is not reality after all. Now that she has walked along the way, the map in her mind is compared with the scene in front of her, and she has a general understanding. .

"Thank you, Mr. Luo." Ding Jiayi sincerely thanked Mr. Luo.

Mr. Luo shook his folding fan lightly, and smiled very warmly: "Miss, you are welcome, I am just following the order of the little prince."

Ding Jiayi couldn't help but look at Mr. Luo more.

For some reason, ever since she first saw Mr. Luo, she always felt a familiar feeling about him, as if she had seen him somewhere.But no matter what Ding Jiayi thought, he just couldn't remember.

At this time, Mr. Luo's actions made Ding Jiayi even more puzzled.

Does he seem to be doing himself a favor?

But why would he do this?
Ding Jiayi was puzzled.

Later, Mr. Luo took Ding Jiayi around the lake to the east, but saw many people at the gate of the east courtyard.

Mr. Luo walked over curiously and asked, "Is there a visitor today?"

"My lord, my lord is inviting Mr. Jin."

Upon hearing the surname "Jin", Ding Jiayi couldn't help pricking up his ears.

"It turns out that the eldest son of the Jin family is here. I have heard about Mr. Jin for a long time. I didn't expect to see him in the palace today. Please inform the son." Mr. Luo seemed very happy, patted the guard, and quietly pressed and gave him an ingot of silver.

The guard rushed in to report, and after a while someone came out to greet him.

"Master Luo, please come in."

The man was dressed in a dark brocade robe, and he looked like a capable person beside Luo Chengfeng, but he looked very respectful when facing Mr. Luo.

When Ding Jiayi walked into the yard behind him, the man obviously cast his gaze and sized her up a few times.

Ding Jiayi pretended not to notice and behaved decently, which made the man even more puzzled.

When he heard Mr. Jin's name, Ding Jiayi guessed that Jin Moran must be here. On the boat yesterday, Jin Moran did not mention the purpose of Qingzhou City, but since he came to Qingzhou, he always wanted to visit Qingwang Mansion .

But what Ding Jiayi didn't expect was that he would choose today to be met by him.

I don't know if this is some kind of fate.

Ding Jiayi thought to himself.

The east courtyard occupies a large area. In addition to Luo Chengfeng's main courtyard, there are three smaller courtyards where his concubine Ji lived.

And Mr. Luo went straight into the main courtyard under the leadership of that person.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, there was a cool breath blowing towards his face, with a slight smell of alcohol, Ding Jiayi couldn't help frowning slightly.

After walking two steps, Luo Chengfeng and Jin Moran came out.

"Jin An, you came just in time. Come and meet Young Master Jin." Luo Chengfeng smiled rarely, and waved to Young Master Luo.

Ding Jiayi saw the figure behind Luo Chengfeng at a glance.

Different from yesterday's casual and uninhibited, today's Jin Moran is wearing a luxurious brocade robe, wearing a gold and jade crown, smiling reservedly, without a trace of overstepping.

Jin Moran also saw Ding Jiayi, and couldn't help being slightly surprised, but concealed his surprise well.

After Mr. Luo and Jin Moran met each other, Na Luo Chengfeng immediately led them into the side hall.

"Speaking of which, the two of you are distant relatives, but you didn't expect to meet for the first time in my Prince Qing's Mansion." Luo Chengfeng said something seemingly unintentionally, and glanced lightly.

Mr. Luo raised his wine glass and smiled gently: "My son, it's not that you don't know the situation of my family. This is the first time I have left Shangjing. I have been staying in Shangjing Mansion before. How can I have the opportunity to meet the Jin family?"

"Hehe, the prince is being polite. I, Jin Moran, are just a merchant. It is my great luck to meet you."

Jin Moran also took over the conversation, and raised his glass to toast Luo Chengfeng.

From the beginning to the end, Ding Jiayi just sat quietly behind Mr. Luo without opening a mouth, and Jin Moran didn't seem to see her, and his eyes didn't turn this way once.

However, there was nothing wrong with him, but the elder son suddenly looked over.

"Why would Jin An be with Miss Jiayi?" When Luo Chengfeng asked, a bright light flashed in his eyes.

"It was the Second Young Master who asked me to take Miss Jiayi to get acquainted with the palace, and tell me some rules by the way." Young Master Luo said unhurriedly.

"Oh?" Luo Chengfeng raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth slowly rose, "The second brother told me yesterday that Miss Jiayi's residence had an accident and there was no place to stay, so he invited the girl to live in the mansion for a while. But the second brother is also true, since the girl is invited, why doesn't he show up?"

Hearing Luo Chengfeng's words, Ding Jiayi hurriedly got up, bowed to everyone, and then said: "My son, forgive me, it's the little girl's fault. I heard that the second son is a little unwell today, so how about Jiayi being a lowly servant girl?" What about the second young master?"

"Hahaha... Miss Jiayi, don't need to be modest, I still don't understand my second brother's temperament?" Luo Chengfeng suddenly laughed, "He is famously fond of beauties, with a beauty like you in the house, How could he be willing to lie on the bed?"

What Luo Chengfeng said was quite ambiguous, which made people feel a little strange.

Ding Jiayi was also surprised. She had met Luo Chengfeng a few times, and he always looked calm and calm. Why did he speak like this today?
Although he was puzzled, Ding Jiayi didn't dare to show it.

When Na Luo Chengfeng saw this, his eyes twitched slightly, and he suddenly said: "I heard that Miss Jiayi's dance skills are outstanding, even the Shuangwu sisters are willing to bow down, why don't you dance for me today, how about it?"

"My lord, Miss Jiayi was invited by the second son after all..." Mr. Luo just wanted to politely decline, but was interrupted by Luo Chengfeng.

"Second brother, I have to say it myself." Luo Chengfeng still looked at Ding Jiayi with burning eyes, "Would Miss Jiayi be willing?"

To suddenly ask her to perform a dance, it is obvious that she is regarded as a dancer for fun. If it is placed on other women, they may be grateful, but with Ding Jiayi's pride, this is clearly a humiliation.

Jin Moran, who was sitting on the other side, looked at Ding Jiayi with some concern, feeling aggrieved for her.

And Mr. Luo also looked embarrassed, after all, he was in Prince Qing's mansion, he was just a guest, and sometimes he couldn't speak.

In this strange and quiet atmosphere, Ding Jiayi suddenly raised his face, and a smile suddenly appeared on his fresh and beautiful face.

"My son has an order, how dare the little girl disobey?"
