Rebirth Nunnery

Chapter 77
Jin'an Prince's Mansion is an alternative in Shangjing.

This is not only because King Jin'an is the only king with a different surname in the entire dynasty, but also because this king with a different surname married the most favored princess of the royal family back then, and his status in Shangjing even surpassed that of many members of the royal family.

But this King Jin'an has never done anything practical in the past few decades.

He has no military power, does not pay any attention to others, and indulges in singing and music all day long. He is the most idle of all princes, but also the most high-profile.

Even so, no one in Shangjing dared to underestimate Jin'an Palace.

Just because King Jin'an is extremely favored.

It is said that today's sage was sworn brothers with King Jin'an when he was young, and he trusted him more than his own brothers. Therefore, no matter how mischievous and fun King Jin'an was, the favor never weakened.

When Ding Jiayi heard the information about Jin'an Palace from Wu Mingxi, he couldn't help thinking.

The princess of Jin'an passed away more than 20 years ago, and the title of princess has been vacant.There are more than a dozen concubines and wives in Jin'an Prince's mansion, but the heir of King Jin'an is only the heir born of the princess.

Ding Jiayi never believed that there are truly infatuated men in this era, but this King Jin'an has only one son, but it still surprised her a little.

What Wu Mingxi knew was from hearsay, and after Ding Jiayi listened to it like a story, she left it behind.

For the past few days, she has been rehearsing in Lingxi Pavilion, only in the middle of the night when Wen Yan took her to Lenggong to see Xuezui.

Xue Zui was not in a hurry to teach her talent, but taught her various knowledge first.

There are rules and power divisions in the inner court of the imperial palace, the deeds of the past emperors and other generations of emperors, the situation in the court, and more detailed knowledge of seven schools and eight categories.

It seems that Xue Zui said whatever came to his mind, without certain rules and ideas.

But these seemingly casual knowledge always make Ding Jiayi mesmerized.

Xue Zui's knowledge is beyond her imagination.

Astronomy, geography, medicine and politics, there is nothing she doesn't understand.

She is also proficient in various talents and vocal music. No wonder she was a sensation in Beijing and was called the number one beauty.

The longer the contact, the more startled Ding Jiayi became.

In the middle of the night that day, Ding Jiayi came to Lenggong as usual, and Ding Jiayi spoke directly as soon as they met.

"Xue Zui, I may not be able to come tomorrow."

Xue Zui was sitting on the swing in a daze, when she heard this she turned her head slightly and asked, "Why?"

"Yunyuefang has a role, so I want to go too." Ding Jiayi shrugged, walked up to her and sat down, shaking his head, "To be honest, I really don't want to go, it's more comfortable to stay with you."

The corner of Xuezui's mouth raised a faint smile: "Which one is going to Shangjing?"

"Prince Jin'an's Mansion."

As soon as these four words were spoken, Xue Zui's body shook suddenly, and her eyes fluctuated violently.

"Prince Jin'an Mansion... King Jin'an... Lin Xian..."

A voice as low as a mosquito escaped from her mouth, and Xuezui's eyes showed a daze.

Ding Jiayi felt strange, she had inquired, this Jin An Wang Mingming is called Luo Xian!

Seeing that Xuezui seemed to be in deep thought, Ding Jiayi didn't disturb her, but just sat quietly aside.

After a long time, Xue Zui came back to his senses, and his expression returned to indifference, but there were still strong emotional fluctuations in those eyes.

"Xuezui, you...know King Jin'an?"

Xue Zui didn't answer, her eyes flickered, as if she was thinking about something.

Ding Jiayi waited for a while, but she didn't see her speak, so she could only put the question back in her heart and never bring it up again.

Afterwards, Xue Zui was in a half-trance state, obviously absent-minded.

Just when Ding Jiayi was about to leave, Xue Zui suddenly stopped her.

"This thing, you put it on." Xue Zui handed her a string of pendants, which seemed to be made of coral beads of several colors. It is very cherished.

Ding Jiayi took over, feeling even more puzzled.

"If you encounter trouble in Prince Jin'an's Mansion, show this to King Jin'an or the heir of the Prince's Mansion." After Xue Zui finished speaking, she turned and left without giving Ding Jiayi a chance to ask.

Ding Jiayi looked at the string of coral beads under the light, and suddenly found that there seemed to be a word in the middle of the string of beads.

It's just that the beads are a little loose, and she can't see what the word is.

Putting the beads away carefully, Ding Jiayi left the cold palace.

……

On the evening of the second day, a group of people from Yunyuefang, led by Huanyue, drove out of the palace gate in two spacious carriages.

Jin'an Prince's Mansion is located on Wangfu Street in the east of Shangjing. This street is lined with the residences of princes and nobles. All the mansions together occupy one-third of Shangjing.

The Jin'an Prince's Mansion is the one closest to the imperial palace on the whole street, and the closest to Donghua Gate where Yunyuefang is located.

Speaking of which, the people in Yunyuefang are no strangers to Jin'an Palace, because the palace holds several dinner parties every month, and usually the singers and dancers in Yunyuefang are invited to perform.

Yunyuefang would never refuse invitations from Prince Jin'an's Mansion. For them, this was also an excellent opportunity to show themselves in the aristocratic circle of Shangjing.

This is also the reason why those dancers were excited when they heard the news.

The carriage drove leisurely for less than a quarter of an hour before arriving at Prince Jin'an's Mansion.

Ding Jiayi got out of the car with everyone, and as soon as he looked up, he saw the gate of Jin'an Palace.

The vermilion gate covered with rivets reveals a grand atmosphere, and the black plaque hanging above is said to be written by the Holy Majesty himself.

There are six steps in front of the gate, second only to the nine steps in the imperial palace. The two stone statues on the left and right do not look like dragons or lions, but seem to be some kind of ancient beasts.

There are two side doors on the left and right of the gate, which are slightly shorter than the gate, and the steps are only three steps, but they are still much taller than ordinary people's gates.

Huanyue led the crowd to a side door on the left, where people had already been waiting.

The servants of Prince Jin'an's Mansion were not as arrogant as the servants of princes and marquises. The smiling steward came up to Huanyue as soon as he saw Huanyue, which made people feel displeased.

Huanyue did not dodge, and talked to him with a smile, as if she had known him for a long time.

The entire Jin'an Palace was bigger than Ding Jiayi had imagined, the front hall was only half an hour away, and the backyard was even more complicated, much bigger than Qingwang's Palace.

Along the way, Ding Jiayi lowered his eyes and walked quietly, unlike others who looked around and whispered.

The entire Jin'an Palace is astonishingly rich and luxurious. They just passed by some verandas and flower ponds. From the words of the people around them, Ding Jiayi felt that this Jin'an Palace was not simple.

If Qingzhou's Prince Qing's Mansion is a local tyrant, then this Jin'an Prince's Mansion is a wealthy family, which is not at the same level at all.

After passing through some courtyards, the group came to the Yicui Building where the front and back courtyards intersect.

This Yicui building is an attic. It looks like there are three floors from the outside, but there is a universe inside.

The entire interior of the pavilion was hollowed out, and the first, second and third floors circled around a high platform in the center.

The high platform is about two meters high, and it is said that it can be lowered or raised according to the different guests. The whole high platform is decorated in a simple but gorgeous way.

Outside the Yicui building, there are tall and green trees growing all around, the greenery is deep, even in midsummer it will not feel hot.

When Ding Jiayi and the others came to the Yicui Tower, there were no guests, but there were quite a few.

Maids and maids in dark green bijia shuttled through it, arranging everything quietly and orderly.

From the conversation between the steward and Huanyue, Ding Jiayi learned that most of the guests who came today were princes and dignitaries from Shangjing, with extremely high status, so the arrangements for the palace were also extremely high.

Besides Yunyuefang, there are many other people performing this time.

The Jin'an Prince's Mansion had originally raised a group of dancing concubines, and the people from Yunyuefang looked at them.

Huanyue did not make a sound, but with a cool and rich smile on the corner of her mouth, she looked at a woman opposite.

The cutscene time was very fast, and Ding Jiayi and the others did not have much time to rehearse. Soon, they were arranged by the steward somewhere in the attic, waiting for the performance to start.

As people from Yunyuefang, they were naturally at the end as the finale, and Huanyue was also used to this, sitting casually without a trace of nervousness.

Ding Jiayi was fine, but Lu Yuer was so nervous and excited that she couldn't sit still.

Ding Jiayi was thinking about something when he suddenly heard the sound of silk and bamboo outside and remembered that the guests had arrived.

Huanyue looked around for a week, only to find that two figures were missing, but her brows frowned slightly.

"Where are Lu Yuer and Qin Wanxia?"

When everyone looked at it, they found that Lu Yu'er and Qin Wanxia were not there. After asking everyone, no one knew where they had gone.

Huanyue's bright light flashed, as if she had thought of something, and a trace of anger flashed in her eyes.

"Damn two little hooves, could it be..."

Huanyue cursed in a low voice, then raised her head suddenly, her eyes circled around, and finally fell on Ding Jiayi.

"Go, get them back! If it's our turn to play, they will come back, and then you will be punished together!"

At this time, Huanyue is showing her No. 1 aura in Yunyuefang.

Everyone around did not dare to speak, but looked at Ding Jiayi sympathetically.

At this time, she was simply a fish in the pond who was affected by the disaster.

Ding Jiayi got up slowly, nodded, put on a cloak to cover her face, and then walked outside.

Just as Ding Jiayi walked out the door, he heard two voices coming from the room.

"Sister Huanyue, those two didn't sneak out in an attempt to 'encounter' with those sons, did they?"

"Hmph! If that's the case, I will go back and report to the owner. Just relying on the two of them, treating Yunyuefang as a springboard? If the rules are broken, there is only one dead end!"

Huanyue's cold voice came through the crack of the door.

Ding Jiayi's heart trembled, and he guessed where Lu Yuer and the two were going.

On the way, she vaguely heard a few conversations behind the two of them.

The word Yicui comes from the Tengwang Pavilion. When the Tengwang Pavilion was collapsed and rebuilt in the Song Dynasty, the scope was expanded, and two new pavilions, "Yicui" and "Yicui" were newly built in the north and south of the main pavilion.

The ancients knew how to name...
