"Your Highness, are we still going out today?"
Cuier stood behind Wang Qingluan and asked while combing her hair.
"You don't know if you can comb my hair like this when you get out?" Wang Qingluan rolled his eyes at her from the bronze mirror, and then seemed to be trying to convince himself: "Yesterday I agreed to take them to Baiyuan Garden, as King Zheng of Yue Kingdom , how could I not keep my promise?”
"Yes!" Cui'er's eyes lit up and she laughed: "I promise to dress His Highness beautifully today, and the two around him... No, how can our Highness compare with two maids?"
"You talk a lot. I think I will marry you to a deaf man from now on. Then it will be up to you to talk to someone!"
"Twee'er doesn't want to get married, Tweety will always follow His Highness!"
A moment later, two pretty figures appeared in an ordinary courtyard in Fuyang City.
The current Prince Zheng's Mansion is the former residence of Wang Xuanying. At the beginning of the founding of East Vietnam, the national service Fuyang was on the border between Tang and Yue, so Wang Xuanying left a secret passage in the mansion.
Later, when Wang Qingluan came of age, this mansion was granted to her, but he never told her about the secret passage, and I don't know if he himself had forgotten it.
But Wang Qingluan discovered the secret passage while playing hide-and-seek with Cui'er in the palace, so the two of them were able to sneak from the palace to Fuyang City without anyone noticing.
"Miss, hurry up." Cui'er took Wang Qingluan's hand and changed her title after going out.
"Did you bring the wrong purse today?"
"Don't worry, it's been checked."
This place is not far from the small courtyard where Tang Ping and the others live. When I went there, I happened to see Tang Ping sending Yao Yuanzhi out.
"Don't worry, Mr. Tang. Yesterday's negotiations with East Vietnam went very smoothly. They are also eager to build ships and develop their navy, so they are not desperate for price. At most, the results can be negotiated in two days, and we can return to China!"
"Thank you for your hard work, Lao Yao!" Tang Ping patted Yao Yuanzhi on the shoulder and sent him to the carriage that came to pick him up at Honglu Temple.
Wang Qingluan's face darkened slightly, then immediately returned to normal, and he and Cui'er arrived at the entrance of Tang Ping's courtyard.
"Miss Wang, Cui'er, good morning!" Tang Ping showed a sunny smile.
"Good morning, Mr. Tang!" Cui'er saluted: "I agreed to take you to Fuyang Baiyuan Garden today. Are you ready?"
"Okay!" Tang Ping said, turning to the other side and shouting: "Hey, let's go, the tour guides Miss Wang and Cui'er are here!"
Anyway, he now regards his trip to East Vietnam as a tourist trip.
Soon a group of people came out.
"Sister Luyi, can you let me give you a hug?"
Cui'er squeezed her master towards Tang Ping, then ran over to ask Lu Yi, who was holding Xiaochuang.
When eating yesterday, she had already become familiar with this chubby white bear. She had to say that after cleaning the panda, its black and white cuteness was really a killer of all ages, both at home and abroad.
Cui'er ran away, and Wang Qingluan, as a Fuyang native, could only explain to Tang Ping some of Fuyang's customs and customs along the way.
She has been erudite since she was a child, and when she speaks, she also quotes from classics and references. Some legends circulated in the Ming Dynasty are also told clearly and logically, which makes Tang Ping listen with relish.
Soon the group came to Fuyang Baihuayuan. The entire Fuyang is spread out over a flat river. If we use the standards of later generations, this is a standard low-altitude city, and the terrain is very flat. The entire Fuyang is basically only more than 100 meters above sea level.
Baiyuan Garden has the only "mountain" in Fuyang with an altitude of 150 meters, so it is also a favorite place for nearby literati and poets.
In addition, the spring is bright and the sun is shining brightly today, so it is still morning, and there are already many literati in Baiyuan Garden.
Compared with the people of the Tang Dynasty who were still struggling to make ends meet, the lives of the wealthy East Vietnamese people were indeed more comfortable.
When Little Fatty arrived here, he began to struggle desperately in Cui'er's arms. Although he had some kind of wonderful connection with Tang Ping, his wild nature was still there, and now he wanted to have fun in the woods.
"Take the leash and take it to play!"
"Okay!" Cui'er and Xiao Luo are very similar. They are both still children at heart. After hearing Tang Ping's words, they were happily dragged away by Xiaopang.
Pei Min glanced at Li Bai, and he followed reluctantly. Now that he was away from home, there was no problem for him to be Xiao Luo's bodyguard.
For today's outing, Tang Ping had already made preparations. He brought floor mats and other things with him when he came out of Chang'an. He would lay them out with Lao Cui and Lao Du, and then poured out a big bag from his backpack. Big bag of snacks.
Wang Qingluan saw these colorful snacks for the first time and couldn't help but curiously asked: "What are these?"
"These are potato chips, just..." Tang Ping originally wanted to say that they were made of potatoes, but the first batch of potatoes in Datang were not yet ripe at the moment, so she didn't know, so she could only vaguely say: "That's right. Grow snacks.”
"Then this is strange-flavored beans, this is drunken peanuts, this is crispy rice, this is seaweed, and this is bayberry!"
Tang Ping can eat these things or not, but Xiao Luo, Lu Yi and Li Bai all like to eat them. In addition, Lao Cui and Lao Du love beef jerky, and old man Pei Min likes to chew two peanuts and peas, so in the end I brought a lot of them here.
"Seaweed?" Wang Qingluan chose the thing she was most familiar with: "Is this seaweed?"
At this moment, fishermen along the coast of East Vietnam have already brought it out to eat and sell. This stuff is dried and sent to Fuyang. It will be very delicious when adding some to the soup, so she is also familiar with it.
"Alright, try it!" Tang Ping tore open the package and gave a piece to Wang Qingluan. She naturally opened her mouth without picking it up with her hands.
After taking a bite, he raised his eyes slightly and found Tang Ping looking at him with some shame. Only then did he realize that this was not in his palace, and the person feeding him was not Cui'er.
Tang Ping's heart was beating wildly. He had been single since birth and had no intention of falling in love. This was the first time he encountered such a situation.
Why did this girl feel like a cat, especially when she raised her eyes just now, her eyelashes fluttered, and a pair of clear eyes looked at him, which made his mind go blank for a moment.
"Cough...cough..." Tang Ping coughed twice to hide his embarrassment: "Well, how does it taste?"
"It's quite delicious, crunchy, and a little sweet..." Wang Qingluan squinted her eyes. This was the first time she had eaten such a snack: "How are they made?"
"Uh, I don't know either!" Everyone sells this stuff from outside, and not many people know how to make it.
Then the atmosphere became awkward again.
At this moment, there was a sudden noise in the distance.
