Part 1: Intertwined Time and Space Chapter 4: Trip to Li Country
Chapter 322 Shi Mansion (4)
"Miss, Shi Mansion is almost here, right in front."
After leaving Qinghu Villa for about an hour, Qi Jiao said in front of the car.
Yue Qing retracted her gaze from the window and moved to the front of the car.
Qiaoer opened some car curtains and Yueqing looked forward.
I saw a lot of people standing outside the gate of a house in front of me, and Shi Rong was standing on the official road at the foot of the steps.
Some people gathered around, pointing curiously, but they didn't dare to get close and stood far away.
Chang Rong stopped his horse and the motorcade stopped outside the gate of Shifu.
Chang Rong got off the horse first, and immediately a young man came forward to take the horse and pull it aside.
Everyone dismounted one after another.
Qi Jiao took off the step stool in front of the carriage and opened the curtain.
Yue Qing got out of the car, and Cai'er hurriedly stepped forward to support her.
Yue Qing stepped on the stool and jumped down, looking around happily.
Yu Xin and others also got off the carriage. She probably had never seen so many people before. She half covered her face with a fan, leaving only her eyes exposed. She was supported by the maid and walked to Yue Qing's side.
Several people at the door of Shi Mansion also walked down.
Shi Rong was the first to step forward: "Welcome everyone in the Villa to be our guests."
Mo Xue responded to him on behalf of everyone: "Excuse me."
Shi Rong then said to Yu Ze and others: "Miss Yu Xin and Miss Yu Ting have been working hard all the way. They must be tired on the road."
The jade-hearted lady bowed: "Thank you, General Shirong, for your concern. It's been a good journey."
Yu Ting quickly followed and bowed.
Shi Rong nodded and said to Yue Qing: "The princess is here, let us wait."
Yue Qing said: "Oh, I got up late again, and the journey is a bit long. If I know some kind of shrinking technique, I can guarantee that I will arrive an hour earlier."
Shi Rong smiled and said: "The group leader is still so articulate." Then he pointed at the people walking down and said: "Let me introduce you to everyone, this is my father."
Yue Qing looked around and saw a kind middle-aged man who smiled and said: "Oh, welcome, everyone in the villa is welcome to be our guests. I, Shi Lang, please forgive me if there is anything not done thoughtfully in the mansion today." ."
Mo Xue bowed back to him on behalf of everyone: "Master Shi, you are so polite. It is us who have disturbed you. The young lady and the lady of your house have been close friends for a long time. I apologize for interrupting you rashly."
"No, no, it's an honor for everyone from the Villa to be our guests." Shi Lang bowed quickly.
Then he looked at Yue Qing happily and said: "I have met Princess Shun'an. I have long heard that Princess Shun'an has a really cheerful temperament. Today, when I saw her, she turned out to be lively and generous."
Yue Qing stepped forward and said, "Uncle Shi just doesn't think I'm naughty."
Shi Lang smiled and said: "No, no, no. Shi Ying, why don't you come and meet me soon."
A girl behind her came forward and said: "Shi Ying has met all gentlemen, she has met Princess Shun'an, she has met sister Yuxin, and she has met sister Yuting." She did not cover her face with a fan, and was more generous than Yuxin and the two girls. Some, with confident lights on their faces.
Mo Xue nodded.
Yu Xin and Yu Ting returned the favor.
Yue Qing also replied: "Hello, sister Shi Ying."
Shi Ying smiled.
Shi Lang smiled and said: "Okay, don't say it at the door, come into the house quickly."
Everyone followed him into Shi Mansion.
The architectural style of Shifu is similar to that of Yongjing Palace, except that the front yard area is not as large as Yongjing Palace, the scenery is not as beautiful as that of Yongjing Palace, and most of the buildings in the palace are low.
A few trees were also planted at the door, and a few jars were placed by the wall.
Yue Qing looked around curiously.
Shi Ying walked next to her: "I heard that my brother Yuqing's sister's yard is very beautiful. As soon as you enter the door, you can see exotic flowers and plants, and there are many beautiful flowers and trees. There is also a river in the garden?"
"Well, that's right. I don't know those people, but they look really good."
"Then when can I go and have a look?"
"Okay, next time your brother goes there, I'll take you with me. Not only do I have a beautiful garden, but I also have a lot of delicious food."
"Really? That's great. I have to go check it out."
When everyone came to the living room, Yue Qing saw that several people were already sitting in the hall.
Shi Hu and Bowei Wang Yueqing knew each other, and the other two looked somewhat familiar, one of whom was sitting in the first place.
The four people stood up when they saw them coming in.
After Shi Lang welcomed them in, he also sat at the front seat, side by side with the previous person.
King Bowei and the other three people sat on one side, and Shi Rong also walked to their side. Counting him, there were four people opposite Yue Qing. King Bowei sat at the head, and the other one sat below him. Below him were Shi Rong. and Shihu. Shi Ying stood behind Shi Rong.
There were more people on Yueqing's side, so two rows of seats were arranged.
Yue Qing was brought to the first place by Cai'er, followed by Mo Xue, Chang Ge, and Yue Ke.
Sitting behind Yue Qing was Qi Jiao, followed by Yu Ze, sisters Yu Xin and Yu Ting. They were still half-covering their faces with fans, but they were a little bolder.
Chang Yuxiao and Cai'er stood on both sides of Yue Qing, while all the Red Guards and Zhu Guards stood on one side.
The first man took a look at their arrangement.
Shi Rong said: "I guess you all don't know each other yet, so let me introduce you to him. This is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Your Highness, these are the gentlemen of the Villa."
Yue Qing glanced at him for a few times before remembering where she had seen this man. She had seen him when she went to the palace.
The prince nodded: "Mu Pei has met all the gentlemen."
Mo Xue nodded: "The prince is polite."
Chang Ge didn't even look at him, and Yue Ke nodded.
The prince was a little embarrassed, and Shi Rong said quickly: "Today, the prince led people to shoot hunting at the school grounds. I heard that the princess was coming, so I came here to welcome him."
Yue Qing said with a smile: "Why do I feel familiar? It turns out to be the prince's brother. I met him in the palace. Isn't your naughty brother here?"
The prince's face softened a little, "Sister Yuqing is talking about the fourth brother? He didn't come today."
"Oh, I don't know if he was reprimanded after the separation in the palace last time. When I came back, I was still thinking, if it was because of me being reprimanded, I would definitely go to the palace to ask for an explanation for him."
"Don't worry, sister Yuqing, my father just said a few words, my fourth brother won't take it to heart."
Yue Qing said: "That's good."
The prince said kindly: "Sister Yuqing has never been to the palace since she left last time. My mother often mentions you and misses you very much. I wonder if sister Yuqing can go to the palace to see her again when she has time?"
Chang Ge frowned and said, "Miss, I still have a lot of schoolwork to complete. I'm afraid I won't have time to go to the palace."
The prince was puzzled: "Oh, I still have homework to complete? I wonder what homework it is?"
Chang Ge obviously didn't want to answer him.
Yue Qing said: "Oh, just learning to read, draw and so on. I was asked about it by my father the day after I returned to the palace. He thought that I was not good at learning, so my husband arranged these things. Originally, there were some Female workers and the like, but later my husband said there was no need for me to learn it, so I was exempted from it.”
"I see, it's really hard for Sister Yuqing. But don't be tired. Maybe you can learn faster if you take some time to play."
"I thought so too, so as soon as I heard that Shi Rong's family has a school ground and, oh, a younger sister, I quickly came over to play with her."
Everyone in the hall looked understanding, Shi Ying covered her mouth and smiled.
Yue Qing looked at her and saw that she was clearly making fun of herself in her eyes, and then looked at Shi Rong in front of her.
"Shi Rong, when I come to your house, I won't sit and chat in the living room all the time, right?"
Shi Rong smiled and said: "It seems that the princess is bored. Dad, why don't we take the princess and a few ladies to the backyard to enjoy it."
Shi Lang nodded and said: "That's fine, you go ahead."
The prince said: "Sister Yuqing is not interested in our conversation?"
"Of course, men have more in common when chatting with men. We girls don't participate in this, and we don't understand it at all."
The prince said: "Sister Yuqing said well. In this case, let's have fun in Shi Mansion. I will talk to sister Yuqing later."
Yue Qing smiled and said: "Okay. Sister Shi Ying, let's leave quickly."
Shi Ying nodded and saluted the prince and others.
The prince smiled and said: "Sisters, go quickly."
King Bowei glanced at Yue Qing, his eyes unclear.
Shi Rong saluted: "His Royal Highness, I will take my leave."
The prince nodded.
Shi Rongping guided Yue Qing and others away. Yue Qing stood up and called Yu Ze who was sitting aside and Yu Xin sisters who were behind.
Qi Jiao and Chang Yuxiao also left. Chang Rong and others were divided into two sides, one stayed and the other left.
Yue Qing walked outside the door and heard the prince in the hall say: "I have long admired the scholarship of the Mohist family. I have also heard that each tribe in the villa has its own cultural heritage. I would like to ask some gentlemen for advice."
I secretly breathed a sigh of relief and left here.
In the hall, Mo Xue watched Yue Qing and others leave, then turned to the prince and said: "His Royal Highness, your words are serious. Mo Xue is not proficient in Mo academics, and I am afraid that he will be disappointed."
Chang Ge said: "Chang Ge has nothing to say to the prince."
Yue Ke smiled and said: "My Yue family is a businessman, but we don't have much cultural background. Your Highness, please forgive me."
The prince was a little worried about his face.
King Bowei said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very thirsty for talents, but it is common for everyone in the Villa not to communicate with other countries. Your Highness does not need to pay too much attention to it. I have experienced this deeply during my time in Xibao City."
The prince said: "In this case, I am a little impatient."
King Bowei said: "The prince is sincere and generous to others, so he will definitely be treated with courtesy by everyone in this villa."
Shi Lang continued: "King Bowei is right. His Royal Highness and everyone in the villa are all talents of the younger generation. Why not visit the school grounds and see the generosity of my Li Jing man."
The prince said: "What Master Shi said is that it is better for me, the prince, to travel with a few gentlemen. The gentlemen have probably not seen our school grounds in Li country, it is very lively there."
Mo Xue thought for a while and said, "Okay, it's hard to refuse the prince's kindness. We should be respectful and obey his orders."
The prince stood up happily and said, "Okay, sir, please come this way."
Mo Xue stood up, Chang Ge frowned at him, and stood up together with Yue Ke.
Shi Lang said: "I still have some things to do, so I will stay with you young people."
King Bowei said: "I also have some things to deal with. I will meet you all later."
Shi Lang said: "Shi Hu, you accompany the prince and all the gentlemen on the trip."
Shi Hu quickly said: "Yes, uncle."
