Chapter 262 Going to the Teahouse
Chapter 262 Going to the Teahouse
"Pfft, cough cough cough, hahaha."
Shen Zhiyi couldn't help but burst into laughter.
[That old emperor is quite humorous. General Yunhui may indeed be a bit old, but you can't just point it out so directly.]
General Yunhui was a little embarrassed, but he felt relieved the moment he received the imperial edict.
He couldn't disobey the imperial decree.
After returning, General Yunhui showed the imperial edict to the General of the Cavalry, who remained silent.
Their relationship can now be described as unbreakable.
—Bang Ying.
The General of the Cavalry opened his mouth and then closed it.
It couldn't help but open again, only to close again in the end.
After going back and forth several times, he turned away dejectedly.
General Yunhui only informed his father and then didn't follow up.
So he had absolutely no idea what his father did afterward.
*
"Shen Zhiyi, Shen Zhiyi!!!"
The Eighth Princess's excited voice carried from a great distance into Shen Zhiyi's courtyard.
"Your method really works."
Princess Bajie's face was very red, whether from excitement, joy, or because she had run all the way there.
"If I had known this would happen, I would have gone to see my father much earlier. I didn't expect my father's power to be so effective. That big guy didn't dare to say a single 'no' when he saw my father's eyes."
Shen Zhiyi: ? ? ?
She put down the small bowl of watermelon she was holding.
"Eighth Princess, do you think General Yunhui agreed only because of His Majesty's, uh, authority?"
"That's not it."
The Eighth Princess skillfully took the small bowl containing watermelon from in front of Shen Zhiyi and ate several mouthfuls.
The fruit on Shen Zhiyi's side was even more plentiful and of better quality than that in her palace.
The other person looks more like a biological child now.
Shen Zhiyi nodded silently after hearing what the Eighth Princess said.
"Alright, whatever General Yunhui thinks, he's about to become your husband anyway."
The Eighth Princess smiled shyly and said excitedly in a low voice, "Shen Zhiyi, you have no idea how big and muscular that guy is. He feels amazing to the touch."
Shen Zhiyi waved.
"I don't like muscular men."
"I know, I know, I know you don't like it, so that's why I said it."
Shen Zhiyi: ...
"Ahem, well, I brought you some new clothes. They were made by the palace embroiderers. I'm giving them to you, but you have to come with me somewhere."
Shen Zhiyi looked at the other person cautiously.
[I suspect something's fishy.]
After seeing the clothes.
[If there's a trap, then there's a trap. The Eighth Princess is an extremely kind person; she certainly wouldn't harm me.]
Ahhh, what a beautiful dress!
Wow, with all these layers, it still feels so light when I put it on!
Shen Zhiyi, this country bumpkin who had never seen the world, was shocked.
After changing into her clothes, the makeup and styling were done by the Eighth Princess's personal maid.
"Shen Zhiyi, it's a pity that someone as beautiful as you wears men's clothes every day. Come on, let's go to General Zhongwu's place!"
"Yeah."
next second.
"What?"
What were we doing at General Zhongwu's residence?
[Oh my god, is the Eighth Princess going to go find General Zhongwu's youngest daughter? Didn't she already win the heart of a handsome man?]
Shen Zhiyi's mind raced, and finally she understood.
I understand now, the Eighth Princess went to show off.
She shook her head helplessly.
Although the Eighth Princess has been much more well-behaved lately, just like a leopard can't change its spots, her inherent nature is hard to alter.
The Eighth Princess, who was walking proudly toward General Zhongwu's mansion, almost tripped and fell flat on her face when she heard Shen Zhiyi's words.
While Shen Zhiyi's words make a lot of sense, aren't they a bit too crude?
"Well, it wouldn't be appropriate to go directly to General Zhongwu's residence."
Shen Zhiyi grabbed the Eighth Princess: "Besides, that young lady isn't at home; she's gone out to listen to storytelling."
"I heard you went to read stories."
Shen Zhiyi nodded.
"Alright, then which teahouse will she go to listen to the storytelling? I want to go too."
【Ahhh, System, quickly show me which teahouse General Zhongwu's youngest daughter is at now?】
[Reporting to the host, the young lady from General Zhongwu's household is currently at the Mengyun Teahouse with the Crown Princess and the Crown Prince's concubine.]
"At Mengyun Teahouse."
"Let's go."
*
A private room on the second floor of Mengyun Teahouse.
The Crown Prince's concubine took a sip of tea to moisten her mouth before continuing to counsel the Crown Princess.
"Don't be too sad. Although the imperial grandson has been gone for so long, he still misses you and sends letters back every now and then."
"They were all SOS messages."
"Uh."
【puff. 】
The Crown Prince was so eager to send the Crown Princess a hundred letters a day that the old emperor eventually got annoyed and forced him to reduce it to one letter a week.
[The Crown Princess truly lives up to her motherly reputation. Those hundreds of letters from the Crown Prince all conveyed the same message: I want to go home, please come and save me! She actually patiently read them all. I wouldn't have that kind of patience.]
Shen Zhiyi frowned slightly.
The hundreds of letters from the Crown Prince were just as pointless as the old emperor's memorials of greeting.
Upon hearing Shen Zhiyi's voice, the Crown Prince's concubine breathed a sigh of relief.
Great, she's going to be free.
She quickly called the waiter over and brought out a chair.
result……
"Sister-in-law, why isn't mine included?"
The Crown Princess coughed awkwardly; who would have thought the Eighth Princess was also there?
Soon, another chair was added.
Everyone had just sat down.
The Crown Princess said with a smile, "Eighth Prince, congratulations! You're finally getting married."
"I didn't expect the news to spread so quickly."
The Eighth Princess smiled shyly, then noticed the young lady from General Zhongwu's family. She coughed lightly, raised her neck, and looked like a proud peacock that had won a battle.
The Crown Prince's concubine couldn't help but chuckle.
"Speaking of which, I have to thank the Eighth Princess today."
The Eighth Princess was completely bewildered: "Huh?"
[I know, I know. I never imagined that General Zhongwu's young lady already had someone she loved, but General Zhongwu just couldn't refuse the General of the Cavalry.]
From this perspective, the Eighth Princess actually did a good deed by accident.
The Eighth Princess, who never does good deeds: ...
"Your Highness, I am deeply grateful."
The young lady from General Zhongwu's household bowed to the Eighth Princess.
The Eighth Princess was still completely confused.
Wow, she sees him as a rival in love, while he sees her as a benefactor.
Everyone smiled slightly.
"Come, come, this tea was just picked today, it's very fresh."
The Crown Prince's concubine broke the rather somber atmosphere.
Just then, the gavel sounded downstairs, drawing everyone's attention.
The storyteller then began to tell his tale.
This is about the origin of this teahouse.
"As mentioned last time, this Mengyun Teahouse wasn't always called that. The name change stemmed from a deeply unforgettable love story..."
[Wow, almost all the customers in this teahouse are young girls. This storyteller certainly knows how to find material.]
