Chapter 1105: The Princess is a Walking Billboard!
and laughing, enjoying the breeze, quite relaxed.When the sun began to set, the men in the front yard finally dispersed.Li Zhensheng and Li Lao'er were so happy they both drank themselves into a stup...Shui Ling's eyes were red-rimmed, she sat beside her master, for a long time before she managed to squeeze out a sentence.
"Your Grace, growing up is really tough! When we were little, we didn't have all these things. Grandmother and Fourth Madam were also at home, accompanying you every day, eating, drinking, and playing." 。“ Jia Yin sighed, and also smiled wryly. 。“Yeah, growing up brings a lot of troubles, but no one can stop "> 。When we were young, we were sheltered by our families and didn't have to worry about anything. 。But as we grow up, we have to shoulder the responsibility of protecting our home and family, including our elderly and children. Naturally, this can be tiring. 。"If only I could stay young forever." 。"Shui Ling was a little down." 。Jia Yin patted her on the back, comforting her, “Don’t talk nonsense. These days you have to work hard to go to the palace and deliver meals to the Third Princess.” 。At this point, we can only do so much. 。"Alright, Your Highness, please rest assured. While I may not be good at everything else, running errands is something I can certainly handle." 。“Shuiling quickly agreed and then took out the pair of gold bracelets.” 。“My lady, this bracelet is too precious.” 。"This style seems like it's for a wedding, the third princess actually gifted it to me!" Jia Yin received it in her hand and looked at it carefully, feeling even heavier inside. 。This is indeed a dragon and phoenix bracelet, symbolizing auspicious dragons and phoenixes, a hundred years of harmony. 。The third princess didn't care at all, and casually swatted him down. 。As you can see, she had longed for marriage before, but now she dislikes it so much..."Take it, don't upset the princess over such a small matter..." 。"Jia Yin waved her hand. " 。Shuilin put the bracelet away and replied, "Then Shuiyun and I will each have one. She'll cook, and I'll deliver the food. Since we receive rewards, they should be divided equally." 。Having said that, she skipped happily to the kitchen. 。When dusk fell, both Li Laoer and Mr. Wen returned to the village from the city. 。 Everyone was chatting and eating, making the dinner table naturally lively. 。Li Laer looked at his little niece's complexion, which was still good. He let out a slight sigh of relief in his heart, and then tentatively persuaded him. 。"Fu Niuer, the third young mistress is getting married, what do you plan to send as a dowry Do you need help from Uncle Two"Mr. Wen also agreed, "Yes, the wedding date is indeed quite urgent..." 。Outsiders don't know the truth, rumors are flying everywhere, it's a shame for the third princess. 。Since you are close friends with the third princess, now is a good time to comfort her. 。Love me, love my dog. The good news is that the elders are concerned about the third princess naturally because... 。Then she smiled and replied, "Uncle Two, Mr. Wen, please rest assured" 。I'm going to give the Third Princess a set of jewelry and I even had a gold and jade card made. She can use this card at the Baiyun Inn headquarters store and all its branches to eat whatever she wants. 。"Coincidentally, when my older brother went to the southwest, I also had people open a branch there." 。The third princess is never afraid of running out of snacks, whether she's at her new home in the capital or her husband's family. 。Everyone heard it and laughed. Li La Er replied, “You little girl, you’re a natural born businesswoman.” 。While adding makeup to the third princess, she didn't forget to collect silver. 。If Princess Three frequents Baiyun Pavilion frequently after this, going in and out as she pleases, outsiders seeing this would probably cause business to boom even more. 。“Well, I gave her all the snacks for free, so it’s only right she helps me by being a living advertisement.” 。"You can't bite the hand that feeds you, it's that simple!"
The crowd laughed even louder, momentarily forgetting their worries.
After the meal, Li Laoer and Mr. Wen hurried back to the city before the city gates closed. 。There's no other reason, tomorrow is the grand ceremony for sealing the crown prince. 。Although the Ministry of Rites had already petitioned the Emperor to reduce unnecessary procedures, compressing three days into one, the necessary processes still lasted from dawn till late at night, a full day of pure physical labor. 。Jia Yin hurriedly handed over all the prepared things to Zheng He. 。Li Lao'er and Mr. Wen hurried back to the city, stopped by Liu's house for a bit, then rested. 。The next morning, while it was still dark, the entire new city began to bustle. 。All officials of the fifth rank and above, regardless of whether they were honorary or actual positions, burned incense, bathed, changed their clothes, and then donned brand new, clean official robes before hurrying to the palace gate. 。As the sun just began to rise above the horizon, the palace gates had already opened. On the marble-paved courtyard, a multitude of officials, both civil and military, knelt there in darkness. 。The crown prince donned a bright yellow dragon robe. Aside from having fewer dragon claws, it was identical to the emperor's robe in every other way. 。Everyone, led by the Minister of Rites, repeatedly shouted "Long live," knelt down and kowtowed, then got up to perform a bow. They were so exhausted they felt numb. 。By the time the crown prince finished presenting the sacrificial text and paying respects to heaven and earth, the sun was already high in the sky. 。The crown prince went back to change clothes, have a meal, and rest for a while before continuing to pay respects to his ancestors. 。On the square, civil and military officials didn't have this kind of treatment. They could only sit on the spot and catch their breath for a moment. 。But the sun in the sky seemed to have gathered all its passion together, and it was far more violent than usual, baking the entire earth like a furnace. 。An official secretly took a little snack from his sleeve and stuffed it in his mouth, temporarily staving off hunger. 。To avoid using the restroom, they didn't dare to drink water last night, and in the morning, they didn't even dare to eat. 。I'm so hungry, my stomach is growling, and I'm so thirsty, my throat feels like it's on fire. 。Someone choked and stretched their neck, pounding their chest hard a few times before managing to avoid becoming the first Heavenly Martial official to die from choking. 。Li Laer and Mr. Wen, as well as Liu Zhiheng, were in different positions, but not far apart. 。At this moment, they were also sneaking bites. 。They brought snacks made by Jia Yin, each the size of a date. They had a glutinous rice skin on the outside and a sweet and sour fruit filling inside. They were appetizing and delicious. 。If you don't like it, there are also small pieces of jerky, with a slight salty and sweet flavor. Hold them in your mouth and slowly grind your teeth, they are both fragrant and satisfying to your hunger. 。Occasionally, when I was very thirsty, I would lower my head slightly and bite on a soft tube at the collar, and I could still take a sip of the cool sour plum soup. It really made me feel much more refreshed instantly. 。 Three people occasionally glance at each other, all with immense relief. 。Last night, they still thought the arrangement for their niece was too much trouble. 。Just now, this is truly a lifesaver... Mr. Liu and a group of old friends were arranged near the wall of the courtyard, able to get a little shade 。This was originally taken care of by the Ministry of Rites because they were old, so it was specifically done for them. 。Unfortunately, even this little bit of care doesn't work. 。Mr. Liu had just eaten two pieces of snacks when his companion beside him fainted. His eyes were closed, and his face was flushed red, clearly a sign of heatstroke. 。Everyone was startled, and they were about to call the imperial physician for help when the Crown Prince came out and immediately began the sacrificial ceremony. 。At a critical moment, Old Master Liu moved over and quickly took out a small porcelain bottle from his sleeve. He poured some summer-clearing pills into his old friend's mouth, and then took out a soft leather water pouch from his waist 。The old man kneeling on the other side also saw this and quickly hurried forward to help. 。One person holds a mouth open, the other pours water into it. A rare moment of understanding. 。When the Crown Prince had finished reading the sacrificial text and begun three bows, nine kowtows, his unconscious old friend finally woke up. 。He thanked the crowd with lingering fear, and the crowd hurriedly pointed to Old Man Liu. 。Grandfather Liu shook his head gently and comforted, "It's just a small effort. Let's just get through today first." 。“
The rescued friend quietly bowed his hands, smacked his lips twice, savoring the taste, and then exclaimed in surprise, “Brother Liu, you actually brought sour plum soup”the one who cured my cough in the first place!”Jia Yin was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, "Rest assured, Godfather, you don't have to worry about this. In the future, I will let Zhang Ye know...
