Han Rui fiddled with the tea leaves in the cup. She had already heard that a woman and her servants had been going to Tianxiang Tower to cause trouble recently. Although they were stopped by thugs, the woman simply changed her strategy and stayed in Tianxiang Tower every day.

There were people crying at the door, saying that the sign on the top of Tianxiang House had made the husband lose his home and abandon his wife and children. This attracted many people to watch the fun, and the number of guests in Tianxiang House was much less.

Surprise flashed through Mudan's eyes, and she shook her head in denial.

"It's just that there have been a lot of things lately, so I haven't slept well."

After sending Peony away, Yanzhi asked puzzledly: "Why didn't the princess help her take care of the trouble?"

To Princess Protector, it was just a matter of words.

"She chose the path. She wants to preserve her dignity, so naturally I want to help her."

On the twelfth day of the first lunar month, Princess Zhaoyang sent a message to all the noble ladies of the aristocratic families in Beijing, inviting famous opera troupes in Beijing to perform, and Han Rui and Qi Wei also received the invitation.

The two of them sat under a tree and basked in the sun. It was only the first month of the year, and they would sweat all over after being exposed to the sun for a while. The temperature had already begun to gradually rise.

Qi Yuan cut the post in his hand several times.

"The life of the princess is really luxurious, and this post is actually embroidered with gold thread."

Han Rui glanced at it and thought that she had never seen the original owner's extravagance.

"Princess going?"

Qi Yu asked lazily.

Han Rui hesitated for a moment, "Do you want to go? If you want to go, I will go with you. There will be nothing wrong with you."

"Of course I want to go."

Suddenly a vigorous and powerful voice came from the air.

Pei Qiniang appeared next to the two of them, minding her own business and moved the plate of ginger-flavored plums in front of her.

"Not only is the princess going, but the old lady also wants to go and have a look."

Han Rui's distraction immediately disappeared. She sat up straight and looked at Pei Qiniang with shining eyes.

I have to say that this worldly master is really a treasure. Every time she appears, or every time she takes action, there will always be different gains.

"Could it be that the old man wants to take the opportunity to visit the palace?"

Pei Qiniang gave her a finally enlightened look, "The old woman has visited the Han Dynasty's palace several times. The palace is heavily guarded and airtight. I returned without success. It might be easier if I followed the princess in."

Qi Yu suddenly became very interested: "This is good, this is good."

Han Rui rubbed her hands excitedly, "Senior, do you have anything good that can make people reveal their true feelings?"

She always felt that Pei Qiniang was like Doraemon, as if she always had various surprises waiting for her to discover.

"You may be able to get what you want by hypnotizing a person, but it is not easy and requires the cooperation of the other person."

Pei Qiniang's expression was calm, and her sharp eyes swept over her, as if she had already understood her thoughts.

Obviously, neither Princess Chaoyang nor her maid will cooperate, so this road will not work.

The next day, the three of them went to the Prince of Han's Mansion together, and met Jiang Ting, Ding Yuehua, and the Ning family brothers and sisters at the gate of the Prince's Mansion.

Jiang Ting happily came over to say hello.

Han Rui was puzzled. It stands to reason that Princess Zhaoyang would show such hostility to her cousin, but she would still come to the appointment, "I thought you wouldn't come."

Jiang Ting explained: "The princess sent her personal maid to deliver the message to me in person. She also said that it was her fault last time. She had not returned to Beijing for a long time and her etiquette was rusty. This offended me and asked me to come today.

If you want the palace to listen to the show, you have to apologize to me."

"Well, can I compensate you?"

If it weren't for the misdeeds of the Chaoyang Princess in the original owner's memory, she would have almost believed it.

"Yes, if I don't come today, Miss Qinglian said that she would have no way to survive, so I had no choice but to come. It just so happened that my cousin also came. With so many people, is she still going to embarrass me?"

"Since we're here, let's go in together."

Qi Yu joked and joked for a while, then suddenly turned around. Where was the trace of Pei Qiniang who was following behind?

Princess Chaoyang was talking to Zhao Zhou's daughter Zhao Ruhua. The maid beside her reminded her that the eldest princess had arrived. She quickly packed up her clothes and came forward to greet her with a smile.

"Big sister is here, please come in quickly."

This time she was very considerate and even greeted Qi Yu, Jiang Ting and others. She looked like a gentle and lovely lady, how could she be the least bit arrogant and domineering?

She personally welcomed Han Rui and others into the flower hall of Liuli Pavilion. Qinglian came up with a group of maids to serve tea and snacks.

"Sister, the sun is nice today and the stage is set up in the garden. Should we go there now or not?"

"Let's wait until the show starts before we go."

"Sister, this golden and jade-inlaid Ruyi hairpin is so beautiful."

She pointed at the brilliant wishful hairpin on Han Rui's head and praised it.

"This was built in the palace a few days ago, and it's the only one."

"No wonder, only someone as elegant as my eldest sister can wear this hairpin."

With such an obvious compliment from her, Qi Yu, Jiang Ting and others could only stare at their own toes.

Han Rui was even more embarrassed. A clever person like Princess Chaoyang paid such a compliment today. What did she see in her eyes?

Still want to make some ideas?

Thinking about it this way, I am still at home in the garden. Although I have to deal with other ladies who come to salute me, it is better than dealing with this cousin.

"That's a bad thing to say. My sister has a pretty face and the phoenix tail on her head is also very unique."

Several people looked at the phoenix-tail hairpin in Princess Chaoyang's bun. How could she, who always lived a luxurious life, wear something ordinary?

Princess Chaoyang was a little shy and said, "Eldest sister is so complimentary. The sun is just right at the moment. I will accompany eldest sister to the garden."

When she arrived at the garden, the scene in front of her made her speechless. The stage had been set up, and the tables and chairs were set up. Princess Han came over to meet the eldest princess protecting the country, "It's great for Chaoyang to follow the eldest princess and learn from the elder princess's dignity and generosity, and act steadily."

things."

"Auntie Huang, even the Queen Mother praised Sister Chaoyang for her modest conduct."

"The Queen Mother has a keen eye. I hope she can do as the Queen Mother said, so that I won't be an eyesore here."

"Auntie Huang, walk slowly."

As soon as Princess Han left, the ladies immediately came up to pay their respects to Han Rui.

"Get up quickly, don't be too polite. Today is the princess's banquet, and I'm here to join in the fun. Don't be formal."

Over there, Prince Yan Ming of the Han Dynasty was entertaining male guests. When he turned around, he noticed Han Rui's arrival and hurried over to greet him.

The original owner had no impression of the Prince of Han in his memory. The only few times they met him were at palace banquets. He followed the King of Han around for a long time and studied abroad. The bohemian nature in his heart could be seen in his eyes.

But it is precisely his bohemian attitude that attracts the boudoir ladies in Beijing the most.

"I have met Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Han Rui said politely: "We are all family members, so stop being so polite."

"Yes, the weather is very beautiful today. It's rare for the eldest princess to show her favor, so I won't disturb the princess's pleasure."

"Your Majesty, just go and get busy."

"yes."

I just said a few words to the prince of the Han Dynasty. As soon as he left, Princess Chaoyang said with a smile: "It was my mother's intention to listen to the opera today. My brother is now old, and my mother wants to marry him a prince."

, but my brother insists on choosing by himself, this is not..."

Han Rui pretended to be angry: "So you invited me here today just to be a foil?"

She pouted deliberately, and her plump and moist red lips turned red, which was so breathtaking that Princess Chaoyang was stunned.
