Xiao Zhixing woke up before dawn the next day.

He asked to review some documents about officials and current affairs that Eagle One had sent him.

One of the key points of interest is that Zhao Yuanqi, despite his advanced age, only has one eldest prince with ordinary aptitude.

His name is Zhao Lin, he is 15 years old this year, and he was born to Consort Zhang.

Thinking of the unexpected events at the Yanshan hunting grounds, could it be that something happened to the eldest prince or the emperor?

I went to the live stream to watch the replay and saw how the people from the future revered the Ghost Guard.

She nodded. It seemed that Eagle One and the others had done well in the future. The Ghost Guard had existed for thousands of years, so they must have been successful.

After breakfast, she planned to go out for a stroll and see the prosperity of Shengjing.

She changed into a black robe with red patterns, her hair still styled in a simple high ponytail, and a short sword hung at her waist. She rode out on horseback with Bai Mei and Mo Mei.

The Prince's Mansion was located in the inner city, where powerful and wealthy people gathered, and was close to the Imperial Palace.

Along the way, the wide streets were only frequented by carriages and servants of the powerful and wealthy, with occasional patrols by the Imperial Guards, creating a solemn and quiet atmosphere.

After passing through Shengyan Gate and entering the outer city, heading north, a bustling atmosphere immediately comes into view.

The northern part of the area is wealthy, inhabited by officials and scholars from Beijing; the further south you go, the poorer the area becomes.

The western district is a commercial area where merchants live, the eastern district is a residential area for ordinary samurai and generals, and the southern district is a mixed community with most commoners.

Xiao Zhixing rode his horse toward the western district, where it was bustling with activity.

Especially the commercial street near the North District, which is considered the CBD area of ​​Shengjing City.

Most of the shops owned by the powerful and wealthy were located there, and the Prince's Mansion also had several shops there.

Looking around, the customs and culture of Dasheng were similar to those of the Tang Dynasty.

Women walk confidently on the street, and there are even men dressed as women. People call them "girls" directly, and bystanders don't find it strange.

There were no bound feet, and even girls from brothels would solicit customers on the roadside. Some women would go in directly with their maids, and there were quite a few of them.

Colorful flags fluttered along the roadside, and the houses looked grand.

The shouts of vendors rose and fell, offering a variety of food from both the north and south, and the passersby were dressed neatly and cleanly.

It looks like a peaceful and prosperous world, but I wonder what it's like outside of Shengjing?

Upon arriving at the famous Fuyuan Restaurant in Shengjing, Xiao Zhixing dismounted and was about to enter when he exclaimed, "Eh? Princess Qingluan!"

Xiao Zhixing turned around and saw Lin Rushu, Li Ningxiu, and several others, along with their maids, coming towards him.

The people around them were carrying a lot of things, so it seemed they weren't riding in a carriage.

Xiao Zhixing turned around and waited for them.

Lin Rushu quickened her pace, smiled, and curtsied, "Greetings, Princess."

Li Ningxiu and another little girl also bowed to her.

Xiao Zhixing nodded gently, "It's better to meet by chance than to invite someone. Come inside and sit with me for a while?"

Lin Rushu smiled gently, "It's an honor."

The four of them, accompanied by their maids, entered the restaurant and requested a private room on the second floor, where they took their seats.

Lin Rushu pointed to the young, clever and lovely girl and introduced her, "This is Ningxiu's cousin, Wenxiu, Grand Tutor Li's most beloved granddaughter."

Li Wenxiu stood up to greet Xiao Zhixing formally, then chuckled and retorted:

"Wenxiu greets the Princess! ... Sister Rushu, if you say that, my eldest sister will get jealous."

Her voice was as clear as a nightingale's, and her eyes were full of cleverness.

Li Ningxiu covered her mouth and chuckled, scolding her, "You little rascal, you dare to act up in front of the princess. I'll tell my grandfather later, and he'll punish you by making you copy books."

Li Wenxiu immediately looked distressed and begged Li Ningxiu for mercy.

The two clearly have a very good relationship, not just a superficial friendship.

Lin Rushu personally poured tea for Xiao Zhixing and asked with a smile, "Princess, it's rare for you to go out today. Do you have any plans?"

Xiao Zhixing was scanning the bullet comments because as the names of Lin Rushu and Li Wenxiu appeared, the bullet comments went crazy again, with a massive number of asterisks appearing.

The crowd erupted in excited screams, no less than when I appeared.

So, will these girls become famous in the future?

That's strange.

It's important to know that in ancient times, even empresses were only recorded in historical records by their surname.

What kind of experiences and stories would an ordinary woman have to leave a mark on history?

[Aww, Wenxiu, is it really her? Is it her? Ahhh, I love you!!]

[As expected, the camera should follow the princess! Hahaha, I've seen my goddess!!]

Bai Su rolled her eyes and watched the live stream while sweeping the floor in the Prince's mansion.

Hmph, she'll work hard to get a promotion and a raise, and then she'll definitely go out and have fun with the princess.

[Like a book, my Like a book, so beautiful... Is it really Like a book? My dream girl]

[Waaaaah, I want to cry too, ***** damn it, my heart aches right now...]

Xiao Zhixing frowned; the comments about Lin Rushu seemed rather ominous.

She snapped out of her reverie, took the teacup, and said, "No plans, just wandering around."

Li Wenxiu immediately interjected, "Then will the princess come with us to Wenkui Tower? There's a literary gathering today, with talented scholars from the north gathering; it's quite lively."

Lin Rushu also extended an invitation, saying, "Next year is the spring imperial examination, and many students have already arrived in Shengjing. A literary gathering is held every month. Now it is a gathering of northern literati to make friends and exchange ideas through literature. We women can also participate and join in the fun."

Li Wenxiu nodded, "Sister Rushu was still the best in the poetry and prose group last month. This time, many talented people have appeared, making it even more lively."

Xiao Zhixing was indeed bored, so he went with them to take a look.

The original owner had heard Qi Mengshu mention this literary gathering.

However, the original owner of this body was socially awkward and never went, while Qi Mengshu made a name for herself at the literary gathering and was considered a talented woman.

After having a meal, the group walked through two streets and arrived at Wen Kui Lou.

The people coming and going here are all scholars and noble ladies, which makes the whole street seem more refined.
