Chapter 661 The lively one-year-old ceremony.
"Oh, I understand."
He went to the front hall without stopping and went through all the procedures personally. Only then did Wenjiu feel relieved.
Then he heard the eunuch from the front hall running over to tell him that the Crown Princess and Wulanzhu had arrived together.
Wenjiu immediately put down the list in his hand and stood up to greet them.
As soon as he went out, he saw Wulanzhu nimbly jumping off the tall horse. He was wearing a black suit with a red belt, and he exuded a heroic aura.
In addition, she has not been exposed to the wind and sun on the grassland recently, and Wenjiu gave her a few bottles of skin care oil, so her skin is not as dark as before.
Even if Wulanzhu is thrown into a crowd of beauties, she is still an alternative beauty that can be seen at a glance.
Wen Jiu couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow, what a heroic and beautiful woman."
"She is indeed a heroic and beautiful woman." The Crown Princess came down from the carriage with her hand holding the tea, and couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.
Wu Lanzhu wasn't embarrassed at all by the two of them laughing. Instead, she said with a smile, "You guys noticed it too? I also think I look a little more pleasing than usual. The skin care oil Sister Wenjiu gave me is really useful. However, I still can't compare to you two beauties."
"Compared to each other, we all need to become more and more beautiful. Don't you know that? A few days ago, didn't we all have a meal together at Zui Xiang Lou? People say we are the three beauties of the capital, so we must live up to this name."
The Crown Princess said with a smile.
Wen Jiu found it funny: "Is there such a thing?"
I was wondering why there has been an inexplicable increase in love recently. So this is what is going on?
About seven or eight days ago, Wulanzhu was in a bad mood and came to see him. Coincidentally, the Crown Princess asked the Crown Prince to allow her to come to his house and sit for a while, under the pretext of helping with the one-year-old ceremony.
Originally, they wanted to hold a banquet at home, but the wine was too much to hold back. After nagging the Fourth Master for a long time, he finally agreed to let them go out together.
Although we went to our own Zui Xiang Lou, at least we were out, and we were very happy to warm up the wine.
Speaking of which, ever since the day Emperor Kangxi came to the mansion, the Fourth Master has not allowed her to go out.
That day, when the Fourth Master was interrogating him, Wen Jiu told him that he had gone out to earn money.
Who would have thought that the next day the Fourth Master would give her another 12,000 taels of silver and tell her to spend it as she pleased.
Wenjiu was truly speechless by the Fourth Master.
Although it was a little, I couldn't help but appreciate it, so I stayed at home quietly for a few days.
Later, the meal with the Crown Princesses wasn't particularly enjoyable. However, it also sparked heated discussion in the capital.
Wenjiu thinks that the Fourth Master should bear a great responsibility for the rumors about the three beauties in the capital.
When the three of them went out to eat, the Fourth Master actually sent over a hundred people to protect them.
Just imagine, three women with different styles and good looks, being protected by nearly a hundred people, making a scene on the street. It would be strange if people didn't talk about it.
That day, I didn't even have a good meal, but I was treated like a monkey.
Even when having dinner in the box, Bu Yan still knocked down several people on the opposite side who were looking at this side with binoculars.
What was originally a good gathering among girlfriends was ruined by the Fourth Master.
"There's something even more interesting. A few days ago, the Crown Prince got mad at me. Can you guess why?" The Crown Princess said with a smile.
Wen Jiu raised an eyebrow: "What's this time? Could it be because of the three beauties of the capital?"
Wu Lanzhu next to her also looked over curiously.
The Crown Princess smiled faintly: "It's half true. To be honest, the Crown Prince went out and said that he met a man in the music hall. The man holding his portrait was my portrait."
When these words were spoken, Wenjiu and Wulanzhu were both stunned.
"Is it so exciting?" Wen Jiu asked.
"And then what? And then what? I'm so anxious!" Wulanzhu said.
The Crown Princess smiled and spread her hands. "With his temper, he definitely investigated. He searched for a long time but couldn't find any connection between me and that man. In the end, he discovered that he bought the man's portrait from a street vendor for two taels of silver."
Wenjiu: “Ah???”
The Crown Princess laughed again. "Why, do you think it's outrageous? Let me tell you, there are even more outrageous ones. Your portrait is the most valuable right now. I heard it could fetch five taels of silver. Sister Wulanzhu's is even cheaper than mine, only one and a half taels."
Wen Jiu: "...it's...far from the mark."
Wu Lanzhu blinked twice, then nodded seriously: "Don't mention it, these people are quite fair in doing business."
Warming the wine: "..."
This is an infringement of portrait rights. I don’t know if there was any law to protect this in ancient times.
"What's even more interesting is that the pearl hairpin you wore that day is now worn by girls all over the streets and alleys. Every jewelry store has a large number of similar ones, and business is booming."
Wenjiu: "...Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
The Crown Princess raised an eyebrow: "What?"
Wen Jiu: "If I had known this earlier, I would have made a fortune."
Hearing this, the Crown Princess couldn't help but laugh: "Are you obsessed with money? Does the Fourth Master really need your money to spend?"
Wenjiu: "...To be honest, we really need it."
I haven't gone out to earn money for a long time, and the spirit stones I have are almost used up.
"What? Do you want us sisters to lend you some?" asked the Crown Princess.
"No, no, no." Wen Jiu waved his hands repeatedly: "It's just a joke, who can complain about having too much money..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Wulanzhu disappeared in a flash.
Warming the wine: "..."
"Hey? I'm not lending you money! Why are you running away?"
The Crown Princess tugged at her sleeve in amusement, then raised her eyebrows and motioned Wenjiu to look behind her.
Wenjiu turned around in surprise, and the next second he saw Shi Ye grinning.
"Um, Second Sister-in-law, Little Fourth Sister-in-law, you're here so early?"
As he said this, he rubbed his hands again and subconsciously glanced in the direction where Wulanzhu left.
Before Wenjiu and the other man could say anything, the Tenth Master bowed again and said, "I'll go help Fourth Brother." Then he chased after them in a flash.
Wenjiu's eyes widened: "Hey, the sun is rising from the west?"
The Crown Princess: "Yes, I just followed you all the way."
As he spoke, he let out a sigh, "This is what it means to appreciate something only after you lose it. In the past, Old Ten always clamored to cancel the engagement and always asked Wu Lanzhu to stay away from him. Now that the engagement is canceled, Wu Lanzhu has obediently stayed away from him. You see, he really cares about it.
If you ask me, he has to suffer a little."
Wen Jiu couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Well, what you say, Crown Princess, always makes me feel comfortable. It's very insightful."
The Crown Princess rolled her eyes. "Don't flatter me. I can see other people's affairs more clearly. It's common for a bystander to see more clearly. My own palace is also a mess, and I haven't been able to sort it out in all these years."
Wen Jiu just laughed: "How can you not understand it? You just don't want to understand it at all."
Speaking of this, the Crown Princess sighed softly, "You really understand me. I really don't want to bother. I feel relaxed today."
Seeing Wen Jiu looking over curiously, the Crown Princess continued, "The Crown Prince is being held back by his beloved concubine. As for me, I have some free time, so I can rest here with you. I can also visit my nephews, which is so relaxing."
As she spoke, the Crown Princess took the hand that was warming the wine and walked into the house. She smiled and said, "I'm curious, what exactly will your clever sons grab during the Zhuazhou ceremony?"
