Chapter 282 Ji Heng
"Brother Erniu, let's go to Qinglong Street."
"Yiyuanju." Uncle Yan Ping added.
Erniu sighed and said to Xuanfeng, "Brother Xuanfeng, please lead the way."
Xuanfeng nodded and rode his horse to lead the way.
It didn't take long to get there.
This teahouse is quite large and elegantly decorated.
The first floor was very lively at this time, with storytelling going on.
Listening carefully, she realized that it was still the story of her future father-in-law, Yan Hancheng.
Yu Banxia and Yan Pingshu looked at each other and smiled.
"Boss, give us a private room." Xuanfeng walked over and instructed the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper looked at the few people and thought they were either rich or noble, so he quickly responded, "Okay, Xiao Si, take these guests to the Lanhua Pavilion on the third floor."
The waiter Xiao Si hurried forward to lead the way, and stood at the stairs and made a respectful gesture of invitation.
Uncle Yan Ping took her hand and walked upstairs.
After Xiao Si and the others had gone up, he hurried upstairs and followed beside to lead the way.
"This is the room." Xiao Si walked forward and pushed open the door.
After everyone was seated, he came forward with the tea and snacks brochure.
Yu Banxia took it, looked at it, and raised her eyebrows slightly.
The owner of this shop was very thoughtful and even asked someone to draw colorful pictures of the snacks.
After selecting a few that he was very interested in, he handed the booklet to Liuli and the others.
Liuli didn't bother to be polite with her master. She took it and ordered some. Xiao Si looked at her in surprise.
This master is so nice that he even lets his servants order food together.
"That's all." Liuli ordered a few and then returned the snack booklet to Xiaosi.
Xiao Si took it, asked Yu Banxia and the others to wait a while, and ran downstairs.
Yu Banxia stood up and opened the window. Outside the window was the moat. In early spring, there were already people boating there.
She just stood at the window for a while and then returned to her seat, but was caught a quick glimpse of her beauty by a young man.
"What place is that?" the young man asked the boatman.
The boatman took a look and replied, "Mr. Chen, that is Yiyuanju."
"Yiyuanju? Red Mansion?" Master Chen tapped his left hand with a folding fan.
The boatman waved his hands quickly: "No, no, Yiyuanju is a teahouse, not a low-class place."
"Come to the shore, sir. I'm going to have some tea." Master Chen laughed.
The boatman sighed. He had just seen the beautiful figure standing at the window.
I just hope that girl is also from a noble family.
The boatman pulled the pleasure boat to the shore, and the female companion that Master Chen brought on board asked, "Master Chen, are you just going to abandon me here?"
"Take the money and get out of here quickly. Don't get in the way of my good deeds." Master Chen casually threw five taels of silver at her.
He got off the boat with the servant and headed straight for Yiyuanju.
"Dear guest, may I come in?" Xiao Si asked while standing in front of the door.
Xingyu went forward and opened the door. Xiaosi and a few waiters were standing outside the door.
"Here are the refreshments you ordered. Please enjoy them. I'll be waiting outside. If you need more water, just let me know."
Xiao Si said respectfully.
"Okay." Liuli responded, and Xiaosi turned around and went out to wait outside the door.
"Master, this snack looks quite good, please try it." Liuli put a piece of pink snack on the plate in front of Yu Banxia.
Yu Banxia nodded, picked it up and took a bite.
"Well, it's sweet but not greasy, it's really good." Yu Banxia's eyes lit up, it was worthy of being a shop opened by the descendants of the imperial chef.
"Try this tea, it's no worse than the tribute tea." Uncle Yan Ping poured her a cup of tea.
Yu Banxia took a sip of tea and nodded with satisfaction.
"Aqing, your recommendation is really good. When my parents come, I will bring them here to try it."
Uncle Yan Ping smiled and said yes.
Suddenly, there was a noisy voice outside: "My young master, I am going to the third floor to drink tea today. I saw someone on the third floor earlier."
"Why, are you bullying me because I can't afford the money?"
Xiao Si hurried forward and said, "Sir, the third floor is not open to ordinary people. Please move to the second floor."
"Pa!" The sound of slap was heard.
Yu Banxia frowned, and Uncle Yan Ping glanced at Xuanfeng.
Xuanfeng and Erniu walked out of the private room at the same time and looked at the person who came.
He is wearing so little in early spring and holding a folding fan in his hand. Who is he trying to show off to?
The man was not very old, wearing a blue brocade robe and a jewel-studded headband on his head.
He behaves like a romantic young man.
"I am the son of the richest man in Chaosheng Prefecture, Chen Zigui. With my family's wealth, I am not allowed to enter the third floor of Yiyuanju?"
"Then may I ask you, what kind of person can go up to the third floor?" Chen Zigui asked unhappily.
Xiao Si was about to speak when he saw General Ji’s second son, Ji Heng, coming over.
"Master Ji."
"Well, what's going on?" Ji Heng nodded and looked at Chen Zigui who was making trouble.
Xiao Si briefly and quickly explained what had happened.
Ji Heng nodded, and seeing Xuanfeng’s happy face, he turned his head to glance at his servant.
The latter understood and stepped forward to grab Chen Zigui by the back of the collar.
"Let me go!" Chen Zigui shouted angrily.
Ji Heng walked towards Xuan Feng and asked, "Is your prince in there?"
"Master Ji, stay on the ground." Xuanfeng clasped his fist towards Ji Heng.
Chen Zigui wasn't stupid either, and Ji Heng's voice was loud too.
Following the direction, the woman who had opened the window earlier appeared in that private room.
Unexpectedly, the woman was someone close to the prince.
He immediately stopped shouting, "Let me go. I can walk on my own. What a disgrace."
Ji Heng's men snorted coldly and let him go.
He didn't leave and just stood guard at the stairs.
Chen Zigui reluctantly left the third floor and went to the second floor.
The waiter quickly took him to a private room.
"Sir, have you just arrived in the capital?"
"What?" Chen Zigui snorted unhappily.
The waiter said quickly, "Don't be upset, sir. If you have just arrived in the capital, you should be more careful. This is at the foot of the imperial city."
"You never know when a person wearing ordinary clothes on the street will turn out to be a high-ranking official or a royal relative."
"At the foot of the imperial city, there is the Dragon Capital coiled up, and I am doing this for your own good."
After hearing what the waiter said, Chen Zigui was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.
He just came to his grandparents' house to celebrate the New Year's birthday, and his parents' instructions were still echoing in his ears when he left.
Before going out, his grandmother also reminded him to be low-key and not to be reckless.
Now he was really scared.
He was afraid that the prince would be unhappy and come down to punish him.
Chen Zigui didn't dare to leave. He was so nervous that he almost cried.
The waiter looked at him and shook his head. Without saying anything else, he turned and left the room.
upstairs.
Ji Heng was allowed to enter the house.
"Ji Heng pays respects to Prince Jing'an and Princess Yongle."
"There's no need to be polite when we're family. Take a seat." Uncle Yan Ping said with a smile.
Ji Heng was the second son of General Ji. He did not like martial arts and chose the path of literature.
He was the top scorer in high school three years ago, and now he is the county magistrate in a wealthy county.
"When will we arrive at Qingyuan County?" Uncle Yan Ping poured him a cup of tea and asked with a smile.
After Ji Heng thanked him, he replied, "Not a few days."
(There are only three chapters left before the finale. Thank you all for your company. Thank you. See you in the new book.)
