Chapter 34 Arriving at the Palace
Dongfang Chen walked in front to lead the way.
As she stepped over the threshold and entered the house, Dongfang Chen carefully reminded her, "Princess, be careful with the steps."
Nangong Xue smiled and said, don't worry, "I'm not a porcelain doll."
As soon as she entered, Nangong Xue found that the facilities inside were tall and majestic, with exquisite patterns carved on the door.
The two golden dragons are vivid and lifelike, which of course also indicates that the owner is extraordinary.
After walking a few steps, there is a corridor with some green plants planted next to it, and of course various exotic flowers and plants.
Peony, rose, crabapple, rose, osmanthus, wintersweet, rose, narcissus, camellia, etc.
Across the corridor is a rockery, and next to the rockery is a pavilion for people to rest and play.
Passing by the rockery is the main house, where the masters live.
There is a small room inside which is the master's study. It is an important place and is usually guarded by guards.
Arriving at the main hall of the main courtyard, Dongfang Chen called out to the butler.
The butler immediately walked in, bowed respectfully, and asked, "What are your orders, Your Majesty?"
"Butler, go and call everyone in the mansion, including the guards, secret guards, maids, and servants.
All the staff on duty must be present to meet the future princess."
"Okay, my lord, I'll go right away."
After one stick of incense, everyone arrived.
Dongfang Chen looked at everyone, "This is my future princess, and also your mistress. Treat Wang Fei as you would treat me. Do you understand clearly?
Anyone who dares to disrespect the princess will be beaten to death or sold."
Everyone knelt respectfully, "Greetings, Princess."
Dongfang Chen was quite satisfied, "Princess, let me introduce you to our housekeeper Hu Wenshan.
He is an old man who follows me and I can trust him. Princess, if you need anything from the butler in the future, just tell him directly.
And the coachman, Hu Dahai, is the son of Hu Guanjia."
"There are also several maids serving here, namely Wang Guilan, Zhou Yunfang, Sun Yueqin, and Li Shuyue.
The people next to them are the cooks. If you want to eat something in the future, just tell them directly.
They are Li Yuexiang, Zhou Guiqin, Zhao Yunxiu, and Sun Yumei.
"My house is rather simple in terms of staff. Apart from the servants and the nanny, there are no maids. Are you used to it? If not, I will immediately send someone to buy some."
Nangong Xue: "No, I don't want too many people chattering around me.
I already have four around me, which is just right.”
Wang Guilan stood up and said, "Your Majesty, Princess, please allow me to say that Your Majesty and Princess are about to get married.
If there is no maid to serve me, wouldn't I be laughed at by others?
If you two masters don't like the maids to serve you closely, you can just let them serve outside the courtyard."
"Madame Wang, you previously served my mother, so I'll leave this matter to you."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Princess, let's continue. This is my military advisor Qiao Beichen, my left deputy general Lu Zhengqing, and my right deputy general Cheng Wenyou.
The captain of the guard Zhao Wenshan, the genius doctor Ye Shiyang, the largest imperial merchant in Kang Muhua, and also the king's money bag.
And this is An One, and then An Ten, the captain of the guards, Zuo Qingyun.
There are only so many people in my house at present."
Ye Shiyang began to look at Nangong Xue. The future princess was really beautiful. Wasn’t she just a useless vase?
Why does it feel a little different from the rumors? His eyes are clear and smart, and he stands straight.
She is not like those delicate and pretentious young ladies from wealthy families. It seems that the rumors are wrong. If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I would have been harmed by the rumors.
Cough cough.
Dongfang Chen glared at Ye Shiyang and said, "I don't want the eyes anymore."
"Okay, the rest of you go do what you need to do.
Princess! What do you think of my palace? Is there anything that needs improvement?
Nangong Xue took a look and found that there were indeed areas that needed improvement, but not now. Everything could be decided after she got married.
"Your Majesty, there's no rush."
An Yi still remembered that Nangong Xue had disliked him before, humph, he was trying to get back at her, "Princess, I'm afraid you can't figure out how to change it.
Do you need help from my subordinates? I know a lot of people who specialize in this field and are very familiar with it.
Several other people also jumped out to watch the fun. Now they were not wearing masks, and they were all handsome young men around sixteen or seventeen years old.
His face was grim and murderous, and anyone else would have been frightened to the point of losing their legs.
But she was eager to try, she wanted to see how powerful the War King's secret guards were.
If I can't even beat her, then I'm useless.
Dongfang Chen seemed to see what Nangong Xue was thinking.
"Princess! How about you compete with them? If you win, I will give you a gift."
“An Yi chuckled, Master, even if you want to elevate the princess, you don’t have to put us down.
Who doesn't know what kind of person the princess is? She's not good at anything, including music, chess, calligraphy, and painting.
Not to mention learning martial arts and letting her compete with us, aren't you making things difficult for us?"
"If we hurt the princess, it would be disrespectful. If we don't, wouldn't that be disrespectful to the princess?"
Oh.
Dongfang Chen sat on the recliner, with an expression of watching a good show under the mask.
"Princess! These people look down on you. What are you going to do?"
Dongfang Chen also wanted to test how capable Nangong Xue was and whether she could subdue him and his people.
The princess he wanted was someone who would fight alongside him, not someone who was only competitive and pretentious.
If I became his princess, I would definitely become a target.
If I don't have any ability at all, won't I be easily taken advantage of by others?
Nangong Xue also smiled, "Your Highness, it's not impossible for me to compete with them, but you have to tell me the rules, and what benefits will I get if I win?
I won't do anything that has no benefits. After all, fighting is very tiring."
"hehe.
It seems my princess is a money-grubber. How about this, if you can beat one of them, you can choose three things from my storehouse? "
"Really? Keep your word."
"Princess, my words are of course true. A gentleman's word is as good as a whip."
"Okay, so how do we compare?"
"That way they don't have to use Qing Gong. As long as you can survive 10 of their moves, you'll win, how about that?"
"OK."
"Let's get started. Who's going first?"
An Yi: "Princess, how about I go first?"
"Okay, it doesn't matter who comes first."
Nangong Xue tied her skirt into a knot to prevent it from getting in the way and affecting her performance.
An Yi: "Princess, you make the first move. I'll give you three moves."
"Oh! If that's the case, then you can't blame me."
After saying this, Nangong Xue smiled slyly and started fighting with An Yi at flying speed. Fortunately, An Yi reacted quickly, otherwise he would have been knocked to the ground by Nangong Xue.
