After months of hard work, Dongqin's swindling squad and Princess Meatball are finally ready to set sail.
Dong Qin and Wu Houde arranged for four pirate ships to cooperate and set sail from Yejian Port together with the Anji Shenzhou and Kangji Shenzhou.
Princess Meatball was both excited and nervous about doing such a big business for the first time.
The investment is too big. What if something happens to the ship at sea... Pshaw, what are you thinking? We'll definitely return with a full haul.
According to Lao Wu, this overseas trade trip of hers will not only break even, but may even earn her a hundred or a thousand times her initial investment.
She dared not make a big show of going to the dock to watch the two large ships set sail, but she still secretly came to Yejian Port by carriage and played cards with four male favorites at the inn closest to the dock.
That day, Shen Su and Jin Feng, who had gone to the dock with Lao Wu, returned happily to tell her, "Princess, the Anji Shenzhou and Kangji Shenzhou have set sail smoothly."
She sent twenty guards from the princess's residence onto the ship; they were all top-notch fighters.
If it weren't for her first time traversing the Maritime Silk Road, she would never have gone to sea with Old Wu's makeshift crew. What kind of status did she have? A powerful princess!
Old Wu was very perceptive. Seeing that she was surrounded by her four male lovers from the capital and two male lovers from Ye Jian, he respectfully took his leave: "I have been busy for several months and need to go home to see my mother."
Princess Meatball didn't care. Anyway, when the ships returned and arrived at Yejian Port, her guards would naturally inform her.
Before the ship set sail, she had already instructed Gangshou and Lao Gui to make sure they remembered the route, as they wouldn't be able to follow Lao Wu's unorthodox methods every time.
After spending a few days in Yejian Port, Princess Meatball went to inspect the horse farm of Lin Haohao, a male favorite of Yejian. Seeing the plump and strong horses in the farm, she smiled and said, "Not bad!"
Lin Haohao led out a white horse and then a chestnut horse. The two horses looked unruly, with shiny and smooth manes that cascaded down their necks like waterfalls, and strong and powerful tails that resembled swords ready to be drawn.
Princess Meatball looked at the horse and praised its majestic appearance repeatedly.
Lin Haohao tossed the reins of the white horse to Princess Roudan, who was momentarily stunned and instinctively sidestepped.
He frowned and said angrily, "What are you doing?"
Lin Haohao was surprised for a moment, then immediately apologized: "I'm sorry, Your Highness, I forgot to remind you. Please forgive me."
He knelt before her, and Princess Meatball, seeing his remorse, reached out and tugged at him, saying, "It's alright, just don't be so reckless in the future."
Lin Haohao looked up at her: "Shall we set off now?"
"Set off?"
"Isn't the princess going to run a few laps at the racetrack today?"
Lin Haohao was surprised, as were the other male concubines, including Jin Feng.
The princess would always ride her horse around a few times!
Jin Feng then realized that ever since the princess woke up from the water, she seemed to have stopped riding her horse through the streets. The princess had loved horses since she was a child, but now she seemed to have lost all interest in the thrill of horse racing.
Even "Princess Meatball" was dumbfounded.
In both of her lives—no, in all three of her lives that she remembers—she couldn't ride a horse.
In modern times, people's means of transportation are cars and trains, and even electric cars are everywhere. Horse riding is now only a niche activity for the aristocracy, such as equestrianism.
She had never ridden a horse before.
In his previous life, shortly after his death, Gu Chengyan feared her face would be recognized by the royal family, so he hid her in that alley in the southern part of the city for six years. What horse was she riding?!
Princess Meatball, the original owner of this body, loved riding horses, but Guan Yingying didn't know how. Even if she managed to climb onto the horse now, she wouldn't be able to rein it in once it started running, and she'd probably fall off headfirst.
Now that I'm a princess, my good days have just begun, I can't die.
Thinking of this, she imitated Princess Meatball's domineering manner and said nonchalantly, "I'll only look at the horses, I won't ride them."
Lin Haohao tied the horse back up. Since the princess didn't want to ride, she decided to take her around to play.
That night, Princess Meatball favored Lin Haohao.
As they rolled around, Lin Haohao said, "Princess, some of the horses are getting old and need to be replaced. I would like to purchase a new batch."
"Okay, go and do it."
"It will probably cost 100,000 taels of silver," Lin Haohao said tentatively, looking at Princess Roudan.
He quoted a very high price; even a Ferghana horse wouldn't cost that much.
"Tell Shen Su that he will take care of it."
“But I don’t want to see him,” Lin Haohao said, using all his masculine charm to make Princess Roudan feel hot all over. “I just want the princess to pamper me personally.”
"good......"
The promise made in bed was stared at by Lin Haohao the next morning as soon as she woke up, her smiling eyes conveying, "You promised me, didn't you?"
Princess Meatball didn't have any silver notes with her, so she asked Chen Su for some.
Shen Su asked, "What does the princess need so many silver notes for?"
"Here..." Princess Meatball suddenly remembered that Lin Haohao had said Shen Su was jealous of his favored status and probably wouldn't support him.
So Princess Meatball didn't explain and said to Shen Su, "I need it."
She didn't want to say anything, but Shen Su couldn't disobey her mistress, so she gave the silver notes she had brought with her to Princess Rou Dan and said, "Princess, we don't have much silver left."
Princess Meatball thought, "If I can save money, I just need to get back to the capital."
No sooner had Princess Meatball left than Lin Haohao stared blankly at a stack of silver notes.
The princess has changed; not only can she not ride a horse, but she also seems to know nothing about horses!
It lacks the domineering presence and isn't as shrewd anymore.
More importantly, as a male concubine, he was very familiar with the princesses in bed.
A princess was once a princess, but nowadays, princesses are like... prostitutes!
When Princess Roudan returned to the capital, Jinling, who was on duty at the manor, was extremely anxious: "Your Highness, Lord Chengen has sent people to look for you several times."
