"Bai Zhi!"
"The servant is here, what's wrong, young lady?"
"Go to the Qin family and ask my second brother when he's free to leave the palace these next two days. Have him come to the palace to see me. I have something important to tell him. It's very important!"
"Yes! I'll go right away!"
Dugu Yu still had a conscience. He only confined Qin Qingyao and did not care about the servants and maids.
Bai Zhi ran to the Qin residence and quickly ran back, "Miss, Madam said that the Second Young Master will not be able to leave the palace before the sixth day of the new year."
Qin Qingyao's eyes widened in anger. "You won't even let me go home for the New Year? Is there any justice in the world?"
Bai Zhi shrank her neck at her yelling, "Miss, the New Year is coming soon, and the palace is very busy. The royal family has strict rules, and the Crown Prince has so many things to do that they're piling up. The fact that the Second Young Master can't leave shows that he's highly capable and valued!"
Qin Qingyao agreed that her second brother was very capable. When it came to observing rules, being reasonable, following ancestral rules, and drafting various documents, her second brother was definitely the best. But there was no way he was taken seriously!
She now suspected that the prayer that was lost by the pig-headed prince in the original novel was written by her second brother with great effort!
What should she do? Can she only sit at home and watch Ling Jingxuan succeed?
Absolutely not!
Because this matter is of great significance to the prince and the entire court!
If the prince's throne was eventually crushed by snowflakes, then the act of ancestor worship was like a hailstone hitting him on the head, a particularly large one!
Qin Qingyao bit her lower lip and thought for a long time. Suddenly, her eyes lit up. "Our party will start in two days. How are the invitations going?"
Baiji said, "According to your instructions, I have already sent them to the dignitaries in Yulin City. However, I don't know how many people will come."
"Go find two blank posts, I'm useful!"
"yes!"
Qin Qingyao took the blank invitation and asked someone to find Murong Ce.
"Master Military Advisor Murong, are you familiar with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
Murong Ce, "Not familiar."
"Then do you think Dugu Yu is familiar with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
"Maybe... not very familiar."
Qin Qingyao nodded, "That's good."
Murong Ce looked at her with amusement, "What does the princess want to do?"
"Hey," Qin Qingyao took out a blank post, "I want to send an invitation to the Crown Prince, but if I show up, not only will the Crown Prince probably not give me face, but it would also seem unreasonable, right?"
"So, I wanted to write a letter to the Crown Prince in the tone of my prince, but I can't write calligraphy, so I have to trouble you!"
Murong Ce and Dugu Yu are such good brothers, he should be very familiar with Dugu Yu's tone.
Moreover, she believed that Murong Ce would handle the details of the rules and etiquette very well and would never make any mistakes that would displease the prince.
Murong Ce twitched his lips. "Princess, do you want me to imitate the prince and write an invitation letter to the crown prince?"
This is too outrageous...
Qin Qingyao not only didn't think there was anything wrong, but also looked at him with an expression of 'Am I very smart?', "If I go directly to Dugu Yu, he definitely won't be able to write it. Please help me!"
Murong Ce was truly powerless to refute this statement. He also knew that Dugu Yu would definitely not write it...
"Okay then, I'll help you write it. But if the prince finds out, Princess, you have to take responsibility for me!"
Qin Qingyao patted Murong Ce's shoulder like a good brother, "Don't worry, even though my handwriting is not good, I am very loyal and will never betray you!"
Qin Qingyao crouched down and tiptoed with Murong Ce to Dugu Yu's study.
Study guards: "..."
Why did the princess bring Military Advisor Murong into the prince's study with an expression that said, "I'm here to do something bad," and a sneaky and obscene look?
So do they stop it or not?
Forget it. Seeing the princess hunched over so hard, just give her some face and pretend you didn’t see it.
I guess he was just trying to protest against being confined at home by the prince, so he went out to play a prank.
Qin Qingyao asked Murong Ce to sit down without any psychological barriers. Before today, no other man except Dugu Yu had ever sat in this position.
Qin Qingyao was like a hardworking little bee, helping to lay out the paper and grind it. "Do you need to think about it for a while, make a draft or something?"
Murong Ce, "No need."
After saying that, he picked up the pen and started writing.
After stopping writing, Qin Qingyao gave a thumbs-up with admiration, "It's so beautifully written!"
Murong Ce smiled and nodded, "You're welcome, Princess!"
Qin Qingyao did not avoid Murong Ce at all. She took out Dugu Yu's private seal from the secret compartment and slammed it heavily on the invitation.
Murong Ce was stunned the whole time.
Not only did she ask him to imitate her handwriting, but she also dared to stamp it without permission. This woman is really going to heaven...
Isn't she afraid that if the prince mentions it in front of Dugu Yu, everything will be exposed?
But this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that she actually exposed the place where Dugu Yu kept his private seal, such a valuable item, in front of an outsider.
Is she really stupid, or... is it just because she trusts him that she never thought of being on guard against him?
Qin Qingyao took the freshly baked invitation and happily put it back in her arms, "Thank you, Military Advisor Murong, you have helped the Crown Prince a lot!"
Murong Ce really couldn't help laughing this time, his shoulders were shaking.
He had already witnessed Qin Qingyao's ability to confuse right and wrong and talk nonsense when she was held hostage by the murderer that night.
Unexpectedly, seeing it again still amazed him and opened his eyes.
It was obvious that she wanted to invite the prince to add luster to her party and win face for her, but she had the audacity to say that she was doing the prince a great favor!
There is no other person in the world who has such shamelessness!
Qin Qingyao bent down again and took Murong Ce out, as if he had never been there.
The guard at the gate was also very polite and didn't say anything, as if he had never seen anyone coming.
After leaving the study, Qin Qingyao felt refreshed. "Grand Military Advisor, how was your dance rehearsal with Princess Anli going?"
Rehearsal? Ever since Qin Qingyao stopped going out, he hadn't been to Fenghuaxueyue either.
"It shouldn't be a problem."
Doesn't Princess Anli have any dignity? How could she allow herself to be humiliated on stage?
"What do you mean by 'should'? You're too careless. Are you trying to be lazy?"
Murong Ce, "..."
Qin Qingyao looked at the stunned Murong Ce, thinking that she was too polite and made him unhappy. She was afraid that he would quit, so she quickly changed her words, "I know, rehearsals every day are boring, and it's hard work as a military advisor, hehe..."
Murong Ce looked at Qin Qingyao's servile appearance and almost couldn't help but reach out and touch her head. "It's not hard. Don't worry, I promise I won't mess it up."
"Thank you very much! I'm sorry to have taken up your time, but go back to rehearsal, go!"
Murong Ce, "..."
Qin Qingyao was definitely the first person who dared to use him up and then kick him out, but never mind, he really didn't seem to mind at all.
When Dugu Yu returned home, Qin Qingyao was still busy rehearsing a stage play, so she completely forgot to tell him that she had used his private seal to write an invitation and asked the prince to bring Qin Yuelu out of the palace to attend her party.
He didn't even think of asking what Prince Duan had talked about all day.
After Qin Qingyao's yelling and training over the past few days, those actors who were shy and embarrassed at first finally understood that acting is a serious job.
I understood that I had the important mission of conveying the image of a tall and majestic soldier to the audience.
So each performance became more and more devoted, with precise movements and vivid expressions, and Qin Qingyao was very satisfied.
On the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, the Golden Crane Tower, the largest theater in Yulin City, was booked by Prince Wuling's Palace.
At first everyone knew that the host was the eldest son, but no one knew that it was not just the eldest son.
There was also a female host, who was one of the heroines in the eldest son’s romantic autobiography—Zuihonglou’s top prostitute Yaohua Ling!
"Dear gentlemen, ladies, masters, ladies, and parents, good evening!"
"I am the host, the suave and dashing young master!"
"I am the host, Guose Tianxiang Yaohua Ling!"
"Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend our first Spring Festival Gala!"
"On behalf of all Fenghuaxueyue employees, we wish you all a happy new year in advance!"
…
The opening song and dance is a group dance adapted by Qin Qingyao, Good Luck is Coming.
Performed passionately by the twenty girls from Zui Hong Lou.
Originally, Qin Qingyao wanted them to dance "Little Apple" to lead the trend of square dancing, but the lyrics were too straightforward. Even the playboy, the eldest son, found it hard to accept, so she gave up.
There were twenty girls, ten of them wearing big red dresses, jumping and skipping with their big skirts flying all over the sky, and the other ten had small waist drums tied around their waists, beating them happily.
The lively atmosphere that seemed to lift the roof off the house was something that no one present had ever seen before.
Unlike the graceful and soft songs and dances of Zhaoling Country, this is like a group of quiet little swans suddenly turning into flamingos being chased by their natural enemies.
The passionate and unrestrained long legs that filled the entire stage swung over as if they had no bones, and kicked back with a whoosh.
This opening was absolutely shocking and successful, but Qin Qingyao herself didn't have time to watch it.
When she saw that the prince really brought Qin Yuelu out, she quickly slipped over and pulled Qin Yuelu into the small compartment to talk in private.
After all, the prince is a very busy man, who knows if he will leave halfway.
"Second brother, have arrangements been made for the imperial court's New Year's Eve ceremony to worship the heavens and the royal family's New Year's Day ceremony to worship their ancestors?"
Qin Yuelu asked with a look of shock and strong disapproval, "Why do you, a girl, care about these things?"
"Oh, I'm not concerned about national affairs! You know I'm a playboy and a gossipmonger. I just heard some bad things!"
