Chapter 195 After Rebirth, the Young Lady Will Marry a Dandy Man (8)
Unfortunately, what happened just now can only be what happened just now.
Xiao He called two guards over, and they dragged Ling Qian into the yard to be punished.
Ten blows may not seem like a lot, but as they were struck one by one and the miserable cries were heard, it seemed as if time had become very long.
Amidst the miserable cries, Shen Ci smiled contentedly. She glanced at Qinglu and said, "Come and tie my hair for me."
Qinglu witnessed how Lingqian was dragged away and beaten, and replied tremblingly: "Yes."
Then she slowly walked behind Shen Ci, picked up the jade comb on the ground, put it on the dressing table, took out a comb from the dressing box, and started to comb Shen Ci's hair.
She moved carefully and gently, fearing that she might accidentally anger Shen Ci and then punish her.
"Princess, how do you want your hair done?" With Lingqian in front, Qinglu asked before combing her hair.
Shen Ci is the master now. When you are doing the master's makeup, you should ask the master's opinion. You made the decision on your own without asking the master a single question. It would be strange if the master is not angry.
"I want to wear this and this today. What do you think I should wear with my hair?"
Shen Ci picked out a golden phoenix hairpin inlaid with gemstones and a golden swing with a pattern of two butterflies playing with a crabapple tree from her dressing box.
Just these two pieces were not enough, so Qinglu picked a few more and asked Shen Ci for his opinion: "These are also pretty good-looking. How do they match the two the princess picked?"
"Yeah." Shen Ci responded softly.
Qinglu took out some hair accessories and placed them on the dressing table.
Then he stood behind Shen Ci and looked at the bronze mirror carefully: "The two things the princess chose are more dignified. How about making a bun for the princess?"
Shen Ci nodded, but Qinglu didn't even breathe a sigh of relief and started to tie Shen Ci's hair.
She has served Yan Yun for many years and is very skilled in combing hair.
She tied her hair into a bun very beautifully, and after inserting some hair accessories into it, she immediately looked dazzling.
After combing her hair, it was time to put on makeup. Qinglu gave Shen Ci a dignified look, then went to the closet and took out several dresses that would match today's makeup for Shen Ci to choose from.
Shen Ci picked one at random, stood up, opened his arms, and let Qinglu Xiaohe help him dress.
"Is the ten great beatings over?" she asked.
Xiao He replied: "The screams have stopped, it should be over, Princess."
"Ask someone to send her some medicine. She doesn't have to serve me in the next two days, but you need to remind her to understand her status." Shen Ci said.
Xiao He nodded and said, "Yes."
Xiao He was not interested in what happened. She only knew that Ling Qian had done something wrong and angered the princess.
After breakfast, Shen Ci took a walk in the yard. She felt a little bored, so she ignored the maids' obstruction, picked up a discarded branch from under the tree, and started practicing along with the martial arts secrets she had exchanged.
She performed the gestures very skillfully, and the maids who were serving her quickly moved away.
The princess refused to listen, and they had no other choice but to let her make gestures. They just had to stay away from her and avoid getting hurt.
After practicing two moves, Shen Ci was very satisfied and felt that he was also very talented in martial arts.
After she finished learning this martial arts, she would go find a man to fight with.
Acupuncture, tying hands, tying feet, and then...
Shen Ci narrowed his eyes and suddenly hated the fact that he was using someone else's body.
Otherwise, she could just…tsk tsk.
While Shen Ci was driving in his mind, the young eunuch Renhe suddenly ran over.
"Your servant Renhe pays homage to the princess."
"Yeah." Shen Ci responded indifferently.
"Princess, the butler Eunuch Qian just came to say that the prince wants you to have dinner with him in the evening." Renhe said hurriedly.
Shen Ci raised his eyebrows when he heard this.
It has been cold for four days. Today, it is going to rain and my mother is going to get married? Is the weasel wishing a happy new year to the chicken?
Shen Ci held his chin with his hand, his eyes full of contemplation.
"Princess, I have a headache. Can I not go?" She raised her hand to support her head and suddenly said in a weak look.
A group of maids: "..." Princess, we are not blind. We all saw how lively you were just now.
"Explain the situation to the prince, and it will be fine as long as he agrees. But princess, are you sure you don't want to go?" You know, in other princes' palaces, those princesses would like to hear such a summons.
Shen Ci lowered his eyes, unable to make up his mind for a moment.
After the first day, she was a little angry. After so many days, when the man didn't come to see her, she became even angrier.
So now when the man calls her, she wants to leave him alone.
The system looked at this situation and suddenly started to sing: [At first you wanted to separate, so we separated. Now you have to use true love to call me back. Love is not something you can buy whenever you want...]
"Shut up." Shen Ci said coldly.
The system quickly apologized: [I'm sorry, I couldn't help it! The DNA moved!]
"How do you want to be beaten?" Shen Ci asked it.
The system suddenly changed the topic: [Host, business is more important. You should decide whether to go or not first.]
"It's rare for the prince to see me. Even if I'm too sick to get up, I'll go see him." Shen Ci said to Renhe.
"Then please prepare well, Princess." Renhe said.
What to prepare?
The ancient rules were about washing and dressing.
In ancient times, the emperor, princes, etc.'s visit to their wives and concubines was equivalent to the possibility of having them sleep with them.
So before meeting them, women must be well prepared.
Shen Ci was not prepared. He was still doing what he usually did at this time.
It’s not that she doesn’t want to sleep, but she’s afraid that men won’t dare to sleep.
Thinking of this, Shen Ci let out a light sigh.
It was getting dark, and Shen Ci was led to the main courtyard of the palace.
This could be said to be the first time Shen Ci had a meal in the main room of the palace since he entered it.
The prince’s mansion is so big that there are countless small courtyards outside the small courtyard.
Princess Shen Ci's courtyard has a special kitchen. She only needs to call for meals, and the food will be delivered to her main room in a short while. She doesn't have to go to the main courtyard of the palace to eat.
Zhou Zimu was in the same situation.
Therefore, this main courtyard is often used by guests on weekdays.
Chicken, duck, fish and meat were cooked into countless shapes and laid out on the table.
Shen Ci only likes to eat home-cooked meals, so she has no appetite for these fancy dishes.
It’s delicious, it’s still delicious, but it’s just not to Shen Ci’s taste.
So when the meal started, she ate very little and very slowly.
"Don't like it?" Zhou Zimu asked when he noticed that she had no appetite.
Shen Ci nodded: "Isn't it funny, Prince? I have already lived a good life, but I still only like home-cooked dishes."
"What does home-cooked food look like?" Zhou Zimu asked her.
"These are the dishes that we common people eat." Shen Ci said.
"The food in the Prince's Mansion has always been like this. If you don't like it, I will arrange a new chef for you."
