Chapter 127: Traveling through the Prince's Mansion 06
Nanny Gui skillfully made a bun for Gu Li, and inserted a butterfly-shaped jadeite hairpin and a Huasheng, tourmaline and seven-treasure exquisite hairpin.
Gu Li chose a pair of silver butterfly earrings, and Nanny Gui took a look and put them on her.
Nanny Gui also wanted to make Gu Li wear an elaborate and luxurious necklace, but Gu Li shook her head when she saw it, saying that it would be inconvenient for her to wear such jewels and precious stones.
Finally, Nanny Gui reluctantly replaced the pendant with a precious jade pendant wrapped in gold thread and asked Gu Li to wear it.
In short, Aunt Gui really dressed her up as if she were a girl in her teens, making her look as noble as possible.
But no matter how much Gu Li acted like a child, her face was no longer like a child. She had already reached the age of marriage, and girls of her age who were anxious to be married were already married.
Nanny Gui looked at Gu Li in the mirror. She had a standard oval face, a round complexion, a pair of bright and smiling eyes. When she sat quietly and dignifiedly, she looked like the daughter-in-law most loved by the aristocratic family.
"Miss, you are so beautiful!"
"Hahaha, I think so too." Gu Li ruined the beautiful image of the beauty sitting in the mirror as soon as she opened her mouth.
Nanny Gui smiled helplessly, turned around and asked the maid to come in and clean the room.
At the farm, Liu Baijiao was drinking and having fun with a few playboys he usually got along well with.
Lin Shendai leaned behind the table and looked at Liu Bojiao, who was being served wine by maids in the main seat. He smiled and joked, "Your Highness really knows how to enjoy life. It's so suitable to take a hot spring bath in winter. If Qionghua and the others could come together for a bathing party, I wonder how happy it would be."
Liu Baijiao had long noticed that Lin Shendai had looked at Wan Feng who was leaning against his side more than once, but playing aside, Liu Baijiao was a man with his own principles.
He could play however he wanted in the brothel, but he was unwilling to lend out his own woman, even if she was a concubine of a lower status, to his friends for fun.
You can play, but only as a gift.
Liu Baijiao glanced at Wan Feng, who immediately leaned towards him and called him in a whisper, "Prince~"
The ending tone is gentle, with a hint of pleading and reluctance.
He put his big hand into the hem of her skirt and moved it all the way up. Feeling the trembling of the body under his hand, he smiled.
He hasn't had enough fun yet, so this can't be given away. "If Brother Lin is bored, I'll ask someone to go to Baihua Tower and invite a few prostitutes to keep him company!"
Lin Shendai laughed out loud, then turned to talk to Wan Baolai and Wei Min beside him. They didn't know what they were talking about, and they kept laughing from time to time.
Liu Baijiao had no intention of dealing with his friends below, as his body had already sensed it. He squeezed the soft flesh under his hand, causing Lai Wanfeng to moan involuntarily. Only then did he look at the other side, where the prince of Duke Dingguo's mansion, Chu Yansheng, was drinking calmly, with satisfaction.
"Young Master, let's go take a hot spring bath together?"
Chu Yansheng put down his wine glass, glanced at the people struggling against each other, and said uninterestedly: "I still prefer the wine on your farm. There's no need to take a hot spring bath."
There were already several empty wine jugs in front of his table. Leng Baipi's lips were cherry red because he had drunk a lot of wine. He gave a casual perfunctory smile, and he looked indescribably evil.
Liu Baijiao was already used to this man's unsociable nature, so he just said that they were at his manor and people could drink as much wine as they wanted. Then he let two servants support him and took Wan Feng to the back.
Liu Baijiao was a prince after all, so why should he explain whether to go or stay to a prince who had not yet inherited the title?
It's because he is just a prince in name only, while Chu Yansheng is the Duke of Dingguo and a general who once commanded an army of 200,000 in the Great Yan Dynasty.
The eldest daughter of Duke Dingguo was the Imperial Noble Consort, second only to the Empress in the palace. The Duke Dingguo took the initiative to hand over his military power the year the Imperial Noble Consort gave birth to the prince, thus allaying the Emperor's fears.
The Chu family could not tolerate the fact that both military power and government affairs were in the hands of the Chu family.
However, the eldest son had been training with him at the border since he was a child, and had already been given the title of junior general in the army. In order to continue staying in the army, the eldest son Chu Xiaoling took the initiative to resign from the position of crown prince, moved out of the Duke's Mansion, and lived in another mansion.
The emperor did not want to miss out on Chu Xiaoling, a capable general, and agreed to the Chu family's practice of dividing the palace but not the family.
As a result, the position of the Crown Prince of the Duke of Dingguo's Mansion was transferred from the eldest son to the youngest son, Chu Yansheng, who was neither talented in literature nor in martial arts.
In fact, there was another reason why the emperor agreed so readily.
That is, Chu Xiaoling was born to Duke Dingguo's original wife, while Concubine Chu and Chu Yansheng were born to his second wife. It was rumored that Chu Xiaoling followed his father to the battlefield at the age of fifteen because he did not get along with his stepmother, and he did not return home for many years.
Now Chu Xiaoling has set up another mansion outside, which can be regarded as sharing power with Duke Dingguo.
The current Prince of Dingguo has been a rogue since he was young, and naturally he will become a playboy when he grows up.
He competed with others for women in brothels, ran rampant on the streets, and fought with others over trivial matters.
His reputation is worse than Liu Bojiao's.
Liu Bojiao knew how to cover up and had to maintain the reputation of the royal family; but Chu Yansheng was not like that. He had always been flamboyant and willful, and if you made him angry, he would dare to beat anyone.
I don’t care whether the other person is a prince or a prince.
At most, I'll get a beating from him when he gets home, but he'll be able to sneak out in two days and continue to act ridiculously.
He had the support of Duke Dingguo in the court and his elder sister, the imperial concubine, in the harem. Apart from the imperial palace, he could almost do whatever he wanted in Kyoto.
The playboys in Kyoto are also divided into different levels. Chu Yansheng can get along with all of them, but he doesn't seem to be out of place.
In short, he can play with whoever he wants, depending on his mood.
Gu Li and the girl from Baihua Tower arrived at the manor almost at the same time.
Nanny Gui stared at the group of charming women in front of her with a cold face, and felt that the Prince of Yongping was simply making a fool of himself.
Having just been reprimanded by the emperor, he is now hiding in the manor to seek pleasure. This is simply inappropriate.
Gu Li only felt that Nanny Gui, who was supporting her, was walking slower and slower, and soon she was quite a distance behind the team in front.
"Mammy, who are those sisters? They wear so little in winter, aren't they cold?" Although they were all wearing cloaks, the rippling hems of their gauze skirts were clearly visible at the hem.
Especially now, those girls dressed in colorful clothes took off their cloaks as soon as they went up to the corridor, revealing the thin clothes they would only wear in spring and autumn, and went into the rooms on the side one by one, laughing and playing.
Gu Li poked her head out, and Aunt Gui just felt a headache.
Various palace rules and regulations were running through Nanny Gui's mind. She grabbed Gu Li's arm and advised, "Miss, let's not go into this place. Let's go back first."
"Why? I don't want to go back. I'm alone in the Prince's Mansion. It's too boring. I want to go play with my cousin and those sisters."
Veins on Nanny Gui's forehead were throbbing, but she remembered what the emperor had told her, that as long as she ensured Miss Gu's safety, she could do whatever she wanted with the rest.
Gu Li ignored Nanny Gui's hesitation, she shook her off and ran forward.
"Cousin, cousin, here I come!"
Just as Liu Baijiao touched the beauty's slender waist, he heard a sudden shout. His hand on the slender waist trembled, and he turned his head to look at the door.
