Chapter 198: The Arrogant Princess Ning Jia
Qianhuan was always worried about meeting the young master of the Minister of Personnel's Mansion again, so she would apply makeup on her face every day when she went out, and then wash it off when she came back, which was very troublesome.
One day, she heard the common people discussing that the son of the Minister of Personnel was too licentious and immoral, and had harmed many boys, and now he has been reported.
When the emperor learned about this, he was furious and in a rage, he exiled the son of the Minister of Personnel three thousand miles away.
The Minister of Personnel was also impeached for failing to educate his children, and the emperor demoted him.
When Qianhuan heard the news, she immediately felt relieved. That was great! She finally wouldn't have to put those things on her face anymore.
It was actually quite uncomfortable to apply those yellow things on the face, and they were not good for the skin. Now that that scourge would never appear in the capital again, she would no longer have to worry about being recognized and retaliated by him.
In fact, Qianhuan wanted to return to her girlish attire. She was now fourteen and a half years old and her body had grown. In the hot summer, she would always have to wrap a layer of bra around her chest when dressing as a man, which was really too stuffy and uncomfortable.
But she also knew that her current appearance was a little too eye-catching. When she first came to this era, this body was only 13 years old and had not yet fully grown. Although her facial features were pretty, they were not to the point of being stunningly beautiful.
In the past six months, she has not only grown 2 centimeters taller, but her face has also grown a lot.
The original owner's facial features were originally delicate and three-dimensional, and they became even more feminine and charming as she grew older. If she wore women's clothes, she would be even more breathtakingly beautiful.
Sometimes she even wondered if she was picked up by Liu. Why did her face look less and less like Liang Lao Er and Liu as she grew older?
There is nothing wrong with a woman being beautiful, but if a beautiful woman does not have enough ability to protect herself, then her beauty will bring disaster to herself.
Before she has enough strength, she can only choose to be low-key, low-key and low-key again. This is also a way to protect herself.
The Half-Day Qinghuan Garden was finally decorated, and Qianhuan set the opening date for two days later.
The servants also wore customized work clothes and aprons, and carried various kinds of tea and began to offer free tastings to people on the streets of the capital. Everyone was actively promoting the teahouse.
In the past six months, Qianhuan has also made a lot of scented teas suitable for women, such as rose tea, jasmine tea and so on.
Qianhuan also asked her servants to publicize the benefits of drinking various scented teas. For example, drinking rose tea regularly can beautify the skin, and jasmine tea can promote qi circulation, relieve depression, and refresh the mind, etc.
The publicity was very effective. Rich young men and women in Beijing began to rush to buy tables at Banri Qinghuan Garden.
Chi Ying also sent someone to reserve a table close to the stage for the prince.
Because there are so many dignitaries in the capital, if Qianhuan wants to reserve a table at her teahouse, she must report the name of her residence. In this way, she can not only quickly become familiar with the dignitaries in various mansions in the capital, but also does not have to worry about accidentally offending any of them.
General God of War has always been the dream lover of countless noble ladies in the capital. Upon learning that the Crown Prince was going to Banri Qinghuan Garden to drink tea and watch a play, the noble ladies in the capital sent their maids to rush to buy tables.
Princess Ning Jia, because she admired the prince, had always sent people to keep an eye on his every move. When she heard that the prince was going to Half-Day Qinghuan Garden to listen to an opera, she immediately took people to Half-Day Qinghuan Garden to reserve a seat.
Princess Ningjia arrived at Banri Qinghuan Garden and saw Master Cai sorting things at the counter.
Princess Ningjia walked up to Master Cai and said arrogantly, "Tell me, where is the seat reserved by General Ares? My table will be next to General Ares' table."
When Master Cai saw that she called herself a princess, he knew he couldn't afford to offend her, so he quickly signaled to the servant next to him to call Qianhuan to handle the matter.
Then he smiled and said, "Princess, the two seats next to the God of War General have been reserved. Why don't you choose another seat?"
Princess Ning Jia said unhappily, "Who reserved it? Ask him to give it up to me."
Qianhuan had already walked over, and she said to the princess, "Princess, once a table in our restaurant has been reserved by a customer, we cannot change it at will. Of course, as long as the customer agrees to change seats privately, our restaurant can agree. The seat to the left of the God of War General has been reserved by the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the seat to the right has been reserved by the daughter of the General of the Nation's Mansion. We cannot afford to offend these two ladies, so why don't you go and discuss changing the table with the two ladies yourself."
Qianhuan kicked the ball back. She couldn't afford to offend any of these noble ladies in the capital.
Princess Ning Jia said angrily, "It turned out to be these two bitches Zhao Yanran and Qian Yuying. They both booked a table next to Brother Yu's table. Could it be that they also want to snatch Brother Yu from this princess?"
The maidservant beside the princess said, "Princess, Qian Yuying has always liked the Crown Prince, so she probably has no feelings for the Crown Prince. But this Zhao Yanran, I've seen her staring at the Crown Prince's face in a daze every time she attends a palace banquet, so I guess she also admires the Crown Prince."
"Zhao Yanran, you bitch, don't even think about snatching Brother Yu from me. Send someone to tell Zhao Yanran that I want her table."
"Yes, I will arrange for someone to pass on the message right away."
When Zhao Yanran received the news from Princess Ning Jia's people, her face turned green with anger.
Her maid Bizhu also said angrily, "Miss, this Princess Ningjia is really too much. After all, you are the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the Empress is your aunt. You reserved the table first, and she just snatched it away. Otherwise, let's go to the palace and complain to the Empress."
"Princess Ning Jia is well-known for her tyranny in the capital. Her father, Prince Duan, is the only prince of a different surname in the capital. My aunt has always wanted to win over Prince Duan. Even if I go to complain, my aunt may not help me. She may even lecture me for being immature."
Bizhu was still very unconvinced, "So Miss, are we just going to let it go like this?"
"This Princess Ningjia is just relying on having a good father. She is actually a big idiot. It's just a seat at the table. If she likes it, just give it to her. Anyway, even if she is close to the prince, the prince will not even look at her."
"Miss, although that is the case, I still feel sorry for you. I just can't swallow this." Bizhu stood up for her young lady.
"It doesn't matter. Even though we can't deal with her, there are people who can." Zhao Yanran had a sly smile on her face.
Bizhu asked doubtfully, "Who are you talking about, Miss?"
"Bizhu, we haven't been to the palace to visit the Ninth Princess for a long time. Let's go to the palace to visit the princess today. By the way, tell the princess that an interesting teahouse has just opened in the capital. We originally reserved a table and wanted to invite the princess to drink tea and watch a play together, but unexpectedly, the table was taken by Princess Ningjia."
Bizhu suddenly realized, "Miss, you are really too smart. The Ninth Princess usually can't stand the arrogance of Princess Ningjia. We just need to complain to the Ninth Princess. With the princess' temper, she will definitely stand up for you, young lady."
"You are not so stupid now that you understand. Hurry up and help me change my clothes. Let's go to the palace together."
"Yes, ma'am."
