The emperor finally spoke, coldly and solemnly, "Queen, don't worry, Princess Jing looked like this when she saw me for the first time. Jiang Qing reminded me twice before she remembered to kowtow to thank me!"
Ning Jingwan didn't dare to raise her head, "I'm sorry, my father, the emperor and the empress, please forgive me!"
The queen snorted coldly, but her words were gentle and kind, "Those who don't know are not guilty, so why is Jingwan guilty?"
Jingjing Wan raised her head and said, "Thank you, Queen Mother!"
The queen kept staring at Jing Wan, with an unpredictable smile in her eyes, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, I really like Jing Wan's temperament. Although she is a bit slow, she is still a child with a true temper. Since Jun Han has
If you're not in the palace, why don't you let Jingwan come to the palace more often to accompany the ministers and concubines?"
A little slow? Jingjing Wan was startled. She really should take a good look at herself. She actually looks a little slow!
The emperor looked at Ning Jing Wan, with a smile in his eyes, and nodded: "That's fine!"
The Empress suddenly stopped smiling and said, "Jingwan, you will come to Fengluan Hall more often to chat with me. I am also very interested in the strange people and things among the people. You can give me all of them."
Gong Dao said!"
Jing Jing Wan said: "Yes, I obey your order!"

After a long silence, Ning Jing Wan finally heard the instructions to step back. She breathed a sigh of relief. She was originally going to see the Queen Mother today, but the Queen Mother was unwell today and was recuperating in Chang'an Palace. Ning Jing Wan was also happy to have some leisure time.
It is better to do less than to do anything. After meeting the emperor and the queen, he went straight out of the palace under the leadership of the palace servants.

Linlang was a little anxious waiting at the palace gate. As soon as she saw the young lady coming out, she hurriedly greeted her, "Miss, is everything okay?"
Jingjing Wan ignored her, got on the carriage, and said calmly: "What can happen?"
Seeing that the young lady had her eyes closed and didn't want to speak, Linlang wisely shut up and said to the coachman: "Go back to Prince Jing's Mansion!"
Jingjing Wan suddenly opened her eyes, "Go to Ruyi Gambling House!"
Linlang was about to say something when he caught a glimpse of the lady's deep eyes and said, "Yes!"
_
Ruyi Gambling House is located in the south of the city and is the largest gambling house in Beijing.
Ning Jingwan took off her palace clothes in the carriage and put on simple clothes.
Letting Linlang wait outside, Ning Jingwan went inside by herself.
There were people everywhere, and the crowds were shouting, "Buy it, leave it, buy it, leave it!" and "It's open, it's open!" the voices kept coming and going. There were dozens of large gaming tables, and each one was crowded with people.
When Manager Chen of the gambling shop saw Ning Ning Wan coming, he was all smiles, "Miss Ning is here, do you want to play a few games today?"
Jingjing Wan smiled softly, "Of course, I want a private room!"
Manager Chen hurriedly said: "Young Master has already ordered us to come down. Miss Ning is invited upstairs!"
Jingjing Wan said lightly: "Thank you!"
"Hey, Miss Ning, you've broken my heart, how can I afford it?" Manager Chen always has a serious face towards others, but he can't be serious towards Ning Jing Wan no matter what.

Ning Jingwan came upstairs, and the hustle and bustle downstairs suddenly seemed to have disappeared, being left behind. Although they were so close, it seemed like two worlds.
Most of the people who come to gamble downstairs are ordinary people in the city. The chips they bet range from a few pennies to a few taels to more than a dozen taels. Most of them are ordinary people who come to try their luck and hope to have a chance.
But the situation upstairs is completely different. It is quiet and elegant. Just looking at the layout here, you would never have guessed that this is actually a gambling house.
The minimum stake for those who come to the second floor is one hundred taels. One hundred taels is enough to feed and clothe an ordinary family of ten for a year, and there is no need to scrimp!
It can be seen that the people who can come to the second floor are not short of money. They are thrill-seekers, princes, grandsons, and dignitaries in the capital. There are many people like this one.
