"It's because the material looks good." Mingruo replied matter-of-factly.
"Ha." This princess is sincere.
Si Haochen shook out the folded pajamas. The cotton-padded clothes were sky blue, with lotus patterns embroidered on the collar and cuffs with silver thread. It also came with a belt with the same pattern. To say it was pajamas, it was more
Like a piece of clothing.
"Is this the pajamas you designed?" Si Haochen asked with some uncertainty.
"It should be called a pajamas. I changed into pajamas in the dormitory. If I want to read or write, wearing this is more convenient than wearing outer clothes."
"Yeah." After Mingruo's explanation, Si Haochen found that this nightgown was very practical.
"Your Majesty, I want to discuss a business with you." Mingruo secretly observed Si Haochen's expression. Fortunately, he did not refuse, but showed that he was willing to hear the details, "I want to open a shop selling rouge and gouache.
A clothing and jewelry shop. I will provide the formulas and drawings for these things. If the prince can send reliable manpower, how about we share the proceeds from the shop fifty-fifty?"
Si Haochen really didn't pay attention to the 50% profit of a store, so he just arranged for manpower to be given to her. However, what if the princess has a lot of money and wants to run away: "Okay."
Huh? You agreed so easily? Mingruo was quite surprised.
"Let Butler Zhou arrange who you need and how many."
"Okay." Mingruo smiled, her eyes like two crescent moons.
"Is there anything else?" Si Haochen asked.
"No more." Mingruo's mind was spinning rapidly, and the implication of Si Haochen's words was, just see the guests off if you have nothing to do.
Just as Ming Ruo was about to leave, he heard Si Haochen say: "Play chess with me."
"Oh." His brain circuit was indeed different from Si Haochen's.
Si Haochen took out the chessboard from under the tea table. The black and white chess pieces in the chess case were made of high-quality black jade and white jade, and were gentle to the touch.
Ming Ruo was taught Go by Senior Brother Seven. As the saying goes, the quality of chess is like character. Senior Brother Seven was a gentle man like jade. He taught Ming Ruo to play chess steadily and steadily. But Si Haochen's chess style was different. He was decisive and decisive all the way.
If we say this is a battle, it is definitely a battle of war and strength... people are on their backs and their horses are overturned...
Of course, it is Si Haochen's white piece who is the one who fights and fights with iron horses, and it is Ming Ruozhi's black piece who is the hero.
"I lost." Mingruo exhaled. At the end of the game, Mingruo's thought was - die early and be reborn.
"Not bad." Si Haochen praised him sincerely. It was rare to be able to play a game of chess with him for so long. At least, he was better than Bai Shen.
"Haha." Mingruo was lying on the table pretending to be a dog leash, which Si Haochen looked down upon.
"Sleepy?"
"It's too warm here, making me sleepy." Ming Ruo refused to admit that playing chess with him consumes too many brain cells, which is why he is like this.
"I'll take you to see something." Si Haochen led Mingruo to the backyard.
Si Haochen pushed open the door of a palace and saw a green grassland. There were some rocks stacked near the wall and tree trunks were arranged. A pair of blue peacocks were walking leisurely on the grass, and the sunlight filtered through the roof.
When illuminated by the bright tiles, it looks like a greenhouse used to grow rare flowers and plants in later generations.
"It was brought back from southern Yunnan." Si Haochen handed Mingruo a small bamboo basket containing shelled grains.
Mingruo grabbed a handful of grains and sprinkled them on the grass. Two peacocks came over to peck at them: "This... isn't it good to raise wild animals?"
"It has been domesticated by humans for some time. It is not wild and will not hurt anyone." Si Haochen reached out and stroked the peacock's feathers to prove to Mingruo that they were not aggressive.
"..." This dear friend, that's not what I meant. Well, she was out of her mind when talking to the ancients about wildlife protection.
"After winter, you can raise it in the yard." Si Haochen frowned slightly, but she was not as surprised as expected.
"Shouldn't there be cranes in the plum forest?" Mingruo thought for a while, "Plum wives, cranes, and so on..."
"Plum wife and crane son... what kind of allusion is this?" Si Haochen thought this word was very fresh.
"Ha..." Mingruo scratched his head. This allusion was a story from the Song Dynasty. Si Haochen didn't know that it was normal. "Ahem, it means that in ancient times, there was a hermit who lived in the mountains. He took plums as his wife and cranes as his wife.
As a son, he is very calm and elegant."
"Oh..." Si Haochen deliberately prolonged his tone, "Which book did you read this from?"
"Hmm... I don't remember..." I read it from the "Idiom Dictionary", but even if I tell you, you don't know...
The princess herself is very knowledgeable. Not to mention the women in the boudoir, I am afraid that the Hanlin Academy may not be as good as her: "Does the Nanrong royal family raise you as a prince?"
Um... Princess Qinghuang's vest is about to fall off? Quickly save it: "It's not that exaggerated. It's just that I read a few more miscellaneous books in my free time."
Si Haochen agrees with this. She really likes reading and can read any book.
"It's getting late, I have to go back..." It's better to run away quickly.
Looking at Ming Ruo's hurried away figure, Si Haochen raised the corners of his lips. She was completely different from the cowardly and timid Princess Qinghuang who had been secretly investigated. Was it because she hid her edge when she was in Nanrong, or was it because she was in Nanrong?
What adventure did Donghuan have...
Mingruo breathed a sigh of relief after running out of Meiyuan.
Zi Su caught up with him panting: "Princess, why are you walking so fast?"
"It's nothing." Mingruo ran too fast just now, and now he walked slowly to adjust his breathing. "If you walk slowly, it will get dark after a while."
It's dusk now, and the setting sun has cast a crimson color on everything in the world, making it very warm and beautiful.
Camellia trees were planted on both sides of the road outside Meiyuan. They were not only green now, but also had small flower buds. Mingruo was about to go over and take a look when he saw a figure dwarfing.
Mingruo was startled and blurted out: "Who is there!"
The people who were originally hiding in the bushes heard this sound and hurriedly ran away in the distance. Chusan tapped his toes and chased after him a few times, and then screamed: "Ah..."
It sounded like a woman's voice. Mingruo patted his chest. The third grade of junior high school probably hit that person directly.
On the third day of the third year of junior high school, he brought a person wearing an autumn fragrant-colored skirt and threw it directly on the ground. This was the uniform attire of the rough servants in the palace.
The maid huddled up in a ball and trembled: "Princess, please forgive me..."
Ming Ruo couldn't help but frown. She was not so close just now, so she recognized herself as the princess? Moreover, if she didn't do anything, she wouldn't have shouted for mercy as soon as she came up.
The maid lowered her head, and Zisu couldn't recognize where she was working: "Which yard do you belong to, and what are you doing sneakily there?"
"Slave...Slave..." The maid's voice was trembling, "I'm here...to cut the flower branches for vases..."
