Chapter 203 Private Visit on Weibo
The palace maids who were originally guarding the carriage walked to the carriage and placed a soft stool next to the carriage.
At this moment, the curtain inside the carriage was lifted, revealing a beautiful and elegant face. Anyone who had seen this face would recognize that this person was the Eldest Princess. Today, the Eldest Princess was dressed in a yellow robe, looking dignified and noble.
She stepped down from the carriage, and a palace maid carefully supported her wrist.
The princess put her hand on the palace maid's, and with her delicate embroidered shoes on the stool, she slowly stepped onto the stone slab.
As soon as the princess stepped off the carriage, she looked up at the tea shop and the plaque above her head and couldn't help but sigh, "There are so many people."
She whispered these words to herself, then turned to the people in the carriage and said, "Cha Yunhe has arrived. Please get off the train."
The princess's words, though neither particularly significant nor insignificant, were heard by both those inside the carriage and the people surrounding it.
The people standing on the street corner were all taken aback when they heard her ask the people in the carriage to get off in such a polite manner.
Who exactly is in the carriage? How could they elicit such a gentle and polite tone from the esteemed Princess?
Before the people on the street corner could even wonder what was going on, the people inside the carriage seemed to have heard a sound and then reached out to lift the curtain.
Then a man crawled out from inside.
Everyone took a closer look.
This man appeared to be much older than the princess. He was dressed in luxurious everyday clothes, had a black beard, and looked very dignified.
Once you meet his eyes, you can see the unfathomable depth in his dark eyes; one glance is enough to make you hesitate to look a second time.
After the middle-aged man got off the carriage, a woman emerged from inside.
The woman appeared to be older than the princess. She exuded an air of elegance and nobility. She was quiet and dignified, her hands originally crossed in front of her abdomen, but she reached out her hands before getting off the carriage and, with the help of a middle-aged man, stepped down from the carriage.
The woman's eyes looked bright and gentle, making it hard not to take a second look.
At this moment, the eldest princess was already standing beside the two of them. She complained to the man in a low voice, "I told you to come alone in a carriage, but you insisted on squeezing into a carriage with us!"
The eldest princess was indignant. She had originally planned to ride in the same carriage with her sister-in-law and have a private chat along the way, but she never expected that her brother would want to ride in the same carriage with both of them.
"Is their identity confidential?"
The eldest princess knew he was making excuses and saying that on purpose, but even if she knew his reasons, she couldn't say it outright.
However, the fact that the two of them came to Tea Garden and Listen to Storytelling was truly unexpected for the Princess.
When the eldest princess received the news that Cha Yunhe was going to hold a special storytelling performance of "The Little Chef of Jinchao", she quickly sent her servants to Cha Yunhe and asked her to reserve a superior private room for her.
Unexpectedly, the Emperor somehow found out that she had gone out to visit Cha Yunhe today.
What surprised her even more was that her elder brother, the emperor, was very interested in this storytelling performance.
However, as the emperor, it was inconvenient for him to reveal his true identity, so he disguised himself as a nobleman and had the eldest princess take them to Chayunhe.
When the eldest princess heard that her sister-in-law was also coming, she readily agreed.
Even when the emperor travels incognito and changes into ordinary clothes, he still has to send extra people to protect the emperor and empress. So today, the princess's carriage is surrounded by guards as if it were an iron barrel.
The words of the eldest princess and the emperor were not heard by outsiders because they spoke very softly.
In the short time they were talking, Cha Yunhe's manager immediately came to his senses, and tremblingly bowed his back, walking up to the princess in a subservient manner.
"See Your Highness the Princess."
"No need for formalities, please lead us to a private room."
"It's the princess!"
The steward led the princess into the teahouse.
Meanwhile, those in the shadows were speculating about the identities of the two people the princess had brought with her, but none of them could guess who these two were that the princess treated with such courtesy.
The three entered the teahouse.
The teahouse, which was originally packed with people, is now quieter in the lobby. The wooden stage is still empty, and the storytelling has not yet begun.
However, half the people in the lobby were gone; it seemed that the waiters in the teahouse had quickly cleared some people out.
The lobby had been cleared to create a path.
The three of them, the eldest princess, the emperor, and the empress, were led by the steward and went up to the superior private room on the second floor without any hindrance.
As soon as the princess and her entourage entered the private room, they were surrounded by heavily armed guards at the entrance, and the two sword-wielding guards at the entrance looked even more formidable.
The waiters passing by didn't dare to approach.
The downstairs area became lively again after the princess entered the private room.
Apart from the heavy guard outside, only a few palace maids and eunuchs remained inside.
The eunuchs also wore ordinary clothes that were no different from those of ordinary people. As long as they did not speak, no one would know that these men were eunuchs.
As soon as she took her seat, the princess turned to look at the steward.
"I heard your teahouse has recreated some of the dishes from the folk tales?"
"Yes, Your Highness!" The steward didn't dare to raise his head and could only answer with his head down.
The three people inside the room exchanged glances upon hearing the steward's words.
It seems Ye Yuwu has found potatoes and sesame seeds.
Now all three of them were getting restless.
"Then bring out all the newly produced delicacies!" The princess waved her hand dismissively, not even glancing at the dishes listed on the wooden plaque handed to her by the steward.
The steward nodded, cupped his hands in greeting, and immediately agreed.
The eldest princess glanced at the steward who was still standing there, her brows furrowing imperceptibly. It seemed that the steward had no intention of leaving.
The eldest princess knew that this was not the time to leave the steward alone to "serve" them, since they still had things to talk about, and it was inconvenient for the three of them to talk with the steward in the room.
So the eldest princess waved for him to leave.
After the steward respectfully withdrew, he immediately instructed his subordinates to prepare the dishes.
The door was closed, and the princess could no longer hold back her words.
"Brother, do you think Ye, cough, and Wuming really found those two things?"
"Yanran, what's the rush? You'll find out when the food is served."
The emperor was no longer as excited as before. Instead, he calmed down, opened his folding fan with a "whoosh," and leisurely fanned himself, looking quite content.
The eldest princess had read the storybook before she arrived, so she naturally knew what these two items meant, and she couldn't sit still.
“Brother, how can Yanran not be anxious? Not to mention that sesame produces a lot of oil, the book describes potatoes as having the advantages of high yield and being able to grow even in dry fields. I can’t wait to see them. According to the book, potatoes taste delicious, which Yanran has never tasted before.”
The eldest princess pouted in dissatisfaction.
No wonder the eldest princess was so excited; when the emperor saw these words, his eyes widened in astonishment.
