Chapter 178 The Secret of the Silly Princess
Chapter 178 The Secret of the Silly Princess
Wu Meizhu lay on the large and comfortable bed, looking at the pink gauze curtains above her head, thinking about her worries.
Compared to that impoverished border village, the luxurious life in the Qin Palace was extremely comfortable. But the prosperity of the outside world was too far away, and it was impossible to see, touch, or enjoy it.
The King of Qin's attitude towards her was chilling. Although the silly princess would occasionally let her sing a few songs and provide her with exquisite food, clothing and daily necessities, she was unwilling to share her extremely noble and affluent life with her.
No! If you continue like this, you will be like a canary kept in a luxurious cage, with only delicious food to eat but no freedom and a bright future.
In addition to the King of Qin, there are so many young, beautiful and noble princes in the Song Dynasty! Why would he hang himself on a tree in the King of Qin's mansion?
If I have the chance to hook up with another prince, with my talent and my mind that is more than a thousand years old, won't I be spoiled and have everything I want? Maybe with great luck, the prince I hook up with will become the emperor in the future, and I, Wu Meizhu, will become the empress or imperial concubine of the Song Dynasty!
Wu Meizhu felt a burning sensation in her heart!
After the death of the current emperor, which prince ascended the throne, Wu Meizhu, who had not studied history well, did not know. But even if she attached herself to an ordinary prince, she would have an extremely noble status and enjoy endless wealth and glory.
But how can I hook up with other princes? It is a difficult problem to be unable to leave the Qin Palace.
Yingchun sat at the table in the main room, watching Wu Meizhu in the inner room while carefully checking the account book of the palace that Ruhua gave her. Sister Ruhua was busy every day, and after teaching her how to do the accounts, she left the accounts of the palace alone.
Yingchun was also very busy every day. She would take advantage of Wu Meizhu's nap to take out the account book that had to be completed for the day. After finishing it, she would give it to Sister Ruhua for review, and then help supervise the servants who were growing vegetables in Guanqiong Garden.
Wanqiu, who was on duty with her to monitor Wu Meizhu, admired Yingchun while helping her grind ink.
"Sister Yingchun, you have finished two books of accounts in such a short time. The accounting method taught by the princess is really brilliant and wonderful."
Yingchun smiled and nodded, whispering: "You, an illiterate person, have figured out the trick?
Sister Ruhua taught me this method. We have so many discrepancies in the accounts of the Qin Palace. Using this accounting method, it is ten times faster and extremely accurate.
Our princess is truly a rare talent in the world!"
Wu Meizhu, who was pretending to be asleep in the inner room, heard the whispers of the two maids in the outer room. She couldn't believe it. Could that silly princess have any magical skills?
She got up, quietly got out of bed, and tiptoed out of the inner room.
When Wu Meizhu saw the Arabic numerals in the boxes on the account book that Yingchun spread out on the table, her eyes widened in shock!
[How could it be possible? How could people in this era know how to use Arabic numerals to keep accounts?
Was this taught by the silly princess? Then she...】
Wu Meizhu was so shocked that she was shaking all over, her heart was pounding! The veins on her hand holding the door frame were bulging because of excessive force.
"Wu Meizhu, you don't want to sleep? Do you want to take a walk in Guanqiong Garden or practice singing in the yard?" Yingchun looked up and saw Wu Meizhu standing at the door. She quickly closed the account book, stood up and asked.
Wu Meizhu couldn't suppress her pounding heart, and swallowed hard several times before she calmed down.
Her voice was a little trembling: "I...I want to go to Guanqiong Garden for a walk."
Yingchun put the account books on the table into the cloth bag and said, "Wanqiu and I will go with you."...
Luo Li was in front of the vegetable garden in Guanqiong Garden, directing several servants and maids to water and weed.
: "These cabbages only need to be planted one foot apart, and they will be tied up in a few days. Water the peppers and cucumbers again today, and in a few days, it will be time to build a greenhouse for them."
Wu Meizhu came here with Yingchun and Wanqiu, hurried forward, and bowed to the silly princess sitting in front of the vegetable patch!
"Princess, you have planted such a large area of various vegetables here, and they are growing well. We don't have to buy vegetables in the winter in the palace." Wu Meizhu put on a flattering smile and said flatteringly.
Luo Li, who was sitting on a rattan chair, crossed her legs and swung them comfortably. "Wu Meizhu, you live in the countryside farming with your parents. Do you know how to grow vegetables?"
"I don't understand this. I only learned elegant and useful skills from the fairy Chang'e. If you want to eat food, just buy it with money."
[What a useless piece of trash! Apart from letting her sing a few songs from that world, he is of no use at all. ]
"Sing a few songs for me! Let me relax for a while after my work." Luo Li ordered.
[What are you working for? You sit comfortably on a rattan chair, eating snacks and drinking tea while watching others work. You still have the nerve to say that it is your spare time from work?] Wu Meizhu complained in her heart.
On his face was a respectful and humble smile: "Princess, can I sing "Gentle Breeze and Drizzle" for you?"
Wu Meizhu is full of confidence. She is called Little Teresa Teng by her classmates in the art school.
Seeing the silly princess nodded, Wu Meizhu opened her red lips and said, "The breeze blows the floating clouds, and the drizzle slowly falls to the ground. It drenches me and you, and the drenching world is full of poetry...."
Although Wu Meizhu's voice was not sweet enough, her breath was not long enough, and she was a bit pretentious and showed off her skills, this familiar melody and lyrics still made Luo Li feel very close to it. She tapped the beat with her toes and hummed along in her heart.
Wu Meizhu sang with all her might while secretly observing the silly princess' reaction.
The perfect beat of the silly princess's toes is exactly the melody of this song.
After singing "Gentle Breeze and Drizzle", Wu Meizhu volunteered to sing "A Curtain of Dreams".
: "I have a dream, but I don't know with whom I can share it. There are so many secrets in it, but no one can understand them..."
This song was also Luo Li's favorite. In her previous life, although she was plain-looking, she had a good voice. During school, her singing was the most popular program at the campus party.
If her family had not been poor, she would have applied to a music college with the dream of becoming a singer.
Luo Li leaned back in her chair, closed her eyes slightly, and couldn't help but hum along...
"It's getting darker outside the window, the dew is heavy, tonight the fallen flowers have become a grave, spring has come and gone without a trace, leaving only a curtain of dreams. Who can understand my feelings, who will plant my tender love deeply, if we can know each other and meet again, we can share this curtain of dreams..."
After singing two songs, Wu Meizhu's heart was in turmoil! She tried her best to control her ups and downs and tried to make a natural expression.
She was already certain that this silly princess was also a soul that had traveled from the 21st century.
[No wonder the silly princess was a fool with a brain disease, but she was able to tinker with perfume, shampoo, soap, toothpaste, toothbrush and other items, and opened a "Anxiang Xiren" shop to make a lot of money.
Why did she travel through time and space and become the daughter of Luo Xueshi's mansion? Relying on her status as a powerful noble, she married the King of Qin and enjoyed the wealth and splendor of the top powerful nobles!
However, I am a genuine second-generation official, but I traveled through time and space and became a poor girl of lowly status in a tenant family in a remote countryside. I have suffered poverty and hardship in the past year!
Didn't the King of Qin ignore me because he didn't know a pearl? I, Wu Meizhu, must find a prince of noble status to hook up with. Maybe I can become the most noble queen of the Song Dynasty in the future!
There is no room for two tigers in one mountain, except one male and one female!
I, Wu Meizhu, and the silly princess cannot coexist in this world. I will find a chance to expose your true face, have you nailed to a pillar and burned to death as a demon, and have your soul thrown into the eighteen levels of hell! 】
Luo Li closed her eyes slightly, still immersed in the beautiful melody of "A Curtain of Dreams", and immersed in the scene when she sang this song at the campus party.
Yingchun saw Wu Meizhu's eyes moving around and reminded her, "Princess, do you still want to listen to Wu Meizhu sing? If you have heard enough, we will send her back to Tingfeng Pavilion."
Luo Li didn't open her eyes, afraid that the sad tears in her eyes would flow out, she just waved her hand! "I don't want to listen anymore, send her back!"
Wu Meizhu was supervised by Yingchun and Wanqiu and returned to Tingfeng Pavilion, where she threw herself onto the bed.
I tried to control my pounding heart, but my mind was spinning rapidly.
If I want to get close to the princes of the Song Dynasty, how can I find the opportunity?
