A worker with a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan travels back in time to ancient times and becomes a pri

"I've heard that Miss Wei is well-educated, talented, and proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Why don't you let Miss Wei play a piece for us to enjoy today?" Fang Muyao suddenly stood up and said.

Xia Taoyuan sneered in his heart, this was really a case of bringing up something that was not relevant.

The other people all looked at her. She smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Miss Fang. I used to be able to write and draw, and I could also play a few tuneless songs. But since I broke my hand last year, I haven't done these things. My hand looks fine, but I have internal injuries. My writing and drawing are not as good as before, so..." As she spoke, her expression became more and more sad.

At this time, Zhu'er came over and comforted her, "Miss, it's all over." Then she turned to several people and said, "Our young lady used to love painting the most. Her old paintings are still kept in her boudoir. Last year, she accidentally rolled down the stairs due to illness and broke her right hand. From then on, she could no longer write or paint, let alone play the piano. Because of this, the young lady has been sad for a long time." The implication was that our young lady was very sad because of this, and you should not force her anymore.

Xia Taoyuan was secretly delighted. Zhu'er was a quick-witted girl who covered up the problem in just a few words.

The princess felt a little guilty and said, "Zhiying has an old injury on her hand, so we won't make things difficult for her. Anyang, you play the piano well, why don't you play a song for everyone?"

Fang Muyao didn't know what to say when she heard the princess say that. She was not only proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also quite talented. She wanted to defeat Wei Zhiying and embarrass her, but she didn't expect that she refused because of an old injury.

Princess Anyang sat down in front of the zither and began to play.

The sound of the piano was deep and far-reaching, and it was gentle and pleasant to the ear. Xia Taoyuan was intoxicated by the sound, but when she looked up, she saw Fang Muyao's resentful gaze. Seeing Xia Taoyuan looking at her, Fang Muyao immediately turned her head to the side.

Xia Taoyuan remained calm and didn't say anything. She just drank her tea silently.

Princess Anping and everyone else were having a great time playing the piano, painting, and playing chess. Xia Taoyuan just sat there as a spectator, feeling quite free and easy.

In the evening, Xia Taoyuan wanted to go back, but the princess tried to keep her, saying that the prince consort and his friends would come in the evening, and she had also notified the third child to come, so that everyone could have a good time. In this case, Xia Taoyuan said nothing more, and waited for Chu Xingluo to come and leave with him.

The princess brought a few people to the back garden. The lotus flowers were in full bloom, and the refreshing fragrance filled the air. Xia Taoyuan couldn't help but think of her and Chu Xingluo's peach garden. A sweet feeling rose in her heart, and a smile appeared on her face.

A few people were chatting and laughing when a maid came to call them to eat. They returned to the living room and just sat down when a servant came to report: "Princess, there are a few people at the gate of the other courtyard, asking for a drink of water."

The princess smiled and said, "You still have to ask me about such trivial matters? Just give it to them."

The servant took the order and left. After a while, he came back. The princess asked, "Anything else?"

The servant said, "Those people must thank the princess. I told them that the master was not in a position to meet them, but they refused to leave."

The princess was a little surprised. Logically, it was just a few bowls of water, so there was no need to thank them. Could these people have any purpose? But then she thought about it. In addition to a few servants in the courtyard, she also brought more than ten guards. She smiled and said, "In that case, let them in. Don't reveal your identity."

After a while, the servant led a few people into the hall. There were five people in total, three of whom were dressed luxuriously and looked very dignified, and the other two looked like servants from their attire.

The middle-aged man in the lead stepped forward and stood in front of the princess, clasping his hands and saying, "I guess the young lady is the owner of the manor. Thank you for the water, we have no way to repay you, so I offer you these silver coins, I hope you will accept them."

As soon as he finished speaking, a man came forward and respectfully handed over a bag of silver with both hands.

The princess smiled and said, "It's just a few bowls of water. You don't have to be polite. Please take back your silver."

The middle-aged man said seriously: "The girl may think it's just a few bowls of water, but to us it's a life-saving spring."

Then the middle-aged man said that they were from Yunzhou, and heard that Yunjun City was extremely prosperous, so they wanted to do business in Yunjun City. Because it was their first time here, they were not familiar with the road and took the wrong road, which delayed them for several days. The water and dry food they brought were all used up, and they did not see any inns along the way. When they saw a courtyard halfway up the mountain, they came up to ask for some water and dry food.

Except for the middle-aged man in the lead, the rest of the people stared at the food on Xia Taoyuan's table. Seeing this, the eldest princess said, "If you don't mind, there are still some food in the kitchen. I'll bring it for you to eat on the road."

The middle-aged man said gratefully: "Thank you, young lady. I will remember your kindness in my heart and will repay you in the future!"

"Cuiyun, Xiyue, go to the kitchen and wrap the food in lotus leaves for this big brother." The eldest princess said to the little maid.

The little maidservant went away in response. The middle-aged man said to the boy beside him, "Take a bag and go with the two girls to pack some dry food."

The two servants followed him in, and the princess's servants followed him in. After a while, they came out dressed.

Several people thanked the princess again and insisted on leaving the silver before leaving.
