The stunning beauty of Qing Dynasty

Ever since Tong Jia Wanying was suspected by the Tong Jia couple, she immediately gave up her previous plan to open a jewelry store and a clothing store, and she became much quieter.

The Prince Heqin's Mansion (the residence of the Ninth Prince), with its carved beams and painted buildings, jade-built towers, and meticulously carved courtyards, reveals a luxurious yet elegant style, and also highlights the Ninth Prince's rich background.

In the pavilion, fish in a pond swayed gently, stirring up waves of lively ripples. Yinzhen sat on a stone bench with carved patterns, casually throwing some prepared bait with one hand, and every movement was full of uninhibited and unrestrained. The shadow blocked by the pavilion fell on his thick and long eyelashes, making it difficult to see his eyes. Only the occasional finger movement proved that he had heard the secret guard's words clearly.

"Tong Guogang's eldest daughter Tong Jia Wanying, and second daughter Tong Jia Qingyu? The emperor's favor is indeed too great. No wonder this young lady looks down on them." There was no arrogance in Yin'er's tone, but rather a hint of teasing.

In terms of the emperor's grace, who can compare to the prince of the current emperor? The secret guard hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, when I was investigating the two young ladies, I found that Miss Tong Jia was the actual owner of the cake and milk tea shops that had taken away a lot of our business."

"Oh~ Are those recipes her own?"

"I didn't find it."

The secret guard lowered his head and dared not say another word.

"Okay, let's go down."

"Yes."

Yinzhen rubbed the emerald green ring in his hand playfully. This young lady had a lot of secrets in her heart. It was a pity that the recipe fell into the hands of such a stupid person. It was really unbearable. In a trance, his mind recalled the pair of amber-like clear eyes. They were so beautiful that he felt his fingertips itching.

Yinzhen was not an innocent boy. He had already married a wife. He knew clearly what he wanted from the girl. He knew that the Tong family was close to Bage, so he would get what he wanted.

The man's low and dark eyes didn't seem to be looking at the cute little goldfish anymore, but rather like greed and plunder for his beloved toy.

At the Tong Mansion, Tong Jia Wanying, who had been well behaved for a long time, finally couldn't stay any longer. She was used to being out and about these days, and now she felt really uncomfortable being idle in the house.

"Sister, do you want to go out?"

What does her elder sister want to do? Qingyin said in surprise: "If you want to go out, just go out. Just tell mother."

"Today is different. I will take you to a new and fun place. You don't need to tell mother. We can just take the small path and bring our personal maids with us."

Tong Jia Wanying felt a little impatient, but if she went there, she would take her adopted sister with her so that she could share the blame. She forced a smile and tried to persuade Qing Yin.

"Eldest sister, don't the guards bring this with them?"

Tong Jia Wanying was a little angry and said with a sidelong look: "Do you really want to go out and play with me? If not, I won't take you with me."

Qing Yin hesitated for a moment, and when Tong Jia Wanying was about to get impatient, she pretended to be happy and said, "Okay, I want to be with my eldest sister."

After the two of them finished talking, Tong Jia Wanying took Qing Yin and walked left and right, through several winding corridors and courtyards, and walked deeper into the cave.

Looking at the road that was getting farther and farther away, Qing Yin asked in confusion: "Sister, don't you want to go through the front door?"

Tong Jia Wanying was a little impatient, "Hey, just follow me, I won't let you get lost!"

After a moment of silence, Qingyin looked at the dog hole in front of her, which was neither too big nor too small, just big enough for a woman's thin body.

……

Qingyin murmured, "Elder sister, is this the path you mentioned?"

Seeing the shocked looks of Qingyin and Helu, Tong Jia Wanying's face flashed with guilt, and Cuihua behind her also had the panic of having led her master astray. The young lady asked about this dog hole, and her brother's cousin's son happened to be the servant who took care of the hunting dogs in the mansion, and he told her when the opportunity arose. If she knew that this dog hole was where the young lady wanted to sneak out of the mansion, she would never tell her, not to mention that the eldest young lady had brought the second young lady with her, and Cuihua's eyes were full of despair.

Thinking of Tong Jia Wanying going out through the dog hole, it was just a coincidence. When she was in modern times, she saw the heroines of those TV dramas all slipping out through the dog hole, so she wanted to take the opportunity to ask, but she didn't expect that there really was one, and it just happened to lead to a slightly remote alley outside the mansion, and she could reach the bustling market by walking out. If she didn't seize this opportunity, it would be impossible!

He Lu, who had been quietly following behind Qing Yin, couldn't help but speak up: "Miss, how can we get out through the dog hole?"

Seeing He Lu trying to persuade her, Cui Hua seemed to have hope and started to persuade the eldest lady:

"Yes, Miss, if the Madam and the Master knew about this, they would definitely punish you."

Looking at the maid who kept persuading her, Tong Jia Wanying's fear was reduced a lot, and she became more determined to go out.

Seeing Tong Jia Wanying's increasingly determined expression, Qing Yin did not join the persuasion team. The more her sister refuted, the more determined she became. She was obviously a favored girl in her previous life, so it was useless for her to persuade her. Qing Yin did not have any idea about climbing a dog hole, but if people knew about it, it would indeed affect her reputation. However, this did not affect her much, not to mention that she really wanted to know where her sister wanted to take her.

Tong Jia Wanying said unhappily: "There are only four of us here, just come back before dark, who would know!"

Qingyin also hesitated for a while, pretended to be worried for a moment, and then agreed.

After coming out of the dog hole, Tong Jia Wanying was obviously in a much happier mood. She followed the previous route and smoothly led a few people to the bustling street.

When they got to the street, Tong Jia Wanying skillfully led a few people to the clothing store. Looking at the puzzled people, she smiled proudly and said, "You all should choose men's clothes to avoid people knowing our identities."

Qingyin nodded. Since they were already here, it would be better and more complete to listen to her finish the task.

The shop owner was a 40-year-old voluptuous lady. She was not surprised to see several veiled girls picking up men's clothes. She had seen many rich young ladies who loved to dress up as men and sneak out to play. The girls in front of her were just like that. She smiled and said, "Miss, you are small, so you have to come inside to choose men's clothes. There are some that are suitable for you."

Qing Yin smiled lightly: "Okay, thank you boss."

He Lu and Cui Hua, who were greeted warmly, looked towards their respective young ladies somewhat helplessly. Qing Yin and Tong Jia Wan Ying were obviously much calmer. One of them was calm and composed after experiencing so much time, and the other had seen too many girls buying men's clothing in modern times. Their calmness also calmed He Lu and Cui Hua down.

Several people picked out their own clothes and changed into them.
