Traveling through time and space

Chapter 152 Making Friends

Nanny Shang and Dongmei had never seen the Crown Princess Ouyang Mingduo of Shenji. "This is the Crown Princess of Shenji, the eldest princess Ouyang Mingduo," Su Yuanyuan introduced.

"We, the servants, greet Princess Ouyang Mingduo." Dongmei and the others both bowed.

"Princess Anle, I've heard of Princess Anle, Gu Yuanyuan, since I entered Qingyang. She's the most beloved princess of Emperor Qingyang. Now that I've seen her, I can see she's truly stunning and beautiful."

"Princess Mingduo, it's better to meet by chance than to be invited. Why don't you let Anle play the role of host and invite you to the teahouse up ahead for a cup of tea?"

"Of course, we are both legitimate princesses. How about I call you Yuanyuan and you call me Mingduo?"

"Okay, I like Mingduo's personality. She's not the delicate and pretentious type."

"Really? Yuanyuan's personality isn't that bad, and Mingduo likes her too. Let's go. I'm a little hungry. Can Yuanyuan take me to eat something delicious?"

"Dongmei, send someone to the dining hall to tell them to prepare the best table. This princess will be there later."

"Yes, Princess, I will do it right away."

A group of people were kneeling on the ground. It turned out that they were frightened when they heard the two princesses talking. They knelt and refused to stand up. "Manager Qiu, Changsheng, everyone, please stand up." Of course, there were still other customers in the shop, and they knelt down as well. "Sorry for disturbing you today."

"Princess, what brings you to our shop?" Manager Qiu asked tremblingly as he stood up.

"Manager Qiu, please don't be nervous. This princess just wants to come and see what grains and vegetables we have in Qingyang, and what improvements we need to make. The emperor once said that food is the most important thing for the people, and these are the foundations of our Qingyang, so this princess also wants to understand the people's conditions and livelihoods."

"The princess truly loves the people like her own children. She is a blessing to us Qingyang." An auntie actually shouted such words.

"Aunt, thank you for your kind words. Princess Mingduo, let's go. We're sorry to bother you all." Su Yuanyuan nodded and walked out, feeling regretful in her heart. She finally had the time to come and take a look, but she still hadn't figured it out. She should send someone to the market to take a good look and do an investigation. "Princess Mingduo, please." Su Yuanyuan went out and let the other party go first. This was courtesy.

"Princess, I asked Rumei to arrange it personally," Dongmei said, standing beside the carriage.

"Princess Yuanyuan, please take your car."

"Okay, Princess Mingduo, please." Dongmei and her nanny were standing nearby, but the princess jumped into the car by herself. Su Yuanyuan also liked this posture, so she got in the car in the same way. Su Yuanyuan suddenly wondered if this person was also a time traveler. She really had a good relationship with her.

"I am nineteen years old. How old is Yuanyuan this year?"

"sixteen."

"Do you have a prince consort?" The man sighed deeply, "I already have a princess consort, four princess concubines, and the crown prince is two years old." There was some fatigue in his tone.

"Ordinary people at this age would marry and have children. Princess Mingduo is so lucky." She is only three years older than herself, but she already has four husbands and a son. But she is still single. "Mingduo went to the grain store, what's the matter?" Su Yuanyuan, no, it was Gu Yuanyuan, suddenly remembered to ask.

"To be honest, Yuanyuan, our area is very hilly, and the national grain production is very low. Every year, we have to spend half of our money to buy grain from neighboring countries. This time, I came to Qingyang to see what kind of grain is suitable for growing in our area. You just said that food is the most important thing for the people, so we must ensure that our people have enough to eat."

"Chenji is a hilly area. Does it have a lot of rainfall every year?" Gu Yuanyuan asked.

"There was very little rain, only enough for drinking and water use. My father was very anxious and wanted to abdicate early so that I, the princess, could take over." This was a bit Versailles. The throne was something that many people would fight for but could not get.

"There are a lot of drought-resistant crops you can grow, like sweet potatoes, potatoes (also known as 'forest eggs'), and corn. What are you growing now?"

"Sorghum, wheat, rice, a few kinds of melons, and so on."

"Princess, we're here." Yu Lin's voice rang out outside, and the people in the car realized that the carriage had stopped and everyone got off. Gu Yuanyuan was stunned again. There were quite a lot of people.

"Prince Kong Shu, Zheng Yuyan greets Princess Qingyang."

"Grandson Fengyan He Sizhe greets Princess Qingyang." There were a bunch of people waiting in the car, all of them were handsome guys.

"Prince Kong Shu, Hello, Grandson Feng Yan," Gu Yuanyuan returned the greeting. "What a coincidence, running into you all here. However, an invitation is worse than an encounter. Today, let me show my courtesy and invite you all to a simple meal. I'm the Crown Princess Ji. I hope you don't mind."

Ouyang Mingduo shook her head. "This princess doesn't mind. You are all pillars of our country. This princess is looking for an opportunity to get to know you all."

"Little princess, what a coincidence," everyone here was greeting each other when the sixth brother's carriage stopped beside them and people got off.

"Sixth brother, could it be that we are so destined to be together? Yuanyuan just came out to eat and ran into you, Sixth brother."

"Sixth brother was out on business and passed by Anjing Street. He saw the carriage from the Princess' Mansion and came to see it. I didn't expect to meet you all." Sixth brother's words were very calm, but Su Yuanyuan knew that there were many eyes at the door of her house. Otherwise, how could she meet so many interesting people here?

"We also met the two princesses here. Hello, Prince Xian." Zheng Yuyan and He Sizhe stepped forward and spoke to each other.

"If Sixth Brother has nothing else to do, Yuanyuan will treat you today and let's have dinner together," Gu Yuanyuan took the initiative to invite.

"Okay, the two princes and the prince's grandson are here, so I must accompany them." Everyone entered the dining hall. The dishes prepared for the table were stir-fried dishes, of course, of the best. From the conversation of the three guests, Gu Yuanyuan also learned that the eldest and second sons Lu had bought soy sauce in other countries. She had to find a chance to ask them whether the 200,000 yuan capital had been returned. The sixth brother had a great time chatting with them. Gu Yuanyuan and Ouyang Mingduo talked about topics between girls and made an appointment to go shopping together another day. The two princesses would occasionally talk to them, but Gu Yuanyuan had a strange feeling. Since the first time she met the sixth brother, the sixth brother would always glance at her unconsciously with a faint smile on his lips. The two would also secretly glance at Gu Yuanyuan. Gu Yuanyuan also understood in her heart that the two might be coming for her.

"My little princess's cooking skills are superb, rivaling those of the imperial kitchen in the palace. Little princess, is Sixth Brother telling the truth?" The two women were having a small meeting when they heard Sixth Brother's voice calling out to them. "Sixth Brother is telling the Crown Prince and the Crown Prince that our Princess Qingyang is as good as any man. She can write poetry and cook delicious food."

"Sixth brother, please don't just talk about Yuanyuan's strengths. I won't mention Yuanyuan's weaknesses." There was a knock on the door. "Come in and talk."

"Princess, someone wants to see you. They say it's urgent." Yingshan, the waiter from Shizhonglou, answered carefully from the doorway. Gu Yuanyuan stood up and walked out the door. Xiao Maozi was pacing around anxiously, looking really anxious.

"Princess," the little Maozi walked forward and whispered softly when he saw his master coming out. When Su Yuanyuan heard it, her face changed. He finally spoke, but he actually wanted to see the princess.

Gu Yuanyuan waved her hand and asked them to leave first, then she went into the house. "Everyone, Yuanyuan is sorry for being rude. I have to take my leave first. There are some urgent matters in the mansion and I have to go back to deal with them." Gu Yuanyuan entered the house and apologized to everyone very embarrassedly.

"But what's the urgent matter? Sixth Brother will go back with you."

"No thanks, Sixth Brother. Yuanyuan can handle it herself. Goodbye everyone."

"Yuanyuan, can Mingduo visit the princess's residence?"

"Princess Mingduo, of course you can. We're already friends. You're welcome to visit us." Gu Yuanyuan, still hung up on that matter, left without lingering and returned to her car. "Little Maozi, what's up?"

"Princess, just now when Shuanzi passed by, he whispered something, saying that the man had woken up and wanted to leave secretly, so they detained him."

"Okay, did anyone see him talking to you just now?"

"No, Shuanzi also thought of this. He just whispered it to me when he passed by me, and he also made some changes."

"Okay, Yulin, go to Wujin East Street and find a way to get rid of the people following us," Gu Yuanyuan also made up her mind. She would let Ayu, Aluan and the others kill them all at night. Who cares who they are? They love whoever they are. They are spying on her and are here to die. She got in the car, closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.

"Princess, I am useless," Yu Lin's voice sounded in front.

"It's okay. It seems that more than one group of people are staring at this princess. Stop at the intersection ahead. Park the car on the spot and let them go directly to the alley. You keep an eye on the people and see who approaches this alley. Gu Yuanyuan got out of the car by herself, lowered her head, and went into a shop next door. The shop was a blacksmith shop. There were customers in the shop, but no one saw Su Yuanyuan come in. Su Yuanyuan saw that no one was paying attention to her, so she went straight into the space and moved horizontally to the end of Wujin East Street, at the door of the courtyard. Just as she was about to knock on the door, it opened from the inside. It was Kuizi who opened the courtyard door.

"Greetings, Princess." Gu Yuanyuan entered the yard.

"What happened? That person woke up?"

"Yes, Princess. That man woke up at daybreak and said nothing when asked. He was leaving. We had no choice but to tie him up and send him to the Princess's residence to deliver the letter."

"Where are he? How did you find this princess?"

"He insisted on delivering the letter to the princess himself, so I had no choice but to drive the carriage and take him to find the princess."

"His wound has opened again?" Gu Yuanyuan thought of the consequence.

"We went to the princess's mansion and heard that the princess had left the city. Brother Shuanzi calculated the time and thought that the princess would be back in the city soon. He asked me to drive the carriage and we drove around the city. We finally found the princess."

"Thank you for your hard work. Go and check on Shuanzi's wound first." Su Yuanyuan went to check on Shuanzi's wound. It was bloody again. She blamed him a few words, put down some medicine in the space, and wanted to go see that person.
