Chapter 369 Princess's Skirt 15
Gu Li tapped Cai Yi's head with her fan and said to Cai Yi, who was dressed as a servant, in a rough voice: "You should call me Master!"
It turned out that the princess's fan was not used to fan her, but to hit her. Caiyi rubbed the place where she was hit, but she still didn't agree with the princess leaving the house alone.
What should I do if I meet a bad guy?
Caiyi was still struggling over whether or not to leave a secret message for Commander Hu without the princess's knowledge, while the princess, who had just exited the side door, had already run away, sticking close to the wall of the mansion.
"Hey, sir, please wait for me."
The snow on the road was a little dirty from being trampled, and she felt a little disgusted.
I happened to be wearing a pair of white shoes today. Gu Li walked along the wall, stepping on the clean snow beside the wall.
Now that she has come out, it is impossible to let her go back.
Caiyi, who had caught up, followed the princess, crouching down, covering half of her face, and asked in a low voice, "Sir, why are you walking so close to the wall?" as if she were a thief.
But this is obviously her princess's mansion, there is no need to be a thief.
When Gu Li turned around, she saw Cai Yi's sneaky look and said unhappily, "I just don't want to dirty my shoes."
She pointed to the road in the distance, where the servants in the mansion were trampling back and forth, leaving dirty water everywhere.
Caiyi put down her hands that were covering her face and said with a smile: "That's easy!"
A quarter of an hour later, Caiyi helped Gu Li get on a cart that came out of a corner gate on the west side of the princess's mansion.
The vegetable farmer was driving the donkey in front, and Gu Li and Cai Yi were sitting behind.
"I didn't expect you to be so amazing, Caiyi."
Caiyi grinned.
It was Gu Li’s first time riding a donkey cart. She hung her legs leisurely and let the cart sway slowly along the way.
The intermittent snow in the sky had stopped at some point, and the thick clouds seemed to no longer be able to block the sun's rays from shining on the world. Strands of golden light leaked out from the gaps in the clouds, reflecting the bright light on the snowy ground.
My eyes hurt after looking at it for a long time.
Gu Li opened her folding fan and covered her forehead with it in a cool way.
Caiyi, who was standing by, flattered him: "Sir, you are really foresighted. It turns out that carrying a fan in winter can be useful in this way!"
Gu Li's mouth twitched slightly, and she pouted and threw the folding fan in her hand into Caiyi's arms.
"Sir?" Caiyi quickly took the fan. The jade handle of the fan would not be cold even in winter. It was made of the finest warm jade. "I will block the sun for you!"
Gu Li waved away Caiyi's hand, supported herself on the car board with both hands, squinted her eyes and lay on her back, feeling the warmth of the winter sun.
Gu Li felt that this kind of life seemed pretty good.
Little did people know how attractive her leisurely and lazy posture, coupled with her clothes and temperament that were incompatible with the cart, were.
On the simple donkey cart, two handsome young men were leaning behind several large bamboo baskets. One of them was swinging his legs alternately, basking in the twilight comfortably, like a lazy cat taking a nap in the afternoon.
After seeing her face clearly, Shen Qingzhou, who was sitting by the window on the second floor of the teahouse, held the cup for a long time but did not feed the hot tea into his mouth.
Shen Qingzhou watched the donkey cart passing through the back alley of the teahouse.
"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. See you later!" He put down the tea bowl, left this sentence, and no longer cared about his friends who were chatting and laughing, and hurried downstairs to chase in the direction of the donkey cart.
Shen Qingzhou went downstairs very quickly. However, when he arrived at the back alley, the little princess was no longer on the donkey cart that was about to turn the corner.
Shen Qingzhou looked back and forth at the shops on both sides of the back alley, predicting which shop Gu Li might enter.
He had no doubt that he had mistaken the little princess who was dressed as a boy. He was very familiar with the little princess's every word, action, frown and smile.
He could recognize her just by a movement or a sound.
But what was Gu Lier doing here at this time? He only brought Cai Yi, who could only serve tea and water, and there was not even a guard around him.
What on earth is she going to do?
Shen Qingzhou looked around. Because there was a Yafeng Building not far away, there were shops selling food, clothing, daily necessities and housing on both sides of this back alley. There were three shops selling rouge and powder alone.
Shen Qingzhou felt that the things here were not good enough for the little princess, so he couldn't tell where the little princess had gone and could only search house by house.
Gu Li took Caiyi through the alley, passed a jewelry shop and went straight to Yafeng Building at the end of the street.
There was no other reason, it was just because there was a beautiful girl in thin clothes and colorful clothes leaning on the railing on the second floor, looking into the distance, and there was the sound of stringed instruments and orchestras in the building, which attracted Gu Li extremely in this dirty street.
"Sir, this doesn't seem to be a good place!" Caiyi followed behind Gu Li, almost sticking to the princess's back, and she reminded the princess in a low voice.
Gu Li walked in without hesitation, hands behind his back, "Is this a good place? It depends on what people are thinking!"
"But." Caiyi tugged at the princess' sleeve, but the princess pulled it back rudely.
"Cai Yi, I brought you here out of kindness to see the world, why are you so ungrateful?"
As soon as Gu Li finished speaking, the madam came over and swung the rose-red embroidered handkerchief in her hand, and a pungent fragrance hit her face.
"Hey, this guy doesn't look like a stranger. Is this your first time here?"
Gu Li took a half step back without leaving a trace, avoiding the overly fragrant handkerchief, tapped the folding fan in her hand, and said proudly: "Open a room and go to the upper room!"
The madam hurriedly led the way, leading Gu Li upstairs, "Young Master, please come this way! This is your first time in our Fengya Building, right?"
Gu Li ignored the madam's words and said calmly, "Call the top girls and the most popular girls here, and serve some special food."
After hearing this, Caiyi was completely sure what kind of place this was. Her hands couldn't stop shaking. She pushed the procuress aside, separating the princess from the procuress who was grinning so hard that her teeth were showing.
The madam met a big client and didn't care about being pushed aside. She opened a room called Laurel Pavilion for them, pointed out a young girl to serve snacks, and then she twisted her hips to urge the girls to come.
Caiyi was about to cry, "Princess, let's leave here quickly. If the Queen knew that you came to such a place, she would definitely break my legs-----"
Gu Li held the fan against Cai Yi's mouth, "If you don't tell me and I don't tell you, how can the Queen Mother know? Besides, I don't have the tools to commit a crime. What bad things can I do here? I just came here to see the world. Don't be afraid, don't be afraid!"
Caiyi was no match for the princess, so she had to follow closely behind her, always alert to her surroundings in case any indecent scenes occurred that would pollute the princess's eyes.
Soon, the madam came in with five or six girls wearing dresses of different colors.
Gu Li slapped two hundred-liang silver notes on the table and said, "Show me all your special skills. If I am happy, I will reward you!"
