The princess is very versatile, leaving the prince to become the richest
Chapter 38 Going to Jiangnan
After returning to the palace, Jiang Qingyu didn't eat breakfast and went straight into bed to catch up on his sleep.
Because Jiang Qingyu was going to Jiangnan, the entire palace was busy.
Among them, the housekeeper was busy selecting guards with good skills in the mansion to follow Jiang Qingyu to Jiangnan.
Anxious Jiang Qingyu set out with a large force at dawn the next day.
Including the carriage that Jiang Qingyu was riding in, there were four carriages in total, and the other three were gifts prepared for everyone in the Liu family.
There were five maids in total including Ran Yang, and more than thirty guards accompanying them.
As soon as this mighty procession left Prince Qi's palace, it attracted the attention of the people on the street.
Everyone was curious about where Jiang Qingyu was going and what he was going to do with such a grand team.
Not many people knew the truth of the matter, and everyone speculated whether Jiang Qingyu had offended the emperor or the queen, so he was sent out of the capital.
Because there was the logo of Prince Qi's Palace on the carriage, and they were traveling on official roads, her trip to the capital was much smoother than her mother's first trip from Jiangnan.
On the first day, it was the first time that Jiang Qingyu sat in a carriage for such a long time. In the evening, she found a government post station to rest. As soon as she got off the carriage, she almost fainted.
I had been swaying in the carriage for too long, and I felt dizzy as soon as I touched the ground.
Fortunately, there was a doctor in the post station who taught Ran Yang some relief methods, which made Jiang Qingyu feel better.
So the rest of the journey was arranged more loosely. Stopping along the way, Jiang Qingyu would try all the delicious and fun things she encountered.
It took them nearly half a month to walk a distance that others would need ten days.
The group finally arrived in Jiangnan at noon on the sixteenth day of their departure. When people saw their configuration, they knew that this group of people had an extraordinary origin and they stopped to watch.
Seeing the scene outside through the curtains, Jiang Qingyu was speechless. It was true that people's love for eating melons remained the same no matter where they were.
Because Jiang Qingyu didn't know what the Liu family's attitude towards her was now, she didn't visit them as soon as she arrived.
She did not choose the post station either, because she was afraid that the noise would be too loud and the Liu family would find out in advance and hide from her.
They just found an ordinary inn, but even so, their team still caused quite a stir.
Jiangnan is worthy of being called a land of fish and rice. The styles here and Beijing are completely different.
There is a lot of rain in the south of the Yangtze River. The people here eat rice, and most of the houses are built along the river. They are usually two-story, and the first floor is usually too damp to be lived in.
As soon as she arrived here, Jiang Qingyu was deeply attracted.
She sent someone to inquire about the latest situation of the Liu family. In the afternoon, she planned to take Ran Yang and He Yan to the market for a stroll.
Because he wanted to train He Yan to be his confidant, he brought him with him to Jiangnan this time, so that he could observe his character and abilities.
When they arrived at the market, Jiang Qingyu and Ran Yang were both deeply impressed by the customs and culture of Jiangnan.
The markets here are different from those in the capital. The markets in the capital are all on the main roads, but here because it is built by the water, there are mostly rivers at the entrance.
So they extended the first floor, added a roof on top, and set up railings below to form a veranda, where people bought and sold things.
Immersed in the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan, the two people forgot the difference between master and servant, and laughed as they ate this and bought that. To outsiders, they looked like a pair of real sisters.
He Yan, who was following behind them to help them get things, saw all of this. After spending some time together, he felt that Jiang Qingyu was different. She didn't seem to be as cruel and ruthless as the rumors said.
Because Jiang Qingyu and Ran Yang ate too much delicious food in the afternoon, they didn't eat anything in the evening.
The servants she sent out to gather information came back, but as they were unfamiliar with the area, they didn't find out anything useful.
I only heard that her uncle's second daughter, Liu Jiayu, liked to go to a restaurant. This restaurant was different from other ones. The performers here were all men, and they were all good-looking.
Jiang Qingyu decided to start with her cousin and planned to meet her by chance next time she went there.
She ordered her men to keep a close eye on Liu Jiayu and report to her immediately if there was any movement.
After everyone left, Jiang Qingyu washed up and lay on the bed, thinking about how he might meet Liu Jiayu.
First of all, she had to change her image. Otherwise, if her identity was discovered and the news that the Princess of Qi visited a brothel damaged the royal family's reputation spread, the Emperor would probably skin her alive.
As she thought about it, Jiang Qingyu, who had been tired for a few days, could no longer bear Zhou Gong's invitation and fell asleep.
There was no news for two days. She was afraid that if she went out to wander around, the messenger would not be able to find her, so she did not go out for these two days.
After seeing the prosperity outside, it seems a bit boring to stay in the inn all the time.
She thought that if there was no news this morning, she would go out again in the afternoon to experience the local customs and culture again.
Finally, the hard work paid off. Just as it was time for him to eat, the person who was following him brought news.
"Your subordinate greets the princess. The second young lady of the Liu family you asked to watch has just gone out to Yuanchunlin."
Yuanchunlin is the place mentioned above, where men sell their art but not their bodies.
Upon hearing that the fish had come out, Jiang Qingyu called Ran Yang and four other maids.
"Ran Yang, I'm going to Yuanchun Forest. Find me some suitable clothes and cover yourself up a little. Try not to let people see your true face. Ask He Yan to go with me later."
Ran Yang went to work as instructed, and the remaining four were still waiting for Jiang Qingyu's arrangements.
Under Jiang Qingyu's command, they were busy having fun. Four people were combing her hair, looking for accessories, doing Jiang Qingyu's makeup, and there was another one doing odd jobs nearby.
The hair should be combed into a unmarried style, the accessories should not be too high-profile or too trendy, and the makeup should be in line with the Jiangnan style.
It was also thanks to Jiang Qingyu's several trips out a few days ago that she got to know the makeup of the women here.
The facial creams, rouge and powder in ancient times were so bad that every time you put on makeup it was like you were applying powder on top of it.
Whether it's the skin care products or makeup techniques, they are not as good as those in the 21st century.
Jiang Qingyu suddenly had an idea that maybe he could improve their products and open a gouache shop, and the business would definitely be booming.
Although the things used were of poor quality, Jiang Qingyu's skills were superior. Under her command, she seemed like a different person in the mirror.
The nose was deliberately drawn to be a little flatter than before, the eyebrows were made thicker, and even the eyes were made smaller.
Compared with her usual makeup, it is no longer bright and attractive, but has a more delicate and innocent air. She looks innocent and more approachable than before.
