Fairy Road Return [comprehensive]
Chapter 517 Sui Dynasty Princess VS Tang Dynasty Prince—25
Yang Ruoxi is an activist, so she talked to Liu He and Lu Qian on the second day, and a few maidservants expressed their support, and they were quite excited. Taking everyone's opinion, since it is a women's newspaper, it is for women, so I wrote Called beautiful beauty.
This girl Liu He seems to have inexhaustible energy. She, Lu Qian, Sun Fang, and Tan Qing acted separately. It took five days to set up the main personnel needed by the newspaper Meili Liren. The editor-in-chief is a Zhao Qi, a down-and-out scholar who specializes in serving women in brothels and doing makeup, Zhao Qi has a limp leg and a scar on his face. No matter how talented he was, he couldn't become an official. Good painting skills and pictures of erotic palaces, entrusted to sell by brothel bustards, so that money can be made faster, and after a long time, I have a lot of contacts with brothel prostitutes, and I have a lot of experience in women's dressing and dressing, which can be regarded as earning some extra money.
When Yang Ruoxi and Liu He came to the door, Zhao Qi was still a little surprised, but then he smiled bitterly. It seems that no matter how much he has been hiding behind the scenes for the sake of fame, he has been known by interested people.He has also read Datang Culture News, but he is very interested in this medium. He never thought that he could be the editor-in-chief of this medium, and the monthly salary is not low. In addition, he provides erotic pictures of brothels, etc., which can make people feel happy. His wife and children had a better life, so Zhao Qi agreed.
Afterwards, Zhao Qi and Liu He were responsible for recruiting people for the newspaper. The people Zhao Qi recruited were basically down-and-out scholars who didn’t pay much attention to some things that the scholars insisted on nowadays. I know, only knowing that they can feed themselves without robbing others is what they need to consider.
Five days later, Zhao Qi, Liu He, and two other recruited scholars went to the Ministry of Rites to apply for approval. They found that many people were waiting for the approval of the Ministry of Rites with a stack of documents. In just a few days, the unit that applied for the newspaper had already approved five of them, and the Ministry of Rites strictly enforced the regulations. Some of them had not been given to them when they submitted them, so they had to call back and rewrite them. Otherwise, there would be only five of them.
The application for the Beautiful Beauty newspaper was completed once. The main purpose of the newspaper was to introduce the fashionable clothes, decorations, etc., and the officials of the Ministry of Rituals reviewed it over and over again, but they didn’t find anything that violated the laws and social rules of the Tang Dynasty. Quickly approved.
Once the license number is obtained, the newspaper can be officially published.
Yang Ruoxi first wrote an article about how to wear the clothes in her embroidered room and how to make them more beautiful, and then she wrote about the latest upper bodies of Yang Ruohua, Yang Ruoyan, Yang Ruolian, and Yang Ruomei, wearing particularly beautiful skirts, and how to apply makeup on their faces Wait a minute to comment with her admiring eyes. Of course, most of Yang Ruohua's and the others' clothes are from the embroidery houses outside. If this issue of the newspaper is published, it will be tantamount to advertising for those embroidery houses, but this is exactly Yang Ruoxi's purpose. Only by spreading the popularity can we cooperate with other embroidery houses and rouge and gouache shops.
After investigation, there are no less than [-] newspapers in Chang'an City, but apart from Meililiren, none of them focus on women's newspapers, so Meililiren will be the only one in the future.
Later, during the period when Meili Liren wrote the article and published it into a book, several newspapers in Chang'an City had been published, and a large number of children selling newspapers appeared on the street. This novel method suddenly attracted the attention of many people. However, a newspaper costs five cents, which is naturally very cheap for wealthy households, but five cents is very expensive for low-level ordinary people, and they are reluctant to buy it, not to mention that they can't read it.
So on this day, Lixie listened to Meng Liang report on the sales of many newspapers in Chang'an City after their release. Because of the novelty, all the newspapers printed in the first issue of these newspapers were sold out. The newspapers did not think about doing a survey, but Qingyun Pavilion I did a survey on the street. Except for two newspapers that are relatively novel and funny, the content of many other newspapers is relatively dull. Even the novels they write are relatively dull. closed.
"Don't worry about this matter, they can do everything, and the interests will lead them to make changes."
The circulation of other people's newspapers is so good, why not ours?After reflection, changes will inevitably be made, and those who cannot change will have to quit the industry.
Qingyun Pavilion also has a newspaper called Qingyun News. Lixie didn't ask about it, and everyone in the pavilion fiddled with it. Those who can enter Qingyun Pavilion are not pedantic. Maybe this newspaper will be played by them.
Li Xie said again: "In fact, the first thing to bear the brunt is to do a good job in education. If everyone can read and write, then more people will buy newspapers, and more people will buy newspapers, and more people will run newspapers. In this way The cycle goes on and on, stimulating social and economic development, people can do more things, and they can live a better life.”
Meng Liang lowered his head and thought, the reason is that it was not easy to read in the past, not only the aristocrats of the aristocrats controlled the books, but also the publication of books was not easy, now that the printing of books is easy, the price of books will drop, and then most ordinary people’s homes will If you can buy books, you can send more children to school.
Education is a long way to go. Since His Highness said so, he will definitely focus on education in the future.
Meng Liang nodded, skipped the topic, and said, "Your Highness, Xiong Tun's place is going very well, and within a month, Tuyuhun will fall apart."
Li Xie narrowed his eyes and said, "Then, now we can secretly send troops to the border."
The Tang army was divided into three groups, one entered Tuyuhun from the southwest, the other entered Tuyuhun from the north, and the other passed through Chang'an. The three armies flanked each other, and victory should be easy.
After Meng Liang left, Li Xie entered the palace and discussed with Li Yuan about sending troops to Tuyuhun. Li Yuan did not object to sending troops, so he called Li Shimin's brothers to discuss the candidates for sending troops, and the person recommended by Li Yuan was Li Jing. Have a soft spot for Li Jing?Li Shimin recommended Qin Qiong, Li Xie recommended Yu Chigong, Li Xuanba and Li Zhiyun also recommended promising generals, and Li Yuanji simply recommended himself.
Three days later, the Ministry of Households cooperated with the Ministry of War to arrange food and grass and set off first. Five days later, three regiments of 5000 people from the camp in the western suburbs of Chang'an set off, led by Li Yuanji, Qin Qiong, etc., and troops stationed in other places Cooperating with the forward, it was agreed that each of them would arrive at the camp in half a month, and then send people to communicate with each other.
The dispatch of troops to Tuyuhun was carried out in secret, and the court did not publicize it. Except for some officials from the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household Affairs, most officials did not know about it, let alone the people of Chang'an.
During this period of time, many very practical gadgets emerged in Chang'an City, which greatly facilitated people's lives, and the whole Chang'an was full of vitality.
The first issue of Meiliren newspaper had already been published. At that time, the circulation was only [-] copies. It sold [-] copies on the first day, but the remaining three days were sold out. Word of mouth, the daughters of nobles in Chang'an City , wealthy daughters, and noble wives know that there is such a newspaper dedicated to serving women, and the content introduced on it is very practical. There are always some people who do what the newspaper teaches, and finally get very good results Effect.
Zhao Qi mobilized his staff to do a survey, and got a piece of data from a woman walking on the street. The wives and young ladies who had read the newspaper thought it was very good, and those who hadn’t read it were regarded as a personal promotion, so the second issue [-] copies of the newspaper were distributed, but the sales volume is unknown.
But a guest came to Meililiren's office, she is the shopkeeper of Lan's Embroidery Workshop. She came here to sponsor Meililiren. Skirts, long skirts with narrow sleeves, etc. The fabrics of the three sets of clothes are different, but there are always women who are suitable for wearing them.
After the last issue of "Beautiful Beauty", Lan's Embroidery Workshop has ushered in the peak period of customer flow. The shopkeeper and the owner couldn't close their mouths. Thinking, if there is no introduction of clothes and makeup from Lan's Embroidery Workshop in the next issue of the newspaper, will the business drop back to the way it was before?
As a result, after the publication of Beautiful Beauty yesterday, the business of Lan's Embroidery Workshop did not reach a peak because there was no introduction of clothes from Lan's Embroidery Workshop, but the clothes introduced above happened to be from the Water Village Embroidery Building opposite to Lan's Embroidery Workshop. Looking at the embroidery building in the water town, there have been many guests coming in and out since yesterday afternoon, and it is said that there are a lot of transactions!
So the shopkeeper of Lan's Embroidery Workshop went to the Office of the Beautiful Beauty newspaper to talk about whether it is possible that their clothes from Lan's will be included in the materials selected for the next issue of the newspaper?
Zhao Qi was a little excited, because he finally waited for the sponsorship of the first merchant, so will the second merchant be far behind?
……
Yang Ruoxi didn't know about Lan's Embroidery Workshop's sponsorship of beautiful beauties. Zhao Qi was fully entrusted with these matters. He is the editor-in-chief of the newspaper and is closely related to the interests of the newspaper, so he will naturally take care of it.
Today, Yang Ruoxi is painting landscapes, which was requested by the porcelain kiln. After so many days of special research, the craftsmen of the porcelain kiln have developed rapidly and are able to make different styles of porcelain.
Tan Qing and Sun Fang came in with a bunch of clothes. They brought them back from the office of Meililiren. They were all fashionable and unique clothes picked from various sponsors for the next issue of Meililiren. material.
There are more than 20 newspapers in Chang'an City. After each issue is issued, some people pay special attention to its circulation. Many newspaper owners did not think that what they do is discussing the current beauties, praising heroes and other types of newspapers, rather than introducing how to attract people. The Girls Who Spend Money newspaper sells well.
Looking at the data in black and white, many people were a little dumbfounded.
"how is this possible?"
"Our Cultural News actually lost to Meiliren?"
"What is a beautiful woman?"
……
"...Boss, Beautiful Beauty is a newspaper for women run by the future princess. It introduces popular clothing, makeup and so on."
"Bring me a copy." The man in the white robe frowned, and the shopkeeper in front of him quickly brought in a newspaper. The newspaper was only open on both sides, and he quickly read it. I don't understand.
He looked at the shopkeeper blankly: "Which wife or young lady can't dress up? Why is this newspaper so popular?"
The shopkeeper said that he didn't understand either. He felt that although his wife wore different clothes all day long, her makeup was the same, and he didn't know what she was doing in front of the vanity mirror every day.
Losing to such a newspaper, the bosses behind the newspapers felt a little aggrieved.
The man in white gown went home depressed, only to find that in the back garden, his sisters or nieces were all in the gazebo, a group of maidservants were carrying water basins or bronze mirrors, and on the stone table were A pile of rouge and gouache, and several sets of clothes in bright or elegant colors.
"Rong Niang, what are you doing?" Although the man in white could see what they were doing, he was still a little strange.
The leading woman called Rong Niang was holding an eyebrow pencil to draw eyebrows on the closed-eyed younger sister in front of her. She said without raising her head, "Match Yun Niang with clothes and matching makeup."
The other little ladies who were watching chirped to express their opinions to their brothers and uncles. Halfway through, the man in white understood. The younger sisters and nieces were dressing according to the method taught by the beautiful woman.
The man in white asked calmly, "Is this newspaper good?"
"Of course it's fine. We did what we said above. Recently, we went out to attend a banquet and received a lot of compliments." He got the white eyes of his sisters, and the nieces just lowered their heads and snickered, not daring to laugh at him openly.
Isn't participating in a banquet just for competition?Fighting for father and mother, if you can't fight, there is no way, but you can fight for manners and makeup, and if you succeed, you can arouse the envy and jealousy of others.
After Rongniang put on makeup for her younger sister, she smiled triumphantly and said, "Yunniang, turn around and let brother take a look, isn't it more beautiful?"
The woman called Yun Niang turned around, the man in white blinked, and said after a while: "It's really pretty." The makeup on her face was not too exaggerated. If he didn't know that her sister was wearing makeup, he would not have been able to see that her face was wearing makeup, but his eyes would still be on her unknowingly.
"Brother, is it true?" Yun Niang was a little shy.
The man in white didn't go against his will, he nodded: "It's really pretty."
"Haha, brother, are you scared? Rong Niang, it's my turn." A woman with a square face but particularly protruding cheekbones sat on the bench where Yun Niang was sitting just now.
The sisters and nieces were enthusiastic, but they all ignored the elder brother. It was the first time that the man in white had no sense of presence, so he had to leave silently.
After Yang Ruoxi painted the landscape painting, she spent the next two hours matching the clothes that Tan Qing and Sun Fang brought back. The models were Tan Qing and the others. They were well matched from head to toe, and then they needed to be painted with watercolors. And the best painter is naturally Zhao Qi. Frankly speaking, Zhao Qi is happy to draw such pictures of beauties. He even draws erotic pictures so that his stomach feels sick. If the circulation of the newspaper is good, his bonus will be higher, so he Then there is no need to draw erotic pictures, so Zhao Qi is very serious about drawing beauties.
Until dusk, today's work is finished, but there are more than a dozen sets of clothes, it is not so easy to complete this work, it will take at least four or five days, and Meiliren will issue one issue every ten days, and three issues every month. Give customers enough time to digest, and leave more time for Meiliren to prepare and ensure quality.
Consuming too much brain power today, Yang Ruoxi slept soundly at night, until she was woken up, she was still in a daze, she leaned her face directly on the chest in front of her, squinting her eyes, her thoughts were still disordered.
Li Xie was a little surprised, he patted her cheek, and asked in a low voice: "Yaoyao, Yaoyao?"
She muttered something, but didn't speak, Li Xie raised her eyebrows, and touched her forehead with her hand, her body temperature was normal, that means she didn't have a cold, then she was really tired, so he couldn't wake her up tonight ?
Li Xie didn't disturb her, and planned to sleep quietly with her for an hour or two. He wondered why she was so tired?Many shops, Yaoyao, have delegated their rights to the shopkeepers. There are only a few shops that she needs to personally ask, one is the porcelain kiln and porcelain shop, the other is the embroidery workshop, and the third is the newspaper Meiliren. I don’t know how the situation of Meiliren is?Tomorrow he has to ask Meng Liang, could it be that the beautiful woman is tired of Yaoyao?
Before the time was up, Li Xie quietly left. When the time was right, Yang Ruoxi woke up and felt that something was wrong. She hugged the quilt and thought for a while before remembering that the prince seemed to be here last night?
She tapped her head angrily, why did she sleep so hard?
How about going to the Prince's Mansion to see him during the day?But it seems that he is not often in the Prince's Mansion, that is, the time when he returns to the Prince's Mansion is not fixed. He has too many things to do, and basically rests in the palace. she is gone.
It's a new day, and it's a new busy day, but Yang Ruoxi and Zhao Qi are busy with the content of the next issue of Beautiful Beauty, and it will take about three days to complete.
At the exact moment, two little guests came to Yang's residence, they were Fang Jia and Wei Shuyu, two children who had become good buddies.
However, Yang Ruoxi didn't have time to take care of them, but they didn't make any noise. They sat in a row and watched Tan Qing and the others change their makeup and clothes. Don't think that children don't know how to appreciate them. Eyes are bright.
Speaking of Fang Jia, after this kid was rejected by Li Shimin in the palace last time, he thought in his heart that the red food was delicious, so when he was at home, he really found chili peppers.
Chili is a new condiment. Fang Xuanling and Lu's tone is light, and they don't like spicy food very much, but occasionally they want to eat chili to improve the taste, so the kitchen of Fangfu also prepared chili, and the chef has tasted the flavor of chili. Delicious, that is not spicy.
Fang Jia just jumped around like this, ran to the kitchen and saw the red chili sauce on the panel, but the panel was too high for him to reach, so he gave up after trying several times.
But Fang Xuanling and Lu Shi finally wanted to eat something spicy, so they asked the kitchen to put a plate of chili sauce on the table. The table is not high nowadays, and people either sit cross-legged on the ground or kneel on the ground. Fang Jia’s The small body barely reached the height of the table, and while the parents were not paying attention, he reached out to dip some chili sauce on the plate and put it in his mouth.
The next moment, Fang Jia's cry of breaking through the roof startled Fang Xuanling and Lu Shi. The couple turned their heads and saw the red sauce on the son's lips, and the way his mouth was sticking out with his tongue out. , I was angry and funny for a while.
While feeding his son white water, Mrs. Lu laughed angrily and said, "I told you to steal it, now you know how powerful it is?"
Fang Xuanling looked at his son with a straight face, folded his hands on his chest, and he also found it funny, but he was a little puzzled, why would his son want to taste the chili sauce secretly?
Fang Jia drank a large glass of water, the spicy taste in his mouth and stomach diluted, he also recovered, sobbing, "Why do you eat so happily?"
Am I not happy after eating?
Fang Xuanling raised his eyebrows, and asked, "Who else has a good time eating?" He and his wife don't eat spicy food, so it's definitely not them who aroused his son's curiosity about chili.
Fang Jia wiped her tears and said with sobs: "Uncle Prince, Uncle Qin Wang, Uncle Wei Wang, Uncle Qi Wang, Uncle Chu Wang, and the old man, Uncle Qin Wang won't give me food."
Fang Xuanling and Lu Shi were speechless and asked the sky. The last time their son came back from the palace, they also asked. It seemed that his son did not mention this matter. Fang Xuanling glanced at his son. This kid knows how to play games at such a young age. He has to be cured, otherwise he will not be able to go to heaven?
When Yang Ruoxi and Lu Shi met this funny incident, Lu Shi told her about it while teasing her son, which made Yang Ruoxi feel very funny too.
It was a busy day today, apart from taking a rest for more than an hour at noon, it was so busy until the evening, Zhao Qi returned to Meililiren's office with a bunch of documents, and Yang Ruoxi went out with her two children.
She planned to eat out, and after eating and playing for a while, she would send the two children home. For Fang Jia and Wei Shuyu, they were naturally rejoiced.
The sun was setting and the temperature dropped slightly. Many pedestrians walked and lingered in the streets and alleys.
"Auntie, candied haws!" In the carriage, Yang Ruoxi held the two children in her left and right arms. They leaned against the window, and she had to be careful not to let them fall out.
Then Yang Ruoxi ordered the maid to buy two skewers, the two children just ate them fresh, the candied haws became sour as they got to the back, they wouldn't finish them all, so she wouldn't buy more.
"Brother Yu'er, you can't eat chili, it's very spicy." In the end, he came over and heard the child so seriously persuading Wei Shuyu, and Wei Shuyu said calmly: "Yes, I know."
That time back from the palace, Wei Shuyu tasted it at home in front of his parents. Even the diluted chili was still very spicy!But afterward, I found it very enjoyable. Unfortunately, his parents said that he was too young to eat such spicy food, and he would eat it little by little when he grew up.
Yang Ruoxi looked over and saw a mutton kebab stand, of course not only mutton skewers, but also other meat skewers, the meat skewers were sprinkled with red hot peppers, those strong men in the rivers and lakes just ate it very enjoyable.
Afterwards, the two children shared a bunch of candied haws, and ate one of the other bunches, and Yang Ruoxi ate the remaining two, and the carriage came to Chunfeng Building just like that.
Chunfenglou is the restaurant of Qingyun Pavilion, Yang Ruoxi came here with the thought of meeting Lixie.
This time, the Spring Breeze Building was full of guests, Yang Ruoxi used to go to the second floor, but she saw Yang Ruohua and the others on the second floor, their expressions were not good, as if they had an argument with someone.
This girl Liu He seems to have inexhaustible energy. She, Lu Qian, Sun Fang, and Tan Qing acted separately. It took five days to set up the main personnel needed by the newspaper Meili Liren. The editor-in-chief is a Zhao Qi, a down-and-out scholar who specializes in serving women in brothels and doing makeup, Zhao Qi has a limp leg and a scar on his face. No matter how talented he was, he couldn't become an official. Good painting skills and pictures of erotic palaces, entrusted to sell by brothel bustards, so that money can be made faster, and after a long time, I have a lot of contacts with brothel prostitutes, and I have a lot of experience in women's dressing and dressing, which can be regarded as earning some extra money.

It seems that no matter how much he has been hiding behind the scenes for the sake of fame, he has been known by interested people.He has also read Datang Culture News, but he is very interested in this medium. He never thought that he could be the editor-in-chief of this medium, and the monthly salary is not low. In addition, he provides erotic pictures of brothels, etc., which can make people feel happy. His wife and children had a better life, so Zhao Qi agreed.
Afterwards, Zhao Qi and Liu He were responsible for recruiting people for the newspaper. The people Zhao Qi recruited were basically down-and-out scholars who didn’t pay much attention to some things that the scholars insisted on nowadays. I know, only knowing that they can feed themselves without robbing others is what they need to consider.
Five days later, Zhao Qi, Liu He, and two other recruited scholars went to the Ministry of Rites to apply for approval.

Of course, most of Yang Ruohua's and the others' clothes are from the embroidery houses outside. If this issue of the newspaper is published, it will be tantamount to advertising for those embroidery houses, but this is exactly Yang Ruoxi's purpose.

"Our Cultural News actually lost to Meiliren?"
"What is a beautiful woman?"

"...Boss, Beautiful Beauty is a newspaper for women run by the future princess. It introduces popular clothing, makeup and so on."
"Bring me a copy." The man in the white robe frowned, and the shopkeeper in front of him quickly brought in a newspaper. The newspaper was only open on both sides, and he quickly read it. I don't understand.

Losing to such a newspaper, the bosses behind the newspapers felt a little aggrieved.
The man in white gown went home depressed, only to find that in the back garden, his sisters or nieces were all in the gazebo, a group of maidservants were carrying water basins or bronze mirrors, and on the stone table were A pile of rouge and gouache, and several sets of clothes in bright or elegant colors.
"Rong Niang, what are you doing?" Although the man in white could see what they were doing, he was still a little strange.
The leading woman called Rong Niang was holding an eyebrow pencil to draw eyebrows on the closed-eyed younger sister in front of her. She said without raising her head, "Match Yun Niang with clothes and matching makeup."
The other little ladies who were watching chirped to express their opinions to their brothers and uncles. Halfway through, the man in white understood. The younger sisters and nieces were dressing according to the method taught by the beautiful woman.
The man in white asked calmly, "Is this newspaper good?"
"Of course it's fine. We did what we said above. Recently, we went out to attend a banquet and received a lot of compliments." He got the white eyes of his sisters, and the nieces just lowered their heads and snickered, not daring to laugh at him openly.
Isn't participating in a banquet just for competition?Fighting for father and mother, if you can't fight, there is no way, but you can fight for manners and makeup, and if you succeed, you can arouse the envy and jealousy of others.
After Rongniang put on makeup for her younger sister, she smiled triumphantly and said, "Yunniang, turn around and let brother take a look, isn't it more beautiful?"
The woman called Yun Niang turned around, the man in white blinked, and said after a while: "It's really pretty." The makeup on her face was not too exaggerated. If he didn't know that her sister was wearing makeup, he would not have been able to see that her face was wearing makeup, but his eyes would still be on her unknowingly.
"Brother, is it true?" Yun Niang was a little shy.
The man in white didn't go against his will, he nodded: "It's really pretty."
"Haha, brother, are you scared? Rong Niang, it's my turn." A woman with a square face but particularly protruding cheekbones sat on the bench where Yun Niang was sitting just now.
The sisters and nieces were enthusiastic, but they all ignored the elder brother. It was the first time that the man in white had no sense of presence, so he had to leave silently.
After Yang Ruoxi painted the landscape painting, she spent the next two hours matching the clothes that Tan Qing and Sun Fang brought back. The models were Tan Qing and the others. They were well matched from head to toe, and then they needed to be painted with watercolors. And the best painter is naturally Zhao Qi. Frankly speaking, Zhao Qi is happy to draw such pictures of beauties. He even draws erotic pictures so that his stomach feels sick. If the circulation of the newspaper is good, his bonus will be higher, so he Then there is no need to draw erotic pictures, so Zhao Qi is very serious about drawing beauties.
Until dusk, today's work is finished, but there are more than a dozen sets of clothes, it is not so easy to complete this work, it will take at least four or five days, and Meiliren will issue one issue every ten days, and three issues every month. Give customers enough time to digest, and leave more time for Meiliren to prepare and ensure quality.
Consuming too much brain power today, Yang Ruoxi slept soundly at night, until she was woken up, she was still in a daze, she leaned her face directly on the chest in front of her, squinting her eyes, her thoughts were still disordered.
Li Xie was a little surprised, he patted her cheek, and asked in a low voice: "Yaoyao, Yaoyao?"
She muttered something, but didn't speak, Li Xie raised her eyebrows, and touched her forehead with her hand, her body temperature was normal, that means she didn't have a cold, then she was really tired, so he couldn't wake her up tonight ?
Li Xie didn't disturb her, and planned to sleep quietly with her for an hour or two. He wondered why she was so tired?Many shops, Yaoyao, have delegated their rights to the shopkeepers. There are only a few shops that she needs to personally ask, one is the porcelain kiln and porcelain shop, the other is the embroidery workshop, and the third is the newspaper Meiliren. I don’t know how the situation of Meiliren is?Tomorrow he has to ask Meng Liang, could it be that the beautiful woman is tired of Yaoyao?
Before the time was up, Li Xie quietly left. When the time was right, Yang Ruoxi woke up and felt that something was wrong. She hugged the quilt and thought for a while before remembering that the prince seemed to be here last night?
She tapped her head angrily, why did she sleep so hard?
How about going to the Prince's Mansion to see him during the day?But it seems that he is not often in the Prince's Mansion, that is, the time when he returns to the Prince's Mansion is not fixed. He has too many things to do, and basically rests in the palace. she is gone.
It's a new day, and it's a new busy day, but Yang Ruoxi and Zhao Qi are busy with the content of the next issue of Beautiful Beauty, and it will take about three days to complete.
At the exact moment, two little guests came to Yang's residence, they were Fang Jia and Wei Shuyu, two children who had become good buddies.
However, Yang Ruoxi didn't have time to take care of them, but they didn't make any noise. They sat in a row and watched Tan Qing and the others change their makeup and clothes. Don't think that children don't know how to appreciate them. Eyes are bright.
Speaking of Fang Jia, after this kid was rejected by Li Shimin in the palace last time, he thought in his heart that the red food was delicious, so when he was at home, he really found chili peppers.
Chili is a new condiment. Fang Xuanling and Lu's tone is light, and they don't like spicy food very much, but occasionally they want to eat chili to improve the taste, so the kitchen of Fangfu also prepared chili, and the chef has tasted the flavor of chili. Delicious, that is not spicy.
Fang Jia just jumped around like this, ran to the kitchen and saw the red chili sauce on the panel, but the panel was too high for him to reach, so he gave up after trying several times.
But Fang Xuanling and Lu Shi finally wanted to eat something spicy, so they asked the kitchen to put a plate of chili sauce on the table. The table is not high nowadays, and people either sit cross-legged on the ground or kneel on the ground. Fang Jia’s The small body barely reached the height of the table, and while the parents were not paying attention, he reached out to dip some chili sauce on the plate and put it in his mouth.
The next moment, Fang Jia's cry of breaking through the roof startled Fang Xuanling and Lu Shi. The couple turned their heads and saw the red sauce on the son's lips, and the way his mouth was sticking out with his tongue out. , I was angry and funny for a while.
While feeding his son white water, Mrs. Lu laughed angrily and said, "I told you to steal it, now you know how powerful it is?"
Fang Xuanling looked at his son with a straight face, folded his hands on his chest, and he also found it funny, but he was a little puzzled, why would his son want to taste the chili sauce secretly?
Fang Jia drank a large glass of water, the spicy taste in his mouth and stomach diluted, he also recovered, sobbing, "Why do you eat so happily?"
Am I not happy after eating?
Fang Xuanling raised his eyebrows, and asked, "Who else has a good time eating?" He and his wife don't eat spicy food, so it's definitely not them who aroused his son's curiosity about chili.
Fang Jia wiped her tears and said with sobs: "Uncle Prince, Uncle Qin Wang, Uncle Wei Wang, Uncle Qi Wang, Uncle Chu Wang, and the old man, Uncle Qin Wang won't give me food."
Fang Xuanling and Lu Shi were speechless and asked the sky. The last time their son came back from the palace, they also asked. It seemed that his son did not mention this matter. Fang Xuanling glanced at his son. This kid knows how to play games at such a young age. He has to be cured, otherwise he will not be able to go to heaven?
When Yang Ruoxi and Lu Shi met this funny incident, Lu Shi told her about it while teasing her son, which made Yang Ruoxi feel very funny too.
It was a busy day today, apart from taking a rest for more than an hour at noon, it was so busy until the evening, Zhao Qi returned to Meililiren's office with a bunch of documents, and Yang Ruoxi went out with her two children.
She planned to eat out, and after eating and playing for a while, she would send the two children home. For Fang Jia and Wei Shuyu, they were naturally rejoiced.
The sun was setting and the temperature dropped slightly. Many pedestrians walked and lingered in the streets and alleys.
"Auntie, candied haws!" In the carriage, Yang Ruoxi held the two children in her left and right arms. They leaned against the window, and she had to be careful not to let them fall out.
Then Yang Ruoxi ordered the maid to buy two skewers, the two children just ate them fresh, the candied haws became sour as they got to the back, they wouldn't finish them all, so she wouldn't buy more.
"Brother Yu'er, you can't eat chili, it's very spicy." In the end, he came over and heard the child so seriously persuading Wei Shuyu, and Wei Shuyu said calmly: "Yes, I know."
That time back from the palace, Wei Shuyu tasted it at home in front of his parents. Even the diluted chili was still very spicy!But afterward, I found it very enjoyable. Unfortunately, his parents said that he was too young to eat such spicy food, and he would eat it little by little when he grew up.
Yang Ruoxi looked over and saw a mutton kebab stand, of course not only mutton skewers, but also other meat skewers, the meat skewers were sprinkled with red hot peppers, those strong men in the rivers and lakes just ate it very enjoyable.
Afterwards, the two children shared a bunch of candied haws, and ate one of the other bunches, and Yang Ruoxi ate the remaining two, and the carriage came to Chunfeng Building just like that.
Chunfenglou is the restaurant of Qingyun Pavilion, Yang Ruoxi came here with the thought of meeting Lixie.
This time, the Spring Breeze Building was full of guests, Yang Ruoxi used to go to the second floor, but she saw Yang Ruohua and the others on the second floor, their expressions were not good, as if they had an argument with someone.
