The splendid countryside of the princess

Chapter 147 For investigation, Tang Dai accidentally entered the Huangfu
"Then where he lives, can you tell me?" Tang Dai looked at his face, and changed his words since the man did not seem to be lying.

"Yes, yes, I'll tell you, as long as you don't let me lead the way."

After the man told Tang and Dai the address of Mr. Huang's house and Huang's mansion, Tang Dai released him.I can't help but secretly rejoice in my heart, it really is a girl, my heart is soft!As soon as he begged, he was released, and he could find out about the Huangfu without asking, just by asking around outside.

And looking at the back of the man secretly delighted, when he left the small courtyard, Tang Dai called the shadow out.

"Miss?"

"Go, keep up, and see where he went? Who did he contact?"

"Yes." The shadow disappeared into the small courtyard.

"Miss, are we still going out?"

"Go out, how can you not go out, it's hard to come here, I have to go out and have a look, let's go."

Tang Dai took Xiaoqing and walked to the street. Shanghui Mansion was worthy of being the imperial capital of the former dynasty, and it was also the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties. The buildings on the side of the road were antique and fragrant, and they were mottled after hundreds of years of wind and rain. Refutation, telling the colorful years and rich history of the past.

"Miss, isn't this place worse than the capital?" Xiaoqing sighed after seeing it.

"That's right. I didn't hear from my uncle. Is this the ancient capital? When we entered the gate, you saw the tall and majestic ancient city wall. I don't know which dynasty built it?"

"That's right. Miss, shall we just walk around like this?"

"How can you walk around blindly. Find someone to ask, let's go to the Huang Mansion and see where the monsters live."

After asking the direction of Huang's Mansion, the road is still a bit far away, but luckily the two of them were not in a hurry and walked there slowly, just enjoying the scenery of the ancient capital.

As expected of Huang's Mansion, Huang's Mansion has to pass through a large downtown area, with shops of all kinds lined up on both sides of the street, where there is a lot of food, drink, housing and clothing.Suddenly, Tang Dai was attracted by a small stall exuding her familiar fragrance, turned around and walked over.Xiaoqing followed and saw that it was a baked sweet potato.

"Fresh roasted sweet potatoes are sweet, fragrant and glutinous. If they don't taste good, they don't cost money!..."

The sweet potato seller saw many people gathered in front of his stall, all vying to buy his sweet potatoes, and shouted harder.Tang Dai didn't expect that in this era, there were people who thought of such a good way to make money, so they squeezed past them in surprise.In her previous life, she especially liked to eat roasted sweet potatoes, which were sweet and glutinous, with a slippery texture.

"Boss, give me two." Tang Dai squeezed into the crowd and yelled at the boss. She hadn't eaten for a long time, and her saliva was drooling.

"Okay, girl, do you want a big one or a small one?"

"I'll pick... this one, this one... yes, yes, just these two, not too big and not too small, and soft to the touch. This kind of one is the tastiest."

"Ha, girl, you are an expert, and you picked the best two in the bunch!"

"Ha, blind pick, blind pick..."

"Come on, little girl, take it, a total of ten copper coins." The boss wrapped the sweet potato and handed it to Tang Dai.

"Boss, I will pay for this little girl's sweet potato money."

Tang Dai was about to take money out of her pocket to pay the bill, but she didn't want a voice to come from beside her. Tang Dai looked up and saw a rich man around 20 years old, dressed in brocade clothes, with a handsome figure, followed by a young servant, who was not badly dressed .

"Thank you for your kindness, young master. The so-called no work without work, although the money is not much, but I met the young master by chance, and I have never met each other. It is better for me to pay for it myself."

"Little girl, don't worry, because you don't know how to pick good or bad sweet potatoes. Seeing that the girl is very knowledgeable, so I want to ask the girl to help me pick it out, and paying the money for you is not worthless. ?”

"Heh..." Tang Dai smiled secretly, another one who was looking for an excuse to flirt with girls, who said that ancient people are old antiques?I think it is better than modern people know this way!
"Since the young master said so, I will help you pick one." After Tang Dai finished speaking, she picked out two good ones for the young master from the pile.

"Is two sticks enough?"

"That's enough, thank you girl. From the girl's accent, isn't she a local?" The young man took the sweet potato, signaled the servant behind him to pay the money, and asked Tang Dai a question pretending not to care.

"My son is right, I am not a local."

"My son is very happy to be the girl's guide, how about taking the girl for a walk around Shanghui Mansion?"

"Thank you, my lord. Let's take a casual walk. Farewell!" Tang Dai directly refused, took Xiaoqing and turned to leave.

Seeing that young man in brocade clothes, he stopped pestering him and left with his servant.

Tang Dai ate the roasted sweet potato sweetly, Xiaoqing also took another one, put it in her mouth and chewed slowly.

"Miss, look... the Huang Mansion is in front of you, right? It's the same as what the passer-by described."

"Uh, uh..." Tang Dai stuffed her mouth with roasted sweet potatoes, and nodded repeatedly, indicating that it should be.

"Heh...Miss, do you like this very much?" Xiao Qing asked knowingly as she looked at the puffed-up mouth of the lady, who was as cute as a little mouse.

"Hey, girl, we are destined, I don't want to meet you again!"

Listening to the sound coming from her ears, Tang Dai who was eating a big mouthful of sweet potatoes almost choked to death, rolled her eyes, and beat her chest vigorously with her fat white right paw.

"Miss, what's the matter with you? Ah, I'm choking, eat slowly!" Seeing Tang Dai's appearance, Xiaoqing hurried forward in fright, and raised her hand to pat her on the back.

"Cough...cough..."

After a long while, Tang Dai coughed out, oh my god, I almost choked to death eating sweet potatoes.If she chokes to death, it is estimated that there will be no one in the past, and there will be no one in the future. She will become the only person in history who choked to death from eating sweet potatoes, and maybe she will be famous forever!

"Hey, you bastard, you speak out early, and you don't speak out at night. Auntie, you talk when I eat sweet potatoes. What kind of fart is fate? I almost died because of fate!" Tang Dai, who was relieved, pointed The young master in brocade clothes in front of him was furious and jumped to curse.

"I... I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, girl, you see my house is right in front of you, please give me a favor, go to my house for a cup of tea, take your time, how about expressing my apology to you, Mrs. Huang?!"

"Your surname is Huang? Huangfu is your home?" Tang Dai looked suspiciously at the person in front of her. This scholar doesn't look like that monster?

"Yes, my surname is Huang. The girl can call me Mr. Huang. Huang's mansion is my home."

"Okay, for the sake of your sincerity, this girl happened to be choking on you just now, and wanted to drink some water to breathe slowly. My surname is Tang, and you can just call me Miss Tang. Oh, this is my maid, It's Xiaoqing."

"Miss Tang, Miss Xiaoqing, please."

Tang Dai and Xiaoqing followed the young man in brocade clothes to the Huang Mansion, thinking about the affairs of the world, why is it such a coincidence!She just wanted to go into Huang's mansion to investigate, when someone invited them in.

Exactly, someone gave me a pillow when I was dozing off!She can walk in without having to think twice.

Entering Huang's mansion, following Mr. Huang, walking through the veranda, Tang Dai looked up and saw that there were luxurious pavilions, terraces and pavilions, lakeside pavilions, rockery and stone carvings, everything that one expects to find.

The spring breeze brings warmth, the lake is rippling, and there are pairs of swans and mandarin ducks floating on the lake, playing in the water... On the shore, green willows are blowing on the embankment, and there are colorful flowers, pink, peach red, pink white, pure white...

Tang Dai looked at it, and couldn't help being dumbfounded in her heart. If she hadn't come here today with other plans, she would have been fascinated by the scenery of lakes and mountains, the abundance of flowers, and the prosperity.　
"Miss Tang, Miss Xiaoqing, here we are, please."

Mr. Huang stopped in front of a main courtyard, and the two of them followed him into the hall. A servant girl had already come to wait on them, and the three of them had just sat down, tea and snacks were all ready, and the servants were well-trained.

The layout of the hall is also extremely luxurious, giving people the feeling from the beginning to the end that it is the practice of the aristocratic family, but there is an illusion that painting a tiger is not like a dog.

"Girls, don't be restrained, please have tea." Mr. Huang was very polite.

"..." Tang Dai.

Which eye of yours sees the girl, I'm restrained?Your yard is good, but some modern places are good?There are many good places the girl has been to, more than this.And, and, is there a palace, please?Even girls in the imperial palace can go on a rampage!
Without saying a word, he brought the tea and took a sip, um, the tea is not bad, but, isn't this tea the tribute!Is this trying to test someone with tea to see her origin?
"Good tea! As expected of Huang Mansion, known as the most beautiful home of Shanghui Mansion, even the tea we drink is so different." Tang Dai put down the white jade teacup in her hand, and said calmly.

"Excellent, excellent. I have always thought that I have a good eye, and I still haven't missed it today. Miss Tang is really extraordinary, and can recognize this tea."

"Don't dare, I can't be praised by Mr. Huang. The little girl just loves tea, and happened to drink this tea at a friend's house occasionally, so I know it."

"The girl's friend is not simple!"

"It's not easy. It's not easy to entertain me with this tea. It's an ordinary guest. It must be Mr. Huang's family, and Huang's mansion is even more difficult."

"Heh...Miss Tang is ice-snow and smart. Huang's family is just doing business. They have a little extra money and have made some wealthy friends."

That Mr. Huang wanted to test Tang Dai, but he didn't want to hurt the enemy a thousand and hurt himself by eight hundred. Tang Dai told him the way, so he had to smile awkwardly and explain.

"Excuse me, I don't know Mr. Huang, what is your status in this mansion?"

"As soon as I saw the girl, I felt familiar. After talking for a long time, I forgot to introduce myself. It was really negligent. I am the second son of this Huangfu. I have an elder brother and a younger sister. On weekdays, because I know a little about poetry and books Chess painting, I like to make friends with it. It’s so leisurely and elegant. It’s not as good as my elder brother. He has been practicing literature and martial arts since he was a child. Because he wants to take charge of the family business, he works harder than me. I'm only good at female celebrities, so let's not talk about it."

"Oh. It turns out to be the second son of Huang's mansion. No wonder when I saw you, I felt that you are elegant and knowledgeable. It turns out that you are a person of this way. The little girl also likes chess. Now that the second son of Huang likes it, I suddenly feel itchy. I also ask Second Young Master Huang to give me some advice, how about our next game?"

"Miss Tang is amazing! I don't want Miss Tang to always surprise people, so let's play a game!"

When Second Master Huang heard that Tang Daixi played chess, he was pleasantly surprised and ordered the young man beside him to go to his study to fetch his chess pieces and chessboard.

The reason why Tang Dai suggested playing chess was because she was confident in her chess skills, so she could get close to Second Young Master Huang, and if she got close to Second Young Master Huang, she would be close to Huang's mansion.

Hearing the introduction of Second Young Master Huang just now, the person who hurt my uncle is most likely Second Young Master Huang's elder brother, First Young Master Huang!

Soon, the servant brought chess pieces from the chessboard and placed them on the long table. Tang Dai and Mr. Huang, one on the left and one on the right, sat facing each other. One held the white and the other held the black.

It wasn't until Tang Dai's stomach growled that the sweet potatoes that he ate before were completely digested in his stomach, and the two of them stopped. Although the second young master Huang lost four out of five games, Tang Dai quietly let him win one game. , but still hesitated, and wanted to keep Tang Dai and her master and servant to have lunch at his house and fight again in the afternoon.

Tang Dai disagreed, saying that after being outside for a long time, her family would be anxious and had to go back.

The Second Young Master Huang had no choice but to personally send Tang Dai and his master and servant out of the mansion reluctantly. Along the way, he told Tang Dai to come to his house tomorrow to play chess and drink tea. He waited for him at home because he asked where Tang Dai lived. Tang Dai turned away and didn't answer. Being smart, he knew Miss Tang didn't want to tell, so he stopped asking.

The three of them arrived outside the gate of Huang's mansion very quickly, and Tang Dai, who said goodbye, was about to turn around and go back to her little uncle's small courtyard, when she saw a carriage stopped in front of them, and a man got out of the carriage.

"Brother, why did you return home so early today?" Second Young Master Huang asked the man.

When Tang Dai heard this, she shuddered and stopped her steps to leave, big brother?That is Mr. Huang!
Looking up at that person, this person is tall and domineering, his face is five points similar to that of Mr. Tang Er, but his temperament is completely one in the sky and the other in the ground.The second son of the Tang Dynasty was a scholarly scholar, but this person exuded a vicious and domineering aura.

"The matter is over, go back to the mansion early. What are you doing at the gate of the mansion?" Mr. Huang replied to his younger brother in a cold voice.

"Oh, I met a chess friend by chance today. She just came out of playing chess at home. I'll give her a gift."

"Chess friend? Where are you? Gone?" Mr. Huang's eagle eyes swept over Tang Dai's master and servant who was standing there. He thought his younger brother's chess friends were not the two little girls, so he asked casually.

"Oh, it's those two little girls. Miss Tang, let me introduce you. This is the outstanding elder brother I told you about." Second Young Master Huang said to Tang Dai who hadn't left yet.

Tang Dai didn't dodge either, she brought Xiao Qing to salute that Mr. Huang.

"My little girl has met Mr. Huang."

"Girl, are you my brother's chess friend?" Mr. Huang asked suspiciously.

"Exactly."

"Oh, big brother, don't underestimate Miss Tang, she is small, but she is good at chess!"

"yes?……"

"If the little girl doesn't go back, the family will be in a hurry. Two young masters, take your leave."

Tang Dai didn't want to entangle any more. Her purpose of coming here today has been achieved. Next, she has to play with them well. and go.

"Oh, interesting, interesting..." Mr. Huang looked at the back of Tang Dai's master and servant walking away, and said two interesting words in succession!
"Brother... you?" Second Young Master Huang was a little puzzled when he saw the strange behavior of his elder brother.

"Where did you meet those two girls?"

"Oh, I just met today when I was buying roasted sweet potatoes on the street. I saw that little one with a delicate face, smart and cute, and an extraordinary temperament, so I paid attention to it. At that time, I had a conversation by picking sweet potatoes. After we parted, I didn't think about it. We met again at the gate of the mansion..." Second Young Master Huang talked about how he met Tang Dai today.

"Can you tell me about her background?"　
"The origin is not simple. When I specially ordered my servants to entertain her, I used tea leaves from the palace to entertain her, but I didn't want her to know that it was something from the palace after just one sip, and deduce from this that our mansion is related to the palace. There is also a connection in it. I was reckless."

"Heh... It's kind of interesting, it's okay. Who in Shanghui Manor doesn't know that the concubine Xian in the palace is our cousin. How about playing chess later?"

"She is top-notch in chess. She can defeat me easily and casually. I'm afraid Feng Nanguo has no one to match her. Even the two above may only be able to draw with her."

"So amazing! Who the hell is she? I haven't heard of Feng Nanguo recently. How can there be such a talented little girl!..."

"She's not from our Shanghui Mansion. Where is her hometown? You can ask her when she comes back tomorrow."

"Well... we must investigate clearly. She suddenly appeared here and tried to approach our Huangfu. She must have another purpose, so we have to guard against it. Whether it is an enemy or a friend, we have to be careful."

"Brother, it's not as mysterious as what you said. I met her by coincidence today, and I was curious about her, so I forced her into the mansion. How could she approach our mansion on her own initiative? ?You think too much."

"Okay, I don't have the time to take care of your affairs, anyway, you have to be careful. Be careful, don't invite trouble into the mansion." After finishing speaking, the eldest son Huang ignored the second son Huang, turned and entered the mansion.
