Chapter 501: The Princess and the Shadow 11
It’s said that bellybands are too subtle, just a few shoulder straps, it doesn’t feel much different from not wearing clothes... No... It seems to be worse than not wearing clothes.
Alice handed the drawing directly to the woman.
The woman blushed as expected: "This..."
Alice raised her eyelashes, "I want to attract your husband\'s attention, wear this, as long as he is a normal man, he won\'t be unresponsive,"
The woman was startled by her remarks. After a long time, she covered her face and was about to run away.
Alice said slowly: "This is a new benefit launched by our store. Buy five sets of clothes and you can get a set of this **** underwear. Anyway, it doesn\'t cost money. Madam might as well take it back first. If you don\'t want to wear it, it\'s okay to throw it away. .”
The woman stopped unconsciously, and played back the classic sales quote "It doesn\'t cost money anyway" in her mind. In less than a moment, self-hypnosis was completed. In the end, he quickly dropped the deposit and ran away in a hurry.
Alice took the silver, and smiled helplessly: "You Han women are too reserved!"
Shen Mingjiao recovered from the shock, "Uh... there are some bolder ones too!"
Alice squinted at her: "The boldness you said is also based on pleasing men."
Well, she can\'t answer that, after all, the two countries have different ideas. She quickly changed the subject: "Mother, you said that you want to add a special section in the store, what is it?"
After speaking, I saw the rice paper on the table, what did I realize? His eyes widened in surprise.
Alice glanced at her in disdain, and nodded affirmatively: "Well, that\'s what you think. There\'s an extra section for underwear in the store,"
Shen Mingjiao: "...I\'m afraid no one will buy it!"
After all, the relatively intimate things such as inner clothes and bellybands are all made at home, and it is never possible to buy them outside.
Alice picked up a charcoal pen and drew on the paper: "Then just don\'t sell it, buy five clothes and get one free, buy ten and get three free.
Don\'t worry, you will never lose money. Everything has to be a gradual process,"
Shen Mingjiao naturally knows that she will not lose money. She is also good at doing business and knows how to maximize marketing. only…
She stared at the drawings on the table, and asked hesitantly, "Is this really that effective?"
"Of course, you will know after a while."
Two quarters of an hour later, the attendant brought a cloth bag. Alice took the cloth bag and opened it. Inside was a beautifully wrapped square gift box.
Alice pulled him to the compartment on the second floor, opened it, and inside was a set of red tulle pajamas, which were so thin that they were almost transparent.
Patted Shen Mingjiao on the shoulder: "Everyone is a woman, so don\'t be shy."
Finally, Shen Mingjiao walked into the fitting room in a daze with the box in her arms. It wasn\'t a question of shyness or not. She always felt that it was a bit strange to discuss such things with her mother-in-law.
But what shocked her was yet to come.
At this time, she changed her clothes with the help of the maid. The maid was named Karin, and she was a very smiling girl. Seeing Shen Mingjiao who had changed her clothes, Karin couldn\'t help covering her mouth and exclaiming.
Shen Mingjiao looked down, oh, sure enough! All the places that shouldn\'t be exposed are exposed!
She clutched her chest and left the fitting room. There was a western glass mirror half as tall as a person at the door. Looking at herself in the mirror, she froze for a moment.
Shen Mingjiao\'s figure is already excellent, but she gained a little weight when she was born in An\'an, and she has lost weight in the past few years, and she is even more...exquisite and graceful,
Now that she is wearing this dress, women can\'t help but take a few extra glances.
Alice nodded in satisfaction: "Wendy has a good eye."
Added another sentence at the end: "Shengsheng is very blessed."
Shen Mingjiao: "..." Uh... She really can\'t answer those words.
…
After finally bypassing this topic, Alice was idle and bored, and drew design drawings with her.
Both of them are proficient in this way, and they chatted very speculatively for a while.
After dinner, and out of the Beautiful Pavilion, Shen Mingjiao suggested: "Concubine Mother hasn\'t visited the capital much yet, why don\'t you go shopping while it\'s still early!" Although it seems that Alice is quite familiar with the capital.
Alice got on the horse, and although she was over half a century old, there was an indescribable snappyness in her movements: "Okay, let me open your eyes."
Shen Mingjiao also simply changed to riding a horse. After getting along with each other for the past few days, the two of them are quite familiar. Hearing this, he raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "At least I have been in the capital these years, and there is basically nothing I am not familiar with."
However, half an hour later, looking at the three words "Nanfeng Pavilion" shining golden under the pink silk tassel in front of him, he fell silent.
Shen Mingjiao swallowed her saliva, and asked tentatively: "Mother and Concubine, did we go wrong? Do you know where this is?"
Alice glanced at her in disgust: "Look at your promise!
Don\'t worry, if you don\'t tell me, I won\'t tell, how would Shengsheng know? "
Shen Mingjiao felt a little incapable of accepting it for a while: "This is not a question of whether to say it or not!"
The mother-in-law brought her daughter-in-law to the Nanfeng Pavilion. Does anyone believe it?
Alice: "Don\'t talk nonsense, get in quickly.
Didn’t you Han people have a saying that when you come, you have to go in and have a look! "
After finishing speaking, he lifted his foot and was about to walk to the lobby.
"Alas..."
Shen Mingjiao hurriedly stopped him, "It\'s not easy for us to go through the main entrance."
Alice turned her head in doubt: "Why? Isn\'t the main door open for people to enter?"
"Hey, what should I say?
The guests who come here are mostly men who are good at Longyang. Generally, this kind of people don\'t have any scruples, and they will go directly to the main entrance.
But the petty officials here not only receive male guests, but also female guests. It\'s just that there are relatively few female customers, usually widows or women in their thirties. The women who have the courage to come here are generally not short of money, and go directly to the private room on the second floor through the hidden back door. For those who are interested, a yard is arranged nearby, which is extremely concealed. "
Even a princess can’t go to a male brothel in a big way, and the face-raiser has to cover up her identity as a guest in the mansion,
If she dared to go in through the main entrance with Alice. In less than half a day, the gossip news that King Su and his wife were in harmony with each other, and the gossip that Princess Su boldly visited the Nanfeng Hall definitely spread all over the capital.
Alice raised her eyebrows: "Jiaojiao knows a lot?"
Shen Mingjiao smiled: "If you haven\'t eaten pork, how can you see a pig running!"
Finally, Shen Mingjiao ordered Tie Zhu to go over to make arrangements, but Tie Zhu stopped talking for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Princess, don\'t worry, this subordinate won\'t tell His Highness! But you..."
Shen Mingjiao waved her hand and promised: "Don\'t worry, we will only watch and do nothing else!"
Tie Zhu: "..." I always feel that there is something wrong with this statement?
Not long after, the shopkeeper of the Nanfeng Restaurant ran over, wiping his sweat. He begged sadly:
"Princess Wangfei, our store is full of vulgar fans, you don\'t like it. How about...you go to the one opposite! The men in his house are all powerful, gentle and considerate. Please." ..." The last sentence almost brought tears.
Can you stop crying? If he dared to introduce Mr. Lang to Concubine Su today, it would be easy for his shop to close before tomorrow.
Alice proudly took out a certain amount of gold from her waist and threw it into the shopkeeper\'s arms:
"Don\'t be nervous, I\'m Feng Lisheng\'s mother. Bring my daughter-in-law here to see the world today. I\'ll take care of anything."
After speaking, he put his arms around Shen Mingjiao\'s shoulders, and waved his hands imposingly: "Arrange all the good-looking young men in your store."
Haitang and the other maidservants stared at each other: "..." Wow! Her Majesty is so mighty?
…
Shen Mingjiao entered the best private room near the window on the second floor of Nanfeng Hall in a daze. It was already evening, and the building was bustling. A slender and beautiful boy was dancing, accompanied by a white-clothed luthier.
It was the first time for Shen Mingjiao to watch a man dance, so she couldn\'t help but take a second look curiously.
Alice leaned against the window, watching the commotion, but her mind seemed to be wandering outside.
Seeing her like this, I couldn\'t help but smile: "Pretty?"
Shen Mingjiao regained consciousness. He picked up the teapot and made a cup of tea for the two of them respectively, and answered pertinently:
"I just feel fresh. These teenagers are good-looking, but they are too thin." Or...feminine.
Personally, she prefers men with a little masculinity.
Just as I was thinking this way, I saw the curtain of a ring downstairs was lifted, and four or five shirtless tall men came onto the stage. With the sound of the gong, two or two began to wrestle.
Shen Mingjiao glanced casually. These men\'s facial features were upright and resolute, and their muscular arm muscles tensed up as they fought with each other, giving people the most intuitive sense of strength and beauty.
Watching Feng Wu\'s martial arts competition often, after so many years, she has also seen some tricks. These people seem to fight seriously, but they are just putting on airs.
But I saw Alice\'s eyes linger on a man with many scars on the arm on the stage for a few more breaths, but there was not much obsession in her eyes, only a little dazed, as if she was temporarily caught in some kind of memory.
Shen Mingjiao peeled an orange for her, and tentatively said: "If the mother concubine likes it, why don\'t you call someone over?"
Alice came back to her senses, took the orange and gently broke a piece into her mouth. It was sour and sweet, but the bitterness was missing. She looked out the window in a daze, "Want to hear a story?"
Shen Mingjiao\'s eyes lit up, and she nodded generously.
Alice didn\'t look back: "I don\'t have anything to say, I\'ll tell you when I\'m free..."
Before she finished her sentence, she fixed her gaze,
Shen Mingjiao followed her line of sight, and through the open window, she saw An An bouncing ahead on the wide and busy road, with crowds passing by from time to time, and Jing Qi pulling her behind, always avoiding the crowd precisely. over the crowd.
Shen Ming gritted his teeth coquettishly: "This girl is getting more and more wild."
Alice smiled: "It\'s pretty good, kid, it\'s better to be more lively."
At this moment, Jing Qi, who was following An An, seemed to feel something and raised her head suddenly.
Seeing the figure in front of the window, astonishment flashed in his eyes, then he seemed to glance at the plaque at the door, hesitated for a moment, and dragged An An away.
Alice withdrew her gaze and praised: "This child has good insight." After finishing speaking, she paused for a moment and asked:
"Is this An An\'s shadow guard?"
"No, he is the child of a friend of ours, and his father was the secret guard of the former crown prince.
We felt that this child had a good heart, so we adopted him as a foster son. "
As if guessing what she was going to ask, Shen Mingjiao smiled and said, "I don\'t intend to marry the two children deliberately, but if the two really see each other in the future, we parents will not object."
Just based on her intuition, the two children are probably useless.
Alice took a sip of her tea: "It\'s pretty good,"
She was fascinated by the disappearing figures of the two children outside the window, as if looking for some pictures in the memory through them.
Shen Mingjiao secretly sighed, these days, Alice seemed to have relieved her burden and lived a carefree life.
However, An An asked her in private, is grandma unhappy?
At this time, one of Alice\'s attendants knocked on the door and came in, handing over a letter.
Alice frowned after reading the letter.
Shen Mingjiao asked worriedly: "What happened?"
"It\'s nothing serious. Before Wendy left, she encountered some difficult things and couldn\'t leave for the time being. But with her current ability, it shouldn\'t matter."
Shen Mingjiao breathed a sigh of relief: "That\'s good."
It\'s just that An An will be disappointed.
…
On the other side, Jing Qi dragged An An away in a hurry until turning around the alley, An An broke away from Jing Qi\'s hand and asked strangely:
"Why did you pull me away suddenly? Didn\'t we agree to see the little rabbit?"
Jingqi whispered: "I just saw my foster mother, and Her Majesty the Empress."
An An stood up straight reflexively, shrinking her shoulders with lingering fear: "Mother didn\'t see me, did she?"
Jingqi: "What do you think?"
An An drooped her head in frustration: "Hey! I have to write a review again!"
Jingqi comforted her after thinking for a while: "Didn\'t you say that your aunt is coming back? Usually when there are guests at home, adults will not punish children in front of the guests,"
An An\'s eyes lit up: "It seems so! Then let\'s go back quickly."
…
At the gate of King Su\'s Mansion.
The doorman was eating melon seeds, glancing at the door from time to time, chatting gossip with his companions.
While chatting to the point of interest, I only heard the sound of horseshoes in the distance, which seemed to be approaching the gate of King Su\'s mansion.
The two gatekeepers stood up vigilantly,
Not long after, I saw a woman in black riding a fast horse, followed by two men dressed as attendants. The woman pulled the reins of the horse in front of Su Wang\'s mansion.
After seeing the woman\'s appearance clearly, the two young men were taken aback for a moment, then hurried forward and respectfully called "Miss Fuguang".
The woman got off her horse, and said a faint "hmm": "Where is Princess Ning\'an?"
"The princess and Mr. Jingqi went out to play, why don\'t you let someone tell you?"
"No need, it\'s nothing serious."
After saying that, he rode into the mansion.
After the backs of the three disappeared, the two concierge boys sat down again, and one of them frowned and asked his companion:
"Do you think the floating girl you just met is a bit strange?"
They are all old people in the house, so they are no strangers to Fuguang.
"What\'s so strange? Isn\'t the floating girl always like this? And I heard that the floating girl is now the queen, she must be more majestic than before!"
The boy who asked the question scratched his head: "Is that so?"
Another quarter of an hour later, Jing Qi led An An back, walked to the door, An An smiled and waved to the two servants. "Uncle Zhang San, Uncle Li Si."
"Hey, the princess came back early today!
By the way, princess, didn\'t you always say you were looking for your aunt? The floating girl just came back. "
An An\'s eyes lit up when she heard the words, and she dragged Jing Qi into the mansion.
She is finally going to meet her aunt!
