Beloved at the Door - Chapter 3.5
Shangguan Yan knew that he was not good, and immediately turned around and ordered Tao Lang. “Clearance!”
At the request of her, Tao Lang turned his hands and feet quickly and turned to the public, with a smile and a hand.
“Everyone, in order to give back to the neighbors, this inn has good tea as a gift. If you want, please move to the next door.”
The inn has always been close to neighbors, and will not do things that drive people away, but use greater temptation to coax people away, not to sin against people, but also to gain a good reputation, and business is always prosperous.
When the people heard it, they saw where the excitement was cheaper and easier to take, and immediately followed Taolang to the other side of the inn.
Taking advantage of this noisy moment, Shangguan Yan hurriedly stepped forward and said to Di Jing: “Please also ask the son to keep it secret, and don’t let people know that I was dressed as a woman.”
Di Jing was startled. “Pretending to be a lady?”
“Yes, it’s shameful for a big man to be dressed as a woman. I don’t want to let people know that I have this habit. I also ask the son to help keep it secret. Please please.” She looked ashamed and asked him with her hands folded.
Di Jing was stunned, disguised as a woman? He stared at this face in disbelief.
“Are you a man?”
“The son doesn’t know anything. He is just for the sake of eating. The family is in a difficult situation. There are fathers and young children at the top, and he can’t help himself.”
While pretending to be pitiful, she begged him with her eyes, and looked at the nine princes from the corner of her eyes. She didn’t want her identity as a woman disguised as a man to be exposed to the public.
When she was a man, the nine princes loved to cling to her. If she knew that she was a female, she would not want to be the concubine of the prince.
Fortunately, there was a mess in Shicai’s house, and Di Jing’s voice was not loud. The Ninth Prince was drunk again. He probably hadn’t heard Di Jing calling her a girl, but even if she was heard, she still had a way to get her words back.
The room was cleared. The guys closed the door to cut off the outside view. Now only her, the Ninth Prince and Di Jing are left in the house.
As soon as the people watching the show left, she immediately changed her words and said, “In order not to disturb the quietness of the son, it is good to change your room to the backyard? There are gardens, a pavilion, and the room is bigger. Please also ask the son to agree to my unsympathy. please.”
It’s easy to get rid of the upper body when doing business, so Shangguan Yan has always been smooth, and the struggle between men’s spirits involves face issues. At this time, it’s not good to drive anyone away. It’s better to give a better temptation. Sinner, secondly, she also saved the face of both parties. She planned to invite Di Jing to the independent courtyard at the back of the inn, and then turn her head to solve the Nine Princes.
Obviously a woman disguised as a man, she would say that she was a man disguised as a woman. Unless she had a medical examination, she would not believe it. Di Jing would not be believed. Besides, it wouldn’t make people feel like a woman pretending to be a man, but it would be embarrassing for a man to wear women’s clothing. In addition, she deliberately approached him, as if he didn’t agree, her “man” was about to stick.
Sure enough, after seeing her say this, his expression changed.
“Okay, change it.”
Di Jing turned sideways and pulled a little distance away, turning his face away, but he was disappointed again in his heart. He didn’t expect that the other party was actually a man. In this way, it was even more unlikely that it was her.
His face was cold and he didn’t look at her again.
Shangguan Yan had a smile on his face and didn’t care about his indifference. This was exactly what she wanted. She ordered a buddy to lead Di Jing and the two to the backyard. After they left, she turned and walked towards the Ninth Prince.
“How boring to drink alone, why not drink with you.” She sat down, picked up the flask and poured wine into the glass of the nine princes, and drank it with his glass. It can be seen that the two are very familiar with each other. You don’t mind sharing cups. You know that the Nine Princes are very clean, but they are tolerant to Shangguan Yan and let her be unruly in front of her.
Although the anger of the Ninth Prince has disappeared a lot, his face still maintains an angry look. Since the cup was taken by Shangguan Yan, he turned to take the wine jug directly.
“You are not allowed to drink, I feel distressed if I drink too much.” Shangguan Yan grabbed the hip flask and set it farther, and then ordered someone to get the sober soup.
The four guards finally let go of the big stone in their hearts. His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince didn’t even listen to his mother’s concubine. His temper was notoriously hot, and he would kill when he was unhappy.
Shangguan Yan smiled and said, “Next time you want to drink, you have to wait for me. You can’t drink it by yourself. It’s not enough.
“I am in a bad mood.”
“Oh? Tell me, why are you in a bad mood?”
She spoke softly and slowly tempted him to speak. On weekdays, she would listen to him with relish about the secrets of the palace, but today because of Di Jing’s arrival, she couldn’t help but think about this man half-distracted.
What is this Di Jing doing in Beijing? He had a sharp look at her just now, which gave her a bad feeling. Maybe he just thought she was familiar and would not recognize her as the maid Ma’er back then.
He came to the capital, wouldn’t he come to find her to seek revenge?
The Ninth Prince began to talk drunkenly to her, she listened on the surface, but her mind drifted to the past when she and Di Jing met.
