The Grand Royal Residence had already been cleaned inside and out several times, but the stewards still didn't dare to relax. They kept checking every corner, not even letting go of a bug.
When Ban Han and Ban Heng arrived, the Princess Residence had already been checked three or four times. The siblings found the Princess Royal and praised the servants in the Princess Residence.
"I was wondering why they were so happy every time you came. It turns out that you came just to say good things to him." The Princess Royal wore a headband on her head, making her look kind and blessed. "Huahua, quickly let me see your arm. How is it?"
The Princess Royal lifted her sleeve to take a look. There was only a very light bruise on it. If it wasn't for Ban Han's fair skin, it would be almost impossible to see.
Seeing this, the Princess Royal understood everything. This was definitely her Huahua's doing. She pulled down her sleeve and covered Ban Han's arm. The Princess Royal smiled helplessly and said, "You."
"Who told him to speak so harshly? I've already taught him a lesson several times, but he still doesn't know what's good for him. Then I can only teach him what it means to be unlucky." Ban Han reached out and hugged the Princess Royal. "If he didn't provoke me, I wouldn't have bothered to argue with him."
The Princess Royal had spies in the Palace, so she was very clear about the cause and effect of the matter. Naturally, she also knew why Ban Han did this. She patted Ban Han's head with heartache. "You little girl, you really can't take any losses. I don't know who will be able to stand your temper in the future."
She was the one who taught her child to be mediocre and incompetent. Now that she heard a younger generation ridiculing her child, how could she remain indifferent? It was just that there were some things that the younger generation could do, but she couldn't.
"If no one can stand it, then I won't get married." Ban Han leaned against the Princess Royal. "It's good that I won't get married. “
The Princess Royal stroked the top of her head and did not continue to ask her to marry. She just smiled gently.
The siblings were originally there to deliver tea leaves, banquet lists, and guest list to the Princess Royal Residence. However, after lunch, they left the Grand Royal Residence with bags of various sizes as usual.
"Sis, do you think we're here to deliver something or take something?" Ban Heng thought of the banknotes that his grandmother had just stuffed into his hand and said with a smile, "But grandmother is indeed the most generous."
"Give it to me." Ban Han extended his hand in front of him.
"What, what are you doing?" Ban Heng stared at Ban Han vigilantly and clutched his chest. "Grandmother gave this to me!"
"Either you keep it for yourself and don't even think about taking one tael of silver from me in the future, or you obediently give the banknotes to me and I'll look after them for you." Ban Han slowly said, "I won't force you."
Ban Heng looked at his sister and touched the banknotes on his body. After a long while, he finally stuffed the banknotes into Ban Han's hand. He turned his head and did not look at the banknotes that were about to be confiscated. "Take it, take it."
"That's right." Ban Han smiled and put away the banknotes. "You're so young, why do you have so much banknotes on you? Don't learn bad things."
Ban Heng was very unhappy and did not want to speak.
"Didn't you say last time that you wanted a fan?" Ban Han mounted the horse. "Let's go, sister will accompany you to buy it."
Ban Heng's face immediately lit up with joy. He did not care about the banknotes and immediately mounted the horse and followed Ban Han obediently. On the way, he was very attentive, afraid that Ban Han would change her mind and not buy it for him.
Recently, fans were popular in the circle. The more expensive the fan, the more prestigious it was. Although he had a lot of fans in his hand, who would complain about not having enough to show off?
"I really don't understand what you people are thinking. Playing with fans in the autumn, do you think that you are very elegant or very stupid?" Ban Han slightly disliked the recent trend in the capital. "How come I don't see you people being the top scorer in the imperial exams?"
"Sister, we are a group of rich playboys. Why do we need to be so smart?" Ban Heng said righteously. "The country's important matters are taken care of by the pillars of the country. If we don't drag them down, we will be contributing to the country's great cause."
At this point, Ban Heng said in a low voice, "Aren't you and I the same?"
Ban Han glanced at him, and he immediately stopped talking.
When the brother and sister arrived at the entrance of the shop, they heard a woman and a child crying. Not far away, a big man was beating and scolding the woman. The woman carefully protected her daughter in her arms, and the man's fists all fell on her body.
"What's going on?" Ban Han frowned, and there was a trace of disgust in her eyes.
"Noble Lady, don't be angry. I will go and drive them away." Seeing this, the waiter in the shop was about to bring people to drive the three people away.
"Wait." Ban Han stopped the waiter. "He is a big man bullying a woman and a child. Is no one going to do anything about it?"
"Noble Lady, you don't know. This is a family of three. His wife can't give birth to a son, and her family often goes to Butcher Wang's house to beg for money. How can this woman stand up straight?" The waiter shook his head. "We will drive them away now. We won't let you off."
It was bad enough that she met an inconsiderate man, but her family was also so useless. This woman would be like this for the rest of her life.
Ban Han saw that after the fierce-looking butcher saw the waiter, he immediately bowed and didn't dare to yell anymore. She didn't know what the waiter said to him, but he glanced at Ban Han's direction and didn't dare to continue looking. Instead, he bent down and pulled the woman up from the ground.
The woman didn't dare to resist. Holding her crying daughter, she let her husband drag her away.
After Ban Han bought the fan for Ban Heng, she found that there wasn't much joy on Ban Heng's face. Puzzled, she asked: "What's wrong? Didn't you say that you wanted this fan a few days ago? Why are you unhappy now that you bought it? "
"Sister." Ban Heng looked at Ban Han seriously. "After we go back, I will start practicing martial arts. You must supervise me."
"What's wrong?" Ban Han shoved the box with the fan into Ban Heng's hands, "Alright, you've already gotten it. You don't need to say nice words to coax me."
"I'm serious," Ban Heng tightened her grip on the box, "Go back and practice!"
Ban Han patted her shoulder: "En, en, good. I'll practice when we go back."
"Oh, isn't this my nephew and niece?" The Changqing Of Gojoseon saw the brother and sister standing at the door, "What did you buy?"
"Greetings to wang ye." The brother and sister gave a bow to the Changqing Of Gojoseon. Ban Han saw Rong Xia behind the Changqing Of Gojoseon and winked at her. Rong Xia noticed her small movement and couldn't help revealing a smile.
"We're family, no need to be so polite," The Changqing Of Gojoseon looked at Ban Han, "I heard that you hurt your hand. Is it serious?"
"It's nothing serious," Ban Han smiled innocently, "The taiyi said that it didn't hurt the bone. I just need to apply medicine on time and rest for a few days."
"Then I'm relieved," The Changqing Of Gojoseon looked at the sky, "Let's go. It's still early. Come to my fu. I have something good to show you."
The Evergreen Prince could also be considered as one of the most cultured hedonistic sons of the capital. Because he could compose poems and draw paintings, his reputation sounded better than Ban Heng's. But in reality, he was still just a hedonistic son of the capital who had nothing better to do.
Hearing this, Ban Heng had a suspicious expression: "It wouldn't be some unique work of a famous master, right?"
No matter how rare it was, the two of them didn't want to see it.
"Don't worry, it's not something so boring," The Changqing Of Gojoseon waved his hand, "Let's go, it'll definitely be interesting."
And so, the Ban Family siblings were abducted by the Changqing Of Gojoseon.
The Changqing Of Gojoseon's fu was built on the streets of Dongcheng, less than two streets away from the Marquis of Jingting. However, the two families didn't interact much, so the Ban Family siblings and their uncle, the Changqing Of Gojoseon, weren't very familiar with each other.
After entering the gates of the Evergreen Duke's Manor, Ban Kun discovered that the servant girls of the Evergreen Duke's Manor were all exceptionally beautiful. Especially the servant girls or manservants who were able to serve their masters, their faces seemed to have been carefully selected. It was very difficult to find an ordinary looking one.
They sat down. After Ban Han tasted the dessert, she didn't move again.
Rong Xia noticed her small movements and thought to himself, what a pampered little girl. She must be very particular about her food. Although he thought so, he switched the dessert in front of him with the dessert in front of Ban Han.
Forget it, she's still a little girl.
"Hm?" Ban Han looked at Rong Xia with her eyes wide open.
"Do you want to try it?" Rong Xia looked at her with a smile. His white and long fingers held the teacup. He was so lively and fragrant. He was like a jade.
With such a beauty, if he wasn't an earl, she would definitely keep him in the fu and look at him from time to time. He would definitely be very appetizing.
Ban Han picked up a dessert and tasted it.
"How is it?" Rong Xia asked in a small voice.
"It's okay." Ban Han licked her lips. The dessert was average, but it was a feast for the eyes.
Rong Xia looked at her moist lips, then looked away and lowered his head to drink a mouthful of water.
After a while, a servant came up with a birdcage. Inside it was an ugly myna.
Ban Han looked at the Changqing Of Gojoseon suspiciously. Was this the interesting thing?
"I bought this little thing for two hundred taels of silver. It can not only talk, but also recite poems." The Changqing Of Gojoseon used a piece of bird food to tease the myna, "Come, Duo Fu, say something."
"Greetings to the Prince! Greetings to the Prince! "
"Come, recite a poem."
"Goose, goose, goose, curving its neck and singing to the sky …"
The Changqing Of Gojoseon finished showing off the myna's skills. He looked at the Ban Family siblings proudly, "How is it?!"
"Too ugly!" Ban Han shook her head honestly, "I don't like it."
"It's ugly, but it's smart." The Changqing Of Gojoseon looked at the myna carefully. He also felt that it was a bit ugly, "It's good to keep it for fun."
The Ban Family siblings looked at each other. This was a playboy who still had vulgar interests and did not know how to invent new things.
"Her Majesty has a parrot in the palace. It's prettier than this one and can even sing." Ban Ti's words seemed to have triggered Myna. It suddenly started thrashing around in the cage.
"Long live the Changqing Of Gojoseon!"
"Long live the Changqing Of Gojoseon!"
Suddenly, the expressions of everyone in the room changed. The Changqing Of Gojoseon opened the birdcage and reached out to grab the myna's neck. He twisted his hand and the myna could no longer make a sound.
The myna stopped making a sound. The whole room was dead silent.
"Good move, really good move!" The Changqing Of Gojoseon knocked the birdcage to the ground. His face was as dark as ink.
Today, if he had not been on a whim and played with his niece and nephew, he would not have known that there was something wrong with the myna. In the whole country, the only person who dared to say "long live" was the Emperor. The Emperor's cousin, who only had seniority but no real power, was called "long live". It was simply terrible.
"Niece, I owe you a favor today." The Changqing Of Gojoseon turned his head and said to Ban Han, "I wanted to invite you to dinner, but I'm afraid I can't now."
"Are you going to the palace?" Ban Han looked at the birdcage on the ground and felt that the two hundred taels of silver were not well spent.
"What for?" The Changqing Of Gojoseon looked at Ban Han. He did not understand what she meant.
"His Majesty is your cousin. Isn't he your biggest backer?" Ban Han said confidently, "Of course I'm going to the palace to complain."
