697. Chapter 697

Ye Zhen didn't know about Mustard Seed Garden. She brought Mo Rongyi out today because she hadn't seen him for a long time. There were some things that were inconvenient to say in the palace. It was more convenient to say them outside. This little prince looked like he had grown up. The heart is still not small.

The Mustard Seed Garden is not in the downtown area of ​​Kyoto, but in a large house on the outskirts. There is a huge garden inside, with a large stage set up in the center. The opera "Farewell My Concubine" is currently being sung on the stage.

Ye Zhen has never been very interested in listening to operas, but it is said that the script of Farewell My Concubine was written by Qi Yanling herself to relieve her boredom, and later it was unknown to the people.

"Yaoyao, let's go to the front." Mo Rongyi took Ye Zhen's hand and walked to the front, "Did you see that Yu Ji on the stage is Boss Mei."

"I can't tell you still like to listen to operas. I almost thought you were a playboy." Ye Zhen said angrily.

Merongyi said angrily, "Why are you a dandy after listening to a play? Do you think everyone in this garden is a dandy?"

Ye Zhen curled her lips, "When did you fall in love with opera?"

"Everyone likes to go to the Mustard Seed Garden recently, and I'm just here to join in the fun." Mo Rongyi said with a smile. He didn't quite understand what the opera was about, but he just loved the fun.

"What's the background of this Boss Mei?" Ye Zhen glanced at Yu Ji on the stage and didn't think he was very powerful.

Merongyi smiled and said, "The opera is good, and I heard that she is also good-looking, more beautiful than women."

Ye Zhen knew that all the actresses in the troupe were men. Even if they looked like women after putting on makeup, did they really look like women?

"Have you seen it?" Ye Zhen asked.

Merongyi shook his head, "No."

Ye Zhen resisted the urge to roll her eyes and found a seat with him to sit down. Soon, a young man dressed as a servant brought pastries, mixed fruits and hot tea, and Mo Rongyi placed a piece of silver on the table.

"It seems like the boss of Mustard Seed Garden really knows how to make money." Just watching a show costs a silver coin. How much do you earn in a day?

"You must not tell Brother Huang that we are here to see a show." Merongyi said.

As they were talking, the opera on the stage was coming to an end, but there was some commotion at the front.

"It's so noisy." Mo Rongyi said angrily.

Ye Zhen frowned slightly and looked at the place in front of her. She seemed to see a familiar figure.

"Who is the man in front who wants to see Boss Mei?" Ye Zhen asked, pointing to a man in brocade clothes in front of him.

Merongyi took a look and said, "Oh, that person, Liang Chun, haven't you seen him?"

"I've seen it." Ye Zhen nodded thoughtfully. Wasn't it Lu Fang'er who insisted on marrying Mr. Liang? "What is he doing?"

"I heard that Liang Chun went to the Mustard Seed Garden that day, probably because he was quarreling with others about Boss Mei." Merongyi stood up, "Isn't that my uncle's uncle?"

Ye Zhen looked at the man who was quarreling with Liang Chun. He looked like he was in his fifties and was having a red-faced argument with Liang Chun. As expected, he was the famous theater fan prince in Kyoto.

"Why did Prince Ji have a quarrel with Liang Chun?" Ye Zhen asked doubtfully.

"Go over and take a look." Mo Rongyi shouted, already walking towards the place where the quarrel was.

Liang Chun looked like he was drunk, pointing at King Ji and yelling, "Why do you let an old guy like you occupy Boss Mei? I tell you, today I am going to take Boss Mei out of the Mustard Seed Garden. What are you going to do?" ?”

King Ji was so angry that his beard almost stood up, "You...who doesn't know what kind of character you are? If I ask you to take Boss Mei away, what will happen? Liang Chun, as long as I am here, you can't even think about Mei." The boss takes it back."

"You old thing, how good do you think you are!" Liang Chun shouted, reaching out to hit King Ji.

"I'm better than you after all. Huh, I even beat my own wife for a prostitute. Do you think no one in Kyoto knows?" Prince Ji shouted.

Liang Chun was so angry that he punched King Ji. Originally, he couldn't hit King Ji, but someone pushed King Ji from behind. Liang Chun just punched King Ji in the face.

"Liang Chun, you actually dare to hit the prince!" Mo Rongyi widened his eyes, pointed at Liang Chun and shouted.

Ye Zhen stood still and did not move. Some of the people under the stage dispersed to avoid trouble, and some stood on the side to watch the excitement. Her position was not close or far away, so she could see everything.

She looked thoughtfully at Boss Mei, who was standing behind King Ji. If she saw it correctly, it must have been him who pushed King Ji just now.

To others, he seemed to be telling King Ji to avoid him carefully, but from her point of view, she saw him pushing out.

really interesting.

Seeing that Liang Chun had been beaten by Merong Yi and couldn't stand up, Ye Zhen said to Xue Lin behind him, "Go and call the young prince back."

Ye Zhen turned around and left the mustard seed garden, waiting outside for Xue Lin to drag Mo Rongyi out, "Go back to the palace quickly, I have other things to do."

"Isn't it?" Mo Rongyi shouted, "We just came out and we haven't had enough fun yet."

"I'll see you next time." Ye Zhen said with a smile, "I'm warning you, don't go out to play again. When your brother blames you, I won't plead with you."

Merongyi followed the palace people back to the palace with a depressed look.

"Xue Lin, go find out who this boss Mei is and why Liang Chun beat his wife." Ye Zhen whispered to Xue Lin. She didn't want to pay much attention to Lu Fang'er's matter, but she thought She decided to inquire about the relationship between Mrs. Lu and Lu Shiming.

Back home, Ye Zhen went to say hello to Mrs. Pei.

"Is there nothing going on in the palace today?" Ms. Pei asked Ye Zhen to sit next to her and asked in a low voice.

Ye Zhen smiled and said, "It's okay, the Queen Mother just asked me a few words."

Mrs. Pei touched her head and said, "Well, the Queen Mother used to treat you as a princess, but now that you are going to be the Queen, you should be more respectful and cautious towards the Queen Mother than before."

"Mom, I know." Ye Zhen said with a smile, "Yes, I heard something today. Did Liang Chun beat Lu Fang'er?"

"Fang'er was beaten?" Pei looked at Ye Zhen in surprise, "Where did you hear about it?"

Ye Zhen was a little surprised, how could Mr. Pei not know about this? Didn't King Ji say that everyone knew about it? Could it be that Lu Fang'er deliberately hid it from the Lu family? "I just saw Liang Chun quarreling with others and talking about it."

Mrs. Pei frowned and said, "Does Liang Chun think that the Lu family has no power, so he can beat and scold Fang'er at will?"

Although she and the other two families had already had a bad fight, when she heard that her niece was beaten, Mrs. Pei felt that if the Lu family didn't come forward, no one would know that Lu Fang'er was bullied to death in the Liang family. Counting on Mrs. Liu and the second wife , don’t even think about it.

Ye Zhen said, "Mom, I asked someone to inquire. We will soon know what is going on."
