Chapter 259 I can’t help myself
The hall on the first floor of Yichun Building was full of guests and bustling with activity.
The waiter couldn't handle it all.
Some people didn't have seats and would rather stand than leave.
At this moment, Zi Yan was playing the piano on the stage, and several sisters were dancing beside her.
There was a lot of people drinking and drinking, and it was very lively.
Shen Yindi's eyes flashed with shock. She had come here to play at night before, but this was the first time it was so popular since their transformation.
Looking at the second floor, there are also shadowy figures.
She glanced at the modern time. It was only eight o'clock in the evening. Has the nightlife started now?
"Adi, there are so many people here. Our private room should not be occupied, right?" Si Qi held Shen Yindi's arm, her eyes shining.
Si Qi likes such occasions the most.
There are so many people and it’s lively.
"No, that's what Auntie Chun prepared for us. Let's go upstairs first."
"You guys go first, I'll listen to what they're saying and see if there's anything interesting." Si Qi wasn't in a hurry at all. She would go to the stage later to watch Zi Yan play the piano.
I didn't expect her to start so early tonight.
Mu Ningyuan hasn't come yet.
Now there are four people: Chu Yan, Shen Yindi, Chu Yun and Chu Yao.
"Okay, then you better be careful."
Shen Yindi, with a veil on her face, walked up quietly from the side.
She also had a light-colored silk scarf wrapped around her head, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed.
Chu Yun and Chu Yao didn't have any special outfits, after all, not many people knew them.
Chu Yan was wearing a mask, but the mask only covered the upper part of his face.
Aunt Chun is very busy.
Liu Mei is now also helping to greet guests and has become Aunt Chun's most capable assistant.
Aunt Chun saw them and immediately came over to greet them.
"Adi, you're here. You haven't been here for a few days, right?" Aunt Chun greeted them warmly and did not neglect them just because they were familiar with each other.
And ever since she revealed her true face at the blessing ceremony, they all knew her true identity.
In fact, there have been speculations before, but they have never been confirmed.
"Yes, I've been busy these days."
"Is the princess's identity exposed now that she is in trouble?" She said this not as a sarcasm but out of her genuine concern.
After all, she knew that her prince was still charged with a crime. Even if they overturned the case and investigated again, they still couldn't find out the truth.
"Auntie Chun, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hide it from you before." Shen Yindi said with a hint of apology in her tone.
"It's okay, we all understand. It's really not easy to reveal it before the prince overturns the verdict. You are doing this to protect him and us." Aunt Chun said earnestly.
She didn't mean to blame Shen Yindi at all.
Shen Yindi smiled and felt very touched. She was right about the person.
"Thank you for your understanding. By the way, why are there so many people here today?" Shen Yindi didn't want to be pretentious, so she changed the subject out of curiosity.
Aunt Chun's attention was instantly diverted.
"I don't know why so many people suddenly came today. And judging from their accents, they are obviously not from the imperial capital. It's even possible that they are not from our Great Chu."
"It's just that they are now all disguised to come in."
Shen Yindi nodded thoughtfully, then she asked, "Then no one is causing trouble, right?"
"No, they are all very polite."
"Auntie Chun, I want to ask you a favor."
"Adi, tell me, as long as I can do it, I will do my best."
"If it weren't for you, I might not be alive today, and our Yichunlou would not be what it is today." Aunt Chun is a person who knows how to be grateful.
"Let's go to the private room and talk."
"There should be some vacancies, right?" Shen Yindi asked with a smile.
"Yes, that room is always reserved for you. Even if the room downstairs is full, it won't be given to anyone else."
“Not open to the public.”
Shen Yindi smiled and nodded. She knew that Aunt Chun would not let her down.
She took them to the private room.
Chu Yun is now very familiar with these.
Chu Yao has also been here twice and feels very good. The people here are very friendly.
"Adi, Miss Yun, Miss Yao, there are many people here today, and the maids have gone downstairs to greet the guests. What do you want to eat? I will personally bring it to you later."
"Where is Mengmeng?" Shen Yindi asked curiously.
"She's getting ready. After Zi Yan comes down, she will go up next." Aunt Chun said truthfully.
Shen Yindi nodded.
"By the way, what do you want me to do?" Aunt Chun continued to ask.
"Just... recently there are some suspicious people from Zhaoyue and Nanyue here, please help me keep an eye on them."
"If they ask about the affairs of the imperial capital, about my prince or other members of the royal family, keep an eye on them."
"Then find someone to tell me."
Aunt Chun nodded: "Okay, these are just small things, just a little effort."
"Then I'd like to thank you first."
"You're welcome, Adi."
"I'll get you some cakes and have someone bring some wine." Aunt Chun said with a smile.
"it is good."
Shen Yindi did not refuse.
They could clearly see what was happening on the first floor from the private room on the second floor, and they could also see the performance on the stage very clearly.
This private room has the best view!
The windows on the other side face the street and you can see the scene at the market.
If you don't want to watch the performance inside, you can also watch the beautiful scenery on the street outside.
Chu Yan did not come up with them just now. He was also asking for news in the lobby on the first floor. There were so many people there and they might hear anything.
"How is Ayao? Have you ever seen so many people?" Shen Yindi looked at Chu Yao and said with a smile.
Chu Yao shook her head. She was a very quiet girl, spoke very little and was as gentle as water.
"It's the first time I've met you, and it's all thanks to the Emperor's sister-in-law."
"Silly girl, stop talking about this. We'll take you out to play in the martial arts world when we have the chance in the future!" Shen Yindi said with a smile.
Chu Yao's eyes lit up, but she quickly regained her composure.
"Okay." She agreed with a smile.
Shen Yindi thought that such a gentle and beautiful girl must have a good husband to spoil her in the future.
But she felt a little depressed when she thought that the Emperor of Chu wanted her to marry a foreign prince.
The most helpless thing is not being able to control oneself. This may be the hardship of being born in the royal family, and not being favored. In the eyes of the emperor, she is just a pawn.
Aunt Chun quickly followed the two maids and brought snacks, cakes, flower wine and fruit wine to them.
About an incense stick of time later, Zi Yan came up with Si Qi, holding her zither.
"Zi Yan is done with her work. How many songs did she play today?" Shen Yindi asked with concern.
"Three. Basically the same as usual." She said gently with a smile.
"Are you going to perform on stage every day recently?" Shen Yindi had already poured himself a cup of tea.
"Yeah. There are a lot of people here recently, so it's normal to go up there two or three times a day." She was a professional pianist anyway. To her, these were nothing.
Shen Yindi nodded and her eyes fell on Si Qi. Her face didn't look very good and she seemed a little depressed.
She immediately asked curiously: "What's wrong with Qi'er? Who made you angry?"
