(20) Palace banquets
The surrounding guards heard someone calling for help, and hurried to the terrace where Lan Susu and the others were, and saw Lan Susu and the red-clothed county lord falling into the water together, and several guards also hurriedly jumped into the water to save people. This is Bei Muhuang and Gao Changgong and Helian Qingcheng also rushed to the terrace, seeing Lan Susu falling into the water, both of them had a big change in complexion, and they were about to jump into the water to save people, but they saw Lan Susu surfacing with his backhand around the red-clothed county lord, the red-clothed county lord seemed to be frightened, and his hands and feet kept fluttering, although Lan Susu hugged her, but because she was smaller than the red-clothed county lord, she also had a lot of difficulty, but fortunately, the guards who jumped into the water hurriedly took the red-clothed county lord over, and let go of the red-clothed county lord Lan Susu was much easier, and soon went ashore.
Susu, what's wrong? There is no injury. Seeing Lan Susu swimming ashore, Gao Changgong hurriedly grabbed Lan Susu up and down and looked it up and down to make sure that there was no problem, and quickly took his fox fur cloak from Mu Fei behind him and wrapped Lan Susu tightly, so that the cold weather fell into the ice lake, don't get the wind cold. knew that it was not safe to leave her alone, and that he should still take her to see Emperor Beimu with him, Gao Changgong was secretly annoyed.
How about Susu, are you frozen, let's go change your clothes first. Seeing that Gao Changgong had already put on a fox fur for Lan Susu, Helian Qingcheng's hand holding his cloak tightened, and he was even more distressed when he saw that Lan Susu had frozen so that his lips were blue, and he immediately asked the maid in the palace to arrange for Lan Susu to change his clothes.
The folk girl Lan Susu has seen Emperor Beimu. Lan Susu gave a court gift to Emperor Mu of the North for a day and a moon. Although he jumped into the lake this time, he didn't freeze so badly, because he had been secretly operating his internal force to resist the cold, and he was not a fool. At this time, Emperor Beimu naturally couldn't lose his etiquette again, even though Gao Changgong and Helian Qingcheng protected themselves, but after all, Emperor Beimu was the master of this Beimu, and he couldn't leave a bad impression on him just when they met, which was very bad for him, and besides, the red-clothed county lord was his relative!!
Uncle Huang, you have to call the shots for Qingzhu, the maid of the Seven Princes has an arrogant temper, Qingzhu just said a few words to her, and she ruthlessly pushed Qingzhu into the ice lake. Before Beimu Huang could speak, the red-clothed county lord preemptively spoke, he was going to teach this little girl a lesson, but he didn't expect to fall into the lake inexplicably, although he didn't understand what was going on, but it must be related to this little girl, not to mention that the two fell into the water at the same time, why did this little girl get the care of her cousin and the handsome and dashing seventh prince, and rushed to send the fox fur, but she could only shiver in this cold wind, and she was only wearing a blanket sent by the palace maid!!
What the hell is going on? Blue girl, you say. Emperor Beimu did not favor the lord of Qingzhu, but let Lan Susu say first, looking at the generous girl in front of him, seeing that he was not panicked but didn't care about his wolf bèi first wanted to salute himself, Beimu Huang also had a trace of appreciation in his heart, it seems that Allure's vision is good, he has been praising this girl when he came back, and now it seems that it is not completely without merit, and then look at his niece, she has really been spoiled since she was a child, and she doesn't need to figure out the identity of others to talk to herself, In front of outsiders, he doesn't salute himself but makes a lot of noise, what kind of style is it, how to marry someone in the future with such a character, he should really teach her a lesson.
The folk girl returned to the emperor, just the folk girl and the county lord and others were enjoying the scenery and chatting by the lake, I don't know what happened The county lord fell into the lake, the folk girl grew up by the river since she was a child and knew some water, so she jumped into the lake and scooped up the monarch, but I don't know why the county lord must say that it was the folk girl who pushed her into the lake. Lan Susu replied very calmly, neither taking the opportunity to sue nor bringing the jealousy between the youngest daughters to the table, saving the face of the mother.
In this case, Lan Susu has a merit in saving the county lord of Qingzhu, and he appreciates the pearls of the East China Sea, and someone comes to arrange for the county lord and Miss Lan Susu to change clothes, and the weather will be cold. Emperor Beimu had love in his tone, and looked at Lan Susu with satisfaction, he was a good candidate, and he knew the general situation.
Uncle Huang, it's not like this at all, it's this crazy girl who pushed me into the lake. The county lord of Qingzhu is still insisting that Emperor Beimu punish this little maid, why should she be rewarded, things shouldn't be like this, why is everything dependent on his own imperial uncle will favor the lowly maid this time, and actually reward her, no, I don't allow such a thing to happen, absolutely not, the county lord of Qingzhu was so angry that he didn't have the cuteness and cuteness just now.
Seeing that the county lord of Qingzhu insulted himself like this, Lan Susu still looked calm and indifferent, and did not argue with him, this indifference made Emperor Beimu even more impressed with him, looking at his niece is really rotten wood that cannot be carved.
Qingzhu, don't talk nonsense, Su Su is not the maid of the Seventh Prince, she is the guest of her father. Seeing that the lord of Qingzhu was messing around,
Helian Qingcheng was also a little annoyed, and his tone of voice was three points heavier!
What do you say, he is a guest of the imperial uncle? How is it possible, he has obviously been following behind the Seventh Prince, and he is the maid of the Seventh Prince. The county lord of Qingzhu still looked at Lan Susu in disbelief, how could a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl be a guest of the imperial uncle!
Miss Lan Susu is not my maid, and I never bring maids by my side, Miss Lan and I are childhood sweethearts who grew up together, and she is also my guest of honor in the Seven Kings Mansion. Seeing that the county lord of Qingzhu kept saying that Lan Susu was a lowly maid, Gao Changgong was very unhappy, but after all, this is Beimu, not Tianyue, so he can only endure it, such a woman is really empty and beautiful.
That's right, Lan Susu is my guest. Seeing that the county lord of Qingzhu has been unrelenting, Bei Muhuang's heart is even more unhappy, this little woman only knows that she is jealous, she will only emphasize her noble identity, and she will not harm herself if she harms others, and everyone has already made a fist for him, and she doesn't know the severity!
Su Su came to our Beimu this time because we want to do business with her, she is the head of the Linghai Tingtao who will trade with us in the future and bring us silk, tea, and porcelain, Qingzhu, do you still think that the head of the Lan family is a guest of the Seventh Prince? They are friends from the same day, and it is too rude for you to do so. Helian Qingcheng's tone was full of disappointment, his cousin has always been the pearl of the emperor's uncle's palm, and he has always been rampant and domineering in Beimu, he originally expected that she could marry Gao Changgong this time to stabilize the diplomatic relations between the two countries, but she didn't expect that she would first offend Lan Susu, which Gao Changgong valued the most, and it seemed that there was not much hope.
Why don't you go and change your clothes quickly, are you going to snub Beimu's VIPs? Don't apologize to Miss Lan yet. Emperor Beimu's face sank, although Lan Susu was young, he was a decisive and very courageous person, and it was not a loss to cooperate with such a person, and Emperor Beimu naturally had a shot in his heart to distinguish which was more important or clear.
Yes, I'll go now, and I ask Miss Lan for forgiving me for the offense just now. Qingzhu County Lord Juan Beimu Huang was angry and didn't dare to say more, and this banquet was held to receive the envoy Seven Princes and the head of the family who listened to the sea and listened to the waves, and now he knows that Lan Susu is the head of the family who listens to the sea and listens to the waves, and he doesn't dare to offend him, although the lord of Qingzhu County is arrogant, he also knows how much the trade matter has affected Beimu, if his behavior affects this cooperation, I am afraid that I will not have good fruits to eat in the future, although I grit my teeth with hatred in my heart, but I still give it to it for the time being, and I will definitely get this account back, Cylin, you wait!
It doesn't matter, Su Su is just a folk girl, if you want to say offensive, it is also Su Su who offends the lord of Qingzhu, and please ask the lord of Qingzhu to have a large number of Su Su who will no longer be embarrassed from now on. Lan Susu replied not softly or hard, yes, everyone knows that I offended you, and I apologize if you are still embarrassed, I will be you Beimu has no face!
With a wave of Beimuhuang's hand, there were maids in the palace to take Lan Susu and the county lord of Qingzhu to change clothes, but fortunately, Tingqin thought carefully and prepared a few sets of clothes for himself early that could be replaced, and he also brought a set into the palace, but he didn't expect to really use it. The maid took Lan Susu to a room where the guests should be rested at the usual banquet, and she had to dress Lan Susu widely.
I don't need you to serve me, I can wear it myself. Lan Susu stopped the maid, although he has been in this world for twelve years, Lan Susu is still used to doing it himself. She quickly took off her soaked clothes, and then put on spare clothes, the spare clothes were still blue tops, inlaid with red piping, embroidered with white plums, still white pleated long skirts, the long skirt was painted with red plums, quite the charm of snowflakes and red plums, and then white embroidered shoes, embroidered shoes embroidered with red peonies, red threads and gold threads staggered and shining.
Miss, your clothes are so delicate and beautiful. The maid looked at Lan Susu's clothes, and her eyes were even more fond of it, and then looked at the wet clothes that had been changed, the green bamboo on the white dress was still fresh and did not fall off because of the wet water, this ink was actually waterproof! I have been in the Beimu Palace for many years, but I have never seen such a special dress.
This is produced by my family's ready-to-wear store, and in the future, we will listen to the sea and listen to the waves and make you Bei Mu and you, and you will soon wear such dresses. Lan Susu smiled.
Are you sure? It's just wonderful. The maid's eyes were full of joy.
Well, it's true, I'll ask my sister to help me dry this wet clothes, especially this fox fur, it's not my thing, please be careful.
The slave maid knew that it seemed that the boy was really interested in the young lady, and such an expensive fox fur was wet like this without frowning. The maid said enviously that if someone did this to herself, she would really die without regrets!
We are friends who have known each other since childhood, and we came to Beimu together, so we naturally want to support each other. Lan Susu looked indifferent, and no longer paid attention to the maid who was still imaginary, and returned to the banquet by the way he came.
When Emperor Beimu saw Lan Susu coming back, he ordered the palace banquet to begin, and the ministers all sat on the right side in the order of official positions, and the princes and princes sat on the left, and the noble ladies and sons who were invited to participate in the performance sat with their families, Gao Changgong was arranged in the first seat on the left side of Emperor Beimu, and Lan Susu was the second. It's just that they are curious about who this young girl is, how can she sit in front of the prince of Beimu, is she also a member of the royal family of Tianyue??
Seeing that all the people had arrived, Emperor Beimu stood up and gently tapped the glass cup in his hand with the chopsticks in his hand, and everyone stopped whispering, and their eyes turned to Emperor Beimu.
Zhongqing, today is a big day for us in Beimu. Bei Muhuang's voice was calm and his tone was joyful. Today, we Beimu ushered in the seven princes of the Fengchen country of the Tianyue continent on the other side of the sea, and the seven princes came to my Beimu in the hope of concluding a friendly neighbor with us, repairing forever, communicating with each other, and common prosperity, and reached an agreement with the merchants of Tianyue to trade with each other to enhance the economic prosperity of the two countries. Now I would like to introduce to you that the handsome young man on my left is the Seventh Prince of Fengchen Kingdom, and the young lady next to him is the Tianyue Merchant who will provide silk, tea and porcelain to Beimu in the future, and Miss Lan Susu, the head of the Linghai Tingtao Merchant Company.
Emperor Beimu's words were amazing, everyone already knew the purpose of today's banquet was indeed unexpected, the young girl was the one who cooperated with the imperial merchants of her own country, could this woman really take on this big responsibility at such a young age, for a while doubtful, scrutinized, disdainful, all kinds of eyes were cast at Lan Susu, Bei Mu Huang was also observing Lan Susu, what kind of reaction would this woman make in such a situation? ?
Seeing that Lan Susu still looked calm and did not have any special feelings exposed, under the complicated eyes of everyone, she slowly stood up and walked to the open space in the middle of the banquet, stood in the center of the open space, and made a palace salute to the high Beimu Emperor with a smile on her face, her posture was elegant and noble, and she was not as frivolous as an ordinary merchant woman.
Respected Emperor Beimu, as well as all the nobles seated, Su Su knows that he is still young, and you will feel that Su Su is difficult to take on this big task, but Su Su has a thing to be dedicated to the Beimu Emperor, this thing is drawn by Su Su himself, Su Su wants to use this thing to prove that I listen to the sea and listen to the Tao has this is the benefit of Beimu's imperial business cooperation, Su Su dares to say that this thing has no ancients, and the Beimu Emperor is the first person to get this object. Lan Susu's tone was soft and calm, and his voice was as crisp and pleasant as a pearl falling on a jade plate.
You have such a big mouth, you dare to say that there is no one before, if you are telling a lie, then this king will want your head. The person who spoke was the younger brother of Emperor Beimu and the father of the county lord of Qingzhu, King Rong, who said that Lan Susu pushed her into the ice lake, and King Rong was determined to rectify Lan Susu to vent his anger for his beloved daughter.
This prince, what Su Su said is not a big word, as long as everyone here has seen what Su Su has in his hand, everyone will have a decision in their hearts. Lan Susu heard that someone wanted to kill him, but his face still didn't change, and if he wanted to kill himself, it also depended on whether this person had that quick knife!!
The yellow-mouthed child is so rampant, you can take out the things. I haven't seen any good things from the royal family, this little girl doll dares to boast about this Haikou, and she will definitely call him back.
Ruofeng, bring the things up. Lan Susu gestured to Lan Ruofeng who was standing at his table, and got Lan Susu's instructions, Lan Ruofeng walked towards Lan Susu with a brocade box in his hand, only to see that the brocade box was not played, three feet long, it seemed to be filled with a picture scroll, looking at the brocade box King Rong was even more sneering, he was obsessed with calligraphy and painting all year round, and he was very familiar with the things in this brocade box, but it was just a painting, and it was not a famous artist's pen that he dared to boast that there were no ancients before, it was really ridiculous.
I saw Lan Susu and the young man holding the brocade box opened the brocade box and took out a picture scroll, the picture scroll is different from the ordinary calligraphy and painting is painted on paper, this painting is painted on white silk, and there are no bright colors, there is only black throughout, some zigzag lines, and there are some dots or irregular shapes in the middle, looking at this painting, Beimu Huang's eyes lit up, and King Rong was also speechless in surprise, no wonder she dared to say that there were no ancients, this turned out to be a map of the sky and the moon to the Beimu sea! A complete map of the sea, looking at this map, the people present who want to oppose cooperation with Lan Susu are almost speechless, because even the Beimu people who go to sea all the year round dare not say that they can draw such a complete and accurate map of the sea, but this girl said that this painting was painted by her!!
