Chapter 372: Doubao
Since there is no difference between the second and the twentieth, the only important thing is the first. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Xia Xiaodong has already figured out that the so-called treasure fighting, I am afraid that Zhou Jianhong's mind may not be on the 'treasure', but in the process of 'boasting', 'stepping on', and 'fighting', watching the woman's performance makes him fall in sight.
However, this time, Xia Xiaodong really wanted to win with treasure.
After everyone put the gifts on the table, Kwawa Bao officially began. The order is naturally according to the seat.
The first one is Xia Danfeng.
Xia Danfeng's gift was not bought now, but specially brought by Shan Changshuiyuan. Obviously, he is quite familiar with the conventions of 'Doubao' and Zhou Jianhong's preferences.
"The concubine presented it is a thousand years ago, in the land of Hetao, excavated in the old kiln of the Chen family, a pink porcelain folded branch flower and fruit pattern hexagonal bottle." Xia Danfeng's sentence, I don't know how many times I practiced it in advance, Rao is voice trembled with nervousness, but he was still very familiar with it, and he came as soon as he opened his mouth.
But the later words didn't go so well. It took almost a cup of tea to introduce the hexagonal bottle with countless characteristics. Looking at the face of the female master of ceremonies next to her, she couldn't wait to pounce and cover Xia Danfeng's mouth!
If everyone is at this rate, it is estimated that the luncheon can be directly changed to a dinner party.
When it was Xia Xiaodong's turn, she just stood up and said, "A dark brocade robe." ”
Then ......, he bowed down. Then...... I sat down.
In everyone's opinion, this person who is in second place, who is in the same place as Beixia and is very popular in the Siyi Pavilion, is standing dignified and generous, with his hands folded on his waist, and he bows very standardly, and it is over.
Is this an introduction gift, or a show of manners?
And, what did she say? A brocade robe? Or is it black?
That's it? This robe doesn't have the slightest mystery of calling the wind and rain and scattering beans into soldiers, or the resume that the Jade Emperor once worn, can also be placed on the table and given as a gift?
The most confused one is none other than Xia Danfeng.
Because the robe in front of Xia Xiaodong was the one she bought with fifty taels of silver, but the original price was only five taels, and she later lost it when she offered a reward.
Although this robe was indeed initially favored by Xia Xiaodong, she seemed to have said that she wanted to bring it to Doubao or something, but when she really saw the black and inconspicuous robe, placed on the table with a cloud head of rosewood, Xia Danfeng still felt unbelievable.
This Xia Xiaodong doesn't really think that Zhou Jianhong is handsome and chic, and he is very good at talking, right? What's more, Xia Xiaodong shouldn't have seen the emperor before .......
Xia Xiaodong said it too briefly, so that the girl in third place didn't react to herself, and the etiquette lady next to her didn't react either, and forgot to remind her.
As a result, there was a brief silence in the huge hall.
"Present-" The eunuch who was standing beside the emperor suddenly said in a long voice, startling everyone.
Of course, the eunuch did not suddenly have a convulsion by himself, and wanted to say such a sentence, but received instructions from the emperor.
A commotion seemed like a breeze blowing through the hall, but no one dared to raise any objection to the shaking of his body and the light sigh of surprise in his mouth.
According to the usual practice, the emperor would not express his special interest in one or more of them until the person offering the congratulatory gift had introduced his gifts one by one. More often than not, the emperor may not even be interested in anything.
But this time the second piece was introduced, and it was still so crude that it was almost a rude introduction, and the emperor actually interrupted the procedure and asked to present it for a look.
Unusual, of course.
But all procedures, whether they are routines, are all for the emperor's service.
Activities like Doubao are purely to show the grace of Huanghuang and stimulate the people around them to compete for favor. It does not involve court politics or party disputes, and of course the emperor does not need to consider anyone's feelings, and can do whatever he wants.
At that moment, one of the palace maids standing behind Xia Xiaodong stepped forward and took away the robe that Xia Xiaodong had placed on the table. When he picked it up, the weight of the robe obviously exceeded the palace maid's expectations, and the movement obviously stalled.
The brocade robe was loaded on the tray, and it took several people's hands to finally arrive in front of Zhou Jianhong.
What the emperor wants to see is not such a long stacked block. The eunuch who accompanied him cleverly shook off the robe and held it in front of him to show the emperor.
Like the palace maid, the eunuch also misestimated the weight of the robe, and showed a slightly surprised expression. After all, this kind of robe worn in spring and autumn, although it will be heavier than the summer robe, will not be heavier there. Unexpectedly, the weight of this robe is really not light.
As soon as the robe was unfurled, those who were close to it could easily spot the peculiarity in it—it was very crisp.
No matter how good the fabric is, it is also a silk fabric, which is always soft, and when you hold the shoulders with both hands like this, you will feel draped at most, but it will definitely not even stand up in the chest and abdomen.
On the neckline of the structured robe, a very incongruous strip of cloth is nailed. The eight characters on the cloth strip are, of course, even more incongruous.
If it is not the first place, please return it.
Zhou Jianhong turned a blind eye to this confident little trick, and just stood in front of the robe with interest, and pressed the position of the robe on the chest with his hand.
A rather eccentric feeling somewhere between soft and hard.
In this way, it should be with self-defense.
But looking at the appearance of the eunuch, it was by no means as heavy as carrying an iron tool, that is, it was lined with something, not an iron plate or other armor material. But the feel is clear and not wood, rattan and leather, so what is it?
Zhou Jianhong hesitated for a moment, and pressed his thoughts of unbuttoning the robe on the spot to see inside—this kind of action didn't seem like an emperor should do in public.
He whispered to the eunuch beside him and sat back on the throne.
The emperor actually rarely spoke loudly, and most of the time he was endorsed by eunuchs.
The eunuch knew everything about everyone present, and immediately turned to Xia Xiaodong and said, "The emperor asked, what is the mystery of this robe, Miss Xia is so good." ”
Xia Xiaodong had no choice but to stand up again: "If you go back to the emperor, there is a mystery in it, and you can't pass on six ears." ”
One person has two ears, two people have four ears, and three people have six ears. You can't pass on the six ears, that is, you can't let a third person know, that is, you can only 'go out of my mouth and into your ears'.
The commotion breeze drifted through the hall again, and the children were a little stunned.
Let you introduce, you stand up and say a word. Well, the emperor has a good temper, so take it to see it yourself. After reading it, let you say it again, you still say one sentence, what else is said is not passed on to the six ears.
I think everyone is redundant, do you want to discuss the 'robe' matter with the emperor's lonely men and widows?
Everyone didn't dare to stare at the emperor, but the hall suddenly became unusually silent, waiting for the emperor's reaction.
Reprimand, reprimand, or gladly accept? Or maybe it's time for the next one.
