Chapter 150: Farewell
After harvesting the potatoes, it was time to prepare for the donation of grain to Beijing.
The candidates for entering Beijing have already been indicated by Her Royal Highness the Princess. Jiang Lin is going, and Her Royal Highness the princess will also allocate ten people for him, and let him lead a team to be responsible for Xue Lang's safety.
The servants brought Changjian, Hexiang, and Xiuniang. If you want to cook with potatoes for His Majesty Li Yuan, Xiuniang is going to go, and she can't go to Xue Lang in person, it's too inappropriate. Her Royal Highness the princess has sent a warrant to the people in the princess's mansion in her capital, Xue Lang can go to the palace in Beijing to get it, and there are people in the palace to help him.
Hearing that she was going to Beijing to cook for the sage, Xiuniang was very nervous: "Big ...... Da Lang, the craftsmanship of the slave and maid, can you still cook for the saint? True...... Do you really want to go? ”
The tone of his speech was trembling. Xue Lang smiled: "Don't worry, you are only responsible for cooking, I think you shouldn't be able to see the saint, at most you will meet the female official of the Shangshi Bureau, rest assured, that female official is not as good as your family's eldest man, I am very high-quality, and someone will teach you etiquette at that time, you only need to be responsible for cooking, do more and talk less, be cautious in your words and deeds, understand?" ”
"Whoa!"
Hearing that the grade was not as high as Xue Lang, Xiu Niang's heart was a little relieved, but she was still full of worry. Xue Lang said again: "We entered Beijing to offer auspiciousness, and the dishes you made have never been before, rest assured, no one dares to touch the mold at this time." ”
Xiuniang thought about it, so she settled down, but she was still a little nervous. This is a normal emotional reaction, if her face is full of excitement, Xue Lang may not dare to take her into Beijing. The latest and fastest update for the faint of heart is easy to keep to their duty.
He Xiang was well-trained, and as soon as he heard that he was going to enter Beijing with Xue Lang, he immediately began to prepare for his belonging. Xue Lang's hair has just grown into shawl hair, and it is impossible to tie his hair, Ma Yuanliang's wife sent a lot of raw silk dyed black, and Hexiang braided these raw silk with Xue Lang's hair, and made him a strong wig bun, so that he no longer has to worry about wearing a hat like a virtuous crown that will fall off, at most, it is more troublesome when washing his hair.
Naturally, it was not Xue Lang's turn to prepare for the trip, he was in charge of enjoying it, and naturally a servant would prepare it for him when he ordered him to go down. He was busy learning etiquette rules from Rugui, and by the way, he knew the people and things in Beijing.
Xue Lang has a good memory, he remembers these things once he says them, and he remembers all the confirmation of history, and remembers it more deeply and in detail.
After being busy for almost five days, Jingzhong sent someone to send an urgent sage edict, ordering Xue Lang to set off as soon as possible and enter Beijing to offer auspiciousness.
On the first day of departure, Princess Pingyang summoned Xue Lang and asked him, "Can Youyang be ready for travel?" ”
Xue Lang said: "Back to His Royal Highness, it was basically prepared by Hexiang, and I myself packed up some things that might be used on the road, all of which were in place, and I was waiting for the road." ”
Princess Pingyang nodded, glanced at Chu Xue, Chu Xue immediately turned back to the room, and after a while, she took out a wooden box, but when she opened it, it was a box of brand new clothes, from head to toe, clothes, shoes and socks.
Princess Pingyang said: "This is the clothes made by the sewing room, the clothes on the first and second floors of the box are the regular clothes you wear on the road, and the bottom layer is the official robe you wear when you meet the saint." ”
Xue Lang said gratefully: "Thank you, Your Highness." ”
Princess Pingyang waved her hand and said, "Youyang is going, will you still come to Weize Pass?" ”
Xue Lang said seriously: "This is nature. I am an advisor in His Highness's house, and where His Highness is, his subordinates are there. ”
Princess Pingyang shook her head and stopped talking. Xue Lang said: "Your Highness can rest assured." ”
Princess Pingyang said: "I know that Youyang is a person, and I am relieved about this matter. It's just that if the saint insists on keeping you, don't excuse yourself too much, so as not to collide with the saint and attract blame. ”
"Well, my subordinates can save it."
Princess Pingyang nodded, took out two tea bowls, turned out the usual tea leaves, and said: "After Youyang went to Beijing, there was no one to drink tea with me, so let's drink tea with me again today." ”
"Whoa."
Xue Lang took the initiative to go to the small stove to take down the hot water and start making tea, one bowl per person, sitting opposite each other. In the smoke, Xue Lang felt more and more that he couldn't understand Princess Pingyang's expression, and he seemed to be calm, but he didn't seem to be calm.
Xue Lang asked, "Your Highness, can I come back to Weize Pass in a month?" ”
Princess Pingyang said: "It shouldn't be, the stakes are very important to offer auspiciousness, the saint should stay in Youyang for a while longer, and Youyang can stay in Chang'an with peace of mind." ”
Xue Lang said: "I can't rest assured!" Sweet potatoes and potatoes are harvested, cabbage, peanuts, pumpkins, and cotton are waiting to be harvested, and there are farm matters, and the subordinates are not at ease. ”
Princess Pingyang's calm face showed a faint smile, and said, "Haven't you already explained these things?" ”
Xue Lang sighed: "It's not that I'm watching from the side, I'm not at ease after all." ”
Princess Pingyang glanced at Xue Lang, nodded, and said, "Don't worry, Youyang, I will let people act strictly according to your explanation." ”
Xue Lang had an expression of "I can rest assured that His Highness is doing things", so he didn't say anything more, which provoked Princess Pingyang to chuckle and said: "Youyang acts steadily, but he is broad-minded, and he doesn't seem to have mundane things lingering in his heart. ”
Xue Lang said: "This highness can misunderstand his subordinates, it's not that his subordinates are chic, it's just that the whip is out of reach, it's useless for me to be anxious, what should be explained has been explained, and I have done what I can control, and the rest of the parts that I can't control, it's useless to mind." ”
Princess Pingyang nodded with a smile: "This kind of mentality is quite good, I should learn from Youyang." ”
Xue Lang smiled and arched his hand: "Your Highness is polite." ”
Princess Pingyang said: "It's not polite, but feeling." If I had the mentality of Youyang, maybe ...... That's it, let's not mention the past, and the journey of Youyang is precious. ”
Xue Lang hurriedly said: "Your Highness Xie, Your Highness should also take care of yourself, and I will make you something to eat when my subordinates come back." ”
Princess Pingyang smiled and nodded. Xue Lang suddenly remembered something and reminded: "Your Highness, the pumpkin is already ready to eat, and the cabbage can also be chopped into a large part, why don't you chop a cart and send it to the saint in Beijing to show your daughter's filial piety, okay?" ”
Princess Pingyang glanced at Xue Lang strangely, and said with a sigh: "Xue Lang, your emotional intelligence is really pitiful, can't you grow anymore?" ”
it!
I advise you to show filial piety, but you are attacked for your emotional intelligence defects! Xue Lang felt that he understood a little bit what it was like to be a day. looked at Her Royal Highness the princess speechlessly: "Why did Your Highness personally attack his subordinates?" ”
"Personal attack?!"
Princess Pingyang understood the meaning of this sentence after thinking about it for a while, laughed, and said: "This palace is just a matter of facts, and I hope that Youyang will make more progress." This is to persuade Youyang to move forward, how can it be regarded as an attack? ”
Now Xue Lang is really speechless! The heart said, Your Highness, you are so black-bellied, does your father Li Yuan know?
After drinking a bowl of tea at Her Royal Highness the Princess, and being hit by her, Xue Lang was kicked out by Her Royal Highness the Princess, saying that he would leave for the road tomorrow and let him have a good rest.
Although Her Royal Highness the princess attacked Xue Lang's emotional intelligence, she still listened to Xue Lang's advice, so that people cut a cart of pumpkins and a cart of cabbage before dawn-
Of course, it's a small car, not a four-wheeled car. Let Xue Lang escort him into Beijing together.
