Chapter 71: A Little Storm Before the Beginning
After Xue Zhi's arrival was handed over to Princess Pingyang to deal with, Xue Lang had a good night's sleep.
At the beginning of the rooster crowing three times, Hexiang came to tell Xue Lang to get up-
The third day of the third lunar month is a big day to hold a promotion ceremony. Her Royal Highness the princess deliberately watched the day, the auspicious day of the zodiac, everything is appropriate!
Before dawn, Lady Liu wore Xue Lang's official uniform-
Xue Lang is tall, and there is no official uniform in the house that is suitable for him to wear, but there is nothing in width and narrowness, and the length is ...... The hem only reaches the knee. When I tried it on that day, it also made Rugui laugh. It is impossible for the official uniform to be made by the needlework room in the house, or Her Royal Highness the princess has left the relationship, so Jingzhong has been expedited and sent to it.
Xue Lang's position as the main thin is from the sixth grade, and with his rank, the corresponding official uniform color is dark green, with a silver belt of nine pins, black official boots, and a Jinxian crown.
Everything else is easy to say, it is clothes, dark green, what a color that makes a man's heart plug! Fortunately, the hat is not dark green, if the hat is also dark green...... Stop, the picture is scary just thinking about it.
I feel like I've found another reason to struggle! Even if you want to change the color of your clothes, you must also be promoted! Wearing dark green clothes really feels unnatural.
When I got dressed, tied my belt, and put on my hat, the problem came out -
Xue Lang's hair is too short to wear the Jinxian crown! If the Jinxian crown is not fixed with a hairpin, there is a danger of falling when you bend down to salute.
Even if it has been nearly a month since he crossed over, Xue Lang's board inch has not grown much longer, let alone wearing a crown, even if he is far away from binding his hair.
I can't wear a crown, and tomorrow is a formal occasion, so I can't wear a hat casually, or Hexiang has a way, so I wrapped a ball of cloth with a needle and thread by candlelight, sewed it on the head, and wrapped him in a hard-footed head. As long as it is not a solemn occasion such as sacrificing heaven and earth, it is enough to wrap a veil.
During this time, Xue Lang wore mostly felt hats when he went out, the kind without a brim, a bit like a melon skin hat, which he threw aside when there were no guests at home, and he was quite comfortable with short hair.
In addition to the cloth that is used as a bun, wrapping the head is actually quite comfortable, which is better than wearing a hat. Xue Lang immediately said: "If it's not necessary in the future, just wear this, this is comfortable." β
"Whoa."
After dressing, eat a bowl of thick noodles with fish balls cooked by Xiuniang, the time is just polished, Changjian is already waiting at the gate of the backyard, waiting for Xue Lang to come out, he immediately trotted to follow, and Wanfu led the carriage and waited at the side door.
Hop on a carriage and head southβ
The selected land was between the princess's mansion and the county seat of Weize, and when Xue Lang arrived, Han Jin had already arrived, surrounded by people, and seemed to be making final preparations.
Han Jin was dressed in a crimson official robe and a Jin Xian crown, dressed formally. I heard that Her Royal Highness the princess is going to wear a big dress, and I have seen Her Royal Highness the princess's dress, men's clothes, skirts and other outfits, but I have never seen a dress and makeup.
The princess is a beauty, in line with the purpose of pleasing to the eye, Xue Lang also wants to see that Her Royal Highness the princess is from a famous family, and her mother Dou is also from a famous family, which can be regarded as a real nobleman.
Xue Lang is actually quite curious about the appearance of real classical beauties in big dresses, and I don't know what the difference is between them and modern models who perform in classical costumes...... There should be a difference! Her Royal Highness the princess's temperament is so unique, wearing a big dress, her aura must be more sufficient, well, the more I think about it, the more I look forward to it.
Xue Lang was secretly looking forward to it, while chatting with Han Jin, occasionally a lower-level official came to greet him, he also smiled politely in return, seeing that the hour was approaching, more and more carriages came from the field, and the officials who received the invitation of Her Royal Highness the princess came one after another.
Han Jin was busy greeting people, and Xue Lang took over the inspection work, and grabbed the subordinate officials to go through the process again, so that there could be no mistakes. As for following Han to socialize and expand his network-
Don't be funny! The long history is Han Jin, not Xue Lang. When the princess was away, it was Han Jin who presided over the affairs of the palace, not Xue Lang. This is Han Jin's occasion, if Xue Lang goes to grab the limelight, it is not called wisdom, it is called pretending to be stupid.
"Youyang, Youyang!"
Han Jin called Xue Lang on the side, and there was a group of officials wearing light crimson official robes and wearing Jinxian crowns standing beside him, and Xue Zhi was among them.
"Whoa."
Xue Lang responded, and simply walked over, his steps were not slow, his expression was unhurried, his steps were calm, he was generous, and he saluted with his fists and greeted: "Han Changshi, you are polite." β
A group of officials returned the salute. Han Jin said: "Everyone heard that the alien plow was improved and invented by Youyang, and they all want to know Youyang, so they called Youyang to come over, come, I will introduce you to you." β
Han Jin began to introduce, most of the people who came were the long histories of the assassins, and the official ranks were the same as Han Jin, and I don't know if it was an appointment, or if the assassins deliberately did this-
In the princess's mansion, the one who can be sent to welcome guests is Han Jin, and if an official who is higher than Han Jin is sent, Han Jin will be suppressed. Behind Han Jin stood Her Royal Highness the Princess, who was no one could compare to the grade. The assassins didn't want to offend the princess, so naturally they wouldn't send someone higher than Han Jin, so as not to cause any misunderstanding.
It's not easy to be an official!
Xue Lang sighed silently.
When Xue Zhi was introduced, Xue Zhi said with a smile: "I have known Youyang, we both have the surname Xue, I can't write two Xue characters in one stroke, and I visited yesterday." β
We are our own people. Xue Lang smiled and arched his hand, not wanting to explain, this kind of thing can't be explained clearly, just like Gui returning the gift to the prince, the truth will naturally be revealed.
After waiting for the introduction, Han Jin didn't say anything, and Xue Lang didn't say anything, Xue Zhi said in a concerned tone: "Today's events are unusual, Youyang wants to come and have important business, it's good to have Han Changshi here, Youyang go and get busy." β
As soon as these words came out, Han Jin's face had an embarrassed look on his face-
Xue Lang was dressed in a dark green official robe, standing in a group of officials in crimson official robes, it was simply a little green in the red bushes, just like a tractor on the highway, so conspicuous as fireflies in the night sky!
Xue Lang, who had low EQ, didn't expect this at all, but he still reacted when he saw Han Jin's face full of embarrassment and the obvious look of the show on the faces of some officials, so he smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Xianhui." The opportunity for all the seniors to gather together is really rare, as the last to learn, let go of this kind of learning opportunity, how can the little brother be willing in his heart. Please also ask the seniors not to dislike Xue Lang, the juniors must listen more and talk less, cherish this opportunity to learn, and the seniors should not feel that Xue Lang is a burden. β
As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces, including Han Jin's face, were smiling, and Xue Lang's gaze was a little kinder. Xue Zhi didn't know if it was true or false, and seemed to have just woken up and said the wrong thing, and looked at Xue Lang apologetically.
Xue Lang smiled on his face and said that he didn't care, and secretly rolled his eyes in his heart, this kind of similar situation, fortunately, I read it in a book that teaches people to behave in the world, although our emotional intelligence is low, but we have read a lot of books, and we will still copy it-
On the benefits of being well-read!
A skirmish disappeared invisibly, just when the hour came, far away, Her Royal Highness the princess's guard of honor came, but after a while, the luxurious chariot, with the support of the female official Liu, Her Royal Highness the princess in a big dress got down from the carriage.
"Meet Her Royal Highness Princess Pingyang!"
The crowd bowed and saluted, but no one dared to raise their heads.
