Chapter 212 Clock
Chu Xinyun reacted back, touched his nose uncomfortably, and got a little carried away for a while.
On that day, under Chu Xinyun's trembling, he finally did all the etiquette right. At this time, Mama Yu also made a farewell. She was originally a grandmother who went home to care for the elderly when she was old, but she was invited by Prince Li to teach Chu Xinyun etiquette.
Now that Chu Xinyun has completed her studies, she naturally won't need her, and she should go home.
Although Mama Yu has always been strict with Chu Xinyun, Chu Xinyun also knows that Mama Yu is doing this for her good. In the palace, there are many rules, and as Yan Qinchang's only wife, her background is already a big difference from those young ladies, if she makes a fool of herself in etiquette, it will only be Yan Qinchang who will be disgraced.
Now that Mama Yu is saying goodbye, Chu Xinyun is reluctant, so that until the evening, she is also worried.
Yan Qinchang came back and saw her like this, so he asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Chu Xinyun said listlessly: "I've finished learning etiquette." ”
"Isn't that a good thing? Why are you still so unhappy? ”
"Mama Yu is leaving."
Yan Qin was relieved, "So you are reluctant to Mama?" ”
"Yes, although she is very fierce and strict, but I also know that she is for my good, and now that she suddenly says that she wants to leave, I am a little reluctant."
"This is actually not difficult to do, wouldn't it be good to leave Mama Yu in the palace?" Yan Qinchang said to her.
"But isn't Mama going home? Does she have any relatives at home? Chu Xinyun asked.
Yan Qinchang touched his chin, "I don't know about this, I'll let Hanchen investigate tomorrow." ”
Chu Xinyun agreed, covered the quilt, closed his eyes and prepared to sleep.
Now that the weather is slowly getting hotter, Chu Xinyun only sleeps in a small undershirt at night, which is loose. Yan Qinchang looked at her fragrant shoulders exposed, his eyes suddenly darkened, and he leaned down and licked it lightly at the base of her ear.
Chu Xinyun sensitively dodged back, pushed Yan Qinchang's head away, and said, "Don't make trouble." ”
"Girl, Yue'er, the good princess of this king, you see that I have endured it for so long, don't you pity me?"
She blushed and snorted Yan Qinchang, "Big pervert." ”
"Whew~ Come on, little beauty, don't struggle." Yan Qinchang pounced on it with a wicked smile, lowered his head, and kissed Chu Xinyun's lips.
Warm yellow candlelight, with beautiful colors.
The flame of the red candle jumped and jumped, as if to encourage them.
.......
Three days later, it will be the state banquet.
Chiyun also returned with the news he had discovered.
In Yan Qinchang's study.
"Lord Wang, my subordinates are incompetent, I can only find out that it is a square thing, and it will ring, as for what it is, I really don't know if my subordinates are lonely and unheard."
"Probably draw this." Yan Qinchang asked.
"This is natural, that thing is not difficult to draw, you wait a minute, my subordinates will draw it for you." Chiyun took the pen and paper, and drew on it.
It didn't take long for a painting to take shape.
Li Qinchang looked at the square thing on the painting, and his expression became solemn.
This thing did look a little new, and he hadn't seen it before. It seems that the words released by Daqi this time are not untargeted.
For a while, the atmosphere became more and more heavy.
At this time, there was a knock on the door of the study, and Chu Xinyun's voice came in from outside.
"Qin Chang, I made you chicken soup, do you want to drink a little?"
Chiyun opened the door and let Chu Xinyun in.
Chu Xinyun took the chicken soup and put it on the desk in front of Yan Qinchang, and just happened to see the painting spread aside. She stared at the painting and felt like she had seen it somewhere.
Yan Qinchang naturally noticed Chu Xinyun's gaze, and seeing her frowning and thinking, he couldn't help but ask, "Yue'er, do you know this thing?" ”
"Yes!" Chu Xinyun nodded, "It's a little familiar, but I can't remember which book I've seen it in again." ”
Yan Qinchang knew that Chu Xinyun usually liked to read some medical books, travelogues, and miscellaneous notes. Maybe she really knew it, and suddenly she was overjoyed, "Yue'er, think about it, where did you see it." ”
Chu Xinyun thought about it carefully, but she still didn't remember it after all, she shook her head apologetically, "I'm sorry, I really can't remember." ”
"If you can't think of it, forget it." Although Yan Qinchang was a little disappointed in his heart, he didn't want to embarrass Chu Xinyun too much.
Chu Xinyun also thought that he could help Yan Qinchang, and after leaving the study, he went straight to the room and began to rummage through the luggage he had brought over.
Yan Xi saw Chu Xinyun rummaging through the luggage and asked, "Princess, what are you looking for?" ”
"Yan Xi, what about the books I brought here?" Chu Xinyun's hand kept moving, and he asked without raising his head.
"Those were all packed in a special box by the prince and placed in another empty room."
"Then take me there." Chu Xinyun stood up, pulled Yan Xi and walked out.
"Princess, slow down."
Yan Xi was pulled by Chu Xinyun, she walked briskly in front, and after walking for a long time, she realized that she didn't know which empty room it was placed in.
So she stopped again and smiled awkwardly at Yan Xi, "Hehe, I don't know where the room is." ”
Yan Xi resisted the urge to roll her eyes desperately, and walked towards the empty room she said with Chu Xinyun.
"It's all here." Pushing open the door of the house, Yan Xi pointed to the two boxes placed on the ground and said.
Chu Xinyun walked over, opened the box, took out those travelogues and miscellaneous notes from it, and began to look through them one by one.
When she got tired of watching, she stopped, rubbed her eyes, and then continued to look. In the whole room, only the sound of books turning pages could be heard.
"Ah~ I found it!" Chu Xinyun pointed to where she had turned and shouted.
Then, she read it at a glance, kept the introduction of that thing in mind, and planned to surprise Yan Qinchang tomorrow.
The next day, it was the state dinner.
Yan Qinchang took the dressed Chu Xinyun and got into the carriage to the palace.
Chu Xinyun sat in the carriage, nervous, and asked Yan Qinchang from time to time: "Is there something wrong with my dress today." ”
"No, you're beautiful." Yan Qinchang looked at her with a doting expression, and reached out to help her hook a strand of hair hanging down her chest behind her ear.
Hearing Yan Qinchang say this, Chu Xinyun was relieved.
It was the first time she had participated in such a solemn feast, even though her etiquette had already been passed. But when she actually appeared at this banquet, she was a little unsure.
Yan Qinchang also knew that this was Chu Xinyun's first time participating, and it was inevitable that he would be nervous, so he stayed with her all the time. Praise her from time to time to increase her confidence.
On the banquet, Chu Xinyun and Yan Qinchang sat at their table.
"The envoys of the Xuan countries are here~" Gonggong Li, who was beside Emperor Qingheng, pinched his throat and shouted.
Chu Xinyun lay on Yan Qinchang's ear and secretly bit his ear, "This father-in-law's voice is sharper than mine." ”
Yan Qinchang smiled helplessly, and while no one was paying attention, he pinched her little *, "Hurry up and sit down obediently." ”
"Oh!" Chu Xin agreed and sat back honestly.
The two of them who thought that no one saw it, but they didn't know that all of this was seen by Zhao Meiya, who was sitting diagonally opposite them.
Zhao Meiya bit her lip with hatred, looked at the envoy who came up first, and suddenly had a plan in her heart. She had already learned from her sister that the envoy of Daqi would bring an unknown gift to present this time.
Then she will help Chu Xinyun that slut and make a good show.
Thinking of this, she hooked her lips and smiled, and glanced at Chu Xinyun proudly.
Chu Xinyun was puzzled by Zhao Meiya's laughter, and wondered why she smiled at her inexplicably. But at the same time, she also raised her vigilance, and always felt that Zhao Meiya had some ill intentions.
At this time, the envoys of Daqi had also lifted the red cloth, revealing the true face of the things inside.
Chu Xinyun's eyes widened, patted Yan Qinchang's arm, and asked quietly, "Isn't this what you painted yesterday?" ”
"Yes, yes!" Yan Qinchang didn't expect that the first envoy to come up was Daqi, if Da Li no one answered, it would really be a deep blow to Da Li's face.
"I don't know if anyone can recognize this? If it is recognized, then this thing will belong to Dali, if it is not recognized, then we will bring it back to Daqi. The envoy of the Great Qi said very arrogantly.
Emperor Qingheng, who was sitting on the top, changed his face in an instant, and his face became more and more majestic.
"Do you know anyone else?" Emperor Qingheng spoke.
There was a sudden silence below.
Seeing this, Emperor Qingheng's face darkened a little, and he secretly scolded this group of wastes in his heart, how powerful he usually said he was, and he couldn't count on any of them at a critical time.
"I heard that our princess Li is well-informed, she should be able to recognize this thing!" Zhao Meiya said slowly, and after speaking, she looked at Chu Xinyun with an expression of 'I'll see what you can do'.
Chu Xinyun narrowed her eyes and glanced back at her, then stood up, stroked the hem of her skirt, walked forward confidently, and looked around the square thing.
Then he said to Emperor Qingheng with a respectful face: "Emperor Qiqi, if I am not mistaken, this thing is called a clock, and it was transmitted from a country called Java on the other side of the sea. ”
Hearing Chu Xinyun's explanation, the envoy of the Great Qi suddenly turned pale.
When Emperor Qingheng saw it, he laughed heartily a few times and asked, "Great Qi envoy, is what my powerful princess said right?" ”
"Your Majesty, what the princess said is exactly right."
Chu Xinyun smiled and continued: "Great Qi envoys, this bell and end, the meaning is not very good, people who don't know still think that you Daqi is cursing us....."
Chu Xinyun didn't say the latter words, but everyone knew what she meant.
Emperor Qingheng's eyes suddenly became fierce, and his tone was also full of anger: "I didn't know that you Daqi still had this kind of thought. ”
