Chapter 295: Feasting
Your Majesty's special invitation to her?
Qiao Ran looked flattered, and looked at Zhen Shiyuan with wide eyes: "Lord Zhen, aren't you lying to me again?" ”
Although it is a great event for His Majesty to give an invitation, Zhen Shiyuan didn't think that the girl in front of him would be surprised like this, seeing her startled look, Zhen Shiyuan couldn't help frowning: "Enough is enough, you can stop in moderation!" Don't pretend! ”
The girl accepted the surprised look, looked down at the invitation in her hand, and her expression changed from the previous shock to playfulness: "Why did Your Majesty give me the invitation?" ”
"Because of the case of Ah Furong and the murder of Fang Weizhou, you handled it well. Although it is said to be luck, His Majesty said that a person with such luck must be a lucky star, and it is not bad to have a lucky star town for a banquet. Speaking of this, Zhen Shiyuan himself seemed to feel a little funny, "In Jinling, everyone calls you a broom star, and when you come to Chang'an, Your Majesty calls you Fuxing, this is really a feng shui wheel that turns ......."
If this is in Jinling at the beginning of this year, if someone says that Miss Qiao, who was released from the Zhuangzi, is a lucky star personally certified by His Majesty, I am afraid that she will be chased and beaten by the people, thinking that there is something wrong with her brain!
Rao is Zhen Shiyuan thinks that he has experienced a lot of ups and downs in his life, but in the face of the girl in front of him, he still feels ashamed.
In just a few months, from the broom star that everyone hates, all the way to today, and even being invited to His Majesty's birthday banquet, this ups and downs are really amazing.
The girl took the invitation back into her sleeve and looked at Zhen Shiyuan: "Lord Zhen, you and I will go to Dali Temple together, and you will come to pick me up when the time comes!" ”
"It doesn't matter if you go on your own." Zhen Shiyuan muttered, but at the girl's curious look, he thought about it, and said, "Okay, the official will send someone to pick you up." ”
The carriage just made one more trip.
The girl thought for a moment and said, "Then do you want to change your dress?" For example, if you wear something more expensive, after all, you must always wear something different on such occasions, and you must be solemn to show your identity, which is what is written in the book......"
Zhen Shiyuan's forehead was bruised, pointed to the official robe on her body, and said, "This is not solemn enough?" Not enough to show identity? You went to the banquet with the official, don't look at the mess in those books, you don't have to make people think that the official is old and disrespectful! ”
When he's old, what does it look like to bring a little girl in a delicate dress? He's a serious reader.
Qiao Ran laughed, and when she had laughed enough, she said, "I see, then I think I and Master Zhen will be arranged together?" ”
Zhen Shiyuan said: "Your Majesty's actions have always been one thing, whether it is to hold a banquet to celebrate the birthday and the Mid-Autumn Festival, or to celebrate the birthday and the Mid-Autumn Festival, there is no other mess, you can rest assured!" ”
Qiao Ran said: "Then what does His Majesty do on his birthday?" Watching singing and dancing? Firework? Vaudeville? No, I haven't been back to Beijing for several years, so I shouldn't have been invited by His Majesty to attend the birthday banquet. ”
"Don't take the official's words," Zhen Shiyuan glanced at her angrily, and at this time he already understood what was going on with her previous upside-down words, "The official participated before he left Beijing, if you want to ask about the birthday banquet, just ask." ”
Qiao Ran stroked her palms and smiled, and praised in her mouth: "You are still an adult, you are amazing, and you will know what I want to ask as soon as you hear it." ”
Zhen Shiyuan snorted and said, "Don't be nervous, every year, there will be officials from various ministries who are brilliant in their work and are invited to attend His Majesty's birthday banquet together." He said and glanced at Qiao Ran, the implication is that you are not the only one, what is the blind nervousness.
"That is, eat and drink, oh, by the way, there are many fruits from Fanbang at the birthday banquet, many of which you have never seen, the taste is very good, if you like it, you can take it home if you can't eat it."
It sounds quite down-to-earth, Qiao Ran said in her heart, you can still pack, this is different from what you have seen before!
"Your Majesty advocates frugality, don't waste it, and you won't be laughed at for doing such things." Zhen Shiyuan explained, "In addition to the fruits from the tribute, there are also moon cakes and longevity buns made in the imperial dining room, which are also a must, and you can't take them away if you can't finish eating." Oh, by the way, there will be gold chestnuts at each table, remember to take it away, made of gold, it is worth a lot of money! ”
Qiao Ran listened carefully, and after listening to Zhen Shiyuan's babbling, she asked, "What else?" ”
"What else?" Zhen Shiyuan glanced at her and said, "In addition to eating and drinking, I took the gold water chestnut that was sent, I watched juggling, singing and dancing, and fireworks, and I went home after watching it." He didn't like to watch these things for a long time, that is, to have a good time, and this girl, although it is the age when he likes to have fun, Zhen Shiyuan still thinks that this girl is much calmer than her peers, and she may not like this kind of thing.
This is really a pure birthday banquet that can't be more pure, Qiao Ran said in her heart.
Zhen Shiyuan said this, thought about it for a while, and reminded Qiao Ran: "Don't throw away the invitation to you, every year after the birthday banquet, the private rich chamber of commerce inquires about receiving this invitation for collection." After all, these are the only people who can be invited to the birthday banquet, ordinary people can't go in, and those adults who claim their identities won't sell invitations. This official is a Dali Siqing, and this matter will be gossiped about. Well, you don't have this concern, you can sell this invitation after the banquet to subsidize the family. ”
Can it still be like this? The more Qiao Ran listened, the more interesting she felt, in Zhen Shiyuan's mouth, this birthday banquet became more and more down-to-earth, and it was not surprising that collectors liked these things.
"In short, you don't have to be too nervous, just go to an ordinary birthday banquet with this official," Zhen Shiyuan stroked his beard and sighed, "And Your Majesty will only talk to those people in the clan and the first-class members of the court, and no one will care about you and me." Be a good foil, and leave directly after eating. ”
The dignified Dali Siqing is naturally just a foil at this birthday banquet where dragons and phoenixes, golden branches and jade leaves are all over the place, and a master of a product grabs a quasi-birthday, let alone Qiao Ran.
"Oh, by the way, the palace is very big," Zhen Shiyuan said in a thorough manner adhering to the principle that since he is nagging, he will nag thoroughly, "You don't walk around, if you eat too much, you have to go to the toilet or something, just find the palace people behind you and take it." Don't go around by yourself, get involved in any incident, this has happened in the past. ”
Qiao Ran snorted, pointed at herself, and said, "My lord, do you think I am a troublemaker like this?" ”
It's not, but it's really a lot of trouble, Zhen Shiyuan said secretly. However, although this girl often provokes trouble for no reason, she can solve these things herself. Therefore, I don't think she's troublesome, at most I think she's a little unlucky.
Unlucky? Thinking of this, Zhen Shiyuan's face showed a rare look of incomprehension. So is she a lucky star or a broom star now?
