Chapter 017: The Emperor Blocks the Way
Zhang Xi felt that he didn't help much, so he smiled and said modestly, "Liu Shaodong is polite."
Huang Yi'an said with a smile: "The matter has not yet been decided, and it is too early for Liu Shaodong to thank him at this time." ”
Liu Ji arched his hand and said sincerely: "The two young ladies are ingenious, and this matter will definitely be successful." Even if the birthday gift can't be brilliant at that time, Liu Ji will also remember the help of the two young ladies today. ”
If the "Haiyan River Qing" paper kite can stand out from the crowd of birthday gifts, it is good to help Wuzhangfeng go to the next level; But if he can't, with the personalities of the two brothers and sisters of Zhang Chi, I'm afraid that he will apologize for this, and when the time comes, he can take the opportunity to get closer to the British government and find a stable backer.
So no matter how you calculate it, it's a sure-fire deal.
"There is another matter, I need to ask Miss Huang for help." Liu Jichong and Huang Yi'an smiled and invited.
Huang Yi'an asked with a smile: "But do you want me to participate in the production of 'Haiyan Heqing' to ensure the smooth take-off of the paper kite?" ”
Liu Ji praised: "Miss Huang is really smart, this is exactly what happened." ”
After that, he expressed his worries: "If you want to paint the shape of mountains and rivers on the masked surface of the paper kite, and the prosperity of the people, in order to show the prestige of our great Qi, it is bound to be huge, so the smooth release of the paper kite has become the biggest problem." Therefore, Ms. Huang's guidance is still needed. ”
"Colorful Feiluan Illustration" is only a dead picture after all, and it is very different from the shape of "Haiyan Heqing", where do you want Huang Yi'an himself to ask for advice?
Huang Yi'an smiled: "Actually, I think that the paper kite shape does not need to be too big. Instead of making a giant paper kite that may not be able to fly successfully, it is better to make a set of paper kites with the same title that can ensure a smooth flight. ”
"What does Miss Huang mean by that?" Liu Ji's eyes lit up, and he asked.
It sounds like a novel idea.
Huang Yi'an said: "Paper kites fly steadily and high, and they are good paper kites." However, the distance is far away, and no matter how large the shape of the paper kite is, it is inevitable that the drawings on it will not be clear. Therefore, it is better to choose the magnificent scenery of Kyushu, draw a picture of each, and paint the mask to the maximum while ensuring a smooth take-off. In this way, the people on the ground can see the scene painted on the paper kite to the greatest extent.
"In this way, the paper kite for blessing and birthday can also be made alone, the leader or the arch guard other paper kites, which not only reduces the difficulty of making and flying paper kites, but also can better express the wish of the Empress Dowager Cisheng Blessing and Longevity, and pray for the peace and prosperity of the Great Qi Jiangshan for all generations."
"Wonderful! Wonderful! It's just wonderful! Liu Ji praised one after another, as if he had seen the magnificent and heroic scene of more than a dozen paper kites marching towards the sky.
"It's just that, in this way, the requirements for the person who puts the paper kite are high." Huang Yi'an reminded.
If you choose the person who puts the paper kite in advance and then send it to the palace, you need to make a good point in advance, so as not to get in when you get it, or you can't test it smoothly after sending it in; If it is the palace people who put paper kites, then it is even more necessary to make arrangements in advance and select the best players to ensure that nothing goes wrong.
Liu Ji must be more proficient in these things than her, so Huang Yi'an stopped at the point.
"Thank you Miss Huang for reminding me, I'll arrange it when I go back." Liu Ji thanked him, and sincerely asked, "If there is any problem in the paper kite making at that time, I will have to trouble Miss Huang to solve my doubts." ”
"Don't dare to be, Liu Shaodong is too polite." Huang Yi'an returned the salute.
Liu Ji thanked him again and said with a smile: "There are two young ladies today, the matter is over, I don't dare to delay the two of you any longer." Liu Ji retired first, and the two young ladies asked for help. ”
Although he is accompanied by Zhang Chi, as a foreign man, it is not good for him to sit here for a long time.
Zhang Xi and Huang Yi'an then said goodbye.
Zhang Chi, who had been sitting there drinking tea and never said a word: ......
So, is this the third time he has made a humanoid ornament after accompanying Xiaomei to witness the signing of the contract between Miss Huang and Wuzhangfeng last time?
Fortunately, he stopped by today, and he had other important things to do.
Zhang Chi let out a long breath, and then Liu Ji got up and walked out of the private room.
The two said goodbye at the top of the staircase.
Liu Ji went downstairs to find Liu Xiu and instructed her to entertain Zhang Xi and Huang Yi'an on her behalf, and he went back to Wuzhangfeng to arrange all the affairs of the birthday gift.
Zhang Chi turned his feet and went up to the third floor.
The huge third floor was empty, with only a few sidecar guards guarding the staircase and windows.
Seeing Zhang Chi coming up, the guards clasped their fists and saluted.
Zhang Chi returned the salute with his fists and walked straight to the innermost private room.
At the door of the private room, there was also a guard with a knife on one side, and when he saw Zhang Chi coming, he whispered inward: "The third young master is here." ”
A gentle but majestic voice sounded from within: "Let him in." ”
The guard pushed open the door and stretched out his hand to please: "Third Young Master, please." ”
Zhang Chi stepped in.
The door closed behind him.
Zhang Chi lifted his robe, knelt on one knee, hugged his fists and said, "The last general, Zhang Chi, knock to see Your Majesty." ”
Behind the fine silk screen painted with light ink landscape, the figure of a young man sitting upright is faintly revealed, although it is not clear to describe, but the figure is tall and handsome, and it looks awe-inspiring.
"Ziping, please get up." The young man's warm and clear voice sounded with a hint of hoarseness unique to his age, a little more brisk than before.
Zhang Chi received the order to get up, turned to the back of the screen, hugged his fists and bowed deeply to the young man, and pleaded: "The end will be late, please ask Your Majesty to surrender." ”
"I have a private visit, it is inconvenient to make a statement, Ziping helps me cover up, what is the crime?" The young man smiled and said, "Sit down and talk." ”
Zhang Chi gave another deep thanks: "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”
Then he was ordered to sit down.
Today, he was begged by Zhang Xiyang to leave the house as an accompaniment, and before he arrived at Tao Ranju, he was stopped by Feng Lin, a chamberlain who pretended to be a small servant, and led him to an ordinary carriage parked on the side of the street, and then saw the emperor sitting in the car.
"I left the palace today, because I planned to choose a unique birthday gift for my mother. Ziping grew up in the capital since he was a child, and he wants to know where there are rare things in the capital, so how about being a guide for me? The Emperor asked with a smile.
The emperor has an order, he naturally does not dare to disobey, when he clenches his fists and responds: "The last general will take the order!" It's just that I also ask Your Majesty Rong Mo to send someone to inform her sister that today's appointment is temporarily canceled. ”
But the emperor smiled and said, "It doesn't have to be like this. Where are you about to be? ”
"Tao Ranju." He bowed back.
……
Then, there's the current situation.
"Ziping said before, today Sister Ling asked you to accompany you, but what I want to see is the young owner of Wuzhangfeng, I don't know what's going on?" The young man asked leisurely with tea in his hand.
Well, he doesn't like to inquire, but it's hard to get out of the palace, and he doesn't have to face Zhang Shoufu's strict teachings and the earnest teachings of his mother...... In order to understand the people's feelings!
When Zhang Chi saw that the emperor had asked, he naturally didn't dare to slack off, and even reported the matter clearly.
The young Son of Heaven was surprised when he heard this: "It's also for the queen mother's birthday?" ”
What a coincidence!
Without waiting for Zhang Chi to answer, he continued to ask: "The Miss Huang who came up with the idea of 'Haiyan Heqing', but the young lady who was injured under Diecuixuan that day?" ”
