Chapter 465: Palace Banquet 9
When she arrived at the gate, Mrs. Jian'an Hou gave Pearl 5,000 taels of silver tickets, telling her to take good care of Anyang; gave Pearl a piece of jade pendant, and asked Pearl to come to Jian'an Houfu to find her if she had any needs.
Sending Mrs. Jian'an Hou away, Pearl stood at the gate of the princess's mansion and looked at the jade pendant in her hand and fell into deep thought, maybe she found a way to live, and she can live very well.
Princess Anyang's banquet made the people of the capital have a topic to talk about for a long time, and Anyang's house arrest made other people's lives relatively comfortable.
It's almost the Mid-Autumn Festival of the year, and every household is ready to welcome the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the palace is also very lively, and the palace people of the Internal Affairs Office are even more busy with their feet not touching the ground.
There was a group of people sitting on the waterway from China and Vietnam to the north.
Sitting in the middle are the four princes of Southern Chu, and sitting on his left side are the six princes of Southern Chu, both of whom are gorgeously dressed and full of the luxury and nobility of the royal family.
The appearance of the two is a few more prosperous than the four princes, it is said that his appearance is to follow her mother, and her mother is also a more beautiful one in the group of concubines of the Southern Chu Emperor.
Compared with the appearance of the six princes sitting next to him, it seems a little ordinary, probably following the emperor of Southern Chu, so the emperor loves this six princes very much.
Although these six princes have no talent for governing the country and their minds are not smart, the Emperor of Southern Chu still asked him to come with the four princes to increase his knowledge.
You must know that the courtiers of the two countries must have a smart mind and a broad vision, otherwise it is very likely that when they go to other countries, they will bring a series of subsequent troubles to their own countries because of improper speech or lack of clarity of mind.
"Brother, look, the house over there is so neat and beautiful~"
opened her mouth to shout that her brother was Princess Jianning, the youngest princess of Nanchu, and the younger sister of the six princes and one mother, who was two years younger than the six princes, only sixteen years old.
This princess is much more selective than her own brother, tall and tall, with a goose egg face, fox eyes, cherry mouth and a tall nose, which is really beautiful.
In Nanchu, there is a rumor that this princess is the flesh fetus of a fairy in the mortal world.
It turned out that the birthday of this princess was the day of the death of Nanchu's Xishui Niang Niang, and even the time of her birth was the same, all in the morning.
Although this princess and the six princes look different, there are still many similarities if you look closely, such as this cherry mouth and full forehead, but the other facial features are different.
Especially this cherry mouth is even more incongruous when it is placed on the face of the six princes.
"China and Vietnam have developed rapidly in the past two years, and the prosperity of this country can be seen by taking the waterway, the architectural features on both sides of the strait, and the number and quality of ships on the water."
"Yes, ten years ago, I had the honor to come to China and Vietnam with Xiangye, and at that time, where did they have such prosperity."
"Fourth brother, didn't you take the land route back then? How do you know what is going on this waterway? ”
"The sixth brother has a good memory, I remember that the sixth brother was just a six-year-old child at the time."
"Thank you for the praise of the fourth brother, I am more playful and the fourth brother should know, so I am more impressed by these things."
"Hahaha, it's a good thing to have a good memory, the sixth brother doesn't have to explain."
"We did take the land route, according to the prime minister's meaning to take the waterway, but unfortunately after arriving in China and Vietnam, we found that the waterway in China and Vietnam was very backward, and the ships were relatively small, and it was okay to go short distances, but it was still more dangerous for long distances, so we decided to take the land route.
As an official land route, it is naturally a place where some docks connect with waterways, and we have also carefully checked and found that the scale of their docks is very small, and the number of pedestrians is pitiful, only many fishing boats and cargo ships are busy here.
