Chapter 168: The Prince of England
After a while, Prince Witte stood up.
"Oh God! The queen mother of the Great Qing Kingdom is really ...... Well...... Beautiful? As he spoke, he frowned and looked at the translator behind him.
The translator whispered a few words, and he said: "It is graceful and luxurious, and the city and the country are captivated!" ”
Li Yan smiled and said: "Prince Witt praised it falsely, I have always heard that the queen, queen, and princess of the British royal family are all beauties." ”
“
o
o
o The queen is a beauty! A real beauty! It is the darling of heaven! He said this in English, and the translator said it again.
Page Bozhe's brows furrowed slightly, and he felt that this prince was a little excessive, but he didn't seem to think anything about it, so he didn't speak, and he didn't care if he looked at Huang Ama again.
"Thank you to the prince for the compliment." After saying this, Li Yan didn't have time to say goodbye, so the fourth master said, "Sit down." ”
Prince Witte had actually seen the queen before, but he really didn't see anything different in that outfit. It's like the three ladies sitting in the back, all of them are wooden people.
However, after changing this outfit, it is so amazing and smart! Only then could I not help but speak out.
When the fourth master saw Li Yan sitting back in his seat, he smiled at her and stopped talking.
After a while, Prince Nawit stood up and said, "I have brought gifts, hoping that His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Qing Kingdom." The queen can like it. ”
The fourth master smiled: "It's polite, since it was brought by the prince, I will naturally treat it as a treasure." ”
Prince Witte called for the gifts to be brought in, and seven or eight large boxes were opened outside the hall, and the first to be brought in was a half-man tall golden table clock. It is all carved in European style, gold inlaid with rubies, angels, and naked children, which look like European and American things.
"This is our country's clock, specially designed for the royal family, and there are five of them, which I think is just right for the grandeur of this palace." Prince Witte said with a smile.
He took out a crown and said: "This is a crown modeled after the crown of our Queen of England, which was originally my private collection, and now, I want to dedicate it to the queen, please ask His Majesty the Emperor for permission." ”
This is the translator who warned him just now that the Qing Dynasty is not England, and if you want to give something to a woman, you must first ask the man to agree.
The fourth master smiled and said, "Since it is given to the queen, there is no gift that you will not receive." ”
Prince Witt came to Li Yan with the crown in his hand.
The concubines sitting behind her were inevitably nervous. However, Li Yan always sat with a smile on his face.
Page Bozhe was also a little nervous, wouldn't it be okay to let foreign envoys get close to Eniang? But no one dared to move.
Prince Witte approached and picked up the crown with a smile and said, "Although this is not a treasure handed down by our royal family, it is also modeled after that, I hope the queen mother likes it." ”
Li Yan smiled and stood up and said: "Thank you for the prince's love, this palace has accepted it, and this palace should also give the prince a gift, and when the prince goes back, this palace will personally present it." ”
Prince Witt hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Queen Mother, I have a ...... Appropriate requirements. He said in broken Chinese.
"Prince, please." Li Yan said with a smile.
Prince Witte shook his head slightly and said with a smile: "The queen is the most beautiful oriental woman I have ever seen, I want to ask our painter to paint the appearance of the queen mother, so that the beauty of the queen will last forever." ”
"It's a trivial matter, naturally, and the palace is also grateful to the prince for leaving the palace as it is at this time." Li Yan said with a smile.
Prince Witte was very excited, after all, he thought that with the dignity of the queen, he would not accept his opinion.
"Oh, Your Majesty the Queen Mother, you are truly an angel! Please accept my etiquette! Prince Witt looked excited, and as he spoke, he got down on one knee and stretched out his right hand.
The people in the distance didn't know what was said here, but the fourth master knew.
The fourth master also knows this English person, what kind of cheek kiss etiquette, kiss hand ceremony or something, it is not easy to refuse at this time, the little thing in his heart must be panicked, so he wants to remind him.
However, Li Yan did not panic, and did not care about the mistakes of Prince Werther's language. Already smiling, he stretched out his left hand, let Prince Navit grasp his fingertips, and kissed the back of his hand gently.
Although the ministers of the DPRK and China have never seen such a thing, they basically know that this is English etiquette.
But several concubines in the harem were scared.
How can you ask a foreign man to touch his hands, not to mention ...... They were too ashamed to look at it.
But seeing that the queen mother smiled and was kissed by the prince, there was no dissatisfaction, and they sat down, and their hearts were a lot more settled. Peeking at Long Live Lord, he was also smiling, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The queen is worthy of being the queen mother, she just can sit still.
The ministers thought the same in their hearts, although Niangniang was not from a family, she was very polite and polite, and she was always calm on the big scene.
"Since the prince has come to Daqing, he should taste the good wine of our Daqing, come, prince, please." Page Bozhe stood up and raised his glass.
He is now the highest-ranking person among the princes.
"Bellor, please." Prince Witt also raised his glass, drank a cup, and then asked, "Is Xiangbeile the younger brother of the queen's mother?" "Forgive him, I don't know these Baylors at all, is the relationship between the prince and the royal family good?
He just looked at Xiangbeile and looked like a queen.
As soon as these words came out, everyone around laughed.
"Xiangbeile is the son of the queen's mother, and the sixth prince of our Qing Dynasty." Sun Jiagan said with a smile.
"Oh! Buy Karma! Prince Witte was stunned. looked at Page Bozhe, and then looked at Li Yan, I couldn't think of it.
"The queen is so young!" In the end, that's all I can say.
"Thank you Prince for the compliment, come, drink." Page Bozhe drew back Prince Werther's attention, although England is like this, but this is the Qing Dynasty, and he doesn't want Eniang to have any bad rumors because of this.
The banquet didn't end until dusk, and Li Yan was too tired to do anything. I left a little early.
"The master is tired, go back and lie down first." Qiaozhu smiled and helped Li Yan to get up.
"Let's go to the Qianqing Palace." Li Yan sat down and said.
The group went directly to the Qianqing Palace.
After entering the apse, I changed Li Yan's clothes first, and there are homely clothes here. changed into a tree-blue flag suit, let go of her hair and didn't hold it, and gave her a hundred strokes by Qiaozhu.
"I'll sleep first, and wait for the Lord Banzai to come back and call me." Li Yan got up early, and he was already very sleepy.
When the fourth master came back, he took Ye Bozhe Hongday with him, and he wanted to talk to them about things.
As soon as he came back, he knew that Li Yan was coming, so he smiled and didn't care, and talked to his sons first.
After finishing speaking, he said: "At this time, I am not in a hurry to leave the palace, let's have dinner together, and then go back after using it." ”
The two of them should go down and go to the apse together.
Li Yan was just woken up by Qiaozhu, and he hadn't put on his coat yet.
I don't comb it anymore, just use a hairpin to pull it up at will, and forget it, anyway, it's a sleep.
Li Yan came out and said, "I heard you guys coming." ”
"I've seen the emperor's mother." The two children said together.
"Get up and sit down." Li Yan smiled, and went over to sit next to the fourth master as he spoke.
Hongtian looked at it for a while, but he didn't dare to look at it. The emperor's mother is not well-groomed, and she shouldn't look at it.
In front of his own family, Ye Bozhe doesn't care about this. I just feel that Eniang's bamboo leaf green clothes, her hair is loosely pulled, and the powder is not applied, and it looks really small.
"E-Niang is blessed, no wonder Prince Nawit thinks that Erchen is E-Niang's younger brother!" Page Bozhe said with a grin.
"What nonsense, you didn't wake up from the wine you drank at noon, right?" Li Yan also laughed and joked about the child, after all, if he said that he was young or something, this must be beautiful!
"What's the matter, what kind of alcohol does my son drink, the English people are not used to drinking our wine, he poured a few glasses, and then his son didn't drink much."
Page Bozhe won't tell E-Niang, that Prince Werther looked at E-niang's eyes and made him very unhappy! t^t
The fourth master smiled and looked at the page, Bozhe teased his mother. The little thing smiled as innocently as a child.
The fourth master reached out to help her pull the broken hair that fell from her ear and said, "Are you hungry?" ”
"A little hungry, are you hungry?" Li Yan felt it, as if he was hungry.
"Let's eat, then." The fourth master laughed at her, you just asked, what do you tell the children to say? Foolish.
After a while, a table of meals was served, with more than 60 dishes, all of which were ...... Suspicious of the hormone.
How to say it, it won't be clear that there are big fish and meat, but some dishes will not be vegetarian, such as all kinds of meatballs.
Hongday's regular eating, his eyes didn't dare to glance at it, and when Huang Ama tasted something delicious, he gave Huang Eniang a chopstick, and Huang Eniang only ate it, and was not grateful.
He has seen this kind of situation countless times since he was a child, but he is still shocked every time he sees it.
Huang Ama and Huang Eniang are more like ordinary couples outside the palace, and even couples from poor families. Because the powerful are pampered, and they will not be so easy-going.
After eating, the fourth master drove the two children away.
Sitting and drinking tea with Li Yan.
The fourth master glanced at the crown given by Prince Werther who Li Yan put aside and said, "This is exquisite, but it can only be placed." ”
"Well, let's take a look, after all, it was given by someone, and I should return the gift." Li Yan leaned on the fourth master.
The fourth master said "um", and then asked, "What kind of gift are you going to give back?" Li Yan replied to him with half-squinted eyes: "It's nothing more than porcelain, tea, silk or something, that's what they like." ”
The fourth master chuckled: "You know it." Li Yan opened his eyes at this time and glanced at the fourth master: "Where did I come from, I'm afraid I forgot?" ”
The fourth master smiled: "If you don't mention it, I really forgot." ”
The fourth master really forgot, he is not the kind of person who wants to know the future, if he knows the future, then there is no motivation, and he will naturally not be so tired.
So the fourth master actually consciously downplayed these by himself, but when it came to foreign countries, the fourth master began to cheer up and wanted to hear it.
