Chapter Ninety-Six: Zhu Yingtai's Father
"Our envoy, Princess Anne, met Miss Yi when she came, and they became good friends at first sight," Cheng Nuo patted the carriage: "As for whether it is the person you said it is, I don't know." ”。
The carriage curtain opened, and Cheng Nuo helped Anne to stand on the frame, which immediately caused a commotion, whether it was the outfit on her body or her blonde appearance, she knew at a glance that it was definitely not a Chinese appearance. Anne was tall and temperamental, and clearly well-educated.
The princess is not a princess that others can't judge, but obviously it won't be an ordinary commoner.
Cheng Nuo didn't know if it was appropriate for him to say this or do it, anyway, he did it when he thought it was appropriate. As far as a guy like him who has little experience in palace fighting, letting Anne shine can spread his identity as soon as possible on the one hand, and on the other hand, he can also maintain Zhu Yingtai's reputation.
… Of course, it is better to be with an ordinary person than with a monk, and it is certainly better to be with a monk than with a princess from a foreign country.
As for Anne's experience, she has a lot of experience in foreign travel, but she doesn't know what to do as such a strange envoy.
The city gate official glared at the family fiercely, didn't say more, and didn't let Cheng Nuo say more, with a straight face, he ordered people to disperse the crowd, and personally reported to the county guard with a letter of introduction, that is, the national secretary.
… As for checking inside the carriage? Let's wait for the order of the county guard. Anyway, the county guard is a member of the Ma family, and Miss Zhu is going to marry his son.
Of course, the letter of introduction written in English is estimated to be incomprehensible to the officials here. Even if I can find someone, I don't know when. Cheng Nuo did not pretend to be profound, and attached the translation very intimately.
In the translation, while highlighting his identity, he highlights the gifts that will be presented, which are rare and rare.
Although Cheng Nuo is not sure when glass was invented, he is sure that it was not in this era. In the small talk with Zhu Yingtai in the morning, Cheng Nuo already knew that the dynasty he was in was the Jin Dynasty, and no matter how much his history was taught by the physical education teacher, he could basically determine the general age, which was the Three Kingdoms and the Two Jin Dynasties and the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and Cheng Nuo could still recite this sentence.
In this dynasty, there was definitely no glass, so the magic mirror that became an ordinary dressing mirror was definitely a treasure in this era. Not to mention the height of the mirror, even a small round mirror can be called a national treasure here.
You must know that people in this era still use bronze mirrors. No matter how polished the art is, it is very different from the glass mirror.
Of course, because this is a film after all, and the socio-cultural situation reflected is likely to be different from the real history. Just like Liang Shanbo's background, he actually became an official through the imperial examination, even Cheng Nuo knew that such a trendy thing as the imperial examination was definitely not something that could be played in such an era, but it happened, and it was normal to see the reaction of Zhu Yingtai and other natives. Cheng Nuo didn't mean to delve into it.
So for the sake of safety, Cheng Nuo specially let Zhu Yingtai's master and servant look at it before leaving, and the reactions of the two made Cheng Nuo very satisfied. The little maid shouted out at that time, and Zhu Yingtai couldn't help but take a few steps closer, and turned around in front of the mirror.
According to the two of them, they have never seen anything so magical.
"That's what I used to look like!" This is the little girl's reaction.
Cheng Nuo once half-jokingly asked Zhu Yingtai if he would like to use this mirror in exchange for her not to be martyred, and Zhu Yingtai rarely hesitated for a while before refusing. This does not mean that Zhu Yingtai is not deeply affectionate towards Liang Shanbo, women are born with a love of beauty, and their nature is like this, this is no way.
Because of this, even the master and servant of Zhu Yingtai are convinced of the identity of Cheng Nuo's foreign envoys.
Therefore, Cheng Nuo felt that he was quite confident in pretending to be an envoy. As for the whole mission, there are only two people, and it is very shabby... What does it matter, when Tang Seng went to learn the scriptures, wasn't he just one person at the beginning? In the end, under the strong recommendation of Guanyin Bodhisattva, the intermediary, he also got together four people and a horse, which is no better than himself.
Besides, isn't it all about this mission? … The huge envoy encountered a huge storm while crossing the sea, desperately protected the princess and no gift, and somehow got here, and in the end there were only two people left... This kind of bridge comes casually.
Half an hour passed quickly. In this era, the time to transmit a message is too long, and I am afraid that this is also the original intention of the invention of the telegraph and telephone.
It is definitely not appropriate to block the city gate all the time, Cheng Nuo and they were brought to a relatively empty place in the city gate after the city gate official left, Cheng Nuo pulled the horse and walked away, and the family had sneaked away at some point, presumably to report to Zhu Yingtai's father.
Cheng Nuo didn't care, it was a matter of time before anyway.
Although the soldiers were constantly driving around the carriage, there were still many people watching from a distance. Who makes there are too few entertainment projects in this era, and everyone has no Internet, if you want to know some gossip, it is the fastest and most convenient to observe it closely.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, get out of the way!" There was a commotion, two tall horses at the head, two horses behind the palace, a luxury car in the middle, and more than a dozen foot family guards were fully armed and trotted all the way to the side, coming quickly in the direction of Cheng Nuo and others at the city gate.
People on the streets stepped aside.
Cheng Nuo stood on the side of the carriage, the curtain of the carriage opened a corner, and the voice of the little maid was obviously flustered: "It's the master's car." ”
… Zhu Yingtai's father? It's coming fast enough.
The carriage on the opposite side stopped not far in front of Cheng Nuo, and the four knights flashed a distance to the side, and seven or eight family members rushed to the front and looked at Cheng Nuo.
A housekeeper lifted the curtain of the carriage and helped a middle-aged man out of the carriage. This family Ding Cheng Nuo knows, it is the same family before.
Listening to the name of this family member and looking at his expression, the guy who came down and still looked black even if he was smeared with thick powder should be Zhu Yingtai's father and the current head of the Zhu family.
… Zhu Yingtai must look like her mother.
Zhu Yingtai's father strode forward, swept the carriage beside Cheng Nuo with a slightly fierce eye, and immediately brought out a trace of violence, pointing at Cheng Nuo: "Is it you, a wild monk, who dare to harm my Zhu family?" ”
Cheng Nuo's eyes were picked, this temper was explosive and straight enough.
A soft cry and noticeably rapid breathing came from the carriage beside Cheng Nuo.
Cheng Nuo looked at Zhu Yingtai's father, with a little curiosity and research in his eyes. People say that tigers don't eat children, and in the movies that Cheng Nuo has watched, no matter how bastard the villain is, he also has a kind side to his family, how can he let go of the guy on the other side and it won't work?
… For the sake of his own interests, he forced his daughter to have a political marriage, but he wanted to kill his daughter because he didn't hear about it, which is not something ordinary people can do.
