Chapter 34: Congratulatory Gifts

Early in the morning, Wang Quanquan was woken up by the sound of firecrackers, he covered his head with a quilt in dissatisfaction, and did not forget to say a sentence in his mouth: "Whose family is funeral." Unexpectedly, the sound of firecrackers not only did not get quieter, but became louder.

No, why is the sound of firecrackers so close, like a cannon in front of one's own house? Wang Quanquan hurriedly got out of bed and opened the door to check, only to find that the palace courtyard had become lively at some point.

Not only are the big red firecrackers crackling, but there is also a team of people dancing dragons and lions, and he casually pulls a subordinate who is busy with his work.

"What's going on out there?"

"Lord Wang, wake up, today you are officially crowned, and the officials in Beijing are here to celebrate you!"

"Why hasn't anyone mentioned it to me?" The king was puzzled, and he celebrated with this group of people for a long time, but he didn't know about it.

"The steward said that His Majesty ordered it, so I don't need to tell you."

Why didn't you tell me what my father had arranged? Wang Quanquan was a little confused for a while, and the subordinate saw that the master didn't take care of him anymore, so he went down and continued to work.

"Since it's a celebration, you can't be empty-handed!" Wang Quanquan immediately grasped the key to the matter, and then turned back to the house with a smile on his face.

After a while, the king's authority was cleaned up, and he was dressed in a blue brocade robe, with nine golden dragons embroidered with gold silk, and five-color moire and blessing and longevity patterns between them, and it was a blue satin flat gold embroidered python robe. Wang Quanquan has just turned eighteen now, and his body has completely grown, with a well-proportioned figure, a height of one meter eight and a well-cut python robe, but he is also worthy of the word personable.

Wang Quanquan shook a folding fan very coquettishly and paced out in the direction of the living room.

I met a lot of subordinates along the way, and seeing the king's authority was like seeing a ghost in broad daylight. Not to mention, this Eighth Highness, who is usually not four or six, is quite handsome when he dresses up seriously. Wang Quanquan couldn't help but feel secretly proud when he looked at the eyes of these subordinates, the pimples on his face were about to laugh, and he couldn't help nodding to the people around him, and the sense of handsomeness just now was swept away with his behavior.

There have been a lot of people gathered outside the living room, the highest official position is only from the second grade, those first-grade and second-grade officials are in the living room, and all the officials standing in the courtyard have taken the initiative to give way when they see the arrival of the king's authority, and they have bowed their hands, and they have not forgotten to say the words of congratulations, and the king's authority has returned the salute one by one.

The officials in the parlor were received by the newly appointed stewards, and they naturally made generous moves one by one. As soon as Wang Quanquan entered the door, he saw a coral tree that was as tall as a person, and the table was full of all kinds of rare treasures, such as Buddha statues made of pure gold, Guanyin statues made of fine jade carvings, and countless others.

It took a lot of effort for Wang Quanquan to withdraw his gaze from the table, and he looked calm on the surface, but his heart was already happy.

"Yo! Lord Liu, long time no see. ”

"Master Zhang, your complexion is getting better and better."

"Uncle Wang, why are you here in person?"

Wang Quanquan looked very familiar with everyone, and greeted enthusiastically, among these people there were not only the big officials of the dynasty, but also the kings and grandsons, and some of them had to shout uncles and uncles in terms of seniority. Everyone had only heard that His Royal Highness was a mallet before, but they never thought that he was so good at human feelings, and when he spoke, he watched people cook, giving everyone enough face, not as useless as rumored.

With the blessing of the king's authority, the whole living room is much more lively than before, to say that these people are very magical, obviously everyone is not very familiar and even has personal enmity, but now they are familiar like friends for more than ten years, and they have played the scene to the extreme.

After greeting everyone, the banquet was ready, and the royal authority of these things was not involved from beginning to end, and he didn't even know that he would invite them to dinner after receiving the gifts.

The royal authority is arranged to the main seat, and it is natural to have an opening statement as the master.

"Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for taking the time to come to my banquet, my brother is very moved, come, I'll mention one first!" With that, he raised his head and dried up a bowl of wine.

Everyone at the scene looked at each other, probably meaning that they understood, but they always felt that something was strange.

"Good!"

I don't know who took the lead in applauding, and everyone applauded.

"Everyone should eat and drink!" The kingship is still simple and straightforward.

This banquet lasted for two hours, from noon to afternoon, during which some people wanted to go to Wang Quanquan to toast, but it turned out that the prince of Ankang had left at some point.

In fact, the feast began to sneak away without royal power, and he had little interest in such lively occasions, the only thing he was interested in was the gifts they brought.

The king had ordered everything to be brought to his room, and he was to inspect it himself.

There were a lot of things, and the huge living room was full, and it took the king an afternoon to study them, most of them were valuables such as gold, silver, jade, porcelain, and silk, and even some people simply sent silver tickets.

Among them, the highest value is probably the coral tree that Wang Quan saw at first sight, the coral is the top red coral, which is much more precious than ordinary coral, and has the reputation of "one or two corals and one hundred taels of gold", and the value of this whole coral tree is even more immeasurable.

The king couldn't help but caress the coral, thinking to himself who is so generous, to go through the roster and take a look, it was given by Pan Ziqian, the prince of Anbei.

"Pan Ziqian?"

Wang Quanquan muttered, he had some impressions of this name, before this prince spent 500,000 taels at his auction and took away a few glass products, at that time he felt that this kid was quite generous, but today, he still underestimated him, the value of this coral tree can not only be measured by money.

Although the royal authority is greedy for money, if he really accepts such a priceless coral tree, he will inevitably be a little weak-hearted. After thinking about it for a while, he planned to meet this prince who was not bad for money another day, after all, King Anbei's family was very wild from beginning to end.

In this batch of gifts, in addition to this coral, the most can enter the eyes of the king is a brocade box, the brocade box packaging is not gorgeous, but the weight is not light, people who don't know also think that there will be a jade Ruyi or gold bar or something like that, Wang Quanquan thought so at first, until he opened it and found that it was a musket.

The Dynasty Ordnance Factory also produced some firearms, but did not equip the army on a large scale, but only formed a musket team in Jinghuwei, and the responsibility of the musket team was not to fight, but to carry out the task of firing guns on occasions such as worshipping the heavens and ancestors, which was equivalent to a substitute for firecrackers.

Previously, Wang Quanquan specially asked for a firearm from the ordnance institute, wanting to know the current level of guns, but when he got his hands, he found that the production was very rough, not only did he not have the butt handguard crosshair, but he didn't even have a trigger. It is an iron rod with a pipe at the front end, and a hole is drilled at the end of the pipe to install the fire rope, and each shot needs to be filled with gunpowder projectiles, and it must be cleaned up and reloaded after excitation, which also leads to its slow speed, the accuracy is also extremely poor, and it does not have actual combat effect at all.
