Chapter 60: Tianxiang Building

Chapter 60 Tianxiang Building

It was impossible for Chi Xia to slap himself in the face, so he could only let Miao Miao accompany him and put on the queen's court clothes.

Now it is a winter court dress.

It is composed of a crown, a robe, a gown, a skirt and a bead.

The winter court clothes are heavy, and the edges of the bright yellow court robes are also decorated with mink down, and even the hats are covered with thick mink fleece, and the clothes are also equipped with collars and shoulder pads.

Not to mention that there are twenty catties in this set, it is definitely more than ten catties.

Chi Xia saluted Yongzheng with difficulty: "It's okay, right?" ”

The queen is of medium height, about 1.6 meters tall, but because she is sick and weak all the year round, she is very thin.

And her height is actually taller than the queen, and she eats well and sleeps well every day, not as thin as the queen.

But the court dress is wide and solemn, and it is inevitable that it will be made bigger.

So as soon as this outfit was on her body, it became very snuggly.

Her appearance is not stunning, but she is always radiant and has her own bearing, not like she is framed in the court clothes, but seems to complement the court clothes.

Yongzheng remembered that she talked eloquently under the candlelight last night, how to develop people's livelihood and "infrastructure" after making money from foreigners, and only felt that she and this court dress had their own brilliance and reflected each other.

He was slightly stunned for a moment before nodding at her: "No courtesy." ”

Chi Xia was made big by the complicated clothes, and he didn't notice his expression at all.

I saw Cao Meng kneeling there and even his face was about to touch the ground, and he realized the "coolness" of someone supporting him, so he hurriedly pulled Miao Miao to help and took off the ten-pound outfit.

When she changed into her own clothes, she instantly felt that her hands and feet were relaxed.

Yongzheng was still waiting for her, and when he saw her change her clothes and come out, he stretched out his hand to her: "Let's go, Nian Xiyao has finished reading, and he is looking for you." ”

Nian Xiyao looked for her, it must be talking about technology.

Chi Xia also felt that these court clothes, auspicious clothes, and regular clothes looked very similar, and he was not interested in looking at them again.

~~~

Gao Qizhuo arranged a banquet in the governor's palace today, and waited for the holy driver at the gate of the weaving bureau for a long time, and finally saw the master come out, but he was rejected again.

Yongzheng still had a little affection for him, and only waved his hand and said no.

Looking at the pampering and arrogance of the Cao family, he already has a "shadow" of going to the courtier's house for dinner and accommodation.

As soon as Chi Xia looked up, he saw a restaurant opposite. There are no signboards and it looks low-key.

simply proposed: "It's time to eat, why don't we eat in this restaurant?" Spend money on eating, just like a regular guest. The emperor pays, please join Master Gao. ”

This will already be a meal, and even if you want to leave, you will have to eat first.

Yongzheng nodded.

Gao Qizhuo originally wanted to go to "clear the field", but seeing that the master had already entered, it was not good to delay any longer.

They asked for a private room, and Yongzheng took the menu and glanced at it, there were three big words on it.

- Tianxiang Building.

Chi Xia also saw it, and was a little speechless for a moment.

There is a feeling that the road is narrow.

There was no signboard at the gate, and she didn't expect this to be the famous Tianxiang Building.

Gao Qizhuo introduced: "Your Majesty, this is the Tianxianglou personally in charge of the Cao family's girl, and their signature dishes here are Snow Mountain Rank Cui, Tongue Lotus, and Crab Stuffed Orange, Crab Roe Soup Bun." However, Miss Cao is also in the weaving bureau today, and the dishes may not be as good as usual. ”

It's been out for most of the day, and the group is hungry.

Yongzheng nodded directly: "Since it is a feature, it is all on it." ”

Nian Qianyao also followed: "What kind of great dish can only be made by one person?" The skills of the chefs are not all the same. ”

Although he couldn't get used to seeing Chi Xia love to be in the limelight, he couldn't get used to Cao Meng's high-minded and pitiful fake appearance. Coupled with Chi Xia's words last night, he sounded quite reasonable!

Waiting for the food to be served, Chi Xia looked downstairs.

I saw Cao Meng and Cao Hao also come in.

After the shopkeeper said a few words, Cao Meng went upstairs.

Chi Xia sighed helplessly, and heard her shouting outside, "The courtiers ask to see the emperor." ”

After they entered the private room upstairs, Gao Qizhuo's people still cleared the upstairs through the motions.

Yongzheng didn't want to deal with it.

But Cao Meng knelt at the door: "The courtiers know that they have trespassed, and they ask the emperor for forgiveness, but the courtiers have something to say, and the emperor is unfair to the Cao family like this." ”

Chi Xia rubbed his ears.

To be honest, if it weren't for Cao Meng's low-level eye medicine just now, she would have even been a little tempted to keep her because her cooking was so delicious.

If you don't enter the harem, you can be a female official in charge of meals!

But Yongzheng obviously dislikes the Cao family very much.

Chi Xia poured him a cup of tea.

Gao Qizhuo looked at her this time: "The minister went to send her." ”

But this is someone's restaurant, even if she is sent away, it is inevitable that someone else will help spread the word.

Yongzheng simply asked him to bring Cao Meng in.

Cao Meng knelt down as soon as he entered the room, tears in his eyes, and he couldn't fall: "Your Majesty, my father moved his family to Jiangning because of the words of the first emperor, and he has worked hard for so many years without the slightest negligence. ”

"Even if he owes the treasury a little silver taels, the emperor also knows that it is because his father received the first emperor on several southern tours. My father was loyal and patriotic all his life, and he couldn't get up a few days ago, and he heard that the emperor also toured south to Jiangning, and he was still thinking about coming to kowtow to the emperor and repair the garden for you. ”

Chi Xia was a little disappointed.

She originally thought that Cao Meng was so thoughtful that she could say one, two, three, four, five, but it turned out to be these few sentences.

That's not interesting.

Sure enough, Yongzheng didn't eat this set at all: "Loyal to the monarch and patriotism is not negligent, that is the duty of a courtier, not to mention that for this duty, Huang Ama has repeatedly added favor to the Cao family, and raised you one by one to the point that you don't know the height of the sky, and you don't know the suffering of the world." ”

"Cao Hao is in his twenties, and Huang Ama has also given the grace to the official himself, and he follows Cao Yin every day to run errands, and he doesn't even know how to use the textile machine for a few years, and I am so ashamed of him!"

"Tell Cao Yin. I don't need you to worry about it, and I don't need you to welcome it, how much of the silver taels he owes to the treasury is because of Huang Aman's southern tour, and how much is because of your Cao family's extravagance, let him calculate it himself. Tell me about it. ”

Yongzheng squinted his eyes: "Your Tianxianglou is famous in the south of the Yangtze River, I heard that this tongue is a lotus, only take the tip of the duck tongue and a little bud of the lotus heart to fry." Presumably, there are countless dishes as delicate as Orifu. No wonder hundreds of thousands of taels, in the eyes of Miss Cao, are just "some" silver taels. ”

Cao Meng's crying pear blossoms brought rain, and he said it sincerely, originally thinking that he could ask for a little affection.

In fact, if Kangxi is here, this money may be exempted with a wave of his hand, and the Cao family should be hereditary and hereditary in the "post" of Jiangning weaving.

If it was Kangxi's other elder brother, he might also take into account his father's feelings and open up the net.

But she met Yongzheng.

In his case, failing to do an errand is a first-class fault. It is impossible for affection to replace talent, let alone silver.

Besides, only the "affection" he admits is "affection".

No matter how beautiful it is, it can only be sprayed without complete skin.
