Chapter 15: Keep it simple
Making friends with strangers in the upper class, gifting is more expensive, and you can show your respect.
Between friends, between lovers, gifts are important with heart, and do not care how valuable they are.
Shen Sanwen didn't have a precious and historically significant stone to please the princess, so he could only change his emotional route and express his heart.
For Princess Taiping, Shen Sanwen had a very good impression, it is impossible for a normal man to hate a beautiful woman for no reason. It's not love at first sight, but it's inevitable that there will be some temptation, appearance, temperament, Princess Taiping is very online. Shen Sanwen is a sane person, so he wants to get to know the princess, really know the princess, and confirm whether the princess is her suitable other half. If so, regardless of whether history is changed or not, pursue her, and if you can be friends, Shen Sanwen will also try her best to help her avoid the end of history.
made up his mind, if he couldn't be a lover, he would be a confidant. If the princess is not a good person, she will stay away and hug Di Renjie's thigh early.
After all, self-preservation is the most important thing, love yourself first, then you have the ability to love others, and only then can you be worthy of others' love.
Although Shen Sanwen has done a lot of correct analysis, these analyses are based on his familiarity with the history of Princess Taiping, not a real understanding.
The first impression he made on her was obviously not good.
If Shen Sanwen knew that Di Renjie's judgment of him had already reached the hands of Princess Taiping, I am afraid that he would not be so cautious. Talented people who can create value for the royal family will be the target of Li Tang's wooing, but their eyes are thin, and the princess is not in her eyes. No one in the whole world dared to move a finger of her, her eyes, it's okay.
Shen Sanwen didn't have a clue about what to give, he only knew that he wanted to send something that could represent his heart.
Sending flowers? I'm afraid this trick has been played badly a long time ago, even if it is beautiful for a few minutes, it can't leave a good impression.
Delicacies? What you buy on the street may not be as delicious as what you make in the imperial kitchen. You may be able to do something good by yourself, but it's not suitable, the gentleman is far away from cooking, cooking will be looked down upon, you can do it if you are intimate, but now you definitely can't.
Ragdolls? The princess doesn't look like a little girl who likes dolls.
After careful consideration, Shen Sanwen felt that there was something wrong with his thinking, and it didn't matter what he sent, it was even more important to understand her thoughts.
There will never be appreciation for no reason, and it is impossible for a princess to be friends with herself for no reason.
Need to understand the needs of the princess.
What kind of friends does the princess need?
The status gap is too big, and I can't understand each other with the princess, and I don't care about loving and being loved. But if you want to survive better in Datang, Princess Taiping is the most suitable object to rely on, a big tree that will not fall for decades.
Love is more about the projection of emotions on another person, such as the person you love has the courage and ability to do things you can't do, or in him you can see a better tomorrow. In the process of continuous communication and familiarization, I paid more and more, and became more and more accustomed to it, until I was no longer willing to quit.
So, what exactly does Princess Taiping need?
Wealth, while important, is not attractive to a person in power. Princess Taiping only needs to stabilize her power now, and she does not have a particularly big desire for material things. As for consolidating power, there is nothing you can do about it. Emotionally, she is not missing. Father's love and mother's love are the same, although they are a little different from ordinary people, but there will be no difference in terms of the nature of family affection. Other things that can please her will do their best to make her smile if they have the opportunity, and sending poems and praises are necessary, but they don't have too good a role.
There is no fluke and no shortcuts.
Perhaps, you can learn about Xue Shao's reanalysis.
After cleaning up himself, Shen San asked and went out. While walking towards the princess's mansion, I walked around the street.
It was April, and the weather should have been a little hot, but today there was a light breeze and it was cooler. Many hawkers saw the business opportunity and started selling kites.
Kites, invented by Han Xin in the Han Dynasty, were originally used as military signals, and were called paper kites for a long time, and later gradually became a folk activity in the Sui and Tang dynasties, and were loved by people.
There are all kinds of kites, but the colors are very simple, there is no coloring, they are all the original colors of the paper. For a long time, people will write on the kite as a means of transmitting military information, and now it is popular to inscribe poems on the kite to express their joy or sadness feelings, and the black and white characters are indeed much more conspicuous. The more important reason is that the process of paper dyeing and dyes are not cheap, so no one sells colorful kites.
I chose a swallow kite that is close to the current standard style, and bought some snacks, and the gift is settled.
Thinking too complicated often carries huge expectations, and there is no expected result, but it will be hit, it is better to be simpler, as an ordinary meeting of ordinary friends.
None of the people entered the door, the appointed time had not arrived, and the people were not together, waiting for each other, intending to go in together. There are only four people horizontally and vertically, and there is no question of how long to wait.
Actually, it's five people.
Shen San asked if he shouldn't come in the afternoon, the ordinary visit must be early, and the people who arrived in the afternoon were all people who might become colts. But Wang Bin didn't say anything, and silently made an appointment with him for an hour.
Coming together provided a great opportunity for comparison gifts.
Wang Bin bore the brunt.
After all, a big carriage stood in front of the door.
Wang Bin came the earliest, but he didn't mean to enter the door at all, and he had been patiently waiting for a few other people, giving a big gift was to give the princess pomp and face, and it must not be sent quietly, but in front of everyone.
Shen Sanwen came, everyone was surprised, and Shen Sanwen was very confused.
"Shouldn't I come?"
Wang Bin didn't explain, and Shen Sanwen felt that something was wrong.
Quietly pull away Wang Bin, why are you three of you! Why do you look at me wrongly!
He wasn't the last to arrive.
Wang Bin smiled happily and said loudly, "There should have been four of them, but I had a little stage fright, so I specially asked Brother Shen to accompany me." ”
Shen Sanwen immediately understood, and glared at Wang Bin.
Pig teammates!
There is no taste of three hundred taels of silver here.
At this time, it seems to be a silent accusation why didn't you call me over? Come here with a taste of pursuit! Even if I really want to pursue the princess, I can't squeeze it at this time! And it has been proven by modern pick-up science, and more importantly, once a woman realizes that a man is close to her to pursue her own goals, her defensive heart and vision of people may have more than doubled, isn't this a pit for me!
But I can't leave now, if I don't come to see you today, the threshold of the princess's mansion will be higher again in the future.
If you go in, you might find a way to live.
When the people arrived, they were invited into the courtyard.
At about the end of the day, Princess Taiping was already waiting in the hall.
Empress Wu had already delivered Di Renjie's comments.
The princess did notice such a person surnamed Shen.
In the morning, the foyer was endless, but there was no person named Shen Sanwen, who didn't even come to see him? The first people who came in the morning were better, and the princess also met once, and when she was tired later, she directly let her subordinates send them away. However, the princess specially instructed that if it was a talented person who came, he should see it.
As a result, this short-sighted person actually came in the afternoon.
