Chapter 47: The Imperial City Zhenguowei -47
"I just lost my respect! Please Mr. Wu Nai, Haihan. After John and Edward had a "small meeting", he walked back to Wu Nai.
Wu Nai noticed that Edward had just pulled his hand out of his bag. It seems that the two guys divided the money quite smoothly.
Wu Nai smiled and said, "Don't worry, by the way, there is one more thing I need to tell the two of you." ”
John hurriedly asked, "What else is going on?"
Wu Nai pointed at Edward and said, "Because Mr. Edward has been attacked, His Majesty the Emperor is going to make some special arrangements for him. ”
Edward and John exchanged a look, and then asked Wu Nai together, "What special arrangement?"
Wu Nai replied: "His Majesty the Emperor asked me to take Mr. Edward out of the city for a special visit, and asked me to accompany Mr. Edward to relax and relax, so as to comfort him for the injury he suffered yesterday." Of course, everything is covered by us. ”
Edward laughed heartily: "Hahahahaha! Great! Please let me express my sincere respect to Emperor Daxuan!"
When the Diuman envoys entered the city, they witnessed the prosperity of the streets and alleys of Taijing. They are attracted by the hotels where they can smell the fragrance from afar, the beautiful girls singing beautiful songs under the beautiful musical instruments in the attics, and the variety of exotic goods on the streets.
In fact, the envoys have long wanted to go out to see and see. However, His Majesty the Emperor of Daxuan feasted them in the palace every day, resulting in them being able to squat in the palace all the time.
Now that the opportunity had come, it was not surprising that Edward was very happy, he had almost forgotten the unhappiness of being attacked last night, and just looked forward to the trip outside the city with an excited face.
After hearing this, John asked very puzzledly, "Edward is the only one?" Mr. Wu, do you know, I am the main envoy." ”
Wu Nai patted John's shoulder and teased John with a regretful expression: "No way, who told you that you weren't beaten last night?"
John looked puzzled after hearing this, is it wrong to say that he is not beaten?
In this way, Edward happily set off to the city with Wu Nai. Riding the royal horse brought from the palace, Edward looked very excited: "Mr. Wu Nai! I can finally go out of the city to see! Hahaha! That guy John! Now he must be envious of me!"
Wu Nai replied: "Mr. Edward, I believe that it is not only Mr. John who envy you, but the people of your envoys are probably regretting it now, why didn't you pick up the bricks yesterday and give yourself a look." ”
Edward laughed again, and in this way, in a pleasant conversation, the two soon came to the most prosperous place in Taijing-Peony Street.
"Oh my God, is this the heaven that the Lord depicted as depicted?" Edward marveled at the prosperity and beauty of the city.
The two rode to the head of the huge canal bridge, and the Peony Bridge at their feet was the highest point of a six-story minaret in order to allow the high-rise ships to pass through.
Countless boats pass back and forth in an orderly manner in the wide canal, and the streets on both sides of the canal are neatly planted with peach blossom trees.
Now is the day when the peach blossoms are in full bloom, and the pink petals are flying around in the air, decorating Peony Street like a fairyland on earth.
This trade-oriented street is filled with a variety of shops, and people can find almost all the world's goods here, so the Peony neighborhood is never deserted.
Passers-by on the street filled Peony Street to the brim, and it was filled with the sounds of selling, bargaining, and communication. The lively atmosphere gives the street a lot of energy.
However, this is only a corner of Peony Street, although it is called Peony Street, but with the development of more and more large, it is not too much to call this Peony City now. Because of this, even if Wu Nai and Edward are on the high bridge, they can't have a panoramic view of Peony Street.
Wu Nai looked at Edward, whose eyes were straight, and couldn't help but think of the appearance of his first visit to Taijing, which was almost no different from Edward's current expression. Wu Patience secretly laughed: Hey! I didn't expect your beard to be the same as me!
Wu Nai took Edward around Peony Street, because he had been in Taijing for a long time, so it was no big problem to be a tour guide for Edward.
Seeing the strange things that Diuman didn't have, Edward almost wanted to have a copy when he met, what a small teapot, a small porcelain figure, a silk handkerchief, this guy can use it and can't use it, and basically bought it all over the time.
However, because he had to pay for the souvenirs himself, Edward also had to weigh his own purse, so he had no choice but to order them.
In this way, the two of them were also a little tired from shopping, and Wu Nai said to Edward, who looked tired but very happy: "Mr. Edward, although you have eaten the imperial food of the palace every day during this time, you don't know that the folk food of our Daxuan is no worse than that of the palace. ”
After hearing this, Edward looked curious again, and hurriedly asked, "Oh, is the folk food even better than that of the Great Xuan Palace?"
Wu Nai smiled and returned: "I also ate a lot of meals in the palace." It can only be said that our Emperor His Majesty is more diligent and thrifty, and you haven't tasted many of Daxuan's high-quality luxury delicacies. ”
Edward's face was full of smiles, he knew that since Wu Nai mentioned it, it must not be casually said, so he asked Wu Nai tentatively: "Then Mr. Wu Nai, in the arrangement of His Majesty the Emperor, do we have the opportunity to see the food you mentioned?"
After listening to this, Wu Nai returned: "His Majesty the Emperor has no arrangements. ”
Edward was a little deflated after hearing this: "That's really a pity. ”
Wu patiently sneered: Hmph, everything is said to be arranged by His Majesty the Emperor, so how can you kid get into the trap I set?
So Wu Nai patted his chest and said heroically: "But Mr. Edward, don't worry!
Edward was a little confused, and immediately asked, "Mr. Wu Nai, what do you mean?"
Wu Nai smiled: "Today, I invite you to a banquet in my personal name, and we will go to the first famous store in Taijing, 'Moon Pavilion', so that you can taste the real wine and good food of our Daxuan." ”
Edward hurriedly waved his hand: "Mr. Wu, how embarrassed am I!"
Wu Nai hurriedly grabbed Edward and said enthusiastically: "Eh! Since the last time we met, I have felt that Mr. Edward is a hero! Please give me a chance to express my admiration." ”
Edward's tail was almost lifted to the sky by Wu Nai's enthusiasm and flattery, so he no longer pretended to excuse himself, and simply replied: "Okay! Then I'm welcome!"
"Please!"
Then, the two came to the Moon Pavilion, Wu Nai looked at the signboard and shook his head, he came to this corrupt place again!
Because he saw Wu Nai last time, the boss immediately recognized the uncle of Master Liu's family, and warmly entertained the two to the elegant seat on the second floor.
As the circular corridor went up, the circle upstairs was filled with all kinds of diners, Wu Nai and the others found a good place to sit down, and Edward immediately observed it excitedly.
Edward didn't expect that a place to eat could be so luxurious and expansive. Looking down, you can see a huge stage directly below the hollow, and people dressed in colorful clothes are singing operas that he doesn't understand.
Although he couldn't understand it, Edward could probably guess in his heart that this was definitely not a place that ordinary people could enjoy.
Wu Nai was no more curious than Edward at the moment. He looked cautiously at the man sitting next to him.
A man who was alone here, looking at the back was a man, who was obviously sitting in a quiet seat on the second floor, but he still had a hat on his head. The opera below was constantly applauded, but he ignored it, just sat quietly alone, and the wine and food on the table did not move at all.
Wu patiently thought: This person is not quite right!
