From the host's position, the guest comes to the saluting position and steps forward with one foot first when entering.
On the dining table, how should the chopsticks and bowls be placed, where should the cloth for wiping your mouth be placed, which type of dish should be served first, which direction should the fish head face, and which direction should the chicken head face. The plate should be on the outside, or the bowl should be on the outside circle.
Li Yuanxing stood in the corner, watching and listening silently.
He also said that at the dinner, the dishes were all cold, and they were still discussing where to place the chopsticks first when eating fish.
"I'm tired, welcome the guests!" Li Yuanxing threw this place to Cui Yiye. Li Yuanxing saw Cui Yiye's eyes shining, and he seemed to be very interested in this kind of discussion, and he also wanted to speak.
impulse.
After leaving the living room door, Li Yuanxing looked up at the sky. The sun was about to set.
"Two hours, it's been two hours since I started setting chopsticks!" Li Yuanxing sighed with a smile, beckoned for the soft sedan and got on: "Go back to the back garden!"
In the small flower pavilion at the entrance of the back garden, Cui Yingying was sitting at the top, and Lao Baitou and his wife were sitting outside the pavilion.
"Is there something good?" Li Yuanxing walked in with a smile.
"Your Highness!" Cui Yingying stood up and saluted, then said with a smile: "Bai Erwa is getting married."
"The second baby hasn't gotten married yet. I remember that several matchmakers came to my door last time. Didn't anyone take a fancy to her?" Li Yuanxing felt surprised.
The old man just stood aside and giggled, but his wife said: "In response to your words, Your Highness, Erba said that he has someone in his heart, so the matchmaker pushed him away."
Cui Yingying whispered a few words in Li Yuanxing's ear, and Li Yuanxing nodded slightly.
"Although she is a maid, she is also an innocent girl. Lian Yue followed Lao Lang to Luoyang. Let her try out the affairs of the outer courtyard. If she doesn't understand, please ask for advice. Give me a silver hairpin!" After Li Yuanxing said this, it was not just
Lao Baitou thanked me, and even Cui Yingying also thanked me.
Maid Yinchai, the steward of the outer court, is no longer a maid in Qin Wangzhuang, but is already treated as a top female official.
"Let Shuangxu be responsible for Bai Erwa's marriage. If she doesn't handle it well, Yingying, you can ask again. Zhuangzi will also set a rule for what dowry should go with it."
The old man withdrew with great gratitude.
Back at the house, Cui Yingying personally brought a towel for Li Yuanxing to wipe his face.
Leaning on the soft chair, Li Yuanxing took a long breath. As soon as he picked up the pipe and put it in the tobacco, he saw Wu Zhao rushing in. When he saw Li Yuanxing, he shouted: "I want to eat shaved ice. I want to eat shaved ice."
Want to eat, ice cream!"
"I want to eat the stars in the sky!" Li Yuanxing smiled.
Wu Zhao jumped up and tried to grab Li Yuanxing's pipe. Li Yuanxing laughed even happier.
Cui Yingying didn't understand what ice cream was, but what could make Princess Mingyue so anxious must be a rare delicacy in the world. Cui Yingying's eyes lit up and she stared at Li Yuanxing.
"I'm talking about Yingying. When you first came to Qinwangzhuang, where did you lose that arrogant air? I'm not used to you being so cute." Before Li Yuanxing finished speaking, Cui Yingying acted coquettishly and sat down.
Next to Li Yuanxing: "Your Highness, being your Highness's woman is the greatest pride!"
"Ice cream!" Wu Zhao shouted at Li Yuanxing again.
"Okay, I'll get it for you. But, two questions!" Li Yuanxing held out two fingers.
Wu Zhao snapped his fingers: "The power problem is not a problem. There is no problem at all supporting three ice machines, and the ice machines are not working all the time. We will keep the other issue confidential and promise not to let outsiders know.
!”
After Wu Zhao finished speaking to Li Yuanxing, she approached Cui Yingying with her big shining eyes: "After putting the ice cream in your mouth, you feel that your tongue will melt. But there are too few such delicious foods, so we can't do it ourselves
Before it was made, if someone knew about it, and someone came to ask for it, would we still be able to eat it?"
"Give me a gag order!" Cui Yingying raised her hand and gave Wu Zhao a high-five.
Li Yuanxing slapped his forehead and said to himself, Oh my god. Recently, I feel that my princess is very weird. It seems that she was taught bad things by Wu Zhao.
Li Yuanxing stretched out two fingers again.
Wu Zhao pursed his lips, looking extremely pitiful: "We have to impose conditions again!"
Li Yuanxing ignored Wu Zhao's pretense of pity and shook his finger: "First, you have to go to Yaozhou in person. Do you know what I want? Don't be anxious and don't rush me. I just want a possible result, and of course it can be achieved within a year.
I hope it will be completed, and I can bring the key parts, but the main body still needs Datang to complete."
Wu Zhao was just stunned for a moment before he understood what Li Yuanxing was thinking.
"You mean, thermal power?"
Li Yuanxing nodded: "Isn't it enough now?"
Wu Zhao did not answer immediately, biting his fingers and circling around the room, sometimes clapping his hands, sometimes shaking his head, sometimes looking at the ceiling, sometimes with his hair down in a daze.
Li Changying, who was on duty today, came in with his maid to prepare the table.
Cui Yingying hurried forward to greet him, waved her hands vigorously in front of Li Changying, and then made a silent gesture.
Li Changying nodded and said to the maids: "Please be gentle with your hands and feet, and you are not allowed to speak."
All seven Qin princesses have arrived, but Wu Zhao is still thinking.
In order not to disturb Wu Zhao, Li Changying arranged to leave only three personal maids, while the others went to rest.
"I can't answer you." Wu Zhao still gave Li Yuanxing a negative answer: "I need some information and then help you analyze it. I can go to Yaozhou."
The seven Princess Qin, including Cui Yingying, did not know what happened, nor what Li Yuanxing and Wu Zhao were talking about. In their eyes, sometimes they could understand what His Highness Prince Qin and Princess Mingyue said, but
The content and meaning are completely incomprehensible.
"Well, you go and see the progress of the steam engine first!"
"I want to go too, I like that machine." Li Changying took the initiative and said to Cui Yanyan: "Sister Yanyan, take care of the backyard for me for a few days. I want to go to Yaozhou. I like that steam engine. I want to see it with my own eyes.
Let’s see how it’s made.”
Li Yuanxing didn't care, as long as they weren't in a daze at home, it would be fine.
"Then, for the second thing, please help me come up with an idea!"
"Your Highness, please tell me. We will work together to help His Highness!" Cui Yingying took the initiative to stand up.
After Li Yuanxing thought for a while, he took a deep breath: "I'm thinking about how to marry the twelve golden hairpins!"
The atmosphere in the room solidified instantly. The seven girls looked at each other, but no one spoke. Only Wu Zhao suddenly patted his chair and laughed. When Li Yuanxing was puzzled, Wu Zhao suddenly said: "How about tonight?
Let’s arrange who will accompany His Highness!”
"Nonsense!" Li Yuanxing scolded Wu Zhao.
Wang Yuyan sighed and sat next to Li Yuanxing: "Your Highness, Princess Mingyue is not messing around. We have already discussed it and arranged to sleep with her."
"Why?" Li Yuanxing really didn't understand.
The seven girls looked at each other, and finally it was Wang Yuyan who had to explain.
"Your Highness, I ask you. It is not difficult to marry them. The question is who dares to marry them, who can marry them, and who is worthy of marrying them?" Wang Yuyan asked three questions in a row. Li Yuanxing could not answer any of them and just shook his head.
Wang Yuyan continued: "First of all, nobles with high status dare not take back the twelve golden hairpins with the highest status in Qin Wangzhuang as concubines, because it is related to His Highness's face. In the simplest words, His Highness is
In the King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty, anyone who dares to touch the women around His Highness is going to die. Even if His Highness is willing to marry someone off, General Cheng and others will not be willing to dare to ask for a woman from His Highness. This will make everyone in the Qin Palace
The general has lost face greatly."
Li Yuanxing wanted to say that the king agreed to this.
But then I thought about it, Cheng Motou and his gang will not ask about the truth, they will only care about what they see.
Wang Yuyan saw that Li Yuanxing understood and continued talking.
"The other possibility for them to leave the mansion is to be demoted from the mansion. How miserable will it be for those who are demoted from the mansion? Your Highness, can you bear it?"
Li Yuanxing shook his head, naturally he couldn't bear it.
"Besides, marrying an ordinary person. The golden hairpin maid of Qin Wangzhuang has a status comparable to that of the daughter of an ordinary noble family. What kind of ordinary person is qualified to marry?"
Li Yuanxing didn't understand this time: "Bai Erwa?"
"Your Highness, Bai Erwa is your favorite general. He is just marrying a second-class maid. The golden hairpin maids are the first-class maids among the first-class maids. They wear golden hairpins and match the badge of Prince Qin's palace and walk in the palace.
On Chang'an Avenue, the dandies in Chang'an will avoid them when they see them, not because they are too fierce, but because they have already been branded by you, His Highness the King of Qin."
Wuyuyan said it clearly, and Li Yuanxing understood it clearly.
"Alas..." Li Yuanxing sighed: "It's a waste of their golden years."
"Your Highness made a mistake. If anyone dares to say that serving you is not an honor, I will tear her mouth apart!" Li Changying said angrily, and then added: "I'm not talking about them, I'm talking about other people."
Li Yuanxing smiled helplessly.
Wu Zhao also said at this time: "I will give you a reason. How many secrets have they been exposed to? Do you dare to marry them off? So, you bad guy!" Wu Zhao suddenly took action and kicked Li Yuanxing in the leg.
: "Remember, my ice cream!"
"Ice cream, what is that?" Zheng Xiuyan subconsciously felt that it was something delicious.
Cui Yingying explained: "Princess Mingyue said that it is so delicious that it feels like your whole body will melt when you eat it!"
"Ice cream!" The seven girls were all attracted by this delicious food.
But Li Changying whispered a few words to Qiuxiang.
Qiuxiang's face turned red.
But what's more, it's excitement.
Standing in front of Li Yuanxing, Qiuxiang's face turned red.
He whispered: "Your Highness, Princess Ying has ordered me to take Yuan Chun and Lan Qiu to accompany Your Highness tonight!" (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
