Chapter 258 Why hasn't the pick-up person come yet?
"Have you ever tried it?"
Li Mo looked at it for a moment, but did not step forward to lift the red cloth.
Li Zhe and Xing Cai were working on things, and he was reassured that there would definitely be no problems.
"Your Majesty, I have tried it...there is no problem."
Xing Cai's eyes were blazing and he couldn't hide his amazement. He said that when he first tried this thing, he and Xing Cai were almost scared to death.
"No problem, that's good! Pull them to the school grounds outside the city first, and then send them to the altar on the day of the celebration!"
Li Mo nodded.
"Yes, my lord!"
"Also...the Ci Kiln can be expanded in scale. This Daqing is also a publicity opportunity for us, Ruyang Ceramics!"
While walking, Li Mo said again.
Although the supply of Ruyang ceramics exceeds the demand, if you want Ruyang ceramics to develop for a long time, it is not enough to let foreign missions know about it in the long run. Ordinary people in foreign countries must also know that Ruyang has extremely exquisite and noble ceramics.
, get one that can be passed down to your family.
Only in this way will Ruyang ceramics not depreciate in value due to the increasing number of products on the market.
After all, Ruyang Ceramics is already the number one profitable business in Ruyang.
"Yes, my lord!"
The two walked and chatted all the way, and gradually drifted apart.
........
Time passes, and another day passes in the blink of an eye,
The next day, as soon as the white fish belly appeared in the east, the city of Ruyang became lively.
No!
It should be said that the excitement has never subsided, but there are more people coming and going. Tomorrow is the founding ceremony of the country, and both those who should come and those who should not come have already arrived in Ruyang.
It is preliminary estimated that there are as many as two million people in Ruyang City, which is not inferior to Chang'an and other big cities.
"Why did so many soldiers go to the inner palace just now? Did something happen?"
"Something happened? What could happen!"
On the street, some people saw some guards in black armor walking in a hurry, and they couldn't help but whisper.
"Then why?"
"You just don't know this, right? Today is the day when His Majesty will confer ministers on the throne, and it is also the only opportunity for ministers to receive people in the palace."
After hearing some speculation, some scribes who knew a little bit about etiquette explained.
"Pick someone up?"
"In order to show the love of the royal family and the status of important ministers, the palace will send special personnel and sedans to various mansions to pick up people, including concubines in the harem! Moreover, the people picked up today are among those who are canonized by His Majesty. If they are not on the list, they will not be eligible to be picked up.
.”
"Oh, that's it! Will you pick up the important people first?"
"Of course, generally speaking, the queen is picked up first, followed by the civil and military ministers, and finally the concubines!"
The scribe said again.
This is a rule left by our ancestors and is not unique to the Dragon Kingdom.
"Wait a minute, if that's the case... the first Guards team to go out of the city to pick up people should be heading towards the Ruyang Embroidery Workshop. Why doesn't it seem like they didn't go to the Embroidery Workshop?"
However, at this moment, some people were confused.
The two teams just passed by and headed straight to the west of the city. Ruyang embroidery workshop is in the east of the city.
"Ah? This..."
The scribe was completely stunned.
When the people said this, he only realized that something was wrong.
"Nothing!"
"That's it, pretending to understand when you don't understand!"
.......
In fact, the scribe was not wrong, the etiquette system is like this.
The lights in the embroidery workshop were not turned off last night, and they were busy up and down. At this moment, Zhou Yurou was already sitting in the cabinet dressed in fine clothes, waiting for the imperial guards to come to pick her up.
Zhou Yuan, Zhou Yuqing and others also had happy faces.
As long as Zhou Yurou enters the palace, her identity will no longer be the master of the embroidery workshop, and all the servants will have to address her as empress instead of madam.
"Third sister...the first imperial guard to pick up people has already left the palace gate. It will take half a stick of incense to arrive at the embroidery workshop."
At this moment, Xu Ning hurriedly ran into the inner hall and said hurriedly.
"Half a stick of incense?"
Zhou Yurou and others were overjoyed, especially Zhou Yuan, who looked even more pleased.
"Like this... prepare more reward money, this is the rule!"
After a pause, Zhou Yuan said again.
"Dad, it's been prepared a long time ago!"
Xu Ning said again.
This time, he was more concerned and anxious than anyone else!
Without it, now only if Zhou Yurou becomes the queen, he can serve as an official in the Dragon Kingdom again. Before, he thought that serving as an official in the Dragon Kingdom would be a bit humiliating, but since seeing the new Ruyang City, he has made up his mind to find him in the Ruyang City.
With an official position and a half-job, this place is much better than Chang'an or Luoyang.
"That's good!"
Zhou Yuan glanced at Zhou Yuqing,
"It only took me half a stick of incense to wait outside the door. It's not a problem to stay in the inner hall all the time. After all, Yurou's identity is different from before."
"Okay, Dad!"
........
After a while,
Zhou Yuan and others arrived outside the embroidery workshop. At this time, there were many people and merchants outside the embroidery workshop watching the excitement.
They also knew that the first person picked up by the palace guards must be the queen, and they all wanted to come over to see this grand scene.
However,
Time passed by minute by minute and it was only half a stick of incense, but the Imperial Guards who were not waiting to pick him up from the embroidery workshop.
"What's going on? It's time to calculate it!"
"that is!"
Some common people and merchants couldn't help but murmured in a low voice, and kept tiptoeing back to look in the direction of the street behind them.
"Yes...it should be here!"
In fact, it was not only the people watching the excitement who were confused, but also Zhou Yuan, Zhou Yuqing and others, but they were not too anxious.
"Maybe something happened on the way. Let's wait and see!"
After calming down, Zhou Yuan thought of this.
One breath...two breaths...and in the blink of an eye, it takes half a stick of incense,
At this time, Zhou Yuan was no longer as calm as before and started to become anxious.
"It shouldn't be! It took just a stick of incense. Why haven't the Imperial Guards arrived yet? For such an important matter, the Imperial Guards shouldn't miss anything on the way."
Standing on tiptoes, Zhou Yuan began to look around.
However, at this moment, someone from far down the street suddenly shouted,
"Everyone, go and see, the Imperial Guard has already received two people entering the palace!"
"What? The Guards have already received the person? How is that possible!"
Wow!
Hearing this, there was an uproar in front of the embroidery workshop.
Zhou Yuan was even more shocked. He immediately rushed out of the crowd and blocked the vendor who was shouting.
"You fart! At this time, the imperial guards should come to the embroidery workshop to pick up the queen. Why did they go to pick up the minister?"
he shouted angrily.
"You old man! I'm telling the truth. Why are you scolding me?"
Being scolded, the vendor raised his eyebrows.
"The truth?"
"Of course, the first group of imperial guards who left the city before the stick of incense rushed directly to the west of the city. Finally, they divided into two groups and stopped in front of the residences of Mr. Zeng and Mr. Dan. At this moment, the two groups of pick-up troops were almost at the palace.
Doorway."
The vendor puffed out his chest.
How can the things that everyone sees in their eyes be fake?
Some people even saw Dan Qiusheng getting into the official sedan with his own eyes.
"this......"
Seeing that the hawker was telling the truth and didn't look like he was lying, Zhou Yuan's heart skipped a beat and he couldn't help but thought to himself,
