"Master Wang, is there anything else?" Rong Xia seemed not to notice the embarrassment on the official's face, and said very naturally, "If nothing is wrong, I will leave first."
"Sir, please go slowly," the official from the Ministry of Civil Affairs secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Shangfeng is not a weird and vindictive person, otherwise his voice today would have offended people. He is a big man, but he has nothing to do to pay attention to Shangfeng's fiancée. It's really embarrassing to say this kind of thing...
Actually, we can’t blame him, but we can only blame Princess Fule for being too good-looking. This is like a swan falling into a flock of chickens. As long as you are not blind, you can spot the swan.
What's more, when Princess Ban goes out, she is always accompanied by personal guards and rides on a white horse. This has almost become Princess Ban's trademark.
It is said that the personal guards around Princess Ban were all personally selected for her by the old prince. She had not learned poetry and poetry well since she was a child. Instead, she was good at riding, shooting, and boxing. He believes that he is good at riding and shooting, but as for his physical skills...
Master Wang shook his head silently in his heart. With such a delicate appearance, it doesn’t look like he is very powerful. I am afraid that he can do some tricks and embroider his legs, and the guards around him deliberately flattered him, so he became the so-called heroine among women. .
But a beautiful woman, even if she is just putting on a show, she will have countless people supporting her, and it is a given.
Banhua and Tu Aqi are separated by each other's guards. The two sides maintain an international friendly standard distance. They will neither treat others indifferently nor appear too close. There are two of them, one is Princess Daye and the other is a foreign prince, so they cannot skip the rules that should be followed.
Banhua saw that this foreign prince was not really interested in Daye culture, and would also ask about some customs from time to time. She answered with a smile, until the prince started to ask her about poems, songs, celebrities and elegant scholars, Banhua directly Said: "Prince, you may have some misunderstandings about our Daye. Not all Daye people like poems, songs, and philosophy of life. Some of us Daye people love poetry, some love to march troops, and some are interested in people's livelihood and agriculture. If you ask a person who is not interested in poetry questions about poetry, he will not be able to answer your questions."
Tu Aqi was dumbfounded for a long time before he understood what Banhua meant. He scratched his head and said, "Isn't it true that literature is the most important thing in great undertakings, followed by martial arts?"
"Of course not. My Majesty Daye is a great emperor who is civilized, Taoist and military. He not only values culture, but also values the training of generals. His Highness the Prince has just come to Daye not long ago and does not have a thorough understanding of Daye. It is also appropriate to have such a misunderstanding. Yes." Banhua smiled and said, "My ancestors were all military commanders, but Your Majesty treated our family very kindly."
Actually, Tu Aqi is right. The great cause is increasingly focused on literature. Even if civil servants and generals are of the same rank, they will be half a head shorter in front of the civil servants. Although literati still learn the six arts, many of them are just going through the motions, which has already violated the earlier requirement that a gentleman should be "both civil and military".
The generals guard the borders, suffer from cold and cold, and risk their lives to guard the country, but in the eyes of civilian officials, this is all a matter of course. It's what you should do well, but if anything goes unsatisfactory, there will be a lot of verbal and written criticism and quarrels in the court.
Her grandfather once told her that the pen is an invisible killing knife. If the civil servants in the court are targeting you, even if you shed your blood, you may become a collaborator and traitor in the end.
Many generals on the frontier now, in order to prevent themselves from getting into unnecessary trouble, send people to the capital every year to deliver gifts and ask some civil servants to say a few nice words in front of His Majesty, otherwise the military pay will not be paid, and the soldiers below will You have to starve and freeze.
Most generals feel sorry for the soldiers they single-handedly led. If they want their soldiers to live a better life, they can only give gifts to please the civil servants in the capital.
What kind of integrity and what kind of backbone, at a time when the status of military attaches is getting worse day by day, they have been bent long ago and are gone.
Although these are facts, Banhua would never admit these things in front of a foreigner. She changed the topic and talked about the weapons of Ai Po.
"Princess, the knife you mentioned is indeed a knife commonly used by our Aipo people. However, because this knife is too heavy, we have now learned your country's smelting method and forged a sharper one. Blade. Nowadays, only civilians still use this kind of knife. Nobles like to use this kind of knife from your country." Tu Aqi did not wear a sharp blade, but the two guards he brought did. But as he said Although the scabbards of these two guard sabers were printed with patterns representing the Aipo culture, they were already very close to the sabers used by Daye.
Ban Hua smiled and said: "The knives of your country are also very unique."
Tu Aqi smiled innocently, showing his bright white teeth.
Ban Hua's teeth were so dazzling that she couldn't help but turn her head and look to the side, and saw Rong Xia's figure. Why was he here?
"Princess," Rong Xia walked up to Banhua and saluted Tu Aqi, "Your Highness."
"Master Rong." Tu Aqi returned the greeting. He knew about Rong Xia because his civil servants told him that Master Rong was a close official of the emperor and one of the top figures on the list of people who should not be offended.
Rong Xia smiled politely at Tu Aqi, rode a horse and walked side by side with Banhua, and said to Banhua: "Wherever you are going, I will accompany you."
"Are you very busy recently?" Banhua thought about it carefully. It seemed that she hadn't seen Rong Xian for several days. Although he sent things here from time to time, he was very busy. There is no shadow.
"One thing is that when I first arrived in the Ministry of Personnel, there were many things that I still couldn't put my hands on." He was an old fox in the Ministry of Personnel. He took the position of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel at a young age. I don't know how many people were dissatisfied. Secretly disobeying his orders. However, he didn't want to mention these matters to Ban Hua. He just wrote lightly, "The matter has been resolved. I will have more time to spend with you in the future."
Ban Hua leaned her head towards Rong Xia and whispered, "Is there someone jealous of you?"
Rong Xia was stunned for a moment, chuckled, and nodded slowly under Ban Hua's puzzled gaze.
"I know that there are some old men with average abilities and high ambitions. It's strange that they would be happy to see such a young, good-looking and talented young man like you stepping on their heads," Banhua clicked his tongue, " When dealing with this kind of person, you don’t need to give too much face, otherwise you will get slapped on the nose. Find an opportunity to catch his mistakes, punish him severely, and give him a sweet date, and he will naturally become honest in the future.
My grandfather once told him that sometimes in the military camp, he would encounter some arrogant and arrogant people. He just needed to give him a good lesson. After he showed his abilities, he would find an opportunity to give him a small lesson. With a little face, he will not only be honest, but also be grateful.
According to my grandfather's rough words, this is a shameful thing. I just need to clean it up a few times.
Of course, the premise is that you have the ability to clean it up.
At this point, she has never doubted Rong Xia.
This is a bit crude, but it is correct in principle. Rong Xia did use this method to deal with two people. Now seeing that Banhua was focused on helping her with ideas, Rong Xia nodded in agreement with a very good mood, with a somewhat troubled look on her face, and talked to Banhua about a few more things.
Who said he has a hairless mouth and is weak in his work?
"He has a lot of hair on his mouth, and I haven't seen him see many real things. He has a long beard and short knowledge. Don't pay attention to this kind of person. Next time you meet his son, I will help you deal with him."
Who deliberately blocked his order and pretended not to know.
"This kind of person just needs to be dealt with. It would be better if we deal with him a few more times. His son still wants us to take him to play with him. If his father is so ignorant, then we won't take him to play with him." They also have a group of playboys. Standard, not everyone is qualified to play with them.
Listening to Banhua talking about how to help him vent his anger, the smile on Rong Xia's face became more and more obvious. When Banhua looked over, he suppressed the smile on his face: "Thank you, Huahua."
"Why are you being polite to me?" Ban Hua looked at Rong Xia doubtfully, "You are a member of our Ban family. Who can see one of our own being wronged?"
My own people?
Rong Xia looked at Banhua blankly, with the corners of her mouth raised without realizing it.
Another member of the Ban family, Ban Huai, was shopping in a shop. He decided to buy whatever he liked, especially things for girls. He decided on whatever he liked.
"My lord, are you buying these for the princess?" The shopkeeper was familiar with Ban Huai, so he boldly teased her. If it were other nobles, he would not dare to speak, but although the Duke of the country is a dandy, he is a very reasonable dandy, so he will not be angry because of his joke.
Who in the capital now doesn’t know that the daughter of the Duke of Guo is engaged to Uncle Cheng An. It is said that this uncle is extremely handsome, has a title, and is highly appreciated by Long Live. He is indeed a good son-in-law.
"Alas," Ban Huai sighed, picking up a plate of pre-packaged noodle dishes. "No matter how much I buy, I worry that she won't have enough for the girl's belongings."
"It's because you love the princess so much that you feel that no matter how much you give her, it's not enough," the shopkeeper said. "For families like ours, it's already very generous to give our daughter a set of sterling silver jewelry as a dowry."
In his opinion, Princess Fule has a title, an estate, and a good marriage. Logically, the Duke should be happy. Why is he still looking so gloomy?
Ban Huai knew that these people could not understand his feelings, so he nodded a few sets of headscarves, "Just use this material, but the pattern must be unique. If others have used it, don't use it."
"Okay," the shopkeeper jotted it down happily. Seeing that Ban Huai was in a bad mood, he sent him to the door and then turned to the waiter behind him and said, "Rich families are different. They raise more daughters than sons. Return the gold."
Ban Huai was riding his horse slowly. When he was lost in thought, he saw his daughter not far away. He immediately pulled the reins and the horse turned around and ran over.
The horse had just turned around and walked two steps away when he suddenly heard a clang and a huge earthenware flowerpot fell down, exactly where Ban Huai was about to pass by just now. If Ban Huai hadn't turned around just now and just passed by like this, this flowerpot would have hit him on the head.
The expressions of the guards around Ban Huai suddenly changed. They drew their sabers and surrounded the building.
