Chapter 383 Dinner(1/2)
Welcoming the empress this time is much grander than last time.
After all, this time, the attack of Daxia was repelled in just over a month, and all the residents of Lancheng were filled with pride and pride. This is our Majesty.
Therefore, when we knew that the Empress had returned to the city, we were eager to see His Majesty today.
From the city gate to Beihong District, there are crowds of people on both sides. Even though the light rain floats in the sky, it cannot stop the enthusiasm of the civilians in Lancheng.
"His Majesty!"
"It's Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty's martial arts fortune is prosperous!"
Various voices came from the crowds on both sides.
The empress's carriage also pulled open the curtain in front of her, allowing people to see the empress in red lying on her side.
Just like when Ren Baqian first met the empress, he lay on the thick fur in it, without a smile, his eyes gently closed, and Hongluan and Qingyuan were with him.
Although it is not the kind of majestic sitting upright, this image also conforms to the public's impression of the empress.
Ren Baqian was following with his horned cow with his eyes down, and he was inevitably pointed at him.
Due to the existence of the radio station, the daily situation in the north can be transmitted to Lancheng, and then through the mouths of the ministers to the mansion and to the ears of many civilians.
Every day, before and after dinner, on the streets and alleys, the entire Lancheng discusses wars in the north.
Many things in the war were also spread.
Therefore, although Ren Baqian is still a novice, many people have heard that this novice also did a lot of things in the war with Daxia. This made many people's eyes change a little when they see him.
At least it is not a flower inserted in the mosaic.
It has almost improved to the kind of flower that is inserted on cow dung.
This progress is gratifying.
Ren Baqian turned his head and looked to the side, and accidentally saw several heads squeezing in front of a push-open window next to him.
They are all his students.
Ren Baqian smiled at them, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.
"I saw us!" The students subconsciously shrank back.
"Du Laoliu, have you finished your homework?"
"What are you afraid of? His Majesty has returned from such a big victory. He must have a banquet in the palace. There are other things to be dealt with. The ghost must not start school so soon, so there is no time to do it." Du Laoliu patted his chest and said in a grand manner, and turned to look at the others:
"Where are you?
"I haven't done it yet..." Several students are the same as Du Laoliu. These days they are fighting in the north. They talk about wars in the tavern every day, communicating with the news they heard from their parents, and they have no intention of doing homework.
Du Laoliu's eyes floated by a person, and he felt a little disappointed.
Although he said it was so easy, even if school started a few days later, he could not finish his homework at home every day.
I'm afraid I'll be shot again.
Among these students, he was the most shot.
Although the wound will heal after applying black mud cream, there are still fresh and tender skin on the skin that is different from before.
He didn't dare to be shirtless now.
After taking off his clothes, his arms and shoulders were covered with white spots as thick as fingers. Those who didn't know thought he had skin disease.
"I did most of it." Finally someone said.
Everyone's eyes were on that person.
"Brother, it depends on you whether you are alive or alive this time." Du Lao Liu hooked his neck and said.
"A bunch of waste!" A little luoli walked down from the upper floor and said with contempt.
"You finished writing?" Everyone's eyes lit up.
"Hmph!" Little luoli proudly raised her head and went downstairs, ignoring everyone's envious eyes.
After leaving the restaurant, her head drooped and went straight to Tong Mansion. After she got back, she was in a mess and started to do her homework with gritted teeth.
...
Ren Baqian went back to Pingleyuan and saw two round and round guys in black and white at a glance, one of whom was lying on the ground, and the other was stomping on it and climbing up the tree.
Almost a year has passed, and the two little guys have grown up a lot.
Ren Baqian walked over, and both little guys looked at him.
Then Ren Baqian dragged the panda below out, and the one above couldn't stand and immediately purred.
Ren Baqian laughed loudly, holding the furry panda and rubbing his face, a familiar smell.
The other one rolled on the ground and ran over and opened his mouth to push him. But he just threw it away and started screaming in grievance.
Ren Baqian rubbed the two pandas and went back to the house to look around. There was no dust. It seemed that someone had been cleaning after he left.
Then he fell on the bed and finally returned home and could finally sleep in the bed.
It's so terrible to travel long distances in this world.
When Ren Baqian was woken up, it was almost dark. He stretched his waist and felt much more comfortable.
"Sir, Your Majesty asks you to attend the dinner later." Shi Hu reported.
"Everyone in the court will go?"
"Yes."
Ren Baqian thought about it and seemed that he only had the forgiveness dress before.
"Your Majesty asked someone to drive out a dress for the adults, and it is probably coming soon." Shi Hu said again.
"I'll take a shower first if I have someone boiled water."
When he finished washing, his dress was also sent.
With his current official position, his dress is purple with beautiful birds and beasts, which looks much better than his original forgiveness color.
The last time he attended the banquet, Ren Baqian was sitting at the end. If it weren't for the empress's concession, he would not be qualified to attend as his identity.
This time the position was closer to the middle, and several Siqing of the Ministry of Works sat together with Fengshu.
Below him are the Ordnance Siqing Fenghou, Tian Muxin Ge Yihong.
Above him are the six ministers of the ministers, who are the elders and young.
Ren Baqian received a lot of attention when he came in, and several people greeted him, all of whom were officials of the Ministry of Works who had dealt with him.
As for the other departments, the Ministry of War was quite kind to him.
Others don’t know what the things Ren Baqian took out play on the front line these days, but the people from the Ministry of War were clear. And the militia ideas he proposed also satisfy the people from the Ministry of War, so when they saw Ren Baqian, they released their kindness.
For example, smiling at him!
If you don't know, you think they are going to beat them up.
"Sir Ren, thank you for your hard work." As soon as Ren Baqian sat down, Feng Hu came in and sat beside him and smiled.
"Serve the people!" Ren Baqian was very polite.
Wind Throat:...
What the hell is this?
"How is the blast furnace?" Ren Baqian asked instead.
"It's still under construction. The rain has been quite heavy these days, and the speed has been much slower." Fenghu said.
The rainy season here in Lancheng came earlier, and these days it was rainy and rainy, and even the speed of firing cement slowed down a lot. Therefore, until Ren Baqian came back, the progress of the blast furnace was only halfway.
Nowadays, hydraulic hammer forging has been made, which is much easier and the speed of building weapons is much faster.
But half of the blast furnace was built, but now the iron material can't keep up.
Ren Baqian and Fenghou chatted for a few words, and then six ministers came in one after another.
Then came Dazhi Lao and Erzhi Lao.
After everyone sat down, the empress walked into the hall.
"We welcome Your Majesty and congratulate Your Majesty on his return in triumphant!" Everyone stood up and bowed.
"Sit all." The empress said lightly, sat down at the top of the head, and said again: "I won't talk about state affairs today, just to celebrate, everyone drinks and dances!"
As the empress finished speaking, six strong men and six women came in from outside the hall. The man was wearing leather shorts, while the woman had a strapless bra and a leather skirt.
With the fast-paced drum sound, the twelve people began to dance a primitive dance in the hall. Many movements were like hunting, and the powerful "drink! Ha!" sound was full of wildness.
Then the sound of the zodiac also sounded, adding a touch of desolation behind the wildness, as if he was in an endless wilderness.
"This is a celebratory dance. In the past, if you hunt a lot or defeat the enemy, you would dance this kind of dance." Feng Hu whispered, knowing that Ren Baqian didn't understand this.
Ren Baqian nodded. This primitive dance is quite interesting and full of vitality.
