Chapter 468 Royal Night Banquet (Second)

"Mr. Song Nan, the lower official, see Prince Qingding." Song Nan bent down to greet the young prince in front of Princess Ping'an.

King Qing has a purple gold crown on his head, and the brocade robe on his body is also luxurious, but he can obviously feel that there is a mental problem, because the faces of mentally retarded people are always similar, and their ears, eyes, nose and mouth seem to be gathered together, which is very uncoordinated.

"Who are you?" Song Nan's humble attitude seemed to interest King Qing.

"Soong Nan, I'm from the capital." Song Nan smiled.

"Beijing... What is the capital?" King Qing asked curiously.

"The capital is where the emperor lives, and many people live there." Song Nan could not explain the definition of the capital in detail, so he could only answer in a children's tone.

"Your Majesty? Who is the emperor? King Qing asked with confused little eyes.

Everyone couldn't laugh or cry. Zhu Xiao, the king of Anhua, shouted coldly, "Don't talk nonsense. Why don't you take the prince down?"

Princess Ping'an glanced at Song Nan and lowered her head and whispered, "I'm happy to leave according to my uncle's order. Brother, go back with your sister.

Zhu Taiyu, the king of Qingding, was scared to flatten his mouth by Zhu Yu's scolding. Hearing the words, he hurriedly took the hand of Princess Ping'an and wanted to escape. Song Nan bowed and saluted and said, "Congratulations to Prince Qing."

Zhu Taiyu didn't know anything about etiquette. He kept pulling Princess Ping'an's hand back. Princess Ping'an whispered, "I'm sorry, Lord Song, prince... The prince is still young and rude."

Song Nan bowed and did not answer. After watching Princess Ping's and Little Prince disappear from the curtain surrounded by several maidservants, Zhu Xiaoqi's cold voice came to her ear: "Lord Song, you have also seen King Qing. Can you enjoy your face to enter the table this time? This large group of people are hungry, and the food is cold.

Song Nan turned around and smiled, "Sorry, thank you for your success. After returning to the capital this time, I can make an order with the emperor, otherwise the emperor will blame me for my poor etiquette. In order to apologize for delaying your meal, how about I punish myself three cups first?"

Zhu Xiaoqi turned pale and said with a smile, "That's right. Come on, pour the cold dishes and order the kitchen to cook the hot dishes again. Come on, Lord Song, let's enter the table and start."

The banquet restarted, and Song Nan quickly perfectly integrated into the banquet. In addition to the intertwined arrangement, he also followed the officials at the banquet's enthusiastic gossip about official anecdotes and secrets, saying some vulgar yellow jokes to help the fun, and soon became a scene.

Zhu Xiaoqi also seemed to forget his unhappiness just now. He drank wine with Song Nan, and the cheerful laughter filled the house. It was not like a person he had just met, but like a close friend who had been reunited after a long separation.

At the end of the banquet, the guests drank smoked. Several people at the banquet were staring at the banquet, but King Anhua pulled Song Nan to the wooden chair next to the fireplace and said, "Lord Song, how about sitting over there and drinking tea and drinking? I have a lot of good tea here. Does Lord Song like to drink Biluochun or Maojian melon slices?

Song Nan smiled and said, "The subordinates don't pay much attention to the tea ceremony. The prince's good tea is better for entertaining distinguished guests. It's better for me to drink it: cow chews peony flowers."

Ang Huawang laughed and said, "Lord Song is so funny. Aren't you a distinguished guest? Lord Song is not a distinguished guest. Who can call him a distinguished guest? Ordinary people don't have that face when they want to drink my good tea.

Song Nan smiled and said, "If the prince carries his love, it's better to obey than to honor the subordinate."

Ang Huawang nodded, pulled Song Nan up and walked to the fireplace. The two were together, and several noisy people on the table suddenly stopped. Seven or eight guests got up and came over to say goodbye. Zhu Yu only waved his hand and let them go.

The servants quickly cleaned up the mess of the banquet and retreated. There were only a few people left in such a large mindful hall. Song Nan stared around. In addition to Wang Yong and Wan Zhi sitting aside, the remaining guests were Sun Jingwen and two other professors of Wei, Meng Bin and Shi Lian; obviously these three must be The regular guests of the royal palace, or the staff of the royal palace, were not the housekeeper but Sun Jingwen to welcome the guests when they entered the royal palace, so they could see that they were the confidants of the king of Anhua. However, An Weixue did not know when to leave, which made Song Nan understand the relationship between An Weixue and the prince for a moment.

On the fragrant tea, the green and lovely tea leaves float in the Tianqing porcelain cup, just like Song Nan is a little nervous. As the old saying goes, people must ask for something under the ceremony. Obviously, the king of Anhua is so attentive to himself.

"How about tea?" Zhu Wei saw Song Nan drinking a sip of tea and asked with a smile.

"It's fragrant and delicious, and the mouth is sweet. It's really a pleasure to drink good tea after drinking." Song Nan smiled.

"Ha ha, do you know why the entrance is sweet? That's because of the difference in water quality.

"Oh? What kind of water does the prince use? Song Nan actually doesn't want to talk about tea with Anhua Wang at all, but these are all cross-talks, just like * before entering Hong Kong, just to pave the way for the upcoming topic. Song Nan didn't like these official faces, but now she has been used to it.

Do you know that it is the ice water melted by the thousand-year-old snow at the highest peak of Helan Mountain? I have a special snow picking team of 50 people. I go back and forth every month to get more than a dozen snow bricks. After melting, I get a bucket of water. I can use this kind of snow water for drinking tea. In comparison, this cup of tea is as valuable as tea. Zhu Xiaoqi's eyes were bright and he smiled.

Song Nan did not hide his surprise and did not mind letting Zhu Yufu satisfy his vanity, because Song Nan fully understood how difficult it would be to get the snow water on the top of Helan Mountain. 50 people picked back buried snow from the top of the mountain, that is, climbing and transporting it is a big problem. Maybe some people will even in the process. Pay the price of life.

Power and wealth will bring everything, which is the rule of the world. Even the unreasonable demands will be met.

Zhu Huanqi is very satisfied with Song Nan's reaction. He has already investigated Song Nan's back. Jing, this person made his fortune from Weizhou and was born in the reckless and poor people. Although he was able to enter the house by some luck and means, I'm afraid this person has never seen what is a great wealth and what a real noble family is. Zhu Nan didn't pay attention to all this alone by coaxing the emperor who only knew how to eat, drink and play in the palace. Even if Song Nan was in an important position and became famous throughout the Ming Dynasty, Song Nan was still nothing in Zhu Xiao's eyes.

It was only because of the particularity of Song Nan's identity that he suddenly appeared in Ningxia Town, which made Zhu Wei feel a little bad. The methods of Jinyiwei are pervasive, as evidenced by several secret agents dug up in his royal palace more than 20 days ago. Zhu Wei has reason to believe, and at the same time, he is also a little guilty. He believes that Song Nan must have smelled some wind here, which is not as simple as coming here to investigate the attack on Yang Yiqing.

Song Nan drank the tea and muttered, "This water can't be wasted, not a drop. Water is much more expensive than tea."

Zhu Xiaoqi looked at Song Nan with a slightly contemptuous smile and said, "Lord Song, please drink it. If you don't have me, I will order someone to carry snow cubes back. If you come to Ningxia Town, how can you make Lord Song live a comfortable life?"

Song Nan arched his hand and thanked him, "The prince is really flattered by the subordinate. As soon as the subordinate came, the prince ordered someone to arrange a residence for the subordinate, and he was also equipped with a servant to serve. The subordinate is very grateful."

Zhumei� waved his hand and said, "What is that? Can Guanxue Tower still live there?"

"Stay, stay, live, much more comfortable than my house in the capital. The prince took me like this. I really don't know what to say. The subordinate can only say that when the prince enters Beijing every day, he must let the subordinates fulfill the friendship of the landlord, otherwise it will be difficult for the subordinate to feel at ease.

"Lord Song is too polite. I will go to the capital, and then I will disturb Lord Song. In fact, I planned to invite Lord Song at noon today, but I couldn't get out of the vulgar affairs, so I asked the governor to receive Lord Song and his party. Lord Song is also hardworking. At the time of the New Year, Lord Song has no time to spend the festival with his family. In terms of official diligence, how many officials in the Ming Dynasty can compare with him? I'm afraid this is also the reason why Lord Song can be prominent at a young age. The reason why our Ming Dynasty was prosperous for thousands of generations can only be realized with the loyalty and encouragement of ministers like Lord Song.

Song Nan's face turned red and said, "The prince is overreputable, and the subordinate is ashamed. In fact, I have no choice but to come to Ningxia. The emperor has asked several times about the attack of Lord Yang, the three-sided general system. Since the town's governor's government and the general's government can't find the original story, I, Jinyiwei, have to take over. The prince should know that the emperor attached great importance to the rectification of the border town, so he was very indignant at the attack on Lord Yang, the chief system officer of the three sides, and the subordinates had to rush to Ningxia Town to thoroughly investigate the matter.

Zhuzi nodded slightly and said, "So, I have also heard about this matter. I have always ignored things outside the window and lived my own clean life. I am also extremely indignant that such a thing happened in the city. I have also asked about this matter recently, and it is not complicated to think about it. Did Jiang Han's survey result say that the Tata spy sneaked into the city?

Song Nan smiled and said, "The prince is a thousand-mile-eyed. That's what they said."

Zhu Wei said, "I'm in the border town, I'm afraid this is their best excuse, but I don't think so."

Song Nan asked in a ben stunned question, "Does the prince also think this is an excuse?"

"A word 'ye' shows that you, Lord Song, also don't believe it. People with a good eye can see such tricks. I know that if I study their minds, in fact, it will be inseparable from King Qing's mansion."

Song Nan was stunned again and looked at Zhu Xiaoqi's smiling face. I don't know why he said this.
