The wing room that receives the guests is very luxuriously decorated, but it does not make people feel vulgar and without connotation at all.

Because this room specially set aside for the emperor was restored by the craftsman in proportion to the Ganquan Temple where she lived.

When Gao Fu entered this room with the emperor, at first glance, he thought he had pushed open some magical arbitrary door and returned to the emperor's bedroom from outside the palace.

The landscape paintings and calligraphy hanging on the wall are all masterpieces. The antique vases on the Duobao Pavilion separate the bags and add a sense of mystery to the guests who come in. They are all moved from Qiao Qing’s bedroom. Yes, everything is valuable.

The things are those things, and most people can't tell a good way, but even ordinary civilians can see the exquisite embroidery on the screen and the majestic atmosphere of calligraphy and painting.

No matter what the other party's temperament is, no matter how weird temper, you shouldn't like people who give them offense as soon as they come.

Gu Xiao and the noble master were two different things. Qiao Qing had old enemies with them, so the humiliation was light.

This Yulang had no grievances or grudges against her, and Qiao Qing naturally treated him like Zhang Zong and Wei Han were courteous.

Treating guests with the highest level of courtesy is always a problem.

This restaurant belonging to the emperor is full of diners, but there is a passage dedicated to the guests on the third floor.

Along the way, these people kept a certain distance from Yanyu, protecting him as he came up, and no one pushed him.

Regardless of their status in the palace, everyone treats Yanyu with respect.

Their majesty is an emperor who values ​​talents. Didn't you see that those lowly carpenters and masons were all used by the emperor?

I heard that this person is of great use to the emperor, maybe it will be the next Wei Han or Zhang Zong. No one dares to ruin the good deeds of the emperor at this juncture, and is afraid of offending the noble man who soars into the sky.

Compared with these old people who served the emperor in the palace, the masons couldn't calm down at all. They had never seen such a nobleman, let alone encountered this kind of battle. They originally followed the steward Wang to help surround Yanyu. Jue Di was squeezed out of the small encirclement.

A lot of muscular men with three thick and five thick, following behind like little tails, they all look funny.

The atmosphere became tense inexplicably, but the parties were calm.

When I came out today, I wore a hat that covered my face. Most of my face was covered with a black cloth, but my footsteps were brisk, and I felt quite calm and relaxed, as if I had been used to this kind of scene a long time ago.

People who had long been ordered by the emperor did not dare to underestimate him, because they were afraid of neglecting the distinguished guests, so they put out a lot of energy to entertain the banquet jade.

The person in charge of leading the way knocked three times in front of the door: "My son, Yulang is waiting outside."

"The door is open, please come in."

When he heard the movement, Qiao Qing asked Gao Fu to pull out the latch in the door and waited by the door.

Gao Fuwen said: "My host is waiting inside, and please take off the hat on your head."

Guanshi Wang saw the person, so he hugged the other person's thigh, and then hurriedly brought the person up. If he recognized the wrong person, it would be embarrassing.

Yanyu didn't really like to cover her face, so she took off the hat and the mask on her face.

Gao Fu has been in the palace for many years. He has seen a lot of beauties, especially when he is the emperor's minion.

The rest of the masons who poked their heads to look over were also stunned, breathing in air-conditioning noises one after another.

It took a long time for Li Shijiang, who had spoken with Yanyu to come back to his senses, and exclaimed: "My mother, hey, I see a living god!"

Guanshi Wang had already seen this face and was a little bit mentally prepared, but after a few days, seeing it again, he still received a lot of shock.

Hearing these dull-headed craftsmen look like they have never seen the world before, he found a little sense of reason.

"What a living god, this is Xiaoyu who you said every day that people ruined his appearance."

Is it really Xiaoyu? When wearing a hat and a face mask, it seems that there is no difference between normal days, but it is still so low-key, quiet, and has no sense of existence.

But when the cover was removed, no one could ignore his existence.

Is the fairy-like son in front of him really Xiaoyu who spent a month with them day and night, how did he feel a little floating under his feet.

A stonemason slapped his thigh, and his firm muscles were slammed with a big fan-like palm. The pain was real, real, not dreaming.

The craftsmen have never seen the world, and the image that Yanyu left to them in the old days is too contrasting, and they haven't recovered for a long time.

The others who followed the emperor were stunningly stunning, and soon stood up again with bowed eyebrows, and did not look at such a fairy-like prince.

Everyone is a man, and what she likes is the girl Jiao'e. No matter how good she looks, she can't be a meal. As for the eunuchs in the palace, they are not even men, and they will not give birth to any charming thoughts.

Gao Fu was stunned for a while, and then quickly reacted: "Please go behind the screen, my master has been waiting for you for a long time."

This kind of Tianzi can't be the wrong person.

His tone was much more polite and polite than before, but Yanyu didn't notice much difference.

People who Yanyu doesn't care about can't get into his eyes.

Mo said it was Gao Fu, or the disciples of Tianyi Pavilion sitting face to face with him, and he couldn't see them most of the time.

When Yulang entered, Gao Fu closed the door again, and the rest of the people stayed outside, blocking the hustle and bustle downstairs.

It is early summer, and it has not rained for a few days. The weather is extremely sultry, especially in the restaurant, where there are steaming meals and the guests coming and going, and it is even more hot.

The box was very cool-gold basins were placed in the four corners of the room, filled with ice cubes.

Embroidered on the screen covering the human figure is a picture of the snow on the river. There is a lone boat on the riverside, a lonely weng, and the high pavilion on the distant mountains is covered with white snow.

Looking at this snow scene, I feel much cooler.

The room was burned with extremely light incense, the kind used in the Eastern Palace before, and it has the ingredient to soothe the nerves and help sleep.

The crown prince had a head ailment. In later generations, it would be migraine, especially when he overuses his brain. He often feels painful, so he has been using soothing spice for many years.

Qiao Qing took a milder medicine to regulate the body, but she thought too much. She liked the taste of the spice, so she continued to use it, only reducing the frequency of use.

Qiao Qing got up when he heard Gao Fu's footsteps approaching.

She stood by the window, but the wooden window was lifted up, only covered by a thin curtain made of gauze.

There was sunlight coming in along the gap of the light yarn, just so that Qiao Qing's position could be bathed in some sunlight.

This is naturally Qiao Qing’s meticulous design. The room is dim, and both mood and appearance will look gloomy. In front of talented craftsmen who have no old grievances and have not yet deceived, Qiao Qing has always achieved the skill of pretending to the full level. .

Seeing Yulang's true face, Qiao Qing was stunned for a while after a long absence.

Born in later generations, she was doing entertainment again. Qiao Qing did not rarely see beautiful people, and she also watched a lot of celebrities that are difficult for ordinary people to see.

It stands to reason that Qi Guo is a little old, and combined with the memory of the former prince, she should not be lost by the beauty, but when the other party moves over, the whole face is caught in her eyes, Qiao Qing still breathed.

This Yulang's appearance is really out of her expectation-if this is left in the future, she will find a way to sign this person.

She doesn't need Yanyu's acting skills to be good. The Qiao Group can tailor a fairy script for him, and let someone specialize in that kind of fairy movie, acting as the bodhisattva fairy in the magical drama.

She usually sells peripherals. She has reason to believe that with this face, this person will definitely be the brightest cash cow of the Qiao Group!

It is a pity that she had an accidental car accident, and all the assets she had worked so hard for would be donated in accordance with the will she made earlier. Thinking of her huge foundation in this world, Qiao Qing's expression inevitably brought a two-point sadness.

While Qiao Qing was looking at Yanyu, Yanyu was also looking at the emperor.

He breathed a sigh of relief. The young emperor was so different from his great-grandfather or great-great-great-grandfather.

If Yanyu is a freehand landscape painting, a little ink and wash, there is a kind of erratic and light beauty, and Qiao Qing's face is that kind of rich and colorful beauty.

Empress Tian is a bright and generous appearance, and the emperor is like the birth mother, combined with the advantages of the first emperor, and the beauty is very shocking.

In terms of appearance alone, Qiao Qing is not inferior to Da Qiao, who is famous for his beauty. After all, Empress Tian and Qiao Xuan's mother were both called Chang'an Shuangshu.

This was the best-looking emperor Yanyu had ever seen in his memory, but he didn't care about the appearance of the emperor so much, as long as Qiao Qing and the founding emperor of Qi State did not look alike.

The gaze of the emperor looking at him is not annoying, at first it was surprised, and then turned into disappointment? Why is it disappointed? Yanyu is accustomed to the amazing eyes of others and disappointed in the eyes of the emperor, and can't help but want to look in the mirror and look at his face.

Was he too ugly? He was so sad that he could see that he could go away.

He raised his hand, rubbed his eyes, and continued to look at the face of the emperor, and then found that the face of the other person was like a flower in a mirror, and the moon in the water seemed to be touchable with his hands, but with a light touch, it was nothingness.

The emperor’s birthday is celebrated in the whole world, and Yanyu can easily infer the eight characters of the emperor’s birthday.

Yanyu has lived for many years and learned a lot of things, including Zhouyi and gossip. When he was young and vigorous, he relied on his intelligence and even helped people watch Feng Shui, but that was a long, long time ago. NS.

Today's Yanyu is not easy to fortune, and the secret is not to be revealed. Knowing too much is harmful to people like him.

But facing the young emperor, Yan Yu felt a little curious, and he couldn't help but want to know more about Qiao Qing.

He counted the opponent's life through the emperor's eight characters, and found that he could not calculate anything about the opponent's fate. All he saw was a bunch of golden messy, entangled and indistinct.

Is this a sequelae of his spying on the secret? When Yanyu was in retreat, he faintly felt uneasy, thinking that the turning point of his fate was in Qi, he left Tianyi Pavilion.

The Gua person is not sure about the Gua related to his own fate.

"Yan Lang?"

Qiao Qing's voice awakened Yanyu from the memory, and his eyes moved to the golden toad incense burner in the corner. This incense should be soothing, without any messy ingredients.

He heard that the emperor was in poor health when he was still the prince, and now he still has to burn the spice to calm the nerves day and night.

Qiao Qing returned to his senses, and unconsciously followed Yanyu's line of sight to look at it: "But what's wrong with this incense?"

"nothing."

Yanyu looked at Qiao Qing's face again, and found that the negative emotions on the young emperor's face had receded, and a three-pointed smile appeared on the corners of his eyebrows and eyes.

Yanyu made a judgment in his heart: the hypocritical smile is very annoying.

Qiao Qing followed the topic of conversation: "Yan Lang knows medical skills?"

Yanyu nodded, "I know a little bit, do you need me to show it to you?"

Qiao Qing was about to nod, and after thinking about it, he asked, "Yan Lang thinks he is proficient in equipment?"

Yanyu said: "Understand a little fur."

Qiao Qing:!

Yes, she knew that the ancients were no better than later generations and would not encourage self-expression. Instead, they were subtle and humble. Even if they were proficient, they would only know a little.

The special medicine developed for her by the imperial doctors will cause a disorder of her pulse. Most imperial doctors can't tell her true gender.

But in case, Qiao Qing would not let strangers know his secrets.

Qiao Qing shook his head: "Thank you Yan Lang for your kindness, but I am not happy to touch."

Yan Yu didn't move either. He wasn't the kind of warm-hearted person, and he didn't bother to move, even if he was rejected, he couldn't force it.

Gao Fu came to serve the guests again, but was picked up by Qiao Qing: "Come on."

It is not advisable to blindly lower your body to treat guests, but the emperor who never handles trivial matters treats guests like this, the meaning is quite different.

At least when facing Wei Han or Zhang Zong, when Qiao Qing did a little bit, they looked flattered and grateful.

Qiao Qing glanced at the well-known Yan Lang, the other party obviously had no feeling in this respect.

Is this man too nervous? He was still too arrogant. According to Guanshi Wang, Yanyu grew up in the countryside, but Qianliang's money was not taken seriously, and this whole body style did not seem to be from a real humble background.

Wei Han was born in a family of merchants, and was still a relatively wealthy direct line in the family. When facing aristocratic families, he couldn't erase that mark.

This is the effect of years of education and the environment. Some things are carved in the bones and cannot be easily erased.

Since it was useless, Qiao Qing only poured a cup of tea for Wei Han and pushed the teapot to Gao Fu's hand.

Her time and energy are very precious and can't be wasted doing meaningless things.

Yanyu is indeed a heartbreaking beauty, but she can't be her cash cow, nor can she be her little lover. It is really unnecessary to do such a gentle thing.

Qiao Qing thought about something in her heart, and straight to the point: "Whether Yulang is out of sight, I have sent someone to investigate, and I can't find you, so I have to write a storybook and invite the banquet man to the appointment in this way."

She took out Liannu, whom Wei Han regarded as a treasure, from under the table.

When the wooden box was opened, only the crossbow machine and the crossbow arm were lying quietly on the red flannel, without feather arrows.

Qiao Qing said: "I have said that Yanlang left this thing in the yard. I am very interested in it. I hope that Yanlang can take some thoughts and help Qi to improve this continuous crossbow. The people of Qi will be grateful for Yanlang. Ende. As long as it is a price I can afford, Yanlang just speaks."

The origin of Yanyu is a mystery, but at first glance, she is not the kind of person who can drink the chicken soup of her dreams and tears.

Qiao Qing was sure that Yanyu had something to ask for her, otherwise, before the two of them had any intersection, Yanyu wanted to come to her, and as soon as he heard the script, he rushed to the banquet.

Now is the time to talk about the bargaining chips, she only hopes that this beauty will not be too greedy.

Yan Yu glanced at it: "This is not what I left behind."

Qiao Qing was stunned for a moment: "Yan Lang has good eyesight. This is not the original, but a copy."

Wei Han hadn't been able to fully study the original Liannu. That night, the people from Binghuo Camp made an imitation overnight, and the original copy was kept for research.

Yanyu said: "I can help you improve this thing, but you have to leave a position for me."

"What position?"

Yanyu thought for a while, what he used to do in the palace seemed to be: "Guo Shi."

The emperor eagerly begged for his position, but later the emperor died, replaced his son, and wanted to drive him down.

This was also the reason why Yanyu didn't like these royal members, all of them were very hypocritical. The young emperor in front of him was also hypocritical, but Yanyu wanted to see his life and understand the secret of the emperor, so he decided to stay.

This time Qiao Qing was really shocked, even more shocked than seeing Yanyu for the first time.

The beauty's ambition is directly proportional to his appearance. Open your mouth is the national teacher!

Qiao Qing looked at Yanyu's eyes, a little bit of trouble. This person did have a face with the bones of a fairy style, and he could easily develop into a cult leader, a white lotus cult, or a red fire cult at a glance.

"Qi Dynasty did not have the status of a national teacher. If I set up a national teacher, can the national teacher be in charge of Taichang?"

Qiao Qing can't say directly, I'm afraid you will stir up the wind and rain, and disturb Chao Gang.

If she doesn't even have this control over Chao Gang, and whoever comes to harm Qi State, then she won't be the emperor.

In any case, Qi State is not unable to find a position that matches the national teacher. Qi Dynasty has too many places, and the responsibility of Taishiling is to observe the sky, calculate solar terms, and formulate calendars.

Putting it aside in later generations, Taichangsuo is equivalent to the Central Meteorological Bureau. I haven't heard of any weather forecaster who can cause rebellion.

The ancients believed in these gods and ghosts, but Qiao Qing believed in science and could not be easily fooled.

She looked at Yanyu: "As long as Yanlang can help me improve Liannu, I will immediately plan to establish a national teacher's mansion and respect Yanlang as a national teacher."

Qiao Qing can give him fame, gold and silver, and beauties, um... the Central Meteorological Bureau can give it to Yanyu in charge of the overall situation.

Qiao Qing's expression was extremely sincere, but Yanyu faintly smelled the taste of calculation.

He shook his head: "I have a mansion myself."

He doesn't need the emperor to support him at all.

so good? Why didn't Qiao Qing believe it, she went on to test: "The salary, I will pay according to the salary of the three gongs, which can be a little higher than the three gongs. I guarantee that the national teacher is above 10,000 people, but only under me?"

"It's okay." Yanyu didn't care about the salary.

He thought of another thing, just doing a little bit of crossbow, this kind of thing is very simple, it seems that you can't get such an official position above the three gongs.

Then he is buying an official from the emperor.

In the early period of the Qi dynasty, military expenditures were extremely expensive due to successive wars. In order to prepare military expenditures, the imperial court clearly marked the price and sold officials. The cost of each position was different according to the salary.

How much money do you have to donate to an official like the National Teacher?

Yan Yu vaguely remembered that the four hundred stones of Qi Chaolu cost four million yuan, the two thousand stones sold for 20 million yuan, and the three men should be 10 million yuan. The emperor just said that the national teacher is under the emperor alone, and that is more powerful than the San Gong.

He asked Qiao Qing: "Am I going to give you 10,000 yuan?"

Yanyu didn't want to owe him the cause and effect of the emperor who couldn't figure out his fate.

Qiao Qing:? ? ?

She didn't have the brain circuit of Shang Yanyu, but she remembered that the manager Wang had said that the brain of this genius was different from that of ordinary people.

It was true that the salary issue was not wrong just now, so Yanyu should have said that it was a slap in the mouth.

She normally understood that Cheng Yanyu asked her for a salary of 10,000 yuan a year.

It's so expensive. It's too expensive to raise this person. Before the reform, the royal official in charge of food and beverages, so many people in the palace, would eat 10,000 yuan for a year, and now it takes that much for a person to feast! This is almost equal to the salary of the Manchu civil and military.

However, if armaments and weapons can be reformed, this expenditure cannot be saved.

She looked at Yanyu now that there were no beautiful filters at all. What a beauty, this is a person who is extremely greedy for money.

"Is it a one-off, or do I have to give it every year?"

"Naturally it is a one-off."

Yanyu heard that the monarch loves money, but he didn't expect the emperor to be so greedy, could it be possible to sell it for a year after being an official.

Qiao Qing breathed a sigh of relief. If it was a one-off, it would not be unacceptable. She couldn't help but bargain: "Is it okay to give half first? The treasury is empty this year and there is not so much money."

She was frugal and cut off the money from the official order, which could be transferred to him.

Yan Yu also frowned: The treasury is empty, do you want to ask him for more money?

"Fifteen million dollars, no more."

Damn, this is the legendary bargaining technique. When you bargain, the other party quotes a higher price, and those who want to promote the transaction will be forced to compromise.

What's more terrible is that the current initiative is in the hands of the people in front of you.

Qiao Qing's tone was firm: "Only ten thousand, paid in one lump sum. No more changes."

Yanyu nodded: "Deal."

He went back to count today and will send the money in two days.
