A pungent smell rushed into Han Qi's nose, and Han Qi couldn't help it, "A-choo!"
He sneezed and almost spit the snot into his plate.
Well...
The team leader quickly moved away with his plate, then grinned.
"Sorry, sorry," Han Qi felt so embarrassed.
"It's nothing, it's nothing. It's normal for you southerners to feel uncomfortable with this for the first time."
The two left the line and received a pair of chopsticks at the end of the line.
Sitting on the stool in the cafeteria, there was a thick cushion on the stool. Although the cushion was filled with straw, it was much more comfortable than the cold stool surface.
Han Qi sat there, feeling dazed.
From the moment he saw the cafeteria to now when he was eating greasy meals, everything was beyond his imagination.
It turns out that being a soldier is respected.
It turns out that the country will ensure that the soldiers are well fed and well clothed.
It turns out that the team leader really eats the same food as ordinary soldiers.
It turns out that you can really eat enough.
In comparison, the treatment of the Vietnamese army is a joke...
and many more!
The moment this thought came to his mind, he suddenly woke up.
No, this is the capital of Qing Kingdom. It is normal for the garrison troops in the suburbs to be treated well. If the soldiers guarding the border were also treated like this, that would be truly amazing.
He didn't believe it.
The Qing Kingdom is not small, and he doesn't believe that the soldiers guarding the border will be treated like this...
The envy that had just risen in my heart was extinguished in an instant.
.
Xiao Yuanche and Xiao Yuanshuang sat in a carriage and entered the imperial city of Qing Kingdom with a small group of people. Murong Anle followed behind on horseback with his people.
Beijing.
The lights are just coming on at this time.
In the cold winter snow, lights come on on the streets.
Xiao Yuanche mainly kept an eye on the shops on the street, where there were restaurants and where there were flower markets.
Of course, the flower market in his mind is the kind of flowers that the courtesan has.
Xiao Yuanshuang's attention was attracted by the bright lights on the long street.
Every ten meters or so on the main street, there is a wooden pole, about two meters high.
There is a lantern hanging on it.
The lantern emits a pale yellow light.
It was very strange, it was a cold winter day and there was wind, but the light didn't seem to be affected by the cold wind at all.
She wanted to ask what was going on, but after opening her mouth and looking at Murong Anle several times, she didn't ask.
She really doesn't want others to think that she is ignorant.
Murong Anle, the old fox, saw through Xiao Yuanshuang's intention at a glance, and rode his horse forward a few steps with a smile.
"Your Highness, this lamp was invented by the Emperor. It will not go out even in the wind, rain or snow."
"Before dark every day, someone will light the lights."
Xiao Yuanshuang pursed her lips, "So magical? Are candles used inside?"
"It's common kerosene. After daybreak, the kerosene will burn out and automatically go out." Murong Anle's eyes flashed with cunning. "Your Highness, do you know what this lamp is called?"
Xiao Yuanshuang was completely attracted by the light and shook her head involuntarily.
After shaking his head, he quickly stopped, fearing that Murong Anle might notice something.
Murong Anle smiled and said, "This lamp is called the Wind-Slaying Lamp."
"what?"
Xiao Yuanshuang was completely shocked. This kind of lamp sounded insignificant. It could be hung on the main street to illuminate the night and benefit the people.
The key point is that it has such a tacky name.
An emperor is so busy with his daily affairs, how can he care about these things...
Xiao Yuanshuang became curious about the retired emperor of Qing Kingdom. Was the empress chosen by him also so different?
For the first time, the secret little thought in her heart began to waver.
Can I really compete with Murong Yue?
No.
Definitely.
I started my education at the age of three, read the Four Books and Five Classics at the age of ten, and read a wide range of books at the age of fourteen. Now I am twenty years old and can help my father to review memorials.
No worse than Murong Yue.
Xiao Yuanshuang took a deep breath, lowered the curtain, and the carriage wobbled into the palace.
Xiao Yuanshuang could see the high palace walls through the gap in the door curtain and felt that there was no difference between the Qing Palace and the Yue Palace.
Finally, the carriage stopped and the two were helped out by maids.
"Your Highnesses, this is Lingxi Palace. The main hall and the secondary hall have been tidied up, and the servants' accommodation has also been arranged."
"You two can prepare your own meals in the small kitchen, or you can ask the imperial kitchen to prepare them for you."
"If you want to leave the palace, just go out from here. This road to Lingxi Palace is very close to the palace gate. You don't need to ask anyone for permission."
"There is only one way. Only you two and your personal servants can go out of Lingxi Palace to other palaces."
"Your Majesty is the only master in the palace, and there is no one else, so you two can rest assured."
what?
What are you worried about?
Xiao Yuanche didn't understand at all.
Xiao Yuanshuang bowed to Murong Anle, "Thank you, Lord Murong."
She understood that Murong Anle's subtext was that there was only the empress in the palace, and the other palaces had no owners and no one.
There's nothing fun to do, so you'd better go out and play.
Besides, no one would summon them except the Empress...
This is a disclaimer.
Before leaving, Murong Anle also explained that there would be a palace banquet tomorrow night.
After leaving Lingxi Palace, the smile on Murong Anle's face immediately disappeared, and he called his personal attendant, "Go, check the people around Xiao Yuanshuang and Xiao Yuanche. She deliberately wanted to bring more servants in, it's not that simple."
"Be careful not to alert the enemy."
"Yes."
When passing by the gate leading to the inner palace of Lingxi Palace, he specifically told the soldiers guarding the gate, "As long as they enter the inner palace, send five people to follow them openly and send another five people secretly."
"Yes."
Even though Murong Anle usually smiles, that is only in front of His Majesty.
In front of other people, he is always the most cautious one.
After arranging everything, he came to the Hall of Supreme Harmony and reported to His Majesty that he had successfully received the Yue State delegation.
Murong Yue was having dinner. There was a new dish for dinner today, which looked a bit like roasted brain.
It's actually fried tofu.
Murong Yue felt embarrassed that Murong Anle talked so much in a gibberish manner but she didn't understand a single word he said.
She pushed the empty plate in front of her, "You, eat together."
what?
Murong Anle was delighted.
It seems that I did a very good job in receiving the Yue State delegation, and His Majesty actually gave me a reward.
Ah Hao immediately added chairs and dishes to the side.
Murong Anle hurried over and sat down carefully, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Mmmmm, eat!"
Murong Yue thought for a while and put all the food she thought was delicious in front of Murong Anle.
Steamed fish, sweet tofu, grilled tofu...
There's nothing we can do about it, the Empress' taste is just so simple and unpretentious.
Murong Anle was lost in memories while eating.
His Majesty ascended the throne at a young age. Before His Majesty ascended the throne, he had eaten at the same table with His Majesty. But after His Majesty ascended the throne, he was busy with state affairs and did not slack off at all.
Not to mention the opportunity to have a meal together, even His Majesty himself hasn't had a good meal in several years.
Your Majesty has inexplicably become more worldly-wise these past few days than before.
This is right.
It would be great for a young girl to be a good empress.
Take care of yourself too.
Murong Anle felt that he was really taking advantage of the opportunity to receive such a reward for this mission.
