The son-in-law is a thief

Recently, there are a lot of people coming to the princess mansion, and there are many interesting things and interesting things. For example, some envoys bring entourages with pure black skin, like people who have come out of oil, or someone sent them to look at the stars. With his eyes, he could almost see the Guanghan Palace on the moon. General Echizen also invited a band from the West to play at the gate of the princess mansion every day. All kinds of tricks can be described as everything that one expects to find.

But none of this is as interesting as today's gift.

It was a Western clock made of pure copper. It was a three-foot-high miniature building rather than a clock. Although no one knew what it was, they could feel that this magnificent place should be a castle or a castle. It is a palace, and a cross is erected on the top of the castle. It is well known that it is a god believed by Westerners.In front of the palace is a pool of lake water, which is said to be made of copper. There are two swans playing on the lake. The feathers are clearly visible and the carvings are very delicate. Wisteria is still attached to the main body of the castle, although the wisteria is also copper. But the petals seem to be ready to bloom one by one. The main body of the castle is even more exquisite, and subtle decorations can be seen between the bricks.

The most gorgeous thing is the clock on the castle. The clock face is carved with beasts like lions and tigers, and the dial is surrounded by roses and vines. The craftsmanship of this thing is so exquisite that even the best craftsman in Niangui City cannot imitate it.

"This craftsmanship is really amazing." Chang Shi from the princess mansion sighed unconsciously, and he turned to Feng Di and said, "I have collected so many things these days, none of them can compare to this."

Feng Di unconsciously nodded, compared to those who gave self-portraits, this gift was the most thoughtful.

"The envoy who sent this object also said that the clock will change in various ways when the time comes, but I haven't seen any movement yet."

After saying that, Shi squatted down and looked up and down at the clock again.

"Who sent this?" Feng Di asked, it was rare to see such a thoughtful gift.

"It is said to be from the country of Kiribala in Persia. The envoy is tall and big, with blond hair and a high nose bridge. He looks like an outsider."

"The prince of Kiribala country is hardworking." Fengdi said, she couldn't help but want to say a few good words for the Persian prince in front of Zhaoyang.

"But..." the envoy smiled awkwardly, and added: "But the envoy said it was sent by their princess."

Feng Di was taken aback: "Shouldn't it be a prince?"

Chang Shi thought about it for a while, and said, "The envoy said that there is only one princess in their country."

Feng Di was puzzled, this is good, Gu Ruyang came before, and now there is Princess Kiriguala.

"Okay, I got it, it's been a long history of hard work." Feng Di said, and then sent someone to deliver this gift to the Princess Courtyard. It's rare that there is something she can also fancy, so naturally she has to send it in for everyone to watch Ornamental.

The four men worked together to carry the bronze bell into the courtyard. When they heard that someone had sent a rare object, all the servants in the house surrounded it. Just seeing the workmanship, people couldn't help clapping their hands and applauding it.Fengdi invited Zhaoyang again. Although Zhaoyang had more knowledge than these servants, he felt a little strange when he saw this clock. It was different from the clocks she had seen before, and it was also placed in her father's palace. But it's much smaller than the one in front of you.

Zhaoyang walked up to the clock, lowered his body and squatted down to look at the clock, nodding his head in admiration from time to time, but unfortunately the envoy who delivered the clock was not there, so he couldn't be bothered. For example, who is the master who made the clock? Nothing fancy.

While Zhaoyang was watching, the bell rang suddenly, and Zhaoyang instinctively took half a step back, and then something even more miraculous happened. All the windows on the castle opened by themselves, and in the windows you could see all the things in the room. There are displays, but the displays are not the same. The clock dial also moved its direction, and a golden bird popped out from behind the dial. As it appeared, the clock rang music, and as the main gate of the castle was opened, a carriage slowed down. Slowly coming out of the city, the carriage is hollowed out, and a girl can be seen sitting in the carriage. The carriage is running along the lake, and the swans on the lake are also sliding in the opposite direction, following the wisteria on the wall. Flowers, this delicate copperware seemed to come alive, Zhaoyang felt more and more miraculous after looking at it, then the carriage ran around the lake and returned to the castle, the swans also stopped, and the flowers returned to their shy appearance , followed by the bird, and the dial returned to where it should be.

"This is really ingenious." Zhaoyang got up, and she couldn't help but said: "I didn't expect such a craft to exist in the foreigner."

"This... is really amazing, and I don't know which craftsman made it." Feng Jian couldn't help sighing.

Fengdi replied: "I don't know which craftsman, but... I heard it was also sent by a princess."

"Princess?" Feng Jian said: "It's really weird, there are still people who send princesses to propose marriage?"

"What kind of country is Kiriguala?" Feng Di said, also with a blank expression on his face: "It's really a precedent for Gu Dazhao to set a precedent."

Unexpectedly, when Zhaoyang heard it, he shook his head with a smile. Zhaoyang looked at the clock and said, "This gift is from the princess, but I'm afraid it wasn't chosen by the princess of Kirigala."

"What's the meaning of this, Your Royal Highness?" Fengdi asked. The foreign series are all small places, unlike the Dazhou, where there are six. Generally, the choice of tribute is chosen by the monarch of the foreign series. Now Zhaoyang said It was not chosen by this princess, it seems that there is another meaning in the words.

"Send the bell on such a day?" Zhaoyang had a puzzled expression on his face: "She still can't do such a stupid thing."

When Fengdi heard Zhaoyang's words, he suddenly realized, isn't sending the bell the same as sending the end?

"The princess thinks so highly of this Princess Fanwai?" Fengdi said: "The barbarians don't know how to perform etiquette, so what if the princess chooses it?"

"Heh..." Feng Jian seemed to understand, she chuckled lightly: "I'm afraid there is only one person who can do such a stupid thing."

Feng Di looked at the two of them with a puzzled look on his face: "What are you talking about? Why can't I understand."

Feng Jian poked the head of the flute and said: "It's okay if you don't understand, as long as your eyes can see clearly, I'm afraid there will be a good show on the day of choosing a son-in-law."

Zhaoyang looked at the clock with joy on his face: "Have someone pack this clock and put it in the warehouse."

Feng Di knew that he was stupid again, and he really couldn't guess what Zhaoyang was thinking. This Zhong Zhaoyang obviously liked him so much but he didn't let him stay in the room. He didn't seem to be curious about the princess. Looking at Fengjian and Zhaoyang It was exactly the same, she was curious and discouraged at the same time, pouted to ask the clock to be taken back to the warehouse, and then went to Chang Shi to ask about Kirigala again.

In the small courtyard not far from Princess Zhaoyang's mansion, Gu Ruyang was also busy preparing for choosing a son-in-law in a few days. She looked at the so-called princess clothes that Zeng Shi found for her, but none of them caught her eye. Either the skirt was too big, or the waist was too thin.

"You just let me wear this?" Gu Ruyang raised his eyebrows: "Mr. Du said that fighting openly and secretly will be inevitable. Are you going to let me play with those people like this?"

Zeng Shi covered his mouth with a pensive face. He really couldn't think of what to wear with his little brain. In order to find decent clothes, he had sought the opinions of many foreign sailors, but if it was true as Du Yong said, when the time comes After entering the Longevity Palace, the officials will try to make things difficult for the visitors, these clothes really cannot be used by Gu Ruyang.

"How many days before entering the palace?" Gu Ruyang asked.

"Counting today, there are still three days." Zeng Shi replied, even if he went to Wanshigang to get clothes now, there is no rush.

"En." Gu Ruyang looked straight at Zeng Shi, as if pretending to be a princess was Zeng Shi's idea.

"..."

When Zeng Shi was in Jiaozuo, he saw Gu Haixing running back again, as if what Gu Ruyang told him had been done, with a smile on his face.

"Is it done?" Gu Ruyang asked.

"It's done. Chang Shi, who sent the things over, was very happy to see him." Hai Xing replied with a proud face.

"What good gift did you give?" Gu Ruyang asked curiously. In fact, she regretted asking Haixing to choose a gift. After all, Haixing always thinks differently from ordinary people.

"bell."

Gu Ruyang began to feel a little pain in the head again, and it was not good to give it for a minute, I am afraid that only Gu Haixing would do such a stupid thing.Gu Ruyang thought about it and was about to start having a seizure, but Hai Xing said again: "Is the princess' mansion returning the gift?"

"requite?"

Hai Xing nodded and said: "We were originally afraid that someone would follow us, so we took a detour in Niangui City, and finally met people from the Princess Mansion. They seemed to come to find us on a special trip. I hid in the car, but I also heard that it was Feng Jian's voice, she told the messenger that the princess liked the gift very much, and then gave the messenger a package, I looked at it on the way, it was a piece of clothing."

Zeng Shi no longer cared about Gu Haixing dismantling Gu Ruyang's things without authorization, he felt that he was saved when he heard the word "clothes".

"Come and take a look!"

As Hai Xing spoke, he handed over a package, and when he opened the package, it turned out to be a piece of clothing. The material of this clothing is not high-grade silk, it is basically made of hemp material, but this hemp material is not like ordinary people wear, this hemp thread It is made to be extremely fine and soft, and the cloth does not feel harsh to the touch, but the texture is still thick and feels extremely durable. The pattern on the clothes is not the common Hokuriku style, but somewhat Japanese style.

"This is a craftsmanship of the Aizu people." Gu Ruyang is quite familiar with the sea. The Aizu is on an archipelago between Taiping Island and Dongying. The people there are uncivilized and do not know how to raise silkworms, but the local The hemp material is indeed excellent, but the output is not high.

"This size... seems to be made according to your figure..." Zeng Shi looked at the clothes. Not only did the size seem to be Gu Ruyang's, but he also seemed to have prepared for the choice of this linen material.

Gu Ruyang touched the material and smiled knowingly: "What a little fox."
