Chapter 45 The Imperial Banquet

Holding the invitation card, Li Xian felt that it was extremely hot; he wanted to throw it away, but he couldn't bear it.

Taking the invitation card means accepting the eldest prince's invitation; throwing away the invitation card means missing the opportunity to really get to know that "green girl".

And this invitation was stamped with the queen's seal, which made Li Xian even more in a dilemma-it's not that simple to break an appointment.

Maybe Li Xian will ask Mr. Xu Renxu, who is excellent in strategy.

This time Xu Ren was also in a dilemma, "Young master, if it were me, I would return to Anyang immediately and say that there is something wrong with Anyang, and the transaction with the Hai clan some time ago had a flaw, so I must rush back to deal with it.

But if the young master still wants to see that 'green girl', he has to go. More, I have no good way. "

"Tsk..." Li Xian felt extremely entangled while holding this flimsy invitation.

go? Going is equivalent to being close to the First Prince's side, and he loses his neutral qualifications, which will have a great impact on future development.

not going? Thinking about the figure that moved his heart, Li Xian couldn't let it go.

go?

not going?

...

This day, Li Xian spent in such entanglements. During this period, Li Xian also wanted to get some information from Zhao Fei, but he didn't want this little Zhao Fei to be so young and old that he didn't say a word.

"Well, just go, I won't accept it, young master."

On the third day, the exposition finally came to an end at noon, and all the cloth, lamps, glass products, textile machines, etc. were sold out. Even the more than 20,000 bearings that were prepared were sold out; , that is, traveling by horses and horses.

In the afternoon, Li Xian went home, that is, the Li Mansion. After making some preparations and tidying up, he followed his father and walked to the palace; he really walked, on foot, and he did not directly enter the palace, but in the palace. Circle the inner city. Along the way, I naturally met many officials, etc., and everyone greeted them with a smile.

Li Xian looked at the fake and fake smiles, and felt contempt in his heart. As he walked, he met people from the Wang family, to be exact, the Wang family team led by Shangshu Wang Chuan of the Ministry of Rites.

Li Yulong pulled Li Xian with a friendly smile, "Xiaoxian, come, and wish Uncle Wang a new year."

What? Li Xian didn't react for a while——Dad, shouldn't we walk over with our nostrils soaring? It's a pity that Li Xian couldn't screw his father, so he could only squeeze out a smile like a stone sculpture, "Uncle Wang, happy new year."

"Okay, okay. Haha, Xiao San'er has grown up a lot, and he is more and more outstanding." Compared with Li Xian's marble expression, Wang Chuan smiled like Maitreya Buddha, and his smile was kind.

Just seeing such a smile, Li Xian shuddered in his heart; but what made Li Xian most angry was, what did this old man say, Xiao Saner? Outstanding? It sounds so harsh!

You are the mistress, and your whole family is mistress.

After the two missed each other, they met Prime Minister Ouyang Wubing and Ouyang Qing.

When Li Xian was pondering whether to go up to say hello again, Li Yulong gave a strange smile, "Hi, Prime Minister, I heard that a few days ago, dozens of people from the Prime Minister's Office were snapping up cheap cloth at the fair. I don't know if this is a rumor or... "

"It's true!" Ouyang Wubing said in a stubborn tone, "This old man is not like some people who sell their official positions in the country, form cliques for personal gain, and seek personal gain. I heard that the luxury of Li's residence is comparable to that of a royal palace."

"Where and where, His Majesty picked the leftovers." Li Yulong directly filled up this small trap of Ouyang Wubing.

Ouyang Wubing ignored Li Yulong and turned to Li Xian instead, "The little guy is good, he actually revealed the new textile machine. The cloth of this textile machine is also very good, the old man's new clothes are cut with new cloth.

Nephew, if you have time after this year, come and sit with me. "

After the Prime Minister finished speaking, Shi Shiran left, leaving Li Xian who didn't know why.

"Haha, let's go, I'll talk to you when I get home." Li Yulong took the bewildered Li Xian around; gradually Li Xian understood that this was Li Yulong imparting experience; Seeing the devil talking nonsense, seeing the treacherous officials smiling, and seeing the arbitrarily serious officials. There is no need to go home and talk about it, Li Xian already understands.

Then Li Yulong pointed all the way to Li Xian's various officials: this one is ignorant, that one is dedicated to practicing, that one is idle...

Li Xian has only one feeling when he hears it—few officials know how to do things. What everyone thinks most about is their own pockets and practice. Many people go out to become officials for the sake of certain items in the jurisdiction.

This Immortal Realm is full of skills nowadays, but there are fewer and fewer genius treasures, and they are almost extinct—not one or two genius treasures have disappeared, but almost all genius treasures have begun to disappear! On the contrary, there are more and more people practicing cultivation.

In this way, being an official has a great advantage-if there is something good in the local area, the official will naturally get it first. Therefore, there are so many people who become officials. This is the advantage of the country, which can enclose land and attract talents.

However, it must be noted that there is no strict division of civil and military ministers in this fairyland-maybe an inconspicuous little Zhima official is still a master of Jindan stage. Therefore, Li Yulong strictly instructed Li Xian: as long as possible, try not to offend others.

Under Li Yulong's leadership, it only took Li Xian half a day to get a good understanding of the officialdom of the Great Xia Kingdom. Li Xian has only one comment on this - it is rotten, there is no cure at all, the next step is to continue to ferment into alcohol, and then a fire can be ignited.

In addition, Li Yulong also pointed out a few capable and patriotic people, and asked Li Xian to remember these few talents.

Strolling all the way to the imperial palace, it was already the beginning of the colorful lanterns, and the colorful lanterns set off the imperial palace like a palace in the sky.

Li Xian walked all the way, the more he walked, the more proud he was, but all the lanterns in important places belonged to his family.

Inside the palace, it was already very lively, with the maids and guards shuttling back and forth, and the related servants were even more busy without touching the ground - they shuttled directly with their spells.

Occasionally, one or two familiar guards can be seen busy, mainly to help arrange seats. Seeing this, Li Xian had to sigh—why can't he see the eunuch? Indeed, there seems to be no such magical existence as eunuchs in this fairyland.

After walking a short distance, I saw the brightly lit lobby; in the past, this was where the imperial court was located, but today it has become a place where the monarchs and officials celebrate. And in this lobby, the golden yellow crystal chandelier hanging directly above is the most conspicuous; Some people are talking about it - it's gorgeous.

Li Xian naturally also heard many people discussing himself, discussing textile machines, discussing expositions and so on; despise. These people also have good reasons-it is a waste of talent to do these messy things without practicing with this talent.

Li Xian listened for a while, and after getting a general understanding of the "industry" in the minds of all practitioners, he left with a mocking smile.

Li Xian is going to the queen, first of all he has to report to the emperor that the place where the queen holds the banquet belongs to the harem, but no one can enter it randomly; although the practice world is not as inhumane as the earth's feudal dynasty, there are still some things that need to be paid attention to.

His Majesty the Emperor was so satisfied with Li Xian's knowledge that he asked a maid beside him to lead the way.
