Chapter 47 The Royal Banquet (1)
Liu Yu had his official position for the first time. He was the chief lieutenant in front of the car, and he was the one who drove his future wife to the car. Unfortunately, Xu Xuanzhu always rode a horse but didn't drive a car when he went to the battle to kill the enemy. So, to sum up, this was a virtual official who only paid his salary but did not work. Otherwise, the couple would easily be taken over by others.
"Master, you won't really go to drive the bus in the future, right? You're leaving... I'm not here to stay."
In the chess room, Su Yan, who had just staged a farce and was ordered by the emperor to "remember the mistakes behind closed doors", was not as gloating as Sui Yi and Li Mi, but on the contrary, he was a little nervous.
Liu Yu looked at Sui Yi who was smiling happily, and glanced at Su Yan again and said, "The emperor asked you to think about your mistakes behind closed doors. Why don't you stay here honestly?"
This time, Su Yan went to the third prince's mansion to make trouble, and he was not as depressed as last time. Maybe he had experience and felt good about himself after making trouble. Today, he wanted to find another family to make trouble, but Liu Yu stopped him.
"My father only said that he would think about his mistakes behind closed doors, but he didn't say that he was thinking in the door or outside the door. I closed the door, and it was not the same when I thought about it here?" Su Yan seemed unconfident, "Master, will my father really leave me in the capital?"
"It's useless to ask me. If you want to ask, you should ask your father."
Su Yan went to the Third Prince's Mansion yesterday to "drunk" and many of them were scolded, many of whom were censors. Even Liu Yu's elder brother and second brother were said to have been scolded. This time, Su Yan's position has also increased. The third prince originally wanted to persuade him with kind words, but later he saw that the boy was still as tough as last time, so he directly asked someone to strike him out. Even so, the guests at the banquet were distracted by him.
Liu Yu also understood very clearly. It was when the emperor enthroned the princess, and now the emperor either kept Su Yan in the capital. This was a manifestation of care. After all, he could watch him not let him do anything wrong. If the emperor lost patience with Su Yan, he would choose the second way and sent him to another place earlier, and he would not have seen it. In fact, the emperor still had some feelings for Su Yan, the legitimate son, otherwise he would not have arranged for Han Sheng to secretly help him when Su Yan was in a down-and-out street.
Liu Yu asked Su Yan to go home honestly and "recalling his mistakes behind closed doors" to show that he was sincere. Su Yan looked reluctant, but he still went back.
Seeing Su Yan leave, Sui Yi said mysteriously: "Brother Liu, let me tell you something, the day after tomorrow... I will go into the palace to meet the emperor."
When the Beijing official saw the emperor, it was normal, Liu Yu asked, "Do you want to go or don't?"
"Of course I want to go. How great is it to be an official to meet the emperor. It is said that I have been promoting anti-theft these days. Someone reported to the emperor. It was originally because I was wrong and lost my official style. But the emperor praised me when I saw it and said that I was not obsessed with my affairs, so I summoned him. Now I am afraid that the emperor will ask about anti-theft again, and I am afraid that I can't answer when I am nervous."
Liu Yu smiled and said, "Then you should go back and take more tutoring. If you memorize it proficiently, you won't be afraid of taking the exam."
"I have memorized it well, probably... there is no big problem. I read Brother Liu's strategy for robbing thefts and memorized it all over the place. I was a little nervous... It feels so good to go to see the emperor."
Li Mi sighed: "Brother Sui is lucky. Once you become an official, you can go to see the emperor, and I...ah!"
Shunde's brother lost his sister-in-law's feelings, and saw Li Mi pretending to sigh, Liu Yu also wanted to learn to treat his friends with a bowl of water.
"It's not that I'm going to draw some training methods for you, and don't let me know another day. I'll take a pen and draw it now!"
Li Mi was very active this time and personally studied cinnabar grinding. Liu Yu originally wanted to find a ruler, but he couldn't find it for a while, so he drew it with his bare hands. Some sketches of some equipment are relatively easy, such as poles and ropes, and some of them are difficult to draw. You have to look at them when drawing them so that the craftsmen don't have to look at them when making them.
Many of them are innovative. It seems that Liu Yu drew more than a dozen outdoor game equipment I have seen before and explained it to Li Mi, mainly to let Li Mi understand the content and methods of training these equipment, and also to prescribe the right medicine for the soldiers' physical condition.
…………
Seeing that the wedding date was approaching, the whole mansion was not prepared at all. Liu Yu's mentality was also very relaxed and he didn't feel the atmosphere of getting married soon.
Only his sister Liu Jue stabbed him with a "hundred-year-old" white embroidered handkerchief, saying that it would be given to his younger brother and sister in the future. Liu Yu saw that the handkerchief was too delicate and seemed too luxurious to wipe his sweat, so he didn't take it seriously.
I originally wanted to tell her about Qi Fang, but after thinking about it, I still didn't say it. Qi Fang will also be invited to attend Liu Yu's wedding banquet, and the two should be able to meet them at the wedding banquet.
The emperor personally gave the marriage, and even proposed the marriage was silent. Liu Yu was a little doubtful whether the wedding banquet could be held as usual in a few days. He wanted to ask Xu Xuanzhu, but he was also obsessed with etiquette. When he went to the future mansion, he could only talk to the Han sisters. Cai Yingnu was just asking and not knowing it.
"Future son-in-law, you shouldn't ask us daughters about these things, right?" Lu Chu'er was no better than Cai Yingnu, at least she would not be stern and sometimes she would joke with Liu Yu.
Liu Yu smiled and said, "This is a reminder. Why don't Captain Lu introduce me to a woman and I'll ask?"
Whenever he saw the commander of the guard being teased by Liu Yu, the little female soldier behind him would laugh "giggle..." and kept laughing. Lu Chu'er was thin-skinned and didn't dare to say anything else when she was laughed at by her sisters.
The wedding date is scheduled on April 19th, and I saw April 17th. Early in the morning, Liu Yu was about to go out for a walk, but saw Liu Zhao.
The old man just said to Liu Yu that the palace held a banquet today to entertain civil and military officials who had made contributions to resisting the enemy. As the general of Tongguan, Liu Zhao was naturally among the invited one, and there was another person in the Dingguo Marquis' Mansion who was invited, which was Liu Yu.
Liu Yu was not seen on the emperor's reward list, and Liu Zhao didn't know that Liu Yu was also involved in the war. He only thought that he was invited because of Xu Xuanzhu's fiancé's relationship, so he asked him to come back after noon to prepare and he could not see anyone again.
Liu Yu never thought that he would be invited, after all, he also felt like a scholar and not like a general who could go into battle to kill enemies.
However, Liu Yu also wanted to meet the legendary emperor to see if he was really a benevolent monarch as Han Sheng said.
When he arrived at the chess building, he saw Sui Yi and Hu Xuan not seeing Li Mi. Li Mi has been busy looking for someone to make training equipment these days and has to be installed on the school grounds, so he was very busy. Sui Yi was very leisurely. He just went to Face Jun yesterday, with a glorious face. When he saw Liu Yu, he talked about the process of Face the Saint yesterday. Even Hu Xuan was listening like a little follower.
Liu Yu was a little upset. He heard him say for a while and asked, "What did the emperor tell you?"
"The emperor said..." Sui Yi thought for a while, "I didn't say much, nor did I test my common sense of robbery. I just said, 'My dear work is done properly and I will use it in the future.' Look, the emperor said that he used it to me. Does it mean that I have a bright future in the future?"
Liu Yu really wanted to tell him that the emperor was not alive for a long time. Once the emperor was in power, it would be better for the future emperor to not take action against him. As for "other use", it depends on whether the current emperor can quickly fulfill his promise. Even if he fulfilled it, the closer he was to the core of power, the more dangerous it was when changing dynasties.
Liu Yu told Sui Yi that he would go to the palace to attend a banquet later today. Sui Yi looked envious: "We are all the most important people, why... don't invite me? Alas! You are still good luck with Brother Liu, I want to attend that banquet too."
Being able to attend a banquet in the palace is a matter of Guangyao's lintel. However, Liu Yu doesn't need to go to Guangyao, and he doesn't want to go to Guangyao. At most, he will just go through the motions when he goes to a banquet.
However, Liu Yu thought that he might meet someone again today, Sima Xuan'er, whom she met at the Song and Dance Hall three days ago. The palace imperial banquet she said she wanted to offer dance should be this day.
Thinking of Sima Xuan'er, Liu Yu couldn't help but laugh. A woman who was not good at dancing skills but was as strong as a hedgehog. Her dancing skills were obviously not yet home. She was not practicing well in a hurry. Liu Yu was so mean, not to fall off the drum on the spot.
