Chapter 9 Shangyuan Lantern Festival (2)

Chapter 9: Shangyuan Lantern Festival (2)

The Diaoyutai State Guesthouse, because the boss behind it is the court, the service, facilities and environment are the best in Beijing. It turned out to be the embassy inn that receives foreign envoys or VIPs. After Tian Shulan took over, it was completely renovated and renamed the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse. In order not to waste resources, the imperial court announced that the State Guesthouse was open to the public, so it became the highest inn in Beijing. One room in one room is enough for an ordinary family to eat for a month. This kind of consumption can only be spent on the rich businessman and princes, so all those who move in it are rich and noble, gentry and celebrities.

The location of the State Guesthouse is easy to find, and Magu and the others found its location almost without any effort.

When Magu entered the quaint hall, he was surprised to see a scene that was completely different from the inn they saw along the way. First, two beautiful women stood on both sides of the door. When they saw them coming, they first came forward with a smile and greeted them with warm and steady questions. They asked them what they needed. Magu was so flattered and said intimately that there was such a place in the capital that actually allowed the woman to show up in public. This was incredible outside.

What surprised Magu even more was that almost all the men here were women, with the same dress and clothing, and almost every woman could stop and watch when she walked out. She began to wonder if she had entered the beautiful country of daughters.

"Miss, do you stay in a hotel?" A crisp sound like a yellow oriole was remembered in Magu's ear. Ma San and others behind her were even more shocked. The sound floated through their ears, and the 36,000 pores all over their bodies seemed to be ironed, and they were indescribably comfortable.

"Is this an inn?" Magu's face turned slightly red, and she felt a little embarrassed. She was stared at by a beautiful and beautiful girl, as if she was a country bun.

"Yes." Qingxiu female servant Yingying replied with a smile, "This is an inn, Miss, do you need to stay in a hotel?"

"If you need it, you need it, there are nineteen of us in total. Give my lady a room above and we can just have a bed!" Ma San was completely fascinated by the beautiful girl here, and excitedly snatched her lady's words.

"Ma San, get out!" Ma Gu was angry and said to the pretty maid who spoke to him, "You are ignorant, don't blame me for being ignorant."

The beautiful maid is no longer accustomed to it. Since the State Guesthouse opened to the public, many people of all kinds have seen it. Sometimes it is not uncommon to see such a misconduct four or five times a day. He still smiled and said with a smile: "Miss is serious. The guests are our parents of food and clothing. How dare we blame it?"

"What guest rooms do you have here?" Magu asked.

"We have thirty-six different gardens here, which can accommodate ten to three hundred people, and there are several different guest rooms, including single-person luxury suites, single-person luxury suites, double-person luxury suites, double-person luxury suites, single-person rooms, double-person rooms, four-person rooms, etc., but there is no such thing as the servant just mentioned, single-person luxury suites include..." The beautiful maid explained in a bit of tea and explained the composition of the entire State Guesthouse.

Magu and others were dizzy when they heard it. Unexpectedly, staying in an inn was so complicated. Especially the design in it surprised her. Who had such a wonderful idea. She couldn't help but have the strong idea of ​​seeing the designer behind the scenes. Staying in a small place in Miaojiang, she didn't know that what she thought was proud of had long been behind.

"Miss, how many rooms do you need to book or which garden to move into?" Qingxiu's maid was a little stunned when she saw Magu, and couldn't help but remind her.

"Oh, then just a single suite, and they can live in a four-person room." Ma Gu calculated that it would cost hundreds of taels of silver to live here for a month, but she was a lady from the big family and had no idea about money. If it were Mr. Ma, she would probably feel sorry for her. These silvers are enough for dozens of families to live for a year.

"How long does a lady plan to stay?"

"A month." Magu thought for a while and said, when he came, his father said that there are many officials in the capital and many yamen. I'm afraid it will be good to see Zhuoba, at least it will take so much time.

The beautiful maid called a maid who was similar to her and asked her to take Ma San and the others to the room of the four-person room. She herself took Ma Gu to check in, took the room nameplate and key, and took Ma Gu to the single suite.

While walking, the beautiful maid told Ma Gu the key points of check-in. After all, this place is very different from the traditional inn. If no one tells and guides it, some guests may not even be able to open it, let alone the various novel facilities in the guest rooms. Even the maids and maids had been trained for a few days before they could fully master it.

When he arrived at the door of the room that Magu decided to be opened, the beautiful maid demonstrated the lock-opening action and handed a golden key to Magu and said, "Miss Ma, this is the key to your room. Please keep it in the past month. When you leave, just hand it over to the person at the front desk when you check out."

It was a surprise step by step. The thing Magu saw today had already stimulated her nerves very strongly. She took the keys in a bit of silence and nodded.

After learning how to open the door, the beautiful maid led Magu into her room and explained the facilities inside the room step by step, a small living room, a set of exquisite tea sets, a large bedroom, a soft collapse that is enough to sleep with three of her own, on which are white quilts and pillows. They call it "Simmons". The scent of orchids in the room is obviously filled with spices, and there is also a study room, four treasures of the study, the classics, history, and collections of classics and literatures in the bookcase are arranged neatly and spotlessly, and there is also a detailed bathroom. The entire suite seems to be separated by a large room by walls of varying lengths. In addition to the kitchen, it can be regarded as a perfect small home. It is outlined in such a small space, giving people a warm feeling, simple and elegant furniture from time to time, which further shows the unique ingenuity of the designer. Magu fell in love with this room as soon as he came in.

"Miss Ma, are you still satisfied with this room?" Qingxiu maid asked with a smile.

"Satisfied, satisfied, so satisfied." Magu nodded excitedly.

"Who is the boss here? I want to meet him." In life, I find that he is a soulmate. Magu finds that everything he designed here seems to be the soulmate he is looking for, and he asked impatiently.

The beautiful maid opened her mouth wide, looked at Magu in surprise, and stuttered, "Miss Ma, don't you know that this place was opened by the imperial court?"

"Court, do you say this inn belongs to the court?" Magu said embarrassedly.

"Yes, this is a state guesthouse, of course it belongs to the court. In the past, only entertained envoys and guests of the vassal states, but now it is open to the public to avoid being idle and wasted."

"Is this the case here before?" Magu was even more surprised.

"No, this was not like this before. It was just that whenever there were envoys or VIPs of the vassal states checked in, the court would allocate some silver to repair it. It was idle all the time. It was not until the current emperor ascended the throne that huge amount of money was allocated to be converted into what it is now."

"Miss means that this is what the new emperor has built after he ascended the throne?" Magu thought that it had been a long time ago to design and build this place, but he didn't expect that it would have happened not long ago, and his disappointed heart immediately became happy again.

"Don't call me a girl, call me Qingxiu." Qingxiu maid said, "Miss Ma, there are some things that we maids cannot understand, so Qingxiu may not be able to help you with your request."

"That's right, then thank you Qingxiu for being a little disappointed." Although Magu was a little disappointed, fortunately, she still had to stay in the capital for a while and would not worry about not having the chance to know the secret here.

"Qingxiu still has something to do. Miss Ma, you are tired along the way. Have a good rest!" Qingxiu maid has a good impression of Ma Gu, and she is not as arrogant as the other rich lady, and she looks down on others. If this was not the state guesthouse of the court, a poor woman like her who showed up in public would have been pointed at behind her back.

"Oh, by the way, today is the Lantern Festival. Today, tomorrow night, the Aoshan Lantern is set up at the Wumen Gate. I listen to the whole thing. Miss Ma, this is your first time to come to the capital. Let's go and have a look. This year, I heard that the emperor will visit the Lantern Festival in person and have fun with the people!" Qingxiu walked to the door and suddenly turned around and said.

"Thank you, Qingxiu, I will definitely go back if I have time." She smiled and nodded gratefully. After 20 days of travel, she was in poor physical and mental state. What she needs most now is rest. Whether she can catch up with the Lantern Festival in the evening depends on whether God will let her wake up on time.

While thinking, there was a knock on the door. Magu opened the door and stood at the door, carrying a bucket of hot water. She remembered that she had asked her to take a shower and send someone to deliver hot water. It was estimated that these two people were here to deliver hot water, but she didn't expect it to be so fast. It seemed that the service here was not comparable to ordinary inns.

I felt comfortable and soaked in the novel bathtub, and put on the magic soap. After rinsing, I felt comfortable all over my body. Half of my fatigue was gone. After sniffing, my body actually emitted the faint fragrance of soap, which shocked Magu. When I recalled the moment I entered here, I was surprised everywhere.

After taking a shower, Magu was radiant and beautiful. Is the red girl in the bronze mirror really hers? Magu never faced her beauty, because in Miaojiang, she is the most beautiful. Today she finally saw that every maid here has such a good look. Although she is not as good as herself, she is one of the most beautiful women in her place. The woman's nature of love for beauty has made Magu feel a little jealous.

Lie on the 'Simmons' that Qingxiu said, and crawled into the soft quilt, "It feels so comfortable, so comfortable, so comfortable." Magu had never slept in such a comfortable bed and couldn't help but moan, but not long after, she fell asleep. Yinghong's little mouth still made a slight snoring, exhaling like orchids, still snoring!

What a beautiful girl sleeping soundly. Magu is more beautiful than when she is awake.
