Northern Song Dynasty: It’s a showdown, who said I, Zhao Zhen, don’t have a son?

Chapter 103 The ugly person
Compared to Zhao He's workshop, Fan Lou is much faster in terms of movement and speed.

The recipe they coerced and lured from the vendors on Chonghe Street was not difficult, and it only took a few simple steps. That evening, they had already copied all the existing soaps and soaps on the market.

And they have also begun to promote that their soaps are of better quality than Ningxiang's and use more exquisite materials.

For a time, the attention of Fanlou soap also rose instantly. People just thought that Ningxiang was also in Fanlou and was probably going to be mass-produced to make money. They were the happiest to see this scene. Selling more would not mean it was cheap. Already?

The night is like water, and the lanterns are shining.

The Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is often more lively than the first day of the new year. It may not be obvious in the palace, but the lantern stalls in the folk streets and alleys reflect it.

Under the rising scene, the liveliness of Chunming Tower was the most eye-catching. The four oirans gathered together, and even the common people wanted to talk about it.

In Chunming Tower, dignitaries from all over the world gathered, and countless famous talents from Bianjing were invited.

In this era, literary talents are very popular, and the rare invitation from Chunming Tower is a reflection of this. Ordinary businessmen may not be able to get one even if they spend a lot of money, but these famous talents can indeed rely on their reputation to earn money. In no time, you can stride into Chunming Tower and catch a glimpse of the peerless face of the thinking courtesan.

When Zhao He and others came to Chunming Tower, they saw countless common people and talented people gathered outside. There were even talented people writing poems in front of the door, intending to rely on their literary talents to enter the building. Not to mention, if they could actually sneak in, of.

When Zhao He took out the invitation sent by Qin Wan, countless people behind him cast envious glances, and countless people also speculated on Zhao He's identity.

"The look looks familiar, he seems to be from Fan Lou."

"Ningxiang's boss, I've seen it with my own eyes. It seems to be some kind of Zhao He."

"Why can he get in even though he is also a merchant?"

"It is said that this person has some relationship with the owner of Chunming Tower. Please speak in a low voice so as not to be overheard..."

In fact, Zhao He wouldn't say anything even if he heard it. After all, he couldn't control these people's mouths. It's just a rumor, so what's the harm in it being heard by you?
However, when entering the door, Zhao He saw a familiar figure. Because the characteristics of the two people were too obvious, Zhao He recognized them almost at once.

Zhou Fei said in a deep voice: "Are they the two people who came up earlier today?"

Seeing the two people walking into Chunming Building, they found a seat and sat down casually. Their eyes were looking around, and Zhao He was also curious.

"It seems that he is not an ordinary person."

"Don't worry, even if there is danger, I can still protect you."

Full of security!
After Zhao He finished sighing, he still asked curiously: "I don't know who those two people are, haha, I'm just curious. It doesn't matter if I can't tell."

The old bustard also knew Zhao He, so he said casually: "We were also invited. The foreign talent is quite famous and has some connections with the Prince of Peiping. I don't know the details."

Zhao He smiled and thanked him, remembering that the Prince of Beiping seemed to be similar to the Prince of Runan, and they were both members of the clan.

Zhao Zhen had no children. According to historical records, he adopted the thirteenth son of the Prince of Runan and the son of the Prince of Peiping into the palace. However, the person who finally became the emperor was the son of the Prince of Runan.

Anyway, it had nothing to do with him, so Zhao He didn't care, but he was slightly interested in the heroic and heroic woman with good martial arts skills.

Heroine, a common character in novels, this kind of character is the most impressive.

The old madam called the boy in the building and took Zhao He into the room that had been arranged in advance. As Zhao He had requested, it was not easy to be noticed by others, and he was directly placed in the room with the yellow digit, which was the lowest.

How can this look like an oiran!

It's been a long time since I came to Chunming Tower, and I'm tired of seeing all the red and green willows. If I hadn't heard that four great courtesans were gathering today, Zhao He might not have come yet.

Yep, it's just Qin Wan's revenge on herself.

Just as he was thinking about it, there was a knock on the door, and the voice of a maid was outside the door.

"Come in."

After the maid entered the door, she felt slightly blessed and said, "Mr. Lang, Manager Qin told me that I might be busy tonight and don't have time to come and visit. Please don't be offended, Mr. Lang."

Zhao He nodded: "It doesn't matter, just tell her that I will teach her a lesson when she gets home." Because the lesson was said a bit deliberately and in a harsh tone, the maid immediately made a mistake and turned red: "Must be brought to..."

After saying that, he ran away in despair.

Zhao He chuckled when he saw this: "I can't believe there are such shy women in Chunming Tower. It's quite rare."

Zhou Feishen nodded in agreement: "I must have just arrived here not long ago, and I don't know the personnel yet."

"Brother Zhou, you are quite good at judging people."

"Young Master is ridiculous. Those who are close to the vermillion are red and those who are close to the ink are black."

"What you said is wrong..."

Upstairs, Qin Wan, who was waiting for guests, heard the maid's message and couldn't help laughing immediately: "You take it seriously, that guy is teasing you, okay, go ahead and get busy."

When the maid left, Qin Wan also had a strange look on her face. This guy was really brave enough to speak out, but he didn't have any courage when doing things.

Thinking about it, he quickly went to receive the guests.

Those who came today are all high-ranking officials. The second-in-command of the Ministry of Rites among the six departments will personally receive the Japanese envoy, so she cannot neglect it.

"Shilang Wang, thanks for your patronage, Chunming Tower is in full bloom..."

The middle-aged man in luxurious attire chuckled and said: "Now that Bianjing belongs to you, Chunming Tower is the most suitable place. I will take advantage of this poetry meeting tonight to let the Japanese envoys see more, and it will be better to go there." comminicate."

"Shilang Qin won't come today?"

Qin Wan leaned over and smiled and said, "My brother is not feeling well today. When I get back, I will definitely say hello to my brother on behalf of Mr. Wang."

The man who was called Wang Shilang lamented: "It's a pity that I can't be present at such a grand event."

"Huh? The envoys from Japan are here. I'm going to meet them."

During the reign of Renzong, known as the prosperous age of Renzong, and the policies of the peace faction adopted by the Xixia and Liao Kingdoms, even during the peak period of the New Deal, the foreign policy was generally the same, with almost no major wars.

At this time, in the court, the officials belonging to the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Personnel are the most noble. The existence of a minister of the Ministry of Rites can actually make Chunming Tower take it seriously.

In addition to Wang Jingchuan, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, other important figures such as the Prince of Runan and the Prince of Beiping were also present. Naturally, the people from Fan House, who held the Yuanxi Poetry Festival together with Chunming Tower, would not be absent.

Then there are a group of dignitaries in the court, but the positions of these people are not high. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that today the minister of the Ministry of Rites is showing attention to the Japanese country. Although the court is now friendly to the people of the Japanese country, if you come here That meant siding with the pro-Japanese faction, so there were almost no bigger figures present.

But even ordinary officials are beings who need to be highly respected by ordinary people. After all, only a few businessmen receive invitations, and only a few wealthy people in Bianjing who have donated a lot of money can get a few places.

The specifications are naturally extremely high.

Zhao He and others were sitting near the window, and then they saw Wang Jingchuan, the pro-Japanese leader, and trotted up to the Japanese man.

A group of more than a dozen people were serving in native Japanese clothes. This originated from the clothing culture of the Tang Dynasty. It was slightly different from the Song Dynasty, but not much. However, the mustache under the nose and the short body were quite eye-catching, and it was immediately obvious. difference.

I saw Wang Jingchuan bowing to those people and being extremely polite.

"It's a great honor for all of you to come here despite your busy schedule..."

"I heard that Mr. Wang said that there will be a beautiful woman to accompany you today?"

"Women from the Central Plains really want to taste it."

"Don't worry, supervisors, everything has been arranged..."

Zhao He's face turned ugly almost instantly. Sure enough, China has had no shortage of people who kowtow to the Japanese people since ancient times, the so-called traitors.

His face is really ugly.
