Little lucky girl from the peasant family: Queen Splendid

Chapter 264 Overseas Treasures Arrive!

"Ding Wei" hugged her shoulders tightly in horror, and huddled into a ball under the quilt.

But Yunya turned a blind eye and continued to "gently" cover her with the quilt, "So, be obedient and don't hide any small thoughts. When the matter is over, I will send you home."

"Ding Wei" hid in the quilt, big tears fell down.Originally, she thought that after entering Donghao Palace, someone detoxified her, so she told the truth. The husband she pretended to be a woman is the emperor, who will definitely protect her parents and save her from suffering.Unfortunately, it's still in vain...

Could it be that he could only listen to this devil woman and steal some secret recipe?
Not to mention how amazing the truth hidden in the bedroom is, but to say that today's capital is bustling like never before, even busier than when the Great General ascended the throne.

Outside the north city gate, Princess Tiele, who had been criticized by everyone for so many days, was waiting to enter the city. As a result, outside the south city gate, the Quanzhou fleet shipped novelty items from overseas to present to the eldest son of the emperor.

The old and young people in Kyoto wished they could break themselves in half. One half stayed to see the true face of the princess on Mount Lu, and the other half went to the south of the city to broaden their horizons.It's a pity that everyone cherishes their own life, and they can't really divide it into two halves.In the end, the curiosity about overseas won the victory. After all, the princess can't run away, so she will stay in Donghao in the future, and there is still a chance.But these overseas objects are said to be extremely precious, and no one has ever seen them before!

Sun Shilang was handing over to his colleagues in the Ministry of Rites. Although the emperor was not present as expected, but fortunately there were still people.

It's a pity that before the ceremony was read out, the people ran away with a rumble, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Not to mention the common people, even some low-ranking officials ran to the south gate under the pretext of helping, and the veteran officials in the Ministry of Rites who regard etiquette as their lives almost jumped in anger.

What's so good about something from overseas, it's nothing more than seafood and dried fish, is it really more important than maintaining Dong Hao's face?
At the gate of the south city of Kyoto, it was already crowded at the moment. Countless people gathered on the street inside and outside the gate, looking at the strange thing drawn by a flat carriage.

At first, two pairs of four red corals were pulled on a cart. Unlike the one-foot-high shoddy ones in the past, these four were as tall as a person, and they were so bright red that they seemed to be covered with vermilion in the sun. It's festive and amazing.

On the second carriage was a large conch, so big that even a strong man couldn't lift it.The snail's mouth was full of grape-sized pearls, and every one of them could be inlaid in the silver building with a pearl hairpin that all the women envied.And such a rare large pearl is actually filled with a conch shell, how much is it, one thousand to ten thousand?

And the thumb-sized pearls were only packed in a few cloth bags, showing half of their face aggrievedly, occasionally shining a few rays of sunlight, shining with a resentful luster...

On the third carriage is a bed carved from scallops. This shell is about the same size as the largest bathtub. The natural pattern on the outside of the shell is colorful, and the inside of the shell is white and flat. The brocade bedding and soft pillows are enough for a child. After playing enough to take a nap, I can smell the smell of the ocean in my dream...

Even though the people in Kyoto thought they were well-informed, they were too shocked to shut their mouths at this moment.They have lived all their lives, and some have traveled far and wide, but such coral trees, pearl snails, and scallop beds have never been seen before.

Where did the Quanzhou fleet come from? Could it be that they copied the Dragon Lord's Crystal Palace?

But what surprised them even more is yet to come, and today is destined to be talked about by them many years later.

On the fourth carriage, two large vats were simply placed. Two ten-foot-high trees were planted in the vats. There were not many branches and leaves on the trees, but many long things grew in circles, half yellow and not yellow. Very weird.The guard on the car, perhaps not seeing the doubts of the crowd, climbed up the tree and broke down three or five times, and opened one in two or three, biting the white core inside, and finally shook his head happily, obviously it was Very sweet.

There was that dude who usually walked around the street, so he couldn't help shouting loudly, "Hey, brother in the car, throw down two for everyone to taste. We also thank the eldest son of the emperor for the reward!"

Hearing this, the guard was not stingy, and threw down the few bananas left in his hand.

The crowd immediately became a mess, those rich people and dudes picked it up, and naturally peeled it off and gave it to their mouths.But ordinary people were lucky enough to grab one and held up the bananas and shouted, "Two liang of silver a piece, who wants to taste it?"

Of course, there are those who love novelty and those who don't care about money, so the poor get the money, and the rich get face, and taste the bananas in full view.

"What is this? It's sweet and soft. I'm afraid it suits my grandma's taste best." The dude was still a dutiful son, so he chased after the carriage and took another one into his arms.

Everyone still felt sorry for the eldest son of the emperor. Such a novelty was shipped from overseas, so it was a pity to give it away like this.Of course, they are more or less jealous of that dude's thick skin...

But soon they all wanted to chase after the carriage to beg, because after that, a total of eight carriages were filled with this fruit called banana.

Finally, the carriage carrying the banana trees passed by, and there was still a large open vat on the carriage after that, but the trees in the vat were not tall, and there were small reddish-brown round fruits growing one by one.Maybe it was because the master had ordered them beforehand, and the guards on the car were the same as the previous ones. They first picked one and shelled it and ate it, and finally picked more than a dozen and threw them into the crowd.

Needless to say, "lychee" caused a lot of competition.

After everyone had tasted the lychee and was waiting to taste the oval yellow fruit again, the people in the carriage suddenly became stingy, no matter how much they begged, they refused to drop half of it.Everyone stomped their feet in anger, and could only look at the carriage passing by quickly and drool.

The carriage with the big tank finally drove past, but there was another carriage pulling a big cage.There are many rare birds and animals in the cages. There are small monkeys with golden fur but dark eye circles, leopards the size of civet cats, and big birds that are bigger than golden pheasants but with brighter fur.Someone bravely yelled at the big bird. The big bird was frightened and spread its tail feathers, instantly stunned everyone.

"Ah, this is Phoenix, it's so beautiful!"

"It must be the phoenix, the king of all birds, so it is so!"

"What is that oval fruit, and that big purple-red fruit, what is it like?"

There was a lot of discussion among the people, wishing they could hang their eyeballs on the cart and follow them all the way into the palace to see if they didn't understand.

It's a pity that people are not allowed to accompany the carriage once it enters Qinglong Street.Everyone was very sorry, but at this time, a steward with a tanned complexion but an extremely pale complexion came out and clasped his fists with everyone.

"Fathers and folks, today is the day when our long-distance fleet presents gifts to the eldest son of the emperor. These rare items are only a part. Although the eldest son of the emperor is young, he is magnanimous and generous. He has already ordered me to send most of the remaining fruits to Go to Haiyun Pavilion to sell and have fun with the people. You may as well go to Haiyun Pavilion, maybe you are the first person in Donghao to eat mango, the first person to eat pineapple, the first person to eat fire dragon The one who gets the coconut juice is the first one to drink the coconut juice!"

The steward's mouth was extremely sharp, and with just a few words, everyone's blood boiled, and they ran to the West Market like chicken blood.

Previously, everyone had discovered that there was a store in the West Market that was reorganizing its storefront. Unlike other stores, this store had opened up the entire storefront and opened its doors to a huge extent.

When passing by, people were still talking about what this shop sells. It will be summer soon, and they are not afraid that the sun will damage the goods. Only now do they know that it is actually for the placement of fruit trees brought from these extremely hot places...

Just as everyone was rushing to the West Market, the gift caravan also entered the palace gate smoothly.Uncle Yun personally picked up the convoy at the gate, and the journey was naturally unimpeded. All kinds of objects, large vats filled with fruit trees, and cages filled with rare and exotic animals were all carried outside Yongfu Palace.

An Ge'er happily ran towards the scallop bed, but was caught in his father's arms.

Gong Zhiming turned around and glanced at the quiet Yongfu Palace, and said lightly, "Move to the Guangming Palace. Brother An will live with me for the next few days, so don't disturb your master's cultivation."

Everyone did not doubt that it was there, and led the soldiers to carry it away.Fortunately, the Guangming Hall is next to it, because it is the place where Gong Zhiming lives on weekdays, and he has everything he needs, but he picked out a sunny side hall to put a large fruit tree vat, and then sent the rare birds and animals to the back garden, and the scallop bed. Put it in the bedroom, and the coral and pearls will be put into storage.

Fang Xin also took a sign and came into the palace. When he saw Brother An hugging his father's neck, father and son, you have one bite, and I have one bite, eating bananas happily.The Ding family and all the maidservants also tasted those fruits with great interest, Gu Nanny and Uncle Yun were arguing whether those peacocks were phoenixes, and Sister-in-law Cheng was wiping tears around Cheng Dayou, who had only a white tooth left in the sun.He suddenly felt that it was a bit... superfluous for him to be chosen to offer gifts on this day.

Gong Zhiming glanced at his friend who was obviously guilty, then handed An Geer to Yunying, and finally took him to Yongfu Palace.Suddenly seeing that "Ding Wei" was safe and sound, Fang Xin was almost overjoyed, "Sister, you are still alive! It's great, my mother and Qi Xi are thinking about you all day long, if they know, they will be killed immediately." Come to the palace!"

Unfortunately, when Ding Wei looked at him, his eyes were still full of strangeness.Yunya hurriedly stepped forward to help the master, and reminded in a low voice, "Girl, this is Mr. Fang, your brother-in-law! The novelties that were sent to the palace today were all brought back by the big ship that you and Mr. Fang raised together back then. !"

"Ding Wei" got the reminder, so she timidly called out, "Brother Yi!"

Brother?Shouldn't it be called Big Brother Fang?
A strange look flashed in Fang Xin's eyes, but he still responded with a smile, "It's good that the girl comes back safely. I'll let Qixi come into the palace to talk with you tomorrow. You were the closest to her before!"
