Chapter 973: Impressions of the Capital
Last Updated:
2024-08-03 14:45:34It was still early, but the days were short in winter. The sky outside the window had darkened, replaced by lights. The drunken Madam Xue said, "It's getting late, I have to go back to the shop, please excuse me."
Lord Hou, who was sitting opposite, said, "I won't keep Madam Xue either. Let me take you back."
"No need to trouble Lord Hou." Madam Xue said hurriedly.
Lord Hou laughed and said, "You are a woman, so if I don't send you off, it would seem so ungraceful."
After hearing this, Madam Xue could not continue to refuse, so she just muttered, "Is there such a thing?"
She stood up first, and Lord Hou also stood up. The two of them went downstairs together, and the manager of the Pear Garden also saw them to the door. Outside the door stood a large double-drawn carriage, and two men were standing by the side with horses. One man opened the wooden door at the back, lifted the curtain, and bowed to wait for the two to get in the carriage.

It had already darkened, and the palace was already a night scene. Zhu Gaoxu went straight to the Imperial Concubine Palace.When Miaojin went out to greet him, he followed the etiquette in front of the palace people and didn't ask any questions. But Zhu Gaoxu came back so late and was still wearing clothes that were not part of the royal etiquette. He could vaguely see a scrutinizing look in Miao Jin's eyes.Zhu Gaoxu felt a little guilty for no reason. But when he thought about it, he hadn't done anything, and he didn't seem to have any intention of finding a woman. Even before meeting Mrs. Xue, he didn't know that the person he was meeting was a woman. What on earth was he guilty of?When the two of them arrived at the palace, most of the palace attendants left. Miao Jin then said, "Your Majesty smells of alcohol. Has he had a meal?"Zhu Gaoxu nodded in agreement.Miaojin said, "I asked someone to prepare hot water. Your Majesty, please take a

It is said that the bronze mirrors made by the Xue family have two special features. First, most of the Xue family mirrors are antiques, using antiques from the Han and Tang dynasties to make models and then cast. In addition, lake water must be used to polish the mirror surface.Perhaps because of this impression, when Zhu Gaoxu saw Lady Xue again, he immediately thought of the image of a clear lake. Although she was wearing a pink coat and skirt, and her hair was tied up in a graceful and dignified bun, she was not wearing any makeup, and her fair face was beautiful. It just looked a little plain.When greeting her, Zhu Gaoxu pretended to support her, looked her over, and asked, "It seems that the shopkeeper of the Xue family has responded?"Madam Xue said in a gentle tone, "The master has agreed, and I am willing to accept this job from the government.""Very good." Zhu Gaoxu clapped his hands and said, "Then the matter is done."Madam Xue loo

The air was obviously very noisy, but Zhu Gaoxu felt as if it was very quiet. Probably because he didn't pay attention to the sounds outside, he only noticed that Mrs. Xue was silent.Mrs. Xue finally spoke, but her voice became smaller and smaller, "In the past, the slave family always thought that they would never become that kind of person. The neighbors made irresponsible remarks, and the slave family had a clear conscience. But..." She suddenly sucked hard. After taking a breath, he raised his head and said, "The Nu family is not that kind of person."Zhu Gaoxu didn't know whether to take back the bundle containing the rouge and powder box or push it away. He thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll give it to someone else."Madam Xue kept her head down and said nothing.The atmosphere was a bit awkward, so Zhu Gaoxu looked around and said with a smile, "This name is quite interesting. It should come from a saying, 'There is heaven above and Suzh

After the "Jingnan Campaign", the Liaodong Military Commission sent people to temporarily manage Daning City. Later, many merchants came and the market has gradually recovered in recent years. But it is still not as good as in the past, when Daning City had a prince's palace and a large number of officials.Early in the morning, the most crowded place is the front street market. There are small shops around, and many peddlers, it is a mess, but also lively. The weather is still cold in the early spring, especially in the early morning, many people wear thick clothes, which makes them look a little bloated.Sun Yonger passed by here and stopped to watch for a while. He was going to the Liaodong Military Commission's office in Daning to do some work. Basically, he wanted to receive the things he needed for taking office and register his name so that he could follow the troops heading east to Liaoyang.The Wangji "馃子" shop across the street was doing good busin

Major war preparations are usually difficult to hide, and Arutai and others have already noticed the movements of the Ming army. But until now, the information they knew was still incomplete.This is because the spies of the Liaodong garrisons, including the Uriankhai and Khorchin peoples active in the south, had recently suffered a serious blow.First, the Ming court sent the Minister of Justice to Daning City to interrogate and arrest many military officers who had secretly traded with the Uriankhai people. The case affected a wide range of military officers, from Daning City to Liaodong Metropolitan Command, and countless military officers were convicted. It is said that Cao Yi, the commander of Liaodong Metropolitan Command, was exiled to the distant Nurgan Metropolitan Command because of this.Then the Ming officials arrested a captain named Wang and found that he was secretly communicating with a Mongolian spy, so they also arrested the Mongolian spy.

The time of joy and relaxation is always short. After people enjoyed the whole roasted lamb and milk wine, the warm and hospitable songs of persuading people to drink disappeared, and everyone's demeanor gradually became solemn.The tribesmen of the host, Toluhuchar, were making milk tea. They boiled the black flakes from the Han area with milk and water. While the leaders were drinking the milk tea, they started to talk about business.Aluta observed the Khan Adai who was sitting above him and saw that the Khan also looked troubled.This war may not be particularly important to the Ming Dynasty, at least it did not affect the fate of the country. The emperor of the Ming Dynasty did not personally lead the army, and the target of the attack was not the heartland of Mongolia. But for the Tatars, it was indeed very crucial.The Oirat people already had a Khan, called Dabari Khan. As long as the new Khan of the Tatar tribes, Adai (the Khan of All Mongolia

The earth was not quiet. The sound of the wind was filled with the sound of horse hooves, shouts, and the noise of various drums and trumpets. But when Adai Khan rode up to a high ground, he stood for a while and felt that the world seemed to be shrouded in a kind of emptiness. Perhaps it was because the gently undulating earth was too vast, and countless people in it were as light as ants.Adai Khan had talked a lot with his subordinates before, but now he spoke very little. Many complicated thoughts suddenly disappeared at this moment, and he just looked at the battlefield intently.The Ming army's baggage train was very large, and it was arranged on the ground in the shape of a long dragon, stretching very long, with no end in sight, as if it divided the entire land into two sides. The long dragon was filled with smoke, and the crowd in the distance was hazy. There might be 20,000 or 30,000 people, or 30,000 or 40,000 people. Adai Khan could not estimate it jus

Along the continuous mountainous area that was high in the west and low in the east, the Mongolian cavalry found a camp on the second day. It was the destroyed camp.Ashari followed her elder brother's Asut cavalry and arrived here. She saw a charred and messy scene. The wood on the tents and vehicles had not yet burned out, and smoke was curling in the embers. The air was filled with a special smell of burnt meat, but she didn't know whether it was cattle, sheep, or human corpses in the ashes.Many of the survivors were women, who were dirty and black, with dull faces, searching the abandoned camp, seemingly trying to find the remaining useful things. The Ming army probably thought that women could not fight, so they did not kill them.Asari wore a black headscarf under her copper hat, revealing only a pair of deep eyes. She rode slowly along the abandoned camp. A hoarse cry made her look sideways, and she saw a woman sitting on the ground, holding the body

The sky gradually darkened and the lights came on. Gao Xu held Miao Jin's hand and followed the crowd into the concert hall.People were all dressed up, especially women, who were all dressed up. Some wore traditional clothes such as ruqun or aoqun, while others were dressed in modern fashion. Each figure seemed to be wandering between the classical and the modern.Among them there are many foreigners, probably all of whom came to Taicang to attend international conferences.In terms of fun, people might prefer to watch a movie rather than enjoy such pure music. However, there were still many listeners tonight, and the auditorium gradually filled up.Perhaps some of them value the rarity of concerts and do not attend them often, while others simply value their style.Gao Xu's main happiness comes from Miao Jin's company. Imagine if he came alone or with someone unrelated, his feelings would be much worse. He is willing to be with Miao Jin and exp

There were long commercials playing on TV, but no one changed the channel.Miao Jin was doing chores and preparing ingredients for lunch. Gao Xu began to check his various instruments, which were all measuring tools he had collected a while ago.There is a ray detector, which, according to the manual, can detect radiation, including ultraviolet light, laser and other electromagnetic waves. There is a torsion balance experimental device, which can measure the gravitational constant. And an air measuring instrument.There were also some uncommon small devices. In short, except for the large instruments that were difficult to carry, he tried his best to buy all the instruments that could test general constants.Miao Jin would occasionally look over here curiously, but before she asked, she might have guessed what Gao Xu was going to do.Gao Xu would tell her clearly as long as she asked. Because when he was going to look for the cave in Huangshan, h

Gao Xu usually doesn't like watching TV. But today, when Miao Jin was watching TV in the living room, he was gradually attracted by the TV program, so he stopped what he was doing and sat next to Miao Jin.There was a studio on the TV screen, with two hosts, a man and a woman, talking about the animation "Zootopia" like a crosstalk. It was neither news nor entertainment, but a show that mocked reality.Miao Jin saw Gao Xu sitting over and said, "This TV station should be more inclined to the left-wing viewpoint."Gao Xu asked, "Why haven't I heard of the distinction between left and right wings?"Miao Jin said, "It is originally an imported product. That is how foreigners describe Ming Dynasty politics. There is no clear distinction between left and right in China. So we generally don't use such words. It is normal that we don't hear them normally."She glanced at Gao Xu and continued, "This classification first appeared in the parliament during

Gao Xu's drama project has less than half the investment of the animation project, with a total investment of about 40 million yen for 15 episodes; the profit expectations are also completely incomparable to those of animated films. As Wang Siqi and most people believe, the fastest way to make money is still the movie box office.But Gao Xu has invested more energy in costume dramas.The crew built a filming site in the Western Regions. From 509 to the first half of 510, a production period of less than a year, Gao Xu flew twice to personally observe the filming site. His subordinate Sun Jing also stayed in the Western Regions for a long time, passing various information back to Taicang.A large media company in Taicang has signed an exclusive premiere agreement with Dream Incubation Studio.The terms are a bit complicated, but the key is to adopt a cooperation model with floating copyright fees. When the series is almost finished, a pay TV station und

The glass window on the outer wall is located in the east direction, so the sunlight cannot enter the studio in the afternoon. Therefore, Gao Xu often has a slight illusion that it seems to be later than the actual time.At this moment, the phone in his coat pocket rang. Gao Xu's phone rarely received calls because he had set the Do Not Disturb function, so no calls could be received from numbers that were not saved. He took it out and saw that it was a person who he did not contact often but had saved the number a long time ago, Sun Jing.Gao Xu stood up from his desk, walked to the corner by the glass window, glanced at Wang Cheng not far away, and answered the phone.Sun Jing's voice asked, "Are you still busy with work?"Gao Xu said, "Yes, I am working on two projects at the same time, so I am a little busy. How is Mr. Sun doing recently?"Sun Jing, "Very boring. I don't have to go to work, but I've been idle for so long that I feel like I'm
Game of the Throne Chapter 1062 Chicken with Rice
This was the second time Gao Xu and Xiao Yu had a meal together. Last time they were at the company cafeteria, and today they were at a roadside fast food restaurant.After finishing work at the agency, Gao Xu drove off the main road and found a parking space. Then he randomly found a restaurant where he could eat and walked in with Xiao Yu.It was very lively inside, with all kinds of customers, including well-dressed office workers and some homely citizens, men, women, young and old, making a big noise in the room, mixed with the loud shouts of the shop assistants passing on information. Although the air conditioner was on, the shop was open and there were many people, so it was still very hot inside.There were several dishes to choose from, all of which were simple and convenient. Gao Xu and Xiao Yu gave up on the braised pork intestines with radish, and roast duck was too greasy, so they chose roast chicken.The roasted chicken skin was cut into p

After many twists and turns, Gao Xu finally contacted the director named Ma Xuan.Ma Xuan has an account on the Internet where he posts some career news. Gao Xu's assistant Yu Ni left messages and sent messages, but it took several days for her to get a response. Gao Xu came to the hall and looked through the information records on Yu Ni's computer."He doesn't seem very proactive." Yu Ni said.Gao Xu said , "You claim to be the assistant of the investor of "Dream Seekers", but he may not believe you. If our studio also has such a certified account, it may save some trouble."At this time, Shidai Heng walked by and greeted him, "Mr. Liu."Gao Xu nodded and said, "We are trying to contact Ma Xuan, the director you recommended."Dai Heng came over and said, "He should have received a lot of similar messages. And there is indeed some false information on the Internet. For the purpose of advertising, people may lie about their identities, which

The people who work here, including Dai Heng who has only been here a few days, seem to have gotten used to the environment.The studio was in good condition. The morning sun shone in through the French windows, and the room was clean and tidy. In addition to the solid wood desk and bookshelf, and a full range of domestic electrical appliances (Made in China products are more expensive), there were also comfortable leather chairs.Gao Xu was in Xiao Deng's office at the moment, sitting on one of the leather chairs, holding a tablet and reading the text he had just copied from Xiao Deng's computer. Of course, he couldn't help but listen to the sound of her keyboard at the same time.He put down the tablet, picked up the cup next to him, and found it was empty. So he stood up and walked to the water dispenser, filled up half a cup of hot water, then took a tea bag and put it in the cup to soak for more than ten seconds, then took it out and put it next to him.

The next screenwriter who came to the studio for an interview was named Dai Heng, who should be a relatively unknown person.Gao Xu looked out from the glass wall and when he saw Dai Heng, he immediately guessed that this person was probably not married yet. Dai Heng was wearing a brand new suit, a white shirt with a small cross collar, and a pair of casual leather shoes that didn't match. The most unpleasant thing about Dai Heng was his long hair, but unlike the image of Ekin Cheng, Gao Xu felt at first glance that Dai Heng was not suitable for that hairstyle. Some hairstyles look good, but they are picky about the face.But these are not problems. Now that the people have arrived, Gao Xu needs to get to know them a little bit.Gao Xu pressed the phone on the desk, "Xiao Yu, ask him to come to the office to meet.""Okay." Xiao Yu said into the phone outside, his voice coming from the desk inside.Dai Heng came in from the door with a bag on his
