"To be honest, brothers, everyone in the palace today also saw that the gifts given by the prince and princess were deeply loved by the Queen Mother."
"So, His Majesty plans to ask the prince to take a group of princes to visit this workshop."
"But the prince is generous and kind, thinking that in addition to his uncles, there are other ministers of the Ming Dynasty who have come all the way to the capital."
"So I decided to invite some people to participate in this incense tasting conference!"
Zhang Mao described the incident in a vivid and vivid way, which made people feel that it was very real.
As expected, Duke Cheng Zhu Fu glanced at everyone, frowned and said, "Old Zhang, since the prince invited me, we must go!"
Xu Yongning nodded, "Lao Zhu is right, but the prince did not invite me to wait, so it seems inappropriate to go there rashly?"
"Hey, this is wrong!"
Zhang Mao interrupted Xu Yongning with a smile and waved his hand, and continued: "You guys don't know something. The prince has asked his consort Chen Ziyu to come and say hello to me and ask me to invite you all to come!"
"That's good. Then I'll go to the appointment on time tomorrow!"
Everyone smiled and agreed.
Seeing this situation, Zhang Mao's old face turned into a chrysanthemum smile, he was extremely proud, and after a while he said something mysteriously.
"Everyone, please bring more money when the time comes!"
"Why?"
Xu Yongning was a little confused and asked back.
"Old Xu, you are so smart and confused for a moment! I guess that tomorrow's incense tasting meeting must be related to today's gifts. Even the Queen Mother has said that if we don't buy some of them, wouldn't we be disrespectful to the Queen Mother? ?”
As soon as Zhang Mao finished speaking, the two brothers Zhu Fu, Xu Yongning and Xu Ren looked at Zhang Mao with admiration!
They are all Dukes of the Kingdom. No wonder the British Duke is a popular person in front of His Majesty. This ability to see into people's hearts is enough for the three of them to learn for a lifetime!
----------------------------------------
Chen Ziyu rubbed his sore waist, breathed a long sigh of relief, and said with a smile to Zhu Houzhao beside him:
"Your Highness, the arrangements are finally ready!"
"Old Chen, it's really yours! I have never seen such an arrangement before!"
After Wang Cheng and Yang Huan bought the materials, Chen Ziyu ordered everyone in the workshop who had nothing to do to help set up the place.
He took the drawings he had drawn and acted as the commander-in-chief in an orderly manner.
This scene made Zhu Houzhao, who had been following him, fall to the ground in admiration.
The entire venue is set up with four areas: A, B, C and D, arranged in steps from front to back to ensure that people in the front row will not block people in the back row.
In addition, each position was written on paper with the title and name.
For example, the number one in area A is Zhu Youqi, the king of Xing, and the number one in area B is Xu Yongning, the Duke of Dingguo.
Following in order are the Marquis and Earl.
There is a small table next to each seat, and some fruit snacks and tea will be arranged for everyone!
As for the other ministers in the DPRK, Chen Ziyu did not invite any of them. After all, ministers and nobles are two groups. As the emperor, he naturally does not want these two groups to get too close.
So in order to avoid suspicion, we can only arrange it this way.
This is why those ambitious princes who want to rebel only dare to contact the ministers of the DPRK and China in private!
On the stage, a huge banner was pulled out that read "Xijiao Workshop's First Incense Tasting Conference"!
Just this banner alone made Zhu Houzhao's eyes widen with shock!
I have been asking Chen Ziyu how he came up with it!
With this first session, we can continue to hold the second and third sessions in the future... endless money-making!
"Old Chen, who will be the master of ceremonies tomorrow? Could it be that you come in person?"
Zhu Houzhao seemed to have remembered something and stared at the stage and said thoughtfully.
Chen Ziyu raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said mysteriously: "Your Highness, my identity is inappropriate!"
"You are not suitable? Do you want me to come?"
Zhu Houzhao asked subconsciously, but a look of eagerness appeared on his face.
Chen Ziyu shook his head like a rattle, "As a prince, His Highness is naturally even more inappropriate!"
"Who is that?"
"he!"
Chen Ziyu stretched out his finger and pointed at a figure not far away!
Zhu Houzhao looked in the direction Chen Ziyu pointed, and was dumbfounded. He said in confusion: "Old Chen, stop joking. Liu Jin is just a slave. He can do nothing but serve people! He can be a good master of ceremonies." thing?"
"Your Highness, you don't understand Eunuch Liu very well. He is better than anyone else!"
"I am very puzzled as to why you have always looked upon Liu Jin with admiration. As for Gu Dayong and others, I don't see you treating them differently!"
"Because there is only one eunuch in history who can be called the 'Emperor'!" However, Chen Ziyu just said these words secretly in his heart and did not dare to say them out.
He simply made up a reason: "Eunuch Liu has participated in the construction of the workshop from the beginning. His knowledge of soap, perfume, and cod liver oil is second only to His Highness and his ministers!"
Zhu Houzhao thought for a moment and felt that what Chen Ziyu said did make sense. In terms of familiarity with these objects, Liu Jin might know them better than himself.
In terms of status, as the prince's personal companion, it is appropriate to deal with these princes and princes.
So Zhu Houzhao yelled at Liu Jin.
Liu Jin turned her head and saw the prince calling her. She quickly dropped her work and ran towards the villain.
"Your Highness, do you call me slave?"
"I'm not looking for you, it's Lao Chen who's looking for you!" Zhu Houzhao pointed at Chen Ziyu.
Ever since he was beaten up by Chen Ziyu last time, Liu Jin had an inexplicable fear of Chen Ziyu.
I always felt that the way Chen Ziyu looked at him had a special meaning, as if he could penetrate his inner thoughts.
Liu Jin cupped her hands towards Chen Ziyu and said with a flattering smile, "I wonder why Captain Chen is looking for a slave?"
Chen Ziyu took out the manuscript he had prepared long ago and handed it to him.
"Captain Chen, what is this?" Liu Jin didn't know why he took it and asked.
"Tomorrow, you will be the master of ceremony and introduce these products in the workshop to everyone! This is the manuscript prepared by Captain Ben. After you return to the palace, you can carefully consider it and find a few young eunuchs to practice it in advance!"
"Ah?" Liu Jin suddenly had a look of pig liver color on his face. He quickly waved his hands and shook his head and said: "Your Highness, Captain, this...how can this servant know this? If I mess up the matter for you, wouldn't it be a death penalty!"
Zhu Houzhao looked at Liu Jin's useless appearance and felt that he had lost all his face, and he suddenly became angry.
Moreover, Zhu Houzhao also figured it out, this matter really belongs to Liu Jin!
Immediately, he kicked Liu Jin on the thigh and roared: "Slave dog, this won't work, that won't work. Believe it or not, I will let you die now!"
