What made Xiao Letian even more unexpected was that at the end of the narrow gate, Zhu Bao didn't know how he got the specific size data of the battleship, but he could actually build three huge colorful sheds!
The colorful shed with a bamboo and wood frame is covered with silks, silk flowers and fresh flowers. In addition, there are couplets and plaques written by famous local scholars in praise!
It is autumn now, and the flowers are still blooming. There are at least 40,000 to 50,000 flowers used on this colorful shed!
Three colorful pavilions stood on top of the sky, and there were not only 60,000 but 70,000 people around to bow down and welcome him. This scene was spectacular, and it was no worse than welcoming Qianlong to the south of the Yangtze River!
The place closest to the Zhakou River has been rolled out with a red carpet. The wealthy people, landlords, squires, and scholars in Jining Prefecture are all gathered here to welcome the arrival of the head of state!
"Fuck! Is this Zhu Bao such a big deal? I'm afraid this scene can't be won without a hundred thousand taels, right?" Sheng Jiujie said softly on the stern of the boat.
One hundred thousand taels? This welcome ceremony cost a total of 180,000 taels of silver. Not to mention other things, the people who came to welcome each of them had to be given a bushel of millet!
The cost of this colorful shed is only twenty-five thousand!
Xiao Letian's face turned livid, but he couldn't get angry in front of so many people. He could only pretend to be stupid on the deck, waving to the welcoming officials and gentry people, in exchange for a roaring tsunami of long live. Voice!
The battleship slowly passed through the Zaolin Gate. The mighty steel beast shocked the hearts of the entire Jining government officials and people. Many people have never had any idea about the Chinese people. Many small landowners and ordinary people regard the stories of the Chinese people as legends!
But today, the Chinese finally opened their eyes in this way. They had never seen such a huge iron guy occupying the entire canal channel, slowly pressing over it like a mountain!
This kind of spiritual shock cannot be exaggerated by a storyteller!
The rumor circulating among the people that the Chinese are invincible is most vividly reflected here and has been confirmed!
Of course Zhu Bao had to come to greet him as soon as possible, but just when he wanted to board the ship to pay his respects to his uncle, he found that the warship showed no signs of slowing down at all. After passing the Zaolin Gate, it headed north all the way to the Jining Prefecture Pier!
"It's broken! Could it be that the flattery was wrong? It hit the horse's hoof...hurry up and prepare the horse and follow him all the way back to Fucheng!"
After passing the Zaolin Gate, we came to the most prosperous area of Jining Prefecture. The warships entered the spacious canal. There were groups of three, five, and dozens of people watching the excitement on both sides of the river!
People looked at the three steel monsters on the canal with shrinking hands and exclaimed from time to time!
On the river embankment, Zhu Bao, who was sweating profusely, was riding his horse with the officers to follow him, while Xiao Letian on the deck was too lazy to pay attention to him!
Zaolin Gate is not far away from Jining City. Within an hour's journey, we can see the busy and bustling dock. In the distance is the bustling city background. However, in the eyes of the Chinese people who have seen the big world, the scale of this city is really huge. Poor little one!
A small town with a permanent population of no more than 40,000 to 50,000 people, with adobe city walls, actually calls itself a city. What a joke!
However, in this shabby and backward world, a ball of fire suddenly hit Xiao Letian's heart!
Fuhui was wearing a bright red brocade cheongsam, and the boy behind him was holding a red satin parasol. The mistress of the Xiao family had been standing on the dock with a group of servants for two and a half hours, and there were even several The famous maid was so tired that she suffered from dehydration and heat stroke!
But no matter how tired she was, Fuhui didn't complain at all, she just waited here quietly!
Xiao Letian's heart suddenly skipped a beat. The scene when he first saw Fuhui a long time ago resurfaced. It was before the Chinese New Year, when he went to the capital to make a name for himself after writing a book in Yixian County!
In the cold winter, Fu Hui was wearing a bright red brocade cotton jacket, welcoming her at the gate and sending her subordinates to conduct pre-holiday cleaning!
Against the backdrop of the thin snow in Sijiucheng, the bright red at the door is still fresh in my memory!
I don’t know why, but after seeing Fu Hui, Huniu’s resentment suddenly dissipated a lot. She even took half a step back unconsciously, letting Xiao Letian be in the front!
Wuwuwu... The sound of the whistle alarmed the birds throughout Jining City, and the battleship slowly docked at the dock!
Xiao Letian stepped off the battleship and looked at Fuhui. The couple's eyes met. Fuhui's way of expressing emotions was different from Huniu's!
Huniu ran away wildly, even if there was a sea in front of her, she was so scared that Xiao Letian jumped out of the boat to catch him!
Fu Hui, on the other hand, was not the case. He was dressed in bright red, took out a full set of imperial edicts, took his wives, concubines and servants, and followed the most traditional etiquette to welcome the victorious master back!
Fuhui bowed down and saluted, Fuhui said calmly, "The master has returned victorious... Please concubine Rong to propose a toast, take off your armor, and ask the master to change his clothes..."
There was already a young boy kneeling on the ground holding a tray with both hands, a golden pot and a jade cup. Fu Hui filled the cup with wine, knelt on the ground and said, "Toast to the master!"
Hula la, Ping'er, Qingwen, Xiren and a kind of maidservant were behind. Everyone who came from the old house knelt down. Even Zhu Bao, who had just run in the corner and was sweating profusely, knelt down with a frown. In the corner!
He deserves to kowtow to his uncle. Even if the Yushitai knew about this, he would not be impeached!
There were 30,000 to 50,000 Jining people watching the ceremony at the pier. They were all shocked when they saw this scene. Someone who was smart quickly grabbed the people around him and whispered, "Kneel down, kneel down..."
"In ancient times, when generals came home after winning a battle, they would have a toast and remove their armor... This is a real old rule, and what the eldest lady presented was an ancient ceremony!"
"The head of state went to Europa and won such a big victory, which made us feel proud and proud. He has to kneel down no matter what! Kneel down quickly!"
Huniu felt so annoyed that she also walked to the eldest lady and knelt down, "Why didn't I think of this?" Why don't I understand these etiquettes? '
Xiao Letian could feel the uncontrollable emotions in Fu Hui's heart. The glass of wine was trembling and half of it had been spilled! He didn't reach out to take the glass of wine, but held Fu Hui's cold hand with both hands!
Fu Hui trembled and almost collapsed to the ground, but Xiao Letian said with great warmth, "Actually, I should respect you! You are the one who works the hardest!"
"No matter how great my achievements are, you will always have a share of them!"
"Thank you! Help me protect this... home!"
A heart-warming word immediately pierced all Fu Hui's pretense of being strong. She could hear Xiao Letian's subtext. She knew that her hard work was not in vain. This man still had a conscience!
I couldn't hold back the tears anymore, and my delicate makeup was washed away!
Xiao Letian held the cup with one hand, and with the other he raised his head and raised his head to get a glass of wine. "I drank this glass of wine. Master, I am back..."
The girls in the back house couldn't stand such emotional teasing. Even Little Pepper Qingwen was so aggrieved that she cried!
Xiao Letian had no choice but to pull them up one by one, "Don't kneel, don't kneel... Didn't you say you want to take off my armor? I'm not wearing any armor! What on earth are you taking off?"
Qingwen pinched Xiao Letian's waist hard and said, "There is no armor and a military uniform! You'd better keep your Chinese marshal's dress in the closet! We have prepared a good mandarin jacket for you, the lightest one." !”
"Where... are you taking off your clothes?" Xiao Letian deliberately made these three words a long sound, which made all the girls turn red in shame and stomp their feet wisely.
