Although Liu Mingqi was a little busy during this period, he did not forget his little friend, Du Lifeng, the prince of Cebu.
As a person who came from a modern society, Liu Mingqi understands people from this small foreign country very well.
They need you to pay them enough attention, not to treat them as outsiders, and at the same time, they need you to show enough strength.
If there are only the first two items, then it is easy to lack authority and be regarded as a bad person. Isn¡¯t this how my Ming Dynasty planted the seeds of disaster in the previous life, causing the land of China to suffer such a tragic disaster hundreds of years later?
If there is only the latter one, it will be like a lighthouse country. When they decline, there will be a good show.
So, our ancestors have told us the method a long time ago.
"Being a person and doing things must be strong and soft at the same time. This is the kingly way."
For Cebu, which is still in the ancient times, there is no need to show off their muscles. The muscles are there for everyone to see.
Everyone knows that the Dakang Dynasty was a highly prosperous and civilized country that people admired. There is no doubt about this.
¡°And it¡¯s not Liu Mingqi¡¯s turn to do things like showing off muscles.
Therefore, he can only adopt a soft policy.
After the Empress Dowager¡¯s birthday, even though everyone in Prince Yu¡¯s palace was busy with disaster relief, and even Prince Yu rarely went to the theater, Liu Mingqi still found time to invite Du Lifeng to his home.
The first time Liu Mingqi was a guest was when Liu Mingqi invited him to drink and have a heart-to-heart talk in her small courtyard.
The second time Liu Mingqi invited his father over, Du Lifeng was so flattered that he almost knelt down - the younger brother of the then Emperor Dakang, such a respected prince, would actually have dinner with him. He never imagined that he would have dinner with him!
Originally, the young man wanted to invite his mother over and treat him to a meal as a family, but considering Du Lifeng's ability to bear it, he decided not to.
It¡¯s not like Du Lifeng doesn¡¯t know etiquette.
After that, he invited Liu Mingqi to have a meal in his house, half of which were dishes made of pumpkin.
Liu Mingqi ate happily and applauded, which also made Du Lifeng feel quite proud.
This is what treating guests to a meal is like. If you eat at the same time and eat politely and gracefully, others will definitely think that you are unhappy.
It means that you have to eat happily and eat almost the same amount of food, so that the host will feel more respectable.
With this kind of back and forth, Liu Mingqi and Du Lifeng have developed a good relationship.
So one day, due to lack of manpower, when he went to Miaoweilou near Daxiangguo Temple to help make rice porridge and steamed buns, he called Du Lifeng.
Liu Mingqi was responsible for cooking the porridge, and Du Lifeng was responsible for adding firewood. Not only did His Highness not feel ashamed, but he cooked with relish.
He sometimes has to light the fire by himself in the country. Cebu is named after a country, but only he knows how his life is going.
" Du Lifeng felt that if His Highness the Prince was still making porridge, and he could be called upon to help, that meant he was looking up to me. As a friend, how could I not help?
So he worked for Liu Mingqi for free, and he did it happily.
After the locusts flew away from the Gyeonggi area and headed towards the Lianghu area, Liu Mingqi knew that the time had come to implement his most important plan.
Since they are friends, Liu Mingqi can go one step further and invite Du Lifeng to visit the flower house.
The young man acted like Wang Zha as soon as he made a move. He directly booked a small courtyard in the Zhuque Tower, one of the four major flower buildings in the capital, and hosted a banquet for Du Lifeng.
The Suzaku Tower is located in the inner city. It occupies directly the former Prime Minister's Mansion. It has five rooms and has been converted into more than 20 large and small courtyards.
"For example, if you spend money in Zhuque Tower, just find a girl to drink tea, chat and sleep, which is already twenty or thirty taels of silver - two or three times more expensive than an ordinary flower tower.
If you want to have a tea party, the consumption will be even more expensive. If you want to play the flute, play the piano, sing and dance to a high level, one hundred and eighty taels is not much.
If you invite the most popular girls, you may not be able to spend two or three hundred taels.
For example, Liu Mingqi's advance payment for this trip reached one hundred taels of silver. He did not invite several courtesans from Zhuque Tower, but a young girl named Meng Xin'er, plus an experienced and popular Girl little pearl.
Meng Xin'er is only fifteen years old this year, one year younger than Liu Mingqi.
&nbs?
Such Meng Xin'er, even in modern times, is still a first-class dancer.
After the song ended, Meng Xin'er, whose face was red from dancing, walked down and looked at Liu Mingqi as if leaning over the side: "How are you, little prince? Is this little girl's dance the best in the world?"
Liu Mingqi smiled.
?? If nothing else, this girl¡¯s self-confidence is really strong.
But when I think about it, how can someone with low self-confidence achieve such an achievement at the age of fifteen?
"Alright."
The young man replied like this.
"hehe!"
Meng Xin'er rolled her eyes at him again, thinking that this guy was really a tough talker.
After she sat down, Liu Mingqi raised the cup and said, "Come on, Xiao Du, let's drink this cup to celebrate that the disaster in the Gyeonggi area is now gone."
"please!"
Du Lifeng quickly picked up the wine glass, drank it down, and praised: "Your Highness, I have been coming to Dakang for several years, but this is the first time I have seen a person like you who is dedicated to public service! Du Lifeng is so proud of you. Proud to have you as a friend!¡±
A person with noble character may be disliked by many people, but even enemies will admire his character.
Take Liu Mingqi as an example, who mentioned Miaoweilou¡¯s recent disaster relief measures and didn¡¯t give a thumbs up?
Especially now that Princess Yu has ordered Tian Rong and the others to spread the news, saying that Prince Yu came up with this disaster relief idea and method, it has attracted countless people's attention.
Princess Yu is building momentum for her son. She and Prince Yu are already almost middle-aged. No matter how much glory they get, it is of no use. Her son is just sixteen years old. He should stand on this wonderful stage in the world. .
Du Lifeng mentioned it, and Little Pearl next to him chuckled and raised his glass: "Little Prince, Prince Du is right, Nunu also proposes a toast to you! If only when my hometown encountered a disaster, I would have had you. OK¡¡"
Liu Mingqi saw the melancholy flashing in her eyes, and raised her glass from afar, "Miss Pearl, every step of your life is God's arrangement. As long as you don't give up and keep working hard, won't it be better in the future?"
"Gee, little prince, you are really good at talking!" Little Pearl drank the wine in her glass, her eyes sparkling with admiration.
Meng Xin'er, who was beside Liu Mingqi, snorted coldly, but with a slight smile on her face: "What the young prince said is so good, then why don't you compose a poem to express your mood at this time?"
"hehe!"
Liu Mingqi imitated Meng Xin'er's tone just now, ignored her, and started talking to Du Lifeng opposite.
" Du Lifeng's literary quality is not high. After all, he comes from a small overseas island country and has only learned Chinese for two or three years. It is not easy to speak Dakang dialect proficiently. It is simply too difficult for him to be proficient in poetry and poetry.
Therefore, what Liu Mingqi talked about with him were all the things in the market, with some rumors about ghosts and ghosts added in.
" Stories like this, as a modern person, Liu Mingqi is really easy to pick up. When he tells a few short jokes, Du Lifeng sometimes laughs, sometimes exclaims, and his emotions are completely out of his control.
Meng Xin'er was still thinking about how to make Liu Mingqi submit at first, but she became fascinated while listening.
A few people were drinking and talking and laughing, and time passed quickly.
When Little Pearl brought the drunk Du Lifeng back to her room, Liu Mingqi also stood up and said goodbye to Meng Xin'er.
"Miss Xin'er." The young man asked slightly drunkenly: "Why do you want me to write you poems?"
"I want to be famous!" Meng Xin'er also drank some wine, so she said smoothly: "Do you think I'm worse than Qiu Xiang?"
¡°My dear, this girl is so brave. She points her sword at the most beautiful and talented woman in the capital right from the start.
"Everyone has their own preferences in terms of appearance." Liu Mingqi said thoughtfully: "But you can't take the path that Miss Qiu Xiang took now Look at just now, you didn't even know how to liven up the atmosphere, you just knew it was a joke. You have a bad temper. If Qiu Xiang were like you, how could she be sought after by so many talented people? "
"You mean I have a bad temper?" Meng Xin'er stared.
"You have a bad temper because you don't have enough money in your stomach to control your emotions. If you have a lot of knowledge, it will naturally show up in your temperament." Liu Mingqi smiled, "Think about it carefully! Wait until you really On this special day, I will write you a poem. Well, how about calling it "Guan Meng Auntie Dances with Swords"?"
"roll!"
Meng Xin'er was furious.
