Chapter six hundred and ninth, the good manners were unsuccessful in the end
Liu Mingzhi glanced vaguely at the courtyard next door, and happily followed Sakai Hoshino into the main room.
Sakai Hoshino put the brocade box in his hand on the table and bowed to Liu Dashao with a smile.
"Mr. Liu, please sit down first, and Xingye will make you some tea.
By the way, Mr. Liu, Hoshino bought many kinds of tea on the street when he came back from the palace a few days ago. I wonder, Mr. Liu, what kind of tea do you want to drink?"
"Is there Longjing in the tea?"
"some."
"Then drink Longjing."
"Hey, Hoshino understands. Liu-kun, please wait a moment. Hoshino is going to make tea."
"Yingzhi, now you chat with Mr. Liu for a while, and then go back to your room when mother comes back."
Hua Qiyingzhi placed the brocade box in her hand on the table and nodded obediently to Sakai Hoshino.
"Mother, Yingzhi knows."
After Sakai Hoshino walked out of the room with the teapot, Hua Qiyingzhi sat down on the chair opposite Young Master Liu with some effort.
After Hua Qiyingzhi sat upright, her bright and bright eyes looked curiously at Liu Mingzhi, who was sitting opposite and looking at her with a faint smile.
"Sir, are you His Majesty the Emperor of Dalong?"
When Liu Mingzhi heard the little girl's curious words, he closed the folding fan in his hand and put it on the table with a smile.
"Yes, sir, I am the emperor of Dalong."
"Sir, Yingzhi heard that my mother kept calling you Mr. Liu, and she also asked Yingzhi to address you as Mr. Liu. So, sir, is your name Liu Mingzhi?"
Hua Qiyingzhi's question was quite bold, that is to say, there were only Young Master Liu and the others in the room. If there was another Da Long present, he would probably have scolded this little girl.
It is not completely forbidden to call the emperor by his first name in Dalong, but there are certain things to pay attention to when calling the emperor by his first name.
If you call Mr. Liu by his first name like Hua Qiyingzhi, you will at least get scolded, even if you won't be severely punished.
However, there are only Young Master Liu and the others in the room now. If Young Master Liu doesn't mind, it doesn't matter how many times Hua Qiyingzhi shouts.
Liu Mingzhi saw the little girl's eyes full of curiosity. She leaned happily on the chair and gently turned the jade ring on her thumb thoughtfully.
"Yes, sir's name is indeed Liu Mingzhi, what's the matter? Have you ever heard of sir's name, Yingzhi?"
"Yeah, yeah, Yingzhi has heard your name, sir, more than once."
"Really? Then tell me sir, Sakurazhi, where have you heard his name before?"
Hua Qiyingzhi hesitated for a moment, leaning forward and looking out of the room.
"Sir, when Sakurazhi was in Japan, she heard her uncle and mother often mention your name. This time when we came to Dalong by boat, my mother and brother Sakai Ka even said it every two days.
Your name sir.
Over time, Yingzhi listened more and could not help but write down your name, sir.
When Yingzhi was bored, she asked her mother, sir, who are you? Why does she always take the trouble to say your name? However, her mother told Mr. Yingzhi that you are His Majesty the Emperor of Dalong.
But when Yingzhi also called your name, sir, her mother immediately turned against her, and without any explanation, she put Yingzhi on her legs and spanked her.
The beating was very painful.
Mother told Yingzhi that she must not say this name after arriving at Dalong, otherwise she would spank Yingzhi hard again.
Yingzhi didn't know why, so Yingzhi was particularly curious, why couldn't Yingzhi say your name, sir? Isn't the name just for saying something?"
Young Master Liu couldn't help but chuckle a few times when he heard Hua Qi Yingzhi's questioning words. He looked at the depressed and curious expression on her pink little face and sighed with a smile.
Liu Mingzhi knew that this little girl was a Japanese, but he still couldn't feel any disgust towards her.
This little girl is indeed a thoughtful girl.
It's a pity that she was born in the wrong place. It would be great if this girl was a big dragon girl!
Liu Mingzhi pondered to himself for a moment, then folded his hands and placed them on the table.
"Yingzhi, you are right, the name is indeed meant to be spoken.
But in Dalong, we have completely different etiquette and customs from your Japanese country, that is, the younger generation cannot call the elders by their first names, otherwise they will be punished.
Sir and your mother are old friends, so sir, I am your elder, Sakurazhi.
So Sakurazhi, you can't call sir by his first name, that would be impolite."
"Is that all?"
"Yes, what did your mother tell you?"
"Yingzhi's mother told Yingzhi, sir, you are the Emperor of the Great Dragon Celestial Dynasty, and Yingzhi will be punished if he calls you by your first name.
Sir, what does His Majesty, the Emperor of Dalong, do? Why is Sakurazhi punished as soon as he says your name?"
"Didn't your mother tell you?"
"I told you, I told you, but Sakurazhi still doesn't quite understand?"
"Tell me what you don't understand, sir, and he will explain it to you."
"My mother only told Yingzhi that Emperor Dalong is a very powerful person, and she didn't say anything else."
"So that's it, sir, you thought your mother had told you everything!
But you can guess his name from your mother calling him Mr. Liu and asking you to call me Mr. Liu, which is already very impressive."
"Really?"
"Of course, sir, I have never seen a girl as smart as you, Sakurazhi!"
"Yingzhi thanks you sir for the compliment, but Yingzhi still has a lot to learn!
Then sir, can you tell Yingzhi what Emperor Dalong does? Why will Yingzhi be punished if he calls you by your name, sir?"
Young Master Liu looked at Hua Qi Yingzhi's serious face, raised his brows and smiled.
"The Emperor of Dalong is just like your mother said, he is a very powerful person."
"Ah? What kind of answer is this? It's no different from what my mother told Yingzhi!"
"Hehehe, Sakurazhi, sir, tell you, this is the most correct answer.
By the way, Yingzhi, since you are so smart and powerful, sir, would you like to ask you a question?"
Hua Qi Yingzhi hesitated for a moment, then tapped her lips with her fingers and nodded gently.
"Okay, I don't know what question you want to ask, sir?"
"Sir, I want to give you a test. Can you write down what your mother, your uncle, and your brother Sakaiga said when they mentioned you, sir?
It's been so long, sir, I guess you can't remember it anymore.
Of course, if you still remember Sakurazhi, it means that you are a very, very smart little girl.
My husband likes smart little girls the most. For a smart girl like Yingzhi, as long as you answer the questions correctly, your husband will give you a reward."
Liu Mingzhi began to seduce the little girl Hua Qiyingzhi, hoping to see if he could get any useful information from her.
When Hua Qiyingzhi heard that there was a reward, her eyes suddenly brightened.
"Sir, what kind of reward is it?"
"Any reward is fine. As long as you answer correctly, Yingzhi, I can give you whatever reward you want, sir..."
Before Young Master Liu finished speaking, Sakai Hoshino's voice suddenly came from outside the door.
"Mr. Liu, Hoshino is back. Why are you and Sakurazhi chatting so happily?"
The look of regret in Young Master Liu's eyes flashed away, he picked up the folding fan and flicked it gently, looking at Hoshino Sakai who had already walked into the room with a smile.
"We didn't have much to talk about. I'm currently studying the culture of this girl, Yingzhi.
I just said that I would give her a reward for answering my question correctly, but before I finished speaking, you came in, has the tea been made?"
Sakai Hoshino put the teapot on the table with a smile, raised his hand and gently patted Hanaki Sakurai's shoulder.
"Yingzhi, you should go back to your room and rest first. Mom has something serious to say to your husband."
"Haiyi, then Sakurazhi will go back to her room first."
After Hua Qiyingzhi said something in Japanese, she turned to Young Master Liu and performed the ritual of a big dragon.
"Sir, Sakurazhi should go back to her room first. You and your mother can talk slowly."
"Okay, when you have time, sir, I will take you Yingzhi to appreciate the scenery of my dragon."
"Thank you, sir. Sakurazhi is resigning."
Sakai Hoshino waited until his daughter left and closed the door. He returned to the table and poured two cups of tea in front of the pot.
"Mr. Liu, please have tea."
Liu Mingzhi smiled and nodded, picked up the tea cup and blew it carefully for a while, took a brief sip and put it back on the table.
"We are the only two people left in the room. Hoshino, you can tell me what you have to say now."
