Chapter 54 Mirror Mirror Who is the most handsome person in the world
Finally, the opening day arrived. Emperor Kangxi let me out of the Imperial Study Room early in the morning. I ran home happily. Xiaolian had already taken out a custom-made outfit for me a few days ago and was waiting for me to put it on.
After getting dressed, I saw Xiaolian's face was rosy and she looked at me a little strangely. I couldn't help but go to the mirror and take a look. But I saw the young man in the mirror, wearing a white-brimmed green hat, a Hetian jade inlaid on the front, and a blue suit.
The long gown has a brocade waistband, a Zigang pendant hanging on it, and white low black boots on the feet, showing an indescribable spirit. As the saying goes, if a woman wants to be pretty, she should be filial; if a man wants to be pretty, he should be pure.
Pan An also competed, no wonder Xiaolian was fascinated by it. If I had known that I would be so handsome after just messing around, how could I still wear the eunuch clothes that no one wants to see when I leave the palace every day. In order to enhance the effect
, I took another Yubi folding fan that I had boiled from Kangxi, and shook it gently. Ha, isn’t this a handsome young man?
A hired two-person sedan had been parked outside the door. I stepped into the sedan, said goodbye to Xiao Lian who was reluctant to leave, and rushed to the restaurant. Xiao Lian's business was really unfair, because she was a female prostitute, and her business was so open.
You can't go to big things in person, you can only watch me eagerly as I go about the fun.
When I arrived at the restaurant, I never thought that Prince Kang had already arrived a step ahead of me. He was standing in front of the door with a full belly. I hurriedly ran over and said with a smile: "Old Prince, you came here early in the morning to get busy. Which song are you singing?"
Ah." Prince Kang smiled and said: "The emperor can't live without you. I'm afraid you won't be able to make it, so I came to greet you first." I was moved in my heart and said: "Your Majesty, can you just arrange someone to do it?
That's it, you're so busy, don't miss your business." Prince Kang spat and cursed: "Bullshit, the emperor only gave me such a small errand, and I can finish it with my eyes closed. I, an old man, spend the whole day
I'm almost dead. If you don't let me liven things up, why don't you kill me?" After saying that, we both laughed at the same time.
Seeing him directing Zhang Debiao and his gang at the front door, I went inside to take a look. Li Yapeng had already decorated the restaurant with a festive atmosphere, and all the female waiters were neatly dressed and standing everywhere, ready to welcome guests.
I walked around upstairs and downstairs, feeling very satisfied, and heard the whispers of the waiters from time to time.
"Is this Eunuch Gui? He looks so good dressed up."
"Yes, it's a pity that he is a eunuch."
"Is it possible that your little girl also has a crush on him?"
"Bah, no matter what you say, you must have fallen in love with him."
I was very excited when I heard that, and kept wandering in front of them upstairs and downstairs to satisfy my modesty to the greatest extent. When I went downstairs for the third time, I suddenly met a woman on the stairs. She was dressed in a different way.
The clothes of the other waiters were bright red, but her clothes were the same style, but they were purple-red. If you look closely, you can see that it is Nashan, the daughter of Obei. Nashan still looked at me with a bad look, and she was still vicious. I
Not daring to look at her, he lowered his head and walked past her.
I went downstairs to find Li Yapeng and asked him about the situation. Li Yapeng said: "A few days ago, Master, you told me to treat her well. Apart from being unreasonable to Master, this girl is really a good hand and learns things very quickly.
She is savvy, and all the girls listen to her, so I promoted her to the position of headmistress." I didn't understand, so I asked him what he meant by headmistress, and Li Yapeng said this name
It was him who named me, which means the head girl. I laughed loudly and said, "You are quite interesting. You can also make up an official name for yourself. It doesn't sound nice and is easy to cause taboos, so I will call you the foreman."
Come on, you can also call me the lobby manager." Li Yapeng said: "I am still knowledgeable and can come up with two such good names. I thought about the name for a whole night. Since the lobby manager is so impressive, I will call her her.
Lobby manager."
Seeing that it was almost time and the guests had arrived one after another, I entered a private room under Li Yapeng's arrangement. In addition to a huge mahogany dining table, this private room also had a stage. This kind of stage with a stage
There are only four rooms in the entire restaurant, and this one is the largest. According to Li Yapeng, according to Prince Kang's instructions, the people in this room will be Prince Naylor later. It seems that Prince Kang is making a lot of noise.
We need to bring all their relatives over.
Sure enough, after a while, Prince Yu Fuquan, Prince Gong Chang Ning, Prince Chun Longxi, Fu Guo Gong Ye Bushu, Zhen Guo Gong Gao Sai, Chang Shu, Zhen Guo General Tao Sai, etc., under the dignified and generous guidance of the female hall, came one after another.
Entering the house, everyone saw me and exchanged greetings. At this time, Nashan led the troupe in through the side door. As soon as the gong sounded, a opera started singing on the stage. Once the old prince was satisfied with this, he sat down and watched.
Prince Yu and Prince Gong were not too old and had a good relationship with me. They took me to the flower stand and watched the excitement downstairs. Prince Nakang stood on the doorstep and greeted the officials who came to celebrate.
, none of the guests were empty-handed, there were servants carrying congratulatory gifts, and some were giving gifts directly. Li Yapeng was holding a name card at the side and announcing the official's name and gift list at the throat. Across the street, there were many green shops with purple and gold roofs parked.
This big sedan, if it were placed in my era, it would definitely be a Mercedes-Benz and a BMW. Both sides of the road were crowded with people watching the fun. Zhang Debiao led the warriors who were even more majestic, maintaining the order of the scene, and would stand from time to time.
Passers-by who got too close were kicked out all the way.
When all the guests waiting to be invited were almost here, Prince Kang loudly announced that the auspicious time had arrived and celebrated with the unveiling. Suddenly, firecrackers were fired, gongs and drums were noisy, and there were dragon and lion dances and acrobatic wrestling on the street in front of the store. It was very lively. The room was very lively.
When the old princes heard the commotion, they walked up to the flower stand one after another. Looking at the other flower stands in the restaurant, they were also filled with officials who came to congratulate them. Many people couldn't get enough of it and ran directly downstairs to join in the fun. Several princes around them looked at it.
The excitement was still stirring, and he said: "This King Kang doesn't know what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd. He has opened a business himself. There are not many shops under his name. How can he treat guests and celebrate with such great fanfare as this time?" Another said: "
I guess I was so bored all day that I spent the whole shop looking for fun." It seems that not everyone knows that I own this restaurant, so they couldn't help but secretly feel happy.
There was a lot of excitement downstairs. The door opened here and Nashan led a group of girls to serve the food in a flowing manner. I asked everyone to sit down and start the banquet. Everyone sat down one after another. On the stage, Allegro Allegro was recited, and several princes shouted with joy.
, a group of people started drinking immediately. I thought that I couldn't always let Prince Kang work downstairs. After all, he was helping me, and it would be too rude if I couldn't even get a meal, so I excused myself and went downstairs.
Prince Kang was having so much fun that he didn't even want to go up. He held a plate of silver in his hand and would throw out one or two ingots from time to time to reward the acrobatic crowd. I also found it interesting and hurriedly took out two thousand taels of silver notes and gave them to him.
Li Yapeng went to exchange money, but Prince Kang stopped him and said, "I have brought more than twenty plates here, which is enough for us to throw away." He waved his hand and ordered his servants to take a plate and put it in my hand.
I was not polite to him, so I grabbed a handful in my hand and threw it out. Suddenly there was a commotion below. Dozens of people bent down to pick it up. Some people were pushed down and their faces were rubbed with dirt. Look at us.
I laughed out loud. Suddenly I had an idea and said to Prince Kang: "Your Majesty, why don't you go into the room and throw it down from upstairs? Wouldn't it be more interesting?" Prince Kang said happily: "What a great idea. Go upstairs.
You can throw it further up the stairs." The orderer took the silver plate and turned around and went upstairs.
Seeing him going upstairs, I had nothing to do outside the door, so I threw out all the money on the plate in my hand, causing a chaos in the audience. I handed the tray to Li Yapeng, turned around and started to go upstairs.
Suddenly, someone squeezed through the crowd, ran up the steps in a few steps, grabbed my arm, and shouted: "Eunuch Gui, stay here." I looked back and saw that it was the eunuch Li Dequan who was going to the study.
When the congratulatory gift came, he couldn't help but be overjoyed. He raised his hands and said, "Eunuch Li, why are you here? Do you have any orders from the emperor?"
Li Dequan looked around, then took my hand and walked out. I saw that his face was a little nervous, and I couldn't help but worry. Could something have happened? Or maybe I made the emperor angry somewhere? He followed closely at once,
Zhang Debiao was very discerning and ran forward and pushed aside the crowd, allowing the two of us to squeeze out.
Li Dequan did not stop and ran directly towards me for more than twenty feet. Then he stopped and said to a young master who was standing with his back to me: "Come back to the master, Eunuch Gui has arrived." I was startled, not knowing that this person was letting me go.
Li Dequan asked who the young master was, but when he turned around and looked at me with a smile, I was immediately shocked.
This person is none other than Aisin Gioro Xuan Ye, the current Holy Emperor. When I saw him, I wanted to prostrate myself. Kangxi raised his hand to stop him and said with a smile: "I am here for a private visit. Please don't give me my identity."
Exposed." I laughed and said: "Your Majesty, you..." Kangxi stopped me in a hurry, looked around, and whispered: "Call me Mr. Love." I saw his artificial fun and couldn't help it.
Zhu burst out laughing. Kangxi said: "What's so funny? I don't look like you?" I said: "It doesn't matter whether you look like me or not. No one on the street would recognize you except those in the restaurant."
Kangxi asked again: "How is it? How many people are here today? What do everyone say?" I said: "There are many people here, and they are all guests invited by Prince Kang. Everyone doesn't know that we are the business, thinking that we are doing the business.
It's Prince Kang's shop." After looking at his face, I added: "I sold one share of the shop to Prince Kang. The old prince is really building momentum." Kangxi laughed and said: "
This Prince Kang, I just told him to take more care of Huafeng Restaurant. I never thought he would work so hard to attract customers for you. It’s really an advantage for you.” Only then did I understand that no wonder Prince Kang was so concerned about the restaurant.
It turned out that he was entrusted by the emperor.

Kangxi said drunkenly: "When it's time to eat, when it's time to drink, I'll put this book in the collection. Dare you dare to say no? Come and see, there are tens of thousands of beauties in the palace, you can look at them but don't touch them!"
