Chapter 376 The princess just left
Shi Rong's words also aroused the curiosity of several other adults nearby, who all looked at Chao Hong Xiaoduo.
Yes, there are only a handful of foreign speakers in the Fengliang Congress, which is not correct. That was what everyone originally thought, but now there are suddenly two more!
One is a woman from the world, very young, and the other is even more exaggerated, a child who is only seven years old.
From this point of view, it really confirms the saying that what you hear about many things in the world is not necessarily correct and true.
There may be other people who speak foreign languages somewhere they don't know.
Hong Xiaoduo looked at everyone's reaction, smiled and said to Shi Rong: "Who said I would find a husband for him in my own country? Wei Kaiyang's Mr. Yayu, all of you have seen him, here, the one waving. That’s it.”
When everyone heard this, they followed her line of sight and happened to see the person from the foreign envoys wearing Fengliang costume waving in this direction.
"Ms. Hong, you're not talking about the one called Yue, John, are you?" Mo Qiyan asked in disbelief.
Others also looked at Hong Xiaoduo with doubts on their faces. This was impossible. Could she keep the deputy translator of the mission? Be a husband to Wei Shangshu’s grandson?
"Master Mo has a very good memory, it's John." Hong Xiaoduo nodded.
"He just agreed? What conditions did you promise them? No, even if he agreed, would their envoy agree?" Shi Rong asked incomprehensibly.
This is not the case where people from the country can move between different places to do business, teach, and work.
Then John was a Gentile, and he did not come in the name of an individual, but as an envoy representing the country! Apart from anything else, not just anyone can be a member of the mission. Since you can become a member of the mission, how can you be willing to stay here and be a husband to your child?
It would be possible if the emperor promised to give him an official position, or if he was a descendant of the Pope's royal family.
After all, it comes with status and status.
That's right, what can you promise me that is tempting enough to make me stay in a foreign country and become a husband? Other adults are curious too!
"What are the conditions promised? It's nothing more than food, accommodation and training. As for whether their mission can agree to it, that's his business and I don't need to worry about it.
My lords, if nothing happens, we will go back first. Also, since Translator Shi can continue to translate, we will not come to the palace to participate again.
My Lords, I take my leave. "After Hong Xiaoduo finished speaking, Kaiyang and her clasped their fists together to say hello to several adults before boarding the Wei Mansion's carriage.
"Xiaoduo, wait a minute, come over here." Before another carriage not far away arrived, Dong Yuefan's voice holding the window to greet him had already arrived.
The adults looked at Wei Mansion's coachman and rolled their eyes, then resignedly picked up the step stools they had just placed and put them behind the carriage.
Then, looking at Dong Xiang Yao'er who got off the carriage, without even looking at them, he excitedly said to Hong Xiaoduo and Kaiyang, there is a fighting cock in the south of the city.
Seeing Hong Xiaoduo and Kaiyang, both older and younger, without any hesitation, they excitedly got into the carriage of Prime Minister Dong's Mansion and drove away. The expressions of all the adults were a bit hard to describe.
Mr. Wei's only grandson, the grandson who was finally found, is so close to Mr. Dong, a useless youngest son. Aren't Mr. Wei and his son worried at all?
Mr. Dong Xiangye definitely doesn't care. Among his six sons, except for the youngest, the first five are all very promising!
Everyone thought so, but no one said it out loud. "Brother Dong, you didn't even say hello to those adults just now, so I'm not afraid of being said to be arrogant." In the carriage, Hong Xiaoduo pinched a sesame ball, took a bite, and his mouth was full of sweetness.
Dong Yuefan disagreed and said: "I am useless in their eyes. Do you think they will have any change in their opinion of me if I greet them properly?
No, so why should I go through that formality.
Xiaoduo, believe it or not, as soon as we left, they were worried that Xiao Kaiyang would be misled by me, but they were afraid of my father's official position and did not dare to say it openly. ”
Soon we arrived at the cockfighting ground, and Dong Yuefan's friend had already occupied the best viewing position.
It was also the first time for Kaiyang to watch it. Dong Yuefan's personal servant took him to the side to see the cockfighting king who had not yet played.
"When are you leaving? Are you sure? I'll make some preparations and we'll be together then. Although we're not in the same direction, we'll be traveling together for a day." Dong Yuefan asked while helping Hong Xiaoduo pour tea.
"Well, I originally planned to wait until the mission's affairs are over, but it seems that there is no need now. Then Interpreter Shi can translate, and he will be the one to translate this morning. I plan to leave the day after tomorrow, so you don't have to leave in such a hurry. I won't spend more time with you. Your parents, grandmother and old lady?" Hong Xiaoduo asked.
"No, in fact, for them, it would be gratifying for me to go to the military camp early for training and do serious things.
I understand, let’s go together the day after tomorrow, okay? Why didn't you see that boy Mu Rongjing? Does he know that you are leaving the day after tomorrow? "Dong Yuefan remembered and asked.
Hong Xiaoduo shook his head: "I also made a temporary decision when I saw that Shi Yiguan was able to translate."
"Where's that little guy? Does he know?" Dong Yuefan asked in the direction of Kaiyang.
Hong Xiaoduo's eyes fell on Kaiyang, and his expression softened a little: "He knows that I am leaving in the next few days, but he is not sure which day. However, because of your troubles, it is not good for him." It’s a good thing, it turns out it’s not that difficult to meet again.”
Dong Yuefan listened, tilted his head and said in confusion: "Xiaoduo, look how many days you have been in the capital, how well you are doing now, the emperor wants to retain you as a female official, this shows that you are very adaptable. The environment in the capital is so great, why don’t you want to stay here?”
"I am very adaptable, but adapting does not mean that I like it here." As soon as Hong Xiaoduo finished speaking, the two chickens in the field were flapping again, and their wings with few feathers were fighting together.
"Xiaoduo, don't you think the people watching the cockfight are cruel and cold-blooded, especially unfit to bring a child like Kaiyang to watch?" Dong Yuefan couldn't help but ask again.
This time, Hong Xiaoduo responded without hesitation: "This is just an entertainment activity. In my opinion, it would be better if no one placed bets behind this entertainment activity.
Next time you hear someone say that cockfighters are cruel and cold-blooded, you might as well ask him or her whether he or she eats poultry or chicken. If you don’t eat living animals, why don’t you eat eggs? Eggs also hatch into chicks, so people who eat eggs are also cruel and cold-blooded. ”
With a puff, Dong Yuefan couldn't hold it back and laughed out loud, clasping his fists at Hong Xiaoduo to express his admiration!
After watching the cockfight all afternoon, Xiaoduo and Kaiyang followed Dong Yuefan outside after dinner. When they returned to the Wei Mansion, they heard that Princess Fenglin had just left.
"Do you really want to ask?" Ms. Qi asked her husband in a low voice...
