Northern Song Dynasty Revitalization Strategy

Chapter 584 She's flirting with you, dead steel!

Anna looked at Humbert suspiciously. Thinking of a certain possibility, she said with a smile on her face, "Did you make a mistake and regard the journal as profit?"

Only then did Humbert carefully read the mansion newspaper in his hand, and realized that he had indeed read it wrong.

Flow and profit.

"You know that Han people's writing is very complicated, and the accounting method of this account book, with so much data, is difficult to understand." Humbert looked helpless.

"And why did the emperor of Song Dynasty write this kind of financial report in the newspaper?" Humbert asked with some doubts, having never seen such a practice.

And Anna covered her face and chuckled, Han Chinese characters are difficult to learn, and spoken language is easier for them, but characters are too difficult for him.

"Then, can the emperor of the Song Dynasty pay for my costume for the cost of attending the Royal Ball of the Song Dynasty?" Anna asked softly, looking at the sunset in the sky.

Humbert bowed his head and said, "Sometimes, a person pays a higher price for something that they don't spend money on. My Royal Highness."

Anna stretched out her hand to let the afterglow of the setting sun dye her palm golden yellow, she stared blankly at her slender fingers and asked, "My great cardinal, you have been expelled from the church and I have been exiled. Is there anything else I can lose?"

"A eldest princess from the Roman Empire tens of thousands of miles away."

"I wanted to kill my younger brother John during the political struggle, but was discovered by John's mother. After I lost the throne, after the political struggle failed, I was exiled and I left the place of exile. In essence, I was a Criminal!"

Anna's complexion suddenly turned dark and she said, "I'm like those filthy poor people in Byzantine Castle! No one will pity the eldest princess who has lost power! No one will regard me as a high-ranking eldest princess!"

"My dear brother John, also regards me as a bargaining chip that can be traded! My fiance, Constantine Dukas, even annulled his engagement with me after learning that I lost the right to inherit the throne! "

"Your Royal Highness, you don't have to blame yourself at all. The Holy Lord will forgive your mistakes. You don't need to confess to anyone, you only need to confess to the Holy Lord." Humbert said cautiously.

Their eastern churches do not have as many rules and regulations as the western churches.

There are not so many artificial rules.

For example, in the item of confession, there is no need to confess to any priests, only to confess to the Holy Lord in heaven after death.

"In Europa, I lost everything I owned. I want to regain everything I lost in the Eastern world."

"Besides, in the eyes of Bishop Humbert, the emperor of Song Dynasty is not as good as those wastes of the Capet family who like cloaks and only rely on women?"

"Still not as good as the Wetin family's inbreeding stallions? Still not as good as the Navian brown bears of the Rurik family? Or not as good as the merchants of the Este family who only know how to do business?"

"Still not as good as the hounds of the Hohenzollern family? Still not as good as the ivy of the Ivrea family who betrayed their allies everywhere."

Humbert counted, from the Capet family in France, to the Wetting family in Holy Germany (Holy Roman Empire), to the Rurik family in the Duchy of Ross, to the Este family in Italy, and then to the family coat of arms. The Hohenzollern family embroidered with dog heads, and Her Royal Highness the eldest princess blacked out one by one.

Humbert nodded and said: "The territory they control, the life of the common people and nobles they manage can't be compared with Da Song at all, my Royal Highness."

In the end, Anna got a custom-made dress from the Dasong clothing store, a dress full of Byzantine elements.

The cuffs, neckline, and bottom hem are all sewn with round and square interlaced sparkling gemstones, and a long cape fastened on the right shoulder reaches the calf.

She combed her long black hair neatly, and pressed it under a small round-brimmed hat, and her well-manicured black hair reached her waist.

This round-brimmed hat was a popular hat accessory for soldiers and women accompanying the army during the Crusades to shelter from the scorching sun.

She had on a long chunik, an ancient Egyptian style of dress, a barrel-fitting bodice from just to the ankle.

Then put on a skirt full of tassels. The embroidery of the long skirt is the very popular beaded pattern in the Roman Empire.

The top is open-front, and the front is divided into two pieces, revealing half of the huge justice filled with holy light.

Anna took out a brooch and cleverly covered up this half of justice. This was the family crest of their family, representing her final glory.

The wide sleeves are bound by the cuffs, which are full of patterns and glass.

All this is in line with Anna's requirements for clothing.

The neck, wrists and ankles are exposed, but it is not kitsch. It undoubtedly shows her good figure, but it does not reveal anything that should not be exposed.

She stepped on a pair of high-soled shoes full of Spanish style, and Anna stood in front of the full-length mirror like a proud swan.

But the proud Anna quickly thought of the status quo and sighed.

With Humbert's support, she sat in the palace where Yanjing of the Song Dynasty was traveling. She was fascinated by the tall stores, the endless stream of merchants, and the pedestrians rubbing shoulders.

It would be great if Byzantium could be so prosperous.

Zhao Huan was staying in the palace, with the help of the palace servants, wearing a mian suit, and going to attend the state banquet of thanking the master.

It is called the National Banquet of Teacher Appreciation, but in fact, Bianjing conducted the second official examination, and more than 300 officials were recruited in total.

Yingtian Academy in Yingtianfu, the pilot of the first round of education reform, is the emperor of Song Dynasty.

Like the official title of Kaifeng Governor, they are all nominal and not responsible for specific affairs, but they are the nominal teachers of Yingtian students.

And it is a system that will continue to be used after the reform of the school system.

The same is true for the Army Military Academy that has now been built.

More than 300 students and family members who went to work in various places rushed to Yanjing for a day in Bianyan Chidao. They will go to various places after attending a state banquet to bid farewell to the emperor.

It was only then that Zhao Huan found out that the family members of these brand-new Song Dynasty officials would also participate in this banquet.

Under Zhao Huan's arrangement, the envoys of various countries were also invited to attend.

Because among this group of officials, some envoys who will go to Korea, Dali, Japan, Champa, and Xixia will also attend this state banquet.

This is Zhao Huan's first pawn in his plan to restore the politics of the vassal state under the former Tang Rong Suo system.

Send permanent envoys to guarantee the interests of the citizens of Song Dynasty in these countries!
And this time Zhu Lian will accompany Zhao Huan to attend the state banquet.

After Zhao Huan attended this banquet, he always felt that he was torturing his stomach.

The dishes were good dishes, and the ingredients were extremely precious. The rare delicacies that Zhao Huan had seen before were all placed on the table. They were salty and delicious, and the knife skills were not to mention. The taste was also fresh, elegant, mellow and timeless.

The tableware is even more outrageous ivory chopsticks and gold and silver plates, which are full of luxury.

The famous dish of Dongpo Pork is also on it.

It's a pity that Zhao Huan didn't move his chopsticks twice when he attended the banquet!It is really tormenting to not be able to move chopsticks on a table of delicacies!

Because he was full from just drinking.

There are too many people coming to toast!

Zhao Huan, who was drinking, had to ask Zhao Ying to replace the wine in his jug with water.

This is considered to have escaped a catastrophe.

"Yuwen Xianggong, do less of these formal things, it's useless, it's just a waste of money." Zhao Huan instructed Yuwen Xuzhong, Taiwan's admonishment is going to be a round of letters, and criticize this extravagant style!
This banquet cost one hundred thousand kan!It's not worth the money to lose half of the Mulan boat!
This is all my own little money!The state treasury still refuses to pay!
It's too much!

He is very poor now, and he is no longer the rich man who held [-] million coins in his hand.

"The main thing is to fight against arrogance and overmanagement. This kind of extravagant and unhealthy tendencies cannot grow, so let the thrifty trend be erected." Zhao Huan explained his thoughts clearly, and Yu Wenxu nodded again and again.

Anti-arrogance is a good word.

"See Your Majesty, Your Majesty Antai." Anna brought Humbert to Zhao Huan, and she said with a smile in newly learned words.

Looking at Anna's attire, Zhao Huan nodded repeatedly.

As expected of the eldest princess, she took off the white nun's dress and turned around to become the eldest princess. This dress fits her identity very well.

Elegant and luxurious.

"Toast to Your Majesty, and bless Your Majesty and His Empire, prosperity and prosperity forever." Anna took a glass of wine and toasted Zhao Huan, showing her white wrists.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty for recruiting another group of capable officials. The Great Song Empire will become stronger and stronger." Anna took a second cup.

Zhao Huan chuckled, motioned Zhao Ying to pour some water, and continued to clink glasses.No matter how much you can drink, you won't be able to drink me down. What I drink is water!

[Straight male cancer. 】

A line of subtitles appeared in Zhao Huan's eyes.

?

Anna stroked her hair lightly, tilted her head slightly, and said with a smile: "I wish the friendship between the Roman Empire and the Great Song Empire will last from generation to generation like the sun and the moon. Please."

Anna has another glass of wine.

Zhao Huan filled another glass of water.

However, he looked at the Eldest Princess tilting her head to reveal her fair neck, and from this angle, she felt that the Eldest Princess was a bit more playful and cute.

Zhao Huan shook his head vigorously, can he get drunk even after drinking water?It's all because of the damn banquet, no food.

But even if you let me eat two mouthfuls of broad beans, I can't drink like this.

[Love Aid: When the head is tilted at eight degrees, the convex points of the nose tip, chin, and mandibular angle are on the parabola of y=1/2x^2 (0<x<3), and at 45 degrees Among the angles of view, this feels the cutest, and it is also the perfect angle for selfies. 】

[To sum up, it's easy to get: she's flirting with you.You dead steel! 】

A line of subtitles appeared in Zhao Huan's eyes, Zhao Huan was taken aback, what nickname is dead steel bar?
[Reinforced concrete level straight man!Rebar for short! 】

Zhao Huan nodded, so that's the case, he thought it was a gangster who became a master with a horizontal bar.

"May the friendship between Song Dynasty and Rome last forever." Zhao Huan responded with a formulaic smile, drank his glass of plain water, and he was not interested in continuing the conversation.

It is too far to go to Rome, and there is not much information there. No matter how many stories happened with the eldest princess, it will not have a big impact on the development of him and Da Song.

He also didn't want to have any stories with this princess of Rome. He didn't care about the glory of the history books. He knew the three people in his palace who were extremely against him.

"The official family, the eldest princess came to Song Dynasty from thousands of miles away, why don't the official family give me a seat and drink together?" Zhao Yingle smiled and whispered beside Zhao Huan: "The official family, the clothes on the eldest princess are the official account. .”

Outrageous!

Zhao Huan glanced at Zhao Ying suspiciously, what is this going to do?
　Thanks to "another novice", "Hippo in the water 117", "Book friend 140701140359286" for their rewards, thank you for your support.
