A Huan was in a very good mood, and even very generously asked Cui Mingde to stay for dinner, but Cui Mingde naturally declined politely, looked at me thoughtfully, and resigned.

A Huan ignored her, and ordered people to serve rice with a smile. It was not a big dish that cost dozens of dollars, but only four small dishes—grilled pepper fish, meatballs with cheese, coriander salad, coriander salad, A bowl of fish soup - filled with vinegar and sprinkled with pepper, placed on the small table on the couch, with two sets of dishes on both sides, leading me to sit on the couch: "I used to think it was weird to sit in one place while eating. Yes, now you are leading me astray, I think it's good to eat like this."

I said: "You don't see Dalang coming back. If he is here, the three of us sit around one place, have a hot pot, and eat lively." When I mentioned keeping the etiquette, I saw her look at me with supercilious eyes: " Did you teach him something strange again? He was walking on the road that day, and suddenly stopped, saying that he was observing the shadow of the sun, saw an ant, and he was not allowed to clean it, but he insisted on raising it, saying, "Ants can move." Things that are several times the size of one's own body are very respectable'. After changing new shoes, they wiped them on the ground repeatedly, saying that they were testing the 'friction force'."

I smiled: "I was just about to tell you about this. I learned something from the gods. I don't remember everything. I said a few sentences here and there. How about finding a few people to think about these things for me, compile a book, and teach etiquette?"

A Huan was breaking the cake and dipping it in the soup, when he heard this, he stopped his hands: "Compiling medical books and military books is not enough, and we still need to compile fairy arts?"

I corrected her: "It's not fairy art, it's natural science—it's the description of the principles of nature. It can be divided into physics, chemistry, mathematics, and biology...I think it's not just about teaching rituals, it's best to have a yamen to study this , spread the teachings in the world, and it will be of great use in the future."

A Huan slowly lifted the cake out of the soup and stuffed it into my mouth: "Are you referring to being like Si Tianjian?"

I was taken aback, biting the cake and said vaguely: "Of course it can't be the same as Si Tianjian." Si Tianjian is in charge of the sky. The reports and explanations for things like this all come from the Sitian Supervisor, and the four-season suburban sacrifices, agricultural festivals, etc. all depend on this. In terms of the superstition of the people at the time, they can be regarded as half a big sacrifice. I don’t want to let People think that I am offending the divine right and speculating about the sky. After I finished speaking, I realized that A Huan was talking ironically, and said in a low voice, "It's not necessarily necessary to set up an official office. Let's discuss it with a few people who like this. Writing a book together and passing it on to future generations is not considered buried." The more I talked, the more I felt guilty, I swallowed the last bite of the cake, and said dejectedly: "I know, this thing can't be done right now."

But A Huan rarely taunted me: "It's not impossible to do it at all. If the people in power not only don't shy away from it, but support it very much, it's not a big deal to refute all criticisms from the court."

I lowered my head and said, "Then what you're talking about must not be my mother, most likely it won't be...cough."

A Huan put a chopstick of dried fish in the cake, made it into the shape of a meat bun, and fed me again: "It's not him, there are others, in such a big country, can't you find someone who believes in you?"

My eyes lit up, I stopped eating, held her hand and said, "Of course there will be people who believe in me." Halfway through the conversation, I found that the discussion was too far-reaching and far beyond our control, so I came back to my senses and lightly He smiled and said: "I can't do this, so I'll do something else first, the days are still long, what are you afraid of, don't just feed me, eat by yourself." She also picked up a chopstick of dried fish to feed her, she said politely He took a bite and looked at me without blinking: "Is this what you are good at?"

I said: "What?" When I looked outside, there was no one there as far as I could see, but I couldn't help but walk around and looked carefully at the windows and the door.

A Huan said: "Since I took the initiative to ask for someone, they also know how to measure. They won't inquire too much. Don't worry." Have you ever told you anything other than the sight of the Heavenly Palace?"

I said vaguely: "It's not like talking to me, even in my dream I always wander around the gods, and they don't stop me, as if I'm from there—what's wrong?"

A Huan lowered her head, fiddled with her fingers, and said, "It's nothing, I just feel that among these princes and grandchildren, you are the only one who has met a god, which shows that you have deep blessings."

I laughed and said, "It's fine if you don't offend anyone's taboo, and you don't have to keep mentioning whether you are lucky or not. It's not good if you say something wrong." I was always afraid that she would ask about it, so I hurriedly interrupted: "Let me tell you something, don't blame me. In fact... I also think what Cui Mingde said makes sense. Although Ah Shao is in the limelight, the root cause is that A Niang and the courtiers value her father. Duke Yuankang has reached this age. I really don't know how many more years there will be, so I'm afraid it's not appropriate to ask her to make a name for herself at this time."

A Huan looked at me and smiled: "You mean to push her into the fire pit?"

I said embarrassingly: "No, she is also the first female general in history after all, she should be favored by Auntie..."

A Huan gave me a white look: "I also know that this is inappropriate, there is no need for Cui Er to say, Dugu Shao himself would not do this, but for ordinary people to buy and sell, one person always asks the price, and the other person counters the price. You come and go, take your time." Deliberate slowly, how could the price be set at the beginning? This is especially true for people like Cui Er. If you don’t force Dugu Shao, are you still waiting for her to take the initiative to help you?”

I was stunned for a moment, and called out dumbfoundedly: "A Huan!"

She seemed to be mistaken, and stretched out her hand to pinch my face and said: "Yes, you are a spoiled little princess, Your Majesty's darling, how do you know how to bargain? If you have time someday, let Feng Yongchang take care of me. You can go to the market for a walk, negotiate prices with people, and get to know the sufferings of the people, it’s not bad.”

I rolled my eyes: "Why don't I know how to bargain? I'm afraid I've been to the two cities more times than you. I just think the way you bargain...is cute."

People like Cui Mingde or Wan'er are naturally excellent people, but I prefer to associate with people like A Huan or A Shao, just like the four small dishes on this table, and those hot pots, barbecues, etc. Small things that are not on the table will make me feel closer than exquisite and rich palace banquets.I think it is probably because although I wear the skin of a princess of a country, I am still an ordinary person after all.In the first few years here, after I accepted the reality, I often dreamed that I was exposed and killed as a monster. Now, although I don’t worry too much about this, I already feel that I should belong here, but some A habit that has penetrated deep into the bone marrow, but it can never be changed.

I smiled at Ah Huan: "I'll teach you a word, it's used by the gods to describe useless and incompetent ordinary people, it's called 'diaosi'..."

A Huan was originally smiling with her head down, as if she was a bit embarrassed, but now she really felt embarrassed, blushed, stretched out her hands aggressively, and pulled my cheeks: "By the help of the gods Speak obscene words in the name of!"
