In the cool autumn season, the tuxedo that resembles a four-piece suit has been made.As for the effect of wearing it on Pei Jin's body, it is nothing more than making those descriptions such as graceful and heroic look like pale clichés.

He was born with a good-looking physique, while confirming this again, he couldn't help feeling that God was unfair, given this man good luck, he could not hesitate to give him a good-looking appearance.

Speaking of the banquet, Pei Jin did plan to bring him to attend, but he was called to the study to discuss this matter the night before.

Inside the room, a middle-aged man was sitting opposite Pei Jin. He had a broad face and a square nose, and his demeanor was the same as that of his face, revealing a broad-minded and fat texture.

"This is Mr. Xu, the general manager of Yenching Academy." Pei Jin introduced, "You go with Mr. Xu to the banquet tomorrow, and say that you are his distant relatives. If you have any problems, you can just ask Mr. Xu humbly."

At the same time, I saluted Mr. Xu, and after a few words, I realized that the so-called Yenching Academy is the highest institution of learning in this dynasty, and its current status is equivalent to that of Peking University and Tsinghua University in later generations, and the most important thing is the biggest sponsor of this academy. The person is Pei Jin, Marquis of Cheng En.

Mr. Xu has a great reputation, and the general office is equivalent to the principal of the school.He enjoys a high reputation in the intellectual circles of the capital, and he is well connected with the powerful class, and he has a very close personal relationship with Pei Jin.

At this moment, he was looking at Tong Ze with an amiable smile, "What a handsome boy, all the people the Marquis likes are so outstanding. Xu knows how to do it, and he will definitely arrange it properly with my little brother."

Pei Jin nodded with a smile, as if I would be relieved to leave the matter to you, but Meifeng frowned slightly, and he said, "His surname can't be used anymore, let's change it to Rendong Tong, the previous word is too eye-catching, it's easy to confuse people." recognize."

It sounded like he was going to be introduced into the upper class social circle in Kyoto, but Tong raised his eyebrows and didn't express any objection, but he was still a little dissatisfied with his sudden surname change.

Of course, it’s useless to be dissatisfied. After getting along for a few months, I have a deeper understanding of Pei Jin. This person’s strength can be said to be hidden, his appearance is upright and elegant, and his emotions are just right. , but can always smile and speak irrefutable words in the softest tone.

So just changing the surname and not changing the gender, at the same time decided to listen to Pei Hou's instructions from Shan Ruliu.

In the evening of the next day, the same man sat in Xu Gongmao's carriage and went with him to the residence of the French ambassador.Xu Gongmao was very talkative and introduced many people and things to him along the way.For example, what kind of envoys from countries will come here today, and which countries will come to study abroad? Among them, some of them have heard of him, and some he has seen. The most exquisite and flawless His Royal Highness Uda.

I don't know if his secret lover Cheng Anjun will come on today's occasion, and whether there will be fierce flirting between the two of them, or a private affair scene.

After Xu Gongmao finished speaking, he felt quite complacent, "His Royal Highness Yutian has been studying in this school for some time, and recently he has learned a lot from studying Zhuangzi's works. He wrote a treatise a few days ago and asked me to read it. I thought it was time to publish it. The standard of a book, hey, when I get back to work, I will show it to you."

The meaning inside and outside the words is nothing more than telling Tongze that Uda is his student.By praising the students, he also flattered himself by the way.

At the same time, he turned his head to listen, looked at him with a smile, and began to tease in his heart. The intellectuals boasted, and they could be so high-profile without sparing any effort.

"What the hell is the villain going to do today?" Taking advantage of Xu Gongmao's suspension of the conversation, Tong quickly broke out of the topic, "The villain can't guess the meaning of the third master, and I don't dare to guess. If you know, can you Express."

Xu Gongmao glanced at him, then lowered his voice mysteriously, "Didn't Master Hou tell you?"

It seems that there is a special mission, but at the same time, a secret excitement flashed in his heart, while pretending to be innocent and ignorant, he shook his head, "I really don't know, Lord Hou is busy with things, how can I dare to go there rashly?" ask him."

Xu Gongmao groaned, but after a long time, he took out a delicate wine jug from his pocket, took a big gulp, and then shook his head and said, "Well... Master Hou didn't tell me .” Shrugging, dryly put down such a sentence.

The energy and energy that I mentioned just now was suddenly exhausted, I don't know if it's still a secret!Smelling the rich aroma of wine in the car, he also had very deep doubts about the reliability of this intellectual.

Xu Gongmao, who looked like a master, was ignorant of his dissatisfaction, and continued to say amiably, "But Lord Hou must have a lot of deep meaning. Hey, your modest title just now needs to be changed. When you introduce it later, you will say that you are me." A distant relative of my wife's family, who came to study in Kyoto. You should call me... Well, at your age, you can call me uncle. When we talk, remember to address you and me, and don't put on a pretense to let people listen Go, ruin Lord Hou's plan."

Although I don't know it, I still think about Pei Hou's "big plan". As for the uncle, he also snickered that Xu can raise his own seniority, and the smiling look on his face may be daydream. At this age, is it appropriate for Pei Jin to call him uncle instead?

"Almost forgot the most important thing!" Xu Gongmao said suddenly, "I heard you know how many foreign languages?"

At the same time, he nodded and said yes, Xu Gongmao quickly waved his hands, "Don't show it later, no matter what the foreigners say, you pretend you don't understand. I'm just saying that you just came up from Huizhou and came to Kyoto to see the world, so remember! It's revealed, this is what Master Hou specially ordered."

Pretending to be deaf and dumb? It's not difficult.But this is even more puzzling, what is Pei Jin's intention to let him come to see the world, but not let him communicate with others.Of course, he did not doubt that all the envoys could speak idiomatic Chinese, and chatting with each other would definitely not be a problem.

But what is the purpose?

It’s impossible to really take him to see popular clothes styles, and taste how crispy the outside is and tender inside the quintessence of French macarons, right?

At this time, the minister's mansion is already crowded with celebrities and celebrities, and the feeling is familiar, it is no different from the clothes and temples at various receptions in the previous life.

Following closely behind Xu Gongmao, the same person always smiles when he meets everyone, playing the role of the distant nephew of Mr. Xu with ease, and his speech and behavior are both polite and slightly reserved.

As for Pei Jin, as a distinguished guest, he was surrounded by people, and it was not his turn to say hello.At the same time, he looked at Pei Hou from a distance surrounded by all kinds of beautiful men and women, and occasionally looked at each other. Pei Jin looked at him very indifferently, as if he didn't know him at all.

This is to get rid of the relationship with him. At this moment, no matter how stupid Tong Ze is, he knows that he has a chance to stand here tonight, and there is definitely a more important task than making clothes.

The foreigner's reception is still the same as in the previous life. Before the meal, a group of people stand together in twos and threes to chat about gossip.At the same time, he quickly discovered that pretending to be "deaf" is also beneficial-you can freely shuttle through the crowd and listen to the people around you, but no one will deliberately avoid him.

Most of those topics still involved gossip about Kyoto and the upper class in the country. After listening to it for a while, he became uninterested, and his eyes inevitably drifted to the place with Pei Jin. Who made Hou Ye a particularly eye-catching existence, like a crowd A ray of light in the sky, even though he is standing with Prince Uda right now.

Pei Jin obviously has the advantage of height, there is no way, the islanders suffer from this, no matter how good the face is, they can't look at the legs.Thinking back to Takuya Kimura back then, he could be popular all over Asia with just one face, but whenever the camera zoomed down to the neck, the obviously flawed bowed short legs looked really embarrassing.

As far as face matching is concerned, Pei Jin's usually gentle face appears tough and angular in contrast to Utian's overly soft and delicate face.If Yutian is suet jade, Pei Jin is like a diamond, with sharpness and sharpness, and both movements and stillness exude a crisp and neat taste.

Gossip with Xu Gongmao here, and look back at the same time, that Yutian disappeared at some point, and Pei Jin was replaced by a young girl, who is today's protagonist.The envoy's daughter was eighteen years old, full of youth, and dressed in rich and elegant clothes. The dress on her body deliberately created the style of the Rococo era, which was complicated and gorgeous, showing extravagance.

She seemed to be very familiar with Pei Jin, and Pei Jin whispered something to her, which made the girl lean back and forth and shake the flowers.Pei Jin also smiled brightly, for some reason, seeing that smile made his heart move, and he felt that Pei Hou seemed to be a little more human at this time.

However, whether Pei Jin has a sense of humor or not, I still have a question mark in my heart. Anyway, the other party is a French woman, and she is always willing to join her. What is the characteristic of the French, of course, it is to understand the customs - this is still a good way to say of.

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and it was even more uncomfortable when he thought about it carefully. Of course, it was not because Pei Jin chatted and joked with the girl very intimately, but it seemed to be because such a role once belonged to him!

Right now, although he is not as good looking as Pei Jin, he is handsome anyway, but because of the lack of status blessing, he has become uninterested. It can be seen that the mean power of Vanity Fair has not changed for thousands of years.

After staying for a while, the strong perfume smell gradually filled the nostrils. Europeans in this era still stick to the old tradition of not taking a bath, so they had to make themselves smell like flowers, and almost couldn't help sneezing. Head, decided to go outside for two breaths of fresh air.

Standing in the corridor and pushing open the window, I saw stars shining on a small piece of lawn in front of the court.The carriages of various families were parked not far away, someone was lighting gas lamps, and the servants were sitting around joking and bragging.

Different from the sanctimonious in the hall, it is another kind of simple and straightforward happiness.The two worlds are completely different, but each has its own joys and sorrows.

As a person who has traveled between two worlds, his expectations for life now seem to have become relatively simple.In fact, I can't help laughing at myself, the argument of being happy with the situation is too fruitless. After all, these four words have been far removed from his life.

Then this life coincides with a prosperous age, should we make the best use of the situation and rise up again?

Suddenly, a sudden burst of laughter interrupted his cranky thoughts.

A woman in kimono came down from the carriage obliquely in front, holding a folding fan, and the plain clothes were decorated with cherry blossom patterns.At the same time, she turned her face away. A pair of fox-like eyes were embedded in her snow-white face. When the headlights shone on her, those eyes seemed to glow, making her appearance that was only worth five cents very charming. .

The fox-eyed woman was surrounded by a group of maids, all unanimously sizing up Prince Uda who appeared from nowhere.

The two were looking at each other, the woman's neck was straight and her jaw was slightly raised, but after half a day, she still reluctantly gave a superficial salute to Yu Tian.

"Your Highness." She said, "I heard that His Highness was unwell a while ago, and he seems to be fine. Sure enough, there are banquets, and His Highness can always be seen."

Yutian was indifferent to her ridicule, and said indifferently, "You should have received your mother's letter. When will the lady leave?"

"Don't worry about it, Your Highness. I still have unfinished business here. When everything is in order, I will bring His Royal Highness the Crown Prince back to China at the right time."

After she finished speaking, she was about to leave, but Yutian showed eagerness on his face, and chased after her, "The prince is already negotiating marriage, you must intervene, it will not be good for you, the seat of the concubine is not the turn of a foreigner Do it, you are extremely irresponsible to the Great Yan court and the Great Japanese court."

The fox-eyed woman stopped in her tracks, turned her head arrogantly and reservedly, "Your Highness blocked me here today, did you come here specifically to say this? That's really a matter of time, Your Highness knows that the crown prince didn't come, if the crown prince is here today , Your Highness, dare to persuade me to give up in front of him? You know that it is impossible."

She leaned close to him with a sharp voice, "You are the one who should go back, don't stand in the way here, do something that disgraces the royal family, don't think I don't know about the nasty things between you and that North Korean bastard."

After speaking, he pushed him away together, and Yutian was pushed back two steps staggeringly, his face was very ugly, but after a pause, he persisted in catching up. Just as he was about to speak, the woman with fox eyes turned her head and stared back, her eyes were stern.

It was too late, but soon, the woman pulled out a short knife from her wide sleeve, with a swipe, the dagger was unsheathed, and there was a tearing sound, and a hole was cut in Yutian's shirt.

The strength is precise, only hurting clothes and not hurting people.

"Your Highness's clothes are torn. It's really rude. You should go back quickly before people notice, or you will lose the dignity of the royal family."

After the woman finished speaking, she smiled coldly, her eyes rolled, with disdain and pride intertwined, and then she left His Royal Highness, who had a higher title than her, on the spot, and led the crowd away.

Looking at Yutian again, he was alone, and after a long time, no follower came to find him.He stood there with his head slightly lowered, as if looking at his lonely shadow under the starlight.

The piece of fabric on his chest was just torn, but there was no way to repair it. He sighed softly, turned around, and walked out.
