"This is silk." When Wei Yunlan introduced the word "silk", he used "Rakshasa language", which is the language of Dayong.
The noblewoman opposite was stunned for a moment, and after realizing that Wei Yunlan was speaking Rakshasa language, she suddenly realized something and imitated Wei Yunlan, saying the word "silk" again. Then she said, "This silk fabric is so novel. You can't feel it from a distance, but when you get close and shine it in the light, it seems to have a luster."
Before Wei Yunlan could speak, she immediately asked, "Where can I buy this fabric?"
The noblewoman next to her also nodded and asked, "Can I buy it in Rakshasa Country?"
Looking at how eager the two of them were, it seemed as if as long as Wei Yunlan said "yes", they would immediately send people to Rakshasa Country to purchase.
"It's not available outside for the time being. If you are interested, you might as well ask Hanzhe in a few days. He will tell you where you can buy silk." Wei Yunlan said politely.
Upon seeing this, the two noble ladies quickly turned their gazes to Hanzhe who was standing aside with his arms folded, with eager eyes, "Brother Said, when there is a letter in a while, you must let someone tell us!"
"We must be the first in the capital to wear such beautiful fabric."
Hanzhe nodded to the two of them and said, "Don't worry, I will inform you in time when the time comes."
The servants at the palace gate led them into the palace.
The carriages of each mansion could only be parked outside, but there were specially prepared carriages in the palace inside to take guests directly from the gate to the banquet hall where the dinner was held.
These cars can seat up to six people.
There are three people on Wei Yunlan's side, plus the two brothers Hanzhe and Su Lie, and their entourage.
The room was full and there was no room for anyone else, so the two noble women had to separate from them here.
After getting in the car, Su Lie introduced: "The two people just now are the daughters of the Nanying Marquis's Mansion. They are somewhat related to our mansion. My aunt's husband's sister is the mother of the sisters just now."
"I see." No matter which country, the powerful class is generally like this. One family is connected to another, and if you want to establish a relationship with them, you can always find some connection between them.
"The Marquis of Nanying's Mansion is wealthy, and the two sisters Xueruo and Xueqi also have high standards." Hanzhe's eyes flashed with certainty, "Anyone who knows the goods can see the goodness of silk. Miss Wei, this business has great potential. Since you trust me and our Marquis of Said's Mansion, I will definitely not let you down. When the goods arrive, the silk will definitely sell well in Qimeng Country!"
"I'll lend you my good words."
As they were talking, the car had already stopped outside the palace's grand banquet hall. Rather than being called a "hall", it was actually a huge square, but it was lit up with rows of lights hanging on it.
The front and slightly higher position of the square is where the king, queen and members of the royal family sit. In the center is a perfect circular platform, and all the other seats are around the other three sides of the platform.
At this time, there was still some time before the banquet started, and the people in the square had not yet taken their seats. They were all gathered in groups of three or four to talk.
As soon as Wei Yunlan and his group came in, someone noticed them.
"Hanzhe, Su Lie."
A nobleman who looked about the same age as Hanzhe waved at Hanzhe and the others, then stepped forward and said, "Just now I was wondering why I didn't see you guys. It turns out you have guests with you."
Then he looked towards Wei Yunlan and nodded, "Who is this?"
"This is Miss Wei." Hanzhe's expression was not as enthusiastic as the other party's. He did not introduce more, but only said: "Miss Wei is a guest invited by the Queen and Prince Anlu."
The pupils of the noble man opposite trembled slightly, but in the blink of an eye, he perfectly restrained the strange color and showed Wei Yunlan a humble and kind smile, "Miss Wei, is this your first time in the capital? I am Ritter from the Duke of Bern's Mansion. I have been in the capital since I was a child. I know all the fun places around here. After the queen's birthday banquet is over, if Miss Wei is free in a few days, why not take her to play around in the capital..."
"Miss Wei, I've seen Prince Anlu. Let's go over there first." Hanzhe interrupted the man's endless chatter and used his body to separate him from the man opposite and continued to look towards Wei Yunlan.
"Sorry." Wei Yunlan glanced at them indifferently and followed Hanzhe and Su Lie.
After walking away for a distance, Su Lie looked back and curled his lips, "He is not a good person. If Miss Wei meets him in the capital in the future, just ignore him."
Wei Yunlan recalled the name that the other party had just introduced.
Bernritter.
It seemed familiar. He remembered that Prince Anlu had introduced it yesterday at the gate of Baicao Garden. Among the carriages parked outside the South Garden opposite, there was one from the Duke of Bourne's Palace.
The ranks of the nobles in the State of Qimeng, apart from the royal family, are ranked from duke to marquis, earl to viscount and baron and below. In the entire State of Qimeng, there are only four people who hold the title of duke.
The status of the Duke of Bourne's mansion is evident.
Su Lie rolled his eyes in disdain, "Ritter is not a proper young master in the Duke's Mansion. He is the stepson brought into the mansion when the Duchess of Bern and the Duke of Bern got married."
Wei Yunlan was shocked.
What shocked me was not Bernritt's fake identity as "Young Duke", but "Did the Duchess get married once before marrying the Duke?"
In Dayong, there were women who divorced and remarried.
But there are very few of them, especially in the mansions of nobles, which are rare to see.
In all her past and present lives, she only knew of one successful divorce case among the people she knew...
I have heard of a few other cases, but I have never heard of anyone marrying into a wealthy family, and I have never heard of anyone marrying again and bringing the children born to her first husband with her.
"That Duchess is not a simple character either..." As soon as Su Lie opened his mouth, Hanzhe warned him with a look.
There are many people here and they all talk a lot. This is not a place suitable for criticizing others.
"The Duke and Duchess of Bourne got married five years ago. Both of them had been married once before." Hanzhe said in a low voice.
Su Lie took two steps closer to Wei Yunlan, and seeing that there was no one around, he quickly said in a low voice: "Don't listen to my eldest brother's polite words. The Duchess of Bern was originally the wife of a viscount in the royal capital. After the previous Duchess passed away, she immediately kicked out the viscount and married into the Duke's Mansion..."
"She is still benefiting from my aunt's influence." Su Lie was a little indignant when he talked about this. "My aunt originally promulgated the regulations to benefit those women who were oppressed by their husbands' families, but I didn't expect that she would take advantage of it."
"Okay, stop talking." Hanzhe warned again with his eyes, "We'll talk about it when we get back."
Upon hearing this, Su Lie immediately covered his mouth.
At this time, Prince Anlu came over with two palace maids.
"Finally I see you guys."
"Miss Wei, my wife Wang wants to see you."
