Chapter 264 At the Banquet
Jin Zekang has been smart and good at forbearance since he was young, and he is even better at making use of all available resources.
If such a person cannot see clearly into his own heart and does not understand what he really wants, he will continue to ask for things and thus harm others and himself.
It often doesn't end well.
However, Jin Zekang showed his own characteristics in this track.
He has a clear mind and is not so conceited as to treat others as fools.
Neither Jiang Xinyu nor Bao Beibei are the kind of people who can be won over by money or power. If you want to have a pleasant cooperation with them, you can only exchange sincerity for sincerity.
Bao Beibei liked women's clothing, but he did not force her to do so. He even asked the butler to send him a lot of clothing materials and jewelry.
For example, at today's banquet, Bao Beibei's clothes were not complicated but the fabric was expensive and extremely gorgeous.
The bright red skirt with gold sprinkles was particularly eye-catching and attracted a lot of discussion among the ladies and young ladies.
Even in the relatively open modern world, the terms "fuck brother" and "fuck sister" are extremely ambiguous, not to mention the conservative ancient times.
The Regent King inexplicably gained a younger sister, and many people guessed wrongly that she might be the future Regent King Consort.
Bao Beibei is very satisfied with this identity.
It can avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble and small talk and I can sit in the first row next to Xiao Yudian.
As the families of the two rulers of Dajin, they were of equal status.
Even if there is some interaction, it is normal and others will just regard it as diplomacy between the ladies and will not delve too much into the relationship between the two.
Prince Tosai thought his wolf god was playing a joke on him.
Just when he was about to forget about that beauty and devote himself to his career, the person he had been looking for unexpectedly appeared and sat diagonally opposite him.
What is this?
After searching everywhere, you will find it without any effort.
But no matter what, even though the blessing from Lord Wolf God came late, today is truly a good day for him, with both love and career flourishing.
There is no need to go through so much trouble. Just add a marriage to the last condition and you can have this beauty in your arms.
If he originally wanted Jiang Xinyu nine points, now it has risen to twelve points.
Those who can sit in the front row of this banquet hall are basically royal women.
The current young emperor has no concubines, so it is inconvenient for the concubines to attend. It is likely that this girl is a princess or a county lady.
If I could marry her, I would have a strong helper in the future.
As for whether the woman was willing or not, it was not within his consideration at all.
Women should obey their fathers at home and their husbands after marriage.
Even his aunt, who was known as the goddess of war, had to marry according to his father's orders.
No matter how tough he is, you can conquer him if you try to coax him.
It doesn't matter if you don't agree with him at first. Once you have a child, you will be completely tied to him.
A mother is strong, and she will help herself even for the sake of her children.
Even at the Hongmen Banquet, courtesy was used before force.
The palace maids and eunuchs served the dishes one by one, and in the center of the hall, a dozen dancers in gorgeous clothes danced gracefully.
No one expected to eat their fill at this kind of banquet, so the dishes were mostly exquisite and luxurious, with most being cold dishes.
When the dance is over, it's time to talk. Whether you want to talk about serious matters or flatter someone, you can speak now.
As the supreme ruler, the emperor controls the overall situation.
Good things happen, haha, just laugh and say a few words, then continue to play music and dance.
If you don't want to pay attention to you, just find an excuse to change the subject.
Most of them use the excuse that the next program is good and upload it first to occupy their time so that their people can think of a solution.
Although Jin Zeyu is young, he has been smart since childhood. Jin Zekang has taught him how to deal with it in advance, and he is doing quite well now.
After the singing and dancing, he picked up a wine glass filled with water and said a few words to make the scene more interesting, and Old Chen in the audience nodded repeatedly.
No wonder the Regent Prince would rather give up the throne himself and support the little prince.
He truly has the bearing of a wise ruler, and his future is bound to be limitless.
Tosse didn't care about whether the little emperor was excellent or not. After thanking Dajin for his hospitality, he got straight to the point.
The first element of negotiation is not to show weakness even if you are offered something easy.
This time they came to ask for food and money, but they cannot mention this first and must show their strength first.
We must let Dajin know that the Quanrong are not easy to deal with, so that asking for things will not be a "request" but a "demand".
Although there is only one word difference, there is a world of difference in meaning.
"Requesting" means begging. If someone is happy and throws you some leftovers, you have to be grateful.
If you are unhappy, you will get nothing. Not only will you not gain any advantage, but you will also lose face.
But "requirements" are different.
To put it nicely, it means that if there is no advance notice, you can grab it, which not only brings practical benefits but also makes you look powerful.
Purely taking advantage of others.
After the little emperor finished his speech, he put down his wine glass and raised it again.
"After appreciating Da Jin's singing and dancing, I feel that it is not very good. What is the point of this soft and decadent music?
Although His Majesty the Emperor is young, he is still a real man. As a man, he should see what a man should see.
This king also brought a song and dance from the Quanrong to congratulate Your Majesty on his accession to the throne."
Jin Zeyu knew that the Quanrong came with ill intentions this time, and when he saw the other party talking about presenting singing and dancing, he looked at the Regent King.
Jin Zekang nodded imperceptibly.
When soldiers come, we will stop them; when water comes, we will cover it with earth.
No matter what the secret behind his show is, there is no reason to not let people on it, otherwise it would show that they are afraid.
It's just singing and dancing, how can it make flowers appear?
After receiving the approval from his brother, Jin Zeyu said in a loud voice like a little adult,
“The songs and dances of each country have their own unique cultural connotations and artistic values.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Prince Tosai's words are too biased.
But since Prince Tosai cannot appreciate the elegant art of my Great Jin, let me see the songs and dances of the Quanrong.
It’s not easy for you to come here from thousands of miles away.”
Jin Zeyu's counterattack was quite beautiful, which is very rare at his age.
It not only shows that Tosai's behavior of belittling Dajin's singing and dancing is very low-class, but also shows that he is a wild boar who cannot eat fine bran and does not understand high art.
Finally, I also pointed out that it was you who came all the way here to congratulate us, we didn't invite you, so there is no need for you to act so condescending.
Tosai never thought that a little kid's taunts could be so sharp and hit the mark, and he finally began to take this little emperor seriously.
Originally, he did not take the emperor seriously, thinking that the Jin Dynasty was a puppet pushed by the Regent King and the Marquis of Zhenguo to compete with each other.
I didn't expect that he underestimated the enemy.
Considering the kid's intelligence, if he were allowed to grow up, he would definitely be a serious threat to the Quanrong.
But it's okay this way.
The emperor was smart enough and was unwilling to be controlled by others. Both the regent and the marquis were stumbling blocks on his road to ruling the country.
Whether the two of them united to change the emperor or the little emperor united with one of them to destroy the other, there was a lot of excitement after the Jin Dynasty.
As for the idea that the ruler and his subjects should get along well and not have internal strife,
Haha, this situation is impossible even if you think about it.
Who would want to let go of something as fascinating as power?
Tosai, who thought he had discovered Dajin's shortcomings, did not argue with a little kid.
He clapped his hands to signal the Quanrong tribe to start their singing and dancing, but his eyes flickered between the young emperor, the regent, and the marquis of Zhenguo.
