Chapter 510 Extra (VIII): Envoys from a Small Country
"Magelina, you must practice the dance that you have prepared this time and you can't be lazy. Remember?"
When Majelina heard this, she nodded vigorously: "Don't worry, sir, this dance performance in China is related to the future of our entire country, and I will definitely not make any mistakes."
Su Mulang, who had a gray beard, breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and said: "As long as you have an idea, the changes in the Celestial Dynasty are really great. When I came here last time, it was not so neat and smooth... It is said that it is called The thing about the asphalt road... The horse-drawn carriage ride at that time almost broke my old bones..."
When Majelina heard this, she couldn't help but snicker, and asked: "I heard that China also has a kind of car called a train, which can travel thousands of miles in a day. It only takes three days to reach the border from the capital of China. Is it true that you can sleep and rest in the car?”
Before Su Mulang had time to reply, the postman in charge of reception pointed at the big guy not far away who was puffing out white smoke and making a huffing sound and said: "That is the train. If you take the train to the capital, it only takes one day." "
Majelina immediately looked at Su Mulang with bright eyes: "Sir, please take us on a train ride. Taking a carriage is too slow."
Majelina and her party came from a small border country on the border of China. On the surface, they came to China to perform a dance. In fact, they brought the credentials of their king and requested to become a small subsidiary country of China. They hoped that China could send troops to stop the neighboring countries that were invading their country. .
Su Mulang looked at the big guy and kept muttering in his heart.
"A big guy like this will cost you a lot of money if you sit there once..." Su Mulang said in a low voice.
Their country is very small and very poor. This time they went to China and took one-third of the treasury's money with them.
The Celestial Empire is rich in products, but the prices are not cheap. They have spent half of their money after entering the country for so long. Things in the capital will definitely be more expensive. They are also afraid that they will not have travel expenses to return home, and they will inevitably be stretched when they spend money.
The postman on the side smiled and said: "Sir, you are worrying too much. Since you are envoys from a small country and you are here to pay tribute to our heaven, the imperial court has long made a decree to give you appropriate subsidies for your travels. This policy is still It was proposed by our Royal Highness the Crown Princess.”
Su Mulang's eyes suddenly lit up: "Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess is a thousand years old! She is really a timely rain that has solved our urgent need!"
After resting for a day at the inn, the small country's envoys all gave up their carriages and took the train to Beijing instead.
After getting on the train, Majlina looked out the window at the scenery passing by, and her eyes never stopped admiring: "The people of that day are so happy."
Su Mulang loves his country, but he couldn't help but nod when he heard this: "I heard that in their country, education is being vigorously promoted. Even girls can study and become officials and find jobs in the future. ”
The yearning in Majelina's eyes deepened: "Can girls also read and be literate? Can they also be officials?"
Su Mulang knew little about this matter, but there were many Chinese people on the train.
This group of people from the Celestial Dynasty were not surprised to see their obvious foreign features. After all, blond-haired and blue-eyed foreigners can be seen throughout the Celestial Empire and in slightly more prosperous cities. At first, they were afraid that they were monsters, but when they saw them There are so many of them, it’s not surprising at all.
"Isn't this strange? Our country has always emphasized equality between men and women, so we are not as feudal as you foreigners." A middle-aged woman in her forties said with a smile.
Majelina asked again: "Is this also the credit of your Royal Highness the Crown Princess?"
The middle-aged woman shook her head and said: "This is the credit of our Queen. As early as decades ago, after the Second Saint came to court, the Queen issued countless major policies. For people like me, I am in the capital." Work, I took the train this time because I just came back from visiting relatives in my hometown.”
Majelina looked at the middle-aged woman in front of her, her face full of enthusiasm, her whole person looked particularly energetic, and the envy in her heart became even heavier.
"Mom, do you think someone like me who can only dance can find a job in the capital?" Majelina asked cautiously.
After looking her up and down, the middle-aged woman said with emotion: "Daughter, it turns out you are a dancer. No wonder I thought your arms and legs are so thin. If you want to stay, it's easy. There is a song and dance troupe in Beijing." , they recruit people from outside every year. If you are good at dancing, you can be specially recruited. But there is one thing, you cannot stay secretly. You must get the permission of the court, otherwise you will be a gangster! "
Majelina asked again: "Then how can we get permission from the court?"
Su Mulang suddenly became anxious after hearing this conversation: "Majilina, you are the best dancer in our country. Don't you want to go back?"
Majelina's face darkened. She was indeed the top dancer in her country, but she was still not respected by others. If it weren't for the fact that she was dancing, she would have become the plaything of the powerful.
"Don't worry, sir. I remember my mission, but I also want to stay and see how the dance of China is different from that of our country. I am also willing to stay as an envoy of peace and express my surrender to China." Majelina said a lot of high-sounding things.
But Su Mulang already knew in his heart that the beautiful girl in front of him was determined to stay.
The middle-aged woman on the side smiled and said: "Girl, there are many people who think like you, but if you are not strong enough, you will not be able to stay."
Maggielina suddenly felt a sense of crisis. She thought that after arriving in the capital, she must stay in the post house and practice hard to ensure that her performance would be loved by the emperor and the empress.
The middle-aged aunt said again: "In fact, for young girls like you, if you really want to stay, there is another way, that is to marry into our Celestial Empire. However, after the concubine restriction order, each man can only marry one wife. In the past, those dignitaries liked to take one or two Hu Ji. Now even Hu Ji cannot be concubines. There are fewer men willing to marry Hu girls. But you are so beautiful, you will definitely find a Celestial Empire man who is willing to marry you."
Maggielina clenched her fists. In addition to practicing dancing hard, she had a new goal.
After getting off the train, looking at the smooth and smooth cement floor, the group of people couldn't help but be surprised again.
"What is this? Is your entire capital paved with such stones?" Su Mulang asked.
The middle-aged aunt looked at them with a rustic look and said proudly: "This is cement flooring, which is as good as asphalt road. It was just invented and is now being paved in the capital. It will soon be promoted throughout the country."
After saying this, the middle-aged aunt suddenly became excited again and pointed to a place not far away and said: "It's Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess! The road is being paved over there. She is here to inspect the work!"
Majilina and Sumulang followed her line of sight and saw only a young girl with a high ponytail and casual clothes who looked to be in her early twenties.
There were many middle-aged officials around the Crown Princess. She said something casually, and the officials on the side took notes frantically.
The golden sunlight sprinkled on the Crown Princess, coating her whole body with a layer of gold.
Majilina looked at the voice obsessively, and her words could not help but drift: "She... is so dazzling."
