It''s not many days before the end of the year.
There was a heavy snow in Chang''an City last night. The silver clad imperial city looks like a fairy tale world, especially beautiful.
In the streets and alleys of the city, every family pastes peach charms on their doors, and presents a festive atmosphere with lanterns and decorations.
Children dressed like furry balls chased and played in the streets.
From time to time came the loud scolding of the mother sweeping snow in front of the house.
The hustle and bustle of the people gathered around the meat stalls, picking and haggling with the butchers.
Over the years, Chang''an City has become the richest place among these countries, and beef and mutton are no longer rare.
Many young women hold the children in one hand and pick up objects in the other. Do they turn around and tell the children who take them out not to run around.
On the street where the flow of people was intertwined, Tang Hao walked down the long street with several guards in his plush cloak.
Wu Tong and the housekeeper followed Tang Hao from left to right.
Once in a while, I stopped to take a look at the favorite things on the roadside stall.
After confirmation, he waved his hand and said.
"Buy, buy all these."
The housekeeper beside him raised her eyebrows slightly, blushed and said.
"Lord Hou, these silver hairpins are exquisite and small. They are brought by women. I''m afraid you can''t use them if you buy them like this."
Tang Hao smiled and glanced at the female steward beside him.
"As you have said, these are for women. Naturally, they are for servants and maidservants in the house."
Hearing Tang Hao''s words, the steward''s eyes lit up.
Step and shake the hairpin. Which woman won''t like these bright and shiny objects?
The steward glanced at the stall and whispered.
"Lord, these are from the western regions. They are expensive."
Tang Hao waved his hand and said.
"It''s only once a year. I might as well give you a reward."
After that, Tang Hao waved slightly and said.
"Choose some of this food and go home and give it to the maids."
Your housekeeper was overjoyed and smiled. She leaned over the stall and bargained with the vendors.
Wu Tong looked at Tang Hao and said with a wry smile.
"Marquis, you are so attentive to this servant this time. Have you ever thought that there is another person, and you also want to prepare some gifts."
Hearing the reminder in his ear, Tang Hao frowned slightly, looked suspiciously at Wu Tong and said.
"Who?"
Wu Tong came forward and said in his ear.
"Of course it''s the son of heaven!"
"On the occasion of the new year''s Eve, all officials celebrate. This is not only the officials of the Tang Dynasty, but also the envoys of various countries, and even some wealthy businessmen in the Tang Dynasty."
"At the court meeting on the first day of the year, officials above the third grade should offer their birthday to his majesty!"
After hearing this, Tang Hao was slightly stunned.
Logically speaking, the first day of the first month is the beginning of the year.
Such a beautiful occasion even goes to the court and presents to the king of Tang!
When it comes to offering gifts to the king of Tang, Tang Hao is quite curious and asks.
"What gifts have all the officials offered over the years?"
To be honest, the gifts of those dignitaries are nothing more than rare treasures. Tang Hao has seen a lot.
But the gift given to the king of Tang, who was used to seeing rare treasures, made Tang Hao curious.
Wu tonglue pondered and said.
"The king of Tang liked writing and ink. The jade lying Xuanwu inkstone sent by the governor of Liangzhou last year was loved by the king of Tang."
"There is also a nine arch moon wall like the millennium, which symbolizes the prosperity of the royal family and implies beauty. It is also greatly praised by your majesty."
After hearing this, Tang Hao felt bored.
It''s just that these are also some rare treasures, but they are higher than those of the aristocratic family.
It''s just a unique product of the aristocratic family.
Tang haonuzui said.
"I don''t have these rare treasures in my family."
"Besides, even if I encounter these treasures, I''m afraid I''ll empty them."
As soon as this remark came out, Wu Tong also felt helpless and said.
"But now, the Marquis is an official from the second grade. This gift will also be ahead."
"Although our treasure is not rare, it needs some weight."
"Otherwise, it''s not only our faces that are lost in the court, but also the jokes of the neighboring nationalities."
Tang Hao was embarrassed by the mention.
This rare treasure must not be given away at the moment.
Although the book of poems and calligraphy are unique, such birthday gifts have been used for a long time.
If you take it out again this time, on the one hand, there is no new idea, and on the other hand, it is inevitable to be perfunctory.
Thinking for a moment, Tang Hao suddenly made a decision in his heart, smiled and said.
"Yes!"
"Since we want to be unique and unparalleled in the world, let''s make one!"
While talking, the housekeeper got up slowly and said with a touch of embarrassment.
"Lord Hou, I''ve finished my selection."
Looking at a pile of ornaments on the ground, Tang Hao waved handsomely and said.
"If so, buy them all!"
Photographed Wu Tong, who was still confused, Tao.
"Take some hands and be quick."
"We have to prepare gifts for your majesty."
