Chapter 53: Ingenuity 2

The attitudes of the emperor and the queen mother were ambiguous before, but the meaning of Concubine Xu's words was obvious, obviously admiring the fan. The faces of all the concubines have changed a little, especially Wang Yuan, whose faces are not dark.

Chu Tianyou heard what the concubine said, and answered with a smile: "Yes, it is the honor of this king to be fortunate to be able to get this fan, and I want to thank the official beauty for her generosity." ”

The fan reached Concubine Xian, who looked at the folding fan in disbelief, and looked at Guanguan's expression in shock. Concubine Xian has been at home since she was a child, and later entered the palace, wearing the best things, and she has seen a lot of treasures, and she has seen a lot of excellent embroidery, but this embroidery in Guanguan, she has to admit that it is ingenious and unseen!

Concubine Chen had already guessed that it was a peerless treasure from the expressions of the previous people, and although she was still amazed when she saw it with her own eyes, she did not exaggerate too much. On the contrary, Yun Yi beside him said happily: "It's so beautiful! Mother, the painting on this fan is so beautiful, it's my sister...... Can that beauty be painted?"

"It's not painted, it's embroidered. As for the other question, Concubine Chen paused for a moment and continued to answer, "She embroidered it." Concubine Chen glanced at Guanguan, and Yun Yi called her "sister"? Could it be that they have always been in touch?

Wang Yuan looked at this fan, and went crazy in disbelief but jealousy. At this moment, where does she still remember the blame of the Queen Mother, even if she does, I am afraid that she can't help it, anyway, she has already offended the Queen Mother, she must not let Guanguan feel better! Wang Yuan sneered: "It's just a fan! What's the big deal!"

After seeing the fan with their own eyes, everyone felt that Wang Yuan was too impulsive when they heard Wang Yuan say such a thing. Although they are also reluctant to admit Guanguan's ability, the folding fan is really underestimated.

Chu Tianyou snorted coldly, too lazy to glance at Wang Yuan. Withdraw the fan from everyone's hands and cherish it extraordinarily. Zigu explained: "If people who can't see the special and unique features of this folding fan are too uninformed! First of all, Da Chu's folding fans are made of tough paper, and I have never heard of using silk cloth to make folding fans; secondly, the fan patterns I have seen before are all painted, and it is hard to imagine that they can be embroidered with embroidery, and they are embroidered so realistically, and they are not lost in painting at all; third, this double-sided embroidery is a mastery that I have only heard of in the book, and the double-sided different drawings are unbelievable!"

After Chu Tianyou finished speaking, those who had a little understanding and contact with embroidery nodded.

Guan Guan secretly praised in his heart, this His Royal Highness King Ning is very knowledgeable. I also helped her a lot today, and she is grateful.

But Wang Yuan didn't have the idea of giving up, seeing that everyone looked like they agreed, he was even more angry, and continued to provoke: "If it is really as rare as His Royal Highness King Ning said, then how did the official beauty complete this fan in such a short time? and how can you prove that it was made by yourself?"

When Wang Yuan said this, everyone was also curious, and they all looked at Guanguan.

Chu Tianze frowned unhappily when he heard this, and was about to reprimand Wang Yuan for being unreasonable, but Guan Guan spoke.

I saw Guan Guan glance at Wang Yuan, and said indifferently: "Let me explain Wang Meiren's first question first." I guess the only thing that is difficult for everyone to understand is the part of the fan-made zuò. First of all, when I first thought of making a folding fan with embroidery, I thought that I had to use cloth instead of tough paper to make the fan surface. The selected cloth close to the color of the painting paper needs to be slurred and drained first, then baked and dried, and finally formed and positioned; secondly, it is necessary to draft on the cloth to trace the basic outline of the painting, which is convenient for the later embroidery to be finalized; finally, due to the particularity of the folding fan, the silk thread used for embroidery must be the thinnest, and the stitches must be fine and smooth, and must not overlap. As for the double-sided embroidery, the process is naturally more complicated, including the problem of how to complete it in a short period of time that Wang Meiren said, which is related to the level of embroidery skills and the full use of time. ”

After Guan Guan finished speaking, everyone was stunned. Calmly and calmly explain the whole process in an orderly manner, so that people can't find mistakes.

Chu Tianze looked at such a confident Guan Guan and smiled. She always looks like she is afraid of being noticed, but she didn't expect that she would be like this when she had no scruples, and she was really well hidden.

Wang Yuanzi didn't eat Guanguan, and continued to ask: "That's a good point." So, let's answer the second question, too!"

Guan Guan said simply: "Okay." ”

I saw Guan Guan return to the box, open the box, and take out a basket containing various colors of silk threads and various embroidery needles from inside.

"Guan Meiren, what are you ......" Chu Tianyou asked suspiciously.

Guan Guan replied with a smile: "His Royal Highness King Ning doesn't know, the last time I arranged for the concubines to perform embroidery, but considering that the folding fan making zuò process is more complicated, the concubines did it first." If you want to watch the show, the concubines can embroider a slightly simpler double-sided embroidered palace fan on the spot. ”

Chu Tianyou wanted to say that it was not necessary, but Concubine Xian, who had not spoken, said: "This palace also wants to see and understand. ”

Guan Guan was noncommittal, and took out the palace fan that had been drawn and embroidered a small part.

"Please allow the emperor to allow the concubines to give the official beauty a beating. Seeing that there was no one to assist Guan Guan, Fang Rou asked Chu Tianze.

Chu Tianze nodded.

"I'm here to help, too. Feng Yanru also walked to Guanguan's side.

Guan Guan smiled at them gratefully.

Fang Rou helped fix the flower bandage, and Feng Yanru helped to thread various silk threads according to different embroidery needles according to Guan Guan's instructions.

Under the gaze of everyone, Guan Guan's hands shuttled back and forth quickly, almost without a pause. After a while, you can see that the pattern of the fan is very different from the previous moment. Maintaining such a superb speed and concentration, it didn't take much effort to complete the remaining part of the palace fan.

Guan Guan flipped the two sides of the palace fan and showed it to everyone. Indeed, the pattern on both sides is different. In such a short period of time, witnessing such embroidery skills, such an impact is shocking to everyone here. Even Wen Xiyue, who knew that Guanguan embroidery skills were exquisite, had to admit that no matter how much she looked down on the art of embroidery in her heart, she was a little shaken after seeing the process of Guanguan embroidery with her own eyes.

Everyone in the hall was silent in the shock brought by Guanguan. In the end, it was Yun Yi who broke the peace. Yun Yi, who was sitting next to Concubine Chen, applauded happily and praised, "It's amazing!"

When Guan Guan heard this, he couldn't help but wink playfully at Yun Yi.

Wang Yuan still snorted disdainfully: "Even if you are skilled in embroidery, what if there is a young lady from a family who specializes in embroidery?

Guan Guan took a deep breath, and finally came to the problem she really needed to face.
