Chapter 173: Preparation

In the Yongxin Palace, Li Feng'er had just put away the medicine sent by Daniel Zhang, when she heard a sound outside, she quickly got up to greet her, and saw Emperor Deqing walking towards her.

Li Feng'er stepped forward with a smile: "Your Majesty has been busy dealing with government affairs these days, but there are times when I haven't come to my Yongxin Palace." ”

Emperor Deqing took Li Feng'er's hand into the house: "Does Feng'er want to die?" ”

Li Feng'er smiled even more, and she didn't have much shame, and said happily: "I don't want it to be fake, I would like Your Majesty to be by my side at all times, but I also know that this is impossible, so I want to be closer to Your Majesty before other sisters enter the palace, but Your Majesty doesn't even let me get my wish." ”

"But it's vinegar again." Emperor Deqing smiled very happily, waved Gong E away, he sat on the chair, pulled Li Feng'er into his arms and hugged him carefully: "My Feng'er is actually a small vinegar jar." ”

Li Feng'er raised her sleeves and sniffed: "It's really a little sour, if you ask Your Majesty to come to my Yongxin Palace often, even if you soak it in the vinegar jar every day, I am also willing." ”

Emperor Deqing hugged Li Feng'er and sighed, and said: "I know Feng'er's intentions, and I will live up to Feng'er." ”

Li Feng'er hung her head, and said in her heart, why don't you say that you won't let others enter the palace, but the two of us stay together, saying that they don't live up to me, but I don't know that they have already failed me now.

She forced a smile: "I understand in my heart, it's just, it's just that if the queen mother and the sisters next to her enter the palace, I hope that Your Majesty will come to see Feng'er more in our past relationship." ”

While speaking, Li Feng'er broke out of Emperor Deqing's embrace, turned around and took down the guqin hanging on the wall: "I have nothing to do in the past few days, so I made a song, Your Majesty and listen to it." ”

Emperor Deqing was overjoyed when he heard it, and hurriedly asked Li Fenger to play, Li Fenger washed his hands and lit incense, sat in front of the desk, first purified his heart, and then put his hands on the piano to pluck the strings.

Emperor Deqing listened attentively, and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, and when Li Feng'er finished playing, he also sat down and played a song of Phoenix Seeking Huang, and finally said: "I can't be the only person in my life like the first emperor, but I can make a promise to Feng'er, no matter how Feng'er is in this life and this life, I will treat you today." ”

Li Feng'er laughed: "Your Majesty is so boring, let's not talk about this, now that the weather is getting hotter and hotter, I think how about we have a barbecue by the pool in the imperial garden when we have free time at night?" ”

"Barbecue, this is good." When Emperor Deqing heard this, he changed his previous sad face, and he was immediately overjoyed, and stroked his palms and said: "Since I ate your brother's barbecue in the restaurant last year, I haven't eaten that taste again." ”

Li Feng'er blinked mischievously: "I specially asked my brother for advice before entering the palace, and I also learned the ingredients he made, so I promised to ask my majesty to eat enough." ”

Speaking of this, Li Feng'er got up and pulled Deqing to the side and left: "Your Majesty, this queen mother who has been pulling out the sun for a long time must be boring, why don't we call her together." ”

Emperor Deqing is a filial son, he also knows that since the death of Emperor Ming Qi, the Queen Mother is often depressed, and her heart is very much missing Emperor Ming Qi, so as soon as she is free, she will go to Shou'an Palace to accompany the Queen Mother to laugh, after Li Fenger entered the palace, she asked Li Fenger to go to Shou'an Palace often, and tell the Queen Mother some folk tales to relieve her heart.

Now when I heard that Li Feng'er wanted to ask the Queen Mother to play together, I naturally couldn't wait for it, so I pulled Li Feng'er and ran out, it happened that Yinhuan was about to enter the door, and the three of them bumped into each other for a while, Yinhuan quickly knelt down and asked for guilt, and Emperor Deqing waved his hand: "Get up, it's okay." ”

Waiting for Yinhuan to get up, Li Feng'er asked with a smile: "What are you doing in such a hurry?" ”

Yinhuan hurriedly lowered his voice, and smiled at Emperor Deqing again: "The slave wants to say a happy event to the lady of the official family." ”

"What's the happy event?" Emperor Deqing also aroused some interest.

Yinhuan took out some silver tickets from his sleeve: "This is the dividend sent by the Gu family recently, and the slave wants to hand it over to the lady to call the lady and the official family, and it just so happens that the official family is also there, so it will be with the official family." ”

Emperor Deqing took the silver ticket and looked at it a few times, and was suddenly shocked: "This, this little umbrella is also so valuable." ”

Li Feng'er glared at him: "That's not an ordinary umbrella, the Gu family takes the high-quality route, and the umbrella made is exquisite and rich, even if the cost is a hundred or ten taels of silver, and then sell it, you can't double the profit, and you will naturally get more profits." ”

"That's not going to be like this...... Emperor Deqing wanted to say too much, but before he finished speaking, he heard Li Feng'er say: "The Gu family has been in business for so many years, and the business road doesn't know where to go, I can't say, everyone sells this umbrella to Fanbang, and His Majesty only takes his family's money, regardless of how he earns it." ”

Yinhuan also said: "I heard the eldest lady say, although the Gu family is a businessman, but in a few lifetimes of business is the most honest, before his family opened a medicine shop in Jiangnan, next to the pharmacy or also sell some fake medicines, but the Gu family will never be fake, that is, the business can also be done without bullying, the eldest lady also said that the ancestors of the Gu family set up a family motto when they started a business, and the descendants of the Gu family should build a family with integrity, and they must not be abducted and deceived, if they violate this discipline, they will be expelled from the Gu family, and they will not be allowed to enter the ancestral grave after death. ”

"In this way, I am relieved." Emperor Deqing thought about the information sent by the commander of the Eastern Mansion, but it was consistent with what Li Luan'er said, knowing that Li Luan'er did not coax him, and Li Feng'er was also sincere to him, but he was relieved, so he decided to use the Gu family.

He put away the silver ticket, took Li Feng'er to Shou'an Palace, and talked to the Queen Mother about the barbecue at night, and the Queen Mother happily agreed.

Emperor Deqing accompanied the Queen Mother for a while, and then pointed out that there was something to do and hurriedly said goodbye, and Li Fenger read to the Queen Mother in Shou'an Palace for a while and quit.

When she returned, she asked someone to go to the imperial dining room to get a grill and charcoal, as well as some meat, vegetables and all kinds of spices, and began to prepare for the barbecue in the evening.

But said that on this day, Mrs. Jin called Li Luan'er and gave her a lecture on the head, Li Luan'er then remembered that the flower-viewing banquet of the princess was about to start in less than ten days, and for a while she thought that her new clothes were not made, and the jewelry did not match, so she had the heart not to go, but Mrs. Jin was up to her, so she just asked someone to measure the size with Li Luan'er, and went to the Gu family next door, and asked Mrs. Gu to be a staff officer.

After tossing like this for two days, after finally picking out the materials, Mrs. Jin asked Gu Xin to draw the tricks, and asked the female workers of the Gu family embroidery workshop to work day and night to make two new clothes for Li Luan'er.

As for jewelry, Li Luan'er usually doesn't like those gold and silver headdresses, nor does she like flowers and powder, although Mrs. Jin also has valuable jewelry, but these are all old for many years, although the color is full, even the gems on it are not common to see, but it is also time-consuming to dismantle and replay.

Fortunately, the Gu family is not short of this, Gu Xin is the most generous character, and dragged Li Luan'er to personally select a few pieces of jewelry for her, Mrs. Jin saw that the jewelry sent by Gu Xin was very valuable, knowing that the child was sincere, she did not shirk it, and asked Li Luan'er to accept it, and when she turned around, she picked out a necklace of pearls from her private room, and a few large red sapphires for Gu Xin, only said that Gu Xin had to make two sets of heads and faces, so as to make a dowry.

In this way, after several days of busy work, I finally prepared a qiē before the flower-viewing feast.

Mrs. Jin was still not at ease, so she asked the craftsman to decorate the carriage at home, and Li Luan'er, who saw it, couldn't help but say that she didn't need it.

But Mrs. Jin nodded her head and said: "Where do you understand the truth of respecting clothes first and then respecting people in this world, and anyone can go to the flower-viewing banquet in the palace, but whoever goes must be those high-ranking ladies and ladies, saying that it is a flower-viewing banquet, flower-viewing is secondary, and clothing appreciation is the key, If it's just you, but now you are the sister of the virtuous concubine, if you are really poor, it is inevitable that those people will look down on Feng'er in private, and you can't say that in the future, when the high-ranking gate in Beijing sees our family, you will have to step on it, and the concubine next to you will enter the palace in the future, and you can't say that you will also use this to damage Feng'er, you are not afraid of this, but you also have to consider for others. ”

Mrs. Jin's words completely woke up Li Luan'er, she was careless, but this son also paid attention to it, and tried on clothes and jewelry very cooperatively, and put on makeup in person before leaving.

The Li family's fat powder shop is about to open, and her son Li Luan'er has a lot of fat powder on hand, so she used these fat powders to make a light makeup, and she is beautiful and unique, which is similar to the light makeup of modern nude makeup, it is even more natural beauty and difficult to give up.

As soon as the pink blue dress woven from the western Xinjiang silk was worn, and the sea-blue epiphany pattern embroidered according to the pattern painted by Gu Xin, it made Li Luan'er look forward to the brilliance, fresh and pleasant.

Mrs. Jin personally put on a yarn pile of epiphany, and the other side of the sideburns is a string of deep sea blue pearls made of flowers, trembling and slightly hanging to the ear, to the end, is a finely crafted teardrop-shaped blue crystal, just this jewelry, not to mention the value, but it is very suitable for Li Luan'er, more suitable for this hot summer, after Li Luan'er dressed up, people only saw it, and felt a burst of coolness into their hearts.

Mrs. Jin praised Li Luan'er, sent her out, personally sent her into the carriage, and went back with some worry when she saw the carriage go away.

She is an old man, although she never said anything in front of Li Luan'er, but in her selfish heart she always felt that this flower-viewing banquet in the palace was not simple, as if there was some conspiracy in the meantime.

It's just that Mrs. Jin also knows that Li Luan'er is not an ordinary woman, it is her brute strength, and others want to calculate her, but she is afraid that she will not succeed, rather than guessing at home and not daring to do anything, it is better not to say anything, let Li Luan'er go, she wants to see what the idea of staying in the palace is.
