Chapter Eighty-Five: Choosing a Thread in a Basket and Embroidering a Painting in My Heart

Luo Yi explained the detailed rules for the retest. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

First, he would give each person a piece of jade the size of a fingernail. This is no ordinary jade, its head and tail are strung with red threads, like a mini pendant, the jade is a flat oval shape, and it is densely carved with small characters that are not visible to the naked eye.

Luo Yi took a jade stone and explained: "If you are selected as an embroidered girl in the inner palace, each of you will be allocated a number of such stones. This stone has an elegant name, called 'Embroidered Heart'. Pinch it in your hand and meditate carefully, you can reflect and save the embroidery in your heart. ā€

"The embroidery in your heart is not about your needlework skills, but about your embroidery talent. However, there have been some minor changes to the four stones. ā€

Luo Yi spread it with one hand, and four identical embroidered hearts appeared in front of the case.

"In the contemporary court, the embroidery skill is recognized as the highest, and his name is Ce Jiumeng. It is said that she was able to embroider three 'seamless' works at the same time within five breaths by herself. Priest Cao should know about this person. Luo Yi looked at Cao Jinling, who was sitting next to him, and asked intentionally.

"After the Divine Master broke through the supreme realm of divine arts, he has been in retreat in the temple. Although I have not seen her real person, I have heard that she was an embroiderer in the court back then, and her embroidery skills are superb, which can be called unparalleled. Cao Jinling told this story flatly, and it seemed that to her, the divine master was nothing.

This strategist had a total of 99 works in the court, of which 9 were "seamless", 49 were "plastered and embroidered", and the rest reached the level of "brocade embroidery".

"These four embroidered pieces contain four drawings made by the master in her early years, as well as a very small part of her own divine thoughts."

"You choose in the order of the preliminary round, and then start embroidering in your hearts."

Luo Yi pointed to the baskets held by the maids on both sides, and continued: "The embroidery threads in these baskets are for you to reduce the difficulty. Some of the embroidery threads used in the court are unusual, and you may not be able to recognize a few with your eyes. ā€

"The finished embroidery of the four drawings is made of the thread in the basket as the material. While you are embroidering your heart, you can walk back and forth for reference. Keep in mind, though, that all the threads are in the four works, so leave aside the confusion first. ā€

"The final result is determined by the self-scoring of these four special embroidered hearts. When the hour comes, you will know when you hand in your embroidery hearts. ā€

"Alright, the retest begins. Nangong Sixteen, you come forward and choose first. ā€

Nangong Sixteen stepped forward and began to carefully select. When she touched the embroidery heart, her expression was sometimes amazed, sometimes dignified, and she chose one of the four embroidery hearts for a long time before she chose one of them.

"Next, Deng Yourong and Cao Xiaoyan stepped forward together."

Chen Fan'er watched the two of them come forward to choose, and had a bad premonition in her heart. She never thought that the ranking of the primary selection would affect the re-examination, and Ce Jiumeng's early works must be difficult and easy. Most likely, what is left to yourself is the hardest.

When the two stepped forward, they were obviously one after the other, and the abnormal thing was that Deng Yourong walked a little slower this time.

Deng Yourong originally relied on himself to have Deng Xingwei as the backstage, and he could be unscrupulously arrogant. Only this time, she felt a little lacking in confidence.

It's no wonder that the dignified government didn't dare to sit down, and directly gave up the position to Cao Jinling; Unfortunately, Cao Xiaoyan is Cao Jinling's sister.

The two stepped forward, saluted Luo Yi and Cao Jinling first, and then began to choose.

Cao Xiaoyan chose from the left, so Deng Yourong could only choose from the right.

Cao Jinling sat upright, her eyes always staring at her sister.

"When I was a kid, I was cute and it was painful. How did you grow up and be so rebellious. It seems that Erniang spoiled her! Cao Jinling thought in her heart, but now she felt that Luo Yi sitting next to her was even worse!

"Luo Yi, the old fox, deserves to be an old man in the officialdom. Now that Xiao Yan has passed the second election, if he is sifted out, it will break the face of my Cao family. When I say it in the future, it will become, 'It's not that Cao Xiaoyan doesn't want to choose an embroidery girl, but she can't choose it at all'. ā€

"Damn, I have written down this hatred. When we go to the Imperial City, we'll count it again! ā€

Although Cao Jinling has broken through the realm of divine arts, she has not experienced much, so Luo Yi can easily make her fall for a few words. Now think about it calmly, there is not much chance of bringing Cao Xiaoyan back this time, if it is really successful, I am afraid that it will be brought back with a disgrace.

At this moment, Cao Xiaoyan had gently put down the second embroidered heart, ready to touch the one Deng Yourong had touched first.

Chen Fan'er stood in place, not idle, she used her spare eyes to scan the baskets in the hands of the two rows of maids beside her, and memorized the color of the embroidery thread first.

After a while, Cao Xiaoyan first chose the embroidery heart.

At this time, Deng Yourong's face was a little ugly. After touching the three embroidered hearts, in her judgment, it should be the first one that is the easiest. Unexpectedly, Cao Xiaoyan chose without hesitation.

"I'm so angry, everyone comes out to fight me!" Deng Yourong's eyes seemed to be breathing fire, but it was not easy to attack, so she could only retreat and choose the third one.

After the election, Deng Yourong pouted and stood back in place, but when she came down, she deliberately gloated and glanced at Chen Fan'er.

"Cheng Fan'er, come up and get the embroidered heart."

Chen Fan'er stepped forward, still saluting first in accordance with the rules.

Cao Jinling also took a look at it normally. After four years, Chen Fan'er's appearance and temperament have changed, and it stands to reason that he should be unrecognizable.

"We've met?" Cao Jinling's thin eyebrows were slightly raised, she was more sensitive than Cao Xiaoyan, and her cultivation of magic skills happened to strengthen her memory.

Chen Fan'er gave her a sense of dƩjƠ vu, which did not come from her appearance, nor from her temperament, but from her breath.

Yes, the little girl who was carrying the white horse back then, and Qin Yanshuang, who almost ruined his Divine Dao back then, all had this kind of aura.

Chen Fan'er expected this kind of thing to happen, and tried her best to calm her heart, and replied: "The Minnu was born in Qingshui County, and she has long admired the name of Divine Officer Cao. ā€

"Hmm." Cao Jinling carefully searched the memories in her mind, but there seemed to be some discrepancies, "It turned out to be a fellow villager in Qingshui County, well, you go down." ā€

Returning to her original position and standing still, Chen Fan'er began to touch the embroidery heart itself.

"Boom", his heart was shocked slightly, Chen Fan'er's eyes suddenly went dark, and in the blink of an eye, another white cloth appeared in front of him.

"This is ......" Chen Fan'er carefully looked at the rough sketch drawn on the white cloth, and suddenly felt a little surprised.

At this time, Cao Jinling took the initiative to ask Luo Yi: "Lord Luo, the four embroidered hearts seem to be difficult and easy to differ, is this fair to them?" ā€

Lord Luo smiled slightly, and replied: "It is worthy of Lord Priest, you can see the contents without touching the embroidered heart." Yes, the difficulty of the four embroidered works is different, but they are generally in the level of 'brocade embroidery'. If you want to say that it is the most difficult, I am afraid it is the work in the hands of this Cheng Faner. ā€

Cao Jinling nodded slightly and stopped making a sound.

Chen Fan'er looked at the drawing again and again, and felt that her heart was clenched very tightly.

"Okay, the retest begins, time limit, three sticks of incense!" (To be continued.) )
