Chapter 186: The Legend of the Four Leaves
Princess Ruolan took a breath lightly and said with a smile: "It's good if the wind blows, the fragrance of flowers just wafts here." ”
Mama frowned slightly: "The princess will be uncomfortable if the wind blows into her head carefully." ”
"Okay, Mama Hai, I'll pay attention, just let me sit down again, it's very stuffy in the hall." Princess Ruolan's voice is very delicate, like this fragrant evening breeze.
This is the first beauty in Kyoto, Princess Ruolan.
"The princess is bored, you can go to Princess Ruoqing and talk to them."
Princess Ruolan shook her head: "Ruoqing and I can't talk, Ruoying and she ...... Mama Hai, let's go out of the palace tomorrow for a walk. ”
"Princess, this can't be helped, I'm afraid the emperor won't agree."
"Father will agree, won't it happen to be Fleur in three days? I didn't go out to the Hibiscus meeting last year. ”
When it comes to the Hibiscus Club, Mama Hai disagrees: "That kind of messy festival, why should the princess participate?" ”
"In the past, it was said to be a small festival, but this year is different, Ruoying wants to do a happy event with this hibiscus." Princess Ruolan said, covering her mouth and laughing, "Maybe there will be a lot of excitement to see." Ah, I'm going to beg my father to let me go out of the palace. ”
Ruolan picked up the dance pendulum and ran out.
"Princess, princess, slow down!" Mama Hai and a few palace maids hurriedly chased after her.
The emperor is diligent and studious, and he is usually still in the imperial study at this time, and he even uses dinner in the imperial study for a lot of time.
Ruolan had just walked to the door of the study, and before he could go up the steps, he heard a loud cough.
She frowned and said to the husband who greeted her: "Father-in-law." Father is not comfortable? ”
"Back to the princess, the emperor ......"
Before he finished speaking, the emperor's voice sounded inside: "Is it Ruolan?" In. ”
The father-in-law hurriedly got out of the way, Ruolan ran in with the hem of his skirt, and saw the emperor leaning on a Taishi chair, rubbing his eyebrows with his hands.
"Father, what's wrong with you?"
The emperor put down his hand and said, "It's okay. Ruolan came to me to get out of the palace? ”
Ruolan was surprised: "How does my father know? ”
"You've been stuffy in the palace for so long, and I guess it's almost the same." The emperor smiled and shook his head: "Kyoto is not very calm now. It's better not to go out. ”
"Father! You are not fair! Why did you agree if Ruoying wanted to go out? She's going to that Hibiscus Club. I'm going too! ”
"You're different from Ruoying."
"What's the difference?" Ruolan disagreed: "Is it just because Ruoying knows kung fu?" If it weren't for your father saying that I was weak, I would have learned kung fu! "Besides, Ruoying is just whipping to make it better, although she doesn't know kung fu. But she has a better brain than Ruoying.
The Emperor was just about to speak. Another menacing cough.
Ruolan hurriedly walked over. Gently smoothed his chest for him, and asked anxiously, "Father, what's wrong with you?" I'll have people pass on the Imperial Doctor! ”
The emperor waved his hand, and finally stopped coughing. Ruolan wiped the tears coughed up from the corners of his eyes with his own handkerchief, and said distressedly: "Why don't you pass on the imperial doctor?" Hasn't my father's body always been very haode? ”
"The Imperial Doctor has already come, it's not in the way, it's just that I caught a cold last night." When the emperor coughed, his spirit seemed to be a little bad suddenly, and he suddenly changed his words: "If you really want to go out, let one of your imperial brothers go with you, and bring more people." ”
"Really? Father, you agreed? Princess Ruolan was very happy, tilted her head and said to him, "Father, do you want to go out to have a good time?" Father, you haven't been out of the palace for a long time, have you? ”
The Emperor smiled and did not answer.
Hibiscus, in fact, is also a lotus. In Kyoto, the lotus flower is a relatively delicate flower. The hibiscus will actually be a flower viewing party, but in this flower viewing party men and women are relaxed, men and women can play side by side to enjoy the flowers, and men and women can sit at a table and talk about poetry and tea.
It is also a blind date meeting in disguise.
Young men and women are with each other, and there are many people with elders who go to each other for their children.
The location is in a royal annex on Kyoto South Street.
This courtyard is the one of a prince of the previous dynasty, occupies a huge area, the scenery inside is extremely beautiful, there are more than a dozen large and small lotus ponds. Later, the previous dynasty was overthrown, and the founding emperor of the Dayu Dynasty turned this place into a semi-closed and semi-open special place, usually the emperor and grandson nobles have some identities can come in to play, and when the envoys of other countries come, it will be closed into a high-standard embassy, and the royal family will occasionally hold a big banquet here.
The name of this place is Range Rover Park. There is no identity, and there is only one opportunity a year to enter, however, there will be a limit to those who do not have an identity, and not everyone can go.
Rao Xuekong became interested as soon as he heard this, the extremely beautiful ancient garden, there is only one chance to enter it once a year! She's going to have to join in the fun!
Moreover, she also wants to take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune.
I don't know if Jin Xiaohan and Han are leaving? If she did, she could ask them for help.
She was even a little depressed that she had only heard about it now, otherwise she would have been able to prepare earlier.
If you want to make money, you naturally have to have helpers, and she alone will definitely not work.
Rao Xuekong thought of a way to make money quickly was to make jewelry.
She didn't dare to underestimate the handicraft skills and aesthetics of the ancients, those antique hand-made ornaments unearthed before, although they were rougher than the modern craftsmanship, but they were also extremely beautiful, her things were going to be a blockbuster or a sensation as soon as she made a splash, she didn't dare to think, no matter how good the things of an era were, in the eyes of a modern person who has seen thousands of years of culture, there is some singleness and limitations, she starts from this aspect, trying to make a fortune. And there's not much time, and she can't do much.
When Mrs. Rao took a few mothers-in-law to open the land behind Rao's house to plant vegetables, Rao Xuekong was locked in the study alone to draw and write all day.
After drawing the drawings, she called Ling Ling, "Ling Ling, do you know where there are craftsmen with better work?" ”
Ling Ling was stunned: "The slave only knows where there is a gold and silver shop, and the craftsman doesn't know." ”
Rao Xuekong asked Qingqing and even Hua Yang again, but he didn't know. They also said that generally only large families make their own jewelry, like them, they usually choose from small gold jewelry shops. Because the jewelry you create is expensive.
Rao Xuekong really doesn't know this. However, she was very happy to hear it, which means that her jewelry can be sold for a higher price.
"Xuekong, what are you busy with all day long? Look at this sweaty face, don't get tired. "Mrs. Rao came to Jingxue Courtyard, and I didn't see her go out for a day, so I couldn't help but come over to care.
"Mother, I want to play jewelry."
"Jewelry?" When Mrs. Rao heard this, her first reaction was, trouble, she doesn't have any extra silver to give her jewelry now! The second reaction is. I really wronged this kid. I don't even have jewelry! The third thought was that maybe she went and used some of her jewelry as pawns, and took the silver to make new jewelry for Xue Kong. "What kind of jewelry does Xuekong want to make? looks so beautiful, and is the same age as a flower. It's time to wear a few more pieces of jewelry. Tell my mother. Mother is going to call you. ”
Mrs. Rao was embarrassed for the first time, and Rao Xuekong didn't see it. When I heard her words again, my heart warmed, and I took two steps forward to hold her hand. said: "Mother, I didn't want it myself, I want to sell it." ”
"What?" Mrs. Rao was surprised: "You are going to sell jewelry?" Snow sky, how does this make! You are my Miss Rao, how can you show up to be that businessman? This doesn't work, my mother absolutely disagrees! ”
Rao Xuekong didn't expect Mrs. Rao to object so much, she was stunned for a moment, and said, "Mother, I will pay attention, I won't go out to do this as Miss Rao, don't worry." ”
"No, no, I don't agree with anything, are you worried about your family? Hua Yang, what nonsense did you talk about in front of Miss? Mrs. Rao glared back at Hua Yang.
Hua Yang said aggrievedly: "Madam, the slave doesn't have it." ”
"Mother, it's not about flowers, you know, I used to be alone, so I had to think of some way to earn money? Otherwise, I'll starve to death. ”
Saying this, Mrs. Rao felt sorry for her again: "I've hurt you, but don't you have a father and mother now?" If your father knew you were doing this, he would be so sad that he wouldn't be able to eat. ”
Rao Xuekong knew that saying this had no effect, so he pulled her into the study: "Mother, you come in and take a look, and then talk about it." ”
Entering the study, she showed Mrs. Rao the jewelry drawings she had drawn.
This first thing hooked Mrs. Rao's eyes.
Rao Xuekong painted a set of four-leaf clover-shaped ornaments, accompanied by detailed instructions for its creation, and also wrote the name of the set.
"Legends?" Madame Rao had never seen such a shape, and she felt very strange and chic, and the name made her very curious.
Rao Xuekong took another stack of papers, picked up the one on it and handed it to her.
Mrs. Rao only discovered another point at this time: "Ah, Xuekong's hand-hairpin flower is simply very well written!" I'll have to show your dad this! He's probably going to be full of praise! ”
"Mother, look at the content, look at the content."
"Oh, yes, yes." Mrs. Rao looked at it, it was a description of the legend.
Rao Xuekong naturally listed this era as ancient China, so there will be no clover and clover here in this era, and she naturally can't write legends about the West, and it is estimated that the people here are not very acceptable. She only wrote simply, saying that there is a grass called clover in this world, with a clover pattern next to it, and then it is possible to find a four-leaf clover among ten thousand clovers, so the four-leaf clover is a symbol of luck, and if you find the four-leaf clover, you can find happiness, and the wish in your heart will be fulfilled.
Who hasn't wanted happiness and luck throughout the ages?
In addition, the pattern of this grass is expressed by Rao Xuekong in a beautified painting method, which is very novel and chic in the eyes of people in this era.
Mrs. Rao read this explanation and fell in love with the four-leaf clover even more. "It's so pretty, Yukiku, how did you come up with it? Where have you seen this grass? ”
Rao Xuekong said: "I can't remember, maybe I heard and watched it when I was a child, did I forget?" I don't remember exactly what happened when I was a child. (To be continued......)
