Chapter 303: Doubts about the Festival

In the blink of an eye, at the beginning of April, the bricks were still being studied, except for the occasional Ziya who came into the palace to ask Huang Xue for some details, and by the way to report the progress, there was nothing else. Most of the time, Huang Xue still focuses on cultivating and taking care of Yin Quan.

In fact, Ziya's research progress could have been faster, but he had a lot of things at hand recently, which delayed him for some time.

On the one hand, he had already taken the opportunity of the new official to visit Ji Chang. This is the main thing he came to sing, but there is no progress now, just seen. When he first arrived, he seemed too enthusiastic, which would make Ji Chang suspicious.

On the other hand, April 10 is the day for the Dashang royal family to worship their ancestors, and it is also the busiest day of the year for his immediate boss, King Anping. Now that he has come to the court to be an official, he still understands the truth of the matter of eating the king and being loyal to the king.

According to the tone revealed by the king of Shang, this year's ancestor worship ceremony is quite unusual for Yin Quan, above the ceremony, he will be the prince of the gift and the king of Shang together incense, after the ceremony, the king of Shang will also officially decree Yin Quan as the crown prince.

In this way, Huang Xue can't wait to ignore it, Yin Quan is now her son, she must help Yin Quan prepare, so as not to have any accidents at this important moment.

In the past few days, she has helped Yin Quan reorder a more fitting dress, the previous one was two years ago, and now it is already a little small.

Seeing Yin Quan change into a newly made dress, it looked quite imposing, and Huang Xue was also extremely satisfied. was about to let the spring equinox take out the old dress and throw it away, but Yin Quan suddenly said: "Back to the mother, this set of clothes was also given to the child by the mother concubine back then, the child is a little reluctant, so let's keep it as a souvenir." ”

When Huang Xue heard this, she was stunned and said, "Is this set of clothes also a gift from me?" After speaking, she instantly understood that this dress should be given by Hu Jiaomei.

Yin Quan nodded and said: "Exactly, did the mother concubine forget? The child still remembers clearly, two years ago, the mother concubine suddenly made this dress for the child two days before the festival, and let the child wear it to participate in the festival, so that the child was really happy." ”

Huang Xue suddenly had doubts in her heart, so calculated, Hu Jiaomei suddenly sent Yin Quan a dress to participate in the ceremony, Yin Quan's mother was still Huang Guifei at that time, Hu Jiaomei did this thing is a little redundant. Could it be that there is something strange about this dress?

Thinking of this, she looked carefully at the old dress and asked, "In that case, do you think there is any difference when you wore this dress to the festival back then?"

Yin Quan said with a smile: "It's also strange to say, it may be that the child was young at that time, and it was the first time he participated in the festival as the eldest prince, and then he couldn't remember what happened at the festival at all." ”

When Huang Xue heard this, she immediately felt a spirit, and there was nothing wrong with these words at first glance, but when you think about it carefully, it is really a little unreasonable.

Since it was the first time to participate in the festival in an important capacity, Yin Quan should have a deep memory, how could he forget it completely? That is, he was almost six years old, how could he not be so unremembered?

Seeing that the dress in her hand was just ordinary clothes, and there was nothing special, she put down her clothes and asked, "Quan'er, don't you remember the festival at all?"

Yin Quan said helplessly: "I really don't remember it at all, but didn't the mother say at the time that the child was too nervous at the time, and her mind was blank, so she would forget? ”

Something is wrong, it's so wrong, the more nervous you are, the more memorable it should be. In this way, combined with the fact that Hu Jiaomei could easily change into Yin Quan that day, there is only one explanation, Yin Quan, who participated in the festival back then, was changed by Hu Jiaomei!

Thinking of this, Huang Xue suddenly moved her mind, asked Yin Quan to go out on her own first, and then called the spring equinox, and asked about Hu Jiaomei's unusual behavior on April 10, two years ago.

After a little recollection of the spring equinox, he said: "Niangniang mentioned this, but the slave and maid remembered it." On the ninth day of April of the previous year, the monster said that he was unwell and wanted to rest on the couch, bolted the door of the dormitory, and did not let the slave and maid serve him for two days. It wasn't until the tenth evening of the first month that the prince came, and she made an appearance. Could it be that Niangniang thinks that she has done something bad in those two days?"

At this time, Huang Xue's heart was already bright, and Yin Quan was changed by Hu Jiaomei, and this matter was already a certainty. It's just that she pretended to be Yin Quan to participate in the festival, what was she for? There were many people at the festival, and it should be difficult for her to hide from everyone what she wanted to do, but why didn't the king of Shang mention anything unusual afterwards?

No, Hu Jiaomei won't do meaningless things, she must have done something, but she didn't think of it.

As a princess, Huang Xue is not qualified to enter the Taimiao Temple, nor can she participate in the festival, so she does not have enough information to reason at this time, so she can only find an opportunity to consult the Shang King.

It's just that now that Yin Quan is about to be canonized, it is really not appropriate to mention this matter to block the Shang king, in case something is really found, he will be angry with Yin Quan and affect the position of the prince, it will be really a disaster.

Now that Huang Xue is also a mother, the way she naturally thinks about problems has also changed a little, so she secretly decided in her heart that after the canonization is over, she will go to the king of Shang to find out about the matter.

On April 10, the ancestor worship ceremony ended successfully, and Yin Quan finally became the crown prince justifiably, so that Huang Xue's ascension to the throne of queen should also enter the countdown stage.

I have to say that it is really a penny, the Qingqiu clan spent a huge price to invite the fake Jiuding made by the famous craftsman of the demon clan, and it was not found at this festival, and it was successfully fooled.

In fact, although the craftsmanship of the demon craftsman is good, after all, it is made according to the pattern, such an antique, and there are no photos or video materials, and it is impossible to have no flaws in the old craftsmanship. It's just that ordinary people don't dare to look at things like Jiuding carefully, and those who can see them have long been tired of it, so there will be such an effect that even Hu Jiaomei herself can't expect.

Two days after the festival, Huang Xue was about to mention her new discovery to the king of Shang, but another thing suddenly happened, so her plan had to be postponed again.

Ziya's bricks were finally successfully developed, and he couldn't wait to send the finished product to Huang Xue. Huang Xue saw that the brick was blue-black, which was quite different from the common red bricks in later generations, and she was also puzzled.

But this is not important, the key is that the hardness of this brick is not much better than the red bricks of later generations, in other words, the quality of this thing has reached the standard and can be put into use.
