After the second of February, Zeng Rong was busy again, as the weather warmed up and the days became longer, she stayed in the workshop more and more, and everyone knew that she was in a hurry to work during this time, and no one dared to disturb her.

On the third day of the third month of March, on the morning of the Shangsi Festival, Zeng Rong finally drove out this regular clothes, and after handing over the clothes to Liu Chunmiao, Zeng Rong wanted to go back to the dormitory to make up for a stable sleep, and besides, the winter woolen clothes and thick cotton clothes should also be cleaned and tidyed, she has been busy, piled up there for some days.

Who knew that Zeng Rong had just taken his futon out to dry, and Liu Chunmiao came to her, saying that she was going to see the Queen Mother with her, and just gave her half a day off to play with Amei.

"Auntie, is it appropriate for me to go?" For some reason, Zeng Rong had a hunch that something was not good and he didn't want to go.

"What's out of place? How many people want this opportunity yet, are you stupid? Liu Chunmiao didn't say a word, and pulled Zeng Rong to leave.

"Auntie, today is the Shangsi Festival, will there be any activities in the palace?" Zeng Rong asked as she walked, she was afraid that she would run into those people she didn't want to see again, just like on February 2.

"Don't worry, the Queen Mother won't participate in any activities, she's old and doesn't like to join in this kind of excitement."

"Are you sure she won't go, and no one else will come to her?" Zeng Rong was not at ease and asked again.

"Let's go, you think that the emperor and the queen are what you want to see, there are people who have never seen the emperor in the palace all their lives, don't be satisfied." Liu Chunmiao knew what her heart disease was, and teased her.

As soon as he said this, Zeng Rong could only shut up.

After touching a stick of incense, Zeng Rong and Liu Chunmiao stood outside the gate of Cining Palace, still waiting for the eunuch to go in and report, the two of them entered the courtyard again, and there was still a palace maid to take the package in Liu Chunmiao's hand, Zeng Rong and Liu Chunmiao were still waiting in the courtyard, the difference was that this time the palace maid knew Liu Chunmiao and greeted each other.

Later, the palace maid came out and beckoned to Liu Chunmiao, who took Zeng Rong into the main hall together.

Zeng Rong didn't dare to look up, and the two didn't stop in the main hall, and followed the palace maid into the first room in the east, where an old lady with gray hair and kind eyebrows was sitting on the kang, and on the kang table in front of her was the regular clothes that Zeng Rong had just completed, and the old lady's eyes were staring at the longevity characters on the regular clothes.

Seeing this, Zeng Rong chuckled first.

"Liu Chunmiao, the head of the Female Red Division of the Slave and Maid Labor Bureau, knocked to see the Queen Mother." Liu Chunmiao knelt down.

Zeng Rong also knelt down and reported his name.

"Get up." The Queen Mother spoke, she couldn't hear her joy or anger, she was very calm.

Zeng Rong waited for Liu Chunmiao to stand up before he got up, and didn't dare to raise his head, but he vaguely felt that a gaze fell on top of her head.

"The Empress Dowager Qi, this Zeng Rong is the embroiderer who embroidered this regular dress, the longevity on it was written by herself, and this hollow stitch method is also her own original, and the Queen Mother is asked to correct the deficiencies." Liu Chunmiao saw that the Queen Mother looked at Zeng Rong and hurriedly introduced.

"Empress Dowager Qi, this font is not written by the slave maid, because the slave maid has limited learning, and only about 20 different longevity characters are written, so I asked Aunt Qin for help, and the slave forgot to inform Aunt Liu about this, it is the slave's fault." Zeng Rong knelt down and explained.

Sure enough, a woman's intuition is a good thing, but unfortunately, she regrets it too late.

No wonder Liu Chunmiao had to bring her, she was waiting for her here.

Those fonts are obviously different from Zeng Rong's previous embroidery, and they obviously look like a man's pen, Liu Chunmiao has to say that it was written by Zeng Rong, and it is difficult for Zeng Rong not to doubt her intentions.

This is to block her way into Cining Palace.

And the reason why Zeng Rong chose to tell the truth was because she suspected that eighty percent of this character was written by the second prince Zhu Heng, and the Empress Dowager didn't know this font, so she would stare at the longevity character on this regular clothes.

"How old are you?" Seeing that Zeng Rong took the initiative to clarify, the Queen Mother's face softened.

"Back to the Queen Mother, the slave maid is thirteen years old."

"Thirteen? So small? Ever studied? ”

Although Zeng Rong was impatient for everyone who saw her to ask these same questions, she still answered them in a proper manner.

"You really created this stitch?" The Queen Mother touched the lace on it and asked.

"Back to the Queen Mother, yes." After Zeng Rong finished speaking, he repeated the original intention of grinding this set of needles by himself, focusing on accidental coincidences, not deliberate thinking.

Zeng Rong explained, the queen mother remembered the queen's phoenix wearing peony clothes, that set of clothes is really eye-catching, whether it is the pair of phoenixes or the clusters of golden peonies are particularly eye-catching, at first they thought it was sent from the south, but later they learned that it was sent by the Shanggong Bureau, saying that it was embroidered by a little girl.

"How long have you been learning embroidery?" The Queen Mother asked.

She thought of Amei, as if she heard Amei say that she had a little sister who entered the palace with her on the side of the Shanggong Bureau, and most of those purses were made by her, which was very aura.

"Back to the Queen Mother, it's been a year."

"It's only been a year?" The Queen Mother didn't believe it, and her face was displeased.

"Back to the Queen Mother, it was only a year to really learn embroidery. The slave maid comes from the countryside, the family is poor, from primary school to sew clothes, the stitches are quite smooth, in February of the old year, follow Granny Liu to learn to embroider silk handkerchiefs and purses, in April into Beijing, in the splendid workshop for five months of embroidery, embroidery skills are that will be improved. Zeng Rong still knelt on the ground and said.

When the Queen Mother heard about the Splendid Fang, she knew that Zeng Rong was the girl in Amei's mouth, and some believed Zeng Rong's words, not to mention anything else, those paintings and poems and those Zen words did have aura, and they couldn't reach this realm without a certain amount of talent.

At the beginning, she mistakenly thought that Amei was this girl, so she acquiesced to Liu An to send her in, just because she was curious and wanted to see what kind of character and talent the other party had.

It's a pity that she was disappointed, Liu An actually got a fake.

In a fit of rage, she reprimanded Liu An, and she was not even interested in Amei and the girl in Amei's mouth.

It's just that I didn't expect that after going around and around, this girl finally came to her.

Could it be that this is also providential?

That's it, since you're here, you might as well learn more about it and see if this is a real talent or another fake?

"Since you are from the countryside and your family is poor, how can you learn to read and draw?" The Queen Mother asked.

Zeng Rong had to study the part where he lived in the academy, but he didn't dare to say that it was because of a break with his family, but only that he was learning to identify herbs for his apprenticeship, and because he had to memorize the names of various herbs, he learned to read and draw.

"You mean, you used to collect medicine?"

Zeng Rong heard that there seemed to be a little surprise in the Queen Mother's tone, hesitated for a moment, and replied: "The Queen Mother, the slave is stupid, she has only studied for two months, and she will only know some common herbs in our local area. ”

There was no way, she could only lower herself.
