"What a Miss Night Four, I didn't know that the granddaughter of the old general was such a person. Or, if you want me to be a master craftsman, I will lend you a master craftsman. No! It's for you! Yingjia craftsmen have been passed down from generation to generation, the first in the world, and in my generation, I am the head of the Ying family, and all the craftsmen are under my orders. ”

Ying Peng stood up and looked at Ye Wenyan seriously, "I will give you two of the best craftsmen and give them their deeds, and from now on they will be used by you, and you will obey your life." And I promise hereby that if one day the old grievances are repaid and reported in the hands of the fourth lady, I will hand over the entire Ying family to you, and the skilled craftsmen are all yours. ”

Zhu Hai gave it to Ying Peng, and Ye Wenyan also walked out of the jewelry pavilion with the token that Ying Peng gave her.

Before leaving, Lin Dongjia personally sent her, and she stopped talking.

Ye Wenyan said with a smile: "Lin Dongjia doesn't have to think too much, my jewelry shop won't open in the inner city, and there aren't many people from outside the city who buy your jewelry shop." The nobles in the inner city usually don't like to go to the outer city to buy things, because they think that wearing the things sold in the shops in the outer city is a loss, so the two of us basically don't have competition. ”

Lin Dongjia was a little embarrassed when Ye Wen said the central matter, and waved his hand again and again: "Where did the fourth lady say, how could I care about this." I just want to say that if Miss Fourth needs help, please don't be polite to me. ”

Leaving the Jewelry Pavilion, he asked Ye Wenyan with Shen'er: "Miss, are we going back to the house?" ”

Ye Wenyan shook his head, "Let's go directly to the palace." ”

"Into the palace?" Shen'er was stunned for a moment, and then remembered the two Ying family craftsmen that Ying Peng had promised, "Miss, go to Kit Kat Pavilion to ask for someone now?" Shall we go find someone ourselves? That Mr. Ying is also really, since he wants to give people to Miss, he should first call them out of the palace and let them quit the errand of Kit Kat Pavilion, so that they can do it elsewhere. What is the matter with us going to ask for someone? Can Kit Kat say yes? The little maid said while calculating, "Why don't you go to Yanhua Palace for help after entering the palace?" ”

Ye Wenyan pinched her face and said very seriously: "Listen, Shen'er, we don't have a reason to ask for help before we do anything. Even if it is Yanhua Palace, it should not be said to stretch out your hand. I don't care what others think, but I always rely on myself, not men. He can be strong enough to defend the world, and what I seek is to stand side by side with him and resist all responsibilities, rather than the burden of asking him for help when it comes to small things. Got it? ”

Shen'er didn't understand, "Aren't men supposed to protect women and help women?" ”

Ye Wenyan shook his head, "There are not so many shoulds, in this world, no one is obliged to protect and help others unconditionally." The original purpose of a man and a woman together should be to make each other happy and happy. As for who protects whom, it's all an accessory other than the original intention. I am not the kind of delicate woman who is your young lady, nor is it the character of begging someone when I encounter something, I am more willing to bear the wind and rain with him than to be protected by a man. So I hope you can also remember what I said today, and when you get married in the future, you must always remember that you are an independent woman who can do what you need to do on your own, and you don't need anyone to help. In this way, your man and your in-laws will look at you higher, and they will not feel that you can't leave their house, so as to suppress you in a mansion and rush your life. ”

Shen'er seems to understand whether she understands or not, Ye Wenyan's words are different from what she has heard and seen since she was a child, and even subverts the deep-rooted concept of marriage, as well as the way men and women get along. But if I think about it, I suddenly realize that if I can really live a life like the young lady said, that is the most enjoyable way to live. If a woman can really rely on herself and not rely on her in-laws, she can stand up at any time.

Ye Wenyan entered the palace, but there was still no obstruction. The palace forbidden army now remembers the night Wen Yan more than the queen mother, and never forgets to remind themselves that Miss Yesi is a celebrity in this palace, and there are a few people who clearly know that the red man still holds the soul breaking bell of Lord Emperor Zun in his hand. So don't say that Miss Yesi wants to enter the palace, she just wants to burn the palace, and they don't dare to care.

The forbidden army didn't care, but the palace people walking in the palace still spread this matter quickly.

The first to know the news was Yong'an Palace, and when Bao Chan told the news to the Empress Dowager Li, the Empress Dowager Li was trembling in front of one of her cabinets. Bao Chan was puzzled, so he asked, "Niangniang, what's wrong?" ”

Empress Dowager Li pointed to the corner of the cabinet and asked her, "Where is that atlas?" ”

Bao Toad was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that what the Queen Mother said should be the treasure book from the Kit Kat Pavilion. The thing came from the skillful craftsman Ying Peng, and the mother has always kept it as a treasure, but at this time the thing is no longer in the place where it was originally placed.

Bao Toad searched for it in the cabinet until he rummaged through the whole cabinet, and he still couldn't find anything.

She was also a little scared, "This cabinet has always been locked, and the palace people who come in to sprinkle and sweep will not approach it, and the slaves and maids have not moved, why are things gone?" ”

Empress Dowager Li sat back in her chair, the more she thought about it, the more wrong it became, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that her Yong'an Palace was not safe.

She began to rummage elsewhere again, but not for the brochure, but for something else.

But she is the queen mother, there are too many things in her palace, unless there is something important, she can't find it even if she loses one or the other. So no matter how to find it, she didn't have a clue, but the more she searched, the more upsetting she became.

Bao Chan was calmer than her, and after looking for a while, he said to her: "Niang Niang might as well find other objects from the Kit Kat Pavilion, especially other objects from the Skillful Craftsman Ying Peng, and see if they are still there." ”

Kit Kat Pavilion is not a place in the palace to create jewelry for the concubine, there is a treasure bureau to create jewelry, and Kit Kat Pavilion is a place to make rare things. Since the last few dynasties, the Ying family has been in charge, specializing in the development of rare and interesting objects for the royal family, and also undertaking tribute materials to create jewelry and ornaments that cannot be made by the Treasure Bureau. Beanie boxes

Therefore, the Kit Kat Pavilion is a few grades higher than the Si Zhen Bureau, and the things that come out of the Kit Kat Pavilion are not available to everyone.

When the first emperor was alive, there was even a big fight between the concubines because of a piece of jewelry from the Kit Kat Pavilion.

Empress Dowager Li was the queen in the past, and naturally she had a lot of things in the Kit Kat Pavilion, but the Kit Kat Pavilion was also divided into high and low, and not all the things that came out of the Kit Kat Pavilion were the most precious, because there were also many people in the Kit Kat Pavilion, and the Ying family craftsmen were also divided into three, six, nine and so on.

But no matter how you divide it, Ying Peng, the craftsman, will always be the one in first place. This ranking has never changed since Ying Peng was thirteen years old.

Therefore, even though Empress Dowager Li has a lot of things from Kit Kat Pavilion, she doesn't have too many things from Ying Peng's hands.

Bao Chan's reminder made Empress Dowager Li feel the clue, so she ordered Bao Chan to hurry up and find a pearl hairpin, which was made for her birthday a few years ago, and the first emperor personally ordered Ying Peng to build it for her.

She wasn't the most favored concubine before she became the queen, so she didn't get anything from Ying Peng. Even if she was a queen, she wanted Ying Peng to personally create jewelry for her several times, but Ying Peng shirked it several times and was unwilling to accept the order.

The pearl hairpin is the only piece of jewelry that is completely out of Ying Peng's hands, the craftsmanship is complicated, and there are many flower carvings that the Si Zhen Bureau can't make at all, and she cherishes it very much.

But after looking for it, Bao Toad told her, "The thing is no longer there." After speaking, he knelt down, "It was the slave maid who was derelict in his duties, which made the palace lose its precious things, please punish the mother." ”

Empress Dowager Li didn't have the heart to punish her henchmen, she just sat in her chair and kept thinking about it.

Both things are gone, but Yonggong An has never lost anything other than these two things, so you don't have to think about it to know that this matter is related to Ying Peng. But even if it is related to Ying Peng, where did Ying Peng get the ability to steal things from her house?

Except for Bao Toad in her house, no one can walk at will, can't it be Bao Toad who betrayed her?

She cast her eyes on Bao Chan, how smart Bao Chan was, and immediately understood what her master was thinking.

So he slammed his head to the ground and swore with his life that there would be no betrayal.

Empress Dowager Li is even more confused!

If it's not Bao Toad, then who else can it be? The thing that was carefully hidden suddenly disappeared, which is equivalent to stealing under her nose, I'm afraid even Bao Toad can't do it, right? Isn't that something that can only be done by gods?

As soon as she thought of the immortals, she suddenly felt a thrill, and immediately remembered what Bao Toad had just said-"What did you just say?" Miss Night Fourth entered the palace? Do you know where she went? Is it Yanhua Palace? ”

Bao Chan shook his head, "If you go back to Niangniang, Miss Yesi has entered the palace, but the direction she is going is not Yanhua Palace, but Kit Kat Pavilion." ”

Empress Dowager Li chuckled in her heart, and she had a faint bad feeling.

The Kit Kat Pavilion in the palace is a secluded place, surrounded by gardens, and basically no one disturbs it on weekdays. Especially now that the new emperor has first ascended to the throne, there is no concubine in the harem, and there is no errand to be handed over to Kit Kat Pavilion to do, at most he is thinking about giving Empress Dowager Yu some decent head and face jewelry to support the scene. As for Empress Dowager Li, it was never in their consideration.

Now that His Royal Highness the Seventh has ascended the throne, although the Empress Dowager Li is also the Empress Dowager, she is at most a queen mother, compared to the emperor's biological mother who sits in the East Sixth Palace, the Empress Dowager Li is not so important.

That's why Yingjia Craftsman will continue to stay in KitKat Pavilion!

Otherwise, if His Royal Highness the Sixth ascends the throne, the Empress Dowager Li's family is dominant, and I am afraid that the Kit Kat Pavilion will have to be given up by the Ying family, and the collective resignation will not serve again. In short, the Ying family had a very bad impression of Empress Dowager Li, which was not just influenced by Ying Peng, but because when Empress Dowager Li was the queen, she killed a female craftsman named Jinru of Kit Kat Pavilion.

Ye Wenyan didn't know these things, and when she arrived at KitKat Pavilion, she saw that the people in the pavilion were making a sundial......
