Chapter 258: The Joy of Being Manipulated
The female officer in charge of the Shangyi Bureau was already waiting for Lan Beichen and Xia Jinse to come over.
Seeing the two coming, the female official saluted respectfully: "I've seen the Nine Princes, Miss Xia." ”
She took the two of them in, and there were already two sets of red wedding dresses on the table, one for men and one for women. Just by looking at the material of this dress, you know that it is definitely a treasure, a faint halo flows, soft and close.
Xia Jinse's breath was sluggish, this is what she will wear in a few days?
"Can you expand it for me?" She asked the female officer expectantly.
"Of course, Miss Xia waits." The female official hurriedly responded, called two palace maids, unfolded the women's wedding dress, and put a layer of soft cloth underneath, and then spread it flat on the table, one by one.
The dazzling red color suddenly dazzled Xia Jinse's eyes.
The smooth and delicate material is more tender than milk, and it is slippery to the touch, and a phoenix spreads its wings and jumps on the back of the clothes. Each tail feather is made of colorful silk threads, lifelike, and the colorful gems are like stars shining with magnificent brilliance, dazzling and breathtaking.
I have never seen such a delicate and gorgeous wedding dress, although Xia Jinse has always felt that the white wedding dress is the most suitable for the wedding, but now that she has seen this luxurious and beautiful wedding dress, she finally understands that if she can wear such a wedding dress in this life to get married, she will not regret it in her life.
Looking at the more than ten pieces of clothes on the table, from the most close-fitting clothes to the underwear, even a tie is embroidered with exquisite patterns, layers of rigorous, all exquisite, even the red embroidered shoes are full of gems, Xia Jinse is not only surprised, is emotional.
The female officer carefully explained: "Miss Xia, this set of women's wedding dresses is made according to the conditions of the princess, and the phoenix has a total of one hundred and eight silk threads and more than nine hundred colors. The gems are the most skillful embroiderers embroidered one by one, a total of 9,999, a lot! There are nine kinds of gemstones, namely ruby, sapphire, opal, tourmaline, pearl, Tianhuang, diamond, emerald, ......"
Xia Jinse was amazed when she heard it, she didn't expect it to be so troublesome to make a set of wedding dresses, no wonder so many embroiderers have to do it for several months. The top-notch things do require manpower, and they are not mass-produced by machine assembly lines, which is precious.
"It's so beautiful!" She's already looking forward to it, how good it will look if she wears this wedding dress!
"Miss Xia, do you want to give it a try? If you are not satisfied, you can also modify it. The female officer flattered the inquiry, for fear that something would go wrong.
Try not to use it, Xia Jinse was very satisfied, and said with a smile: "It fits very well at a glance, and I also like the style embroidery, so I don't need to modify it." She just thinks it's troublesome to change clothes, and it takes at least half an hour to put on such a cumbersome wedding dress, plus taking it off, it takes a lot of time.
It's better to save the wedding dress until the day of marriage, otherwise it will be meaningless.
Xia Jinse was curious about Lan Beichen's men's model, and also spread it out and took a look, which also amazed her.
A four-clawed dragon on the wedding dress, embroidered as if it was about to break through the air, full of momentum, if it was worn on Lan Beichen's body, he didn't need to look at it to know that it was definitely beneficial
Clear. It is said that people need clothes, but Lan Beichen is originally a good hanger, and with his tough and cold appearance, there is absolutely no one to match.
"Since the Ninth Prince and Miss Xia are satisfied, the slave and maid will send the wedding dress to the Ministry of Rites, and someone will naturally send it over on the wedding day." The female officer said respectfully, as if she was relieved.
Seeing that Lan Beichen was also very satisfied, Xia Jinse felt that they should be rewarded, although the embroidery girls of the Shangyi Bureau should do this, but since they did their best, they should be praised for their hard work.
"This is a reward for the embroidery girls who make these two sets of wedding dresses, and I will bother my aunt to send them to them later." Xia Jinse took out a silver ticket of one hundred taels from the cuff and handed it to the female official.
She barely had any money on her, and the hundred taels were still put in the medical cabin space just in case.
When the female official saw it, she was surprised and frightened: "Miss Xia, the slaves and maids should do things, and they don't dare to accept ......."
Lan Beichen said: "If you want to accept it, you will accept it." ”
"Yes, thank you Nine Princes, thank you Miss Xia." The female officer took it. Since the Nine Princes had spoken, she didn't dare to disobey, and her face was a little more joyful.
"Okay, then let's not bother, you can continue to be busy."
The female official sent Xia Jinse and Lan Beichen out: "The Ninth Prince and Miss Xia go slowly, and the slave and maid send them off." ”
When the two of them were gone, she straightened up, her face flushed with light.
It's a bad deal, and now I'm waiting for the wedding of the ninth prince, and these two sets of wedding clothes can be handed over, but it's just ...... She suddenly thought of something, and her expression changed.
At this moment, a gloomy voice came from beside him: "What else are you looking at, do you want to rush up and stammer?" ”
The female officer hurriedly turned her head, but saw an old eunuch with a gloomy face and two little eunuchs, who appeared next to her at some point. As soon as she saw him, she hurriedly saluted: "I've seen Gonggong Liu." ”
"Everything is done, no doubts?" The old eunuch's tone was gloomy, as if there was a knife hidden in his throat.
"It's all done, the Nine Princes and Miss Xia have no suspicions, and the slave and maid will let people send the wedding dress to the Ministry of Rites." The female officer whispered, and her heart beat again.
"Just do it, the rest of the people, deal with it immediately, don't let people find anything." He said again.
"This ......" The female officer glanced at the embroidery girls in the room, a little unbearable.
The old eunuch said in a weird way: "If you don't start earlier, do you want to be found out after the incident?" Don't think that the queen mother has gone, and the miscellaneous family can't help you, but you accepted the queen's money and promised to do it well......"
The female official's heart tightened, and she interrupted him: "Father-in-law Liu, the slave and maid will do it immediately!" ”
"That's right!" The old eunuch smiled grimly, stared at the female official and went in and called the five embroidery girls out, and asked them to go to the silk thread warehouse, and then with a wink, the two little eunuchs behind him turned around and went.
The five inconsequential embroidery girls disappeared, and they couldn't make any waves in the deep palace, only making the treacherous form more subtle and complicated......
Xia Jinse didn't know it, and he didn't expect that his wedding dress had been tampered with.
After walking out of the palace along the palace wall, Xia Jinse began to chill after walking for a while.
Although the snow in the sky has stopped, the ground has not been swept away. Along the way, I saw the little eunuch cleaning with a broom, and the snow-white snow was stepped on by people, and it looked dirty.
"Cold?" Lan Beichen looked at her and held Xia Jinse's other hand, which was really cold, "Why don't you bring a hand warmer?" You are thin, not only do you have to wear more clothes when you go out, but you also need to use a heater, otherwise you will easily catch a cold. ”
Xia Jinse did not have the habit of using a hand warmer, and in the past, her city was mostly hot, and even in winter, it was two months at most, and the temperature below zero was low. Since I came to Daqing, it is the first time I have encountered a harsh winter.
"It's okay, it won't be cold in the car later, and it's warmer when I go home." Xia Jinse's pretty face was crimson, but she was in a happy mood.
People are in good spirits when they are happy, and everything she sees now is good.
Lan Beichen shook his head with a smile, took her into his arms, and almost left without holding her.
Not far from the Shangyi Bureau, I saw a few people in front of me coming from another road, and when the other party saw them, they stopped moving.
Xia Jinse has a headache, why did she bump into Princess Yuyan like this?
On a cold day, didn't she just cut her wrists and commit suicide, why didn't she stay in the palace to recuperate from her injuries, but ran around?
Lan Beichen glanced at it lightly, and continued to walk forward with Xia Jinse in his arms: "What's so good, I'm about to get out of the palace and get in the car, look at your cold hands." ”
The two of them had just taken two steps, and Princess Yuyan shouted behind them: "Uncle Nine! ”
Lan Beichen didn't stop, Xia Jinse's heart sank slightly, but he saw that his face was not shocked, as if he hadn't heard it.
"Uncle Nine! Uncle Nine! Uncle Nine!! ”
The shouts behind him grew louder and more urgent, hoarse, as if they would not give up until they reached their goal.
Lan Beichen finally stood still, and Princess Yuyan lifted her skirt, ignoring the snow on her shoes, and rushed in front of them.
"Uncle Nine, why don't you ignore me?"
Princess Yuyan only stared at Lan Beichen, ignoring Xia Jinse who was standing next to her, as if only Lan Beichen could enter her eyes between heaven and earth, and the thoughts in her eyes were surging like a storm: "Father forced Yuyan to marry Aesop and relatives, did Uncle Nine really ignore it?" Yuyan is unwilling, won't Uncle Nine help Yuyan? ”
Lan Beichen said lightly: "The emperor's will is not something I can interfere with. ”
"No, it's not like that, you lied to me!" Princess Yuyan shouted: "My father trusts Uncle Nine the most, as long as Uncle Nine says a word, my father will do everything." Uncle Nine, please, help Yuyan, Yuyan doesn't want to be married, don't marry Prince Aesop......"
The eyes that had long been red and swollen shed a line of tears, looking pitiful.
Xia Jinse didn't know what to say, so he could only stand aside and watch. Although she doesn't like Princess Yuyan, and even hates her because of the previous festivals, she is actually very pitiful when she thinks that as a princess, she can't even control her own destiny.
The two palace maids stood behind them nervously, looking like they wanted to persuade but didn't dare.
Princess Yuyan begged bitterly: "Uncle Jiu, you were very good when Yuyan was a child
I love Yuyan, why don't you help Yuyan now? Yuyan begged for everything, the sixth brother, the second brother, the mother concubine, and even the father...... But they don't care about Yuyan, why ......"
She just wants to love someone well and stay with him for the rest of her life, why can't such a small wish come true?
She's a princess!
The dignified princess of Daqing, everyone thinks that she wants the wind and the rain, and they also think that she is domineering and arrogant...... But who knows what she really wants? No, no one cares, no one cares!
She has loved Lan Beichen since a long time ago!
She didn't know how this feeling came about, and she was happy to see him. Countless times I have thought that he also likes her, and if he accepts this feeling, what a happy woman should she be?
With a turn of her eyes, Princess Yuyan's gaze fell on Xia Jinse.
The man she loves the most, in front of her, hugs another woman!
"Uncle Jiu, don't you really want Yuyan?" The hatred in her heart suddenly surged up, and Princess Yuyan tried her best to endure it, gritting her teeth and looking at Lan Beichen.
Xia Jinse doesn't like this feeling very much, obviously she is the main one, but the other party regards her as a third party, who does she owe?
Lan Beichen's hand holding her waist tightened, and her tone was stained with a hint of indifference: "Even if you marry Aesop, you are still the princess of Daqing, and this will not change." ”
"No, I don't care about any princess, I only care about Uncle Nine!"
Princess Yuyan screamed, her face distorted, "Uncle Nine, I don't want to marry Aesop, I want to stay with Uncle Nine!" If it weren't for her, Uncle Nine would still be mine now! ”
She stared at Xia Jinse, the danger in her eyes seemed to overflow, Lan Beichen quickly protected her behind her, her face was cold, Princess Yuyan's eyes shrank, and she screamed sadly: "You are protecting her like this, afraid that I will hurt her?" I love you so much, you don't care about it at all? ”
In an instant, she suddenly pulled out the dagger hidden in her belt and stabbed it towards Xia Jinse.
