Chapter 056: East Palace
"I heard that the dresses on the canonization ceremony of the princess and the concubine were outsourced to the palace through the Shangyi Bureau and made by a silk village outside the palace. That silk village, I asked Jinyiwei to go down and inquire, it is the private property of your mother Zhao, and it is placed on Siping Street. ”
"Yesterday, Concubine Taisun came to visit, saying that the sewing progress of the dress is a step behind compared to the Shangyi Bureau in the palace, what is going on? Are you going to call someone to check it out?"
The crown princess Zhang was wearing a light blue palace dress inlaid with pearl rice grains, standing under the rose camellia in the courtyard, while telling the palace people to cut off the dead branches and yellow leaves on the tree, and at the same time turned her head and looked at Song Yun behind her with her spare eyes.
Song Yun's face was still as calm as water, and she didn't react to any discomfort because of the princess's careful scrutiny.
"Back to the crown princess, I have already instructed someone to investigate this matter, and the female officials reported that the gold brocade of the silk village on Siping Street was not enough, and the sewing progress lagged behind the palace Shangyi Bureau."
"However, the silk village has recently obtained a batch of woven gold brocade, and the sewing progress has also been accelerated a lot, presumably before the canonization ceremony of the princess and the concubine, this dress must be in a hurry."
"But this sewing dress, after all, is a very meticulous work, and it can't be sloppy, even if it is delayed, it doesn't matter." Song Yun finished speaking, and added this sentence calmly.
After all, the Song family's silk village can take over the work in the palace, and it is inseparable from her.
If it was because of the matter of the dress, which finally led to the delay of the canonization ceremony of the concubine and the concubine, she would have something to do with it.
"It's good that you know something! The work that the palace clothing bureau can't do, and some of it is divided into the embroidery workshop outside the palace, which can also save a lot of expenses. ”
"Since that silk house is your mother's private property, I can also trust it."
After Zhang's words, the palace people who were waiting around hurriedly moved the stool and chair over, and waited for Zhang to sit down on the stool and chair.
Song Yun was about to speak, wanting to delay the progress of the dress sewing for the Song family's silk village, and explain it to Zhang's again, and Zhang's opened his mouth.
"I heard from the spies outside the palace that Taishi Chen planned to beg your father, go your way, and stuff the girl of their family into the draft list of the little prince of the Han Palace. Have you heard about that?"
Zhang's tone was indifferent, without any emotion, but Song Yun heard something wrong from this cold tone.
Kneeling on the ground, Song Jin immediately explained.
"Niangniang, the slave didn't know about these things in advance, it was the mother who called someone to hand over the news, and the slave and maid only knew."
"Taishi Chen did discuss with the slave's father, and wanted to follow the path of the slave and maid, and stuffed their girl in the list of show girls. But the slave felt that this matter was inappropriate, so she did not dare to agree. ”
"This palace knows that you didn't agree, if you agreed, this palace won't send someone to invite you over today!"
"You and I have been managing the ladies in the palace for all these years, there is no need to kneel and kneel, get up quickly! This palace is just curious, just asking. ”
"Since the Chen family has the heart to ask you to do something, you will obey their wishes! Remember, since their family has gone your way and stuffed the girl into the list of show girls, you must be selected! ”
The emotions in Zhang's words were full of twists and turns, almost making Song Yun not understand.
After the palace people lifted Song Yun who was kneeling on the ground, although they moved the stool and chair over, Song Yun didn't dare to sit on it, and still stood beside Zhang's side and listened to her instructions.
"The girl of the Chen family, the slave maid has also seen it, her appearance and temperament are not good, but I am afraid that the internal supervisors of the draft will see it, and she will be eliminated before the first round."
Song Yun said a few words tentatively, in order to find out what the real crown princess was thinking in her heart.
Stuffing the girl of the Chen family into the list of show girls and being selected, could it be that in the heart of the crown princess, what plan does she already have?
Speculation is speculation, before the crown princess did not give a clear answer, what Song Yun just thought of was always speculation.
"If you want her to be selected and marry into the Han Palace, it shouldn't be difficult for you to come, right?"
"The Han Wang couple is scheming, calculating the prince everywhere behind their backs, and instigating the abolition of the prince several times by the old man's side, if the prince ascends the throne, they are afraid that they and the couple will not be able to sit still. Placing such a person next to the Han Wang couple will also be of great help to the disposal of the Han Wangfu in the future. ”
Zhang said, raised his head from time to time to look at Song Yun standing beside him, and saw that Song Yun's face was still faint, and he knew that what he had just said was already in her guess.
Song Yun didn't expect that the crown princess wanted the Chen family girl to be selected and marry into the Han Palace, and there was this calculation.
It's just that the girl of the Chen family is willing to be at the mercy of the crown princess?
Song Yun nodded, and immediately retreated and went to the Shangyi Bureau.
Soon after Song Yun left, someone from the palace said that the British Duchess and the Duchess Xu Guo had come to the palace to greet the crown princess.
After receiving the news from Song Yun from the palace, the Song family and his wife knew what the crown princess meant.
After retiring the maids and servants who were waiting in the house, and having the candles extinguished, the two lay down on the couch and whispered.
"Madam, what do you mean by Yun'er? actually agreed to the Chen family, followed her path, and stuffed their girls into the draft list. ”
"Originally, the palace maid beside Yun'er handed out a message, saying that Yun'er didn't agree with this matter, how to blink an eye, it changed."
"Master, you didn't listen to the meaning of Yun'er's words, Yun'er said, all this is what the princess meant, she just did what the princess wanted. What does the crown princess think in her heart, how do we people know?"
"Let's go to bed early! It's not your turn to worry about these things. ”
In Cuiweiju here, Song Jin asked Bai He to refill the lamp oil, she shrank in a corner under the window, and looked carefully at the "Heavenly Creation" in her hand.
This was in the evening, she took Bai He, went to the study in the city, searched carefully, and found it.
There is one in it, which records in detail what Song Jin is and what is the loom that weaves Song Jin?
In modern society, the Song brocade weaving skills that have been lost for hundreds of years have been glimpsed in this book "Heavenly Creations".
Before she crossed over, she was in the Jinling Yunjin Research Institute, specializing in the restoration of Yunjin, and rarely had the opportunity to contact the restoration of Song Jin.
The difficulty of Song Jin's restoration is far greater than that of Yun Jin, only in some ancient books and miscellaneous books, there is a sentence and a half that mentions Song Jin's style, pattern, weaving skills and looms.
However, she has a soft spot for the weaving and restoration of Song brocade, and the patterns and patterns of Song brocade are the most numerous and colorful among all brocade cloths.
It's just that I don't know how many people in the Ming Dynasty still understand this long-lost textile skill.
