If there is such a person who despises the imperial power, he will be punished with a light punishment and a serious person with a cane.

Of course, if you are already shy, even if you give a light gift, it doesn't hurt.

If the prime minister of a country and a neighboring country give a light gift, it is not in accordance with the status.

And this rule of random inspection of congratulatory gifts was in place as early as the time of the dive house.

However, only Li Zhong and the emperor knew, and others didn't know about it.

This saves you the time to go through all the congratulatory gifts.

At the same time, you can also have a general impression of the congratulatory gift.

Ying Zhan put down the wolf pen in his hand and took the booklet handed by Li Zhong.

He didn't even look at the booklet that registered all the congratulatory gifts, and placed it directly in the corner of the table on the left.

Then he opened the booklet that registered the heavy and light gifts, and looked through them nonchalantly.

There were several pages of heavy gifts, and Ying Zhan read them carefully for a while before reading them.

When it came to giving light gifts, there was only one page.

After all, some people don't dare to give light gifts even if they don't give them.

There are also some officials, that is, honest officials, who are really tight on money and not very rich, but on the occasion of the emperor's birthday, they can't help but express it.

Ying Zhan casually glanced at the light gift this year.

There is no such thing as a light salute that does not fit the status.

There are a few officials, indeed a few shy Qing officials, but it is normal.

What was given was nothing more than cloth, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and ordinary knick-knacks.

In addition to these incorruptible officials, there were also a group of concubines who gave light gifts.

The concubines knew that no matter how rich they were, they couldn't beat the emperor, so they mostly gave some light gifts.

However, since they are all hands-made bags, gloves, boots, etc., this kind of courtesy is light and affectionate, and it is normal.

Li Zhong is a servant who is quick to do things, and he also listed the light gifts in the booklet in order of severity.

Ying Zhan swept down from the top, and the name at the bottom was particularly eye-catching.

Finally, he set his sights on the name at the bottom.

Three words were written in the bottom row: Jiang Tianyan!

This name is not unfamiliar to him.

This was his queen, and soon changed the core, and it was difficult for him to remember it or not.

Looking back, the booklet reads "Jiang Meiren presented a bright yellow silk bag sewn by herself".

Among the concubines, it was not only Jiang Qianyan who gave the tips, but also Shi Guiren.

But Shi Guiren's embroidery work is well-known in the harem, and it is better than fine embroidery, ranking in the first few names of Jiang Qianyan.

And Shi Guiren's tips are registered in more detail, only to see that the booklet is written like this: Shi Guiren offered his own hand-sewn Ming Huang cloud pattern forging dragon pattern blessing word splendid river and mountain tips.

In this way, as soon as people see these words, they immediately have a general idea in their minds.

But Jiang's embroidered tips give people a vague and one-sided feeling.

However, Ying Zhan didn't have any feelings about the tips.

But as soon as I saw the three words Jiang Tianyan, I had a distinct impression of this woman.

The woman who is rigorous and calm when treating people, with an aura.

In private, it is naïve, with the innocence of a girl.

Let's say that she is kind, and sometimes she is very good at playing tricks on little women and trying her best to seduce him.

seems to be walking on thin ice in the harem, only promised, and respectful, but in fact, he doesn't think highly of him because he is the emperor.

Instead, treat him like an ordinary man.

Ying Zhan's last impression of her was still at Concubine Shugui's birthday banquet, and she was dressed like a stupid bear.

For a while, I couldn't help but be a little curious.

What kind of tricks can such a stupid bear embroider?

Ying Zhan thought that the registered eunuch was sloppy for a while, and the writing was not detailed enough.

He put the booklet on the bookcase, and clicked twice on the booklet with his fingertips, "Li Zhong, is this a mistake?" ”

Li Zhong took a closer look and saw that the emperor was referring to the birthday gift given by Jiang Meiren.

He replied almost without thinking: "Your Majesty, this minion specially saw it at that time, and asked people to go to Yuquan Villa to ask, it is absolutely right!" ”

Speaking of which, he was very impressed.

Li Zhong has served His Majesty the Emperor for many years and received countless gifts for the emperor.

I've never seen such a shoddy gift, it's just unsightly.

At that time, the first time he saw it, he thought it was a mistake, just like the emperor's reaction.

In order to avoid being dropped on the road, he also specially sent someone to ask Aunt Qin beside Jiang Meiren.

People said that this is what Jiang Meiren personally sewed for the emperor.

He really didn't understand that Jiang Meiren looked as beautiful as a flower, but the tricks she made were extremely ugly.

The key is that the bag is not embroidered with any lines, after living for so many years, it is the first time to see such an ugly bag, can you not remember it deeply?

Ying Zhan heard Li Zhong say this, and became even more interested.

He said, "Go and get the bag!" ”

Li Zhong looked surprised, a man like the emperor naturally has a lot of women who give tips.

But the emperor has never been so interested in a bag as he is at this moment.

It seems that you have to see the tips.

In Li Zhong's view, the emperor also wants to see the tips of Shi Guiren.

Shi Guiren embroidered exquisitely, and the embroidered bag was exquisite, small and beautiful.

So, Li Zhong cautiously asked, "Your Majesty, are you sure you want to see it?" ”

But before he could say his words, he was met with the death stare of the emperor.

With just one glance, Li Zhong was so frightened that he stood in place and trembled, even trembling when he spoke, "Slave, slave, let's get it!" ”

As a eunuch, he really didn't understand the minds of men.

Li Zhong originally thought that Jiang Meiren's bag had no lines, and it was ugly to death, and there was no novelty.

Judging from the emperor's reaction now, Jiang Meiren is called clever.

Because, no novelty is the best novelty!

The world's martial arts, mutual restraint, sometimes you have to be surprised to win.

No, only the first-to-last ranking attracted the emperor's attention.

Only when the emperor sees it, can he have a chance.

It's better than the concubines next to him, and the emperor didn't mention the gifts he worked so hard to give, let alone take a look.

Of course, the key is that the emperor has Jiang Meiren in his heart.

Why don't you try someone else? Designation is a different result!

Concubine Shu was reading quietly on the side, although she heard the conversation between the emperor and Li Zhong, she didn't say much.

A moment later, Li Zhong came in with a bright yellow box the size of a palm.

It was a small box made of rosewood, wrapped in a layer of bright yellow moire brocade.

Li Zhong opened the brocade box and put it on the bookcase.

Ying Zhan lowered his eyes and looked at the brocade box, only to see that there was a palm-sized brocade bag in the already small brocade box.

Just one glance, his eyebrow bones jumped abruptly.

The needles and threads of the bag were unevenly sewn and crooked, and the stitches were of different lengths, just like the feet of a centipede.

It's ugly to the extreme, but it's a defective product.

No wonder when he asked Li Zhong to take it, Li Zhong was embarrassed, and he sent such an ugly thing to him with Jiang Tianyan!

I'm embarrassed to be in such a delicate box.

Even the brocade box is better than the brocade bag she sewed, and there are embroidery patterns on the brocade box.

She Jiang poured her face well, and the brocade box she gave had no lines at all, it was just a tabula rasa.
