Chapter 707: The Emperor's Sweetheart
Seeing her mother's cautious appearance, Jiang Yingli suddenly realized the abnormality of the emperor's talent - is it because of this dress?
She cautiously asked tentatively, "Mother, is there anything wrong with this dress?" ”
Mrs. Hou glared at her angrily: "Who asked you to wear this dress, can you wear this dress casually?" ”
Mrs. Hou's words aroused Jiang Yinglian's reverie, Jiang Yingli couldn't care about so much for a while, and hurriedly asked: "Mother, don't care who gave me this dress first, tell me first, what the hell is going on, why did the emperor look angry just now." ”
Mrs. Hou sighed helplessly, and then her eyes flickered, as if she was recalling something, and then she said helplessly to Jiang Yingliang: "If you want to talk about this matter, you have to start from before, it's a long story......
Jiang Yingli frowned, and then said, "Then mother, you will make a long story short." ”
"Actually, this dress belongs to the emperor's sweetheart."
Hearing this, Jiang Yingli was slightly surprised: "Mother, what do you mean by this?" This dress is actually ......," said this, her expression changed slightly.
The carriage was too dim, and Mrs. Hou didn't notice that her face was weird, but she just recalled to herself: "The emperor had a sweetheart at the beginning, and people in the capital basically knew it, of course, it was limited to some old people, and people of your age basically didn't know, because the emperor gave a gag order, anyway, few people knew, and few people dared to mention his sweetheart in front of the emperor." ”
Jiang Yingli asked a little dumbfounded: "Then where did her sweetheart go?" In fact, Jiang Yingli already had the answer in her heart, but she didn't hear her mother say it, she still felt a little uneasy.
Sure enough, I saw Mrs. Hou say in a regretful tone: "I have passed away, so the emperor suddenly has signs of anger, in fact, my mother was almost scared to death when she saw you coming out in this dress just now." ”
Speaking of this, Mrs. Hou quickly pulled out of her memories, and then asked her anxiously: "Is this dress worn by the noble concubine, this person is really vicious, this is deliberately to let you face the emperor's anger." ”
When Mrs. Hou said this, she vigorously accused the noble concubine, and she didn't realize the stiffness on Jiang Yingliang's face at this time.
Jiang Yingli subconsciously glanced at the clothes in the corner, but in his mind, he couldn't help but recall the scene where he followed the noble concubine down to change clothes-
The clothes were indeed taken down by the noble concubine to change, but the person who proposed that she wear this dress was not the noble concubine, but the personal palace maid of the noble concubine.
And before she entered the palace, Yun Chuan had specially mentioned to her that the palace maid named Bai Yue was Yun Chuan's person, that is, her own person.
But this own person proposed to let her wear clothes that might cause a catastrophe in this matter, Jiang Yingli didn't know what to do for a while, could it be that Bai Yue rebelled? Why else would you let her wear this garment?
Jiang Yingli was in a complicated mood, and went back to the Hou Mansion in silence all the way, Mrs. Hou thought she was frightened, so she thoughtfully did not mention the matter of the dress again.
After returning to the Hou Mansion, he was going to put away the clothes and send them back to the palace, but Jiang Yingli asked for the clothes.
Mrs. Hou was a little strange: "This dress is not a good thing, it is a hot potato, let my mother dispose of it for you." ”
Jiang Yingli shook his head, then raised his eyebrows and said: "Mother, you also said that this dress is a hot potato, which means that it is not lost or left, since this is the case, it is better to let it flow and let it stay in my house, in case someone in the palace wants it again, I also have to hand over one to others." ”
Hearing Jiang Yingliang's words, Mrs. Hou also felt that there was some reason, so she didn't stop it anymore, handed over the clothes to Jiang Yingliang, and let her take them back.
Jiang Yingli took the clothes away in a daze, and after returning to the courtyard, she thought about it and didn't figure out why this happened, and finally she pinched the clothes in her hand.
Suddenly, he pinched an unusual hard object in his hand.
Jiang Yingliang's face changed slightly, frowning, the texture of this dress is excellent, plus it is the clothes of the emperor's sweetheart, it is naturally impossible to cut corners, but what is this abrupt hard object?
Jiang Yingli thought about it for a while, and hurriedly continued to look for the location of the hard object, and finally found that it was at the skirt.
After Jiang Yingli hesitated for a while, she took out a knife and picked up the stitches, and then took out the contents and found that it was actually a wax pill, she shook the wax pill and leaned over to listen to the movement.
- There's something in there!
Jiang Yingli looked at the white ball in her hand in surprise, and then sewed the piece of fabric again with a neat move, she was mainly worried that the emperor or someone would suddenly ask her for this dress.
After sewing it, he packed the garment and put it in the closet, then lit the candlestick, knocked the wax pill open, and pulled out the letter inside.
But after reading the contents of the letter and finding that it was going to be handed over to Yun Chuan, Jiang Yingli sighed, and for a while he couldn't figure out whether there was a traitor or not, so he could only think about handing this thing over to Yun Chuan.
Although Jiang Yingli was strange, he still asked Yun Zhu to pay attention to the movements in the Hou Ye's Mansion, and as long as Yun Chuan came over, he would notify her immediately.
Sure enough, Yun Chuan came that day, Jiang Yingli didn't want to meet him, so he directly handed over the letter to Yun Zhu and asked her to hand it over to Yun Chuan.
Although Yunzhu wondered why Miss didn't go to see His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince in person, but now that Miss and His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince kept their distance, she quite agreed, after all, they still had a master, so after listening to Jiang Yingliang's meaning, she handed the letter to Yun Chuan's hand.
After she came back, Jiang Yingli didn't ask Yun Chuan's reaction, but just slept on her own.
In the next period of time, Jiang Yingli decided to keep a low profile, he wouldn't go out if he didn't have anything, he would only go to the embroidery workshop when he went out, or he would go to Fang Youning to catch up.
But even so, I still can't resist the slander of people with hearts, the palace banquet held by the noble concubine, for some reason, various versions will be circulated, and the attic of the teahouse is basically talking about Jiang Yingliang's rumors-
Generally speaking, she looked down on people with dog eyes, and actually bullied others when the noble concubine was down, but the gorgeous concubine generously did not care about her, all in all, she directly scandalized Jiang Yingli into an arrogant and narrow-minded woman.
Although Jiang Yingli was angry when he heard these rumors, he had no way to stop it, so he had to pretend not to hear it as much as possible, and continued to go back and forth between the Hou Ye's mansion and the embroidery workshop.
She thought that with this kind of work, it would be better to sell a few more clothes.
Although Jiang Yingli was not surprised by some of Qu Huashang's actions, what surprised her was that the recent business of the embroidery workshop was much better than usual, and many people asked Jiang Yingli to help customize the clothes.
