Chapter 511: The Embroidery Thread Is Broken [2]
The emperor has arrived! ”
At this moment, a eunuch's shrill voice sounded, and everyone hurriedly knelt on the ground when they heard this, kowtowed, and saluted, "Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!" ”
Xiao Beichen led the queen and several concubines to the seats that had been arranged on the high platform and sat down, then looked at everyone and raised his hand: "Flat." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The crowd stood up.
Zhang Yinyu, who was standing in the crowd, looked up at Xiao Beichen above, and finally looked around quietly, and suddenly couldn't help but be overjoyed, General Su and the general's wife were also here!
Yanyu Pavilion Cheng announced that the competition will start now, "The rules of today's embroidery finals are that every embroiderer must complete the embroidery within the time of a pillar of incense, and if it is not completed, it will be regarded as elimination!" We will select the best pair of embroideries from all the entries as the final winner. The first prize is rich, with a reward of 100 taels of silver, 10 pieces of silk, a pear blossom wood embroidery frame, and 10 bundles of various embroidery threads. and will be hired as the embroidery lady steward of Yanyu Building. ”
The embroidery girls were overjoyed when they heard this, but they didn't expect the rewards to be so rich! You can also become the embroidery lady steward of Yanyu Building! This is equivalent to having an iron rice bowl!
Almost all of the embroidery girls who came to participate in the competition came from ordinary families, and their families were not wealthy, so when they heard these rewards at this moment, they were overjoyed.
Xiao Beichen said: "I will give you an additional reward, a piece of jade." As he spoke, he took off a piece of jade pendant from his waist and said with a smile on his face.
The embroidery girls showed an excited look on their faces, Your Majesty's jade pendant!!
If you can get your majesty's reward, it will be a great honor!!
So one by one, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, they were excited.
Zhang Yuxiu's face also showed a hint of excitement, if it was said that the previous prize, she didn't have much idea, but at this moment, when she heard a piece of jade pendant rewarded by His Majesty, her eyes couldn't help but light up.
The queen smiled: "Why don't you come to the palace to add some rewards." The emperor rewarded the first place with a jade pendant, and the palace rewarded the second person with a jade bracelet. ”
As she spoke, she took off a jasper bracelet on her wrist, this jade bracelet was green all over, although it was not as good as Xiao Beichen's jade pendant, but it looked very valuable.
So the concubine Shugui on the side also spoke: "The first and second places have been rewarded, should there be this third place?" Then I'll take a golden hairpin. ”
She covered her lips and chuckled, reaching out and spontaneously removing a golden hairpin studded with pearls.
The eyes of the embroidery girls suddenly lit up like stars in the sky, if you can't get the first place, the second and third places are also good! The rewards of the queen and the concubine are also the supreme glory!
To Zhang Yinyu's surprise, she saw two familiar figures among the crowd, two of which were Su Mu and Mrs. Su!
I saw Su Mu sitting in his seat in civilian clothes, and beside him sat a dignified, graceful and luxuriously dressed woman, with a golden mask on her face, covering her forehead and half of her cheeks.
The other half of the exposed cheeks are like cream, and the lips are like grease, with a hint of mystery and charm in the dignified.
This woman is Mrs. Sue.
It is said that when Mrs. Su went out with General Su in the past, she was unfortunately disfigured, leaving burn scars on her forehead and face, and the imperial doctor could not help when she saw it, so Mrs. Su rarely went out on weekdays, and even if she went out, she would wear this mask on her face.
