Chapter 690: Brocade Clothes
As Cui Yan said, Mu Ling's purse is just a whim.
In her previous life, she did less needlework, let alone embroidery. It was such a simple thing as cross-stitch that arose at that time, and Mu Ling didn't have the energy to pay attention to it.
is to embroider the purse with a needle, and she probably really got into the water that day!
Partial life just took it, but it happened that Liang Chu saw it. Immediately, Liang Chu remembered that the two had been together for so many years, and there was nothing on him that she had made herself, so he strongly asked for a purse.
Originally, Mu Ling thought that it was just a money bag, and it would be good to sew two stitches at will. But I don't want this high-quality silk, it's really not good to get a needle.
Finally, it took a few days to sew the purse into a shape, and I thought about simply embroidering a flower, and this 'simple' was dragged on until this time.
Seeing Cui Yan mention it now, Mu Ling was annoyed again: "He doesn't go out, where can he use his purse!" โ
This purse is used for money, Liang Chu doesn't need to carry a bag of money around in this palace, who still carries money at home all the time?
Cui Yan knew that his master was annoyed, so he only covered his mouth and smiled, and changed the topic: "It's already the twentieth day of the lunar month, and it will be Xiao Nian in four days, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs has sent this year's new cloth." The maid looks good, but the mother wants to pick out some clothes for the little prince and the little princess to make spring? โ
The clothes of the masters are naturally not ready for a while, and now they have measured the size and picked the cloth, and when the clothes are ready, it will almost be spring, and they can be worn.
Mu Ling stood up and walked to the inner room: "Today, the two of them are well-behaved, and they asked the servant Qin to take care of it, and you go to the Internal Affairs Mansion with the palace." โ
It's been boring in the palace for so long, so it's good to go out for a walk.
In addition, the snow plum on the side of the plum garden should also be blooming at this time, and it is a pity that I happen to be free today, so I might as well go over to see how the flowers are blooming, and don't wait to miss the flowering period.
The Internal Affairs Mansion was still some distance away from the Heart Cultivation Palace, so Mu Ling took steps to rush over.
With such a character coming, the people of the Internal Affairs Office naturally explained that they had taken out all the good things that had come from the recent tribute, and they couldn't wait for Mu Ling to pick them all away to be happy.
"Didn't you say the new cloth?" Mu Ling glanced at those antique ornaments, but they didn't mean much.
The steward of the Internal Affairs Office hurriedly led the person to the warehouse, and personally took it to a shelf, and took out the cloth contained in a nanmu box on it: "This is the new tribute from Jiangnan this year, I heard that it is made of snow silkworm spinning silk, and this cloth is extraordinarily softer, but this color is also incomparable to others." It's just that this cloth is only this one in total, and the queen can make a coat. โ
Because it's precious, it's not much.
Mu Ling nodded, stretched out his hand and touched it, it was indeed very comfortable: "Keep it for the little prince and the little princess to make two close-fitting clothes." โ
The skin of a child is tender, and the rough fabric wears it on the body, and now the cloth is just in time.
The housekeeper was stunned for a moment, then nodded and smiled: "Niangniang really hurts the little prince and the little princess, look here, these two pieces of cloth are also of the highest quality-"
As he spoke, he had already turned to the other side, and there was a special brocade box, which was a high-quality fabric.
Mu Ling saw that the color was more graceful and calm, so he explained to the Queen Mother to keep. In addition, I picked some more for Liang Chu, and I also picked some myself, and then I saw that in this warehouse, there were many fabrics on the shelves on the four sides, many of which were piled up without boxes.
"How long have these been piling up?" Mu Ling frowned and pointed to the cloth.
It looks very well preserved, but it always looks old compared to the others.
The head of the Internal Affairs Office didn't know what the queen meant, so he only replied thoughtfully: "These are all tributes from previous years, and the emperor will receive some of the best cloth." In recent years, there have been fewer masters in the harem, and no one has come to pick up these cloths, which have been piled up in the past few years. If it continues to pile up, I am afraid that it will only be wasted. โ
Speaking of which, the head of the Internal Affairs Office is still a little painful, no matter how good or bad the cloth that comes up from this tribute, it is always the best material, and it is very wasteful to waste it in vain.
It's just that there are rules for these things, and what the master wears is what the master wears, and if he is a slave who takes it to make clothes, it will be out of line. Even though they watched it all day long, the people from the Internal Affairs Office didn't have the courage to take it.
Mu Ling's eyes flashed, and he thought of something: "First count all the squeezed ones, vacate a warehouse and put it first, and send a list to the Heart Cultivation Hall after the inventory." โ
"Yes." The head of the Internal Affairs Office didn't know what the queen meant, so he only responded respectfully.
Now there is only one queen in the harem, so naturally she has to listen to the queen in everything.
Coming out of the Internal Affairs Office, Mu Ling's mood was not much better, but he looked preoccupied.
Cui Yan couldn't help but worry when she looked at this: "Niang Niang also chose the material for the Queen Mother today, if she sent someone to send the material to Cixi Palace, she would always be good at asking for a favor." I think that although the Queen Mother is a little difficult to get along with, she will never be so distracted by the mother. โ
"The Internal Affairs Office will go to Cixi Palace, and there is no need to make a trip to the palace."
She will be in a bad mood when she goes to the Queen Mother.
Although the Queen Mother has been quiet these days, she has not necessarily died down. Before the Queen Mother made a statement, Mu Ling still had to be vigilant.
Naturally, these inside stories can't be said to Cui Yan, so Mu Ling only told Cui Yan not to worry about it.
Coming out of the Internal Affairs Office, Bu Bao walked not far ahead, and saw another team of Bu Cai coming towards him, looking at the formation, Mu Ling couldn't help laughing, and asked someone to stop on the side.
"Why is the emperor here?"
"I heard that you came to the Internal Affairs Office, so I came to take a look." Liang Chu walked down, "I have already kept the good materials, and the things here in the Internal Affairs Office are very rough, but they can't be used." The embroidery workshop is already making our spring clothes, so you don't have to worry about it. โ
"Poofโ"
Mu Ling couldn't help laughing, he really felt that Liang Chucai was like a worried woman now. Obviously, this thing of making clothes should be arranged by a woman like her, but she didn't think that he could be one step faster than her.
"The emperor is so capable, but it seems that the concubines are becoming more and more incompetent."
Thinking like this, Mu Ling couldn't help but joke.
didn't want Liang Chu to pick her up, and whispered in her ear: "How can I do it, you should have known it a long time ago." โ
