That's too much of a promise to come true. But Liu Wan was still coaxed by this short-term happiness and smiled happily, no matter whether his heart could make room for himself or not, whether he was his palace concubine or not, everything seemed to be unimportant. Could it be that she had forgotten all these years so quickly? Of course not!

She heard Cheng Hai report to Ji Hongduo outside the door with some embarrassment: "Holy Lord, Mrs. Xuan has arrived." ”

The sound was so soft that it seemed to disturb the people in the temple. Liu Wan stood up with interest, like a child who had done something wrong, pointed to the outside of the hall, but didn't know what to say, and finally could only bow down and go out through the side door.

"Why is it that the Holy One is alone in the temple and doesn't put on the lamp?"

It turned out that it was already dark, and it turned out that they had been sitting like this for a long time, not saying much, but they really felt each other's existence. Ji Hongduo's chest was still hot, which was where Liu Wan had touched just now. His legs were a little numb, so much so that he could only sit at a distance, waiting for He Qingmei to come over.

Turning around and getting into Ji Hongduo's arms, He Qingmei hooked his neck, put it in his ear and said, "Otherwise, I won't be on the lights tonight?" Ji Hongduo moved his numb legs, was silent for a moment, and shouted outside the hall gate: "On the lamp, I can't see Mrs. Xuan's appearance clearly!" ”

"Nasty!"

Mrs. Xuan stood up and said angrily.

It turned out that he called Mrs. Xuan to sleep tonight, but for what reason? The conversation with Liu Wan had completely disrupted Ji Hongduo's thoughts, and he remembered that he was very happy when he went to the morning court. It was because He Hanyun sent an excerpt from 800 miles in southern Jiangsu, saying that the renovation of the salt fields was progressing smoothly and that 300,000 mu had been completed. In addition, agreements were reached with both the states of Southern Chu and Qi to supply them with salt every year.

Yes, that's the way it is. Recalling all this, Ji Hongduo slowly moved his legs, walked to Mrs. Xuan's side, stared at Mrs. Xuan's side face for a long time, and said intoxicated: "Beauty, you really have to watch under the lamp!" ”

After walking out for a long time, Liu Wan remembered that her painting manuscript was still in Zichen Palace. If you turn it back and take it now, I'm afraid it will sweep away some people's Yaxing. But if you don't take it, Mrs. Jing will enter the palace early tomorrow morning to see the embroidery patterns and paintings, and she will only be empty-handed. A great opportunity is in front of her, but Liu Wan is in a dilemma.

"You're a, don't want to have the dream of flying on the branches and becoming a phoenix!"

"Your Liu family's good days have come to an end, this palace advises you to be sober!"

These words, submerged in the dust, I don't know which gust of wind they blew away, kept echoing in Liu Wan's mind. That's it, next time you have a chance, don't go back to Zichen Palace.

The oil lamp had been lit in the room, and Wanxin's face was not very good, and it seemed that he had been thinking about it all day, but he had no clue. A brilliant idea ignited Liu Wan's hope at this moment, and she could go empty-handed tomorrow. But it is not necessarily that there is no opportunity to participate in the process of making the wedding dress, and the person who can help her participate in it is Wanxin.

"Ah, you're back!"

Fu Wanxin seemed to see a life-saving straw, and her eyes of extreme longing fell on Liu Wan for a long time. Taking retreat as advance, Liu Wan still ignored her, took the basin and went out to get hot water and came back to deal with the wound on her foot.

"This is the best Jinchuang medicine, I'll go to Wang Siyi to ask for it." Wanxin said and put the medicine bottle on Liu Wan's bedside, "You try it, I also hope you get better soon." ”

Untying the gauze on her feet is not an easy process, a lot of skin and flesh have stuck to the gauze, and Liu Wan can only tear it carefully. Fortunately, the blisters disappeared and the wounds were small. Two bottles of medicine were placed in front of Liu Wan's eyes, one bottle was asked for by herself when she went to the hospital yesterday, and the other bottle was given by Wanxin just now.

The turning point was here, and she took the two bottles of medicine in her hand and compared them. Wanxin was also extremely nervous and secretly observed her movements, and finally she opened the bottle of medicine that Wanxin brought and asked, "Wang Siyi won't give you poison, right?" ”

"I said that my hand was injured, and she was afraid that I would not be able to continue working, so she gave me the medicine, and she didn't know that you were going to use it." As soon as Wanxin said this, Liu Wan found that she also had gauze wrapped around her hands.

made a bitter trick to deceive Wang Siyi, and also untied Liu Wan's knot in her heart.

"You deliberately scratched your own hand?"

"It's okay, it's a pair of clumsy hands anyway, and it's okay to get a little injury."

There is still guilt in her eyes, and of course there is also an expectation for Liu Wan, not expecting Liu Wan to forgive her, but expecting Liu Wan to help her save the day.

"Can you still draw with your hands?"

Wanxin looked at the injured left hand and said, "It's the left hand, it's okay." ”

Considering that every stroke on that piece of rice paper must come from the hand of Wanxin, Liu Wan told Wanxin after dealing with her feet: "I'll tell you to listen, and then draw it according to your understanding, I can't paint it for you, otherwise Wang Siyi will find that you are not only an average embroiderer, but also a painter." ”

Now how can I care if Liu Wan looks down on herself, she nodded like pounding garlic, and returned to the table, waiting for Liu Wan to say the design of the wedding dress.

The hairpin is green, and the green clothes are leather. What you want is a color collision, crimson or green are common colors for wedding dresses. What was in Zichen Palace was a crimson wedding dress, and this green wedding dress had long existed in Liu Wan's mind. She also hesitated again and again before she put down her pen to draw the crimson body.

A large number of gold threads are used on the long skirt with carving and embroidery skills to highlight the layering of the wedding dress. The outer gauze shirt adopts the method of Najin embroidery, which makes the wedding dress more graceful and luxurious. The magpie golden bamboo, meaning auspicious and rich, must be able to enter the eyes of Mrs. Jing.

Wanxin listened carefully to the words that came out of Liu Wan's mouth, for fear of missing any bit of information. After Liu Wan went to bed, she carefully drew the appearance of the wedding dress in her mind on the rice paper.

Every ornament, every embroidery, Liu Wan told Wanxin one by one, although she didn't understand many embroidery methods. However, as long as Liu Wan is there, she will not worry.

In the dark of night, Wang Siyi heard someone knock on the door, "Auntie, have you slept?" "It turned out that Ziying was here. Although Wang Siyi is not optimistic about this niece's embroidery, it is difficult to blame him because of his blood relatives. I didn't ask her to come to me tonight to mention it.

"Come in, the door is unlocked."

With Wang Siyi's permission, Ziying tiptoed into the house.

"When you came, no one saw you, did you?"

"No, I waited until everyone was asleep."

After hearing this, Wang Siyi pushed a small wooden box on the table to Ziying, and said, "Sit down and talk, this is the mother's reward for you." ”

Ziying and Wang Siyi sat on the ground, couldn't wait to open the wooden box, took out a pair of glass earrings inside, and looked carefully at the oil lamp on the table, with admiration in their mouths from time to time.

"You, you're really hopeless! A pair of glass ears will make you make such a fuss. ”

"Aunt has seen a lot of good things in the palace, but Ziying is the first time I've seen it."

Wang Siyi looked at her unenterprising appearance, and really thought that she was just here to rob those ladies when she entered the palace. Wang Siyi is forty years old this year, and if he wants to move up to an official position, he is afraid that it will be difficult.

"In five years, I will be able to go back to my hometown to recuperate, do you know why I want to take advantage of the opportunity of the reconstruction of the embroidery house to let you enter the palace this year?" Wang Siyi first sighed, and then asked.

Where did Ziying think about why, it was just that someone in the family was an official in the palace, so she came in. Now that she has been rewarded again, it is too late for her to rejoice. pretended to have thought about this problem, and then told Wang Siyi: "Auntie is far-sighted, Ziying is not in time, and I hope that my aunt will make it clear." ”

Alas, it's a hopeless one. Still looking at the ear ringing in her hand, Wang Siyi couldn't bear it, snatched the thing in her hand, and scolded: "Why are you so stupid? Blame and blame, or tell her what she thinks: "While you are young, don't hurry up and make some achievements, so that you can find an official and a half-job in the future, and enjoy glory and wealth in this palace for a long time!" ”

Zi Ying pouted and complained: "It is the business of the ladies to enjoy the glory and wealth, and we are just serving people." ”

"Nonsense, do you know how many years Zhou Shanggong is in a year?" Wang Siyi lowered his voice, stretched out his hand and gestured to four, gritted his teeth and said, "Four thousand taels!" More than an official doctor. ”

Ziying's eyes widened in shock, but she quickly figured it out: "Auntie, such a shrewd person is just an official, how can I be better than you?" ”

Wang Siyi shook his head angrily and scolded: "Stupid, isn't this paving the way for you?" ”

"What way?"

"What way?" Wang Siyi finally slapped Ziying, who was covered in lard, and asked, "Where are the drawings and embroideries of your wedding dress?" ”

Ziying covered her face, looked at Wang Siyi in a daze, and said after a long time: "I have a hard time embroidering an insoles, you know!" Not to mention...... I still want to draw a draft, where will I be? ”

"I won't go to school, I will study hard! In short, you must be the one who rushes to make the wedding dress this time! ”

As soon as she thought of embroidering clothes with needles, Ziying's hands ached faintly, and she muttered: "You did the embroidery the day before yesterday, did I go to embroider for a short time?" ”

Without a skill, how can you gain a foothold in the Shanggong Bureau? Could it be that Ziying can only be a rough palace maid? Wang Siyi only felt that his head was buzzing, and he originally planned to find someone to come in to inherit his mantle, but now it's good, it's a dou who can't be helped!

"Fu Wanxin knows how to steal, why can't you?"

There is no paper in the world that can hold the fire, not to mention that Wang Siyi was suspicious and raised Fu Wanxin.
