Chapter 171: Carved Jade Ball
"Sister Huo looks really good in this dress, and her face looks like jade." Danju exclaimed.
"Isn't it?" Zhou Yi'er also showed envy, "Sister Huo originally looked good in everything, and this dress made of azure material after the rain is the icing on the cake." ”
Huo Qinglian is wearing a newly made deep coat, the style is simple, but it is the kind of material that Su Ruhui has distributed that has rained and is azure, Xiao Huo's is originally a beauty who has captivated the country and the city, as Zhou Yi'er said, she looks good in everything, so it is suitable for both clothes and faces, even if there are women in the Detai Hall at the moment, she can't help but look at it in a daze.
The Queen Mother has always liked Xiao Huo's the most, and at this moment, she couldn't help nodding while watching with a conniving smile.
"Sister Ruhua......" Huo Qinglian was also very proud of this deep coat, so he deliberately wore it for everyone to see, but this would be praised by everyone, and he suddenly remembered that Su Ruhui also had a dress made of the same material, and her own set was still made of the material she sent, but she didn't know that showing off like this at the moment would make her unhappy.
saw Su Ruhui sitting at the bottom, holding a small golden hammer to peel walnuts in his hand, and said slowly: "Seeing the appearance of Sister Huo wearing this dress, I finally know what my third uncle said at the beginning." ”
"Oh?"
"My third uncle said that he saw a local one called Tian in the place where he found this material. The woman is wearing clothes made of the same material, and she is about to fly, and her elegance is peerless. Don't hide it from my sister, I listened to the third uncle's description of that day. Female, I'm a lot less interested in this material, but I regret that I can't see the girl that day, but I don't know what kind of beauty it is, and I actually deserve the third uncle to say that the elegance is peerless! Su Ruhui glanced at Huo Qinglian and said with a smile, "Now that I see my sister wearing it, I finally have a thing on my mind!" ”
Huo Qinglian was also attracted by the so-called heavenly girl she said at first, she was a beautiful woman with national beauty and fragrance, and when she heard someone say about another beautiful woman, she naturally gave birth to a competitive heart, but she didn't expect Su Ruhui to turn around and still praise her, and suddenly she was about to come up and pull her to let the queen mother call the shots.
laughed like this, and suddenly someone outside the palace came in to say goodbye, but it was the fourth highness who brought Princess Rongshou to greet the queen mother.
The Queen Mother ordered them to come in quickly.
The Fourth Highness was dressed in purple clothes, with a jade belt around her waist, and her feet on the clouds, but compared to other princes, she always seemed extremely silent and even humble, perhaps because his mother Xu's position was not high, and the Queen Mother had always deliberately ignored it among all the imperial grandchildren.
Seeing him, Su Ruhui had a strange thought in her heart, that is, if Xu knew that his son would grow like this, would he still insist on asking him to raise him? You must know that when Ganmei was born, although the queen, the concubine, and the concubine had already raised the prince, the virtuous concubine, one of the four concubines, even the current Concubine De, Lin Zhaoyi at that time, still has no children.
raised under the knees of these high-ranking concubines...... Look at Gan Ran is an example, Gan Ran's biological mother Han has now been demoted to a beauty, and she is just waiting for death in Feilan Yuan. But who in the entire palace dared to neglect Huo Guifei's only adopted son?
While thinking about it, Ganmei had already knelt down with Rongshou to salute, and the Queen Mother hurriedly shouted, gave Ganmei a seat, and beckoned Rongshou to pass.
Princess Rongshou is young, and because the palace has not been able to support the princess in the past few years, no one dared to take over after the death of her mother, only the Xu family hugged her, so in addition to being extremely close to the Xu family and Lumei, everyone else is a little timid. Although the Queen Mother often summoned her and treated her very much, the princess obviously trusted Ganmei more, and habitually looked at her fourth brother, and saw Ganmei nodding quietly, so she threw herself into the Queen Mother's arms.
Su Ruhui looked quietly, but she didn't see any displeasure from the Queen Mother, but she hugged Rong Shou lovingly, and asked her with a smile what she had eaten and liked in the past few days. Su Ru's picture book sat farther away, and she simply concentrated on smashing the walnuts, but she smiled slightly at the corner of her mouth, maintaining due etiquette.
Suddenly, a crisp and soft voice said, "...... That's her! ”
Su Ruhui looked up, but saw that not far away, Princess Rongshou was snuggled in the arms of the Queen Mother, but one hand was raised high and pointed at herself. She hurriedly put down the little golden hammer, got up and said with a smile: "Is the princess called a courtier?" ”
"Just sit down." The Queen Mother said with a smile, touched Princess Rongshou's face with satisfaction, and said approvingly, "The royal granddaughter of the mourning family is so smart, she can't point out the frosted jade bee for her, and this child remembers her like this." ”
It turned out that he was talking about this matter, Su Ruhui breathed a sigh of relief, and listened to Huo Qinglian and the others echoing it, Su Ruhui also pursed her lips and smiled and owed Princess Rongshou on the chair: "The princess remembers the courtier, this is the blessing of the courtier!" ”
Lunan smiled on the side: "Rong Shou has a really good memory, but this Miss Su didn't just point you to the icing jade bee, the jade ball you played with yesterday was given by Miss Su." ”
Yesterday, Su Ruhui returned from the palace for a few months, and she wanted to walk around and send a heart, Xu's position was low, and it was not enough for her to visit, but because she raised Ganmei and Rongshou under her knees, Su Ruhui also met Ganmei a few times when she was young, so she also sent something to send, among which the things given to Princess Rongshou were all toys made of gold and jade.
Princess Rongshou was reminded like this, and hurriedly broke away from the arms of the Queen Mother, and seriously thanked Su Ruhui for her salute: "Rongshou thank Miss Su for the gift!" That jade ball is very fun, and Rong Shou likes it very much! ”
"Princess, this is tormenting the courtier!" Rong Shou was young, but Su Ruhui didn't dare to really accept her gift, so she hurriedly stood up and returned the gift, "It's just some playthings, Princess Bo smiled, it's not worth anything." ”
Princess Rongshou pouted and said, "The mother concubine and the fourth brother said that the jade ball was not an ordinary thing, and Miss Su took a lot of effort to prepare, but unfortunately Rongshou can't return the same gift to Miss Su now, so I can only say thank you to Miss Su." ”
"Oh? What is the unusual method of carving jade balls? "Originally, the Queen Mother and the others didn't care when they heard the jade ball, there are actually a lot of royal things, Su Ruhui is the concubine of the gate valve, so she will naturally not be stingy when she shoots, thinking that it is nothing more than a carved jade ball, at most the jade texture is better, but listening to Princess Rongshou say this, it seems to be very different?
After all, no matter how low the Xu's status is and how luscious he is, he has been immersed in the palace for many years after all, and what can be praised by them should be a little bit good. The Queen Mother couldn't help but ask with curiosity.
It's just that Rong Shou said that words were decent, and let her describe how unusual the jade ball was, but she hesitated to say that she didn't understand, and only said after a while: "That ball, it's not cold!" ”
Huo Qinglian said: "That's carved by warm jade?" ”
Everyone showed a hint of disappointment when they heard this, Nuan Yu, this thing may be rare in the people, but it is seen a lot in the palace, and it is even used to build a bath.
"There's a lot of good things in there." Although Princess Rongshou is young, she can also see that the people around her are a little disdainful after she says that, she really likes the jade ball, and naturally she doesn't want people to underestimate it, so she tries to express it clearly.
"Huh?" Seeing this, Lumei explained with a smile: "The thing that Miss Su gave is really novel, even the mother and grandson have been stunned for a long time, and it is even more rare that as Rong Shou said, it is not cold at all in his hand, according to what the mother said, it is very intimate." ”
The Queen Mother nodded lightly when she heard this, and glanced at Su Ruhui approvingly, everyone here knows that Su Ruhui was born in the Su family, and it is not surprising that the precious treasure that is worth a city in the eyes of ordinary people is taken out, but the gift she gave to Princess Rongshou is not cold in her hand, and it does make the Queen Mother and Xu's and Ganmei very satisfied with her.
After the death of Princess Rongshou's mother, the reason why many childless and daughterless high-ranking concubines did not dare to take over her raising was precisely because she was frail. The palace has never been able to support the princess, and Princess Rongshou was always dying at that time, even if she was not born by herself, but no one wanted to usher in a premature death after such a plain effort.
Later, the Xu family took over, and with all his efforts, Rong Shou actually stumbled and survived, but the princess was congenitally deficient, frail, and extremely afraid of cold. Using gold and jade as the princess's plaything certainly shows the identity of the princess, but Princess Rongshou's body allows her to play with only those cotton velvet cloths that are warm with her tentacles when she plays, except for midsummer.
You must know that this male body is so weak that even the silk is not close to the body in the summer, just because the silk is cold in autumn and winter.
"The Fourth Highness and the princess are so proud that the courtiers are embarrassed, in fact, the jade ball is made by craftsmen, and the courtiers are just brought into the palace after seeing it, so light, where can they afford the repeated praise of His Royal Highness and the princess?" Su Ruhui said with a smile, "The carved jade ball, the outer layer is indeed warm jade, but it is not an ordinary inlay, but with exquisite skills, the warm jade is polished like paper, almost as transparent, but inside is a piece of pure water essence rolled out of the water spirit ball, the center of the ball, the craftsman chiseled out the hollow part, put in jadeite, agate, coral and other colored pearls, and then closed it so that there is no trace, so that the outside is pasted with a piece of warm jade...... As far as the courtiers know, that's all they know, it's just a gadget to relieve the boredom of Her Royal Highness the Princess. ”
"Oh? Hearing you say that, this is not a jade ball. The Queen Mother said angrily, "The mourning family thought it was very good when they saw the pair of jade bi you sent yesterday, but they didn't expect that you had other good things to hide for Rongshou!" ”
