"Is it a fake bead?"

"It's not a fake bead either...... Even after a long time, the beads are a little rotten. ”

Liu Yanguang had heard of the word "Zhuhuang", but she had never seen what people looked like when they were old, and what they looked like when they were old.

"Who did that?"

Yingluo smiled: "Zuo is just those people." ”

It's not the inner palace supervisor, or the inner treasurer. As for the people in the needle workshop, they may not be innocent. But for such a big thing as changing beads, they probably don't have the guts. But like the benefits of gold and silver thread and some scraps, they can definitely leave a lot behind. For example, if you have received a total of dozens of catties of gold and silver thread, can it all be used on the auspicious clothes of the five princesses? Is it clothes or armor that is embroidered? It's good to be able to use one-tenth, and the rest is reported to be lost. Another example is the jade of the collar as an ornament, and a large piece of jade is finally carved out of a string of small beads, what about the others? Of course, it is also "depleted".

Yingluo understands these things, and of course Empress Cao also understands. However, if the water is clear, there are no fish, and as long as it is not too excessive, they will generally not be pursued. The same is true for a new group of people, and maybe even more greedy.

But this time, it's clear that these people are overfishing.

Some were quietly replaced—and what was coveted was quietly replaced.

This kind of thing is not new in the palace at all.

Liu Yan thinks that the person who makes fake beads is quite talented, and he doesn't know how to get a shell on the outside of the fake beads, and it looks like the real beads.

If it weren't for the accidental rubbing off of the skin of the beads, maybe this thing would not have been discovered, and these beads might have been inlaid on the phoenix crown that Liu Yu married, on the auspicious clothes, or on the shoes. Anyway, after this auspicious dress is done, Liu Yu will only wear it on the day of marriage, only once, and the clothes and shoes that this body has spent a lot of money will be pressed to the bottom of the box, and Liu Yu will definitely not wear it again in the future, this dress probably has no chance to see the light of day again, so the risk of being found to be fake is not great.

It was also those people who were unlucky, but this fake bead was discovered.

Yingluo felt that she needed to give the fourth princess a heads-up.

"The princess thinks that the fake pearl was discovered, and that those people are really unlucky? Or is the fifth princess too lucky? ”

Liu Yan was stunned: "Isn't it?" ”

Yingluo smiled: "What's this, the slave doesn't know." However, the embroidery girl who found the fake beads heard that she had a little friendship with Feng Shanggong of Lu Jingxuan before. Of course, Feng Shanggong has a lot of friends, the inner palace supervisor has her past acquaintances, the inner treasurer also has it, and Buku also has ...... After staying in the palace for a long time, who doesn't have a few acquaintances and old acquaintances? ”

Yingluo's meaning, Liu Yan understood.

But she was wondering, was this incident done by Feng Shanggong alone, or did Liu Yu also know about it, or was it what Liu Yu meant at all?

Did she already know that someone was doing tricks in her dowry and planning to cheat her?

Liu Yan guessed that she knew.

Feng Shanggong and Liu Yu have shared hardships, and their friendship with each other is not comparable to that of ordinary masters and servants. In addition, Feng Shanggong was sick a while ago, and Liu Yu specially invited a doctor for her - it is said that although Shanggong is a female official of high rank, she is not qualified to ask a doctor to see her when she is sick. Anhe Palace and Lu Jingxuan are next to each other, and if there is any movement on the other side of the wall, Anhe Palace can know all seven, seven, eight or eight. Liu Yu can take care of Feng Shanggong, and I heard that he also brought her a decoction with his own hands.

Feng Shanggong will definitely not go behind Liu Yu's back to do his own thing.

Liu Yu's method of solving troubles can be said to be very clever.

She knew that the dowry was withheld, but if she went to tell Empress Cao to beg her to be in charge, not only would she offend people, but she was afraid that she would be even more hated and would encounter more trouble in the future.

Now that the matter is settled, and the dowry that has been withheld has been made up, she has not made enemies for herself again.

Compared with the rampaging Liu Yu before, she has undoubtedly grown up now and learned to be mature and mellow.

But......

It's impossible to do everything and satisfy everyone.

This matter will inevitably lead to a reputation of not being noticed, and no one else has to say that Queen Cao does not care about the concubine and deliberately connives. Otherwise, why didn't this happen when the first three princesses got married? Partial birth to the fifth princess came out? It's not because women will be jealous, even if Concubine Cui has been dead for many years, Queen Cao still doesn't want to see her daughter.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter day by day, Liu Yan can only change his previous habits, and travel either early in the morning or in the evening when the sun will set.

The second princess was born.

She didn't give birth well, stayed in the delivery room for two days, and gave birth to a daughter.

This child was born early in the morning when the sun rose, Lu Juma was very happy, not at all lost because he gave birth to a daughter, happily hugged this precious daughter and did not let go, and wanted to name her Xi.

Liu Yan has seen the child, and they all say that the newborn child is not good-looking, but Liu Yan thinks that the two nieces and daughters are very good-looking. The eldest sister's Hui'er was extremely white and tender just two days after she was born, and the daughter of the second princess can also be seen to be a beautiful child, with a small nose and a small mouth.

Liu Yanting is glad for this girl, fortunately she will be the president, and she looks like the second princess, but not so much like her father Lu Gongma. Lu Juma is so big and three thick, if his daughter looks like him, then don't frighten people.

Liu Fang was pregnant and it was inconvenient to come to visit Zhao Yuxi's mother and daughter. Liu Yan didn't know what was the fear of this, but in short, the people around him said so, so it made sense.

However, when Liu Yan went to visit Liu Fang, she heard about her worries.

The eldest princess and the second princess both gave birth to daughters, and Liu Fang was a little worried that she was also a daughter.

Of course, the daughter is also good.

It's just that...... After all, it's better to be a son.

Liu Yan made Liu Fang's worry amused.

"Why should the third sister worry about this? What did the Imperial Physician say? ”

"Imperial doctors are all slippery, who is willing to say it correctly, they are all ambiguous." Liu Fang whispered to Liu Yan: "I let people calculate it, saying that according to the years, months and hours, I should be pregnant with a son." ”

Liu Yan thought it was funny.

However, since Liu Fang was pregnant, she always wanted to come out of the same way, and her mood was good and bad for a while, and Liu Yan also picked up good words to comfort her.

"The boys are good, and the girls are good. Look at the eldest sister, how capable she is, how many things she has taken care of for the queen mother, and how much effort she has saved. It's good to have a daughter, so that I can take care of my younger siblings behind. ”

Liu Fang really turned her worries into joy, nodded and said, "You're right!" That's the reason. ”
