Chapter 194: The Queen's Phoenix Hairpin
"You say, 'Can this woman win?' The Qin and Yue families have been making hairpins for a hundred years, and the emperor is obviously in a good mood when they walked out of the princess hall .......
"Your Majesty," Baba's big eunuch who followed him took advantage of his rare face, and took the opportunity to dare to say cautiously: "If this return to the clan is not successful, then it will not be impossible to get out of the palace, then Lord Ji ......"
In fact, yesterday night, the secret envoy sent by His Majesty to the northern frontier had already received a letter, saying that he was still in contact with Lord Ji, and the reason why he had not returned to the capital was precisely to seek evidence to prove his innocence and find out the real traitor.
After the big eunuch finished speaking, he quickly looked at the emperor's face and knew that he had lost his words.
"I didn't expect you to be loyal," the emperor said with a smirk.
"Your Majesty atonements, the slave and maid lost their words, and the slave and maid deserve to die." The big eunuch hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed.
"Go to the Xinzhiku and receive the punishment for ten days."
"Yes, thank you." The eunuch broke out in a cold sweat, he was blown by the wind and felt cold everywhere, and he accompanied the king like a tiger, and he had been a slave for so many years, how could he still not understand it.
In fact, this eunuch has always been steady and cautious, never said what should not be said, did not listen to what should not be heard, and was cautious in words and deeds, so that he could always serve by the emperor's side. But he is different from other eunuchs, he is still young, his heart is still hot, and he has not yet been soaked in the cold inner courtyard of the deep palace.
Let's say that after Gui Mingyue's side got the emperor's promise, he immediately became excited. Regardless of whether he was from Zhao Jun in his previous life, as long as she could get out of the palace at that time, she would no longer be entangled in any past and present lives, she just wanted to go to the northern Xinjiang as soon as possible to find Ji Yunyi's whereabouts.
In order to win this hairpin-making competition, Gui Mingyue went to the palace of the Queen Mother and got the permission of the Queen Mother. That is why she can select a hairpin-making palace man from the Shanggong Bureau as an assistant.
The Shanggong Bureau itself did not participate in this hairpin making competition, they did not try, and what they did before were vetoed by the new queen, and the new queen disliked their old style and had no new ideas.
Angelica Mingyue stepped into the Shanggong Bureau, there was a feeling of yesterday, this is the case in the palace, every grass and tree, after a few years or even decades, it has not changed, and it will always be the name of those delicate and beautiful new palace concubines.
And this Shanggong Bureau is still the same as when Gui Mingyue was in the past. Wu Shanggong is still the manager of the Shanggong Bureau, but Si Zhenfang has a young Zhangzhen, surnamed Bai, Gui Mingyue looked at it, and at a glance felt that this Bai Zhangzhen was ambitious, and his heart was full of desire to climb up.
Gui Mingyue has never hated ambitious people, as long as she has the ability and craftsmanship, Gui Mingyue feels that appropriate ambition can stimulate people's talents more.
But Gui Mingyue still tested them a little as usual, and then selected two palace people who were more satisfied with him from Si Zhen's room to assist him, one was an ordinary palace person surnamed Qin with a docile temperament, and the other was this Bai Zhangzhen.
In the next ten days, Gui Mingyue made drawings, materials, and processes, and Baizhangzhen was made according to the drawings, and the people of the Qin Palace started to do it.
Bai Zhangzhen's handicraft skills are quite superb, otherwise she would not have climbed all the way to the position of Zhangzhen, but she is anxious, and sometimes she will be a little anxious. And this Qin Palace person is just the opposite, extremely patient, very serious in doing things, and docile and graceful, although the craftsmanship is not good, but he knows how to hide clumsily and avoid the edge, and it also complements each other to do things under the hands of the fiery Bai Zhangzhen.
Three days later, the pattern of Gui Mingyue was made, and Bai Zhangzhen looked at it at first glance, and his eyes were victorious.
I couldn't suppress the joy in my heart, and looked at it again and again in amazement.
"Mrs. Ji is really extraordinary, this phoenix hairpin is really full of ingenuity and exquisiteness, if it is made like this, it will definitely be loved by the queen." Wu Shanggong is old, and the position of Shanggong will have to be given up sooner or later, as long as he can make a hairpin according to this pattern, and get the queen's blue eyes, why worry about the position of Shanggong falling next to the family.
Even the people of the Qin Palace, who have always been immersed in things and never say much, had to be surprised when they saw this pattern.
This is a fan-shaped phoenix wearing a leno peony pattern golden hairpin, which is different from the ordinary long hairpin, and is drawn on three sides on the pattern drawing.
The front is fan-shaped, the fan head is clustered with five flower heads, the inner light is the flourishing peony and chrysanthemum, the phoenix and the phoenix shuttle among them, the back is attached to a layer of gold filament pinched into a thin gold mist, the hairpin beam on the side is carved with folded peach blossoms, just clustered with the phoenix and peony flowers on the front......
The hairpin in the picture is drawn as fine as silk, vivid, and jumps into a phoenix hairpin with complicated workmanship and exquisite to the extreme.
"The phoenix hairpin should be golden, I plan to use gold for the hairpin, but the wings of the phoenix and the phoenix are made of a little emerald, what do the two adults think?" Gui Mingyue pointed to the phoenix on the pattern and said.
"Very good, but," Bai Zhangzhen hesitated a little, a little embarrassed, but still said: "This emerald method is really too profound, I haven't fully grasped its essentials......"
"What about Lord Qin? Can you be sure of the method of dotting emeralds? Gui Mingyue asked incomprehensibly.
The people of the Qin Palace hesitated for a moment, but when they saw the look of encouragement in Gui Mingyue's eyes, and looked at the exquisite phoenix hairpin on this drawing, it was really fascinating, so they nodded their heads.
"You ......" Bai Zhangzhen didn't expect this Qin Palace person to know how to order the emerald method, she was a dignified Zhangzhen, but she was compared to a small palace person, and she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Gui Mingyue smiled and nodded, she also occasionally found in that small test that the craftsmanship of this Qin Palace person was actually no worse than Bai Zhangzhen's, as for why it was clumsy, Gui Mingyue also understood very well, a newcomer, if he lived peacefully in this deep palace, he would not be able to show some limelight that should not be out.
It's just that Gui Mingyue really wants to win this time, so she was singled out.
"In this case, Lord Qin is responsible for giving this phoenix hairpin some emeralds." Diancui is the most testing technique, and it takes the most time.
"Don't dare, Mrs. Ji is polite." The people of the Qin Palace said respectfully.
Bai Zhangzhen sneered, noncommittal, but in the next few days, he didn't have a good face for this Qin Palace person, and he would sarcastically say a few words at every turn, but the Qin Palace people were always good at cultivation and never replied, and this Bai Zhangzhen felt very boring.
Until two days before the queen's coronation ceremony, the phoenix hairpin was just finished.
Bai Zhangzhen was already extremely tired, and she went to bed early with a wooden face.
In the palace people's bedroom in Si Zhen's room, there were little sisters who were good friends with the Qin palace people, and they couldn't help but come to the Qin palace people, chattering and excited, and everyone was really happy for her.
"The most important thing is that you did it, she is good, that posture is all her credit, Mrs. Ji also let her go to sleep and rest, I think the most credit should be you." The little sister said angrily, she also suffered a lot of scolding and white eyes from the white palm in Su Ri.
"You be quiet, be careful of being listened to by someone with a heart......" The Qin palace people hurriedly stopped her, and looked outside with a heavy heart, and no one was relieved a little.
"Hmph, you're such a noodle character!"
"Okay, tomorrow is the time to present the hairpin for His Majesty and Niangniang to taste, and I'll go to Mrs. Ji to see if there's anything else I need to help do." The people of the Qin Palace went out as they spoke.
"Also, I don't know what the other two have done like the phoenix hairpin, anyway, they can't get past our ......" the little palace maid muttered.
The steps of the Qin Palace people froze, and then quickly returned to normal, and walked out quickly.
On the second day, Gui Mingyue was taken to Wende Store by the chief eunuch, followed by Wu Shanggong with an expectant face, Bai Zhangzhen who was tired but his eyes were unusually bright, and the cautious and docile Qin Palace people.
"Lord Zhangzhen, I've worked hard for you these past few days, I'll take it," the Song Palace people stepped forward to take the tray.
"Snort" Bai Zhangzhen sneered, and moved the tray in his hand to the side without a trace, and the Qin Palace people took it empty.
"Let's go, don't tell Your Majesty and Niangniang to wait." The eunuch screamed.
Arrived at the Wende Hall.
Sure enough, seeing that the emperor and queen were already sitting on the high seat, in addition to these two people, there were several ministers, namely Lord Song of the Ministry of Rites, Lord Qing Su of Honglu Temple, and several adults of Taichang Temple.
It seems that the hairpin on the head of the coronation of the queen has become a major state affair.
Only then did Gui Mingyue secretly look at this new queen, her appearance was not extremely beautiful, but she was beautiful and beautiful, and her temperament was extremely dignified.
In addition to Gui Mingyue and them, the other Yue and Qin hairpins also stood solemnly on both sides, but looking at their faces, they all showed extremely confident complexions.
After everyone worshiped the emperor, it was the time to taste the hairpin.
"Yue's hairpin," I only heard a long shout from the chief eunuch.
Yue presented a tray covered with a red cloth.
The eunuch stepped forward to remove the red cloth.
This is an auspicious cloud dancing phoenix hairpin, into the eye extremely gorgeous and colorful, auspicious clouds are brilliant and bright like the glow, is inlaid by six colors of precious gemstones, auspicious clouds stand a dancing phoenix, the wings of the phoenix are smart, can be called fairy posture elegant, this auspicious cloud dancing phoenix hairpin actually also used a little emerald method!
The eunuch took the hairpin to the emperor and the queen, and then took it to the eyes of the adults in turn.
Lord Song of the Ministry of Rites stroked his beard and nodded, glanced at the Taichang Siqing beside him, and nodded frequently.
Looking at the emperor and queen again, there was a smile on his face, and he seemed to be extremely satisfied, and the Yue family couldn't help but look complacent.
"Qin's hairpin," the eunuch's high-pitched voice remembered again.
As soon as the eunuch opened the veil covering the tray, the ministers in the palace immediately turned their heads and ears, and even the queen couldn't help but stand up and walked over with a stunning smile on her face.
On the tray of the Qin family, there is a golden hairpin with a phoenix wearing a sara peony pattern!
It is a much more delicate phoenix wearing sara peony pattern golden hairpin than Gui Mingyue and them, and this hairpin is obviously closer to the style on the drawings drawn by Gui Mingyue.
The process of the golden peony and the phoenix body, the golden Kaiguang fan and the back of the golden silk is the same as that made by the white palm Zhen, the difference is that it is the method of dotting the cui, the people of the Qin Palace use the green feathers, and this is the extremely rare golden peacock's fine down feathers dotted with emerald, and this process is much more skilled than the people of the Qin Palace.
"This, this...... It's obviously our ......" Wu Shanggong was horrified, but she had seen too many conspiracies and tricks in the palace for so many years, and finally had to sigh hatefully, it seems that this time Mingyue has been enlightened by others, Wu Shanggong couldn't help but look at Gui Mingyue uncomfortably.
I saw that her face was expressionless, but how could Wu Shanggong not know the anger in her heart, and then look at Bai Zhangzhen even more iron-blue.
"Yes," said the Queen.
Also, such a luxurious, very beautiful hairpin is really something that any woman in the world will fall in love with.
"Hahaha," Master Song, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, laughed and said: "It's not a loss to the Qin family, who is the first hairpin master of the Great Eastern Dynasty, the old man has seen it today, and the rest doesn't have to look at it, I believe there will be no more luxurious and exquisite heads in the world......"
"Lord Song's words are premature, and the lower officials may not see that there is no better." Master Su of Honglu Temple said. Gui Mingyue shop jewelry, he is also common, because of the youngest daughter Su Tingwei, almost all the female relatives in the house head jewelry are from Angelica Pavilion.
is based on his ability to return to Mingyue, but he is more optimistic.
