The competition went on as scheduled, and the other four also drew their own embroidery drawings to carry out, and this time the competition was fair and just, without a trace of impurities in it.

Su Xiaoman knew that he was just here to try, but he never thought that he would enter the final finals, embroidering stitches and threads, at this time it was already night, but the night outside the palace was still brightly lit.

Syllable......

The musician struck the urn, and Ruyi stepped forward and said: "The time for the competition has come, please stop the movements of your hands!" ”

Everyone stopped the needlework in their hands, and Su Xiaoman had already finished the embroidery he wanted at this time and waited quietly, Wei Yuan was really not disappointed in her, he saw Su Xiaoman be the first to complete the embroidery, and he didn't say anything to disturb the other embroiderers.

The official slave received the embroidery in turn to Wei Yuan's eyes, and the old embroidery girl in the palace and Wei Yuan jointly participated in the meeting, and the hall handed over the ears and eyes, and discussed on the lips, only to see a few people nodding frequently, and occasionally shaking their heads to veto.

Wei Yuan picked up Su Xiaoman's embroidery and admired it carefully, and the old embroidery girls also looked at it in surprise, frowning, and even more amazed.

After discussing for a while, Wei Yuan had a result in his heart, but he still wanted to hear what the meaning of these embroidered birds and phoenixes in front of him was, and he wanted to know more about Su Xiaoman's thoughts in his heart and why he would make such an embroidery.

Ruyi leaned over to Wei Yuan's side and listened to him muttering a few words softly, got up and shouted with a serious expression: "Please male embroidery Zhang Hua stepped forward to answer!" ”

Zhang Hua stepped forward with a woman-like body and listened to Wei Yuan's speech: "Your embroidery is an eagle, the embroidery is vivid and spiritual, I don't know what you think of your embroidery?" ”

Zhang Hua squatted like a woman and said: "Back to the words of the prince, as we all know, the eagle is a symbol of men's unruliness and debauchery, and the eagle embroidered by the small people really reflects the unshakable status and power of men!" ”

Wei Yuan nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, you go down!" ”

"Yes!"

Zhang Hua didn't know if his answer satisfied him, but he felt that although he liked women's dresses, men have been indispensable since ancient times, and the posture of the eagle happened to show the fortitude of the hundred birds and the phoenix.

Ruyi looked at Wei Yuan's eyes and nodded, and shouted again: "Please embroider Niang He Zi step forward to answer!" ”

He Zi is a taciturn woman, she wants to do her own embroidery, never likes to say a word, her dress is simple but does not lose her temperament, her appearance belongs to the durable type, she stepped forward, squatted and said: "The girl knocks on the prince!" ”

"Well, you embroider a pair of cranes, there is a feeling of immersion, I don't know what you think of the picture of a hundred birds and a phoenix?"

Wei Yuan looked at her embroidery, and there was really a fairy aura lingering like her, which made people feel intoxicated.

He Zi slowly spoke: "Back to the prince, the folk girl is what she thinks in her heart, and she has no other thoughts!" ”

It seems that what He Zi said did not satisfy Wei Yuan, what he wanted was not to conceal or keep silent, but to really have an opinion on the hundred birds and the phoenix, so he waved his hand to signal He Zi to go down, and looked at Su Xiaoman in a blink of an eye, and had already opened his mouth without wishful rumors: "Miss Su, come up and explain, why your picture is not based on a hundred birds!" They are all embroidered birds, but you are mainly landscaped, why is that? ”

Su Xiaoman stepped forward: "Back to the prince, the picture of a hundred birds towards the phoenix is a metaphor for the harmonious society of the people under the notice of the Ming Jun, the birds in the painting are nearly three hundred, if it is really to embroider, I am afraid it will take three years, so the people chose the phoenix as the main, the phoenix means the saint today, the landscape represents the people, the theme of the monarch is shengming, the river Yan Haiqing, the world is attached! ”

Bang Bang ......

"Haha! Well, that's a good point! ”

Wei Yuan clapped his palms happily, and an old embroidery girl beside him said: "The girl has used more than a dozen embroidery methods in such a short time, with fine needles and threads, bright and strict colors, rigorous structure, expressive image, and giving full play to the unique style of embroidery, even the old body is quite admired!" ”

"The old man has won the award, and where can we junior embroider with you, it must be a small thing in front of you!"

One of the old embroidery girls who sat there was really happy, and one of the old embroidery girls said: "I see that the girl's clothes have a unique style, I don't know which embroidery girl is from?" ”

Su Xiaoman pursed his lips and smiled: "Let you see it, this is just a randomly woven dress from the hands of the people's daughter!" Not worth mentioning! ”

Everyone felt that the woman in front of them was very humble and not a trace of arrogance.

"Okay, Ruyi, announce the results!"

"Yes!"

Wei Yuan commanded, and Ruyi shouted: "The five have all been shortlisted, the third embroidery girl He Zi, the second embroidery girl Du Chunyue, and the first place Zhang Hua!" ”

Everyone was surprised, obviously praising Su Xiaoman, but why is there no her in the ranking? In terms of her embroidery skills, if she is second, then no one dares to be first, which play is this staged, and the four of them looked at Su Xiaoman in surprise.

At this time, there was not the slightest ripple on her face.

And Qin Linshuang of the Qin Mansion had an ugly expression on his face, very surprised why he was not shortlisted, he didn't understand this, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "Lord Wang, if the people have questions, I don't know whether to talk about it or not?" ”

"Say!"

"I don't know if there are any deficiencies in the embroidery of the people's daughters, and I would like to ask the prince and the old people to give me some advice!"

Qin Linshuang is the concubine of the waiter of the Wupin Rite Department of the Dynasty, because her life at home is not easy because of the difference between her and her concubine since she was a child, so she feels that it is better to find another way out than rely on the family, so she came to the palace to participate in the splendid competition.

Wei Yuan didn't say much, just waved his hand and motioned for Ruyi to bring the embroidery of the other four to her and compare it with her own.

Qin Linshuang raised her eyes and looked at it, only then did she know that she was really not as talented and skilled as others, and smiled awkwardly: "It's a folk girl who knows less, I hope the prince will forgive me!" ”

Wei Yuan waved his hand and said: "It's okay, there are no surprises in the world, not to mention that you are a little girl who lives in the deep boudoir for a long time, so you naturally know less, your embroidery is actually not bad, if you open an embroidery workshop by yourself, it is not impossible!" ”

Qin Linshuang looked at him in surprise, why did he know what his family background was, and he understood his situation so clearly, lowered his head and pinched the handkerchief in his hand, and retreated with a red face.

Ahem......

Ruyi coughed lightly twice, distracting everyone's surprised expressions, and said with a smile: "The one who won the first place is Su Xiaoman, the embroidery girl of Huangfu, and the ranking is just a reward for you, the prince said that the main part of the Hundred Birds Chaofeng Diagram is completed by Miss Su, and you are assisting her!" Do you understand? ”

Su Xiaoman didn't expect to win the first place, he originally wanted to participate in the trial, but now he has such a heavy pick, if he can complete it, it will naturally be the best, but if he can't finish it, it will hurt the entire Huangfu, and suddenly he felt that he was not here to play, but to carry the burden.

After thinking for a while, he stretched his eyebrows again, thinking that the embroidered picture of a hundred birds and a phoenix was in the palace, and he didn't need to enter the palace, so he just entered the palace on the day of the dedication, and it was regarded as a day trip to the palace.

Wei Yuan got up and walked to Su Xiaoman, his beautiful face was reflected in front of him, Su Xiaoman looked at him and thought, this man in front of him is so handsome, what does it look like as the emperor's own brother, and instantly Lu Li's face appeared in Su Xiaoman's mind, looking at her with strange eyes, and he couldn't help but cover the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief.

"What are you laughing at?"

Seeing that her eyes were curved like a bright moon, she asked.

Su Xiaoman retracted the smile at the corner of his mouth and squatted: "It's nothing!" ”

Wei Yuan was completely full of curiosity about the woman in front of him, and wanted to know where this woman came from? Turning around and walking back to his seat, he said: "Tomorrow you come to the palace early to start preparing for the manufacture of the Hundred Birds and the Phoenix Map, this king will let people provide all the things you need, if anyone needs to live in the palace, you can also let Ruyi help you arrange it!" ”

"Yes!"

In fact, Wei Yuan just wanted Su Xiaoman to live in the palace, but because of Su Hanalan's face, it was not easy to call him alone, and in the end, Su Xiaoman did not live in the palace.

Syllable... Syllable...

There were two loud bangs at the gate of the palace, and the official slave took the gong and struck it vigorously twice, and shouted: "Su Xiaoman, the top prize of the Splendid Competition, Huangfu!" The first prize of the Splendid Competition, Huangfu Su Xiaoman! The first prize of the Splendid Competition, Huangfu Su Xiaoman! ”

shouted three times, pasted the official document on the bulletin stand, and everyone rushed up to see if their people were on the list.

At this time, Huang Yueyang waited happily behind the gate of the palace for a long time, Pearl helped Su Xiaoman out of the palace, Huang Yueyang stepped forward excitedly to greet him, and said softly: "County Lord, you are really amazing!" ”

People who knew Huang Yueyang also stepped forward to congratulate him, the scene was comparable to the title of the gold list, it was the end of the time when he left the palace, Su Xiaoman hurriedly got into the carriage and returned to the inn.

Wei Yuan sent people to follow the carriage of the Huang Mansion all the way to the inn, but the security of the inn was as tight as a copper wall, and the officials and slaves of the palace could not enter at all, so they could only go back to the palace first.

As soon as she arrived at the door of the inn, Lu Wangshu ran towards her with small steps, and directly pounced on Su Xiaoman's body and shouted: "Auntie, where have you been, your son wants to kill you, don't you want your son anymore!" ”

Su Xiaoman picked him up and walked into the inn, pinched his little nose and said, "Wangshu, why haven't you slept yet, are you naughty again?" ”

Lu Wangshu said with a childish smile: "What's the matter, it's obvious that A-Niang hasn't seen anyone for a day, and my son thinks you've been kidnapped!" ”

"Come down, your mother is tired for a day, and you still let her hold it, but I haven't hugged it yet!"

Lu Li watched his beloved lady finally come back.
