Chapter 217: Winter Exam

Two days passed in a blink of an eye, and the winter solstice was approaching every year, and the people in the palace had already put on the padded jackets issued by the Shangfu Bureau.

The winter solstice is approaching, and the first three days are the beginning of the assessment of the palace maid in front of the palace, and the assessment is in the sixth bureau. There are seven examiners, who are the chief of the six bureaus, and there is also a palace maid in front of the palace.

The chief examiner is Kong Shanggong, the chief secretary of the Shanggong Bureau. At this time, she was standing at the top of the examination room, and there were three examiners sitting on either side. Scanning the crowd, she slowly spoke about the rules of this assessment:

"In this imperial palace female assessment, I am the chief examiner, and the other six examiners are the chief directors of the other five bureaus. Aunt Cheng Jin, the maid of the imperial palace, was the examiner.

The assessment will be conducted for five days, and one test will be taken every day. They are moment, determination, nature, instrumentation, and cognition. The fixed number is one to ten. After each assessment, seven examiners will give a number individually, with the best being ten and the worst being one. The sum of the marks given by the examiner is the number of the referees.

After the five assessments, all the numbers obtained are added up, and the one with the highest value is the winner, and he is selected as the queen of the palace. ”

As he spoke, Kong Shanggong's gaze swept over the women who were assessed, and his gaze swept over Wen Qingwu as if he were nothing. Then he asked loudly, "But do you understand?" ”

"Got it." All the palace ladies responded in unison.

"So, take a seat, start the exam!" After Kong Shanggong finished speaking, he lowered his body and sat down.

The words fell, and the elbow brought up the embroidery frames one by one, and placed them in front of each reference palace maid. At this time, Yang Shangfu of the Shangfu Bureau got up and said, "Today's test is 'moment'." I'm the main exam.

The first place in the main test of women's talent is female red. For the servant, the female red is the basic. Although the emperor's daily wear is cut by the Shangfu Bureau, the embroidery is also controlled by the decorations, and the best embroidery girl in the world does. But it is impossible to carry it with you all the time. If His Majesty is outside the palace, his clothes are torn, or he suddenly asks for clothes of some kind of appearance, as a palace maid in front of the palace, he has an unshirkable responsibility. Therefore, today's female red test.

Cloth, scissors, embroidery frames and silk threads have been placed in front of everyone, and today's assessment is mainly divided into three parts: tailoring, sewing, and embroidery. ”

As he spoke, Yang Shangfu looked at Tian'er. Qin Tian has calculated that these days will be a rare sunny day. Today is indeed the sun scorching.

"Now in the middle of the hour, from now on, no one is allowed to leave their positions. There are two toilet opportunities for each person along the way. There will be six bureaus and twenty-four divisions to follow, and no more than half a cup of tea will be held each time. In the afternoon, when the sun sets, that is, you are positive, and when the hour comes, you will receive the female red you have made.

If someone violates the rules in the middle of the process, the assessment qualification will be eliminated and expelled from the examination room.

Does everyone get it? ”

"Understood." The palace maids sitting below responded.

"Okay, the female red I made today, the title is the four gentlemen in the flowers - plum, orchid, bamboo, chrysanthemum, choose a theme among them, and make your own finished product. Others are unlimited. After that, Yang Shangfu's gaze swept over everyone, stopped at Wen Qingwu, and then moved away, and said loudly: "Start the exam!" ”

Wen Qingwu sat in his place, glanced at the several examiners sitting above, and then looked down at the pile of things in front of him.

Cloth silk, rulers, pens, lime pens, scissors, embroidery frames, needles of different thicknesses, colorful silk threads.

She thought it was just embroidery, although she wasn't ready to embroider, but she still let Liu Ye teach herself. I gave up the struggle to be better than others, but I was about to be able to embroider something.

Unexpectedly, there is also such a thing as cutting and sewing to make clothes...... Not at all.

Wen Qingwu turned his head, and the maids next to him had already buried their heads and began to use rulers to quickly cut their clothes. It seems that everyone knows the size of the emperor well.

Wen Qingwu just turned his head, and before he finished reading a circle, he heard Yang Shangfu say: "Be your own, you are not allowed to look around!" ”

Wen Qingwu turned around and saw Yang Shangfu looking at him with a straight face.

She looked down and continued to look at the pile in front of her.

After thinking about it, I picked up the pen and started to draw directly on the embroidery cloth.

I couldn't do cutting and sewing at all, so I just gave up. Let's embroider a picture.

Plum, orchid, bamboo, chrysanthemum, among them, she picked the most difficult chrysanthemum to embroider. It took so much time to do it in a day, and she used it to embroider chrysanthemums on this day.

If she embroiders slowly, she can still do it.

Everyone else embroidered directly, and when Liu Ye taught her, she pondered a shortcut by herself. That is, first draw a pattern, and then embroider the silk thread according to the color of the eyes that have been painted on the painting.

I didn't have enough tools to color, but I was still able to draw a rough appearance with a pen, and it didn't take long to draw gorgeous chrysanthemums on the embroidered cloth. Blooming among the flowers, there are colorful butterflies on the top, and the flower branches are swaying and sealing, slightly tilted.

Although it can't embroider others, the painting is incomparable to the little palace maids. Just by drawing it like this, there are already three gods.

Wen Qingwu spent half an hour to draw, and then compared the needle and thread one by one, and compared it for half an hour, and then he still took the needle and began to embroider one by one.

Because of her rustiness, she embroidered very slowly, and she worked slowly, and besides, she still had a whole day, so she was not in a hurry at all.

The leaky pot placed in front of the examination room flowed drop by drop, and time flowed by drop by drop, Wen Qingwu rarely embroidered like this, his neck was a little unbearable, the embroidery stopped, and he painted for more than three hours. I embroidered that little picture.

Wen Qingwu embroidered it, took the embroidery picture and looked at it carefully, very satisfied. Because the foundation of the painting is good, the appearance of this embroidery is also excellent, but the embroidery is a little poor, and if you look closely, many sides are not neat.

However, Rao is like this, Wen Qingwu is still very satisfied. In his previous life, who would believe that he would sit in front of the embroidery frame and embroider a flower one day?

I don't believe it myself.

Wen Qingwu was very satisfied, she put the embroidered cloth away, looked at the leaky pot on it, and there was still more than an hour before the unitary time. I didn't get a drop of water for a day, and I was a little tired. I had nothing to do, so I just lay down on the embroidery stand and took a nap.

Yang Shangfu stood next to the palace maid who was assessed, turning his hands behind his back. This is a rare opportunity to see the palace maids. There are so many people, and only one of them is admitted to the palace maid in front of the palace. If the others are not admitted, they are still where they were before.

It just so happens that the Shangfu Bureau needs female celebrity talents, and if she can fancy a few female celebrities, she is lucky. So since noon, when the finished products of the female red came out one after another, she did not sit in the position. Instead, they got up and spun around one by one.

After turning around for a while, I saw Kong Shanggong above signaling to himself with his eyes. Yang Shangfu followed Kong Shanggong's gaze and happened to see Wen Qingwu sleeping on the embroidery frame.

First stunned, then frowned. Can you still sleep during the test? Yang Shangfu strode over and stood next to Wen Qingwu, the cloth in her hand was still completely set aside, and there was no trace of cutting at all. On the embroidery frame, a pair of chrysanthemums were embroidered.
