Chapter 143: Symmetry, Taboo

Zhang Derong was covered in cold sweat, and he could understand that he could understand that in the palace, many concubines like to have a small pet to play around.

But getting a cat to warm up? How dare she tell Your Majesty? No wonder there were days when His Majesty gritted his teeth at the mention of a cat—and for this reason.

Forget it, for the sake of a cat, she actually showed His Majesty the 'color' on her face? She...... What a guts.

However, the courage of the one in the Qinghe Hall has always been great.

"The cat is very small" Zhang Derong thought for a while, and then said, "It's not very easy to hug at night, and it's not good to 'get', it will give people a claw, and what's worse, if there is a flea or something, if you are bitten, the taste is not good - this is definitely not the first choice for warming the 'bed'." ”

Yang Xi suddenly had a feeling of crying and laughing, why didn't there be a more normal person around him? Originally, Zhang Derong was an old man who was used to being around him, and he looked at things and talked on weekdays, and he followed the rules, but he didn't expect that there seemed to be some problems with his brain recently.

Probably angry, he actually followed Zhang Derong's topic and asked: "Then you say, what is the best thing to warm the 'bed'?" ”

"Of course it's human," Zhang Derong said seriously, "Don't Your Majesty think so?" ”

"Calm and calm" Yang Xi took a deep breath and said secretly in his heart, "You really can't discuss the topic of 'bed' supplies with a eunuch...... Otherwise, sooner or later you will vomit blood. ”

"Does Your Majesty think that the minion is wrong?" Zhang Derong asked again without knowing whether he was alive or dead, "On such a cold day, Your Majesty should consider letting Mrs. Chenrong change to a pet ...... that warms the 'bed'."

"Someone else?" Yang Xi glared at him fiercely and scolded, "Change a man? ”

Zhang Derong suddenly understood why Yang Xi was angry, it turned out that he was actually eating the cat's vinegar...... Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing, sure enough, this kind of thing came out of Mrs. Chenrong, but I was afraid that no one would be able to do it.

If it is replaced by other concubines, this matter will be neglected from now on, and in the big picture, this is simply a crime of bullying the king, degraded to a concubine, and it will be enough to defeat the cold palace from now on.

Yang Xi had already flicked his sleeves, turned around and walked towards the Qinghe Palace.

After sending Xiao Xizi away, Chen Qingxuan was leaning on the soft couch, looking at the plum and bamboo embroidered with 'flowers', since she entered the palace, she has been favored by the saints, and the rewards are continuous, among which the various 'colors' of silk and satin are countless, the plum and bamboo see that she is dressed very ordinarily on weekdays, and now the New Year is approaching, although according to the rules, Chen Qingxuan will have a special 'door' of the Shangyi Bureau to tailor various 'color' dresses and New Year's clothes for her.

But these two girls are idle and have nothing to do, in Chen Qingxuan's Qinghe Palace, because Yang Xi made a special trip to come over in the later period, now there are many idlers who eat, and all the rough work outside is 'handed over' to the little wrestlers to dispose of, inside, as long as Mei Zi and Bamboo are responsible for taking care of Chen Qingxuan's diet and daily life, there is nothing to do on weekdays.

Therefore, the two discussed that it would be better to do it themselves and make her some winter clothes.

Chen Qingxuan listened, and there was no objection, anyway, those silk and satin were put away, and they were also put away, the two of them loved to toss, so let them toss, even if they were bad, it was not a big deal, at most, it was 'wasted' to spend some cloth, and she didn't feel heartache at all.

These two little girls actually have a good 'flower', and the plum craftsmanship is slightly worse, but the craftsmanship of bamboo is really not wrong, Chen Qingxuan asked a little to know that bamboo was originally a Jiangnan person, and the unique skill of tying 'flowers' with one hand is ancestral. The ancestor used to be a small official, because of the crime, the 'women' were not sent to the palace as slaves, and she was also among them......

Hearing the bamboo's explanation, Chen Qingxuan not only sighed - lun Li, this bamboo is also a young lady from a small 'door' family, but it's a pity...... It's not the right time.

Outside, Zhang Derong's slightly embarrassed voice sounded: "Your Majesty has arrived"

Bamboo and plum hurriedly threw away the embroidery thread in their hands, got up and went to make the curtain—

"Qing is quiet here" Yang Xi's gaze fell on the royal blue 'colored' jacket, and said with a smile, "This is Qing's winter coat?" ”

"The two girls are idle and bored" Chen Qingxuan got up and greeted her, and said with a smile, "Why does Your Majesty have time to come over now?" ”

Yang Xi smiled mysteriously, looked at the plum and the bamboo, the two girls were very clever, and immediately hurriedly poured the tea, and then withdrew.

"I finally know why Qing has been angry in the past two days," Yang Xi smiled mysteriously.

"Xiao Xizi's minion, you should slap your mouth" Chen Qingxuan was slightly stunned, and then she understood that it was bound to be what Xiao Xizi said.

"Haha......" Yang Xi couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and then said, "I'm confused, no wonder Qing is angry, and I can't understand Qing's intentions." ”

"My things, naturally, can't be put anywhere else......" Chen Qingxuan smiled, "Especially since that person is still a man." ”

"Uh......" Yang Xizheng nodded his head, "It's confused...... he said, his eyes turned, and he landed on a red 'colored' jacket resting on the soft couch, and immediately took it over, the jacket is obviously new, it is very simple and cut, but at the edge, embroidered with a peony peacock suddenly.

This is the 'flower' style that the concubines in the palace like, Yang Xi doesn't think it's strange, but the strange thing is that the 'flower' style of the general palace show 'female' show is all symmetrical.

"Why is this 'flower' only embroidered on one side?" Yang Xi asked curiously.

"The peony peacock's 'flower' style is relatively large, this is just an ordinary small jacket, if both sides are embroidered, it looks very cumbersome" Chen Qingxuan smiled, "I painted the pattern and asked them to embroider it, so it looks better" said, she pointed to the blue 'color' jacket that has not yet been embroidered, and said with a smile, "Look at that, the butterfly play 'flower' pattern is only embroidered on the left, isn't it very chic?" ”

Yang Xi was thinking about it, should I tell her this question? Asymmetrical embroidery, in fact, is a taboo in the palace?

"What's wrong?" Chen Qingxuan saw that Yang Xi's face was strange, and asked curiously, "What's wrong with you today?" If you don't look good, just say it, anyway, it's not for you to see."

"Uh......" Yang Xi was stunned, depressed in his heart, and asked, "If you don't wear it for me, who are you going to wear it to?" ”

"Your concubines?" Chen Qingxuan smiled happily, "Didn't you see the concubines in the palace, all of them wearing 'flowers' and branches?" ”

"Asymmetrical embroidery has always been a taboo in the palace, it's not a bad problem" Yang Xi smiled lightly, "However, if you like it, it's fine, it's not a big deal"

"This broken embroidery is still taboo?" Chen Qingxuan asked puzzled.

"Everything in the palace has to pay attention to auspiciousness, so the asymmetrical one has always been forbidden in the palace" Yang Xi laughed for a while, but it looked really chic when embroidered like this, and if the two sides were symmetrical, it would look old-fashioned after all.

"I was still narcissistic just now, I thought I was very smart, and I actually came up with such a good attention, but I didn't expect it to be a taboo ......" Chen Qingxuan sighed with some dissatisfaction, "So what should I do?" Do you want them to embroider peacocks on this side too? Look, this is embroidered into a peacock, what has it become? ”

"It's really not good-looking" Yang Xi took the clothes, looked at them for a long time, nodded and said, "If there are peacocks embroidered here, it's not clothes, it's ......" Speaking of this, he not only laughed.

"Hmph" Chen Qingxuan snatched the clothes from his hand, threw them aside, and turned his back to ignore him.

"Okay, don't be angry" Yang Xi smiled, he was still very happy to see her like such a little 'girl' child, "Taboo or not, in fact, it's just a sentence from me, even if this emperor does a little bit of a, some things have to be done by those ministers who can't figure it out, but I can still do such a small thing."

"You're here to tease me?" Chen Qingxuan raised her head and asked.

"No," Yang Xi said with a smile, "The New Year is approaching, I am here to ask you, are you going to the Taimiao Temple with me to worship?" ”

If other concubines can go to the Taimiao Temple to worship, it is a supreme honor, Yang Xi doesn't even need to ask, in fact, countless concubines will rush to go.

But because of Chen Qingxuan's identity, he can't guarantee that she has no prejudice against the first emperor, and she will be willing to go to the Taimiao Temple to worship? Moreover, according to the rules, whether to go to the Taimiao to worship or not is not something that her, the little Mrs. Chenrong, can decide.

The queen and the fourth concubine of the first grade, that must go, and there is no excuse for any reason, and the second and third grade ladies and nine concubines depend on His Majesty's intentions.

Concubines below the second grade can only worship outside the Taimiao, not like the Taimiao. As for the person who goes, it is naturally up to Yang Xi.

"Don't go" Chen Qingxuan shook her head categorically, the first emperor can be regarded as her enemies, including the ancestors of the Yang family, she doesn't have a good impression of them.

Their family was born and died for the Great Zhou Kingdom, but in the end, what did they get? casually deducted a crime of rebellion, killed 200,000 soldiers, and in the end, she fled thousands of miles......

"I guessed that Qing would not go" Yang Xi sighed softly in her heart, this knot in her heart may not be able to be untied in this life, even if she is in the palace and becomes his most favored concubine, her heart is still unspeakably hostile to the royal family of the Great Zhou Kingdom.

She's here for revenge

Every time he thought of this, Yang Xi could only sigh - he didn't understand, what kind of feelings did Chen Qingxuan have for him? She must have liked him a little, but she probably liked his face even more...... Because she has said more than once that he is very good-looking, and she thinks that he is the king of a country, but he actually needs to rely on a beautiful face to please the concubines of his harem?

"What are you sighing for?" Chen Qingxuan looked at Yang Xi shaking his head and sighing, and asked with a slight frown.
