Chapter 124: Unexpected Exam Questions

The agency that runs and presides over the Embroidery Tribute Society is the Imperial Family's Shangyi Bureau.

In the sound of gongs and drums, Liu Gonggong, the palm print eunuch of the Shangyi Bureau, led a group of eunuchs and palace maids to the center of the main stage, and all kinds of discussions around stopped abruptly, and they all looked at Gonggong Liu intently.

Gonggong Liu coughed lightly twice, first read out the queen's decree, then a lengthy and cumbersome statement about the origin and achievements of the Embroidery Tribute Society, and finally a rule of this Embroidery Tribute Meeting.

After a long quarter of an hour, Gonggong Liu finally stopped his voice, he raised his small eyes and looked around the various embroidery workshops in the audience, and said, "The theme of this year's embroidery tribute meeting is ......"

Everyone in the audience pricked up their ears, for fear of missing a word.

"Please ask the participating embroidery workshop to cut a women's cloak, and the material is to use the congealed Huai brocade provided by the Embroidery Tribute Association. Time requires one hour to be cut, one hour to sew, and two hours to embroider. The competition officially began half an hour later. ”

Gonggong Liu cleared his throat and looked at everyone in the audience again, "If you have any questions about the participating embroidery workshops, please raise them as soon as possible." If there is no problem, please enter the embroidery area of each embroidery workshop to prepare. ”

"Cloak?"

"How can it be a cape?"

"You even used a cloak as an exam question?"

"W-This is so weird!"

Before Liu Gonggong's voice fell, the embroidery workshops resounded one after another, and they were confused about this year's exam questions.

"In previous years, the theme was mainly all kinds of long skirts, such as white pleated skirts, moon skirts, phoenix tail skirts, flower skirts, etc.," said an embroidery workshop owner, "There have been shirts and placket jackets, but this cloak ...... It's really the first time that it has been the theme of the Embroidery Tribute Meeting, and it's really rare. ”

"Isn't that it?"

The director of the embroidery workshop next door spread his hands, "You said that this cloak has the same style, how can it be compared in terms of style design?" It's better to change it into a gown, this cloak, this cloak ......," he shook his head and sighed.

The competition is divided into three stages, namely cutting, sewing and embroidery.

Among them, cutting and sewing, in addition to testing the skill, pay more attention to the design of the style, the ingenious and eye-catching style often gets a higher score, so the comparison test is a very important part.

There are many embroidery workshops that are known for their styles, so they can't help but complain about the theme of this year's embroidery tribute meeting.

The owner of the embroidery workshop, who was anxious, couldn't help but put forward his opinion, "Father-in-law Liu, this cloak is not very difficult in terms of style design, and the embroidery tribute meeting has never had such a simple theme, could it be a mistake?" ”

Isn't that too simple?

The vast majority of embroidery workshop owners nodded secretly, the competition without difficulty is not a good thing for them, and it is not difficult to highlight the level of each embroidery workshop?

Gonggong Liu snorted lightly, put his hands behind his back, raised his head, and glanced at the owner of the embroidery workshop who asked the question, "Today's theme is formulated by Shuguifei Niangniang herself, and has been approved by the Queen Mother and the Queen. ”

There was a sudden silence.

Gonggong Liu was quite satisfied with his deterrent, glanced at the various embroidery workshops in the audience, and said with a smile, "Since there is no problem, let's discuss and prepare for it, and it will officially start in half an hour!" ”

The chief lady in charge of the costume style design of Yingyue Building is Qin Niangzi, and Ouyang gave priority to asking her opinion, "Qin Niangzi, are you sure about the theme of this competition?" ”

Qin Niangzi didn't reply immediately, she glanced at Xue Shi who was stretching her neck on the seat next to her, and said in a low voice, "Madam, I have confidence." ”

"I want to hear about it." Ouyang's worries are not much different from the owners of other embroidery workshops, she really didn't expect that Concubine Shu would be able to do this for the sake of Yulanfang.

The advantage of Magnolia Fang is in the embroidery art, and the combination of condensation and Huai brocade and condensation of green embroidery is indeed a rare embroidery workshop that can match it.

However, there is nothing outstanding in the style, most of them use the common style on the market, or follow the trend, and there is no school of its own.

Now Concubine Shu has personally decided to use the cloak as the theme, which is to make up for the shortcomings of Magnolia Fang for him, which is really well-intentioned.

Jiang Shuli didn't seem to understand these ways, but he understood Xue Shi's disgusting appearance with long ears that wanted to eavesdrop.

So, he took out a set of array flags from the storage bag and laid them down.

Clapped his hands and said, "Qin Niangzi, now you can rest assured that no one can hear our voice except for the people sitting at our seats in Yingyue Tower!" ”

Everyone looked at Jiang Shuli's playful appearance and couldn't help laughing.

Qin Niangzi put her mind at ease, and opened her mouth to express her thoughts one by one, "It is indeed difficult to innovate in the style design of the cloak, but the requirements for the style in the middle are actually higher and more difficult. ”

Her opinion aroused everyone's curiosity, and they all asked how to come up with the theory.

"It's not difficult to design a cloak," Qin Niangzi told her thoughts, "but how to design a seemingly simple cloak to be elegant and dusty, how many pieces of fabric to use, and how to splice and cut, are all particular." ”

Seeing that everyone suddenly bowed, she continued, "In addition, in the design of the bow tie, jewelry is usually used as the button, but we can try to use a special knot as the button, maybe it will be interesting." ”

"What is a special knot?" Ouyang asked with interest.

"For example, an orchid, a peony," the placket of the cloak has always been beautiful with the sparkle and preciousness of jewelry, Qin Niangzi's idea is indeed refreshing, she smiled, "Specially cut a special knot as a placket button, with our embroidery method, it should have a good effect." ”

"Qin Niangzi," Mei Niang stood next to her and never spoke, and at this moment she opened her mouth and directly asked, "Can you cut out a branch of cold plum as a button?" I embroidered the cloak with cold plums as the mainstay, echoing up and down, which must be extraordinary. ”

"A cold plum?"

Qin Niangzi's eyes lit up, and she nodded, "Layue Hanmei, we use a Hanmei as a button, and then use a ruby as an embellishment." ”

"How about a white fox fur sewn on the collar?"

Ouyang's interest came and he paid attention, "Stepping on the snow and cold plum cloak, the artistic conception should be good." ”

The plan for the competition was formulated, and the ladies began to discuss the details everywhere, and Ouyang nodded with satisfaction, she had always been very confident in the embroidery team of Yingyue Building.

And the embroidery workshops are also discussing countermeasures, there is no advantage in style design, can only focus on embroidery, for a while the bosses are on the embroidery girl's ear, must press the bottom of the embroidery work to take out, fight!

The most proud is the Magnolia Fang, Xue Shi didn't want his idea of giving Concubine Shu Guifei a few days ago was really adopted, and now the first-class lady of Yingyue Building has also been successfully put down by him, this God is partial to help them Yulanfang, it's hard not to take the first back!
