Chapter 151: It's really shameless
After several days of heavy rain, many businesses closed early, or even closed altogether, no one wants to run out and wander around in such weather, and there are few pedestrians on the streets.
Chu Lixue sits in a clothing store, experimenting with her new invention of the sewing machine. She made this sewing machine according to her memories when she was a child, and she remembered that when she was a child, her grandmother often used a sewing machine to make flower dresses for her to wear, and she was well nurtured since she was a child.
With a sewing machine, her clothing store can make clothes faster than other stores, and the needlework is smooth, which makes more people like to come to her clothing store to buy clothes.
On this day, the three princesses came to Chu Lixue's store again, Rean Xue and Wanyue frowned slightly when they saw this, these three people had come to make trouble before, and they took away a piece of clothing for nothing, could it be that they came to cheat on clothes again this time?
As soon as Princess Xiang entered the door, she stepped forward and grabbed Chu Lixue's hand, and said with a shy face: "Qinghe, it's really thanks to your clothes, the prince has been living with me these days, and he said that he found the feeling of being young." Do you have any better clothes here? I bought as much silver as I could, and I paid for the last clothes. ”
Immediately, Princess Jin and Princess Ping also asked for the latest style of clothes, as much as you want, but there is only one request, that is, this is the only one, and what you want is this unique feeling.
Their requirements are not excessive, this is also one of the reasons why Chu Lixue's store is booming, the style of clothes is customized, the color can be selected by the guests, other families need five days to come out of the clothes, in Chu Lixue's side only one day, many people are amazed at the speed of the embroidery girl in her store.
Hearing this, Chu Lixue smiled lightly, "Several princesses are willing to come to support me, it's too late for me to be happy, since the dress last time was said to be given to a few people, where is there any reason to collect cash." Later, let the embroidery girl measure a few sizes, and then choose the ones you like, I will definitely make unique clothes for you according to your temperament. ”
Hearing Chu Lixue say this, several princesses were happy, not to mention anything else, just looking at the dress Chu Lixue was wearing, it was not something that ordinary shops could make. Moreover, they also listened to Chu Lixue's words, and they did get the results they wanted, so they naturally believed in Chu Lixue's words.
After sending off the three princesses, Chu Lixue was about to draw and make dresses for them, when a man wearing an ink-colored satin robe came to the store, and the cuffs and collar of the robe were embroidered with hibiscus flowers with silver thread. Wearing a jade belt around his waist and holding an ivory folding fan, he highlights his extraordinary temperament.
"This son, do you want to choose ready-to-wear clothes, or do you want to order them?" The little girl stepped forward with a smile.
"Customized, my son heard that Princess Chen's clothing store is famous for customizing unique clothes privately, and it is a place where many officials and wealthy families flock to it." The man said with a smile.
"Childe wants to order, let me measure the size for you first, and then choose the fabric color you like, and finally say your requirements for the clothes, and you can come to pick it up in three days." The little girl skillfully greets every customer who enters the store, regardless of men and women, whether beautiful or ugly, she can greet every customer with the most beautiful smile.
"Didn't you say that you could get your clothes in one day? Why three days? ”
"Oh, this son, we have a lot of orders, even if the embroidery girls work day and night to complete, we can't just give you defective products to wear, right? It's okay to wear clothes that match your heart and temperament, right? ”
"Hehe, I didn't expect your little girl to be trained so well, Princess Chen is really well-disciplined." The man praised without hesitation.
When everything was done, the man took out a certain gold ingot from his arms, "When it's done, send someone to send me to Caiqing Street Yue Wangfu." ”
Hearing this, Chu Lixue couldn't help but raise her eyes and glance at the man again, Yue Wangfu? Is this person from Yue Wangfu? was thinking about it, but the man said again, "I am Shen Chao, the grandson of King Yue." After finishing his words, he really walked away.
The grandson of King Yue? Chu Lixue was confused, King Yue was an old man about sixty years old, the princess died early, and his son was far away as the city lord in Cui Ying City, when did he run out of a grandson in this Cloud City? It seems that there is really a place where the dragon and the tiger are hidden in this cloud city, there are so many people that she Chu Lixue doesn't know, when she returns home at noon, she must let King Chen make up for her evil.
Back at the palace, Ye Wushuang, King Chen, and Shangguan Tianyu were all sitting in the hall chatting, looking at their faces one by one, thinking that they must have encountered some trouble.
"Look at your stinky faces one by one, are you in trouble?" Chu Lixue walked to the table and sat down, carried the teapot, poured a cup of tea for herself, and drank it slowly.
"When I went down to the court today, Zuo Xiang Shen Bin handed me a handwritten letter from King Lao Yue, which mentioned ......" Before King Chen finished speaking, Chu Lixue interjected: "Wait, you said Zuo Prime Minister Shen Bin?" Who is he from the King of Lao Yue? Why didn't King Yue send someone to find you if he had something, why did he want to find Zuo Xiang? ”
Didn't the man who went to her shop to order clothes today say that he was the grandson of King Yue? Since there is a grandson, why don't you ask your grandson for help in such a thing, but find an outsider.
Just thinking about it, King Chen continued: "Shen Bin is the grandson of King Yue, if he doesn't give the letter to his grandson, how can he rest assured that he will hand it over to others? ”
"No, isn't King Yue's grandson named Shen Yue? He went to my shop today to order clothes. Chu Lixue said hurriedly.
Why did she get more confused the more she listened, Zuo Xiang Shen Bin is also the grandson of King Yue, so the man who went to her shop is also the grandson of King Yue, if there is a letter handed over to King Chen, it seems that it is more convenient to let Shen Bin hand it over on his behalf, but it will inevitably be seen, if it is given to Shen Yue, it will be different, there is a clothing store, and there are not many customers today, wouldn't it be better if the letter was handed over to Princess Chen? Why do you have to let Shen Bin hand it over in a place of right and wrong like the palace? Could it be that this old Yue Wang is confused.
King Chen saw the doubts in Chu Lixue's heart, and it was no wonder that he never told Chu Lixue about the affairs of the court, not because he was worried that she knew too much, but because he didn't want her to be too tired.
"Lixue, King Yue is a hero who fought the country with Emperor Taizu, King Yue is throne can be hereditary, but it can only be the death of King Lao Yue or the King of Lao Yue will give up the throne, and there must not be two King Yue in the dynasty at the same time. King Lao Yue was no longer in the court before my father's death, and his grandson Shen Bin, who was brought up by his hand, was the champion of civil and military affairs that year. ”
"Hmph, I don't have a good job, otherwise, how can he tamper with the edict by the Bai family, and let that Nangong build a bronze bird platform comfortably." Chu Lixue pouted.
"You have wronged Zuo Xiang, when it happened, Zuo Xiang was not in Beichen Kingdom, but led troops to attack Qiongyue Kingdom, and when he came back, the matter was already a foregone conclusion, and I didn't want to let the people fall into dire straits because of a throne, in fact, if Nangong Anyi can be a good emperor, it doesn't matter if the throne is given to him, it is always a member of the Nangong family." King Chen said softly.
"What about Shen Chao? Is it also an official in the court? ”
"Shen Chao is the son of Mrs. Xuxian of Shen City, the lord of Shen City, and he is also the grandson of King Lao Yue, but this grandson has not been around since he was a child, so he naturally does not like King Lao Yue, and he came to Cloud City this time for the throne." King Chen said in a deep voice.
I see, Shen Bin? Chu Lixue had heard of this Zuo Xiang, his wife seemed to be the daughter of the political secretary, this woman had the same pitiful background as Shen Bin, she was a person whose mother died early, and her father had to rely on her own efforts.
Thinking about it like this, Chu Lixue was very disgusted with Shen Yue, not to mention robbing other people's father's favor, and now she has to come to snatch someone else's throne, could it be that all the good things in the world are taken up by him alone?
"So is that Shen Yue very advantageous?" Chu Lixue continued to ask. She must smooth out these relationships to know whether to watch the show or help someone.
This time, Shangguan Tianyu said, "Shen Bin's mother was the daughter of the original Yipin Taifu, and she was a family affair told by the old Yue King, who knew that Shen Bin's mother died of dystocia and hemorrhage, but Shen Bin's father asked the emperor for a transfer to Cui Yingcheng at this time, and after the old lady found out, he regretted that he married his daughter to a ruthless man, and died soon after." Since then, the old Yue King has lived with Shen Bin alone, and Shen Bin's achievements today are the result of the careful cultivation of the Lao Yue King in addition to his own efforts. ”
"That means that Shen Bin's father married his current wife, Shen Yue's mother, not long after he applied for a transfer to Cui Studios?"
"Yes, Shen Yue's mother is Ruan Yuehong, the daughter of the Ruan family, the largest local businessman, when the king of Lao Yue learned about it, he angrily cut off contact with the city lord of Shen, and now the king of Lao Yue is old, and the official position of the city lord of Shen is not as high as his son, they are all worried that the king of Lao Yue will pass the throne to Shen Bin, no, they sent Shen Yue to Yuncheng first." Shangguan Tianyu said lightly.
"It's really shameless, when a son never does his filial piety, when he is a father, he has never given anyone a little fatherly love, and now he will come back to grab the throne, I have really seen shameless, I have never seen such shameless." Chu Lixue said indignantly. It was as if this had happened to her.
"So, King Lao Yue wants to ask us to help think of a way to give up the throne to Shen Bin." King Chen said softly.
He knew that this wife of his was extremely intelligent and jealous, and if she made up her mind to help one person, then the other side would suffer.
