050 Xuanji's new clothes
Mother Zhang smiled indifferently: "The prince is twenty years younger than me, I have seen him since I was a child, I know how he is temperamental, for ordinary women, the prince is indeed a first-class son-in-law, but not necessarily for you." ”
Xuanji felt that she had found the light of the revolution in the darkness, and she was so excited that she grabbed Zhang's mother's hand and couldn't speak.
"It is inevitable for the prince to have three wives and four concubines, you seem to be casual and gentle, but in fact your heart is extremely high, where can you stand the rules and dogmas in the house, where will you be willing to work with others?"
I have to say that Mama Zhang's identity is old, and she can say such things, she is definitely a maverick pioneer in this era, and she is Xuanji's second confidant here.
After sending Zhang's mother away, Ke'er brought the seamstress of the No. 1 Silk Village in the capital to see Xuanji, saying that the prince had ordered her to prepare a few formal dresses for Xuanji. The tailor measured Xuanji's back, respectfully said goodbye and left, saying that the clothes could be delivered tomorrow afternoon.
Xuanji was very strange and asked Ke'er, "Why do you suddenly want to make clothes for me?" ”
Ke'er's eyes shrank, and she shook her head to indicate that she didn't know. Xuanji didn't bother to pay attention to it.
The next night, Xuanji returned to Tingsongju, the clothes had been delivered, Ke'er didn't dare to open them without permission, and Xuanji was also a little curious about what Zhao Jianshen's so-called formal dress looked like.
Open the box, it is filled with a purple dress, such a gorgeous and charming purple material, Xuanji only saw Zhao Jianshen wear it, this era of dyeing technology is relatively backward, naturally not like modern as any color you want, but even Xuanji, a person who has seen any color in his previous life, has to admit that this purple is dyed extremely beautiful, and it is rare in modern times, the most surprising thing is that there is a piece of fluorescent fluorescence above the purple, which seems to be a faint gold under the lamp, and it is very luxurious.
Ke'er looked at the dress, her eyes lit up with envy, and she admired it vigorously.
I also know that this dress is not cheap, although Xuanji doesn't particularly like purple, and can't help but like it at first sight, but it is a bit too ambiguous to receive a valuable dress as a gift for no reason, or a man to give it.
The material of this dress is excellent, but the style is relatively simple, just a simple lace embroidered with pale gold silk thread at the corners, and it takes a day to make something too complicated, so it is just right, otherwise Xuanji will not dare to wear it out.
The person who delivered the clothes said that the clothes had been washed and ironed, but he didn't know what fragrance the young lady liked, so he didn't smoke the incense. What kind of incense does the young lady want, Ke'er will prepare. Kerr said.
"Well, no, I don't know what aroma smells good, and smoking it may affect the color of the clothes, so forget it." Who knows if there will be any chemical reaction between incense and clothing? Xuanji handed the clothes to Kerr to put away.
Ke'er responded, secretly happy in her heart: "Miss will attend the prince's Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet tomorrow night, just in time to wear this dress, she will definitely steal the limelight!" The prince was really thoughtful. Thinking that his young lady could show her face in front of the ladies of the palace, it was difficult to suppress her pride...... It's a pity that Mr. Zhang can't tell Miss in advance when he tells him.
So the next night, when Ke'er said that she wanted Xuanji to wear that dress and go to the inner courtyard to attend the royal family banquet, Xuanji was so surprised that she didn't want to pay attention to it. But seeing that Ke'er looked like she was about to cry if she refused to go, Xuanji didn't want her to be embarrassed, so she had to change her clothes and comb her hair.
As soon as Ke'er heard that Xuanji was willing to go, she immediately changed her face and put on a happy flattering appearance, and she had to serve Xuanji with her hands to make up. Xuanji secretly sighed helplessly, except for Zhang's mother, everyone around her wanted to push herself to Zhao Jianshen's side, but she didn't know that the more she was like this, the more disgusted she became.
After dressing up a little, Xuanji, with that purple dress, can be overwhelming from a distance.
When Gonggong Hong, the eunuch who was waiting in front of Tingsongju's door early, saw Xuanji, he couldn't help but be stunned for a while before bowing down and saying, "Thank you, the prince ordered the servants to pick you up in the inner courtyard to attend the family banquet, and ask the steward to get into the sedan chair." ”
Xuanji looked at his clothes, which was similar to the eunuch she had seen beside the princess before, and then listened to his shrill voice, she naturally knew his identity, and when she heard the phrase "slave", she still couldn't help frowning.
"Is the place where the feast is held?" Looking at the exquisite sedan chair carried by the four people in front of her, Xuanji still couldn't accept this kind of so-called master treatment carried by people.
Gonggong Hong didn't expect Xuanji to ask this, and replied: "It's about half a pillar of incense away, and the family banquet is held in Qiushui Pavilion, not far from the front door of the inner courtyard." ”
Xuanji breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then let's walk over slowly." It's just appetizing, so you can eat more later. ”
Grandpa Hong was stunned, what is the situation? Xuanji smiled and walked away.
Father-in-law Hong hurriedly followed, waving his hand to let the sedan chair man carry the sedan chair and follow behind. Xuanji saw it and stopped: "If you have nothing to do, go back for the holiday, you don't have to come with you." ”
Several sedan chair drivers stood there and looked at each other, Hong Gonggong thought that the prince valued this woman very much, and it was better to follow her, so he nodded to the sedan chair drivers, and the four of them immediately lifted the sedan chair and withdrew.
Along the way, Gonggong Hong respectfully landed one step behind Xuanji to follow, and every time he reached a fork in the road, he bowed down and carefully guided the first two steps, so twice, Xuanji couldn't help laughing, stopped at the intersection and said to Hong Gonggong: "Don't be so polite, look at you before and after, I'm tired for you." ”
Hong Gonggong didn't even dare to say it. Xuanji was not in a hurry, she simply stood in place and chatted: "You should know that my name is Xie Xuanji, what is your name?" ”
"The minion's surname is Hong, and his name is Wang." Gonggong Hong smiled bitterly, this name has not been used for I don't know how long, if it wasn't for being asked, even he would have forgotten it.
"Hongwang, red and prosperous, so colorful. Hong Wang, how old are you? When did you arrive at the palace? Xuanji didn't move a single step, and Gonggong Hong was secretly anxious.
"The slave is twenty-eight this year, and it has only been three years since he entered the palace." Looking up, Xuanji's eyes were full of slyness, and he continued to ask. Finally surrendered: "The slave is rude." ”
After speaking, he obediently walked in front of Xuanji to lead the way, and heard a crisp laugh from behind: "Hong Wang, we don't have to talk nonsense if you listened to me earlier." ”
Hong Wang smiled bitterly: "Steward Xie said it was funny." ”
The people in the Qiushui Pavilion have arrived early, the princess is not there, there are no male relatives in the palace, Zhao Jianshen and Zhao Siyuan are sitting in the first seat, and the big and small beauties on both sides are dizzying.
With the arrival of Xuanji, the hall where the warblers were singing and swallowing was so quiet that it was audible for a while, and it was really not a pleasant thing to be stared at by a large number of beauties with strange eyes.
