Chapter 147: Mid-Autumn Festival wants to enter the palace
I didn't expect Xiao Ruyu to come, and the prince was eating under the service of Concubine Chen. When Han Mo came to tell the news that Miss Xiao was coming. Shizi was obviously stunned for a moment, and a chopstick fell on the table, he didn't bother to tell the servants to clean up here, but directly shouted to change clothes and go to the study.
"Shizi. Wait a minute. Concubine Chen gently wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, "Miss Xiao shouldn't have eaten at this time, or the concubine will let someone cook some good food and dishes, and invite her to eat some together." "Concubine Chen said very reasonably, and the prince was a little tempted. Since coming back, Xiao Ruyu hasn't had a meal with him.
"Alright then, you go and tell me to make the kitchen more elaborate, and make the best ones. Siyu likes to eat light food, let them put less oil. ”
Concubine Chen went to the kitchen with her usual face, and the prince ordered to remove all the dishes in front of her and serve some delicate and delicious snacks first.
Soon Xiao Ruyu was invited into the restaurant, and she wondered why Shizi didn't come into the study to entertain her, so she was going to invite her to breakfast.
Speaking of breakfast, she was really hungry. When I came out of the General's Mansion today, I only drank a small half bowl of purple rice porridge, and now I see so many delicate snacks, and the gluttonous worms in my stomach are hooked out.
"Let's have a bite to eat." Shizi smiled at her, and Han Mo moved a chair and asked her to sit down.
"It's not quite right." She's a woman who hasn't left the cabinet and a big man to sit and eat together, and she seems to be a little unruly.
"No outsiders, sit down." Shizi said flatly, "I have already instructed the kitchen to add a few dishes, and we will talk while eating in a while." "I want to eat while working, it's okay, my sister has done so much work for you, and you should eat it. Xiao Ruyu immediately thought about it and sat down calmly.
By the time Concubine Chen commanded the people in the kitchen to deliver the food, Xiao Ruyu had already eaten several pieces of delicate dim sum. The taste is good, sweet and soft and palatable, with a tea fragrance.
"Shizi." Concubine Chen gave a gift, saw Xiao Ruyu eating snacks and got up with a smile and said: "It seems that Miss Xiao likes the snacks made by the concubine very much, thank you for not giving up, when you leave, the concubine will bring you some." The tone is natural and kind, and the smile is meek and happy, without pretentiousness.
Xiao Ruyu still had some snacks in her mouth, and when she said it, she almost choked on some of the feelings that she couldn't get up or down. "Cough, cough," took a sip of the tea handed over by Han Mo before he steadied himself and said, "It turns out that such a delicious snack was actually made by Mrs., it is really presumptuous, I don't know if Mrs. is a ...... of the house?" "Xiao Ruyu has never seen a woman in the world, seeing that she is combing the hairstyle of a married lady, it should be right to call Mrs.
"This is Concubine Chen in my house." Shizi lowered his eyes and said on the side, he glared at Han Mo secretly, why did he forget to let Concubine Chen go back, now it's okay, the two women have met, it's so embarrassing.
"Xianya, this is Miss Xiao." Nothing else has been explained, the relationship between the British Palace's Mansion and the General's Mansion is a secret, if it weren't for Xiao Ruyu's sudden coming over this morning, and Han Mo forgetting to avoid Concubine Chen, he wouldn't let Concubine Chen know about Xiao Ruyu. However, with Concubine Chen's cleverness, she knows what to say and what not to say.
Both of them smiled and nodded, because Concubine Chen was the side concubine of the prince, her status was noble, there was no need to salute a girl, Xiao Ruyu got up to salute, in fact, she didn't want to stand up, but her identity was there. No way, salute. It's just a little troublesome, and it won't be missing a piece of meat.
Of course, Shizi couldn't hear Xiao Ruyu's slander, but he was still very happy to see that the two women got along quite well.
"The prince is really blessed." After Concubine Chen went out, Xiao Ruyu joked with a smile. The concubine Chen just now is very dignified and beautiful, elegant and generous in action, gentle and polite in speech, and well-behaved.
Shizi smiled and didn't answer, don't say more, Shizi reminded himself that he must be careful in the future, don't let Siyu see other concubines, I believe that if Ruyu sees them, he will definitely not be so calm and calm.
"Concubine Fang, what's wrong with you?" Concubine Chen returned to her courtyard and sat there distracted, Yahuan Chunnong asked softly with a worried face.
"Nothing? It's just to see a beautiful girl. Concubine Chen smiled sideways. is indeed a beautiful girl, with a beautiful appearance, a gentle and elegant temperament, and a degree of action, maybe her appearance is not as beautiful as the original concubine, but for some reason, this girl gives her a much greater threat than the concubine. In particular, Shiko's attitude towards her made her very worried.
Shizi is not only considerate to her words, but also spoiled in tone, but also gentle and meticulous in the subtleties, it seems that Shizi is moved by his true feelings. She was a little afraid, afraid that the son of the world would change his mind because of this girl, and that her future would be changed because of this girl.
Concubine Chen held a handkerchief in her hand vigorously, and she didn't come back to her senses for a long time. She can't change anything about the affairs of the son, so for this Xiao girl, can she move her feelings and reason and force her to back down. But what reason does she have to ask others to back down, and the prince will not be annoyed with her if he knows? She thought about it a lot, but in the end she could only sigh deeply, the future was beyond her control, she could only wait and see what happened, betting on the world's unbearable heart, betting on the girl's ruthlessness.
Xiao Ruyu didn't take Concubine Chen's affairs to heart, she told Shizi about the immortal drunkenness while eating, Shizi realized the seriousness of the problem, and immediately ordered Han Mo to strengthen the manpower in all aspects, and the secret posts they set up at various key intersections should also pay more attention to this aspect of the situation.
Although limited by the current situation and vision, the long-term vision of the prince is no worse than Xiao Ruyu. He was well aware of the terrible consequences of immortal drunkenness, and vowed to spare no effort to destroy them all. The person who spreads the immortal drunkenness cannot let go of any of them.
After Xiao Ruyu returned home, he received a not-so-wonderful news that the emperor had decreed that General Xiao would take Xiao Ruyu into the palace on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Xiao Ruyu didn't want to go, she had seen a lot of it before, it seemed that something bad would happen when she entered the palace, either this stumbled on that or she found some unsightly secret, or she offended the princess and the princess, and the others were in constant trouble, etc., anyway, it would be no good to enter the palace.
Han Yixuan will definitely enter the palace that night, although the men's and women's feasts are separated, there is no guarantee that it will happen. If you really run into it, wouldn't you go through it? She now thinks that it is good to use Ming Chun's identity to contact him, and the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, and it will not hurt or hurt.
considered whether to pretend to be sick and avoid entering the palace, but after thinking about it for a long time, she still dismissed this idea. She Xiao Ruyu is not a person who is afraid of things, let alone a person who hides in a turtle shell and does not dare to show her head when she encounters danger.
Now that the tentacles of the immortal drunk have spread to all parts of the capital, she wants to go into the palace to see if there is such a thing in the palace, and she also wants to see what the legendary emperor looks like, except for seeing the emperor in the TV series, she has not seen a living real person.
Knowing that Xiao Ruyu was going to enter the palace, the prince asked him to send a few exquisite costumes produced by the Yunxian Xiufang in the capital and a few sets of jewelry produced by Duobao Pavilion. Xiao Ruyu of Yunxian Xiufang has heard that it is said that their embroidery girls are carefully selected, not girls, not beauty, not ingenuity, and stricter than the palace draft.
Their pavilion master is called Unzen, and I heard that he is a person who is as beautiful as a fairy. No one has ever seen her true face, but as long as she makes an embroidery, it must be the best of the best, worth a thousand gold.
Xiao Ruyu is not too interested in this Yunxian Xiufang, she is good at embroidery because of the original owner, but she is more interested in moving the needle and the knife, since she regained her old business, this embroidery needle was thrown away by her.
Thinking about how she helped a few girls embroider wedding dresses and helped Han Yixuan make a few clothes, the former ace doctor would pick up embroidery needles to help people embroider clothes, how did it feel like a dream.
What kind of mood did she use to help Han Yixuan make clothes at that time? Now she has never dared to think about it, for fear that the stupid woman at that time would suddenly get on her body and impulsively pick up the embroidery needle again. But this time I didn't want to embroider, I wanted to kill someone.
Let Cai Wei put the clothes sent by the prince on the table and spread them out, she wanted to see what kind of ingenious craftsmanship was so sought after.
The fine moonlight brocade is embroidered with a complex of exquisite flowers, which are carefully embroidered with three-dimensional embroidery, and the color matching is beautiful, and the flowers seem to be alive and ready to come out.
The cuffs and neckline of the garment are embroidered with delicate and auspicious moire, and the embroidery thread is mixed with gold and silver thread, making the pattern more luxurious and elegant.
Xiao Ruyu looked at the clothes in front of her and showed a clear smile, I said, what kind of embroidery techniques can be so admired, I originally learned from my sister, but unfortunately I didn't pay the tuition. This embroiderer must have seen my embroidery and was inspired and improved, otherwise it would not have been possible to do it so delicately with the current embroidery methods.
"Master, this dress is so beautiful, you can see that the embroidered flowers are the same as the real ones, it is really beautiful." Cai Wei was dazzled by the various clothes and patterns in front of her, and she didn't know which one to look at for a while.
"Looks good, right?" Xiao Ruyu asked her with a smile, seeing that she nodded vigorously and glared at her, "Be more restrained, don't act like you haven't seen the world." I'm ashamed of my master. ”
"Master, people have really never seen such beautiful clothes and such exquisite embroiderers." Cai Wei pouted and stroked the textures, "Even Mama Chen can't embroider such beautiful flowers." ”
"Okay, as long as you talk a lot, let's see which one you like, and pick it up." Xiao Ruyu waved her hand generously.
Cai Wei looked at her with a look of surprise, "Master, you're not joking with the slave, the slave will take it seriously." ”
"Virtue, when the master doesn't talk too much, quickly choose one you like, and help me put the others away." Xiao Ruyu looked at her funny, smacking everywhere with a look of money, and couldn't help but shake her head. I feel that Cai Wei is led astray by herself, she likes to collect gold and silver jewelry, and Cai Wei likes to collect beautiful clothes. Indeed, there is a master, and there must be a servant.
