Xu Jinrou entered the palace with five moonflower feathers and clouds, four were brought out by Chen Qingqing in the past few days, and one was originally used as a sample.

What was presented to the queen in Tianshou Palace was the agreed four cloud brocades, which used four different patterns.

The queen's mood was completely unaffected by the previous events, her demeanor was calm and gentle, and her eyebrows not only lacked the previous gloom, but also a little warm,

Gently caressing the cloud brocade in the black lacquered ebony box with her fingertips, the queen's eyes flashed,

"Morning for the brocade clouds, morning for the Qixia" this month Huayun brocade, but it is as beautiful as the clouds in the sky, I didn't expect that your brocade factory is just the beginning of the construction to be able to weave such exquisite products, which really amazes the mourners. ”

Xu Jinrou lowered her eyebrows and pleasing her eyes, "If you can get the approval of the queen mother, you can only dare to give it to Concubine Rong of Naximan as a birthday gift after making the ready-to-wear clothes, otherwise it will not damage your face." ”

"This cloud brocade looks colorful and solemn, gorgeous and pleasing to the eye, can be called elegant and rich, rich and brilliant, the mourning family has seen many cloud brocade like stars, but the brocade you sent these horses can be described as the best, it is really unexpected by the mourning family, although the Xiban also produces brocade cloth, but there is absolutely no such cloud brocade craftsmanship."

"The best Yunjin craftsmen in the world are all in my Dachu, and most of them are women, and the concubines think that it is difficult for Xiban to have this skill."

"There are four Yunjin horses, which two do Jin Rou think is the most suitable to use to make clothes for Concubine Rong?"

The four horses of cloud brocade were packed in four sandalwood boxes, and Xu Jinrou took out a horse of cloud brocade from a wooden box marked with the word "Shang".

"Look, this is a longevity peach pattern auspicious cloud brocade.

The pattern is composed of the word "〓" and the word "longevity", supplemented by the peach pattern, and the word "〓" means "good luck", which coincides with "longevity", which means longevity. ”

The queen bowed her head slightly after looking at it, "Well..., this is a conventional pattern, decent, although it is not amazing, but it is appropriate for the occasion." ”

Xu Jinrou took out another cloud brocade from the sandalwood box marked with the word "pole".

"The queen mother, please look at this one, the cloud crane pattern lotus mandarin duck brocade",

The pattern is the winged cloud crane, supplemented by blue, green and yellow ruyi clouds, with a lotus mandarin duck peony picture, the crane is a longevity bird, the mandarin duck is male and female, and the husband and wife are in love; The lotus flower is out of the sludge and is not stained, innocent and pure. ”

"Concubine Rong Niangniang is in the Xiban harem, under the queen, this cloud brocade not only wishes her birthday, but also wishes her proud harem, outstanding, and the Xiban Son of Heaven double stay, it can be said that its meaning is far-reaching, but it is hidden but not obvious, it is the pattern appearance of the concubine after thinking hard."

The queen was overjoyed, "Well..., okay, this pattern is continuous in all directions, eight-sided chapters, there are flowers in the brocade, and there are brocades in the flowers. ”

Xu Jinrou was overjoyed, "If you can get the approval of the queen mother, the concubine's hard work is worth it." ”

Xu Jinrou took out the third cloud brocade from the wooden box marked with the word "Zun".

"Queen Mother, this is a peony moire makeup brocade specially woven for you"

"Take the peony as the pattern, the moire is continuous in all directions, each into a flower, it must be synthesized with four flower heads and branches and leaves, the color halo is superimposed layer by layer, the pattern is rich and vigorous, there is stillness in the movement, and the wealth is pressing."

The queen picked up Yunjin and looked through it carefully, "Jinrou, you really have a heart, and you will not be in vain to mourn the important task entrusted to you." ”

Xu Jinrou saluted, "Thank you for your mother's praise." ”

"If you're pregnant, don't be polite."

Xu Jinrou took out the fourth cloud brocade from the wooden box marked with "expensive" clothes,

"Queen Mother, this is the Yunjin you want to give to Imperial Doctor Jiang, named Fuyun Bihai Makeup Yunjin."

This brocade is woven into a corrugated yarn bottom with sea blue warp and weft, and a floating cloud pattern with sky blue, with Xuan, dark green, orange, yellow, white, gray, brown seven-color threads and round gold and round silver threads woven into plain weave colors.

The pattern is all woven with digging and weaving, the color is bright and elegant, delicate and embossed. ”

"Imperial Doctor Jiang is already a talent, and wearing this Yunjin ready-to-wear garment will definitely be even more dignified."

The corners of the queen's lips curled and gradually turned into a thick smile.

"Jin Rou really has a heart, it's just a casual act of mourning the family, and it takes so much effort, it's hard for you."

"The will of the queen mother is very important in the hearts of the concubines, and they should do their best."

"The mourning family knows your filial piety, and sometimes the mourning family lets you do something embarrassing, after all, the young and strong men of my Dachu have all moved away to Xiban, and they can only appoint women to take on heavy responsibilities, so you have to work hard."

"The concubine understands the mother's intentions, and it is the concubine's responsibility to share the worries of the queen, and the concubine has never been unwilling."

"That's good, these cloud brocades you sent today are very suitable for the mourning family, but the mourning family also has a pattern here, and you will order the brocade factory to weave a horse according to this pattern, but there is no hurry, just make it before the end of the year."

Mama Li walked over and handed it to Xu Jinrou with a pattern.

This is a pleated long skirt pattern, inlaid with peach-colored dark flower yarn, four groups of pleats, each group of five inter-pleats, and the dark flowers are entwined chrysanthemums and camellia patterns.

Looking carefully, Xu Jinrou was suddenly shocked, there was a Wolong in the front and back of the skirt and skirt, nine dragons, and camellias, chrysanthemums, lotuses, plum blossoms, and seawater river cliffs, a total of five kinds of ornamentation.

The pattern of the queen's dress has always been a phoenix, and there has never been a dragon pattern, unless it is the clothes of the Son of Heaven.

What does this mean, Queen? Xu Jinrou's expression remained unchanged, but her heart fluctuated.

Could it be that the queen has the intention of being the emperor, and this move is just to test her mind?

Although the queen is now in the house of Da Chu, the queen is the queen after all, she still has scruples in exercising power, and she has concerns about preventing everyone's mouth.

If he is called the emperor, he will have no scruples, and the Western Barbarians will not let the Great Chu have a male emperor, but it is not clear that there can be no female emperor.

If this female son of heaven only does women's things, it will not affect Xiban's control of Da Chu, it should not be impossible, and it will also break the idea of the Song family to take charge of Da Chu in the future, it is indeed possible to give Empress Xiang an opportunity.

Xu Jinrou's expression was not panicked, the clouds were light and the wind was light,

"Well..., although this pattern is complicated, but it is not impossible, the concubine will leave the palace tomorrow and send the pattern to the brocade factory to let the weavers work as soon as possible."

The queen's eyes flashed over Xu Jinrou's face, "Oh, don't worry, Jinrou, you can look at one more thing." ”

Soon Mama Li brought a rosewood box carved with a golden dragon, and the queen opened the wooden box and carefully took out a cloud brocade from it.

"Jinrou, look at this style of brocade cloth again, can your brocade factory make it?"

Xu Jinrou's heart shook when she saw this Yun Jin, and it was difficult to hide the uneasiness and excitement in her heart after taking over Yun Jin.

"Queen Mother, this... This is the golden peacock golden dragon cloud brocade, which is the cloud brocade used to make dragon robes. ”

The queen's face was gentle, "I didn't expect Jinrou to be so good at Yunjin, and she knew what it was at a glance." ”

"After returning to her mother, there is a brocade character in the name of the concubine, so she likes Yunjin since she was a child, and then likes to read some related classics, so she still knows some rare clothes."

"Then Jin Rou, do you know what is ingenious about this cloud brocade?"

Xu Jinrou was very careful to hold this cloud brocade with both hands,

"This brocade is inlaid with gold and silver, inch brocade inch gold, it is a cloud brocade used only for the Son of Heaven to make dragon robes, the process required is complicated, it is a rare treasure, there are very few people who can weave this cloud brocade in my Dachu, and now they have either passed away or gone to the West Barbarian."

"This cloud brocade yarn is thin, change the direction, and the peacock feather line in the cloud brocade will show different colors."

"Therefore, this golden dragon cloud brocade can show the sense of relief, looking at it from afar, the dragon pattern is golden and green, as if floating and flipping in the ten thousand rays of light that is curling in the ruiqi, lifelike, amazing."

This brocade is also embroidered with the sun and the moon, which will be presented on the shoulders of the dragon robe, which can show the extraordinary spirit of the Son of Heaven carrying the sun and the moon on his shoulders.

"Well...... Jinrou is really a person who understands the mystery of this Yunjin, so the mourning family is relieved."

"Mourning family..., if you want a cloud brocade like this, I wonder if your brocade factory in Cuiping Mountain can weave it?"

Xu Jinrou was a little hesitant with her expression, "As far as the concubine knows, this cloud brocade needs to be interwoven with real gold threads and silk threads wrapped in peacock feathers, and there are a total of seventeen dragons on this brocade robe, and the gold threads and feather threads are difficult to make." ”

The queen's eyes were deep, "The mourning family knows that it is indeed not easy to make this real gold thread, and the first thing is to make gold nuggets into gold leaf." ”

"The two sit opposite each other, take turns lifting the hammer to smash down, after tens of thousands of hammers, a piece of heavy gold can become a gold leaf as light as a feather, and then the gold leaf is pressed and polished, and finally cut into strips, peel out the gold thread, and then entangle with the silk, twisting and rubbing can finally become a real gold thread."

Xu Jinrou's eyes showed admiration, "It turns out that the queen mother is also proficient in this way. ”

The queen shook her head, "It's not that the mourning family knows the mystery, but I heard the craftsmen in the palace mention it." ”

"The concubine really can't give you an answer immediately on this matter, and she needs to go back to the brocade factory to discuss with the weaver there before she dares to reply to the queen mother."

"Okay, don't worry, the mourning family is waiting for your news."

"The queen mother made this golden dragon cloud brocade because she wanted to make the dragon robe of the Son of Heaven?"

"Mourning... There is a use for mourning, and then you will know. ”

"Yes, the concubine shouldn't ask, it's just a moment of curiosity."

"Okay, the mourning family is tired, you can go down."

"The concubine bows and kneels."

Leaving Tianshou Palace and returning to Ziyunxuan, Xu Jinrou frowned and thought,

After seeing her today, the queen didn't mention a word about Shen Xinsu, but only talked about Yunjin, not only to have a dragon on her clothes, but also to make a dragon robe.

The queen tested her, did she really want to change her title to the emperor? These words were just hoping that she would pass on the queen's desire to be emperor to Liu Rentu and test the attitude of this prisoner.

Concubine Rong, who sent Yunjin to Xiban, also had the meaning of stammering, and the queen wanted to change her name as emperor, but in the end she still needed the consent of Emperor Yuwen Zongheng of Xiban.

Fang Ruo walked in, holding a wooden box,

"Princess, when will this Yunjin be sent? But will you send it to the garment bureau to do it? ”

Xu Jinrou bowed slightly, "Yes, if the queen wants to make brocade clothes for Concubine Ximanrong, she will definitely hand over this errand to Mama Chen, a skilled sewing craftsman in the palace's garment bureau." ”

"What does the princess mean, is this brocade robe given to Liu Rentu also made by Mama Chen?"

Xu Jinrou took out the cloud brocade from the wooden box, and on the emerald blue brocade cloth was the pattern of mandarin duck and white lotus.

She stroked Yun Jin with her hand, and a cold color flashed in her eyes, "Concubine Rong's brocade and Liu Jianguo's brocade naturally need to be made by the same person, so that it will be interesting in the future." ”
