Courtiers and those who are not worthy of romance with the king, but those in high positions also know that it is better to tame the title of power than to tame the favor and appreciation.

Death for a confidant.

Concubine Min spoke softly, and as she spoke, she thought of the person who was called the little sister-in-law, and they had met once, and in the original carriage, he recklessly ran across the avenue and crashed into the frame of His Majesty's carriage, and His Majesty not only did not get angry, but also called him up and sent him home.

He didn't remember much about that brother's face, only that his skin was very white, his eyes were bright, and he was very beautiful, but he remembered clearly what His Majesty had said.

Changliu Lane, I can't help but feel a little wronged by you.

In the palace, there is a courtyard that is very suitable for you, planted a few willow trees, growing very luxuriantly, the willow is soft, the white flocculent is flying, and now no one lives, if you are interested, you can come to live.

He had never seen His Majesty speak like this to any female brother.

So forgiving.

Naturally, he has never seen a brother speak and act so boldly, so detached, and not take His Majesty in his eyes.

He has followed His Majesty for many years, and knows how strong His Majesty's desire to control is, especially when he is a prince, the more he has to do flawlessly, the more he can't have anything beyond his control, even the people around him, a word, a look, if it is not to his liking, he will be gently glanced at, but only those who live around him understand what this glance means.

That brother is a little special, and he also hopes that His Majesty will agree to this marriage.

The emperor opened his eyes slightly and glanced at him with a faint smile.

Concubine Min immediately took a step back, knelt on the step, hung her head and stopped talking.

He stretched out his hand to hold Concubine Min's chin: "When will Shen Hong be able to affect my pillow person." ”

Concubine Min raised her head, still lowering her eyes and not daring to look at him: "The concubine lives in the deep palace, and she doesn't know anything about the outside world, and she is speechless for a while, but she feels that Your Majesty might as well be kind to him, and everything in the world can be easily obtained by Lord Shen, and only this can be considered complete if it is given by His Majesty, how can he not wag his tail and beg for mercy." ”

"Wagging your tail and begging for mercy." The emperor repeated these four words, and shook his head with some sighs: "Shen Hong lives in this world, his ability, means, and temperament can make his arrogance worthy of these four words. ”

Concubine Min raised her eyes and glanced at the emperor in puzzlement.

The emperor let go of him, and did not speak for a long time, and the way of the emperor should be ruthless, loveless, and even better desireless, so that he would not be wasted, degenerate, or confused.

"How can he get what I didn't get?"

"I don't bother to snatch a useless brother, but the person I have taken a fancy to has no reason to give it to him."

They should all be lonely people, a wise man who is a wise man who is bound to be hurt, and there is no reason for him to be left alone to keep warm, and there is no reason for God to give him only a way out.

Chapter 186

The second aunt brought Yu Niang over to gossip, and Yu Niang sat quietly next to her.

The second aunt is not good for Yu Niang to be bored at home alone, even if there is nothing to do, she has to take her out for a walk.

The two families have already agreed to get married, and even if the marriage is interrupted, it can be regarded as a conventional marriage contract, and everything will be done as soon as Erzhu returns.

"Those few fine works were also arrested, and they were not put in the local trial, but were directly sent to Shangjing, which shows how angry the imperial court is."

Yu Niang echoed softly: "I heard that those fine works are all girls and brothers...... It's pathetic. ”

The second aunt shook her head: "Don't go out and say this, otherwise others will scold you together." ”

Yu Niang nodded in a panic: "I don't mean to sympathize with them, just ......"

The second aunt took her hand: "Why don't I know your heart, you had the best heart, what good can a girl and her brother get in this troubled world?" Now that they have been arrested, they have no way to live, and they don't know how much they will suffer, but Erzhu is suffering and guarding outside, and they are also considered enemies, so these words are not easy to say. ”

"That's what my aunt said."

Lin Piao watched the deep affection between the two mothers-in-law and daughter-in-law from the side, and listened to the second aunt's emotion: "I heard the Qi family say that they are not foreign daughters and brothers, they are all mongrets. ”

Lin Piao's eyes secretly wandered around the house, and only when he saw that there was no mixed-race nearby, he said, "How ugly is this, it's better to call it mixed-blood." ”

The second aunt thought for a while: "This is not a curse, they all say this, they are both Daning and Gentile species, so they are called mongrels, and you have taken them in a lot, so you still tell them to go out less, so as not to cause anything and make others talk about it, which is not good for them." ”

"I know that only those who look like Daning can enter and leave the mansion, and everything else is in the mansion, and the mansion is so big that they can run back and forth."

"It's good that everyone is fine, in the recent past, the big Zhuang Zhang Luo people have built a new caravan, reselling things that come and go, and can sell our things, it is very cost-effective, that is, Xiaoyue and Juan'er are going to be busy fainting, I went to Yuemingfang that day to see, there are other embroidery girls who can watch in the store on weekdays, and now they are busy doing embroidery work, and those who can be idle to watch the store can't spare their hands, Yuniang is also bored at home, so I want to help, saying that I will help guard Yuemingfang, and it is considered to do something early."

"It's a good thing, Yu Niang wants to go, just go directly, and when the time comes, I'll see Xiaoyue, it's fun to talk and have fun together, and you can see the store together."

Yu Niang sat aside: "I will work hard, I see that Xiaoyue and they have to carry a large string of things, what materials and how much money, they must be able to say the Tao in the first place, in order to introduce it to others clearly, I have been memorizing the names of those materials for the past two days." ”

Lin Piao agreed with her learning spirit, during this time he also often went to Yuemingfang, and there was nothing to do at home recently, except for when Shen Hong was about to return home, the rest of the days were guarded in the embroidery workshop, if Yu Niang went to the embroidery workshop, he could also take Yu Niang.

So they agreed, and on the second day they made an appointment to meet at the embroidery workshop.

On the second day, Yu Niang came to the embroidery workshop early, and Lin Piao introduced him to some things in the shop, and then asked Xiao Er to explain to him carefully, took an inventory booklet, and showed her various names.

Yu Niang is obviously a lot more lively in Yuemingfang, although the second aunt is very good to her, but after all, there is a relationship with her mother-in-law, she always has a trace of restraint, and she is much more relaxed in front of Lin Piao, as if Lin Piao is still the brother Piao of many years ago, with an innocent and cute attitude.

"Brother Piao, do you want tea, bring a few new teas."

"Brother Piao, do you want to eat pastries, and I brought pastries over."

Lin Piao ate a little, and then told her not to worry about herself, just do her own thing first, there are a lot of things coming and going in the store, and try not to be disturbed by these things to concentrate.

When Yu Niang heard her say this, she really found that she was a little easily distracted, and if Xiao Yue would definitely not have any reaction to these little things, she just did her own thing, and then talked about these little things when she was done.

Yu Niang nodded: "I know Brother Piao, I will work hard." ”

Lin Piao deliberately waited here today, one was to come out to help Xiao Yue relieve the pressure, and the other was to make an appointment to talk about business today.

Recently, there has been a large batch of "orders", which are customized orders from other places, which are somewhat similar to the high-end customization of dance company dance costumes in the Qinlou Chu Pavilion.

Lin Piao asked Da Zhuang to refuse once, but the other party begged each other and discussed all kinds of things, saying that he wanted to see Lin Piao and wanted to talk to Lin Piao in person.

Lin Piao thought about it for a while, but still agreed, because this person came from thousands of miles to order their family's clothes, and this bit of face still had to be given.

Lin Piao waited for a while, and a charming girl walked in, about thirty years old, looking very mature, and asked the boss if he was there.

Lin Piao looked at her: "I am." ”

The other party immediately reported her home, and she was the one who wanted to order clothes.

Lin Piao asked someone to serve tea, invited someone upstairs to talk, and Xiao Yue went to the warehouse to count the goods.

The two sat down downstairs, and the other party said a basket of good things, and praised them, and praised Yuemingfang to the heavens and the earth, vowing to set this order.

Lin Piao looked at him: "You set our clothes, one of the gimmicks is the words Yuemingfang, you even the dancing girls who perform are wearing clothes that are liked by the ladies of Shangjing, as soon as you hit this gimmick, naturally there are a cloud of visitors, and some people are willing to buy it, but from now on, how can Yuemingfang live in Shangjing again?" ”

The nobles of Shangjing can't stand this, they want a noble and unique, no matter how expensive they are, they are willing to spend money, but if they want to say that they wear the same grade as the maiko, then they will only burn the clothes of Yuemingfang overnight, and spit on them by the way.

When the other party heard him say this, no matter how much money he paid, he couldn't be impressed, so he said: "How dare you have this meaning, I just hope you will be accommodating, we don't say that this dress is made from Yuemingfang, and you don't recognize it, so it has nothing to do with Yuemingfang?" It was in that small place that we heard about the demeanor of the twelve flower gods in Shangjing, and we also wanted to learn to do such a grand ceremony. ”

When Lin Piao heard her say the Twelve Flower Gods, he sighed in his heart that this was a long time ago, and it was still slowly spreading outside.

Lin Piao's words just now were hinting that she had cleared up the relationship and came here with a task It is not easy, she returned empty-handed, and Lin Piao is also empty-handed, so it is better to fish for something together, but this thing can never be admitted to be made by Yuemingfang.

They deliberated carefully for a while, but Lin Piao did not explicitly agree, but just asked her to leave and wait, hinting at her, and she seemed to have forgotten the box with her silver ticket, so she put it on the table, which was regarded as paying a deposit.

Lin Piao thought that making twelve clothes was not a troublesome task, and he could let Xiao Yue look at it and make a little difference from the original, even if there were other problems later, he could use these details to make a public relations reputation.

Lin Piao was thinking about how to arrange these things, when he heard a commotion from below, which was not high-pitched, and only the voices of a few women came together, and it seemed a little noisy.

Lin Piao walked quickly to the staircase, took two steps and looked down from the staircase, and saw Yu Niang standing a little helplessly on the other side of the little sisters, frowning and picking on them.

Although Yu Niang was at a loss, she also knew that it was important to appease the guests, and apologized one after another: "I only came today, many things are not familiar, please forgive me for not speaking well, please sit down and drink tea to extinguish the fire, let Xiao Er talk about it." ”

"What about the cold moon? Isn't she always in the store? Why did it become you today? You don't know anything well, what are you going to do, we don't come to the store to spend time with a maid like you. ”

Lin Piao thought about how Yu Niang was also a little sister of an official family, and now she was Erzhu's fiancée, so it was right to raise her head and chest and say two sentences, but Yu Niang entered the role too quickly, and she was not angry at all.

When the little sister on the side heard Yu Niang say this, she chuckled: "Please sit down and have tea?" I don't know, I still think this Mingyuefang is yours, come out to work, talk in a big tone, and I can't say things clearly, or don't stay cool. ”

Lin Piao stopped and didn't go down for the time being, wanting to see how Yu Niang would deal with it, if she couldn't cope with it, and didn't even dare to say a word, then she wouldn't be suitable for doing this part-time job, even if she just came out to do things together to pass the time, there was no good way to do a job that was not suitable for herself, and she would find a reason to be angry with herself.

They looked Yu Niang up and down, and saw that Yu Niang was dressed well, and even more ridiculed, probably really thought that Yu Niang was a maid, and saw that she was well dressed and beautiful, so they felt offended, and the girl followed Yu Niang, and several times she was angry and wanted to speak for Yu Niang, but before she could say anything, she was stopped by Yu Niang, shook her head and told her not to come out.

When they saw that she was so good to the maid beside her, the other party protected her like a little sister, and their attitude became more and more scornful.

"Han Yue is still too good to his subordinates, and there are too many clothes in Yuemingfang, and all cats and dogs are dressed so neatly, I don't know which little sister I thought it was that ran out."

Yu Niang looked at them, a little puzzled: "Am I dressed well to hinder your eyes?" It's not that you can't afford to wear it, so why are you so angry. ”

Lin Piao was ecstatic and appeared, a little natural but lethal.

The faces of several young ladies changed several times, and after taking a look at the decoration on Yu Niang's body, they felt bored that Yu Niang was not only wearing this dress, but also had a jade pendant hanging on her body, which was in excellent condition.

Another said: "Yuemingfang likes to hang clothes and decorations on people's bodies, so that they are easy to sell, but you are really ordinary when you wear them, how dare you be arrogant?" ”

As he spoke, two more girls came outside, no, to be precise, a girl and a brother, because both of them were dressed very exquisitely, and the brother was so gentle and beautiful that at first glance he would think he was a woman.

When they walked in, they obviously got out of the carriage, and their bodies were clean and clean, and even the skirts and edges of their shoes were fresh.

When they walked in, the little sisters in the Yueming Fang all had a feeling of giving in, avoided standing on one side, and then greeted them with a smile, and when they came in, they saw them standing on both sides of each other, and asked what was wrong, and they were all yin and yang, and told the two people who came after them with a smile.

The elder brother looked very cold and looked like he had nothing to do with himself, but the girl frowned slightly and looked at them: "You are the youngest sister of the official eunuch family in Shangjing, why bother with the same girl outside?" It is true that a broad mind can tolerate talents, but if you are too mean, it will not be good. ”

She said this gently, and the expressions of the men changed several times, and at last they responded with a few casual words, and then hurried away under the pretext that they had something else to do.

Lin Piao didn't expect to meet such a well-organized person today, so he walked downstairs, just as the little sister was walking in front of Yu Niang and comforting Yu Niang's mental state.

Lin Piao walked downstairs, she raised her eyes and saw Lin Piao a little surprised: "Why is Mrs. Lin here?" ”

"Let's take a look at the embroidery workshop."

"Madame is really hardworking, and now that she has such an identity, she will do everything herself." She was somewhat surprised by the praise.

"It's just that things are busy now, and there is nothing to do when I am idle, so it is not in the way of coming out to take care of it."

Lin Piao walked to Yu Niang's side and comforted Yu Niang a few words: "You go to the back to rest." ”

Yu Niang nodded and went to the back room.

Lin Piao personally received the two and introduced them to the latest fabrics, patterns, and some new clothes, as well as matching ideas, which were all clearly arranged by Juan'er in advance, and placed them together one by one, making the exhibition area very beautiful.

Lin Piao had seen the two of them before, but they had never had a deep friendship, and Xiao Yue had done a lot of work in dealing with people, and everyone had only met once at some activities.

After chatting for a while, they introduced their names.

The younger sister is called Ling Yuchu, and the son's name is Bai Dirou, Lin Piao can feel it after a little observation, this Ling Yuchu must be the "daughter" of the family, maybe the eldest daughter, very imposing, and strong in speaking, there is always a sense of teaching in the words, and she is a person who is used to giving orders in a high position.

Bai Di Rou has little to do with his name, his personality is not touched by the word Rou at all, he has a cold face and does not speak, he only cares about looking at the fabric and clothes, as if he is not interested in anything else, and he does not like to look at it with a little more glance from the side.

Lin Piao and Ling Yuchu talked for a while, and they felt quite pleasant, although Ling Yuchu had a strong attitude and felt like a housewife all over her body, but her personality was her character, and Lin Piao liked her to be a person who had a very positive style of doing things and didn't look at the dishes.

The two chatted for a while, and Ling Yuchu said that Yu Niang was bored to stay alone in the back, so it was better to ask her to come out together to drink tea and talk, and there was no need to talk about any fabrics, just chat.

Lin Piao's impression of her rushed upwards and asked Xiao Er to call Yu Niang out, and the few of them gathered at the small table next to them, and chatted for a while over refreshments, and Ling Yuchu exchanged names with Yu Niang, and made an appointment that they could come and go often and have fun together in the future.
