Chapter 506

"Empress, what you said, if one day, Empress Empress can grasp the abnormal relationship between me and Mr. Xia Ge, I am willing to be punished."

"Since the prince can say this, I will trust you for the time being."

"It doesn't matter whether the empress or the empress believes each other. The servant is loyal to the master. Whether the master believes it or not, the minister has no way to control it. If there is nothing to do, the minister will leave first. The emperor ordered the minister to do it, and the minister has not yet dealt with it." That's right. As for the things that the empress gave to the princess, I will let the princess come to thank you someday."

"Go back."

At that time, how high-spirited Qin Wanyi was.

"The Queen's dress is okay today."

"Thank you for your compliment, Your Majesty, it's a blessing for these clothes and accessories if your Majesty likes it."

"Lan Xin met the emperor's wife."

"Princess Lan Xin, it's the first time we meet, as the emperor said, she is both talented and beautiful."

"My sister-in-law is a little embarrassed to praise the emperor's sister-in-law like this. In terms of both talents and looks, she should be the emperor's wife, right? After the final ceremony, with the emperor's wife in charge of the harem, and the emperor's brother in the previous court, I will feel more at ease. The minister congratulates the emperor with this wine, and is happy to have the help of a beautiful woman. May the emperor's brother and the emperor, in the future, love each other and raise their eyebrows."

"I like Lan Xin's words."

"Lan Xin is really smart and has a good tongue."

"The emperor's brother and sister-in-law have won the award. Lan Xin is overjoyed to be praised by the emperor's brother and sister-in-law."

"The emperor and queen are so polite, but they are a little alienated. The princess is a righteous sister, why should she be so polite between sisters-in-law?"

"My lord said this, as if we are not a family. You and Lan Xin are going to get married soon, and soon, we will be a family."

"The queen's empress said that, it was close. But the minister said that, it was presumptuous. However, the queen's empress can treat the minister as her own family, and the minister is very happy."

"My lord, you don't have to be so polite, and you don't have to be so careful. It's just a family banquet, so why make it so exaggerated."

"Then it is better to be respectful than to obey."

"Lan Xin, don't you have enough jewelry? Although this silver hairpin is exquisitely made and the style is not bad, it is still a cheap thing. You are a princess, so wearing this on your head is probably not good."

"The emperor's sister-in-law was joking. There were still a lot of jewelry that the emperor rewarded when he was canonized last time. It's just that the younger sister thinks that the court is spending money now, and the younger sister can save a little bit. Besides, silver jewelry is better than gold jewelry." The gold ornaments are more exquisite. The gold ornaments given by the emperor's brother are of high purity and softer. The money made is not as much as the silver ornaments. Therefore, the younger sister decided to reduce the number of gold ornaments in the future. As long as it is not a large occasion, some silver ornaments will be used instead. Gold ornaments, this will not look shabby, and can also reduce the expenditure on jewelry. The emperor's wife also knows that on weekdays, most of the palace flowers are used in the palace, and most of the palace flowers are made of silk, which is perishable. Durable."

"Lan Xin is right. Since this is the case, next time Lan Xin buys silver hairpins, she will also buy some for me. I can also wear them at ordinary times. We all have to bear the expenses of the court together, don't we?"

"It's good for the queen to have this idea. I'm so relieved. It seems that what King Huiwen said is correct. This matter can indeed be promoted in the harem. Those little concubines, court ladies and female officials can all make some money. Put the hairpin there and wear it at ordinary times."

"What the emperor said is true. The harem spends a lot on various jewelry, and gold with high purity is relatively soft and can be made with few tricks. Besides, it is not a good thing to be full of pearls and emeralds. What are the palace flowers?" Yes, it is indeed perishable, and some female officials are frugal and don't like gold jewelry, so in this case, silver hairpins are very good."

"The queen thought about it, but I didn't think of it. The queen is still caring."

"Enough is enough, let's talk about one thing about the harem. What the emperor's brother and sister-in-law said is like a conversation between husband and wife, which makes people very envious."

"Lan Xin doesn't need to be envious, you will get married soon, and then you can too."

"The empress can joke all the time, how can you and the emperor be compared to the princess?"

"My lord, you don't have to be polite. This is not a matter of comparison. As long as the relationship between the two is good, you don't have to say these things, and it will be enviable."

"The queen is right. They are doing things together often now, and they will have to wait until they get married. At that time, it will not be them talking about us, but we will talk about them."

"That's the reason. When the time comes, maybe we envy them."

"The emperor's brother and sister-in-law will always make fun of us."

"It's ours now, and when the time comes, we'll have it. Your Majesty, your matchmaker is really suitable. This month's old red line, I'm afraid it's not as suitable as yours."

"I didn't expect that they hit it off so well. At the beginning, I just thought that Lan Xin was alone, and Feng Yong should get married. If the two are suitable, we can just be a matchmaker."

"King Huiwen come here with me. I have something to discuss with you. Lan Xin will wait in the Queen's Palace. After talking about the matter, I will send someone to send a car to take you out. Don't worry about getting the key to the palace."

"The minister obeys the order."

"What do you mean by recommending silver jewelry?"

"What the emperor said, I don't know where to start. Gold jewelry is expensive, palace flowers are perishable, and silver jewelry is a compromise choice. Since the emperor asked the minister to help the Ministry of Internal Affairs, what does the emperor have to do with this suggestion? Strange? Besides, the number of concubines in the palace is increasing day by day. If gold ornaments and precious stones are given to the palace people at will, it is not a small expense. In addition to the usual attire, it does not necessarily have to be full of gold and jade. It is incomparably gorgeous, using silver hairpins not only has a variety of styles, but also can add a touch of elegance, I think this is a good thing."

"It's fine for the palace servants to use silver ornaments, but if concubines use silver ornaments, what's the proper way?"

"Your Majesty, in fact, most of the jewels of ladies are gold ornaments and jade. Jade is naturally very elegant, but jade is ruthless. It seems that it is cold after all. There are many patterns of silver jewelry, and there are many patterns that can be made. As for looking tired. Besides, jade has been used in this dynasty for many years, and there is no breakthrough, and it is difficult for craftsmen to innovate. At this time, recommending silver jewelry can not only save costs, but also stimulate those craftsmen to make better jewelry. Now What is popular outside the palace is based on the inside of the palace. Even if a jewelry store outside the palace launches some unexpected products, it will wait for the inside to use it first, but if the palace does not accept it, the outside of the palace is equal to In this way, it is also very detrimental to the development of this industry. Besides, when the imperial court is using money, no matter what it does, it needs money. The three armies have not moved, and the food and grass go first. There are many people, after all, it is not a small amount of money. A small amount of money is worth a lot. The emperor may not look down on this little money now, but when it is really needed, he can only save money and increase taxes. In the end, it is not a toss People, do you still feel uncomfortable?"

"You are right, but those in the harem may not be willing to use silver jewelry."

"Your Majesty, in fact, I am not asking all the concubines to wear silver ornaments, but to let those empresses not all wear silver ornaments. You have also seen the appearance of the princess today. Do you think that the princess is too shabby to go out today? Simple Even the silver ornaments made by you don’t make people feel this way, let alone those inlaid with precious stones and jade? To tell you the truth, I have already ordered a silver phoenix crown for the empress at the jewelry shop. The main body is silver, inlaid with jade and jade. Gemstones, when the time comes, the emperor will know what the ministers mean. In fact, even if the phoenix crowns of the ladies in the harem are made of gold, with so many jewels and emeralds, they can't be seen as gold. It's better to use silver ornaments, which are more It’s easy to save money. Gold with too high purity and rare gemstones, craftsmen are careful not to innovate, but if it’s replaced with silver jewelry, this matter will change a lot, won’t it?”

"The post-sealing ceremony, you won't give this as a congratulatory gift, will you?"

"Your Majesty, I don't have much money. In addition, the effect of this will not be bad, so I am bold and ready to use this as one of the gifts for the Queen's Ceremony."

"If it's one of them, you can give them all. I'm afraid it's inappropriate. Even people from the tribe will come that day. You're too shabby to give away, not worthy of your position."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, what I have given you will definitely be worthy of my position. Moreover, I propose to use silver jewelry in the harem to help you contain Concubine Xia."

"What's with her?"

"Your Majesty, Concubine Xia, you will restore her right away. But once Mr. Qin's matter is resolved, Xia Ge will always feel that he sold you a favor. Don't you think it's not good? At this time, use silver jewelry instead." Concubine Xia is the most reluctant in the harem. In fact, other concubines, even the empress, have no opinion on this, and they don't even care, but Concubine Xia is different. Would she be willing to wear a silver hairpin? It was an imperial decree, and she didn't dare to disobey it, but it wasn't because she broke her teeth and swallowed blood. Happy, if she has an attack, then you will continue to be grounded, and Mr. Xia Ge will be even more unhappy, and you will save money, wouldn't you kill two birds with one stone?"

"I always say that King Huiwen wins my heart the most."

"The emperor praised me, but I just did what I should do."

"By the way, how did I hear that you are ordering a dragon and phoenix coat? Why, in such a hurry, are you ordering a wedding dress?"

"No, your majesty, the dragon and phoenix coat is for you and the empress. The empress title is equivalent to the emperor's wedding. I heard that the emperor's wedding must wear this. Everyone wears it when they pack their luggage. Auspicious clothes, at night, wearing this can be regarded as making up for the regret of not having a big wedding. Of course, the emperor and the queen naturally have a deep relationship and don't care about these things. But I feel that the queen is a happy event, why not Do it more satisfactorily? So I ordered this privately and prepared to give it to the emperor and empress, hoping that the emperor and empress will not feel that I have made my own decisions."

"I didn't expect that I and the empress were first wives, and the marriage was not very good back then. It is right to make up for it now. It's just that it doesn't seem very appropriate to hold a big wedding like this. It's very good that you do it, very good."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment. I am also preparing to ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to prepare the bedroom and decorations for you and the empress according to the wedding etiquette. I hope it can make the empress ceremony even more perfect."

"You still have a heart."

"It's a minister's blessing to be able to share the worries of the emperor. The emperor always considers the minister, and the minister dare not not be dedicated."

"You don't have to be so careful. It's just the two of us now. Besides, you and Lan Xin are going to get married soon. We are all on our own. Why are you so careful?"

"The minister and the princess are the emperor's grace. The minister's respect to the emperor cannot be avoided no matter what. This is the duty of the minister. The emperor and the minister are close, it is the emperor's tolerance. If the minister is too close, it is Overstepping, absolutely impossible."

"You've always been so careful, I just like how careful you are."

"Your Majesty praised me, what I should do." Feng Yong was still very respectful.

"After the draft here, you and Lan Xin should also choose a date to get married. When the time comes, should I give Lan Xin a mansion, or give you a bigger mansion?"

"Your Majesty, I'm used to living here and don't like to change. Presumably the princess is too. Besides, it's just the two of us, so we don't need so many places. The princess's home is far away, and the family doesn't come here often, so it's useless to live in such a big place. Princess I also don't like having too many people and making noise, so thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

"I do know that your thoughts are just that the mansion of the princess and the king of the line is too small for yours. Look at the mansion of the other king of the line, which is two or three times larger than yours. It’s too old, you have the same status, it’s too shabby. How about this, after you get married, I will be near the palace, let you choose a location, build a similar size, and the treasury will pay for it, so it’s okay, right?”

"Then... that minister, I would like to thank the emperor for his kindness."

"After the draft, you go to choose a place. By the way, have you arranged the draft?"

"Your Majesty, the matter of the draft is almost the same, but the cosmetics need to be discussed again. You also know that some shops and cosmetics have secret recipes, and they are unwilling to disclose the secret recipes. But the rules of the palace are like this , so it's just a bit embarrassing." Feng Yong said lightly.

"That's the reason, the palace should be more careful. You tell them on behalf of me that the palace will keep the secret recipe secret. If it is selected into the palace, if the concubine uses it well, it may be given to other countries as a gift. This is a great honor, let them weigh it before making a decision. If they are still obsessed with it, it’s fine.”

"What the emperor said is very true. I have a vast land and abundant resources, and I am not short of these things. I just feel that it is a pity. It is a pity that women can't use things that ordinary people can use.
