Chapter 167 The concubine 37

Zhou Jijiu read Inspector Liu's letter, in which he praised the student Wang Ziming, saying that he was a talented person. This examination was originally just a test of the waters. If he failed unfortunately, he hoped that Mr. Zhou would enroll him in the Imperial College to study. .

The following is an article Ziming wrote in the past. After Zhou Jijiu read it, he felt that it was indeed quite organized, but it still needed some work. Given time, he would be able to achieve something.

It just so happened that there was a vacancy at the Imperial College, so he accepted the job.

In this way, Ziming entered the Imperial College to study and began his life as a day student.

As expected, Yao Niang entered Qingyun Girls' School. Now both children have to go to school during the day. However, Yao Niang is still young and needs to be picked up and dropped off by Lin Hui every day, while Ziming walks to school by himself.

After the girls' school started, I discovered that the things they teach are quite broad. In addition to the required traditional cultural courses, there are also alternatives such as piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, horse riding, archery, and arithmetic.

Of course, you don’t have to learn all of these. Depending on the student’s interest, you only need to choose at least three of them to study and pass the final exam.

Yao Niang has a wide range of interests. Except for piano and painting, she has chosen all other electives. She is especially interested in horse riding and archery.

She used to exercise with her brother every day under her mother's order. In the past few years, her physical fitness has been quite good, she has rarely been sick, and she has become a lot more lively.

As Lin Hui received orders again and again, and then completed and delivered them, more and more of her works entered the market, were seen by more people, and attracted a lot of attention.

The capital is a gathering place for powerful and wealthy people across the country. As long as something is really good, there will definitely be someone who can recognize it and not be afraid that no one will appreciate it.

The same goes for Lin Hui's embroidery works. Soon someone discovered the difference in these works.

First of all, it goes without saying that the embroidery work is exquisite. Secondly, the composition is novel and original. Even old elements can be embroidered with new patterns. This is very popular with the women of wealthy families.

After all, the women who most often deal with embroidery works are those women at home.

They have seen many designs on the market and love to come up with novelty. If anyone can get a new and unique piece of embroidery, and other women among relatives and friends know about it, they will definitely arouse envy and jealousy.

Therefore, the reaction caused by an excellent embroidery is not as simple as attracting more business, especially Lin Hui's specialty: double-sided embroidery with different colors. Once the works embroidered using this technique have been released on the market, It was immediately warmly welcomed and attracted a lot of attention.

Because double-sided embroidery with different colors was a craft only available in the previous dynasties. Due to wars and the change of dynasties, it is said that this embroidery method has been lost long ago. Therefore, people who collect double-sided embroidery works with different colors regard them as heirlooms. valuable.

However, now that this embroidery method has come back to the world, it has naturally attracted a lot of people's attention. Many families hope to get a work of double-sided embroidery with different colors, either as a family heirloom or as a dowry for their daughter. OK

Soon Linglong Embroidery Workshop was found out, and even Lin Hui's identity was found out.

However, at this time, someone had already seen Lin Hui's extraordinary embroidery skills, and placed many orders one after another, all of which designated Mrs. Lin to do it herself.

There are also people who want to break the rules and jump in line to get the embroidery products early, but Linglong Embroidery Workshop is the dowry business of Princess Duan and cannot tolerate ordinary people.

Prince Duan is the younger brother of the current emperor. When the emperor ascended the throne, Prince Duan was only four years old, two years younger than the emperor's eldest son, so he was always raised in the palace.

Since his biological mother died young, the emperor and empress had to take care of him. He was called a younger brother, but it was actually the same as raising another son.

Prince Duan lived in the palace until he was fifteen or sixteen years old, and did not move out of the palace to live in the palace until he was about to get married.

It can be said that Prince Duan grew up watching Jinshang and the Queen, and their relationship is no better than that of ordinary brothers.

Princess Duan was also a candidate hand-picked by the Queen. Needless to say, her family background and character were well-established. Since she was personally selected by the Queen herself, she was even more dignified than ordinary princesses in front of the Queen over the years.

Therefore, no matter whether they are high-ranking officials or nobles, as long as they have some brains, they will not touch Princess Duan's property and related manpower. Those who dare to think about it or even take action are not people who can play the cards.

There are people like this who cannot see the situation clearly. In order to get a double-sided embroidery piece for their daughter as a dowry, they jump in line at Linglong Embroidery Workshop but fail to show off and show off their authority. In the end, they even have someone break up the shop. There are a few embroideries in there to cheer up.

This person is Mrs. Zhou, the wife of the newly appointed Tongyi doctor, Mr. Liu.

She had just come to Beijing with her husband. Her daughter had been engaged to a concubine from Prince Min's palace and was to get married within the year. This time she heard about the double-sided embroidery that was newly popular in the capital and wanted to make one for her daughter as a embroidery. dowry.

However, she came to the capital for the first time from out of town and did not find out the details of Linglong Embroidery Workshop. She was arrogant just because her family was married to the prince, and felt that she was superior to others. Who knows, but this time she kicked the iron wall.

Princess Duan learned of the incident that afternoon. Since the matter involved Prince Min's Mansion, she did not act rashly, but handed the sign to the palace.

The next day, Princess Duan brought Lin Hui's most outstanding double-sided embroidery work into the palace and presented it to the queen.

When the queen was praising the embroidery, Princess Duan told what happened in the store yesterday as if she were joking, as if she just wanted to say that double-sided embroidery was so popular in the capital.

The queen just chuckled lightly at that time, with no expression on her face, but later people found out what happened.

Two days later, the queen found an excuse to reprimand Princess Min, making her shut up and think about her mistakes.

King Min is the emperor's elder brother. He has always been honest, cowardly and incompetent. He did not participate in the dispute with Jinshang for the throne, otherwise he would not be able to live safely until now.

Soon, Princess Min knew the cause of the incident, and she couldn't help but secretly scold Lord Liu for being lax in running the family, which had caused her to suffer. So, she reported to King Min, canceled the marriage of this bastard, and found another family. Get married.

Not to mention how angry Princess Min was, and how the couple complained and quarreled with their daughter, Mr. Liu, whose daughter had been annulled, but this incident was beneficial to Lin Hui, and the benefits were great.

Because her works were presented to the emperor and caught the eyes of the most noble woman in the world.

The queen liked the double-sided embroidery work of different colors presented by Princess Duan very much. It was a lotus picture, with lotus leaves and several flower buds on one side, and several blooming lotus flowers on the other side.

In fact, the palace also has several double-sided embroidery works in its collection, but due to the passage of time, the patterns on them are no longer fresh. The queen is not very interested in it, but she is particularly fond of the work presented by Princess Duan. add.

Because the queen's maiden name has the word "Lotus" in it, she inevitably prefers patterns with lotus elements in her daily wear. This embroidery was so popular with her that she even wanted to make a embroidery. The thoughts of the person who created this work.
