Quick travel to save a miserable life
Chapter 168 The concubine 38
A nun from Prince Duan's Mansion led several people to the courtyard of the Wang family. After sizing up Lin Hui, she informed her that she would follow Princess Duan into the palace in three days.
Although Lin Hui believed that she had seen a lot of things in the world, she still felt a little uneasy when she had to face such a figure at the top of the feudal dynasty. She was worried that her lack of response would bring disaster to her family.
Even Ziming was also worried. After staying in the capital for this year, he also gained a lot of knowledge. He met many children of powerful families and gained a lot of new understanding of power. Naturally, he knew that this time his mother entered the family. The palace is full of unpredictable fortunes and misfortunes.
Only Yao Niang was truly happy that her mother could enter the palace and see the world. She kept chattering with questions. It was not until the nun sent by Princess Duan to teach Lin Hui etiquette arrived that she shut her mouth.
After three days of etiquette assault training, Lin Huicai changed into the clothes sent by Princess Duan and entered the palace with the princess.
Lin Hui followed Princess Duan and passed through many palaces before arriving at Kunning Palace where the queen lived.
When summoned, Lin Hui followed Princess Duan without raising her head, but she could hear the Queen's voice.
The queen's voice sounded particularly pleasant and friendly, not as serious as she imagined. Probably because Princess Duan was sitting there, the queen seemed to be in a very good mood.
Princess Duan was the cousin of the queen's aunt, and they were direct aunts and sisters, and later became sisters-in-law, so they knew each other well. Princess Duan often visited the palace, so there was no restraint in their conversation.
After Lin Hui saluted, she was even given a seat. It was only when she stood up and sat down that she could look up and see the queen's true face.
The queen's appearance could only be described as dignified, not outstanding. She was wearing a semi-old brocade palace dress and only had two or three pieces of jewelry on her body, giving her a completely homely look.
The queen's actual age should be in her forties or close to fifty, but she looks like she is in her thirties. Her skin is fair and delicate, and there are basically no wrinkles on her face. It is completely impossible to tell that she has given birth to four sons and one daughter, and her grandchildren are in their teens. Year old people.
Lin Hui took a quick look and didn't dare to look more. She still lowered her eyelids and sat half-assed on the embroidered pier. When the queen asked, she could only raise her head and nod to answer. She only looked at the person in front of the queen. Clothing, but not looking directly at the face.
The queen was very satisfied with Lin Hui's knowledge of etiquette. She originally thought that Lin Hui, a widowed woman from a small place, just accidentally discovered the double-sided embroidery method and had no other merits.
But now it seems that this is just the first time for Mrs. Lin to enter the palace. She passed so many palaces along the way but could not look away. Although she was inevitably a little reserved when meeting, she was still polite. It would be strange if she had always been generous. .
Mrs. Lin acted in an orderly manner, and her voice was calm when she answered. It was obvious that she was a well-organized person. No wonder she was able to single-handedly teach a young man to succeed after her husband passed away.
Lin Hui could be summoned to the palace, and her origins must have been thoroughly investigated, otherwise she would not have dared to summon her rashly.
The queen praised Lin Hui's work and asked Lin Hui to embroider another table screen for her. She wanted to put it on the table in the living room so that she could see it every day.
Lin Hui took the Queen's reward and left the palace with Princess Duan. Before leaving, Princess Duan specially called her to talk and warned her not to be arrogant because of this.
In fact, without Princess Duan's instructions, Lin Hui would not become distracted just because she was summoned by the queen once.
After she returned, she continued to work as diligently as before, but naturally she was making the table screen ordered by the queen, and other orders had to be put in the back row.
The queen obviously knew about the situation of the Wang family, and the reward included a set of the Four Treasures of the Study and clothing materials suitable for Lin Hui and Yao Niang's age.
Lin Hui had to praise her for her thoroughness in her actions. Even a small person like her could be taken care of. She was worthy of being a person who has been firmly in charge of the harem for many years.
Although the table screen embroidered for the queen was also made by Lin Hui with great care, it was completed very quickly. Lin Hui did not dare to keep the noble lady waiting, so she sent the completed embroidery to Prince Duan's Mansion after only half a month.
She didn't dare to send it to the embroidery workshop, fearing that too many people would change hands in the process, and if something went wrong, it would be her fault.
Princess Duan was the one who would go to the palace every ten days and a half to talk to the queen, so she had the embroidery framed immediately after she got it, and sent it to the palace two days later.
When the queen saw the table screen, she really liked it, so she immediately had the original one replaced and placed it on the table for a closer look. The more she looked at it, the more she fell in love with it.
This time the reward for Lin Hui was sent directly to the Wang family by the palace supervisor. Now, everyone in the neighborhood knew that Mrs. Lin of the Wang family had won the favor of the queen because of her excellent embroidery skills. The Wang family courtyard suddenly became It became lively.
This was also because the Queen knew that Mrs. Lin had not been arrogant since she returned to the palace last time. She had been as low-key as before. This attitude made the Queen very satisfied and felt that Mr. Lin was indeed a down-to-earth person.
Therefore, this time she had people send the reward directly to the Wang family to raise Lin's status, so that no one would look at the orphans and widows of the Wang family and bully them. This was also to support Lin.
Sure enough, since then, Linglong Embroidery Workshop has sent people to say that Lin Hui does not need to rely on the embroidery workshop to take orders from now on, and can take on any job as long as the previous orders are completed, which means that the cooperation with the embroidery workshop has been terminated.
The visitor conveyed Princess Duan's wishes to Lin Hui very politely. Lin Hui knew that this was because Princess Duan saw that the queen was very fond of Lin Hui's embroidery and had a good impression of her as a person, so she let her embroidery workshop release her. , allowing Lin Hui to regain her freedom.
Although she no longer had the channel of Linglong Embroidery Workshop, Lin Hui became even more famous in the capital because of the Queen's reward.
What is good at the top will be bad at the bottom. Many dignitaries knew that even the queen was full of praise for Lin's embroidery, so they came to place orders with gifts prepared.
However, Lin Hui is more cautious in taking orders. She will not hold more than two orders in a period of time.
These people are either rich or noble, and she cannot afford to offend any of them. If something goes wrong, there are ways to make their family disappear without a trace.
Lin Hui understood very well that the queen only liked her embroidery and was not her patron. There was nothing in her that could move the queen's interests, so why should they protect her?
Time flies, two years have passed in the blink of an eye, and it’s time for a new session of examinations.
After three years of studying in the Imperial College, Ziming gained a lot under the guidance of famous teachers and scholars.
He was confident about this exam, but there was no sign of success on his face, and he still had a calm demeanor.
This made Lin Hui very satisfied, as long as she could calm down.
Character determines destiny. With such a good character, even if he cannot take off temporarily, his future future will not be bad.
