Chapter 157: Mr. Song is always brave
"This one, this one, and this one. Wrap them all up."
"These two wide-sleeved silk skirts are also nice, with elegant colors and unique embroidery. Cover them with the original image as well."
In the Chu family's silk shop, Song Yunchu picked out dozens of clothes in one breath and asked Bai Zhu to take them to the shopkeeper to pay.
Chu Yuni looked at the clothes and subconsciously asked, "Sir, what are you wearing?"
"The Flower Goddess Festival will be in half a month, so give the female guards in the mansion gifts in advance."
Song Yunchu said leisurely, "The guards under Honglian are all beautiful and decent. We can't let them wear rigid clothes all year round. When they are not on duty, they have to wear some nice clothes."
The guards are on duty in shifts. They will go out for a walk during their rest days and go shopping together during holidays. Since they are going to go out on the streets, they naturally have to dress up nicely and respectably.
Although Song Yunchu has been dressing as a man for a long time, she thinks she has a good taste and the clothes she picked should be to the liking of her subordinates.
"Lord Song is really kind to his female subordinates." Chu Yuni said, "And you have a very good eye for choosing clothes. They will definitely be overjoyed when they receive these clothes."
He was not exaggerating. Although he had never liked doing business since he was a child, it was his own shop after all, so he knew which clothes were good-looking.
Many clothes are tailored to the people who wear them. For example, Honglian has a bright appearance, so she is suitable for wearing brightly colored clothes. Miss Jiang is elegant and refined, so she is suitable for wearing light-colored clothes. There are several very plain dresses in his shop. The materials are high-quality, but the colors are dull. It is difficult for ordinary people to pull them off. But when she wears them, she gives people a sense of elegance and refinement.
The clothes that Lord Song just picked out are both good-looking and easy to wear, and are not very picky about who wears them.
Logically speaking, most men are not very good at choosing clothes, unless they are in the silk business. He has seen many male customers with poor taste who think they are rich and powerful and like to choose clothes with complicated styles. The more tassels and accessories they have, the more luxurious they look. However, they do not realize that when worn by their female relatives, they look cumbersome and vulgar.
But Lord Song is not like that. Whether it is his own fashion sense or the way he chooses clothes for others, his taste is impeccable.
He suddenly remembered what Mr. Kongxu said, that many gay men have very refined tastes, they seem to have nothing to do with the word vulgar, their words, actions, manners and vision are somewhat feminine, Lord Song's manners are free and easy, but... his vision and taste are indeed somewhat feminine, and the things he chooses are very pleasing to women.
so--
Sir Song is indeed the one below, right?
He had witnessed with his own eyes that Lord Song was rude to His Majesty, and he was still somewhat domineering when he knocked His Majesty unconscious. For a moment he even speculated that Lord Song's aura was really unlike the one below.
But it is obviously even less likely that Your Majesty will be in a lower position.
Seeing that Lord Song has such good taste in clothes, I feel that he lacks some masculinity.
Chu Yuni felt a little emotional.
No matter what, Lord Song is his superior and has done him a favor. In his heart, Lord Song is always a brave man.
"Sir Song, there are thirty pieces of clothing in total. I will pack them for you right away."
Chu Yuni saw the shopkeeper starting to count the bills and quickly shouted, "Master Song bought so many, but you didn't even think of giving him a few more. You have a stupid mind and you're not smart at all! Why don't you go upstairs and pick out a few better ones?"
"No need." Song Yunchu said, "In the palace, you and I are superiors and subordinates. Now in your shop, we are the boss and the customer. I won't take advantage of you. If you have any nice clothes upstairs, you can pack a few more and I'll pay for them later."
"Even if it's the relationship between the boss and the guest, our Chu family is not stingy when it comes to big customers, so why should you be so polite, sir?"
"In that case, you can just give me a set of men's clothes as a gift."
"Okay, I'll pick it out for you myself, and I guarantee you'll look great wearing it..."
"Don't praise me anymore. I don't want to hear it. Go pick it quickly."
“…”
In the evening, the sky was dark.
Jun Li Luo finished reading the last memorial on his left hand side and rubbed his eyebrows.
Li Zongguan, who was standing by, saw this and said quickly, "Your Majesty, are you tired? It's almost time for the meal, you should take a rest."
Jun Liluo said calmly, "Hmm," and said, "Serve the food."
After a while, the palace servants prepared dinner, and Jun Liluo stood up from behind the imperial desk and walked to the table.
Ever since he came back from the west of the city, his meals have been half meat and half vegetable.
Most of the meat dishes on the table were ones he didn't like, but Yun Chu liked them.
Unfortunately, Yunchu left the palace after lunch, so he mostly ate dinner by himself. In order to prevent people from seeing that he had ordered the imperial kitchen to prepare more meat dishes specifically for Song Yunchu, he had to eat a few bites even if he didn't like it.
Jun Liluo sat down and just started eating when a eunuch came in to announce, "Your Majesty, Concubine Shu wants to see you."
Jun Liluo said: "Let her in."
Seeing Concubine Shu enter the imperial study, Chief Steward Li led the other palace servants out.
"Your Majesty, are you free now?"
"I just finished reading the memorial. What's up? Do you have something important to report? Stand up and speak."
After Jun Li Luo finished speaking, Concubine Shu did not stand up. She just looked up at him and moved her lips, as if she was considering how to start the conversation.
Seeing her hesitant, Jun Liluo narrowed his eyes slightly, "Why are you hesitating? Just say whatever you want to say. There's no outsider here."
"Your Majesty, I am here to apologize to you and also to ask you for a favor."
Concubine Shu took a deep breath and finally said, "Can I receive the monthly salary for the next few months in advance?"
