Yun Wanwan's eyes widened as she looked at the large box Song Lan carried in. Such a large box? How heavy must the wedding dress be? "Ye Lan, did you come here today specifically to bring me the wedding dress?
"The imperial decree granting the marriage came in a hurry. The prince thought Miss Yun didn't have time to embroider her own wedding dress, so the prince prepared one for Miss Yun himself. The wedding dress is now ready. It took two months to make. After the embroiderer finished it, I delivered it to Miss Yun without stopping."
Two months? Yun Wanwan was stunned, suddenly remembering a few days ago when Rong Chengxuan, for some reason, insisted on holding her. Yun Wanwan was fine at first, but as Rong Chengxuan held her for too long, Yun Wanwan felt that the figure behind her was becoming increasingly intrusive.
Rong Chengxuan was not at all flustered when Yun Wanwan scolded him. He just hugged her and said that he wanted to take her measurements and make wedding clothes for her first.
But now Ye Lan had already said that the wedding dress had been made two months ago. I'm afraid Rong Chengxuan already knew her body measurements by then, so why bother with this? Sure enough, he was just talking nonsense again, and she believed it, letting herself be taken advantage of!
Since the person involved, Rong Chengxuan, was not present, Yun Wanwan could only take out her anger on his subordinates, and as a result, Ye Lan was glared at by Yun Wanwan for a while for no reason.
When you look at the box from a distance, you don't feel how big it is. But when you take a closer look, you will find that it is quite large. It seems that the box is made of fragrant wood. There is a faint fragrance of pear blossoms wafting out of it, which is refreshing.
Gu Pingge and Yun Yaoyao were also frightened by the appearance of the box. Gu Pingge had lived for so many years, and in Yun Wanwan's life, he had never seen anyone's wedding dress need such a big box to fit under the bed.
Even though Yun Wanwan had previously felt that she had seen many beautiful wedding dresses in modern times and had no expectations for her own wedding dress, she now felt a little bit excited.
Ye Lan was accompanied by Qingyao and Akui. They reached into the box and slowly took out some clothes, shaking them out for everyone to see. They moved very carefully, as if they were afraid of damaging them.
The color of the wedding dress is a very bright red, and the silk threads are extremely fine, as if they were brocade woven from threads carefully selected by the weaver. Even the quantity is controlled to be just right, not too much or too little. If there is a missing thread or an extra thread on it, it will look abrupt.
The crimson fabric was densely dotted with brilliant golden shimmers, almost as if it had been dusted with gold. Yun Wanwan wondered if Rong Chengxuan would be so ruthless as to grind gold bars into a wedding dress for a wedding. Still, the addition of these glittering gold items made the entire garment seem to shimmer, instantly elevating its elegance to a new level.
The red shirt worn outside is made of brocade, which is woven with gold, silver, copper threads, silk, spun silk, and feathers of various birds and animals, making the woven brocade more gorgeous, unique and beautiful. Green peacock feathers, which only the royal family can use, are also used on it, and the woven cloth is as thin as a cicada's wing.
The embroidered red robe was made of red fabric that shone with golden light, and a pattern of auspicious dragons and phoenixes was embroidered with twelve colored threads. When Yun Wanwan looked closely, she found that the embroidery was double-sided, but the pattern inside was covered up once the clothes were put on.
After knowing this secret, Yun Wanwan began to look carefully at other places. When she looked carefully, she noticed that the eyeballs of the dragon and phoenix were decorated with small black gems.
Even though Yun Wanwan didn't know much about gems, she could tell that it was made of obsidian. Obsidian was very common, but the obsidian used on this wedding dress was light red in color, which was the rarest type of obsidian.
The dragon scales and phoenix feathers on it are all made of finely cut cat's eye stones, embroidered one stitch at a time through needle and thread.
Rong Chengxuan had the red skirt and red pants made into one piece. This idea originated from Yun Wanwan's complaint to Rong Chengxuan about her three-layered clothes, making them difficult to put on and take off. Rong Chengxuan couldn't find another place to make changes, so he had to fix the red skirt and red pants, so that Yun Wanwan wouldn't have to wear two layers.
The red skirt was pure in color and was made wide. It was estimated to be twenty meters long. This reminded Yun Wanwan of the modern saying, "Three meters makes a barrel, six meters makes a flower, nine meters makes an immortal, and twelve meters makes it to heaven." How beautiful would this twenty-meter-long skirt look like when it turned in a circle?
Just how beautiful it was, Yun Wanwan didn't know yet, but she knew it would be incredibly heavy to wear. However, she had put a lot of thought into it, with lotus flowers embroidered on the corners of the robe, symbolizing good luck. The lotus flowers were so lifelike that it felt like lotus flowers were blooming with every step she took.
Not to mention the xiapei, which was decorated with filigree, inlay, carving, and kingfisher feathers, and there were hundreds of pearls on it as if they were free. It was almost blinding when viewed in the sun.
Qingyao and Akui also took out one by one, the descendants' bag, the silver for the seal, the magic mirror, and the Tianguan lock. Although these were made very simply, Yun Wanwan was not surprised after seeing the previous ones.
The most attractive thing is the phoenix crown.
The phoenix crown is crafted from pure gold, depicting nine dragons and nine phoenixes, each holding a string of jewels in its mouth. Pearl flowers adorn its lower parts. Over five hundred large gemstones are inlaid, and countless smaller ones are found. Each gemstone is adorned with pearl flowers and beads, with large pearls and smaller pearl flowers. The lower back section is decorated with three temples, each with a gold dragon bead inlaid on a jadeite background.
When Yun Wanwan saw that it would take the combined strength of A Kui and Qing Yao to take out the phoenix crown, she felt that her neck was in danger. If she wore it for a whole day, wouldn't her neck be broken?
The embroidered shoes were incredibly small and, of course, red. Yun Wanwan felt a bit tired of seeing so much red. But she was pleasantly surprised to find a tiny phoenix embroidered on the uppers. Given the shoe's small size, embroidering a full phoenix was quite challenging.
Furthermore, the phoenix's feathers were embellished with tiny gemstones. Yun Wanwan couldn't tell what kind of gemstones they were, but judging by Rong Chengxuan's style, they were definitely not cheap. However, when Qingyao turned over the soles of the shoes, Yun Wanwan discovered that they were also patterned. The pattern on the soles was also lotus, and there were some sparkling things on them. She didn't know what they were.
Yun Wanwan was slightly stunned when she saw it.
Seeing that Yun Wanwan seemed interested in the pattern on the sole, A Kui took the initiative to help her clear up her confusion.
