Chapter 172.
Seeing her lowering her head in deep thought, Lu Chen did not say anything to disturb her.
"Here comes the tea, here comes the tea."
Before seeing the person, you can hear his voice first. Yinling, who was just sent by the head aunt to pour tea, came in from outside, shouting.
"Sister, please have some tea." She placed the poured tea in front of Lu Chen and did not leave immediately. She stared at Lu Chen, wishing she could get closer to Lu Chen.
"Why are you looking at me?" Lu Chen asked curiously.
"Sister, are you better than aunt?"
Yin Ling stayed in the embroidery workshop all day. In her mind, the most powerful person was the aunt who was in charge of the embroidery workshop. But she just saw that even the aunt had to greet Lu Chen with a smile. She couldn't think of anyone else who could make the aunt treat him like this, except that he was even more powerful.
Lu Chen burst into laughter.
"What are you talking about? Get out of here!"
Yinling covered the back of her head and acted coquettishly to the aunt in charge: "No, aunt, good aunt, please, just let me stay here."
The head aunt was helpless with her, so she looked at Lu Chen apologetically, "I'm sorry to make you laugh, Miss Lu Chen. I spoiled this child too much on weekdays, so she doesn't know the rules. Please don't blame me, Miss Lu Chen."
"Nothing. I don't think my aunt would spoil others. Since she is willing to spoil her, she must have something extraordinary."
"Yes, Yinling is young, but she is quite talented in embroidery. I also intend to train Yinling to be my successor."
Lu Chen understood.
"Don't be fooled by Miss Lu Chen's laughter and joking appearance, but she is actually very reliable when it comes to serious matters. The pattern that the Empress gave me this time is just right for Yin Ling to help embroider."
It just so happened that the Empress's patterns were simple and Yinling's embroidery skills were also fine.
"What pattern? Auntie, do you mean I can embroider?" Yinling asked quickly, looking at the aunt in charge with surprise.
She had been sorting the embroidery threads for these days and her eyes were almost tired, but her aunt just wouldn't let her touch the embroidery needle, which made her feel really uncomfortable.
Now that my aunt has finally agreed, I must seize the opportunity.
Yinling's childish appearance amused the serious head aunt. She stretched out her old hand and tapped Yinling's forehead, "You."
"Auntie, can you show me the pattern to be embroidered now?"
Yinling was so happy that she was overjoyed.
"Okay, I'm scared of you. Here you go."
"Go, gather all the new embroiderers who have entered the palace this year. I will come right after."
The head aunt sent Yin Ling away, and then continued to say to Lu Chen: "What a coincidence, these New Year embroiderers have been practicing embroidery every day and have used up a lot of fabric. I believe they can also make a few clothes in a hurry. I hope they can help the imperial concubine."
Lu Chen didn't expect there would be an unexpected surprise, so he quickly agreed: "Of course, the queen will definitely agree when she knows about it."
"That's good, that's good."
Then she mentioned the suitable candidates. She had just asked Yinling to gather new embroiderers. She was afraid that Lu Chen would misunderstand that she was not devoted to Concubine Jin's affairs. At this moment, she deliberately explained: "There are a total of 20 newly selected embroiderers. Although they are new to the palace, they have no problem with embroidery. Miss Lu Chen can rest assured that they will not ruin the Empress's affairs."
"Yes, leave it to Auntie. My Lady and I will naturally feel relieved."
Lu Chen took a sip of tea, and when it was almost gone, she stood up and left.
"Then aunt, I won't stay long."
"Yes, Miss Lu Chen, take care." The aunt in charge also went out with Lu Chen and sent her to the outside of the embroidery workshop before turning around and going back.
The yard was already filled with embroiderers summoned by Yinling.
At this time, Concubine Niohuru had already informed all the palaces about this matter, and the concubines in each palace had mixed opinions about it.
Some people think that Yuying's action was a good deed, but others think that Yuying did it to please the emperor.
But after all, the masters of each palace kept the people under their control, and the matter went smoothly in the palace.
After all the busy work, it was completely dark.
At this moment, Yuying was in Changchun Garden and had just finished her meal with Kangxi.
After eating and drinking, Yuying had two chaise longues moved to the yard. She sat slumped on the chaise longue and looked up at the stars in the night sky.
Kangxi also followed her example and looked at the same sky as her.
When they first met, Yuying pretended to be polite in front of Kangxi, but after a long time, she could no longer pretend and her true colors were revealed.
Kangxi had never seen anyone so presumptuous in front of him. At the beginning, whenever Yuying did something slightly out of line, Kangxi would correct her with a frown, as if Yuying had committed some unforgivable crime.
But now.
Yuying's every move also affects Kangxi. In the past, Kangxi would never have done such a thing, just lying quietly on the couch and killing time.
Kangxi turned his head to look at Yuying, who was leaning against his sleeve. Yuying did not notice his gaze, but was staring at a certain spot in the sky.
The wind started to blow. Kangxi cared more about her health than Yuying did, and signaled Qingtao to get a blanket from the room to cover Yuying.
The two of them just sat together quietly, enjoying the evening breeze.
"What is Ying looking at?"
After a long time, Kangxi broke the silence.
[Look at the stars.]
