Chapter 47 Silk
Lou Li said that Emperor Xuan of Yan took the Queen Mother of Southern Wu as his Consort, and retained Zhu Huaishu's title of Princess Rongyang, and also retained her title of Princess Ronghua for Zhu Huaizhen.
Next, there will probably be a palace banquet.
Concubine Chen was going to take Princess Rongyang with her to face the civil and military officials and their families of Southern Yan, and at the same time, save the face of Emperor Xuan of Yan and slap the face of the last emperor of Southern Wu.
Sure enough, an old maid came and brought the fabric after passing the message.
When wealthy families make new clothes, they use the fabrics and measure the sizes.
Zhu Huaizhen took a look, slapped the old lady in the face with all his strength.
"You lowly creature, you really think you are Princess Ronghua. Your country has already been destroyed!" The old nanny cursed indignantly.
It turned out that the fabric was coarse linen, while the old nanny was wearing fine linen.
Before, Chen Mingan advised her to save money, and she tried wearing coarse linen.
However, in less than half a day, the tender skin was tortured and covered with red rashes, which were itchy and painful, so she had to give up.
She complained about this to Chen Mingan, but Chen Mingan said sarcastically that Princess Ronghua was indeed as precious as gold and jade.
Damn it, Zhu Huaizhen has already endured enough hardship, what else does she want?
However, Zhu Huaizhen was in love at the time and did not think much about it, nor did he refute it.
Otherwise, with her current temperament, she would have jumped up and down long ago.
"Go back and report to your old lady. If the Duke Dingguo's Mansion can't afford the floating gold, you can just say it." Zhu Huaizhen raised his chin slightly, his eyes indifferent, like a proud peacock.
So the old nanny went back and exaggerated the story, spreading the story of Princess Ronghua's extravagant lifestyle.
However, no one will provide her with floating brocade.
After much thought, Zhu Huaizhen could only ask Lou Li for help.
"Zhen'er, does it have to be Fuguangjin? I think Xiangyunsha is also good." Lou Li pondered for a moment.
"Ali, Xiangyunsha is more expensive, okay." Zhu Huaizhen couldn't help rolling his eyes.
The Floating Light Brocade was a tribute from the Gaochang Kingdom. It was made of purple seawater that was not stained by it, and the five-colored silk was woven into dragons and phoenixes.
Xiangyunsha, produced in Lingnan, is as soft as fragrant clouds, and its rustling sound is pleasant to the ear. Furthermore, Xiangyunsha is further subdivided into grades, such as heavy satin Xiangyunsha, Guanle crepe Xiangyunsha, pearl satin Xiangyunsha, plain crepe satin Xiangyunsha, tortoise pattern Xiangyunsha, mulberry satin Xiangyunsha, and flower vine Xiangyunsha.
"Then let's go for heavy satin and fragrant cloud gauze." Zhu Huaizhen smiled, her dimples swirling.
Therefore, Chen Mingan came personally to pick up Zhu Huaizhen and attend the palace banquet.
Zhu Huaizhen used heavy satin Xiangyun gauze to cut a butterfly, flower, smoke and phoenix tail skirt. It was elegant, noble and bright, but without any trace of ostentation.
But the old lady said a lot of bad things about Zhu Huaizhen in front of Chen Mingan, saying that Zhu Huaizhen even wanted to wear brocade on a pair of socks. Mrs. Chen naturally chimed in and said even more outrageous things.
As a result, Zhu Huaizhen's hairpin was made of small-leaf red sandalwood and inlaid with cloud-shaped crystals.
"Zhenzhen, you can't be too plain and elegant, otherwise you will spoil His Majesty's mood." Chen Mingan raised his hand to touch Zhu Huaizhen's rosewood hairpin inlaid with flowing cloud patterns, but Zhu Huaizhen dodged.
"Chen Mingan, just help me add another gold hairpin." Zhu Huaizhen smiled like a flower, his eyes moving.
Zhu Huaizhen would never tell Chen Mingan that this rosewood hairpin inlaid with flowing cloud pattern crystal was carved by Lou Li himself.
Chen Mingan is a person who thinks a lot and is cautious in his actions.
He looked at the old lady's black gold satin, Madam Chen's soft smoke silk, Gao Yan'er's moonlight brocade, Princess Pingyang's floating light brocade, and Princess Xincheng Zhao Lian'er's pearl gauze, and then bought a gold-inlaid pearl and gemstone peach and bat pattern hairpin for Zhu Huaizhen.
Haha, it looks good, but it has no special features.
