Chapter 413 Tapestry

 In the palace, it is finally time to celebrate the Chinese New Year after Empress Dowager Ci Rui’s affairs have come to an end. This winter is really cold, with snow or sleet coming every now and then.

Shen Chuliu is looking at the things sent by the Bureau of Services and Services. Among the people who come, there happens to be brocade.

 Zhi Jin lowered his head nervously.

Shen Chuliu looked at the things delivered, and the steward explained: "Isn't it extremely cold this year? The slaves took it upon themselves to make a few sleeves for you. They happened to have some good leather and some scraps. , I can’t make other big items, so I just want to make sleeves. If the queen doesn’t mind, just wear it for fun.”

Another manager disliked her for not being able to speak, saying something about the sidelines...

The two stewards responded, took their things, and left with a lot of thanks.

 But after he finished speaking, he got stuck.

 Mama Li said.

 It’s just slow everywhere.

 When the weather got a little warmer, it was already fifteen.

Jimei sighed and went to get it.

 Everything is ready for the New Year.

 So, the sixteen little beetles of the empress do not count as those two. To put it bluntly, those two would not dare to accept them. If they do, it will be troublesome.

 

Qi Genxiu frowned slightly and said, "Zhu'er will have a successful year. It's time for enlightenment."

 Eighth Prince couldn't pick up the call.

Wen Chongrong responded quickly.

 So those two people only listened to Nanny Huang and had nothing to do with the other managers.

 There will be no lanterns for the New Year this year, nor promotions to the harem.

Shen Chuliu also had a serious look at the Eighth Prince after a few months.

 There are also those who should wear filial piety in the clan.

But Shen Chuliu looked at them coldly, and Queen Mother Li and Zhen Chongyi looked much better. Since these two are like this, it means that the Ninth Prince is much better.

  She also knew that her family had sent money to Shen Gengyi, and now she was not having a hard time. So Brocade keeps the money himself. You have to make some plans for yourself no matter what. Shen Chuliu rewarded the Secretary and Service Bureau, so naturally he also had to reward the kitchen and the cooks of Ruiqing Palace.

 The emperor was also happy and gave generous rewards to the children.

On the 15th day of the lunar calendar, things are even more simple, and even the reward of palace lanterns is not given this year.

However, the ancient New Year is not a normal year after all. Even if it is shortened, it is still busy.

That’s not silver, it’s gold!

Of course, since the four girls who were brought out to deliver things saw this, they had to reward others more.

I didn’t dare to look at it after leaving Cuiyunxuan. I didn’t open it until I returned to the Service Bureau.

 That is to say, six stewards are divided into sixteen little beetles.

 Her face seemed to be calm, but her eyes were dark.

Anyway, everyone knows that this empress’s code of conduct is that I will not be merciful when it is time to reward you, but if you give me any trouble, then you will die.

 After a while, he took out three cloth bags.

"It's all as it should be. Thank you, Madam. Thank you very much, Madam." The steward continued.

This department is a little tired, but it is extremely practical.

Brocade went back with three taels of silver, as well as the monthly silver coins of the past few months, which added up to two taels.

"Okay, he's not feeling well. Don't worry about it. You can take good care of him." The emperor waved his hand.

Everyone likes this style of work neatly, and I don’t feel uneasy when collecting cash.

 45.142.113.216

 The Ninth Prince indeed seemed to be more energetic than the previous days, and he earnestly expressed his greetings and New Year greetings.

Same, I'm still in my filial piety period, and I don't have the heart to play with these things.

“Is Grandma Huang’s daughter about to go out? What a good thing.”

 At this time, Shen Chuliu was looking at Wen Chongrong.

The two stewards laughed at that time: "Oh, my lady is really... Oh, my lady is so happy, I will be happy to serve you!"

 The palace is filled with white and blue.

 Princes all say auspicious words, and the sixth prince is naturally a sharp talker.

Shen Chuliu smiled: "It's good to make a sleeve with scraps. I don't care about it. It's a good thing that you think of me. Send me plums and take the reward. When the new year is over, tell them to take it and celebrate the New Year. I have been working non-stop here for a year."

 In the first month, you have more time to rest.

When the princes were greeting the emperor and empress Dowager Li for New Year greetings, the eighth prince followed them blankly.

 This year’s Chinese New Year is still the same as in the past, except that the time spent on entertaining guests has been reduced.

  After everyone had finished the feast, some of them dispersed in low spirits.

 The tenth prince was not able to speak well, so he was replaced by the wet nurse.

Immediately, the two nuns opened the last bag filled with small silver peanuts and counted three taels to the four of them. Exactly one is one tael.

"The last one is for the embroidery ladies. Of course, we can't control everyone. We just say that those who have done embroidery work for our ladies this year will be rewarded. Look at the cold weather, this little girl The things we gave you were very cold, so if there’s too much, I’d just ask them all to eat some fruit.”

But there are two of them who are specifically responsible for the queen's affairs. There are also thirty embroiderers in the queen's house. It is the queen's rule that they can be used or not.

First I looked at the one of Aunt Huang. Tsk, there were two things inside, a jade pendant made of topaz, which was very exquisite. In fact, it is packed in bags.

 The Eighth Prince was anxious for a moment and could not even thank the Marquis En.

He handed a small one to the steward: "Look, Aunt Li, this is for Aunt Huang. During this year, we have His Highness the Sixth Prince in our Cuiyun Pavilion, so you won't have to worry about it. Also for our master." Thank you Aunt Huang for your good arrangements."

 Opened another bag and found sixteen little beetles inside.

Those four people, two each, only took up eight. There are still eight left.

“No, as expected, Empress Jing Zhaoyi is the most generous.” As she said that, she put the things back in envy.

Several girls hurriedly thanked each other. They all wanted to establish a good relationship, so naturally they would not say anything else.

As he said that, he handed another big one to her: "This is to thank you and the managers. They are busy with many things this year and they still rush here."

"This is a leather that has been made. It's just too small to be used for anything else. Look at the quality, Madam..."

 Because the emperor is still wearing Xiao, it is necessary to keep everything simple this year.

 The princes have not yet taken off their mourning clothes.

There is also a gold bracelet, a serious shrimp whisker bracelet with a heavy hand.

However, the biggest advantage of who is sending whom is a gift is not a secret, it is that everyone understands it tacitly.

 The last bag is the largest, but it also represents the least valuable.

Wen Chongrong stood up to thank him.

“Take it, this is from Cuiyunxuanli. It’s a good thing to keep it. I’ll be blessed for a whole year.”

 Of course, it is impossible to be promoted. How can anyone do this so brazenly during the period of filial piety?

I'm afraid that she won't be promoted to the harem until the anniversary of Queen Mother Ci Rui's death.
