In fact, the embroidered mother back then, I did beg the Queen Mother, and I also found out that someone was jealous of her and secretly framed her. But at that time that Xiu Niang had already been beaten to death in Shen Xing Si, the queen mother did not want things to make a big deal, after all, such things happen every day in the palace, but a slave does not need to bother to suppress it. Just found a reason to punish the steward and the person in charge of Xiulan Pavilion. It is precisely because of this that I can use the name of the embroidered woman.

Yi Zhaorong stroked his chest: "In this way, you have been wronged."

I shook my head helplessly: "This is the end of the matter, so I can save my life. I can think of who framed me, but what's the use? It's the best to be alive now." I touched my face and said, "My Shen Xingsi's face was also broken, and the empress made me wear a veil for fear of scaring others."

Hui'er screamed for me with a full face, but as a court lady, she naturally knew that such things were too common, but she was angry in her heart.

Yi Zhaorong turned his head and thought for a while: "In this case, if I go to the emperor to mention this matter again, maybe I can let you out." She was silent for a moment: "It's just..."

I looked at her. Back then, the queen mother asked me to deal with it all. Naturally, Shen Xiyao would not ask anything for an embroiderer, so he didn't know that the embroiderer had died. At this time, in the name of the embroidered lady, Yi Zhaorong mentioned this to Shen Xiyao again. If he wants to come, Shen Xiyao will allow him to leave Fansi and go back to Xiulan Pavilion or other things. It is not difficult.

But at this time Yi Zhaorong was unclear, and I was a little worried.

"The matter of the year involved the queen mother and the queen mother. At this time, the emperor would not want anyone to mention it." She thought for a while and finally said.

I looked at her: "Is this your mother?"

Yi Zhaorong sighed: "Last autumn, the Queen Mother committed her old and old illnesses together, and it has never been better. It is hard to get through the winter, but now it seems that there is no improvement. The hospital is also helpless, saying and saying everything. Can't get through this spring." Her expression was sad: "For this reason, the emperor is very anxious. In addition, the queen empress has been recuperating on the Yaotai of Pengdao, and she has not seen it for more than a year. Others say that the empress is also It's almost gone."

Her voice gradually lowered: "The emperor can't sleep at night now, and he doesn't think about eating or drinking, and he has to do national affairs during the day, and he was tired the other day."

She said something briefly, but I was shocked to hear it. The queen mother is critically ill, and has always claimed that I am recuperating in Yaotai, Pengdao. It seems that Shen Xiyao's burden is not small.

"I'm still thinking and thinking that one day I can go out and embroider a picture of peonies for the empress dowager, and embroider a picture of a hundred flowers for the empress dowager, to thank them for their kindness." I shed tears. The star fell for the queen mother and for herself.

Yi Zhaorong gave Hui'er a wink, Hui'er handed me a veil, and I wiped my eyes to look at her: "Then you won't bother with me, I will survive here."

Yi Zhaorong thought for a while: "Don't worry, wait for me to find a chance."

I leaned over and bowed to her: "Thank you, Niang Niang."

Yi Zhaorong stood still for a moment, and finally left. I heard Hui'er ask her in a low voice, "Master, but an embroidered lady who has committed a crime, why bother?"

Yi Zhaorong’s voice came from afar: "I don’t know, but subconsciously asked me to help her. Moreover, I think this Xie Niang is very familiar. Forget it, just treat it as a good deed. She is also wronged after all. Wouldn't it be better to leave here?"

"Niangniang, you are kind-hearted." Hui'er smiled and said, "It is also the blessing of this Xie Niang. I will meet the Queen Niang first and then you."

"Don't talk nonsense, have you forgotten about Lady Li?"

"The mother forgive the sin, the mother forgive the sin."

...

The voices of Hui'er and Yi Zhaorong were getting further and further apart. I leaned on the railing. For some reason, my heart that should have been joyful was as heavy as a lead.

After about half a month, Yi Zhaorong never came here again, but when I was already frustrated and thought she was unwilling to help, she came slowly.

That day, I just washed my long hair in the lake in the backyard, hanging wet behind my head, sitting in the yard, waiting for the sun to dry my hair. Because it was midday, almost lunch, thinking that no one would come, so I didn't wear a veil.

The door "creaked", the door was actually only half-hidden, and it didn't need to be opened if it came in. But when Yi Zhaorong comes, the maid will push the door first. Maybe, this is Yi Zhaorong reminding me that she is here.

I ran back into the house in a hurry, put on my veil, and walked out.

"Xie Niang," Yi Zhaorong smiled like a pool of spring water, and my heart fell because of the smile that had been suspended for half a month.

"See Niang Niang." I gave a slight salute, and there was respect for my identity at this time in my lowered eyes.

"Be flat." Yi Zhaorong said and entered the house, and I hurried to follow.

"Hui'er, you stay at the door, if there is any movement, tell me quickly." Yi Zhaorong said to Hui'er.

Hui'er went out according to the words, and I looked around, but there was no tea bowl, so I had to say, "Please forgive me, I have nothing here, I can't entertain my mother."

Yi Zhaorong didn't mind, she looked around casually, with pity in her eyes.

"I'm here this time because I want to ask you for help." Yi Zhaorong said.

I was startled, and there was a small disappointment in my heart, but then I thought about it, maybe she was testing me, so I hurriedly said, "Please give me your instructions."

"In half a month, there will be a banquet in the palace, and the clothes from the Shangyifang are beautiful, but there is nothing new. I want to cut a six-diamond skirt by myself, but I don’t know how to embroider it. That’s how I think of you. ."

My heart is like a mirror, knowing that just a few words, Yi Zhaorong will definitely not be able to believe or help me with just my words. The harem is struggling. As a favorite consort, she doesn't know how many eyes are staring. Therefore, she has to give it a try to see if I am an embroiderer as I said.

I put on a light smile and said, "I don't know what color the lady's skirt is, and what is the name of the banquet."

Yi Zhaorong thought for a while and said: "The emperor is practicing for General Zhengbei. This season is too hot at noon, so the dinner is scheduled. In the Luyun Kaiyue Palace." She paused and said, "Lou The Yunkai Moon Palace is by the Feilong Pond, the most atmospheric and cool place."

In fact, I am very familiar with Opening the Clouds and Opening the Moon Palace. Back then, Shen Xiyao often took me there to enjoy the coolness. At the time when the moon was in the middle of the sky, facing the vast waves of clear water in the Feilong Pond, it was really refreshing and refreshing. All the irritability seemed to be blown away by the breeze of the lake. Up general. And as a place for banquets, it is also very suitable. Because Luyunkaiyuedian is wide, the floor of the hall is paved with white marble and decorated with white fine snails. From a distance, it looks like a fairy cave under the bright moonlight.

Although I am familiar with it, I cannot show it in front of Yi Zhaorong. Just make a fascinating look and listen carefully to her description.

"Does the empress have any ideas of her own?" I asked softly.

Yi Zhaorong looked at the blue sky outside the window, as if muttering to herself: "If you talk about the beauty and grace, who can pass the Liu Fei in the palace. And bright and gorgeous, naturally Li Fei is the best. He Fei is the most dignified person. This The three of them have taken up all kinds of styles, and it is hard to beat them no matter how I dress up." She said, lowering her head.

I smiled slightly: "The empress is wrong. If the empress is not outstanding and unique, how can the emperor give the empress blue eyes?" I said and looked at her and said, "I think, the gentleness of the empress should be A place where the emperor's attention."

Yi Zhaorong's eyebrows jumped, as if there was a faint sadness in her heart, but she still had a soft smile: "I hope so." She looked at me: "Xie Niang, do you have a way?"

I lowered my eyes and thought for a while and said: "When I was an embroiderer, I saw the clothes of those empresses. The willow concubine empresses like to wear various colors of green, with gold and silver, goose yellow, lake blue, and lilac purple silk threads embroidered with various patterns. She wears it like a weak Liu Fufeng, with a unique style."

Yi Zhaorong nodded: "Because the emperor praised Concubine Liu for her grace and grace, she would often choose green."

I went on to say: "Li Fei Mingyan, I heard that her character is also straightforward and she likes bright colors, so her dresses are mostly sprinkled with gold and lacquer. Also because those materials usually have their own patterns, embroidering them is superfluous, and Li Fei likes luxurious jewelry, so embroidery is a common style."

Yi Zhaorong looked at me with surprise in his eyes.

I ignored her and continued: "As for Hefei, she has always been frugal, and her clothes are all light colors. She also seldom uses full embroidery on her embroidery, and mostly embroiders the Four Gentlemen's designs."

Yi Zhaorong couldn't help saying: "Yeah, in fact, he and the concubine were the first to seal the concubine, but they were very low-key, not at all like others.

In fact, I am not familiar with my concubine. She has a good reputation in the harem. People are always so indifferent, as if they have no interest in anything. However, she is the concubine who has followed Shen Xiyao for the longest time, so she cannot be viewed in a simple light. This is what I realized after I came back here and really saw the sinister harem. No one in this harem should be underestimated or underestimated.

When I said these things, my mind had already turned a few times, and I thought of how to help Yi Zhaorong.

"Do you know what the three women will wear?" I thought that since she came here, she should have inquired about it.

Yi Zhaorong pursed his lips and said, "At the Shangyi Bureau, Concubine Liu sent a tender willow-colored makeup and satin to embroider with colorful roses. What Li Fei sent was a red silk sprinkled with gold roses. Embroidered pink peony."

I was shocked, which shows that at this time Concubine Liu and Concubine Li both coveted the next position. In the absence of the queen, the concubine wore a peony dress, inevitably overstepping. The rose is like a peony, if you take a little effort to embroider, it can be no different from a peony. The peony is the floral aspect, without the Kawang peony, the natural floral aspect is the largest.

"Where is the wife and concubine?" I asked.

"I said to the concubine that the new clothes made by Wanshou Festival have not been worn, so I won't make new ones." Yi Zhaorong said in admiration: "I don't want my concubine to be so thrifty."

I smiled faintly. If there is a day to return to Kunning Palace, I am afraid that it is not Concubine Liu or Concubine Li, but this gentle and elegant concubine who can never stand out.

I looked at Yi Zhaorong, and slowly said: "I thought to myself that it is a dinner party, and when the flowers are in full bloom, I am afraid that the concubines will love the colorful dresses. The colorful roses of the willow concubine are naturally very beautiful. The concubine and the concubine will not be so elegant, after all, if she is too elegant in the Chinese clothes, she will appear stingy. She is a concubine, and she will definitely not make herself look bleak."

Yi Zhaorong nodded. I didn’t give her a chance to speak, and slowly smiled: “Everyone says that the emperor is the sun and the queen is the moon. The empress is the emperor’s favorite consort, and naturally the star shining by the moon. Then, let me make a starlight dress for the empress. Right."
