My money-loving little lady

Chapter 176 Gift-Giving Session

Then, she continued to return to her seat, pretending that nothing happened. However, the emperor and queen in the palace could no longer sit still. Sima Ruozhao quickly turned her calculating eyes. After a while, she looked up.

He drank wine from a wine glass, and then pretended to have a discomfort in his throat and coughed a few times to signal his presence.

Prince Ling in the audience also noticed something strange about his mother, but he didn't know what the reason was. Therefore, he just assumed that his mother was feeling unwell or had something less important to tell him.

That's it. Seeing this, although Sima Ruozhao was a little anxious, he was also very helpless. He could only continue to pretend that nothing was wrong, listening to the show and drinking. At this time, Jing Rongyao had already marked these two people in his heart.

Attached is an invisible ribbon.

"No matter what, it's better to stay put for now." Jing Rongyao murmured to himself. Not long after, some soups and vegetables were served outside. This Queen Mother's palace banquet was different. It was different from the previous Queen's banquet.

The banquet held was much better. Regardless of the food, at least she could eat enough, unlike before when she couldn't even eat enough.

After that, nothing too unexpected happened at the banquet. Except for three or two palace maids and concubines making secret glances at the emperor, there wasn't anything worth seeing. The banquet came to an end soon, and the ladies thanked each other for their gifts.

Of course, the first gift to the emperor was of course the emperor. First of all, everyone knows the emperor’s first gift, which was a life-size Buddha statue made of pure gold. This process took a lot of time and energy, but it was indeed very important to the Queen Mother.

The second gift is the Sichuan brocade embroidery picture of hundreds of phoenixes, which was woven by hundreds of embroiderers for several months. This picture was embroidered based on a painting by a long-lost painter, and it is very special.

It is so precious that it is said that it took ten batches of embroiderers in the palace to create it.

After that came the gifts from the queen and the concubines. Although the queen's gift was not as expensive as the emperor's, it was still very heroic. It was a double-sided embroidered screen, with fresh and elegant wintersweet pictures embroidered on the screen, and on the other side

It was ingeniously embroidered with many interesting flower and bird patterns. Moreover, when the screen was just opened, Jing Rongyao and others could vaguely smell the faint fragrance. This must be the secret.

Sure enough, the queen proudly showed her gift to the Queen Mother and introduced to everyone, "Although my concubine's gift is not as luxurious and thoughtful as your majesty, and I don't have much knowledge, this is a pattern I carefully selected to accompany you.

It was made by the embroiderer's supervisor. The craftsmanship of hiding spices in the wood in this painting is still a unique craft of Wencai, a carpenter from Chen Concubine's hometown. The carpenters in Mocheng usually paint the wood evenly on the batch of wood that the guests need.

Suitable spices, and then exposed to the sun hundreds of times. If it is cloudy the next day, they will rush to dry the wood manually, otherwise mold will easily grow, and the wood will be scrapped.

In order to enhance the persistence of the fragrance, careful craftsmen will gently dig out a small hole in the precious wood they prepared. Then put the ground exclusive spices inside, and then seal the wood hole in a special way.

Continue to store and dry.

After going back and forth like this many times, it turned into an interesting work. First of all, it is difficult for others to find. Secondly, it also highlights the very elegant mood of the guests. Inside this screen, there are those specially designed by the concubines.

The craftsmen add a soothing incense that helps regulate sleep. Queen Mother, as long as you install this screen in your bedroom, it will always be good for your sleep in the long run."

After listening to her chattering a lot, the Queen Mother just nodded and did not make any reaction. This made Queen Sima feel a little embarrassed and retreated angrily. Then, headed by Concubine Li, they started to go up to give gifts. Everything was very different.

Not bad, precious colored treasures, silks and satins, artistic ornaments and so on. It was a bit novel when it came to Concubine Hui's place, but it was just that there was no medicine bag on the table. Everyone couldn't help but sneer when they saw her taking out such shabby things, and the Queen even more

He secretly mocked.

"It's useless. What do I think she can do with it? It's no wonder that she has not been favored by His Majesty for so many years. The rewards she received recently are probably subsidized to those servants."<

/p>

Others were also speechless about her gift, but Concubine Hui didn't react at all. She just respectfully explained the ingredients and how to use it, then sat down in her seat as if nothing had happened.

"These people are all stupid pigs." Jing Rongyao sneered. As a discerning person, she clearly saw that her grandmother's favorite was Concubine Hui's treasure medicine bag. She didn't even look at other people's things.

She can just take it apart and read Hui Fei's.

Some people are useless and will only be fascinated by these false things for the rest of their lives!
