Chapter 9 Embroidery Workshop
The Chueisi Embroidery Workshop is located in Dongshi. It is not yet established, but it is famous. The clothes they make are unique and beautiful, and the materials are exquisite. They are very popular with the wives and girls of wealthy families in Wangjing.

"Oh, why did Mrs. Liang come here in person? If you have any requests, why don't you send someone to come to the shop? Why bother to visit the lady in person?" Suisi Embroidery Workshop often does the business of Qingquan Villa, and the people who came in Although the woman is wearing a veiled hat, she can tell who is coming by looking at the maid beside her.

Liu Jin got a signal from Li Shengxi, and walked in front of him, "Don't be poor, your lady Gu said that she has a new material, and specially asked our lady to come, where is it?"

The shopkeeper smiled heartily, "No wonder our lady came early today. It was for this reason. If you stay with today's lady, our lady is drinking tea upstairs. Please, lady."

After speaking, he asked someone to take Li Shengxi to the private room upstairs.

There were already people in the private room, and as soon as Li Shengxi entered, Nian Xi asked someone to close the door and sent someone to guard the door.

"Ms. Liang came early today." Nian Xi sat down because of Li Sheng.

Li Shengxi took off his veiled hat, put it aside, and then sat on the other side of the Luohan bed.

The East Market is prosperous and the West Market is lively.Nianxi and Yingxiao are in the East Market, wandering around the side of the rich and noble ladies; the other are in the West Market, wandering among the common people.At the same time, it is also responsible for monitoring the movements of the eastern and western cities.

"The new tea, Mrs. Liang, try it." Nian Xi pushed the teacup in front of Li Shengxi, and said in a low voice quickly: "Ruisheng's trouble came to Jingzhao Yin's residence, and he happened to meet Zhou Shuzhan, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment. , as expected, through the guidance of Ruisheng's words, Zhou Shuzhan should have 'guessed' that it is the envoy of flowers and birds."

"Miss Gu, you're being polite." Li Shengxi smiled lightly, holding the teacup lightly, "Is there any movement from Jing Zhaoyin?"

"When Ruisheng went to Jingzhaoyin's mansion, he only said that his daughter was lost, and did not mention the eunuch. The eunuch was brought up with Zhou Shuzhan later. And Zhou Shuzhan also pressed this matter. Jingzhaoyin saw that the eunuch was not involved, Facing the Zhou family again, I dare not disobey."

Li Shengxi nodded, and Nianxi led Li Shengxi to stand up again, and walked to a piece of cloth, "Miss Liang, take a look at this piece of silk and satin. This is a fashionable pattern. It is beautiful and expensive. It is used to make it." Clothes are the best."

She approached Li Shengxi and whispered in his ear: "Zhou Shutao will tell Zhou Shuzhan what happened later, and Zhou Shuzhan will definitely be able to guess what happened in Kangchengfang."

"It's really good." Li Shengxi raised his head, touching the material in front of his eyes, "Zhou Shutao will not tell the Zhou family what happened in Kangchengfang."

If that thing is done well, it is naturally meritorious.But obviously he didn't do that well, and almost offended Concubine Kang.It would be fine if he didn't pray that Concubine Kang would not reveal this matter, how could he still tell Zhou Shi eagerly.

Nianxi frowned, but saw Li Shengxi smiled, "The material is good, I want it, please ask Madam Gu to help me make two clothes, the pattern is still the same as before, but come and measure for me."

"How can it be? I have dealt with the lady so many times, why do I need to measure the lady's size?" Nian Xi caressed the material, his voice was extremely cheerful and hearty, but his expression was not.

"It's also simple, so let Concubine Kang tell Zhou Shi?"

"Princess Kang?"

"Well... I like this material very tight. Why don't you make two more? Just make different styles and different patterns." Li Shengxi nodded, his smile remained unchanged: "Yesterday, in a hurry, she met for a while. She didn't react. If someone reminded her a few words, wouldn't she not understand that she was being used as a gun. Concubine Kang has always been petty, so how can she see that others take advantage of her concern for Su Shaohua?

You must know that Kangchengfang was sealed off by Zhou Shutao yesterday. Although ordinary people can enter and leave without going through the gate, under such circumstances, ordinary people will not come in and out casually, and the news must be blocked a lot.West Market is far away from Kangcheng Square, and the news of Su Shaohua's broken leg was only half an hour, how did it reach Princess Kang so quickly? "

Concubine Kang was not a fool in the first place, otherwise she would not be able to win over Concubine Kang. In addition, Concubine Kang had their eyes and ears by her side, so it was really easy to stir up the flames with a few words.

When Concubine Kang came back to her senses, she would understand that she was being used as a gun. As for whose gun was being used, it would naturally depend on who the gun was aimed at.

Nian Xi's eyes lit up, she was always smart, and immediately understood what to do, "My subordinates understand."

Li Shengxi nodded, and returned to Luohan's bed, holding a teacup, looking at the scenery downstairs through the window.

Opposite the Chueisi Embroidery Workshop is a teahouse, which is in the business of ordering tea. During the national mourning period, the restaurant is not allowed to make a living. If there are noble people talking about things, they mostly go to the teahouse.

Li Shengxi looked at the man in the dark green official uniform who came out of the tea house, and remained silent.The man was very good-looking, and the dark green official clothes on his body gave him a feeling of "green bamboo ripples", "like cutting like learning, like cutting like grinding".

Both Liujin and Nianxi felt Li Shengxi's gaze.

Liu Jin looked at Rong Zhi, with regret on his face, "Six champions, who came from a poor family, had a great reputation. With his background and qualifications, he was very likely to be worshiped by Meng Taifu's family, but he became the eunuch's adopted son and was praised by scholars all over the world." Poke the spine."

Nian Xi looked contemptuously and disdainfully: "He wants to take the shortcut to the south, so who is to blame? Could it be that he didn't get any benefits from serving as an eunuch? He was in his early twenties, and others were still struggling in the Imperial Academy. It is the sixth grade, with infinite prestige. This person is resourceful and resourceful. He follows the eunuch's side and plots many tricks. He was also in the Northern Qi Dynasty. If it was in the Southern Jin Dynasty, his subordinates would kill such moths with their knives. Yesterday's plan failed, who I don’t know why this person planned it.”

Li Shengxi was noncommittal, but just made a point and said: "You should also pay attention to what you do and say, and don't be careless. By the way, ask someone to keep an eye on Rong Zhi."

Both said yes quickly.

Li Shengxi continued to drink tea, and asked in a low voice: "The national funeral is about to pass, did Mrs. Zhou come to ask you to make clothes for their girls?"

The eunuch was about to move people into the palace, but he didn't know what happened to the Zhou family.

"Yes. Several girls from Zhou's long house and side house came to order clothes. However, the subordinates find it strange that the clothes of the girls from the long house are more expensive than those of the girls from the concubine. Be good." Nian Xi guessed what Li Shengxi wanted to ask, and she said immediately: "The Zhou family seems to want to send the concubine daughter to the palace, as for the concubine daughter of the Zhou family, after the state funeral, they will discuss marriage. The Zhou family seems to have taken a fancy to the Marquis of Xiangcheng, and wants to marry off his daughter-in-law."

"Xiangchenghou?" Liu Jin was surprised, Zhou's thoughts really got bigger and bigger.
