The imperial concubine favors the crown of the harem

Chapter 26: Choosing Materials

"Yes."

Now, Chunqi is much more energetic than before.

The young master has just entered the palace, and she can personally sew pajamas for His Majesty, it seems that she is really a holy family member.

I just opened the cabinet door and rummaged after looking through it carefully.

"My lord, we didn't bring any materials into the palace, and what we brought were all women's cloths, what should we do?"

Lin Wanyi thought about it, and called Xiao Luzi to ask.

"Is it the Inner Court Department who is in charge of fabric sewing in this palace?"

Xiaoluzi nodded, and then replied respectfully.

"In the Inner Court Department, there are six storerooms and seven storerooms for the second room. The fabrics are in charge of the satin storehouse, and the embroiderers are in charge of the embroidery. If there is something to be mended, it is taken to the sewing room."

"It's true in the palace, a piece of pajamas can involve so many people."

"That's natural. Whether it's the master or the palace people in the palace. Every spring, summer, autumn and winter, new clothes are ordered. If there is a reward, it can't be delayed. So it looks like it's just a piece of clothing, but the people involved in it The sea has gone."

Xiaoluzi explained.

"When I was in the Prime Minister's Mansion, there were also embroiderers, but their craftsmanship was not as good as that of the Da Furen."

After finishing speaking, he deliberately picked up the pomegranate sachet that he was hanging on his body, and "showed off" to Xia An and Xiao Luzi.

"Look, this is what Da Furen rewarded me."

Xia An has seen it many times, so she is used to it, but Xiao Luzi took it and took a closer look, with surprise in his eyes.

"The madam's craftsmanship is really good, the slave looks better than the embroiderers in the palace."

After hearing other people's praise of the eldest lady, Chun Qi was also very happy.

"Then if I want to sew pajamas for His Majesty, I should go to the satin warehouse for materials, right?"

"Returning to the young master, it is true to say so, but the slave has never done similar errands before, so I am not sure."

He originally wanted to say that he could ask Eunuch Qin, but he swallowed the words, for fear of making the little master worry again.

Lin Wanyi has a plan in her mind, and it seems that she still needs to invite the treasurer of the satin warehouse to come over.

So he ordered to Xiaoluzi.

"You are walking fast and your face is familiar. Now go to the satin storehouse. If the treasurer is here, please invite him over. If the treasurer is not here, just ask, is there any Shuiguang brocade from Jiangnan?"

"Shui Guangjin?"

"Well, the fabric is made of water silk unique to the south of the Yangtze River. It is comfortable and elegant in color. It is most suitable for pajamas."

"The slave has written it down, so let's go find it."

While talking, he trotted away, and Chunqi approached Lin Wanyi and asked curiously.

"My lord, isn't he afraid that he will go to the Inner Court Department and talk to Eunuch Qin again?"

Lin Wanyi smiled and said indifferently.

"He was Eunuch Qin's apprentice in the first place, and it's normal to contact Eunuch Qin. It's just that I don't like him spreading my words to the outside world. If he can keep his mouth shut, it would be a good one."

These days, she took a closer look and found that this path is really good.

He is not very old, but he is considered an "old man" in the palace, but he has not acquired any habit of flattering and bullying.

It seems that this Eunuch Qin is really nice to him.

Therefore, in the palace, I still kept a little bit of my original intention.

It's just that Eunuch Qin really thinks highly of her so much?
Lin Wanyi was a little surprised that the apprentice who had taken care of her for a long time was sent to her.

There is a small way, and it is somewhat convenient for the Inner Court Secretary, so she will not really give up the small way.

Chun Qi had the same expression as before, but through this incident, Xia An faintly felt that the little master was a little different from before.

In the past, she would not have cared about these things.

Why did she seem to be more concerned about His Majesty's matters after she came out of Linzhi Palace today.

Thinking of what she said about her pregnancy some time ago, Xia An felt a little uneasy.

Seeing that Lin Wanyi was still as calm as before, she didn't say much.

After a while, Xiao Luzi rushed back from the Inner Court Division.

Followed by an elderly nanny, not to mention tidying up neatly, even the clothes are ironed very smooth, it looks like a person with face.

"The maidservant, the head of the Inner Court Treasurer Fan Baoju, has seen the young master, please let the young master be safe."

It's no wonder that the head of Duanku dresses up like this.

Reaching out and not slapping the smiling face, Lin Wanyi still needs others, so naturally she won't put on airs.

So he said with a gentle smile.

"Nurse Fan invites you, Chun Qi, to serve tea to you."

That Nanny Fan was a little taken aback, and was about to refuse, but Lin Wanyi continued.

"I'm just a baby in the palace, and many things are still unclear, so I need to talk to the nanny a few more words."

"My lord is being polite. If that's the case, then the servant will be disrespectful."

He reached out to take the tea brought by Chunqi, sat on the round stool, and chatted with Lin Wanyi who was sitting on the open window.

"I heard from Xiaoluzi, the servant girl, is the master Shui Guangjin?"

"Well, Your Majesty ordered me to make pajamas. After thinking about it, I found that the material was good, so I searched for it by a small path."

"Unfortunately, last year's Shuiguang brocade was only tributed to six pieces, all of which were rewarded by His Majesty. This year's has not yet been delivered, so the satin warehouse does not have this material."

Then he raised his hand, and the maids waiting outside the door came in, all holding different materials in their hands.

"Since it was made for His Majesty's pajamas, the servants boldly chose some. The material is soft, glutinous and silky, and the color is also elegant. I think it is not much different from Shuiguangjin."

The material was delivered to Lin Wanyi, which was really eye-catching.

It has to be said that the goods in this palace are better than those outside.

If they were sold outside, each one would be worth a lot, and some were even rarer than Shuiguangjin, but Lin Wanyi took a look and didn't choose it.

Finally, he pointed to a simple silk brocade and said.

"Just keep this one."

Others don't understand why they keep the most common one when there are better and more expensive ones.

On the contrary, Madam Fan from Duanku couldn't help but give Lin Wanyi a high look, admiring her a little more.

"Young master has a good eye. This silk brocade looks ordinary, but it is the coolest and absorbs sweat. Seeing that summer is coming, if it is made into pajamas for His Majesty to wear, it will definitely be comfortable."

She has been in charge of the satin warehouse for many years, and she is the most clear about what kind of material has what kind of use.

Originally, I didn't intend to bring it, because Xiu Zuo never chose this silk brocade when making pajamas for His Majesty, but I thought that since Lin promised to choose Shuiguang brocade, he would probably be interested in this silk brocade.

Unexpectedly, the two really thought of going out together.

Lin Wanyi had seen this kind of silk brocade when she was at her grandfather's house.

My grandmother is also good at knitting and embroidery. She said that this silk brocade can be used as a substitute for Shuiguang brocade.

Ordinary people can't afford Shuiguang brocade, so they will use this silk brocade instead. Naturally, the effect is not as good as Shuiguang brocade, but it's not much worse.
